The Best Breakfast

Lately, I have been totally addicted to low-fat cottage cheese and berries for breakfast. This is so light, so filling, and so nutritious! You have to try it. I recommend fresh blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries all mixed together. Don't OD it on the berries, just use a medium size handful per 1/2 cup cottage cheese (one serving).

Some Words of Wisdom from Nick Kristof

From his latest Editorial A Scare, a Scar, a Silver Lining Nicholas Kristof shares his close call with cancer and some really good advice everyone should follow

"Stop smoking and avoid secondhand smoke. Slather on sunscreen and avoid tanning salons. Avoid charred meats. Check yourself over for lumps, changes or irregularities, whether in breasts or testicles or skin, and consult a doctor if you have doubts. Try to microwave food in glass or ceramic containers rather than plastic. Toss out plastic food containers that are marked 3, 6 or 7 at the bottom (unless they say “BPA-free”). Buy a radon detector to check radon levels around your house."
