So many bright and gloomy moments worldwide throughout the year, right? But just like any other, we have to bid goodbye to it, and welcome the year 2016. The good news is that the modern technology has so much in store for us. Mind Body Green’s founder and CEO Jason Wachob compiled the wellness trends to watch for: 10 Wellness Trends To Watch In 2016The year 2015 was an exciting one in wellness. The healthy food “bowl” took over our breakfast, lunch, dinner, and our Instagram feed. Amanda Chantal Bacon’s adaptogen dusts (hello, Sex Dust) became a staple of our smoothies. We saw the rise of the fitness omnivore, partially fueled by the growth of Class Pass. Vegans got glam as our dear friends Rich Roll and Julie Piatt graced the New York Times Styles section, and vegan restaurants become some of the most desirable dining destinations, thanks to Gracias Madre and Crossroads in Los Angeles and Dirt Candy, Semilla, and by Chloe in New York. We expect 2016 to be even better for wellness enthusiasts as healthy living is sweeping the world. Here are 10 trends to watch over the next year: Read more… These wellness trends to watch for are REALLY something to get excited about. Looks like more and more people are seeking for a healthier lifestyle. This will hopefully solve the increasing number of chronic diseases worldwide. It would be way better if healthcare professionals will find a fix for the conditions that still do not have an effective solution, such as Alzheimer’s disease, cancer and more.

http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/comments/nutritionclubca.wordpress.com/970/ http://ifttt.com/images/no_image_card.png There are 1 billion smokers all over the world, which means that even non-smokers are susceptible to the harmful effects. The most exposure occurs in homes and workplaces. Secondhand smoke is indeed as harmful as direct, because people who are exposed to it are still inhaling the same chemicals that cause respiratory diseases, and even death. In fact, it causes about 41,000 deaths in the United States alone every year. But not only we are affected. A new study has shown that there are more pets at risk from second hand smoke than humans. Read more in this report by Sarah Knapton on The Telegraph: Pets at more risk from passive smoking than humans, find scientistsPets are at greater risk from passive smoking than humans because they spend more time in the home and closer to carpets where carcinogenic particles can linger. Read more… So aside from humans, there are more pets at risk from second hand smoke. People should really avoid smoking around other living things, or should just stop smoking, in general. It may not be an easy task, but starting today will save you years of life. Non-smokers, especially children, should avoid smokers as much as possible.

The majority of these cases come from meat, poultry, dairy products and eggs, which are all used in preparing meals for the festivities. There are so many myths about food poisoning that some of us may not know the explanation behind them or if they are actually true. Cathy Moir talks about it on The Conversation, posted on Daily Mail: You CAN thaw and refreeze meat – but DON’T rely on the sniff test: Expert busts common safety myths to help you avoid food poisoningIt’s that time of year when the fridge is fully stocked, the heat’s turned up high and the danger of food poisoning is ever present. So what is the best way to avoid it? Should you wash meat before cooking it? And it safe to re-freeze? Read more… These myths about food poisoning might have been some of the reasons why the cases continue to rise. Now that they have been debunked, hopefully, people will be more cautious about how they prepare raw products. We just won’t know when different types of bacteria will attack our body, so it’s always best to keep food and everything that’s near to it clean, such as the utensils, container, even the whole kitchen. Common symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, and abdominal pain that can last for up to weeks.

I don’t mean the basics — like ham and cheese on white or a PB&J — but the more ornate ones, like French dips, Cubans, and spicy Italians. I guess I figured that perhaps a deli had access to top-secret restaurant ingredients, or at the very least better-quality meats and toppings. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2015/12/30/sandwich-recipe-french-dip-au-jus-recipes-from-the-kitchn/ http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/comments/nutritionclubca.wordpress.com/966/ http://ifttt.com/images/no_image_card.png Ingredients

If you have a box of light, fruity, or even sweet red wine, this recipe is the one for you. Basing a cocktail on this style of wine assures a vibrant, deeply hued sangria-like flavor profile. Fruity, fresh, and tart, with a swift kick of ginger — this blackberry and pomegranate cocktail may also be the most crowd-pleasing of the pack. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2015/12/29/boxed-wine-pitcher-cocktails-red-wine-blackberry-ginger-cocktail-out-of-the-wine-box-cocktails/ http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/comments/nutritionclubca.wordpress.com/964/ http://ifttt.com/images/no_image_card.png Ingredients
Directions Cook pasta al dente according to package instructions. Save 2 cups of pasta water; some of this will be added back into the dish later. Strain and set pasta aside. Prepare an ice bath by filling a medium bowl halfway with water and ice cubes. Set aside. Heat a medium pot halfway filled with water until water boils. Blanch the peas for 2-3 minutes. Strain and immediately pour the peas into the ice bath (this prevents peas from overcooking and turning a yucky yellow-green). Add 2 1/2 cups peas (reserving 1/2 cup), basil leaves, garlic, walnuts, cheese and salt into food processor. Process for 2-3 minutes, drizzling in olive oil near the end. If needed, process for an additional minute until pesto reaches a smooth consistency. Add pasta and pesto back into pasta pot, and turn the heat to medium-high. Add the remaining 1/2 cup peas and pour 1/2 cup of pasta water (that you saved). Stir until pasta is well-coated with pesto. If the pesto is too thick for you taste continue to add more of the pasta water 1/2 cup at a time until it reaches the desired consistency. Garnish with fresh basil and grated parmesan to serve. NOTE: You can refrigerate leftover pasta water to revive leftover pesto pasta. Regular tap water will also work in a pinch!
