100% raw, natural, healthy – Paleo Cooking! No glutens, no dairy.

07 May

What a simple idea! Gluten free, dairy free and preservative free eating all from foods readily available in any store and even in nature. In fact the author refers to it as “eating for the 21st century hunter/gatherer”.

“The paleo diet is a natural, utterly-simple way of eating that promotes dramatic health benefits and weight loss results you will never achieve from any other diet, weight loss program or fad diet you have or haven’t yet come across.” I know Myra, and many of her regular readers, have found diet solutions that work. For years I have encouraged everyone to eat foods that not only provide sound nutritional values but also elevate and regulate your body’s on metabolism.

After connection with the author I decided to partner and make this available to readers here in in other places I write because I believe in these foods. In fact this is not a “diet” plan. It can, however, be used with many diet plans including my own. I need to be gluten free and Myra needs to be dairy free or at least watch her dairy intake.


Gluten free, dairy free, preservative free! Diet cook books glutens dairy preservative free

Gluten free, dairy free, preservative free!


For me glutens can be either a little discomforting or painful enough to take my joy. Having over 300 recipes to help both Myra and me avoid glutens and dairy is a real blessing. Being able to sleep without cramps from eating gluten rich foods makes my life much more enjoyable!


Anyway I have never participated in a “referral sale” program until this but these recipes are fantastic and help me avoid the foods I need to be aware of and still cook great tasting meals.

One thing I found very important to our readers is there is No Risk to your purchase as the author is providing you a 3 month, 100% money back satisfaction guarantee if you purchase today. If within this period you are not cooking delicious paleo friendly meals, the author will refund you in full!

If you, like I, need a gluten free diet or like Myra you need a dairy free diet I think this is worth a try. At least go check out the page – it’s a little hoaky looking page but the product is well worth it in my opinion. Yes, I get a little if you buy the set but I’m writing about them all over because it is not easy to find great diet recipe books like these with the right kind of meals for my needs.

Please let us know your results!

Potato skins have more vitamins. Or do they?

“Eat the skins they are full of vitamins,” my mom used to say. Likely it is your parents or someone in your young life said the same to you. Now that I am older, much older, I heard it again today from my wife Myra. Do potato skins really have more vitamins? Let’s see …

It is no secret potatoes are a good source of potassium. In fact a medium baked potato contains 926 mg of potassium which is higher than almost every other American vegetable except chard and lima beans. In fact we often think “eat a banana” when thinking of potassium intake but a medium baked potato contains double the amount of potassium as a medium banana.?Avocados contain more potassium than bananas! Potassium is probably potatoes’ greatest contribution to your body.

Potassium is essential for good heart function. Heart function is important – at least mine is. It also helps the body regulate blood pressure. Oddly enough that affect is somewhat nullified when the potatoes are fried and not baked.

But of all the vitamins and minerals, vitamin C being the most?prevalent?vitamin?in potatoes, is it true they are more concentrated in the skin than in the meat?

According to Potatoes.com and the Washington Potato Grower’s Association, “Despite the popular notion,?the majority of nutrients are not found in the skin, but in the potato itself. Nonetheless, leaving the skin on the potatoes retains all the nutrients, the fiber in the skin and makes potatoes easier to prepare.”

There you have it boys and girls! The skins are just like the potatoes but with more fiber.
