Rich Cold-Water Fish: Anti-inflammatory Omega-3 Fats TOP CHOICE:  Wild Alaskan Salmon [...]

Eat Fish, Burn Fat

Introduce anchovies, herring, and sardines into your diet. Like wild Alaskan salmon, these tiny little fish will really ramp up your ability to shed fat! And they are rich sources of the omega-3 essential fatty acids. Anchovies can be mashed and added to sauces and salad dressing—the classic Caesar salad dressing owes its unique, incomparable flavor to the addition of anchovy paste or a few mashed anchovies. If you want to help your skin stay taut and toned on face and body, eat liberal amounts of these miracle fish. In addition to omega-3s, they contain DMAE which helps ensure adequate levels of the neurotransmitters that contribute to the maintenance of muscle tone—on face and body.

Anti-Inflammatory Tips For Navigating The Holiday Table – Part 2

A good way to tame your sweet tooth is to eat a grapefruit early in the day. In fact, a peeled grapefruit with no sugar added is an excellent way to tell your body it’s going to be a healthy food day! You’ll be amazed at how this works as the day progresses.

Still, it’s not realistic to think that we can totally avoid the occasional mouth watering treat, but a helpful strategy is to choose healthy appetizers hors d’oeuvres first. Fortunately, many of these foods are as health and beauty-promoting as they are delicious. Here are few of my favorites:
Anchovies
Asparagus
Sardines
