'A banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, 'A banana a day keeps the doctor away!'

Bananas ! Oh how good they are !

Linda,

  I am so glad you put this up. I've quit smoking and still 3 months later am craving those things. Getting bananas after the GAME ;)

Fresh raw fruits are my favorite !  Love them.  Watermelon, strawberries, bananas, kiwi, cherries,blueberries can't get enough !

Cucumbers:   High in water and low in calories, this cool, crisp veggie makes you feel fuller longer

High-fiber cereal:   Look for brands that include 5+ grams of fiber and 120 calories or less per serving.

Wild salmon:   A good source of vitamin D, Omega Rich fish

Turkey breast:   Lean protein helps slow the absorption of carbs into the bloodstream

Nonfat yogurt:   Rich in calcium, this healthy dairy product improves insulin sensitivity and helps control blood pressure.
