Natural Health and Longevity Resource Center Hidden Hazards of Microwave Cooking Recent research shows that microwave oven-cooked food suffers severe molecular damage. When eaten, it causes abnormal changes in human blood and immune systems. Not surprisingly, the public has been denied details on these significant health dangers. Extracted from NEXUS Magazine , Volume 2, #25 (April-May '95). Originally printed from the April 1994 edition of Acres, USA PO Box 8800, Metairie, Louisiana, 70011 USA Telephone: (504) 889 2100; Fax: (504) 889 2777 Back in May of 1989, after Tom Valentine first moved to St Paul, Minnesota, he heard on the car radio a short announcement that bolted him upright in the driver's seat. The announcement was sponsored by Young Families, the Minnesota Extension Service of the University of Minnesota: "Although microwaves heat food quickly, they are not recommended for heating a baby's bottle," the announcement said. The bottle may seem cool to the touch, but the liquid inside may become extremely hot and could burn the baby's mouth and throat. Also, the buildup of steam in a closed container such as a baby's bottle could cause it to explode. "Heating the bottle in a microwave can cause slight changes in the milk. In infant formulas, there may be a loss of some vitamins. In expressed breast milk, some protective properties may be destroyed." The report went on. "Warming a bottle by holding it under tap water or by setting it in a bowl of warm water, then testing it on your wrist before feeding, may take a few minutes longer, but it is much safer."

You carry not only the food but the entire kitchen (stove, pots, gaz...) so in the end, if it tastes bad or if you starve it's entirely your fault... On this page I'll suggest a few recipes for the hungry alpinist. Every so often planning is not enough, you have to make do with what's available. The very first thing I ever cooked in the mountain was rice with prunes and ham. We had been on a ski mountaineering tour in the Alps, sleeping in empty huts in winter. Although our tour was well planned by my more experienced friends, they hadn't foreseen the storm that moved in and kept us grounded for two days. We missed our train back home, but more importantly we ran out of food. On the last evening, the storm moved out and we decided to ski down at night, but first: "What do we eat ?" We pooled our resources: half bag of rice that had opened at the bottom of Jean's backpack, an open pack of ham forgotten from the previous week-end in one backpack pocket and half a bag of dried prunes. The ham had an ominous green color and the rice was mixed up with the kind of melange you find at the bottom of any pack (sand, down feathers, clothing fluff and hair). So now that we have the ingredients, here's the recipe: bring water to a boil (if you have any salt, by all means add it), add

They include any type of cabbage where the green leaves do not form a compact head. Collard, mustard, kale, swiss chard, and broccoli rabe are all varieties of cooking greens. Collard Greens Collards are the oldest known greens in the cabbage family dating back to ancient times because of their similarity to cabbage eaten by prehistoric people. In addition, ancient Greeks and Romans cultivated collard greens. Collards are native to the eastern Mediterranean region and Asia Minor. In approximately 400 B.C. they were brought to Britain and France by either the Romans or Celts. The first documentation of collard greens in America was in 1669 though it is possible they were present in the colonies at an even earlier date. Collard greens grow best in warm weather though they can withstand the cold temperatures of late autumn. Interestingly enough, the flavor of collard greens is enhanced by a light frost.

74. Watch Your Garden Grow - Chard The word swiss was used to distinguish chard from French charde or When cooking older chard, the stems require longer cooking time than the leaves. http://www.urbanext.uiuc.edu/veggies/chard1.html

Glossary Latin Names Asparagus Beans ... Recipes Chard is a beet that has been chosen for leaf production at the expense of storage root formation. Chard will produce fresh white, yellow or red leaf stalks. It is an attractive ornamental that adds color to the vegetable garden. Red Midrib Burgundy Rhubarb Ruby White Midrib Fordhook Giant Geneva Large White Broad-Ribbed Lucullus Perpetual Winter King Red, White or Yellow Midrib (mixed) Rainbow Chard should be directly seeded into the garden in early spring to mid-spring. Plant seeds 1/2 to 3/4 inches deep (8 to 10 seeds per foot of row) Thin seedlings to 4 to 6 inches apart. An alternative method is to thin the seedlings to 2 to 3 inches apart; then, when they are large enough for greens (6 to 8 inches tall), harvest the excess plants whole, leaving a final spacing of 9 to 12 inches between plants. Maintain sufficient soil moisture to keep plants growing well. Cut off the outer leaves 1 1/2 inches above the ground when they are young and tender (about 8-12 inches long). Be careful not to damage the terminal bud, at the center of the bottom of the growing rosette of foliage. The word "Swiss" was used to distinguish chard from French charde or chardon by nineteenth century seed catalogues publishers and the name stuck. Chard is very popular among Mediterranean cooks but the first varieties have been traced back to Sicily. In the US the leaves are valued while European cooks value the stalks to the point of discarding the leaves or feeding them to animals.

Events Cheese of the Month: Fanny Mason Baby Swiss For April, we're featuring a mild, tender Swiss-style cheese from Walpole, New Hampshire by Amy Albert Boggy Meadow Farm's Fanny Mason Baby Swiss is a good bet for an oaky Chardonnay. Let me begin by saying that I've never much liked Swiss cheese, having long found it hard and rubbery with a biting edge. And why not? Lots of what you find fits that description. So I was very pleasantly surprised to learn about Fanny Mason Baby Swiss, a Swiss-style artisan raw milk cheese made by Boggy Meadow Farm in Walpole, New Hampshire. Tender and mild with a deliciously nutty flavor, this cheese is great for eating on its own. On rye bread, it makes a terrific grilled cheese sandwich. Grate it over a vegetable gratin to create a savory topping. Fanny Mason Baby Swiss is also a delicious match for big, oaky Chardonnays wines that often can be tricky to pair with food. There are a few ways that baby Swiss is different than regular Swiss-style cheese like Emmenthal. Baby Swiss curds are cooked for less time. Baby Swiss cheese is aged for less time (two to three months, as opposed to nine months to two years.) And the holes are smaller.

Subscribe Advertise From Natural Life Magazine May/June 2005 Issue Index Contact Ask Natural Life... How Safe and Healthy is Microwave Cooking? Q: I’d appreciate having your view on microwave cooking. I am confused as to whether microwaving destroys nutrients. Is it safe, and just a different form of cooking? Some time back, I read an article that caused me to get rid of my microwave as it stated it affected nutrients in food. A: Microwave ovens, their safety and their effect on the nutritional value of food is yet another subject that yields wildly conflicting information. A Spanish study published in the Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture in 2003 disproves that statement. Researchers from the Spanish scientific research council CEBAS-CSIC found that cooking by microwave is the worst way to preserve at least one key nutrient in vegetables. According to Dr. Cristina Garcia-Viguera, co-author of the study, microwaved broccoli loses 97 percent, 74 percent, and 87 percent of the three major cancer-protecting antioxidant compounds (flavonoids, sinapics and caffeoyl-quinic derivatives). By comparison, steamed broccoli loses 11 percent, percent and 8 percent of the very same antioxidants. In a 1992 article in the journal

79. Microwave Cooking Is Killing You! Microwave cooking is killing you! Learn about the unknown health problems He got together with Blanc of the swiss Federal Institute of Biochemistry and http://www.relfe.com/microwave.html

home page MICROWAVE COOKING is Killing You! By Stephanie Relfe B.Sc. (Syd.) Microwave cooking is one of the most important causes of ill health . It is certainly one of the most ignored. There was a lawsuit in 1991 in Oklahoma. A woman named Norma Levitt had hip surgery, but was killed by a simple blood transfusion when a nurse "warmed the blood for the transfusion in a microwave oven!" Logic suggests that if heating is all there is to microwave cooking, then it doesn't matter how something is heated. Blood for transfusions is routinely warmed, but not in microwave ovens. Does it not therefore follow that microwaving cooking does something quite different? A little evidence of the harm caused by microwaving cooking was given by the University of Minnesota in a radio announcement: "Microwaves ... are not recommended for heating a baby's bottle. The bottle may seem cool to the touch, but the liquid inside may become extremely hot and could burn the baby's mouth and throat... Heating the bottle in a microwave can cause slight changes in the milk. In infant formulas, there may be a loss of some vitamins . In expressed breast milk

Michele Serre, Editor All about CHARD and SWISS CHARD Beta Vulgaris French: bette à cardes; blette; bette; poiré An edible plant of the chenopodiaceae family Recipe from Masterchef Warm Duck Foie Gras in Swiss Chard Greens Stéphane Raimbault of L'Oasis in La Napoule, France Etymology Drom the Latin "beta" Description A relative of the beet, grown for its white, fleshy chard and its greens, which resemble spinach. A distinction is made between the leafy part of the plant and the actual chard, which refers to the broad middle stalks and the side ribs. Thus there are two kinds of cultivation, and different uses and cooking methods. The chard was once grown exclusively to be eaten at Christmas in the south of France, and constituted the highlight of the Christmas Eve meal. Only the ribs, having a flavour reminiscent of artichoke hearts, were eaten. Low in calories, Swiss chard is an ideal vegetable for those watching their weight, as well as being a good source of potassium, calcium and fibre.
