NEWS AND HIGHLIGHTS:
A tip to lose weight: you can drink warm or hot beverages to flush out fatty material in your
stomach and intestines (Note: room temperature is counted as cold).
SEASONAL HEALTH NOTES:
Spring is here. Spring is the season when it is easiest to catch a common cold. Many
people start suffering from runny nose and cough. One tip to avoid getting the common
cold is to NOT pack away winter clothes as soon as it's early spring. This is because
during early spring, the temperature can change dramatically even within the same day. If
you do not have enough clothes on you when the temperature drops, you can catch a cold,
which then will propagate to your chest and cause a cough. So, if you keep your winter
clothes on until the temperature stabilizes, you have a better chance of not catching the
common cold.
Spring is also a season of allergies. If you have been treated for allergies before but the
symptoms are coming back this season, now is the time to schedule an appointment:
Your immune system needs to be readjusted over and over in order to overcome allergies
permanently. Only gradually will you not suffer from seasonal allergies any more.

RECIPES:
Stir fried spinach (or other green leafy vegetables): –Spinach and other green leafy
vegetables are rich in Vitamin B and fiber. Spinach is also rich in iron in its pale pink root.
However, if your digestive system is not strong, you may not be able to absorb these
nutrients if you eat them raw. Therefore, stir frying vegetables can help your body absorb
the nutrition you need from these vegetables and strengthen your immune system..
Ingredients:
1lb spinach or other leafy vegetables cut into 1.5 inch long, 1 tablespoon olive oil or other
oil, a pinch salt, half green onion chopped into small pieces,
Instruction:
1. put all the ingredients in a pan and turn on stove
2. stir the spinach or vegetables constantly and throughout
3. once all the pieces of vegetables evenly turn to a slightly darker color, take them out to a
dish, done!
Serves 2 persons.
Have a healthy, happy spring season
