<span style="line-height: 19.32px;">All members of the capsicum genus (from bell to habanero) are rich in the vitamins C and A, and the mineral silica, making them great for improving skin elasticity and shine. What makes the Scotch Bonnet stand out in particular though is its exceptionally high heat (Scoville) rating. Clocking in with between 100,000–400,000 Scoville heat units (SHU), the Scotch Bonnet adds a formidable punch to your meals.</span></div>

Try them chopped fresh into guacamole or even in sweet desserts with chocolate, their fruity bite works well in both sweet and savoury domains alike.</div>

If you have had the pleasure of being around me in person over the past half year to a year ;) you may have equated me with a zombie who has had his face constantly in the computer, with little to no time for anything or anyone else.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
The explanation for this, aside from my general usual enjoyment of isolation from people ha ha, is I have been working pretty intensely on some new projects which are finally starting to come to fruition and hopefully, will be seeing t<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">he light of day soon if all goes to plan.</span></div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #141823; display: inline; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px;">
I won't reveal too much at the moment as things are still taking shape, other than that they involve the coming together of some interesting worlds and philosophies (one being chocolate and nutrition) which when combined together have the potential to create some pretty radical change and transformation.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
If this peaks your interest then head over to <a href="http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Feuphonichealth.com%2F&h=AAQHQqgltAQFqjhAxzfGP7RpAijMiw7br0n7Z-XJEMxMT5A&enc=AZMzVrYEhAIRGn49awxII9yHwQs1D8_Os_JYcYBZXFhT6zeu8GxDXXXB2XV_VhSNoUCCJlyS6jspCBE7lyXiug50-0mmNtZ0bR35J9gaPhayjcWSz0mIhKK28J4iUyDALYx0gn0Qcatq7Wf2DzLq8HJzRihYwAB6FiCZf4vJJzlcALJUCOHjohJQ_i-GRZwc4NU&s=1" rel="nofollow" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">euphonichealth.com</a> and sign up for the email newsletter to stay up to date, or follow us on social media, if that is your thing. Lots of fun, free, and easy tips for people looking to bring their energy, mood, and physical structure to more peak levels.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Finally, and most importantly, I apologise for not showing up as fully as I could in supporting you in your life recently, and probably in general. I am recommitting and striving (again lol) to being better and improving at this. There is a definite big chink in my armor here.</div>

Courage is not the absence of fear, says Osho. It is, rather, the total presence of fear, with the courage to face it. This book provides a bird's-eye view of the whole terrain-where fears originate, how to understand them, and how to find the courage to face them. In the process, Osho proposes that whenever we are faced with uncertainty and change in our lives, it is actually a cau<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">se for celebration. Instead of trying to hang on to the familiar and the known, we can learn to enjoy these situations as opportunities for adventure and for deepening our understanding of ourselves and the world around us.</span></div>

"The word courage is very interesting. It comes from a Latin root cor, which means heart. So to be courageous means to live with the heart. And weaklings, only weaklings, live with the head; afraid, they create a security of logic around themselves. Fearful they close every window and door - with theology, concepts, words, theories - and inside those closed doors and windows, they hide. The way of the heart is the way of courage. It is to live in insecurity; it is to live in love, and trust; it is to move in the unknown. It is leaving the past and allowing the future to be. Courage is to move on dangerous paths. Life is dangerous, and only cowards can avoid the danger - but then they are already dead. A person who is alive, really alive, vitally alive, will always move into the unknown. There is danger there, but they will take the risk."</div>

<span style="line-height: 18.2px;">Many people throw the baby out with the bath water when it comes to grains and bread, labeling them all as unhealthy food choices. While they certainly have drawbacks, and feature far too heavily in our diets, they can be used intelligently from time to time to provide us with some nutrition and pleasure.</span></div>

<span style="line-height: 18.2px;">To maximise nutrient uptake from store bought bread choose ones made from the less domesticated grains (such as spelt, kamut, and einkorn) which ideally have gone through a sourdough process with wild yeasts, or a long fermentation process with fresh yeast. Additionally, the ingredients on the packet should read : flour, salt, yeast. Nothing else needs, or should, be in there to make great tasting bread. Even better make it yourself with the recipe below and then you get to control the parameters mentioned above.</span></div>

<span style="line-height: 18.2px;">Prepare your work surface with a light dusting of flour. Pour the dough out on the flour covered surface and dust the dough with flour to prevent sticking. Then fold it 4 times. Take the first side and fold it onto the middle of the dough. Repeat this for the opposing side, then do the same thing to the top and bottom. Now place the folded dough into your proofing vessel of choice (proofing basket works best) and let rise for 2-3 hours at room temperature. With around 40 minutes left of the rising time, turn on the oven to 500F (250°C) and place your cooking vessel with the lid on in the oven. After 40 minutes carefully remove the vessel from the hot oven, using oven gloves. Unwrap the dough and place/drop it in. Slash the dough with a knife, then cover with the lid and place it back in the hot oven. Bake for 30 minutes, then lower the heat to 445F (230°C), remove the lid and bake for another 15 minutes. Remove it from the oven, let cool slightly, and turn upside down and place the bread on an oven rack to cool.</span></div>

A variety of orange with dark red flesh owed to the presence of anthocyanins (a family of antioxidant pigments) such as chrysanthemin.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;">The citrus family, of which blood orange is a member, are the perfect pre and post workout food due to their rich electrolyte content.

<span style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;">For years now freezing cold showers have been one of my favourite protocols for immediately increasing my mood, focus, and energy. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;">I am always amazed by the profound shift that takes place over my mind and my body in such a short space of time.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;">Yes the discomfort is intense.

Just thirty seconds is enough to notice an effect. From here you can build up to longer times if you desire, or go straight cold with no prior warm.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;">Did my cold dip this morning then listened to a podcast with the King of cold therapy - Wim Hof</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;">Check out the show at </span><a class="ot-anchor aaTEdf" dir="ltr" href="https://player.fm/series/london-real-59740/wim-hof-the-iceman" jslog="10929; track:click" rel="nofollow" style="background-color: white; color: #427fed; cursor: pointer; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; transition: color 0.218s;" target="_blank">https://player.fm/series/london-real-59740/wim-hof-the-iceman</a><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;">Fascinating listening.</span></div>

Life doesn't change, but your perception does. It's all about what you focus on. Withdraw from the world's influence and no longer be controlled by your emotions.

<div class="tG QF" style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; position: absolute; width: 0px;">

<div class="Ct" style="background-color: white;">
<div style="color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 18.2px;">When people come to me for coaching one of the first things I do is put them on an adaptogen. Why? Because everyone experiences stress and adaptogens are an easy way to help overcome and manage this stress.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 18.2px;">When stress is mentioned most tend to things of emotional stress - such as anxiety. When really stress comes in many forms. There are environmental, biological, physical, and emotional stresses . Then there is the severity with which the stress is affecting our body - is it acute or is it chronic? In short; stress comes in many flavours, and if you are alive, you are experiencing some form of it.</span></div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 18.2px;">More often than not the adaptogenic herb I recommend to begin to with is Holy Basil as it is readily available, cheap, tastes great, and helps to target the most chronic stress symptom most people experience on a daily basis -anxiety. </span></div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 18.2px;">While anxiety symptoms can come from a number of possible avenues, and often require multi targeted approaches to treat, holy basil can positively effect our feelings of calmness and serenity through its ability to reduce cortisol and blood sugar levels in our body. Not much is needed, more often than not effects are felt after the first cup.</span></div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 18.2px;">A good brand to go with is Pukka Herbs. They are readily available, high potency, and most importantly they understand the importance of sustainability.</span></div>
</span><div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 18.2px;">Happy brewing and remember no matter what herb you are taking if you don't seek to address the other areas of stress in your life (relationships, job, diet etc etc) then you will continue to suffer in much the same way, albeit with a slightly clearer mind ;)</span></div>

The cells that make up each strand of hair require a regular supply of nutrients in order to maintain new, healthy growth. The nutrients most involved with this renewal are; protein, vitamin A, biotin, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, omega-3, selenium, zinc, and iron. </span></div>

<span style="color: #404040; font-family: "roboto" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18.2px;">Of the foods particularly rich in these nutrients black sesame seed (Sesamum Indicum) is probably one of the most interesting. Famed in Traditional Chinese Medicine as a hair tonic (a food used to promote the growth of thick, healthy hair), black sesame is prescribed to stimulate hair growth and darken greying hair. While the jury is out on its ability to produce melanin (the pigment responsible for hair and skin colour) in our bodies, science has validated it as a rich source of the nutrients involved in hair growth. Rich in B-vitamins, iron, zinc, selenium, and a complete protein, black sesame packs a well rounded punch when it comes to the 'hair nutrients'. Additionally, a great source of vitamin E and rich in Oleic Acid, black sesame helps to lock in moisture and add shine to your locks.</span></div>

<span style="color: #404040; font-family: "roboto" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18.2px;">Hair darkening properties or not, black sesame makes for a powerful addition to your regime due to its balanced and well rounded nutrient profile, and wonderful taste. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #404040; font-family: "roboto" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18.2px;">Sesame seed is most often found in the form of tahini, which can be used in much the same way as you would peanut butter. If you are unable to find black tahini (more than likely) then the version made from the white seed is a good replacement. Aside from its slightly lower antioxidant levels, the white stands up to the black in nutrient profile.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #404040; font-family: "roboto" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18.2px;">Some concern has been raised around the oxalic acid content and mineral binding properties found in the hulls of the seeds. If this concerns you then opt for the hulled version, but do know that you will missing out on some nutrition as a result.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;">Many times when people make the switch from a meat based diet to a more plant based one they find it challenging to maintain their muscle mass and strength. Often this is partly through the inability to find a dense and absorbable source of plant protein to fill the gap left by omitting meat. Two go to foods to help cover this issue, among several others that can occur on both a vegetarian and carnivores diet, are shelled hemp seeds and bee pollen. Here is my favourite recipe that I have daily to ensure I am covering my bodies protein needs. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: Roboto, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18.2px; text-align: start;">As a side note many people who think they have an allergy to bee pollen (itchy, scratchy throat symptoms) are actually just eating rancid pollen. To sidestep this issue choose one which has been dried and processed properly. My two favourites are from TOCA Honey and GFM Honey. Even better would be sourcing from a local beekeeper in your area. If symptoms still persist even when trying other sources then it may be a true allergy and best left out of your diet.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">Healing with Whole Foods brings together authentic traditions of Oriental medicine with current Western research on health and nutrition to create the most detailed source-book available on planning and preparing an optimal diet.</span></div>

Pitchford says in his dedication that he hopes the reader finds "healing, awareness, and peace" from following his program. The diet is certainly ascetic by Western standards (no alcohol, caffeine, white flour, fried foods, or sugar, and a minimum of eggs and dairy) but the reasons he gives for avoiding these "negative energy" foods are compelling. From the adrenal damage imparted by coffee to immune dysfunction brought on by excess refined sugar, Pitchford spurs you to rethink every dietary choice and its ultimate influence on your health. Without being alarmist, he adds dietary tips for protecting yourself against the dangers of modern life.</div>

"When emotions are relatively balanced, we naturally sense self respect and therefore find that quality choices in food represent the most desirable action. Moreover, we discover that inferior foods simply aren't interesting. Their energetic qualities are negative and we naturally prefer not to pollute our bodies and degrade our minds with them. Such a relationship between food and awareness is a key to feeling complete and having emotional equilibrium. Greater awareness breaks the emotional attachment-link to food. Such simple processes are often hardest to see; we may think our emotional conundrums need a complex cure , yet by having practices that calm the mind and brighten the spirit, by being abundantly active, and choosing quality foods, we ride the emotional train to harmony! One purpose of this text is to promote world peace in a unique and highly practical way - by encouraging the healing of our overly aggressive desires and emotions with self reflective practices and better quality biological choices, including food choices."</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">Since ancient times, pomegranate has been used for medicinal purposes. Know as "natures power fruit", the pomegranate is one of the most antioxidant rich foods in the world. </span></div>
<span data-reactid=".4.1.0.0.2.1.0.0.1" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">Native to the Middle East, pomegranates (Punica granatum), like most fruits, are rich in vitamin C, fiber, and potassium. What makes the pomegranate stand out though is its remarkable levels of antioxidants and inflammation suppressing phytonutrients. Researchers have identified more than 120 different phytochemicals in pomegranates with a study in 2008 finding the juice to have greater antioxidant capacity than even red wine, green tea, and acai berry juice. The most exciting research to date has come from studies on the pressed juice and a compound in it called Ellagitannins and their potential to exert antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects on cancer cells. While more research is needed to make a definitive claim on the juice against cancer, research carried out in 2006 stated the juice to be a possible "nontoxic option for prevention or delay of prostate carcinogenesis." </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">Again when something has a long standing historical use, tastes great, and has no (known) toxic effects then it makes sense to include it in your daily regime.</span><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">When choosing the juice make sure to get 100% percent juice, otherwise you are paying for added water and sugar and diluting/negating most of the benefits to be had from the fresh juice. A great brand to look for is 'Biona Pomegranate Juice'. The juice tastes great alone or can be added to sparkling water, freshly pressed juices, and blended smoothies.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit;">Not much is needed for an effect. Try a shot of fresh ginger juice before a meal, or a teaspoon in a smoothie, even a small amount added to a soup or stir fry will provide some benefit.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 19.32px;">One of the fascinating things about human beings is the extraordinary variety of what we eat. From the primarily flesh based diets of the Eskimos from one side of our planet, to a more plant based style of eating by the Okinawa's on the other, humans have, and do consume a wide and varied number of foods. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 19.32px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="line-height: 19.32px;">With this in mind, and researching a bit more closely the potential negatives of the very limited diet we eat in the U.K (One example: In Ghana yearly, over 100 species of</span><span style="line-height: 19.32px;"> </span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; line-height: 19.32px;">wild plants are consumed vs next to none here), I have made it one of my goals for 2016 to increase the variety of what I am eating, especially in regard to wild foods. To widen the scope of nutrition I am receiving, to experience new tastes, and to have more fun with my food.</span></div>

Be sure to join me for the challenge. All you have to do is to add one new plant food to your weekly diet, learn its history and benefits and how to use and prepare it.</div>

The research results are in: quality sleep has a massive impact on your overall health and well-being, and not surprisingly in our pedal to the metal culture, few people are getting enough. According to research almost 25% of people struggle to get the quality sleep they need to function at their best. As a result more and more people are relying on external aids, such as prescription drugs, to re<span class="text_exposed_show">mediate their problem.<br /><br /> If you are researching natural ways to alleviate these struggles it can be difficult to separate fact from fiction. Often old wives tales (which may work) are passed as scientific truths when in fact this is not true. Sometimes, these two paths do cross though, as is the case with tart cherry juice, and recent research looking at its effects on melatonin levels and enhanced sleep quality. <br /><br /> Cherries are small sweet fruits usually classified into two categories: sweet cherries (Prunus Avium); and tart cherries (Prunus cerasus). Both are nutrient packed, health giving fruits yet, it is the tart cherry which has received much press over the last few years as a natural sleep aid. A study published in 2011 in the European Journal of nutrition examined the effect of 60ml of the juice taken daily and it effects on sleep patterns. While the study was only done on twenty people the results showed improved sleep duration and quality by those who consumed the juice verse the placebo.<br /><br /> As always there are no magic bullets to complex multifaceted issues such as sleep. It takes work, and time, to get to the route of sleep problems, and when we can do something fun, tasty, and easy to stack the odds in our favour it makes sense to do so.<br /><br /> Cherries are generally in season from May through to August. They are also available frozen and dried for the rest of the year, although fresh and local is preferable when available. <br /> When buying cherry juice, or any fruit/vegetable juice for that matter, look for brands which contain 100% percent juice. The juice can be drunk straight or added to smoothies or sparkling water.<br /><br /> Cherries go great with raw chocolate. The rich magnesium content of the chocolate assists in relaxing your muscles for a deeper sleep. Some people find raw chocolate too stimulating. If this is you then skip the recipe below and opt for the straight juice.</span></div>
