There are many so called healthy foods and programs that are advertised. Some of them are legitimate and seriously work; others are just garbage that lie to people. It is important to look for foods that have legitimate healing power. Here are some superfoods that are very healthy and natural and can work when consumed along a healthy diet.

Bone Broth

The origin of bone broth start over 2500 years in Chinese medicine. It is made by roasting the bones to bring out the flavor. Then the bones are simmered for about eight hrs. Bone broth was used by Lakers star Kobe Bryant as he got older to help him recover better after games. The many health benefits are it is loaded with minerals. The most important is collagen and gelatin which help build muscle growth. And unlike many other soups and stocks and broths that are loaded with salt, this has a lot less salt and still has a very succulent flavor.

Ginger

Ginger is a plant that originated in China. It has a spicy kind of taste that feels great on the throat. It helps cut reduce muscle soreness. It also has lowers blood sugars and also helps lower the risk of heart disease. Ginger contains Gingerol and therefore contains strong medicinal properties. It also improves brain functions and also protects against Alzheimer's disease. And it also feels so good when I have it in tea. The best way to use it is to boil it in water and then put some mint or lemon or honey or any combination of those three. It is amazing.

Kale

Kale has many benefits as well. The best one is that it is tasteless so it can be mixed with fruits to make juices and smoothies that taste excellent. Kale is high in iron, vitamin K, and powerful antioxidants. It is also anti-inflammatory, meaning it prevents against inflation. This is one of the healthiest greens out there.

These three foods are excellent super-foods that can ENHANCE your health. Having a diet with only those 3 things is not going to work. Nor is having a bad diet combined with these 3 foods going to make a difference. You must have a healthy diet for it to make a legitimate difference.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
