Easter's on it's Way! Brown Sugar Ham

Greetings, or should I say Happy Easter! The piece' de' resistance, the centerpiece, the one thing everyone anticipates at Easter, as much as the Turkey at Thanksgiving..........The Ham! Now, in my opinion, you can't have Easter without a big beautiful succulent ham, covered in sweet pineapple, studded with spicy cloves and beautified with candied cherries. Pineapples and cherries are like jewelry for my ham. Cover the lot with a generous portion of brown sugar, put it in the oven, all covered up and cozy for a warm sauna nap and what do you get? Pure Easter Heaven! So simple, so delicious and so budget friendly! Remember, ham is always on sale this time of year so it's good to get an extra to throw in the freezer for when you want the classic taste of Easter in the middle of the summer or for back to school. You'll get lots of meat for dinner and leftovers of sandwiches and casseroles but the best, best part is the ham bone that you will get to freeze and use to season beans or bean soup or collar greens or pea soup, well you get the picture. I hope you try this and I hope you enjoy it, and as always, Happy Eating and Happy Easter! Music used under creative commons license Open those bright eyes by Kevin MacLeod www.incompetech.com

Low Cholesterol | Make Low Cholesterol Diet

Are you looking for a free list of low cholesterol foods? People who have high cholesterol levels don't even know that they have it because there aren't any specific symptoms. Often, they already have a heart disease caused by hypercholesterolemia before they even become aware of it. This is why experts recommend eating a diet low in cholesterol in order to avoid this scenario. Prevention is the best cure and many are now interested in looking up a free list of low cholesterol foods.
Diet for Low Cholestrol:
Cereals
Choose oat cereals if possible as they are extremely heart healthy. But make sure you check the labels on all cereals for calories, sodium and sugar.

As fish oils are excellent for the heart, choose fish that are highest in fish oil, such as mackerel, tuna, salmon, pollack, blue fish, swordfish and walleye. Given the huge benefits to be gained, fish should be eaten a minimum of three times a week. If you are averse to fish, then please seriously consider adding a fish oil supplement to your diet.

Avoid being swayed by advertisements because they promote non-therapeutic ways of lowering cholesterol for patients who have high blood pressure. They even tell you how simple it is to lower cholesterol and improve your overall health. As a result, patients rely on the advertisement's prescription medications and drugs. People should realize that there are pro-active methods on dealing with these problems.
Instead of relying on drugs, it is a good thing that we deal with this problem in a safer and natural approach. There are alternatives that we can do to control cholesterol that would require us not to sacrifice that much. A change in diet is one thing. There are foods out there that can lower cholesterol levels in the body. Foods rich in vitamins and nutrients are helpful because they lower the bad cholesterol also known as LDL (low-density lipoprotein) and they increase the good cholesterol or HDL (high-density lipoprotein) in our body. Drugs are always considered the final option for doctors, as much as possible, it is best to stay or choose the natural way.
