Nutritious Tidbits to feel better at the age you are today, every day:

• Olive oil: Never cook with extra virgin olive oil which should not be on high heat. Use regular olive oil cold pressed for frying on high heat.
• Milk: Use low fat milk.
• Oatmeal: Add walnuts and dried cranberries when cooking oatmeal. Top with brown sugar, maple syrup or honey.
• Juices: Always check to see that juices, in any form, do not have additional sugar added. Fruits already have a lot of sugar when pressed.  It is healthier to eat the fruit than drink the juice.
• Kiwi: Kiwi is an excellent source of vitamin C.
• Vitamin C and calcium are both good for controlling blood pressure.
• Cramps in your legs?  It may indicate lack of magnesium.  Halibut, dry roasted almonds and spinich are a few excellent sources of magnesium.
• Today’s consensus is that we should eat 5 fruits and vegetables daily.
