Wasabi comes from the root-like stem (rhizome) of Wasabia japonica, a mustard relative that grows in streams and moist, shady areas of Japan and is now being cultivated in North America, especially in the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia. When freshly grated, authentic wasabi forms a light green, coarsely textured paste that is pungent and much more flavorful than the mix of horseradish, mustard and green food coloring billed as "wasabi" in many restaurants. In addition, genuine wasabi has valuable therapeutic effects, including antibiotic properties and anti-inflammatory activity, and appears useful for relieving symptoms of seasonal allergies.

An excellent source of manganese and vitamin C, fresh pineapple is also a good source of bromelain, a natural anti-inflammatory compound that is helpful for addressing the symptoms of sinusitis, gout, and arthritis, and for swelling and bruising. It may also help promote a healthy immune system and prevent inflammatory conditions. Eat it plain, in a smoothie or fruit salad, or use in relishes or to add sweetness to dishes such as pizza. Because pineapple has an intermediate score of 66 on the glycemic index, diabetics looking for low-index fruits should opt for cherries and apples more often than pineapple. Pineapple is part of the [Pineapple Almond Shake]( recipe! [Food as Medicine] Getting Vitamin K Via Your Diet Vitamin K helps to regulate normal blood clotting and is necessary for strong, healthy bones. Luckily, most adults and children who eat a balanced diet receive adequate amounts and do not need supplementation. Good food sources of vitamin K include leafy greens such as Swiss chard, kale, spinach and parsley, broccoli and cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, soybean oil and wheat bran. [Tip]Tip: For both flavor and health benefits, fresh is best when it comes to pineapple. When shopping, choose one that is heavy for its size, cut up and store in an airtight container with some of its own juice for a healthy treat. [Checklist] 4 Ways To Get Calcium Without The Milk! Don't like milk - or can't digest it properly? You aren't alone. The good news is there are plenty of non-dairy foods that provide calcium: [Checklist] 1.Calcium-fortified beverages. Orange juice and carrageenan-free soymilk are good choices. Read the labels to see how much calcium is in each serving, and how big the serving size is, as well as how much one serving contributes to your total daily percentage of calcium. Look for products containing calcium citrate and malate, which may be better absorbed than tricalcium phosphate and calcium lactate. A six-ounce serving of calcium-fortified orange juice usually provides about 20 to 25 percent of your daily value (DV); an eight-ounce serving of soymilk contains anywhere from eight to 50 percent of your DV, depending on the brand. [Checklist] 2.Cooked greens. Turnip greens, kale and spinach are just a few examples of natural sources of calcium from the greens family. A half-cup of cooked spinach contains about 12 percent of your DV of calcium, one cup of cooked kale has nine percent, and a half-cup of boiled turnip greens offers 10 percent. [Checklist] 3.Canned salmon with bones. The bones of this fish are softened in the canning process, making them edible - and an excellent source of calcium. You'll get a whopping 18 percent of your DV of calcium from three ounces of canned salmon (including bones). Choose canned salmon from sources in the wild (not farmed). [Checklist] 4.Tofu. Read the package label to make sure calcium was used in its preparation. If so, a half-cup of firm tofu typically contains 20 percent of the DV, while the same amount of soft tofu provides 14 percent. You may want to consider adding a balanced calcium-magnesium supplement to fill in any dietary gaps, as well.
