Baby aspirin and Beauty

Since I'm part of the unemployed set I occasionally catch Oprah (which by the way, I'm pushing for her to run for U.S. Presidency) and there were the BEST beauty tips - straight from a doctor- and health tips.

The BEST 3 items to consume to prevent cancer
  • Folate - can be found in OJ, Broccoli, and can be taken via a vitamin
  • Vitamin D- nonfat milk, via a vitamin or hanging in the sun for approximately 10 minutes
  • Baby aspirin - I never would have thought, but taking two baby aspirin not only helps to prevent cancer BUT makes you look younger!

A few other things that are good for you..... well, you can actually have a nice healthy dinner. The doctor pushed the fact that tomato sauce or anything with tomatoes was extremely healthy and would ward off many cancers. Here's a dinner I plan to have this week!

  • Wheat pasta (that has HIGH fiber- like 20% of the daily value)
  • Organic tomato sauce with garlic and olive oil
  • Spinach salad with light vinaigrette dressing
  • Glass of red wine

Oh and one more thing.... Coffee is good for you despite many reports that are out claiming it's baaaaad.... Coffee prevents cancer, Alzeheimer's and Parkinson's. So, drink up!
