Dinner requires a bit more work in that you will have to prepare the main dish—either chicken, turkey, or fish. If you crave red meat, that's okay, but not more than once a week. Limiting red meat reduces your fat intake while still giving you a lot of protein.
Consider roasting a small turkey. You'll have plenty of leftovers for several lunches, either as slices to be eaten with mayonnaise or mustard or as turkey salad with mayonnaise, cucumbers, and onions. (Again, remember—no bread.) Vegetables with your dinner should consist of mushrooms, asparagus, broccoli, or green beans. |

Motolinia tells us that in his day (not long after the fall of Tenochtitlan), the daily wage of a porter in central Mexico was 100 beans, which puts into perspective the following partial list of commodity prices in Tlaxcala, in a Nahuatl document in 1545:
• One good turkey hen is worth 100 full cacao beans, or 120 shrunken cacao beans.
• A turkey cock is worth 200 cacao beans.
• A hare [jackrabbit] or forest rabbit is worth 100 cacao beans each.
• A small rabbit is worth 30.
• One turkey egg is worth 3 cacao beans. |

It is possible to buy overly processed turkey that is turkey protein pressed out to look like slices of real turkey meat but isn't.
These artifacts are dangerous because they are made to look and to taste like food. The average person eating these foods would naturally assume that they are what they appear to be, yet they would not contain the nutrient quality that was present in the original food. Overly processed foods not only fool the senses of taste and smell, but they also make it impossible to judge the quality of the food by using the subterfuge of appearing to be real food. |

One of the most telling international episodes of poor industrial working conditions involves an outbreak of silicosis in turkey. Silicosis, a progressive scarring of the lung, is a well-recognized hazard in sandblasting, because the dust generated is copious and pernicious. Sandblasting is usually carried out in construction to clean metal before painting it. In turkey, sandblasting jeans has become an important manufacturing niche in supplying an international market hungry for a stylish "distressed" denim look. |

Did you eat chicken or turkey during the last three months?" Having answered yes, I then was asked, "When you ate chicken or turkey, how often did you eat the skin?" And, "Did you usually choose light meat, dark meat, both?" But the survey soon became harder, as when it asked me to think back over the past three months to recall whether when I ate okra, squash, or yams were they fried, and if so, were they fried in stick margarine, tub margarine, butter, shortening (in which category they inexplicably lumped together hydrogenated vegetable oil and lard), olive or canola oil, or nonstick spray? |

Animal foods to reduce or avoid that contain saturated fat include beef, pork, lamb, and even chicken and turkey. Even though chicken and turkey are lower in saturated fat, they are actually higher in arachidonic acid than red meats.
Salt can be another aggravating factor for women with menstrual cramps. Too much dietary salt can increase fluid retention and worsen bloating that contributes to the congestive symptoms of menstrual cramps. Canned and frozen foods, fast foods, and processed/packaged foods are all suspect for high amounts of salt. Read the labels carefully. |

Tryptophan is commonly thought to be the reason why people think they feel so sleepy after eating their Thanksgiving turkey dinner—because turkey contains a large amount of tryptophan. The reality is that almost no one eats a sufficient amount of turkey to get enough tryptophan to cause drowsiness. The truth is that the consumption of high glycemic foods, such as stuffing, potatoes, cornbread, and pie, cause such an insulin response that people actually get sleepy from the spike of insulin after eating Thanksgiving dinner. |

Eggs and meats, which could include fish, chicken, turkey, and lamb, should be eaten in moderation. Meat should be farm-raised, without the use of antibiotics, hormones, or drugs. The fat of meat should not be eaten, nor the skins of chicken and turkey. Cooking should be by steaming, broiling, or baking. Whatever can be cooked in an oven should be; stovetop temperatures are too high. Keep in mind that all cooked protein has a change in composition, becomes incomplete, and places undue stress on the body, which can eventually lead to disease. |

Archaeological records show that between 6300 and 4800 bc adoption of agriculture spread steadily west through turkey, into Greece, and up the Balkans at an average pace of about half a mile per year. Other than cattle, plants and animals that form the basis for European agriculture came from the Middle East.
The first farmers relied on rainfall to water their crops on upland fields. They were so successful that by about 5000 bc the human population occupied virtually the entire area of the Middle East suitable for dryland farming. |

Eat unsweetened yogurt, organic chicken, and turkey for their tryptophan content, an important amino acid involved in making serotonin, which has a calming affect on the body. Avoid all processed sugars and junk foods. These will play havoc with your blood sugar levels, which can cause hyperactivity. Foods rich in essential fatty acids nourish the nervous system and have been shown to help with hyperactivity. Such foods include wild Pacific salmon, sardines, trout, ground flaxseeds, walnuts, and almonds. |
| You can also eat other leant meats such as chicken and turkey. Saturated fat interferes with the metabolism of some hormones that cause PCOS. Also limit the amount and type of simple carbohydrates you eat. A diet high in refined carbohydrates will lead to an excessive insulin response, which in turn can stimulate androgen (a primarily male hormone) production, which contributes to PCOS. The best carbohydrates to consume are whole grains, nuts, seeds, vegetables, and fruit. |

Dealing with Premenstrual Irritability
People often debate whether premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is an actual medical condition or just a natural part of a woman's life. The truth is that mild PMS symptoms affect upward of 90 percent of menstruating women, and an estimated 8 to 20 percent women experience severe symptoms. Physical symptoms include abdominal and back pain, migraines, and other types of headaches. Behavioral symptoms include irritability, a "climbing-the-walls" feeling, and mood swings. |

Diet: Consume foods that are high in the amino acid L-lysine, such as legumes, fish, turkey, chicken, and vegetables. Foods high in vitamin C ¦fc^fjl and bioflavonoids such as peppers, broccoli, berries, and carrots help to ^SkM^ heal the skin. Avoid foods high in the amino acid L-arginine such as almonds, peanuts, chocolate, and whole wheat, as they can stimulate herpes replication. Eliminate sugar and foods that contain sugars and hydrogenated fats; these suppress the immune system and interfere with the healing process. |
| Such foods include eggs, turkey, fish, milk, wheat germ, and black strap molasses. Eliminate any foods to which you are allergic.
Herbs: Tea tree oil is a powerful herbal disinfectant. Apply undiluted tea tree oil to the affected area twice a day. Comfrey also makes an excellent topical salve and can be applied twice a day. Calendula ointment is healing and soothing to the skin. Add some goldenseal tincture, or purchase the calendula ointment mixed with goldenseal, for its antimicrobial properties.
Hydrotherapy: A cool oatmeal bath may help relieve itchiness. |

Think Before You Zinc
Zinc cold remedies should be used cautiously. There is evidence that zinc can lessen a cold's severity, but zinc products should be used only two or three times a day, primarily in the first 48 hours after symptom onset—not every three hours, as indicated on labels. Do not use zinc lozenges and nasal spray—choose one. |
| Helpful: When shopping for meat, look for dark meat products, such as liver, beef or dark-meat turkey. They are the best sources of iron. Tofu and seafood (especially clams and shrimp) are also rich in iron.
•Zinc. This mineral is essential for a healthy immune system. It is highly bioavailable in red meat, though some zinc is also found in nuts (almonds and walnuts). Poultry is another good source of zinc.
Helpful: Consider adding oysters to your diet. They are one of the richest sources of zinc.
Caution: Raw oysters are often contaminated with bacteria.
•Magnesium. |
| For a convenient protein source that lasts for several days, roast a turkey breast or chicken in an oven cooking bag, slice it up and use it during the week.
As an alternative to meat, consider using whey protein powder—an excellent source of protein derived from milk.
Look for cold filtered and ion exchanged on the label, which indicates that the processing has removed lactose (milk sugar) and casein (a highly allergenic protein found in milk). This process breaks down the whey, making it more absorbable.
Next Nutrition as well as Jarrow each make excellent whey products. |

Insist on breast of turkey cut from a real bird, or you may be getting the poultry equivalent of bologna when you order turkey slices for your chef s salad. turkey burgers are great, but make sure they are prepared fresh from lean turkey breast rather than from a grind that incorporates fatty skin and mystery parts.
• Tofu, beans, lentils, split peas, other legumes.
A recent survey showed tofu to be America's most-despised food, but many have learned to enjoy creative products such as tofu hot dogs, soy burgers, and even tofu bacon and cheeses. |

Domesticated crops then spread south to Jericho in the Jordan Valley and northwest into southern turkey.
Although tradition places agriculture in the Middle East long before any parallel activity in Asia and the Americas, recent research suggests that people in South America, Mexico, and China may have domesticated plants long before the first signs of settled villages in these regions. Sediments in a cave called Diaotonghuan along China's Yangtze Rivet tell a story similar to that of Abu Hureyra in which wild rice was domesticated around the time of the Younger Dryas. |
| Turkey five years later. With minimal duties and ample time for travel, he collected plants and animals for the Smithsonian Institution during an expedition through Egypt and Palestine in 1851 before returning home. A decade later President Abraham Lincoln appointed Marsh ambassador to Italy. Extending his travels to the Alps, Marsh saw the Old World's degraded land as the end result of soil neglect like that he witnessed as Vermont's forests were converted into wheat fields and pastures. |
| Half of turkey is affected by serious topsoil erosion. Once done, the damage lasts for generations.
In the 1970s sub-Saharan Africa experienced its own dust bowl. Until the twentieth century, West African farmers used a shifting pattern of cultivation that left fields fallow for long periods. Grazing was light as animal herders moved long distances across the landscape each year. In the twentieth century, the combination of a rising population and encroachment of agricultural fields on traditional pastures intensified land use by both farmers and pastoralists. |
