 Add honey, maple syrup, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves to saucepan. Heat over medium heat on the stove top until honey and syrup thin to a pouring consistency; remove from heat. Toss remaining ingredients (except fruit mixture) together in a large bowl and pour honey mixture over the ingredients in the bowl. Stir with a wooden spoon until the honey-and-syrup mixture coats all the ingredients. Divide the contents of the bowl between two metal cookie or Vz-sheet pans. Spread the mixture out to a thin layer and place into the oven. |

 He clearly disapproves of most high-tasting flavorings which people add to chocolate, such as pepper and ginger, which do nothing but add "fire" to the body. Like so many of his contemporaries, he warns about the use of vanilla: "The pleasant scent and heightened taste it gives to chocolate has made it very popular, but long experience having taught us that it is extremely heating, its use has become less frequent, and people who prefer to care for their health rather than please their senses abstain completely. |

| The name cardamom, also seen as cardamon, refers to three varieties from the ginger family: Elettaria, commonly known as green cardamom or true cardamom; Amomum, known as black cardamom; and Aframomum, found and used mainly in Africa and Madagascar. All cardamom species have been used in cooking and for healing purposes. Cardamom has a strong, unique taste, with an intensely aromatic fragrance. It is often used in baked goods but can be found in such dishes as masala, meat loaf, sausages, curries, and in beverages such as chai, coffee, and tea throughout the world. |

 The herb ginger also may be helpful. A study in Arthritis & Rheumatism found that patients taking a ginger extract benefited from moderate improvements in knee pain. The study confirmed ginger's use as an antiinflammatory agent in Chinese medicine, dating back more than twenty-five hundred years.
Two topical treatments also can help. Several studies have found that creams containing capsaicin, the pungent component of hot peppers, can reduce the pain of osteoarthritis. Capsaicin blocks the transmission of pain chemicals to the brain. |

 It is equally fascinating to observe that many herbs and spices used as seasonings contain large quantities of molecules that act as anti-inflammatory compounds, which also reduce the risks of developing certain chronic diseases such as cancer. ginger is the best example of this latter category; one of the principal molecules present in this root, gingerol, has often been put forward as a powerful potential anti-cancer agent, for its anti-inflammatory properties as well as its inhibiting activity on cancerous cells. |

 There's rosemary, turmeric, ginger, holy basil, green tea, a Chinese medicinal herb called Hu Zhang, Chinese gold thread, barberry, oregano, and Baikal skull cap. All of these are encapsulated with extra virgin olive oil and yellow beeswax. So even the capsule itself is healthier than what you would normally find in other products.
The top three ingredients are rosemary, turmeric and ginger. What's the big deal about these three ingredients? You'll notice that these are not isolated chemicals, nor are these vitamins or minerals. |

| So you'll be enjoying a lunch with grains (sandwich, thin-crust turkey pizza, wrap) and a dinner without grains (orange sesame salmon with broccoli, ginger grilled turkey tenderloin with a SuperFoodsRx side salad). Or alternately, you'll choose to have your grains at dinner and skip them at lunch. It's very simple and easy to remember. You can also think of the without grains meal as "lean and green" though of course your veggies don't always have to be green! And keep in mind that all the SuperFoodsRx lunch and dinner entrees are interchangeable. |
| So maybe you'll have the Yogurt with Strawberries breakfast a couple of times (page 189), the Poached Salmon in Spinach Tortilla Wrap lunch twice (page 197) and the ginger Grilled Turkey Tenderloin dinner once (page 269).
A Note on Coffee. Coffee, like so many foods, can be a healthy choice if you drink it in moderation. That's a big "if" with coffee because so many people use coffee as more of a drug than a food. |

 A lot of them contain concentrated extracts of turmeric root, which is a potent anti-inflammatory, or ginger root. People might think turmeric and ginger are just common herbs, but they're also powerful medicines. There's a lot of very excellent work that's been done on a hops-derived extract, which is rich in a group of compounds called humulones. And these show every bit as effective anti-inflammatory activity as 400 mg of Ibuprofen, for 9 hours. |

Curcumin and Turmeric Root
Curcumin, a bright yellow spice, is obtained from the root of turmeric (Curcuma longa), a member of the ginger family. Native to Asia, curcumin is one of the oldest and most cherished anti-inflammatory herbs in Indian Ayurvedic medicine.
Turmeric root and curcumin are mild Cox-2 inhibitors but are not as powerful and not as dangerous as popular Cox-2-inhibiting drugs. |

 A Summary of General Principles Regarding Diet
• A half teaspoon of grated ginger taken with a pinch of salt is an excellent appetizer and kindles AGNI, the digestive fire. Splashing cool water over your face, neck, and hands before meals also stimulates AGNI.
• Eat in a settled environment and quiet atmosphere, with a settled mind. Your company and environment should be pleasant. Do not work, listen to music, read or watch TV during meals.
• Always sit down to eat. Eat at roughly the same times each day.
• Eat neither too quickly nor too slowly (about 20 minutes) and without interruption. |

| It also has outstanding benefits in terms of immune system enhancement. ginger helps boost circulation in all the joints and extremities in the body. This is why many diabetics derive some benefit from ginger. It's more popularly known to help treat motion sickness or nausea. That's really only one of the minor uses of this herb, however. This herb is a fantastic tonifier, and this combination really works for reducing inflammation, joint pain and arthritis pain. |
