Fall is the time of year when we love cinnamon! At my house you will likely smell cinnamon sticks simmering on the stove and cinnamon powder being used in apple "everything" recipes using apples freshly picked at local orchards!
So when we found this article and learned of all the health benefits of cinnamon - we thought - we need to incorporate more of this good stuff into our diet! Cinnamon is great for treating colds and increases energy!
But cinnamon is just one of many "power-packed" foods included in this comprehensive list of natural foods, spices, peppers and powders you might want to incorporate into your diet to amp up your health! Maca root is described as being excellent for correcting hormonal imbalances caused by PMS and menopause!

The Ultimate Superfood Guide
I've had a love affair with avocados ever since I was a little girl and my Uncle lifted me up to pick one off a tree in his California garden. They are still my favorite. Living in the Northeast - they aren't quite as delish as Cali avocados - but I'm still a fan!
I eat one a day.... often in a rush - standing over the sink - cutting one open - spooning out the pit - then digging in! Sometimes I eat them plain - other times I drizzle olive oil, hummus or salsa in the center hole. That convenient pit hole is the perfect receptacle!
... and who doesn't love guacamole???!!!
Turns out these handy little goodies are also good for us - and not only for eating! Check out this great article from the "Huffington Post" to learn why avocados are a must have!
