“Ever wondered why some produce goes straight into the fridge while others are fine on the counter? 🍎🥦 It all comes down to their ripening process and sensitivity to temperature. Fruits like berries, leafy greens, and most veggies thrive in the cool, moist environment of the fridge, preserving their freshness. On the flip side, items like tomatoes, bananas, and potatoes prefer room temperature, as refrigeration can actually affect their texture and flavor. It’s all about finding the perfect climate for each piece of produce to keep them at their peak!”

Happy Friday! Today I wanted to focus on heart health as it is something we need to talk about.

According to the Canadian Heart and Stroke Foundation
- More women die of stroke then men and if they survive they have a worse outcome.
-Post menopausal woman have an increased risk of heart disease because their bodies no longer produce estrogen which provides protection of heart and brain health.
- Women with diabetes have a similar risk as men the same age..

If we can help reduce our risk by simply focusing on our fiber intake, why wouldn't we?

Happy Friday everyone!
Week 2 of "Fiber Friday's" focusing on how fiber helps with obesity.
I'm on my second week of tracking my fiber intake. I can definitely notice a difference with my cravings and how much I eat.
