Immunonutrition Dinner: Salmon, Baby Carrots & Papaya/Cilantro Salsa


ORIGINAL RECIPES

by Dr Margaret Aranda




This is a simply fabulous dinner for two or three. You can

easily multiply the recipe, make the salsa on the morning of the

dinner, and cook the carrots for longer than the stated time.
The goal here is to get the house smelling wonderfully, serve

up a healthy meal, and have a fantastic presentation that is

sure to be an eye-pleaser for your guests.  


And if you clean (scrub it quickly for immediate re-use)  

the dishes as you go along, you will not have a huge mess on

your hands. We use the same pot for the carrots twice , and

we use the same skillet for the salmon twice also, as we

return the dish for more flavor and the finishing touches ! 



Menu:


Salmon with Dill and Olives

Baby Carrots with Dill, Parsley, and Garlic

Papaya with Cilantro and Tomato Salsa

Water




Papaya and  Cilantro Tomato Salsa 


1/2 cup fresh papaya, chopped

3/4 cup fresh tomatoes, chopped

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped


Place all items in a small serving bowl and refrigerate to cool

down while the other items are cooking. Sure to be a crowd-

pleaser and a great pairing with the salmon and dill. Go

ahead and throw away the stems and core of the tomato,
cleaning your counter before proceeding with the carrots and

Salmon. You'll be glad you did, and the kitchen will look

much cleaner. Serves 2 or 3.

WHAT ARE SIGNS OF NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCIES IN OUR KIDS?

by Dr. Margaret Aranda



So...are you ready to learn? This is the world of cellular & molecular biology, immunology, free radicals, chronic 
metabolic syndrome, inflammation, bacteria, antigens, 
vaccinations (Screech! I know), cancer, chemotherapy,
flavonoids, apples, barbecued hamburgers, the low glycemic
diet for life, quality of life, and ... most importantly..... 
Quality of Life (QoL). I'll walk you through, a step at a time.
No worries. 

"We can Get Good at This!"


I think we should start off the topic of "Immunonutrition" by
FIRST talking about NUTRITION and:

(1) Our children; 
(2) Awareness of childhood nutritional deficiencies and the
lasting effects they can have:

CHILDREN: 10 SIGNS OF NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCIES:

1. "Flat Head" Syndrome 

2. Delayed Speech

3. Dry skin/hair

4. Hyperactivity 

5. Cavities 

6. Tooth crowding

7. Many colds/Flus

8. Moodiness/Crankiness

9. Anxiety/Depression

10. Obesity

The SECOND subject is the IMMUNE SYSTEM in relation to nutrition. The Immune System fights bacteria, cancer, inflammation, and other "invaders" that are "foreign" to our bodies. It is a defense system. We can manipulate it UP to fight cancer, or we can manipulate it DOWN so we don't reject a kidney transplantation.

So, Using Good Nutrition + to Boost the Immune System =

"IMMUNONUTRITION."
