Junk Food?
Maybe Not…….
Pork Rinds: These
puffy snacks are literally cut from pigskin, and then they are
deep-fried. A one ounce
serving contains zero carbohydrates, 17 grams of protein and 9 grams
of fat. This is more
protein and less fat than in a serving of potato chips and the pork
rind fat is unsaturated fat and most of that is oleic acid, the same
healthy fat found in Olive oil.

Fresh
Air
 When
was the last time you had your air ducts and your furnace and AC
cleaned? If you can’t
remember, it is time to do it now.
Every time you run your air conditioner or furnace pollutants
are re-circulated throughout your air tight home, contaminating the
air you breathe also aggravating asthma and allergies.
