Hello again,
I do realize that it has been a very long time since I actually posted anything on this page but that is going to change next month. I have so much exciting events coming up that will all be posted on this page.
Right now I am going to post something that I found to be very educational and informative. I hope you all take it and utilize it for your own personal health.Came across this and figured I would share. Who knew!!
These are called "Bay leaves"
Many people add bay leaves to foods especially jollof rice (Nigerian), red meat and poultry but do you know why bay leaves are added to food?
When asked why, some reply: to add flavor to the food👐
Do you know that If you boil some bay leaves in a glass of water and taste it, it will have no flavor?
Now why do you put bay leaves in the meat?
The addition of bay leaves to meat converts triglycerides to monounsaturated fats, and for experimentation and confirmation:
Cut the chicken in half and cook each half in a pan and place on one bay leaf, and the other without bay leaf and observe the amount of fat in both pans.
