Hello Everyone,

Listen up avocado lovers! I just read a study that just eating half of an avocado a day can slash your appetite a whopping 40%! This is a finding from Loma Linda University, who explain that avocados are a chock-full of fiber - 12 grams per fruit - and obviously super-healthy fats that are not only super-filling but kill cravings too!

I have recently found a great recipe that I simply love eating for breakfast or a snack and it's soooo simple.


4 slices of whole-grain bread
2 teaspoons coconut oil
1 avocado, thinly sliced
Salt
Red-pepper flakes
A squeeze of lemon

Toast bread slices, and spread each with coconut oil. Top with avocado, and season with salt and red-pepper flakes. Finish with a squeeze of lemon.

I personally don't use the salt, but do everything else! It's awesome, so nutty and delicious!

Hint 1: Can you guess the culprit that can age your lovely hands?

Well, it's driving! Hands on the steering wheel actually soak up damaging UV rays through the windshield and side windows. You can avoid sunspots and skin thinning by using a moisturizer with SPF 15 year round.

Hint 2: Blow away those wrinkles!

No, I'm not talking about wrinkles on your face, but
wrinkles on a plastic shower curtain or tablecloth. If either are full of creases or wrinkles try gently waving your blowdryer set on low over the wrinkles. As the plastic softens, the wrinkles will disappear!
