Cassia and Cinnamon

I have an excellent book, Healing Spices: How To Use 50 Everyday and Exotic Spices to Boost Health and Heart Disease, by Bharat B. Aggarwal, PhD with Deborah Yost. (I would also recommend checking out the book, AntiCancer, 2nd edition by David Servan-Schreiber, MD, PhD. Dr. Schreiber, a medical doctor and a cancer survivor, has written about foods and habits that can help one to survive cancer or to prevent it. See www.anticancerways.com.) (And see, Healthy at 100: The Scientifically Proven Secrets of the World’s Healthiest and Longest-Lived Peoples by John Robbins

On page 80 of Healing Spices, it mentions that what we commonly call cinnamon in the USA is generally not “true cinnamon,” it’s cassia.  “Cassia cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia) and true cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) belong to the same botanical family (Cinnamomum.) They also look alike…Cassia is  the sweeter and stronger of the two-and the one preferred throughout most of the world (including the US) as a culinary spice. It’s also the version that was used in all the studies discussed in [the chapter on Cinnamon in the book.]“ In some places, such as England, it is not legal to label Cassia as cinnamon. (p.80) (The book includes great recipes using spices, some of which you may never have heard of)

Cool Frozen Dessert Recipe

I made this. I like it.

(Suitable for vegans and vegetarians)

(1) Ripe Bananas. Mush them up. (or mash them up). Mush well enough so they can mix well with the other 2 (dry) ingredients.

(2) Cinnamon

(3) Pure Cocoa Powder (the real stuff; cocoa without the added stuff.)

(4) Optional: Add some soy milk (or oat milk, or almond milk or hemp milk or flax milk {that’s a new one, eh!}. You can use whatever flavor you like. If you use chocolate you may not need to add much or any cocoa.)

-Mix the mushy bananas with the cinnamon and cocoa (and soy milk). You can use a spoon to do this. No mixer necessary.

-Freeze.

-Bon Appetit. (Now I sound like a real chef.)

As for quantities of ingredients: Experiment.

Calories, Fat, etc. No analysis at this time has been done.

(I like to use as many organic and fair trade products as possible.)

Some quotes I like…

From: Keep Love in Your Heart, Little One by Giles Andreae (Children’s Book)

Keep Love in Your Heart, Little one. Reach out to the world like a beautiful flower stretches out to the warmth of the sun.

So, when you get knocked down…look up at the sky without fear, for sometimes we need to be flat on our backs, before starlight begins to appear.

You live as though life’s one huge present unwrapping a bit every day.

From the Movie, August Rush:

The Music Is All Around Us; All You Have To Do Is Listen.

My Heart

I listened to my heart.
I heard this beautiful melody.
My heart beating rhythmically.
My heart beating.
My heart singing the song it sings everyday, even when I am not listening.
My heart keeping me alive.

How grateful I am to have a heart.
How grateful I am that even when I am not thinking of my heart, it is thinking of me.
How grateful I am to have a heart.
How grateful I am  to have this moment to live, and hopefully I will have the next moment and the next and the next moment to be grateful.
How grateful I am to be.
