Avoid overcooking your food
In this section of Seattle Organic Restaurants I’m going to talk about not overcooking your food. Cooked foods have minerals, fats, carbs and protein but when you cook your food you destroy most valuable nutrients like enzymes, micronutrients, phytochemcials, vitamins and antioxidants. I think human beings are the only species that destroy most of the nutrients in their food before they eat it ... 
Fried Onions
In this section of Seattle Restaurants I’m going to talk about fried onions. Many people like fried onions in their food. Cuisines such as Indian, Italian, Persian, and Thai use fried onions for flavor extensively and once people get use to the taste, it is hard to give up the addiction. There are two things about fried onions in particular that are not necessarily good for you. First, many of the nutrients in vegetables and fruits are unstable and react quite fast to heat, air, water, and light. As soon as fruits and vegetables are picked they start to lose their nutrients, although at a very low rate initially. ....
5 reasons why you should avoid Canned food; All because they are harmful
In this section of Seattle Organic Restaurants I'm going to talk about hams of canned food. No logical, reasonable person would suggest that canned foods and canned fruits and vegetables are as good or better than fresh foods, vegetables, and fruits. It is obvious that fresh is good and retains most of its nutrients. This much, almost no one argues with. But the big question is how bad canned products are, really? Well the answer might surprise you or not ...
Avoiding plastic or BPA containers might not be enough to protect you against hormone-disruptive chemicals
According to a study published in the Nature Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology, avoiding BPA containers and personal products that contain phthalates might not be enough to protect people against toxic levels of BPA and phthalates.

Previous studies have linked phthalates to infertility in men and BPA to neurological problems, cancer, obesity, hyperactivity, stress and diabetes ...
Raw food & Losing Weight
In this section of Seattle Restaurants I’m going to talk about toxic hunger and food addictions. Our bodies go though anabolic and catabolic phases. In catabolic phase our body is busy digesting the food we just ate and is in glycogen storage or refueling phase, in anabolic phase our body is done digesting our foods and can rest, repair and rebuild itself and get rid of toxicity. Many people in catabolic phase feel toxic hungry but they aren’t actually hungry....
The Glowing Green Smoothie
You may ask yourself why most people have a hard time changing their diet even if they know what they are eating is toxic to their health. Well, the truth is that the food corporations spends millions of dollars on research to find out the combination of ingredients, additives and preservatives that are addictive and familiar to human taste. These toxic foods, additives and preservatives trigger the center of the brain so people get sudden pleasure after consuming them ...
Raw Onions
In this section of Seattle Organic Restaurants I’m going to talk about health benefits of onions. Onions have been grown natively in Middle East and Asia for thousands of years. The Egyptians used to pay their workers onions for building temples and pyramids. As early as the 6th century onions were known for their medicinal benefits in India. Onions were brought to US by Christopher Columbus and today Spain, Russia, US, India and China are among the largest producers of onions in the world. I do personally love adding onions to every dish that I make; it’s hard for me to imagine a kitchen without the taste and flavor of onions ...

Some vegetarians might even avoid calcium products such as toothpastes taken from animals ...
Natural Foods and Supplements
In this section of Seattle Organic Restaurants I’m going to talk about natural organic foods and supplements. You’ve probably heard of the expression “let the food be your medicine and let the medicine be your food”. Natural organic foods have many health benefits and are a high source of minerals, vitamins, nutrients, enzymes and antioxidants. The modern life style and the industrial pollution has made it difficult to get all the nutrients necessary for the body even from organic natural foods. Taking natural food supplements improves health and balances the minerals and nutrients in the body ...

Wild sockeye salmon
In this section of Seattle Organic Restaurants I’m going to talk about nutritional facts of wild sockeye salmon. Fish is full of nutrients like B vitamins, lean protein and omega 3 fatty acids. But unfortunately different fish contains different levels of mercury. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reported that women who had fish two times a week have high mercury blood concentration. Mercury contamination found in fish can cause damage to nervous system. Mercury has also been known to cause severe health issues like memory loss, birth defects and brain damage ...
Health Benefits of Organic Limes
In this section of Seattle Organic Restaurants I'm going to talk about health benefits of organic limes. It’s really hard for me to imagine a kitchen without the taste and smell of fresh limes.
