SubsttitueTry Capers For Salt
- Anticarcinogens: Capers and their uses on Dr. Oz show and was impressed to add them to my diet because of the salt (substitute) benefits along with their healthy influences. Celery and/or/ its seed will act as a salt substitute also. Dash is a salt sub found at the super markets in many varieties of flavors.
- In Greek popular medicine, a herbal tea made of caper root and young shoots is considered beneficial against rheumatism. Dioscoride (MM 2.204t)[clarification needed] also provides instructions on the use of sprouts, roots, leaves and seeds in the treatment of strangury and inflammation.Medicinal propertiesDifferent flavonoids were identified in caper bush and capers: rutin (quercetin 3-rutinoside), quercetin 7-rutinoside, quercetin 3-glucoside-7-rhamnoside, kaempferol-3-rutinoside, kaempferol-3-glucoside, and kaempferol-3-rhamnorutinoside. Rutin has no known toxicity. Capers contain more quercetin per weight than any other plant.In fact, the hydrolysis products of indol-3-ylmethyl glucosinolates have anticarcinogenic effects. Glucosinolates are known to possess goitrogenic (anti-thyroid) activity. Rutin and quercetin may contribute to cancer prevention. Selenium, present in capers at high concentrations in comparison with other vegetable products, has been associated with the prevention of some forms of cancer.
- In ancient Greece caper is known as a carminative.In Biblical times, the caper berry was apparently supposed to have aphrodisiac properties; the Hebrew word abiyyonah (אֲבִיּוֹנָה) for caperberry is closely linked to the Hebrew root אבה, meaning "desire". The word occurs once in the Bible, in the book of Ecclesiastes, at verse 12:5.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caper There is a difference between flower bud, berries and root.
- I loved the sauce on Dr Oz show which was a lemon capa salad dressing. I like salt, fresh grown pepper i.e. with my salads for accent.Sodium is 2960 mg 197%2 g protein and 3 g fiber

You can gain weight on taking away too much fat! You will be able to tell if you listen to your body as it can balance out the right fats. You will have cravings for fats ex(fried chicken and want to just eat the skin i.e.) Remember to listen to the body as it has experience stored in your computer and know what it needs, even if you've done something wrong. This storage of past experiences will tell you what your doing wrong. Green tea is a know fat blocker...
The tea is a weaker beverage like as it comes in nature and doesn't seem to do this make outrageous demands. Green tea will stop depression, as it speeds up the metabolism. Don't get too carried away by adding too much at a one time...it will work against you.

WILD FOOD FROM EDIBLE GARDEN FLOWERS
"Wild Food and Recipes UK. Foraging and creating great recipes with flavor's forgotten".. for more photo and the rest of this study click to this site. It's excellent.
The Victorians started the craze in the UK by adding garish flowers to their main courses to get one up on their guests, there is no doubt that the poor must have eaten them as a food-stuff way before the Victorians existed although this would be difficult to prove.
Some of the other benefits of eating Wild and Garden Flowers are that they are rich in nectar and pollen and studies have shown pollen to be nutritious with vitamins and minerals. Roses and especially rose hips, are very high in vitamin C. Dandelion blossoms are high in vitamins A and C while the leaves are loaded with iron, calcium, phosphorous and vitamin A and C. Marigolds and Nasturtium are also a good source of vitamin C.

Guide to Edible Wild and Garden Flowers (UK)
This is a Prepper's post: plant what's edible but with no chemicals
"The culinary use of Edible flowers dates back many years with the first recorded mention is thousands of years old. Many different cultures use flowers in their traditional foods. The Romans used mallow, rose and violets. Italian and Hispanic cultures gave us stuffed squash blossoms, and Asian Indians use rose petals in many recipes. Did you know Chartreuse, a classic green liqueur developed in France in the seventeenth century, boasts carnation petals as one of its secret ingredients?

Picking them; be careful when collecting flowers, make sure that you pick the flowers early in the day and handle the flowers gently so as not to damage them. Shake gently to remove insects. Never pick where they have been sprayed even near garden lawns spays or along roads. Wash them gently when you get home if you must, and pat them dry. You can store them for a few hours in the fridge if you put them in an airtight bag.
There are many flowers and blossoms that can be enjoyed both fresh and cooked. It's hard to buy edible flowers, but quite easy to grow most of them in your garden including the Wild varieties which can now readily be found and bought online. Since flowers are best when eaten soon after harvest, growing your own edible flowers makes even more sense as it takes less time to get them form plant to plate.
However, you need to really use caution when choosing edible flowers. Only eat flowers when you are absolutely certain they are edible. Never eat a flower that has been treated with a pesticide that was not labeled for use on food products. If you are choosing from your own garden flowers to eat, be certain you know your flowers as not all flowers are edible. Some can cause serious stomach problems and some are quite poisonous.
Finally, some Edible Wild Flowers are becoming rare, so sometimes more urban foraging techniques such as plundering your own gardens flowers is the way forward be aware of the rare and the quite common. You may have a lot of edible flowers growing in your garden all ready and you don't even know it so why don’t you read on. Remember, only eat flowers that you are 100% sure that you have positively identified as safe to eat!
So here it is, a long list, probably not a definitive list but a good starting point of Wild plants and Garden plants that are edible and what they look, smell and taste like! Enjoy!
The Ultimate Guide to Edible Wild and Garden Flowers (UK book)
Allium family: All members of the Allium family are edible. The tastes range from mild onion and leek to strong onions and garlic. The flowers tend to have a stronger flavor than the leaves and the young-developing seed heads are even stronger. You can eat the leaves and flowers in a salad and the leaves can also be cooked in a soup for flavorings. The flowers are delicious on chives in particular! (Heirloom seeds no GMO SEEDS)
Angelica: Depending on the variety, flower range from pale lavender-blue to deep rose. It has a flavor similar to liquorice. Angelica is valued culinary from the seeds and stems, which are candied and used in liqueurs, to the young leaves and shoots, which can be added to a green salad. Because of its celery-like flavor, Angelica has a natural affinity with fish. FOR MORE WONDERFUL PHOTOS AND IDEAS TO WHAT WE CAN EAT CHECK OUT THE REST OF THIS SITE AND PG: I WILL "PIN" THESE TOO.

HOW TO USE CULINARY HERBS, AND RECIPES
Culinary Herb and Folk MedicineFresh Organically Grown Culinary Herbs is best in season. Spring time for planting culinary herbs they are becoming so expensive in markets. These herbs (vegetables) are our natural anti~microbial. Germs, parasites,fungi, micro toxin's, i.e., is all diseases beginnings. Adopt a herb plant in an kitchen windows, planter boxes, grow parsley and circulations next to rocks or cement foundations. It will keep it warm and endure all winter long. Experiment. and add one a year planting them in different spots about your yard till you find the just the right area. It will be worth it. Fresh herbs are very high in nutrition, and are anti~viral (parasites infections) that's why they were always used with meats in history.
Parsley will help with food poisoning. A garnish worth eating and noting. Vegetables, Fruits and Herbs are very expensive and are the most nutritious foods we can eat, AND THE AID WEIGHT LOSS. Mexican parsley, Cilantro, get heavy metal from the body.
Most, cut back on buying these products and spent more on needed vitamins due to lacking nutrition needed to keep healthy. Why? Eat fresh more culinary herbs in your diet. Grow them, use them fresh. Fresh herbs are better for us. Costly at supermarket's but easily grown. Most culinary herbs are perennial when you find the right areas in your yard to plant.
Experiment. You can home grow basil, cilantro (takes metal out of the body), dill (lactating mothers), horse radish (need the root to start), parsley, marjoram, mints, oregano, rosemary, sage, tarragon, thyme and coriander (good for diameter's). Basil is king of the culinary herbs. Great in seasonings, soups, salads, meats, prestos, sauces. It helps with digestion (most culinary herbs do), crushed leaves on bug bites, relieves nausea, fevers, acne and gas pains, dental troubles, fights plaque on teeth, and parasitic infections. "Let food be your medicine". My daughter, in the photo, Katherine makes the best egg omelet using basil. She scramble 2 eggs, chopped basil with 2 T. cream. While still warm, add shredded cheese, rest of the toppings are already dice; chicken, avocado, fresh tomato and topped with sour cream. I add chopped green onion and canned jalapeno peppers to mine making another version. This is a good omelet but nothing without basil. I always have a pot of basil growing inside and outdoors.
Sauces: Pour olive oil, garlic, basil, vinegar, salt, honey or molasses to your taste, into a pint jar and cover with a tight lid. Marinade in refrigerator at least 4 hours or 2 days. Serve with fresh tomatoes over or when grilling them.
Omega-3 is Essential to the Human Body<---click You can preserve basil in olive oil and/or vinegar. And by drying basil in a dark place, bundling, tying, and hanging it upside down. Small amounts dry will in a paper bag. I plant basil in a cute container in my kitchen window. Rubbing against it will give off a beautiful scent to your kitchen.
Getting a bagged soil from the garden store, planting the seeds, water once, then cover with plastic till germinated. (uncover when you see them pop up or they will mold fast) You won't have to water, or disturb the soil, just watch them pop up. After they are up you can thin and transplant some elsewhere. It's easy and it's a healthier way to live growing fresh culinary herb in the spring. And remember to share with your neighborhood. It's a wise thing to do.
Basil is recommended for cold and flu,mix 1 ounce with 1 pint of boiled water and steep for 5-20 minutes Rosemary is good fried in butter with red potatoes, dressings, in side of baked chicken etc.. This little herb is loaded with minerals. Chives is from the onion family. Add to sour cream, salad dressings etc. Thyme great in chicken n dumpling and potato salad etc., and is... Recommended for fevers, cough and congestion.
The thyme oil is FDA-approved as a topical cough suppressant and decongestant. For tea, mix 1/2 ounce per pint of boiled water; steep for 5-20 minutes. Take 1-2 cups a day for symptoms.
Spearmint is recommended for colds, flu, and cough. Mix 1/2 ounce per pint of boiled water and steep for 5-20 minutes. Very similar to Peppermint an expectorant and decongestant. Not for children.
The pungent aroma may trigger choking in infants and young children. It basically goes like this: Garlic and onions boost the immune system, helping to prevent colds. Basil, cumin and turmeric help prevent cancer of the bladder and prostate. Peppers, such as Black pepper, jalapenos, hot red peppers and mustard all boost your metabolism for several hours, which helps burns fat.
Cinnamon, Fenugreek and etc., helps metabolized sugar, keeping you sugars level and steady. A book on the subject is "Simple Hospitality" on how to grow herbs. (a girl-friend present) Sage for colds and flue an anti fungal, most culinary herbs are. The tradition of passing the knowledge down to use certain herbs with meats definitely has merit. Mix 1/4 ounce per pint of boiled water, then steep for 10 minutes. Take no more than 3 cups a day for 10 days.
Sage contains thujones, which causes convulsions in large doses. Easy to grow in dry places. Garlic, used for cold and flu. To prepare garlic oil, place 8 ounces of peeled, minced cloves in a jar. Add enough olive oil to cover it and allow to stand for about 3 days. (shaking a few times a day) Strain, discard the cloves and store the oil in a cool place.Take 1 teaspoon of garlic oil per hour while symptoms persist. Garlic contains amino acid derivative, alliin. When crushed or minced, the enzyme is released which converts the alliin to allicin. Allicin is an antibiotic equivalent to 1 percent penicillin. Garlic also thins the blood and prevents clotting, which may help in controlling high blood pressure, and prevent heart attack. It's a good herb to always have on hand. Garlic will also serve as a source of sulfur for the liver to detoxify items in the body. Garlic also helps normalize the gut flora by killing parasites and yeasts that should not be there. Olive oil and garlic sauce 1/2 cup and 1 Tbs. of olive oil 4 cloves garlic 1 1/2 tsp salt freshly ground pepper 4 Tbs finely chopped flat leaf parsley Use were garlic/parsley is needed, good over meats.
Herbs De Napa: 6 tablespoons dried thyme leaves 3 tablespoons fennel seed 2 1/2 tablespoons dried summer savory leaves 1 1/2 tablespoons dried rosemary leaves 1 1/2 tablespoons crumbled bay leaves 1 1/2 tablespoons dried lavender flowers (this is already a good herbal formula) use safflower or another herb here.
Comfrey: I grow and use so I will add here. Root cuttings; Soak 2 ounces in 1 quart of water overnight; simmer for 30 minutes then strain. Add 6 ounces of honey. Take 2 Tablespoons 3-4 time a day. Comfey is often reguarded as an herbal panacea. ..."has healing effect on every organ in the body..." Perhaps? recent research show that this herb contains several carcinogens. The safety of comfrey is hotly debated in herbal circles.
Oregano: Origanum ValgareL. Lamiaceae. Enl... Wild marjoram, in the Mint family (basil, oregano, sage, mint), 50 types of oregano, perennial, likes drier conditions. The phenolic compounds are different significantly to marjoran. Use for problems such as; Respiratory, gas, urinary tract , menstruation, arthritis, swollen glands, lack of perspiration, itching, aids digestion, and candida. Is a fungus~tina versicolor, a microbial, Listeria bacteria...this herb has lots of germ fighting abilities and keeps bacteria at bay and Note...keeps food from spoiling. Learn to use and grow this herb.
Fenugreek This herb I started using because of the reputation it's getting for the use in diabeties. I like what it's been doing for myself so I'm featuring it with the culinary herb section of this blog. The part used is it's seed. The indians liked the fresh leaves eaten as a vegetable. It has a taste similar to spinach. Some uses: diabeties, constipation (mild but effective), lactation stimulant, inhibits bacterial and fungal growth, high cholesterol, stomach,kidney stone issues, developing colon cancer and relieves gout pain. It's a member of the legume family and used in meats and vegetables. The caution are, not before surgeries, not durning pregnancy in higher than normal doses. It is not to be taken with anticogulant (blood thinners), antipletalet drugs, with pain relievers, and with bitter melon, ginkgo biloba and garlic herbs. Great for a natural laxative. Take the Fenugreek Oil for your daily Omega's. http://www.epicurious.com/ and see http://www.mericola.com/ Click here-->Herb Organic Planting and here Oregano
