Northern Ice Tea

To make Northern Ice Tea, you first must have filtered water available, with a Pur water filter on your kitchen tap, or another type of filter. You then place filtered water in a water tank with a spigot, such as the Pur water filter-container (Pur 2 stage water dispenser available at Target online). You can remove the water filter from the dispenser tank. You place 3 Lipton Tea Bags into the water dispenser tank, and let sit for 6 hours, or so. You then add one tablespoon of Real Lemon, liquid concentrated lemon juice and stir. You place the dispenser tank with the Lemon Iced Tea into your refrigerator at let cool. You then have a great low calorie, low cost, drink of Iced Tea ready to drink. This is a great drink for diabetics and those who are on a diet. If you insist on making Sweetened Ice Tea (which I don't like), you can add Splenda, dietary sugar (sucrolose) to your tea.

A New Great Tasting Low Calorie Beer

Of course, we all know that Busch now puts out O'Doul's non-alcholholic beer. But, the problem is that O'Doul's is a high calorie beer, and so are most other regular beers. And, most light beers don't taste very good. There is a solutions to this. You see, celery stalk, which is used in salads, is a pleasant tasting food, about like the taste of hops in beer. And, the thing about celery stalk is this: eating celery stalk burns more calories than is contained in the celerly stalk. Thus, you could grind celery stalk up into a powder and use it as a natural additive in beer, and cut the net calories of beer by about 75%. I suggest that the beer companies get busy and try this outstanding idea right away.

Thanks, Tony Fejfar

Sugar Beet- Sugar and Sucralose

For many Americans, including blacks, and native americans, the consumption of too much raw sugar, or sucrose, can cause diabetes, a serious medical condition. However, this does not have to happen. In fact, much of the American sugar production comes from the processing of Sugar Beets, to produce sugar or sucrose. However, in the processing of Sugar Beets, what happens is that the cellulose, or fiber, naturally found in Sugar Beets is removed. Interestingly, if you simply leave the celllulose or fiber in the Sugar Beet "sugar", sucrlose is produced, rather than sucrose. The monetary cost of producing sucralose rather than sucrose or sugar is dramatically reduced, and nutritionally, sucralose is much better for you. You see, about one half of Sugar Beet Sugar as sucralose, is bonded to cellulose or fiber. Thus, the calorie content of the Sugar Beet sucralose is cut in half, or more, and the bonded sugar stores in the human body in such a way that sugar levels in the blood stream are moderated, eliminating both highs and low blood sugar. In this way, when a person is hungry, the body can do to long term stored sucralose and thus low blood sugar and the related symptoms of light headedness or even losing consciousness are eliminated. In fact, it appears that sucralose is even stored in brain tissue and has a postive effect on mental health. In the United States all soda pop should be made with natural, low calorie, sucralose, instead of raw sugar or saccharine or nutrasweet. (C)Copyright 2010 by Anthony J. Fejfar
