January 2013
Greetings!

 

new year
Happy New Year!  
Got health goals for 2013?  This issue of our newsletter features some healthy & delicious tips to help you achieve those goals! 

Last month we launched our new 
website and we'd appreciate your feedback on it - ease of use, products featured, etc.  Thank you!  And remember to check our
Facebook page throughout the month for more news, recipes and specials!
 
Try a new spice this year!
marjoram carrots
Have you ever tried Marjoram?  Marjoram is great for digestion and as a sleep aid. It contains anti-bacterial properties and is used as an antiseptic in some cultures.  This spice is always in the "Top 10" list of potent preventers of heart disease and premature aging. 
And every time you flavor your meals with herbs or spices you are literally "upgrading" your food without adding a single calorie!

Marjoram is like oregano, but sweeter and more subtle. Use with beans, cheese, eggs, meats, mushrooms, pizza, potatoes, sauces, soups, stews, and vegetables.  Pictured is Kathleen's Marjoram Carrots - it just doesn't get any healthier and tastier than this!

Boost Your Metabolism
tea Studies have shown that green tea and coffee help to boost your metabolism.  Click links below to see the variety of coffees and teas available at Village Roaster.
 
Drinking tea is healthy because it contains flavonoids, which are powerful antioxidants that can help protect against cancer, heart disease, and stroke.
 
One of coffee's benefits may be a short-term increase in your metabolic rate.
