Quotes of the Day

Potatoes are extremely nutritious, high in potassium as well as in protein and easily digestible (much more so than rice). Tomatoes are also valuable as they contain vitamins and minerals, including lycopene-a powerful antioxidant that has been extensively researched in recent years and is reputed to boost immune competence. Other vegetables belonging to the nightshade family, such as green peppers and eggplants, are also used and have never shown any toxic effects. [2013] - Charlotte Gerson

With a few exceptions, such as glioblastoma or other aggressive brain tumors, as well as certain lung and liver cancers, solid organ tumors typically kill you only when they spread to other organs. Breast cancer kills only when it becomes metastatic. Prostate cancer kills only when it becomes metastatic. You could live without either of those organs. So when you hear the sad story of someone dying from breast or prostate cancer, or even pancreatic or colon cancer, they died because the cancer spread to other, more critical organs such as the brain, the lungs, the liver, and bones. When cancer reaches those places, survival rates drop precipitously. [2023] - Peter Attia

Once the couple marries, both lose "complete financial independence." Joint decision making is required and other qualities such as flexibility come into play. Income, investments and spending needs may vary greatly over the years. The ability to discuss and face these issues openly is vital to future harmony in the relationship. [2011] - Isabelle Fox

I love using limit orders because they allow me to go about my life without worrying about prices too much while the markets do their usual movements. I’m not a big fan of stop-losses. Volatile markets such as cryptocurrencies normally bounce back up from the lows as rapidly as they fall. That’s why by using a stop-loss order, you may end up getting out of your position prematurely and miss out on potential gains. Short-term traders are more likely to use stop-losses. Long-term investors are supposed to have made the risk-management calculation ahead of time, making sure they have enough time to wait things out. [2019] - Kiana Danial

To obtain adequate dietary calcium without using dairy foods, dentist Melvin Page recommended eating: salmon, oysters, clams, shrimp, other sea-foods, broccoli, beet greens, nuts, beans, cauliflower, figs and olives. Green vegetables that are very high in calcium come from the brassica family and include: broccoli, kale, bok choy, cabbage, mustard and turnip greens. Seaweed is another excellent source of calcium. Other sources of calcium could be taro root, and herbs. Canned fish with bones is high in calcium, but fresh fish will be much lower because the bones are not consumed. [2011] - Ramiel Nagel
