Diet Perk: Eggs hold great satiety powers (they will stick with you for a long while after you've eaten them).


Personal Note for those who suffer from digestive upset: The daughter of a sailor, I was born with a stomach disorder which required life-saving surgery. The surgical procedure had only been discovered five years prior to my birth, or otherwise I would have died. The surgical procedure was performed in a California Naval hospital.

Unfortunately, I have always been plagued with tummy issues - and in my experiences I have discovered that ingesting one the following natural foods works for me in ridding an acidic tummy: a dill pickle, a Tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a cup of water, or a piece of raw potato.

These notes are not intended to take the place of your personal doctor - and as another note, I only use these methods for occasional flare-ups. And of course, if you suffer from frequent digestive issues - it's time to get to your doctor for a check-up.
