It is hard to believe that baseball practice starts three weeks from today, for some reason it just doesn't feel it's time to start practice already. To start getting ready for the 1st practice of the season I went out and threw for the 1st time since August and I have say my arm was a bit rusty, I was on a 75 limit and my arm is a bit sore this morning. Today is last day of January and you talk about a month flying by January sure did and the shortest month of the year starts tomorrow. It looks like we are going to have very strange week weather wise with the temperatures this week, todays high is only suppose to be in the upper 30's, tomorrow the upper 40's, Wednesday near 70 and then on Thursday around 40 and there is a pretty good chance of rain on Thursday. Have a good day, MICKEY
Eat folate-rich foods: Leafy greens like kale, broccoli, spinach, asparagus, turnip greens, bok choy, legumes, sunflower seeds, oranges, melons, beets, and fortified whole grains
Why? Folate, also know as folic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin that is necessary for cell division, DNA synthesis, and healthy blood cell production. Research at the University of York and Hull York Medical School has found a link between depression and low levels of folate. The recommended daily allowance (RDA) for men and women is 400 micrograms and 600 micrograms for pregnant women. To keep you smiling, increase your intake of folate-rich foods. A cup of cooked lentils provides 90% of the RDA of folic acid. Plus, the fiber and protein will satisfy you longer, stabilize blood sugar, and also promote a better mood. Additional bonuses: Folate can also decrease homocysteine, an amino acid that is linked to heart disease. Low levels of folate can cause anemia, while pregnant women must increase their folate levels to prevent fetal neural tube deficiencies.
