7 Foods Every Woman Must Eat

A suggestion: enjoy coconut and coconut milk.

Coconut contains medium chain triglycerides which are quickly absorbed by the body

and turned into fast energy: not stored as body fat.

I agree!  I make every attempt to bring veggies and fruit into the house, however, as noted, the price of any item that is good for you is expensive.  What is most irritating is, given that I am a senior, I have seen items that were once considered for the "poor" - i.e., non-fat milk,

(whole milk was the "health" choice years ago, and guess what, it was more expensive!) now, you find whole milk on sale, but not the fat free, or 2%.  Another item that was always for the "poor" - brown breads.  White bread was the expensive choice.  Now, you see just the opposite!!  It is disgusting.  A healthy population is a benefit to everyone, it is sad that grocery outlets etc, are too greedy and short-sighted to see this.  However, this is the way of the times it seems.  I could go on, but I think the point has been made.  Perhaps, as is the want of this country, we could organize and open a chain of markets that caters to IMPROVING HEALTH - NOT the BOTTOM LINE.  I think this could be accomplished without sacrifice, a profit is even possible. (Maybe not a private island)
