Summer Time and the Eating is Easy! (From the Summer 1998 issue)
If we are what we eat, then some of us are gradually assuming the shapes of Big Macs and Dove Bars. Along with these lumpy forms come such unlovely conditions as hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, and joints that creak and groan.
Is there a way to turn round into slim and not feel starved, deprived, and miserable? Indeed there is.
Fresh fruits and vegetables from Chicago area farmers markets will satisfy your appetite and your pocket book and start you on the way to a healthier you.
Every week from late June to late October, you can revel in the glories of a farmers market near you. Come early and enjoy the fresh morning air, the friendly shoppers and growers, the sights of fresh produce, flowers and herbs. Buy fruits and vegetables grown in Illinois and our neighboring states, not imported from exotic foreign shores. Choose seasonal items, many of them organically grown. Questions? You can get the answers directly from the growers.
There are many side benefits from increasing the fruits and vegetables in your diet, in addition to great taste. If you don't boil them to death or drown them in butter or sour cream, you'll have soul-satisfying dishes that are low in calories and high in antioxidants and vitamins.
