Good effort - thank you. By the way, soy is NOT good for us, except in its fermented form. The sooner that fad dies away, the better off we'll all be.

Thanks for this information, except for the soy milk, enjoy the others, plus a small amount of real dark chocolate, supposed to be good for the heart.

Thank you Gudrun. I have copied this and will paste it into the recipe book I keep on my computer. I too am trying the dark chocolate. And has anyone heard if they are still touting the use of dark ruby port, in moderation, as being good for you. Was it your heart?

Great list. Thanks, Gudrun. Pomegranate is also naturally high in antioxidants and pomegranate juice is yummy. I didn't know about black currants, but I like them!

I agree. To think that some manufactured pill will be better than natural food is just silly! Thanks for the post!
