Spice up!

Most of us don’t use spices and herbs nearly enough. Because I love using spices and herbs when I cook, my pantry is always filled with my favorites. This is a partial list of the ones we should keep handy in the kitchen and their beneficial properties:
■ Basil: good for the heart, antioxidant, antibacterial
■ Black pepper: helps the absorption of nutrients
■ Cayenne and all hot peppers: boosts metabolism, increases circulation
■ Cinnamon: improves circulation, antimicrobial
■ Cloves: protection from environmental toxins, anticancer properties
■ Coriander and cilantro (the leaves of the coriander plant): lowers
blood sugar, good for detoxification
■ Cumin: helps immune system, anticancer
■ Ginger: helps digestion, anti-inflammatory
■ Oregano: antimicrobial, antioxidant
■ Parsley: promotes good breath, contains antioxidants and antitumor
agents
■ Rosemary: stimulates immune system, improves digestion
■ Sage: good for the brain, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant
■ Thyme: good for lung function, antioxidant, antibacterial
■ Turmeric: good for the heart, anti-inflammatory, anticancer properties
I've written more about incorporating herbs and spices into your diet in my book, "Food: What the Heck Should I Eat?" foodthebook.com
