in answer to yesterday's article, I went looking for something to make for myself. Two questions came to mind: Could one make chickpea hummus with carrots, and can one blend cheese into hummus? Various people do include carrots in their hummus. I then found a recipe for a cottage cheese hummus, and figured I could swap in my cheese sauce instead. While digging these up, I found another way to prepare dry chickpeas that doesn't involve soaking all night. I enjoyed my first meal with the dip, and then went to my database. As noted in yesterday's article, vitamin's A,C, and E have been noted to help with anti-inflammatory action in the lungs. Both A and E are fat soluble, and that is provided in my dip with the cheese sauce made from heavy cream. Parsley is in the list of foods containing beneficial compounds for lung health and healing, boasting 9 of the 29 compounds that bring down inflammation and help restore function, Onions contain both cysteine and quercetin, both found by researchers to be beneficial in the quest for better lung health.

We were recently approached at the Rutland Flea Market, with whether or not we had any teas that would be recommended for someone suffering COPD. The day was slow, so Ashley began looking up a few studies online, sent me a couple links, and when we got home, I began my own research. Various compounds found in food, herbs and spices have been observed for their ability to address some aspect of COPD. A few of the herbs are in one or more of the teas we sell on Ashley's Ashtree Wildcrafting table, and we have zeroed in on the specific tea to offer the inquirer when we see them again. COPD is a multi-faceted condition that can begin a number of ways, including smoking or being around smokers, poor long-term dietary choices, age, and bacterial lung infections. The COPD sufferer needs to assess their lifestyle, their environment, and their daily food habits if they want to begin the road to healing.
