Even if you eat lots of soy products like tofu, soymilk, protein bars, veggie burgers and the like, know that these are all processed soy products and not of the same benefit as whole soybeans. Whole soybeans are rich in isoflavones, protein, calcium and vitamins A and B, unlike their processed brethren. Check out these frozen (thus no preservatives) and organic pods from Seapoint Farms. I buy bags at a time to keep in the freezer and frequently make them (takes literally two minutes to boil!) and all my kids love them, great snack or side to dinner. Finally something fast and easy and delicious that you can feel good about.

Getting Over Heartbreak
How long does it take do get over heartbreak? I've heard the rule of thumb - expect it to take one half the time of the relationship to get over the split. Some recent stars have spoken out about their time of grief - Uma Thurman revealed it took over 4 years to heal after her public break with Ethan Hawke. Ryan Phillipe talked about 4 or 5 months when he couldn't get out of bed after his split with Reese. Answer: everyone's time frame will differ. Allowing yourself to grieve, accepting help and talking to friends are good healers. And check out this new trend: A Divorce Party!

Return of the Sunscreen
Oh right, I forgot, of course we have been wearing it all year long, especially up here in New York! Nonetheless its a good time to take stock of your sunscreen collection, throw out anything from last year, or that may have build-up around the neck. And visit this skin database website to see what has tested least toxic and most protective from the sun hazards in their sunscreen report. Btw, this website is bookmarked for all my cosmetics and skin care needs. Sponsored by the Environmental Working Group and so worthy.
