I can't let the "Mango thing" go just yet.
I've been reading up on the nutritional value of the mango and let me tell you...the benefits are endless!
The mango is loaded with vitamins A and C first off. As we all know, vitamins A and C help protect us from certain cancers and heart disease. What I didn't know (and learned through my recent studies) is that the mango is so powerful that just one half of a mango provides 40% of the daily value of vitamin A that is required by the body for one day's supply. So go ahead, eat the whole mango! You'll really be ahead of the game then!
You certainly don't have to feel guilty about eating the whole thing either because it's only 70 calories for a half of a mango and not even a whole gram of fat (0.5g)! Now that is something to smile about. Something that is good to you AND good for you? Oh yeah! Eat up people!
They're usually in season from February through September and they actually come in four varieties: There's the Harden, which has a yellow hue w/a red-orange blush when it's ripe. Then there's the Keitt, that is green and may have a slight yellow blush when it's ripe. The third kind is called the Kent, that is greenish-yellow in color with the possibility of a red blush when it's ripe and lastly, the Tommy Atkins mango is red when it's ripe and incidentally has the highest fiber content of them all.
They are multi-use, multi-delicious and I do believe I'm going to get some mangoes in my life today.
They're also good if you have a stomach ache. Why? They contain an enzyme that may act as a digestive aid. Scientists are still working that part out but hey, it's worth a try right?
So eat some mango, put some delicious Malaysian Mango (http://tinyurl.com/cbl8u4) on your body, simply delight in it! It can only be good for you!

Happy Holidays!
Well, here we are again folks! Another holiday season is here and about to be gone, along with another year. Lately, I've been in a retrospective state of mind, like many others, I think, wondering where the year has gone so quickly. As I think about the goals I set for myself at the beginning of the year, it makes me feel so good to know that I've accomplished much of what I set out to do this year, what about you?
More than just accomplishing tasks or goals, I really set out to find my true happiness this year. In keeping with accomplishing a task that can take a lifetime to accomplish, I think I did pretty good this year.
My online business has come a long way from just one year ago. I am still very committed to making it a success, which, from what I understand, is a task in and of itself since most businesses fail the very first year. After the business storms I've weathered this year, it's not hard to see why.
It's so very hard to stay committed when times are tough and no one seems to be paying attention to you or your business. Trust me when I tell you, there have been times this year when I was tempted to just throw in the towel and rush back, as quickly as possible, to my old corporate organization. When you get used to security, it's really tough to give up security; especially a paycheck you can count on every two weeks like clockwork.
Yes, indeed, when you know your mortgage is due in seven days and you aren't sure your month end sales will gross you the money you need to get that payment in on time, the first thing you want to do is cry, "uncle, alright, now give me my money!" but, then you get that order online or you receive a phone call from an old customer who would like to make a purchase or you meet that person by chance who really 'gets you' or your products and then you're reminded of the reason why you set out on this crazy venture in the first place.
Why, you ask? Because if you have that true entrepreneurial spirit, you know that calling your own shots and flying by the seat of your pants is worth the risk. The potential reward is worth all of the struggle. The possibility that just around the corner is your big break is the reason why you keep believing that one day, one day soon, you will have proof positive that this will all have been worth it. Because, you are a Rhinocerous! You claim with unbridled glee, you have grown a thick skin, little did you know and not a cow.
Now, after all of that is said and done, have a look at my newly updated website! www.lapoluxuryspabaskets.com
