Recipe Notes

Got chronic bronchial flare-ups, sinus infections or asthma? Try radishes because they decongest, and they are said to prevent and shorten the duration of UTIs. Don’t know the difference between yogurt and kefir? It’s the kind of bugs (bacteria) present. Yogurt is the beer of probiotic dairy foods, while kefir is the champagne.
