All things are impermanent, including websites. Life keeps changing, and I no longer have the time to tend the Joy of Mindful Cooking. It's been a wonderful point of connection with thoughtful people around the world for the past 12 years, and I will be leaving with a heart full of gratitude for all of you. I plan to leave the website up for a couple of weeks so everyone can download the recipes that call to you. I expect to take it down in the middle of March, on or around the 15th. Wishing you both joy and mindfulness in your cooking!
Warmly, Eve .

Should we really be taking antioxidants? Here is an article that made me question what I always thought was established truth. The author offers reasons to believe that antioxidant supplements may actually interfere with nature's plan for protecting us. He makes the case that we do best to eat plants that have been subjected to stressors such as grazing or drought and developed compounds to survive these threats. When we consume these plants, they stress us as they would other grazers and we are strengthened as a result.
