Mangoes originated in India over 5,000 years ago, and mango seeds traveled to the Middle East, Eastern Africa, and South America as early as 300 to 400 B.C.E. Today, most of the mangoes we eat in the U.S. are grown in South and Central America, Mexico, and Haiti. Though mangoes are considered a stone fruit, they’re botanical cousins of cashews and pistachios (who knew?). Mango Health Benefits They are loaded with fiber....
However, many people are intimidated to grow them and are not sure what to do with them when it’s time to harvest. But don’t worry, we have you covered. Whether you’re cooking or crafting, here are our favorite tips for getting the most out of your herb garden. Seeds require a specific environment for germinating and hardening off before you plant them. For the same price (and often less) as a packet of seeds, you can purchase starter plants for basic culinary herbs like basil, rosemary, sage, thyme, parsley, and English lavender....
A Credit Karma survey found that 34 percent of employed respondents would accept a job that paid less than what they were making if it entailed a more flexible work schedule. If you are in the market for a job and are in a position to choose between two of them, there can be a lot to consider. That’s especially true if you are looking to be more intentional with your job search and want to find a position that is right for you both financially and in terms of work-life balance....
Instead, hand wash your knives using mild dish soap. To prevent rust and damage to wooden handles, dry the knives immediately with a clean dish towel rather than letting them air-dry. Instead, try this safer method: Grab a microfiber cloth—even dry, this tightly woven cloth is capable of removing germs from touchscreen surfaces. If the screen is grimy and you have a specialized cleaning spray for tech devices, spritz the cloth lightly first, then wipe the screen and follow with a clean, dry cloth....
Recruit a friend to help you declutter Nothing says “clutter” quite like neglected and forgotten clothes, shoes, and accessories around the house. “We encourage going through all of your items and donating or selling unwanted items,” says Jimmy Seifert, a former buyer at the Container Store. It can be difficult to let go of pieces that have memories attached to them—like that dress you wore to a wedding 10 years ago—so that’s where a friend or family member comes in....
Make miso broth. Flavor packet? Fine. But miso paste is perfection. Next time you make ramen, skip the sodium-filled spice packet and use a spoonful of miso paste to flavor your broth instead. Miso will add a heavy hit of (salty, savory, seriously addictive) umami flavor to your ramen, plus it’s a natural source of gut-healthy probiotics. Look for miso paste at Japanese grocery stores, Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and most mainstream supermarkets....
I like to call myself a music lover but honestly compared to my dad, I don’t even like music. Just to give you some idea of how much my dad loves music, he took a year off from working and created what he calls “Denny’s Opus,” a compilation of his top 1000 songs and 100 movies ever. And he didn’t just put them on CDs in order from 1-1000, no that would be too easy....
And if you’re like most Americans, you’re not getting nearly enough. According to the 2020–2025 U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans, women ages 31 to 50 should get 25 grams of fiber daily, and men in the same age range should aim for 31 grams per day. While most people believe they get enough fiber, more than 90 percent of women and 97 percent of men fall short of these recommendations, largely due to the overconsumption of processed foods and drinks, which have been stripped of their fiber (and much of their nutrient value)....
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, “Garlic is among the oldest known horticultural crops.” Researchers have found references to garlic in both Egyptian and Indian cultures dating back some 5,000 years. “There is clear historical evidence for its use by the Babylonians 4,500 years ago and by the Chinese 2,000 years ago,” the USDA adds. “Some writings suggest that garlic was grown in China as far back as 4,000 years ago....
“When it comes to your skin, the only way to treat a rash or a mark is if you have the correct diagnosis to begin with,” says explains Joshua Zeichner, MD, a board-certified dermatologist in New York City. “Not knowing what you are treating means that the rash won’t go away, which may be uncomfortable, or in some cases may even be harmful to your health if the spot is cancerous....

Stretching not only increases your flexibility and range of motion, but it will also improve your performance in workouts and all physical activity. By stretching, you increase blood flow to your muscles and even help relieve stress and calm your mind, and it’s one of the best ways to ward off injury. “Regular stretching is one of the most important keys to preventing injuries during normal everyday activities as well as health and fitness programs,” says Michael Pappas, PT, the CEO and cofounder of Pappas Physical and Hand Therapy in Providence, R....
Add fresh mulch to your garden beds Not only does mulch keep weeds at bay, but it also gives your garden beds a neat and orderly appearance. A darker color like black or brown also makes flowers, plants, and walkways pop. However, be careful not to purchase a mulch with manure incorporated, unless the beds are far enough away from your house. It smells terrible! Get your lawn in shape Great news: Less is more when it comes to your lawn....
