Wellness Highlights From the Beginning I did not consume the recommended levels of water. Did not focus too much on foods that contained Vitamin D and E. Instead, too much intake on other vitamins. A couple more Kcals and I would have met my DRI goal.
In the End I was able to overcome few of my excess. Overcame many deficiencies. Consumed just nearly more than a bit of water than in the beginning. Now I intake more milk, fish, and iron.
Wellness Strategies
I need to make and eat foods that contain a moderate source of nutrients. Stop drinking sweetened drinks and have water instead. I should exercise regularly. I must consume more grains and vegetables and have half of my plate centered on fruits. I should build meals that are nutrient dense.
Peanuts
Peanuts grow underground as opposed to other nuts like walnuts that grow on trees. The planting and harvesting growing cycle takes four to five months, depending on the type of variety. Peanuts pack a high source of protein. Great source of potassium, magnesium, and phosphorous.
In the US, peanuts and peanut butter are the most popular nut choice and compromises 67% of all nut consumption.

2. Second Stage (Combining) After drying in the field, a combine separates the peanuts from the vines, placing the peanuts in the hopper and deposits vines back in the field. Freshly dug peanuts are placed into peanuts for further curing with forced warm air circulating through the wagon. In this final stage, moisture content is reduced to 10% for storage.
1. Preheat oven to 400. Mix together fig jam and mustard in a small bowl; set aside. 2. Place pretzels in a food processor, and pulse until coarsely ground. Transfer to a shallow bowl. 3. In a medium bowl, whisk together peanut butter, egg, water, salt, pepper and hot sauce. 4. Place flour in a large plastic bag. Add chicken breasts and shake to coat evenly. Dip chicken in egg mixture, then dredge in the pretzel crumbs, pressing coating lightly to adhere to chicken. Place coated chicken on a rack set over a baking sheet. Bake until chicken is cooked through, approximately 20 to 25 minutes. 5. To serve, divide fig mustard among six plates, and using the back of a spoon, smear it in a line across center of plate. Place a piece of chicken on top of jam, garnish with parsley, and serve hot.
