Wouldn't you like to enjoy a healthy life with the ones you love? Isn't it a great feeling to know you are doing what you can to improve your health and lifestyle? There are several different ways that you can improve life for you and your family.

We know that we should be eating more fresh vegetables and fruits. It's not always easy, but the long term benefits are worth the extra effort.

When it comes to vegetables, the leafy greens are supreme in quality. These supreme greens are loaded with vitamins, minerals and phytonutruents, so be sure to include these in your diet.

Green vegetables as well as others are loaded with natural enzymes to aid digestion. These enzymes are destroyed when cooked, so try to eat them raw when possible.

Some vegetables that are considered "Supreme Greens" would include spinach, kale, collard greens, dandelion greens, rapini and broccoli.

These "Supreme Greens" are loaded with natural vitamins, trace minerals, chlorophyll and phytonutrients. Nature knows best, and that's why these super vegetables are balanced so well.

They offer us maximum health benefits such as:

� Longer & healthier life � Stronger heart � Fiber to fight constipation � Energy � Many vitamins and nutrients in a balanced & natural form � Antioxidants to fight free radicals which cause disease � Weight loss � And many more�

When you eat fruits and vegetables try to eat as much organic produce as possible. This will cut back on pesticides and other poisons. This will lesson the strain on your organs.

The healthiest people in the world eat mainly fresh vegetables and fruits, preferably raw. Combining these with nuts, seeds and getting natural sunlight, keeps them in top shape.

Other things to consider are drinking enough pure water that's not polluted with fluoride, chlorine and human waste.

Exercise is very important also. Include some sort of fitness routine into your everyday routine, even walking will help.

So start eating your "supreme greens" veggies everyday and see the benefits. Begin by replacing some of those fast food meals that aren't even proper food with some good old natural vegetables.

Let's face it. We can't always eat all the vegetables and fruits that we should. It's even harder with all the fast foods and convenience foods available today in our busy lives. So what do we do to make sure we eat properly? No matter how hard we try it may not seem possible to get enough good quality nutrients from our diet.

If you just can't seem to eat as healthy as you would like then you may want to consider a supplement.

When choosing a supplement be sure it is made of top quality ingredients and as little processing as possible. Check the product to be positive it is made from all organic ingredients as well.

Although a supplement is not as good as whole food, sometimes you need to boost your diet with one. That's why they call it a supplement. It's not designed to replace good eating habits, but to reinforce your current diet.

Bulgarian Food Recipes

Bulgarian food is very tasty indeed, maybe because it has so many influences from the Arabic, Turkish, Greek and Western European cuisines.

Soups are very popular in Bulgaria; there's no lunch without soup. In summer, the most popular is a cold soup called 'tarator', prepared from yoghurt, water, cucumber, garlic, dill, nuts and a pinch of salt. Tourists also find it very refreshing.

For the rest of the year, there are:
1) 'zeleva chorba' (a kind of cabbage soup with fat meat, rice and pepper and a rather sour taste which makes it unpopular with foreigners); 'agneshka kurban chorba' (of Turkish origin, boiled mutton soup);

2) 'shkembe' (the most popular soup in the country, consisting of tripe, milk, water and spices; it is very a very good medicine for hangovers and must be consumed with chilly red pepper, garlic and vinegar).

Main courses bear the same weird names and are even tastier than the soups.

'Sarmi lozovlist' and 'zelevi sarmi' both consist of a mixture of minced meat and rice rolled in leaves - grape wine leaves for the former and sauerkraut leaves for the latter. They are sometimes cooked without meat!

Brought to Bulgaria centuries ago, 'musaka' is a dish of Greek origin. It is usually cooked from potatoes and minced meat but sometimes eggplants are used as a substitute for potatoes. There is also a vegetarian option available.

'Kavarma' is an aromatic combination of meat (beef, pork or lamb), chicken or fish, mushrooms, onion, tomatoes, carrots, pepper etc. It is served very hot in a clay pot.

'Giuveche', also cooked and served in a hot pot, contains meat or sausages, vegetables, cheese and eggs. You should not order it if you are too hungry as it takes a long time to cook.

The traditional Bulgarian salad is made of tomatoes, fresh cucumbers and cheese, sometimes also onion, peppers, olives and parsley. It is very tasty as the Bulgarian vegetables are grown naturally, without fertilizers which makes them a lot juicier than they are in western countries.

A very pleasant culinary adventure is a Bulgarian appetizer made of cheese, honey and basil. It may sound strange but its taste is amazing. Usually a bit of garlic is added for those who like it. 'Kiufte' is a traditional meatball prepared from minced meat with local spices. In Bulgaria it is consumed as a main course with salad, chips, pickles or other garnish. It is prepared in a frying pan but it may also be cooked with sauce as stew or as a soup with pasta or potatoes.

Among desserts, the most popular in the area are: 'halva' (milled cereals or seeds, oils and nuts), 'lokum' (a soft sticky sweet rolled in sugar), 'baklava' (a very sweet pastry with syrup and walnut filling, of Turkish or Arabian origin).

There is a choice of western European food in most restaurants of the capital city but a tourist to Bulgarien had better try the local cuisine. The food is too tasty to miss; besides, most of the courses are not difficult to prepare at home and if you find something exceedingly tasty you might ask for the recipe and try cooking it when you get home. The chef will be delighted to give it to you along with a couple of tips for cooking.

The company Bulgarien has many years experience with taking care of accommodation to Bulgaria.
