Happy Saturday, Holistic Family! Herb Spotlight-Poke Poke (pronounced poh-kay) is a traditional dish from Hawaii, rich in both history and flavor. Initially, it referred to a style of preparing fish, typically tuna, seasoned with various ingredients like soy sauce, sesame oil, and seaweed. Over time, poke has evolved into a more diverse dish, often served with rice and topped with a variety of vegetables, fruits, and sauces. But what makes poke truly special is not just its flavor—it’s the potential health benefits it carries, rooted in its origins and natural ingredients. Origins of Poke The origins of poke date back to ancient Hawaiian times. The word “poke” means “to slice” or “to cut crosswise into pieces” in Hawaiian, referring to the traditional method of preparing fresh fish, often tuna, which was then seasoned with sea salt, seaweed, and crushed kukui nuts (a native Hawaiian plant). Poke was a staple for Hawaiians, who often relied on local, unprocessed ingredients for their meals. While poke has roots in traditional Hawaiian cuisine, it has become a beloved dish worldwide, with modern variations reflecting a fusion of international flavors and styles. Medicinal Benefits of Poke Poke, with its focus on fresh, nutrient-rich ingredients, is not only a tasty dish but also a healthful one. Here are some of the key medicinal benefits it can offer: 1. Rich in Omega-3 Fatty Acids: The fish used in poke, especially tuna, is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for heart health. Omega-3s help reduce inflammation, lower blood pressure, and reduce the risk of heart disease by improving cholesterol levels. 2. High in Protein: Poke is packed with lean protein, especially when made with fish like tuna or salmon. Protein is crucial for building and repairing tissues, and it also supports muscle growth and immune function. Regular consumption of protein-rich foods can help maintain a healthy metabolism and support overall health. 3. Antioxidants and Vitamins: Many of the vegetables and toppings used in poke, such as avocado, seaweed, and various herbs, are rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. For example, seaweed is a great source of iodine, which is important for thyroid health, while avocados provide healthy fats and vitamin E, which support skin health and immune function. 4. Anti-Inflammatory Properties: Ingredients such as ginger and turmeric, often added to poke bowls or sauces, have well-known anti-inflammatory properties. They can help reduce inflammation in the body, which is associated with various chronic conditions, including arthritis and heart disease. 5. Gut Health: Seaweed, a common ingredient in poke, is a natural source of prebiotics, which are compounds that promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut. A healthy gut microbiome is essential for digestion, immune function, and even mental health. 6. Low in Processed Sugars: Traditional poke recipes tend to use whole, unprocessed ingredients, which makes it a healthier option compared to many other fast foods. The low sugar content can help stabilize blood sugar levels, reducing the risk of developing conditions like type 2 diabetes.

REPOSTED FROM: The Holistic American Health Academy Group! I was SO excited to see the New American, the Nation's largest Pro-Constitutional magazine in circulation, spotlighting "Making America Sick, One Bite at a Time!" This is huge and indicates the masses are definitely waking up. Will we witness the demise of Big Pharma? The article does an outstanding job of explaining how the food supply has been weaponized against Americans. It also represents perfectly, the Mission of the Holistic American,....... to restore America, through Holistic Health! When you think about it, didn't Pharma create the "Holistic Health" industry? They made sure allopathy was the main gig in their 100+ years of existence, which is astonishing, considering how new it is to human history. Prior to allopathy, didn't we live in a manner that was holistic? Back then it was just HEALTH! Hmmm!! And now $7 trillion of market share is flooding the holistic health industry by 2030. The signs show a new age ahead! Attached is a full copy of the New American Magazine from November. Normally you have to buy these, but your HAHA membership brings so many little perks and we're bringing it to you for free! Be sure to read the Editor's prelude in the front of the magazine ..." Self-reliance, Health, and Liberty" (sounds like a good t-shirt slogan to me!) Enjoy!
