Laughter-inexpensive medicine
that heals babies wounds
- Laughter is contagious and makes
everyone instantly feel better-
including a baby who is unhappy.
Even a child with a superior disposi-
tion faces moments of grumpiness
from life’s little up and downs-
teething, diaper rash or general dis-
comfort. Happy babies make life eas-
ier for everyone involved.
A son or daughter who is not cry-
ing allows more time for his or her
parents to get through the day stress-
free. An irritable baby may cause
mom or dad to suffer from broken
sleep, or leave his or her parents at
their wits'ends-not a healthy situa-
tion at all.
Parents attempt to cheer up their
babies in many ways, as laughter is
an inexpensive medicine that often
can heal all wounds. A bubbly, cheer-
ful baby becomes quite addictive to
mothers and father who adore the
chuckles of their little ones. In “97
Ways to Make A Baby Laugh”
(Workman Publishing), by Jack
Moore, successful baby-comedy antics
are offered for parents who desire a
happy and healthy coexistence with
their children.

Peanuts a healthy snack for all ages
Many people think that peanuts and
peanut butter are child’s play. How-
ever, people of all ages should bite
into these healthy snacks because
peanuts are packed with essential nu-
trients that your body needs to func-
tion at an optimal level according to
the Peanut Advisory Board
(www.peanutbimerlovers.com).
A tasty treat, peanuts we a conven-
ient source of folic acid—a B vitamin
that can reduce the risk of birth defects
of the brain and spinal cord by 70 per-
cent when consumed in sufficient
amounts before conception and during
the earliest weeks of pregnancy.
A diet rich in peanuts also can re-
duce the risk of cardiac disease.
Nearly 80 percent of the fat in peanuts
and peanut butter is unsaturated. Un-
saturated fat sometimes is called the
“good fat” because, when used to re-
place saturated fat in the diet, it can
lower bad LDL-cholestrol levels
without lowering good HDL-
cholesterol levels. Peanuts contain
only 2.5 grams of saturated fat per
serving. As an added benefit, peanuts
naturally are a cholesterol-free food.
