[7th Member of Monsta X]

Vani sat up in her bed after fluttering her eyes open. She sighed just a little when she realized it was finally Christmas.

Christmas. What was once the holiday she loved the most growing up, was now one of the most difficult ones to celebrate for her. Everything always brought back memories of when she was younger and when her mom was still with her. Her mother always made sure to make Christmas special for her and her siblings.

But now that she was gone and her dad wasn’t in the picture anymore, Christmas just wasn’t the same as what it was once to her. But don’t get her wrong, she still very much enjoyed celebrating it now with her members. And she definitely always let her feelings inside so she wouldn’t have to ruin the happy mood of what Christmas would bring them.

But today, Vani woke up with a heavy heart.

“Merry Christmas!” Minhyuk had barged into her room. “Come on, sleepy head! We’re opening presents.”

Vani forced herself to smile. “I’ll be there in a second.” She said.

After Minhyuk had left, Vani’s smile faded quickly as she let out a sigh. She slipped on her slippers and made her way out. She could already hear all the laughter and chatter coming from the boys.

“Finally you’re awake!” Kihyun laughed. “Come!”

Vani went ahead and sat herself on the floor in front of the coffee table. Kihyun had passed her a gift. “This is from me. Something you’ve been wanting and needing.”

Vani ripped up the wrapping paper to see Kihyun had gotten her a LED mirror that she’s been wanting for when she does her makeup. “Oh my god.” Vani grinned. “This is great. Thank you, Kihyun.”

“And of course for that you’re going to need to use this.” Shownu laughed, handing his gift to Vani that was from him. “Please let me know if these are not the right things.”

Vani opened up the gift bag and took out a whole bunch of makeup. She slightly chuckled to see Shownu really went all out by getting her a lot of products. “Thank you for this. I definitely use al of these things.”

Shownu sighed in relief. “I did a great job then.”

“You did.” Vani grinned.

All of the members continued to open up their gifts and in the middle of it, Hyungwon had came up to Vani with another gift. “This is from your sister and brother.” He said, handing her the gift. “She passed by while you were asleep but said she couldn’t stay to see you and wanted you to have this.”

Vani took the gift from Hyungwon and began to open it. The others were still opening gifts, paying no mind to the girl as she looked at what her sister had gifted her.

And it felt like her world had stopped out of nowhere.

With her heart already feeling heavy, the gift Vani’s sister had gave her was just another add to make it heavier. She didn’t hate it, the gift was the most beautiful thing ever.

It was a photo frame of her and her mother on the day the survival show ended. The two were backstage after the group lineup was called, both smiling really hard and both looking extremely happy.

Vani remembered how much her mother told her how proud she was of her over and over again. How she was going to support Vani thoughtout her journey of being an idol, be her number one fan, attend music shows as much as she could. And of course, seeing them in concert, screaming out Vani’s name to the top of her lungs.

But sadly, that all changed and Vani was never going to experience the support from her mother that she needed, because she knew her father was never going to give it to her.

She missed her mom, she wanted her back, she wished everything could go back to the way they were when she was still alive.

Vani had her head low, hair covering her face as she let a single tear slip. She hugged onto the frame tightly as she felt her throat tighten up from forcing herself not to cry. She also began to feel herself shake as she still continued to forced herself not to cry.

Jooheon was the first person to notice Vani, concern already written all over his face. “Vanessa? Are you okay?”

And from hearing that question, Vani couldn’t help it anymore as she let out a sob, shaking her head no. She began crying loudly, still holding onto the photo frame tightly against her chest.

Hyungwon rushed to her, sitting right next to her, pulling her against his chest. She continued to sob loudly as she buried herself to Hyungwon’s chest. “I miss her! Why did she have to go?! Why did this have to happen?” She cried loudly. “My mommy, I miss her so much.”

The room turned silent as Vani continued to cry. Hyungwon began to sooth her back to try and calm her down.

She had placed the photo on the coffee table where Kihyun ended up taking a glimpse from it, understanding why the sudden sadness coming from Vani. He sat on the other side of her, and took her out of Hyunwon’s arms to hug her tightly.

“We’re here for you, Vanessa.” He whispered to her. “We always have and we always will.”

Her loud sobs soon turned into quiet cries as she was still clinging onto Kihyun, eyes shut. “This isn’t fair.” She said. “She didn’t deserve that.”

“Sometimes we don’t know or understand why things happen. But we have to live with it.” Kihyun told her. “She may not be here physically, but I know for a fact she’s been supporting you every single day from the moment we debuted.”

“She’s proud of you, Vanessa.” He reassured her. “You keep making her proud.”

Vani’s tears came to a stop after hearing Kihyun’s words. Although, she soon began feeling bad of ruining the happy Christmas mood.

She looked at all of them, wiping her eyes. “I’m sorry, I must have ruined your Christmas with me crying-“

“No, no.” Changkyun said. “Don’t ever be sorry for how you’re feeling.”

“Yeah.” Jooheon began. “If you cry, well I’m going to cry with you.” He joked, trying to at least make Vani smile. In which he succeeded when seeing Vani’s lips curl up just a bit.

“I love you, guys.” She said. “I’ve just been super emotional. Not having my mother around for the holidays hurts just a bit. And my dad well-“

“We’re your family.” Kihyun said. “Who cares about your dad.”

Vani nodded her head, sighing.

“Let’s turn this around and eat the cookies we made in the kitchen!” Minhyuk shouted, already making his way there.

Everyone else followed, Vani taking her time to get off the ground. She picked up her photo once more, this still smiling as she stared at it.

She felt calm now. And maybe letting her emotions out was exactly what Vani needed to do to feel a bit at ease.

Chapter 20: A Lesson in Friendship! Sparking Kala’Au!

“Dys is starving…how dare you all deprive him.”

 “We’re sorry, sir…” Entropy, Bedlam and Ataxia chorused as they knelt before Tumult’s shrouded form.

 “It is not just your forces on this so-called ‘Unity Island,’” Tumult continued, “But the forces I have stationed across this accursed world. The Precure are growing in number, and they’re reinvigorating the masses. This will severely hamper the production of nega-energy to feed Dys.”

 “But what more can we do?” Ataxia asked. “Using the nega-ring to nega-evolve humans causes the ring to break, though humans make much more powerful nega-evolutions…”

 “And while we get the people and creatures around the target to panic, generating more nega-energy,” Entropy went on, “Precure show up almost instantly.”

 “They’ve garnered a lot of support from those who lack their powers,” Bedlam added, “And it’s slowing down any sort of production of nega-energy. People believe in the Precure.”

 “Yes…they are symbols of protection for their people.”  Tumult seemed to ponder this for a moment.

 “…sir.” Bedlam spoke again.

 “What is it, Bedlam?”

 “Allow me a chance to conduct an experiment. These Precure are almost all young ladies—they must have an adult supervising or guiding them. I want to track them down and see if I can nega-evolve them. But, I’d like to try it with two nega-rings.”

 “Two!?” Ataxia gawked. “You’ve got a lot of nerve even asking for one of those! You’ve already proven you can’t handle the responsibility!”

 “I have never granted two nega-rings to a soldier before,” Tumult mused. “And they, as they say, ‘do not grow on trees.’ However…”

 Tumult’s ethereal form leaned forward, seeming to gaze deep into Bedlam’s eyes. Mist surrounded Bedlam’s wrists, as the nega-rings formed around them.

 “I will allow this experiment. Just once. Locate and turn their support…and we have the chance to trample the Precure.”

 ===

 Mewtwo glided slowly across the room, a tablet floating at eye-level in front of him. Precure, nega-evolutions, nega-energy…so much to update himself on; now that he had allied himself with Doctor Pierce and the Precure under her supervision, he had access to information he lacked previously from merely skimming the minds of the populace. It was a temporary truce, but a beneficial one.

 …except for the matter of fascinated children like Kailani, who was watching him with stars in her eyes and a grin from cheek to cheek.

 “Kailani…” Naomi sat at the table nearby, doing homework and looking very unimpressed. “Stop staring. You’re being all kinds of rude right now.”

 Kailani shook her head a bit, and turned to face Naomi. “I’m sorry, it’s just that…well, a highly-intelligent, super-powerful legendary pokemon is right in front of us! And it’s reading a tablet!”

 “He, not it. Male designation, remember? And calm down. Stop treating him like some kinda sideshow attraction; I’m sure he doesn’t appreciate it.”

 “I don’t mean to be offensive…” Kailani glanced over her shoulder at Mewtwo as he raised a paw and swiped at the screen, changing the information displayed. “But…this is a chance to make an amazing ally and friend. In Alola, our culture emphasizes working alongside pokemon, and considering his intelligence is on par with a human’s, this could be a whole new kind of bond!” Kailani took a breath. “I’m…I’m gonna try and make friends with him!”

 “….uh-huh.” Naomi looked back to her homework. “Just don’t get yourself horribly maimed.”

 Kailani turned and went to approach Mewtwo. “Hey!”

 Mewtwo glanced up. Kailani made an arch with her hands.

 “A-loooo-la!” She gave him a toothy grin.

 …beg pardon?

 “The traditional Alola greeting! You try!”

 I’d rather not. I’m busy. Mewtwo focused back on the tablet.

 “Come on…I feel we’d be much stronger allies if you’d just open yourself up a bit more to us. We could be great friends—“

 I have no interest in friendship with any of you. I merely agree with your efforts to solve this nega-evolution epidemic and am offering my strength in exchange for information.

 “But…”

 “Kailani, try not to press him too much,” Dr. Pierce walked over and placed a hand on her shoulder, “This is a huge step out of his comfort zone, and we’re all still strangers to him. He’s lived his life not trusting humans at all.”

 “I know, but…” Kailani’s shoulders dropped a bit. Dr. Pierce noticed the tablet floating back to her; she took it in her hands as Mewtwo teleported out.

 “Come to think of it,” Naomi spoke up, “Where do you think he goes when he leaves here?”

 “I’m sure he’s doing his own investigation…” Dr. Pierce mused.

 “Maybe we can help with that! We’ll investigate, too!” Kailani piped up, “I mean, all we’ve really done is just fight the nega-evolutions; we should do more!”

 “Like what?” Naomi asked, not looking up from her homework.

 “Let’s ask around town! Get all the information we can get from firsthand accounts!” Kailani grabbed Naomi’s arm. “Come on, let’s get started!”

 “Wh—hey! I’m doing homework!” Naomi complained as Kailani pulled her out of her seat and out the door. Dr. Pierce sighed as she closed the door after them.

 Getting an idea and immediately heading out the door, she thought, Reminds me of my brother.

 ===

 “It’s like mega-evolution, kinda,” a shopkeeper was saying to a customer, “But….evil, I guess, is the word?”

 “Y’know, it’s kinda like that dynamaxing thing that’s goin’ on in Galar?” one shopping girl said to another.

 “It’s worrisome,” one nosy old lady sighed, “What if the Precure are the cause of the problem in the first place? Humans shouldn’t be fighting pokemon…”

 “It’s no use…” Kailani sighed as she sat on a bench with Naomi. “It’s either info we already know, or speculation!”

 “Why are we trying to help out a psychic who can just pick up information from scanning brains, again?” Naomi bit into a cookie she had bought during their search.

 “I mean, he can’t scan every brain all at once, right? I just…” she sighed.

 “Look, I get it. Where you’re from, working alongside pokemon is a huge cultural thing, right? But you can’t help people who don’t want help, Kailani.”

 “He didn’t say he didn’t want it!”

 “That’s not my point…” Naomi put a hand on her shoulder. “Look, we tried, and we got nothing. Let’s just call it a day.”

 “I guess…” Kailani slumped a bit.

 “How about we get some ice cream?”

 “…did you not just eat a cookie?”

 “It wasn’t that big a cookie; don’t judge me.”

 The pair began to walk toward the ice cream parlor in town, Kailani still hemming and hawing the entire time.

 “Look, if you wanna try and make friends with the guy, don’t get up in his face,” Naomi continued, “Maybe…small, subtle gestures are what work with him? Baby steps.”

 “Baby steps, huh…?” Kailani mumbled, staring at the ground, only to become distracted as she noticed Naomi had stopped walking. “What is it?”

 “Check out the ice cream parlor…!”

 Kailani followed Naomi’s gaze, seeing the ice cream parlor in question was completely coated in ice. “Whoah! Did the blast freezer go haywire!?”

 “That’s no haywire blast freezer…”

 “Everyone, stay back!” A police officer declared, trying to keep the gathering crowd under control.

 “There’s people still inside!” A bystander declared.

 “We better call for the others,” Naomi said as she looked to Kailani.

 “Call for ‘em, but we gotta get in there and help.”

 “The ice is spreading!” A woman shrieked, as people began to flee; true to her word, the ice was spreading out, seeming to be trying to enclose the people outside.

 “It’s full of typos, but a panicked, misspelled text should get them coming,” Naomi hurriedly put away her phone, grabbing Kailani’s hand and heading toward the chaos, against the flow of fleeing bystanders.

 “Neeeeeegaaaaaaa…..” a loud, low voice rumbled.  The pair looked to each other.

 “And, here we go,” the pair said in unison, not sounding thrilled in the least. A wall of ice shot up behind them, and the two slowly turned to see a sinister, but distinct, trio of faces within the ice leering at them.

 “NEGA-VANIIIIILUXE!” It bellowed. The girls let out a surprised yelp, scrambling back in surprise before pulling out their Cure Compacts.

 “Precure! I! Choose! You!”

 Sunrise and Starlight stood before the icy wall, as a massive spike of ice shot toward them. Quickly, Sunrise grabbed onto the end of the spike.

 “Wake-up Shock!” she cried, as electricity surged up the spike and struck the three massive faces, but to no effect. “What!?”

 “It might not be the real monster!” Starlight theorized. “It’s gotta be nearby, though!”

 “Right…! Let’s get into the parlor!”

 As the pair started to run, however, they immediately slipped on the ice, toppling atop one another.

 “Forgot about that,” Starlight muttered sheepishly, “Whoops.”

 “Come on..!” Sunrise scrambled to her feet with some trouble, helping Starlight up and heading toward the parlor. Though the door was frozen over, the pair teamed up with a powerful kick to break the ice and force it open. As they rushed through the door, they were struck by a full-body rush of cold air.

 “…I don’t remember the ice cream parlor being this big,” Starlight spoke.

 Before the two girls was a frozen wasteland; icy cliffs surrounded them, as the bitter cold chilled them to the bone.

 “Wh-what happened to the ice cream parlor!?” Sunrise wailed.

 “This is no ordinary nega-evolution,” Starlight muttered, deeply concerned. “And they said people were still inside!”

 “There’s a cave over there!” Sunrise pointed to a hole in the cliff side, grabbing Starlight by the arm and, after testing her footing, running toward it, stumbling a few times from the harsh wind.

 “Aaaand GO!” Starlight threw her weight forward, pulling herself and Sunrise into the cave as they landed in a pile. “Oof—!”

 “P-Pretty Cure…!” A voice gasped. The girls looked up to see the parlor owner, as well as a few customers, all huddled together to stay warm.

 “Is everyone alright?” Sunrise asked.

 “C-Cold, but safe,” the parlor owner frowned. “What has happened to my poor little shop? And my Vanilluxe?”

 “Hold on, that’s your Vanilluxe that got nega-evolved?” Starlight asked incredulously.

 “Well, only as of recent,” he replied, “I received it in a trade with a dear friend—I hoped we would become good friends, but….it hasn’t taken to me very well.”

 “That sounds like a recipe for nega-evolution, alright,” Sunrise muttered to Starlight, before looking back at the parlor owner, “What do you mean by ‘hasn’t taken to you?’”

 “I’ve tried everything—making snacks for it, talking to it a lot, spending lots of time with it…but I feel like every time I tried to get closer to it, I just pushed it away.”

 “I kinda get that,” Starlight reasoned.

 “What…?” He blinked in surprise. Sunrise even looked to Starlight, confused.

 “Think about it,” Starlight responded, “The Vanilluxe was in a new environment with a new trainer, who instantly acted like they were best friends. It’s basically like expecting a wild pokemon to love you right away.”

 Sunrise stared back at her, her stomach twinging as she connected the dots. “So it was stressed and scared in a new place…making it right for nega-evolution.”

 “Now you’re gettin’ it,” Starlight nodded. “Well, now we know what caused the problem, but now we have to solve it.”

 Sunrise frowned, deep in thought. “Well, we need to find Nega-Vanilluxe and fight it, but it turned the ice cream parlor into a snowy wasteland! How do we find it?”

 “Well, we’re Precure, and it’ll wanna fight us…I’m sure we won’t have to look for long. In the meantime, we should try and help the people here warm up. Do you have a fire-type on you? I admit I only have my Absol with me today…”

 Sunrise clapped her hands together. “Yes! I had pulled my Torkoal from my PC for a class today!”

 Not much later, the Torkoal was now standing in the center of the parlor, venting heat from its shell as the guests gathered around it, praising and thanking it. The two Cures shared a grin, before nodding to one another and running outside.

 “Come on out, Nega-Vanilluxe!” Starlight shouted, the pair taking offensive stances opposite each other. To their surprise, what appeared to be eight vanilluxes appeared around them, giving off sinister auras.

 “Shadowlings!” Sunrise exclaimed; the pair were caught by surprise as each unleashed a burst of Powder Snow.

 “No you don’t!” Starlight attempted to throw a Comet Burst, only to miss completely as she was blinded by the snow.

 “Wake-up Shock!” Sunrise clapped her hands together, unleashing a thunderclap that startled the Shadowling Vanilluxes into stopping their attack. “We’re here for the Nega-Vanilluxe! Stand down!”

 “They’re not legitimate pokemon, Sunrise,” Starlight frowned, “Just imitation puppets. They’re not gonna listen!”

 Suddenly, a snowball struck one of the Shadowlings, prompting it to look over. Some of the customers had come out of the parlor and were now chucking snowballs at the Shadowlings to distract them, all while Torkoal toddled out and putted out bits of fire to keep the Shadowlings back from the innocent civilians.

 “Do your best, Precure!” A child customer cheered, “Find the bad pokemon!”

 “Stay safe, guys!” Starlight said with a wave, the pair of Precure running through the group of Shadowlings to continue their search.

 “Okay, have a look around,” Sunrise suggested, “I know it’s a wasteland, but there has to be SOMETHING of note here—“

 “The mountain,” Starlight had stopped running and turned around, staring up. Sunrise soon followed her gaze—and she saw it. The three sinister faces peering out of the mountain’s three peaks as it loomed over the wasteland.

 “How did we not notice that when we got in here!?” Starlight squawked.

 “NEGAAAA!” Nega-Vanilluxe roared, shooting a storm of ice spikes at them; the pair opted to jump up, vaulting over and bounding off of the soaring spikes to get closer to the main “head” of the beast. As they successfully struck the creature’s face and bounced back, the leftmost head blew them away with icy wind, causing them to go sailing, screaming in alarm.

 “Gotcha!” A pair of voices shouted; Wish and Willow had arrived and caught the pair, landing safely on the ground.

 “Just in time!” Sunrise sighed in relief.

 “Sorry, we had trouble getting through the wall of ice,” Wish admitted, “What are we up against?” She squinted at the Nega-Vanilluxe through the wind and snow.

 “Recently-traded pokemon stressed and overwhelmed by everything,” Starlight replied. “I kinda don’t blame it—the new trainer just instantly started treating it like a best friend without getting to know it, apparently.”

 Sunrise had fallen silent, thinking this over. She couldn’t help but draw parallels. Then, she nodded. “Well, we can talk to the trainer about it, but first we need to turn the poor Vanilluxe back to normal!”

 “Look out!” Wish threw up a Full Moon Aegis to block another barrage of ice spikes. “First we need a way to get close to it safely!”

 “I bet I can do something! Cure Ball!” Willow held out her hand, as a pastel-colored pokeball formed in it. “I’ll use a Cure Aura attack with my Cyndaquil!”

 As Cyndaquil was released from the ball, Willow nodded to Wish, who dropped the barrier. As yet another wave of spikes was launched at them, Willow attacked.

 “Type: Fire!” She shared a warm aura with her Cyndaquil, which jumped onto her back and clung to her shoulder. “Precure Passionate Inferno!”

The oncoming spikes were met with a wall of flame launched back at them, while the remaining three Cures ran underneath the chaos to get close to Nega-Vanilluxe.

 “Wish Whimsy Pop!” Wish sent an attack at Nega-Vanilluxe; the balls of light exploded against the base of the mountain-shaped monster, prompting it to roar in anger. Mounds of snow began to rise up around them, taking the form of shadowling Vanillishes and Vanillites.

 “We just made it angry…great.” Starlight threw a Comet Burst; she snapped her fingers and the ball split into five, striking five targets. Sunrise, meanwhile, was now jumping from ledge to ledge up the steep beast. “Sunrise!”

 “I have an idea!” She called back, then yelped as spikes began to shoot out of the icy walls, narrowly dodging them and using them to jump and climb higher. “Keep fighting!”

 “Keep fighting, she says,” Starlight muttered, releasing Absol from a Cure Ball to help keep the number of Shadowlings down.

 It’s scared, it’s frustrated, it’s confused… Starlight thought, I wonder if…maybe it can hear me, like Mewtwo could hear Wish…

 With one last spring upward, she found herself staring face-to-face with the main head of Nega-Vanilluxe.

 “Listen to me!” She called, “We’re here to help you! We know the real you is locked inside this body, inside this mountain!”

 “Negaaaa….”

 “I know your story!” She landed on a spike that shot out. “I know you were overwhelmed with your new home and new trainer! He didn’t mean to upset you! He just wanted to make you feel welcome and overdid it!”

 The creature stared back at her, a low rumble emitting from it.

 “I promise…I won’t give up on you!” She declared, “None of us will! And things will get better!”

 Nega-Vanilluxe rumbled and trembled, before unleashing a vicious roar, shaking the very air. Sunrise remained firm.

 “Don’t shut us out!” She shouted, thrusting her arms out. It was then that she felt a warm sensation running down her arms, as two long, thin rods began to form in front of her palms. She grasped at them, as they took form into white sticks, orange gemstone lightning bolts running up their sides and small, winglike details emerging from the top of each one. As she stared at them, their name came to her.

 “…Sparking Kala’au….” She whispered. Indeed, they resembled kala’au, a traditional instrument from Alola. She struck the sticks together, the lightning bolts beginning to light up from the bottom.

 “Let’s go!” She struck them again, the light rising up the bolts with each strike. Lighting surged around her, and she felt the tempo come to her as she fluidly continued to strike the sticks together.

 “Precure! Festive Ho’olaule’a!”

 Sparks shot down from the sky like confetti, striking Shadowlings and chipping away at Nega-Vanilluxe’s defenses, as it seemed paralyzed from the numerous small shocks.

 “Now!” She jumped back, landing in a crouch with her teammates down below.

 “Precure Quartet Refresh!”

 ===

 “I’m sorry for rushing you into things, Vanilluxe….” the parlor owner frowned, offering a pokepuff to the restored pokemon. “I’ll give you the space you need, but don’t hesitate to come to me if you need something, okay?”

 “…Vaniiii….” Vanilluxe hesitantly ate the snack, then started to smile.

 “Looks like things will be okay here,” Willow remarked with a smile as the group stood a ways away.

 “Yep,” Starlight looked to Sunrise, “Shame we couldn’t find out any new information for Mewtwo like you wanted, though.”

 “It’s okay,” Sunrise replied, “….I think I learned something, myself.”

 “What is it?” Wish asked.

 “I shouldn’t be rushing to try and get on Mewtwo’s good side,” she replied, “He’s got a history that makes it hard for him to trust people, right? So…baby steps.”

 “Just like I told you,” Starlight pat her back. “C’mon, let’s head out.”

 ===

 The next day, the girls were gathered at Dr. Pierce’s house again, doing homework, when Kailani arrived.

 “I brought malasadas!” She declared with a big grin, “I made them in class! They’re a native Alolan treat!”

 “Oh, I’ve had them before; they’re so good!” Fae beamed as she set down the plate of treats.

 “Thank you, Kailani,” Dr. Pierce added, taking one for herself. Kailani grinned back, then noticed Mewtwo floating in a far corner of the room, again reading the tablet floating in front of him.  She took a breath, then walked over, setting down a malasada on the nearby end table.

 “Here. There’s one for you if you want it,” she said with a smile, before tipping her head and turning to go sit with her friends. Mewtwo briefly glanced up, watching her leave before looking to the snack on the end table. As the girls engaged in conversation, he went back to the tablet. But moments later, the malasada floated up to him. Kailani snuck a peek over her shoulder, grinning a bit before turning back to her friends.

   The group was unaware that outside, Bedlam was seated in a tree, leaning against its trunk with a scowl.

 “So, they do have someone acting as a guide….” He looked to his nega-ring. “I won’t fail Dys..I’ll destroy the Precure piece by piece, starting with their most ardent supporters.”

Mama Dís

A bit of childhood Durins for y’all.

“Amad! Amad! You’ll never believe what happened to Kíli today!” Fíli announced loudly, bursting into the kitchen. Behind him followed Dwalin, who was sniggering in his beard, and she could vaguely hear a gloopy sound just entering their small house. Turning around to look, Dís stared.

“Kíli!” she cried, “That’s my clean floor you’re tracking mud over!” Grabbing the nearby broom, she idly smacked Fíli’s questing fingers away from the dried apple rings she was going to put in her pie, handing the broom to her oldest. Kíli gave her his most woe-begone face. Dís sighed. “Outside, boys. Clean off all the mud – including the floor! – and you may have a treat when you’re done, while telling me all about your day.” Turning back to her board, Dís noticed one of the cinnamon-dusted apple slices disappearing, sneakily removed by a tattooed hand. “You’re included in ‘boys’, Dwalin,” she sighed, waving off her cousin. Dwalin grinned, giving her a wink as he followed the lads outside, the sound of the winch creaking telling her they were at least making an attempt at cleanliness.

“He’s clean… well, clean-ER, now, Amad,” Fíli called. Shaking her head, Dís crossed to the door, staring wide-eyed at the spectacle outside. Kíli – apparently having decided that his clothes were too muddy to bother – had stripped naked, and Dwalin was attempting to pour the bucket of water through his hair while Kíli was bent over, a brown river of sludge washing out of the dark strands. Wiping her flour-dusted hands on her apron, Dís looked pointedly at Fíli, glancing down at the muddy footprints on the floor once. Her eldest dutifully began washing the entryway flagstones, pushing muddy water out of the door with an expression only slightly less miserable than Kíli’s.

“I think that’ll do, Dwalin,” she sighed, turning around to find a towel. “Help Fee with the floor,” she called back over her shoulder. Holding out her arms, she wrapped Kíli in a warm towelly hug, picking him up with ease and setting him on her hip. He was getting too old to be carried – Kíli had very specific ideas about how grown up he was – but right now that didn’t seem to matter, as he burrowed into her hold. “Well, then, thundanud[1],” she murmured, carrying him back to the warm kitchen and ignoring the wetness she could feel seeping into her shoulder from his sodden hair, “wanna tell me all about it?”

“I felleded,” Kíli mumbled.

“Into a muddy ditch?” she guessed, holding up a slice of apple. Kíli nodded.

“And Mister Dwalin yelled at Vani,” he added, cheering slightly. “And Fee beat him with a sword.” She tried not to laugh, but a few giggles escaped. Kíli munched happily on his sweet treat.

“Was Vani the reason she fell?” she murmured, rubbing his small back gently. Kíli nodded again. Wrapping the towel securely around him, she easily distracted her smallest dwarfling with decisions about where to place the apple slices she dried on strings hung in the kitchen each autumn. Unsurprisingly, most of the slices ought to be destined for Kíli’s mouth, in his own opinion, but eventually the pie was finished, a lattice-work of pastry laid over the apples.

“Vani is mean,” Kíli mumbled, when she slid the pie into the small oven Thorin had built for her. Dís hummed soothingly.

“Aww, there’s no food!” Fíli groused. “Kíli ate all my apples.” Chuckling, Dís turned to the pantry, lifting her youngest.

“Think she can reach the cookie jar, thurrarur[2]?” she whispered, like she was sharing a secret. Kíli gave her a bright smile, reaching for the fabled jar – the target of many a cookie raid – and pulling it off the shelf.

“Cookies!” Fíli and Dwalin chorused when she reappeared, Kíli holding the jar aloft in victory.

“One each, lads,” she said, mock-sternly glaring at them. “It’ll be dinner soon, and pie for afters.” They all nodded, equally avaricious glints in their eyes as they reached into the jar. She chuckled.

“But it’s cookies, Dís,” Dwalin whined. “Can’t only have one, must be a rule somewhere. Can’t I eat Thorin’s?” Dís’ chuckle turned into a laugh at his pleading expression, but whatever answer she might have given was interrupted by an offended ‘hey!’ from the doorway to the kitchen, Thorin scowling at Dwalin who handed over the extra cookie with bad grace.

“Our intrepid Prince has denied your request, o brave warrior,” she teased, giving him a wink as she replaced the lid, returning the jar to its customary place. Dwalin grumbled.

“Why’s Kíli naked on the table?” Thorin asked next.

“Because you’re going to take Fíli outside for a bit, while I give him a proper scrub and Dwalin makes dinner,” Dís decided. Thorin knew better to argue – all her ‘boys’ did, really – with that tone of voice. Dís smiled, picking up her youngest once more and setting off for the bathroom.

The Write Place: ‘Tis the Season - My December

by Lisa Hiton

Looking for the right advice on pursuing the writer’s life? You’ve come to the write place!

My family is Jewish. We don’t celebrate Christmas. And yet, isn’t going to a movie and eating Chinese food while the rest of the world closes down for a day a kind of ritual—its own kind of made-up holiday? I’m sure that these details seem usual as well. But, dear writers, a lot more is there than meets the eye. Your family’s traditions, rituals, and habits—no matter how ordinary they seem—can be made extraordinary by turning them into words.

Family Hanukkah with multiple Hannukiahs! These are different than menorahs as they hold nine candles instead of seven.

PANNING FOR GOLD

An easy way to describe your holiday season to someone else (and kickstart your writing process) is to make a list of traditions and rituals that you think of when this time of year comes around. Mine looks something like this:

Tuesday before Thanksgiving

take a train into the city

to go to the Art Institute with my mom

followed by shopping for new art supplies

and a nice dinner

and train ride home

Thanksgiving Eve and Day

prepare spinach balls

set table

cook cook cook

eat eat eat

play games with cousins

Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

hang Hanukkah stockings

attend Cathy Nathan’s x-mas party

cook a big breakfast including eggs, fresh squeezed OJ, and bacon

open stockings

hang out

go to a movie at the theatre

cook a nice dinner (Chinese food takes too long in my hometown since we live in a pretty Jewish part of Chicagoland)

watch holiday movies with mom and brother, especially The Family Stone

Winters in Chicago can be brutal; there’s no better antidote than playing in the snow! Here I am enjoying the snow with my first friend, Rebel.

Are you bored yet? This isn’t even counting Hanukkah since it doesn’t always fall near Christmas! All of these things may seem pretty usual. That might be true if you make your list of traditions as well. You might decorate a tree, hang twinkle lights, go caroling, go to the same person’s house every year to celebrate, leave out cookies for Santa, etc. Most neighborhoods and cultures have their usual lists of traditions. Part of your goal as a writer is to pan for gold among them.

Looking at this list, I began to ask myself, Why is it that my mom, brother, and I do these same things every single year? Some of it seems like the larger culture, but some of it was made by us. As I think about why, it’s clear that a lot of these rituals are in some way related to my parent’s divorce. Through that lens, I might start panning for my own gold—to sift through this litany to find something that might be worth more than meets the eye. Each of these seemingly usual bullet points, in fact, triggers different memories for me. In that field of memories, where might I find a scene that begins a longer story? How might I organize these scenes and memories into something cohesive for myself and my readers? I’ll begin with my freshman year.

My freshman year of high school marked the first year of spending winter break with divorced parents. While breakfast time was never particularly special in my house, Christmas day posed a dilemma: what would my mom, brother, and I do in this new situation, just the three of us? Especially since nearly everything is closed on Christmas day and people are with their families, filling the time posed some anxiety for my mother and me, especially with my young, shy brother.

To be sure, I already had thrown one tantrum about adjusting to these new circumstances. It was the Tuesday before Thanksgiving. In elementary school and middle school, I normally had that day off as part of my holiday break. In high school though, this was not the case. It was second period when I received a pink slip during chorus to report to my advisor’s office. As a self-proclaimed academic, I was not used to be in trouble. With a room full of eyes on me as I left the choir room, my angst only increased.

It seemed my senior leaders had gone to my advisor worried about my general sadness. In my humiliation that anyone had noticed such negative energy, I proceeded to have the first of many tearful conversations with my advisor about adjusting: to high school, to a new home situation, and more. My mom came and picked me up from school so we could play hooky and keep our one ritual of going to the Art Institute of Chicago. I knew it was a temporary solution to a larger problem, and that this was just one of many adjustments I’d have to make. Yet, the gesture helped me persevere despite my pain.

That choir room would continue to serve as a literary backdrop for growth and tough love throughout high school. It was also a common community I kept throughout high school while everything else changed. For our annual fundraiser, we sold grapefruits and oranges by the box. When the trucks pulled up to the high school, we passed the boxes one by one down the line, just like the who’s down in Whoville, singing all the while in the face of another frigid Chicagoland winter.

While I’m more of a night owl than a morning person, and certainly not a big breakfast eater, this introduction to ripe grapefruits became my exception. Cut in half with a little bit of sugar was all I needed to jump-start my day with a jolt of Vitamin C. And so when the week of Christmas came around, my mom picked up a citrus juicer. The morning of Christmas. My brother and I sat on the island in our kitchen cutting oranges in half. We took turns pressing oranges onto the machine as it whirred and whirred. In an absolute mess of pulp, we finally squeezed enough halves for three cups of juice, just as our bacon was coming out of the oven. It was a new tradition, mundane as it may seem now, and a way of lightening the day and passing the time on a holiday that is not ours.

Christmas may not be our holiday, but it would be a boring day without our own tradition of “Hanukkah stockings”. My brother, Merrick, and I still give each other socks and chapstick as a ritual!

AMONG THESE ROCKS

Among the rocks in the river, there are some that are worth spending time with as a writer, and others that probably don’t add much to the larger story. The larger story in a personal essay is not always about a narrative arc. In the passage I just wrote about making orange juice, the larger story is about recasting the family unit as three instead of four, connecting to my younger brother, and trying to lift my spirit despite how hard it was to start high school with divorce at the forefront of my thinking and feeling. While all of that may not have come out precisely, writing this little passage is a signal that with time and effort, I could write that longer essay. Now as a writer, it will be up to me to describe these anecdotes as scenes, make characters out of my self and my family members, and reflect on the meaning. If this can all be done well—the showing and the telling—then it’s likely the reader will feel a similar sense of nostalgia.

The house where I grew up is on a hill whose swale leads to the north fork of the Chicago River. My fondest memories of winter are sledding down that hill and walking on the frozen river. Here I am teaching a new friend, Miriam, about these prairie-land games.

That is, perhaps, the most important way to approach material. If something is significant, memorable, or worthy of reflection to your own sense of self or personal narrative, there is probably a way to translate that to your reader in writing. Take for example Vani Dadoo’s My December piece from last year, “December in Delhi”, about waiting for the train:

Winter is not good for a polluted city like mine. December, being the main month of winter in India, is always the coldest.

All things in nature huddle together in winter, trying to find, or steal, some warmth from the other.

The clouds creep towards the ground. The fog and the smoke meet and embrace, and together try to steal the little sunlight before it touches the earth. The smog becomes denser, trying to wrap the earth in a heavier, grayish blanket, like the people sleeping in woolen quilts in their homes.  Evening darkness approaches faster than before, as if the smog did succeed in robbing the sunlight. Even after twilight, the smog refuses to diffuse. The air becomes thicker, but the world puts on an old, dull, sweater and wraps a muffler around its neck and walks on.

Some evenings, it coughs and some mornings, it can see its breath. But most days, it can’t peer into the distance.

This year, my father decided to travel to escape the harsh winters. “Migration over hibernation,” he called it, and, “better to get the sun somewhere than get closer to that old, rusty heater at home,” is what he said. We decide to journey to the western coast around Mumbai by train. Indian Railways was a part of family, as all cross-country trips; from Himalayan foothills to the Rajasthani deserts, were made by train.

As we take a cab to the New Delhi railway station, the moon is rising. The moon is a blurred piece of white in the black sky, clouds and smog. The street lights, though, filter through this, illuminating every speck of dust. The cars zoom past on the highway.

One can rarely see stars in my city.

Dadoo wavers between a present-tense meditation on December, and a swell of memory related to waiting for a train in Delhi. While these may be ordinary in another context—waiting for a late train or reflecting on the season—Dadoo weaves these two threads together, a double helix, to arrive at grand statements of the human condition: that like waiting for a train, we wait for a season’s end so that we may be carried into a new one.

Dadoo also brings us Delhi in her sensory details. From the opening passage about all things in nature “huddling together”, Dadoo mirrors her descriptions to match the crowded and polluted city around her. Just as Dadoo was able to give the details of December in Delhi while waiting for a train, you can give your own details as you think about your family—their traditions and rituals, the personalities of each member, and the things that make you nostalgic.

A reader gets a clear sense of a train station in Mumbai from this piece. If you’re familiar with such a place, you will get swept up in a shared nostalgia. If you’re unfamiliar with this land, you may find these descriptions to be exotic. In both cases, the very things that are both familiar and new bring the reader into a shared sense of the human condition with the writer herself. That shared humanness is the the entire point of sharing stories! And all of that came from writing about waiting for the train!

So, dear writers, as you think of Decembers past and enjoy your current December, what memories and rituals are for keeps? What gold will you find in waiting for the train, cooking with your grandmother, visiting a museum, playing in the snow? Show us your favorite places, traditions, and people at this time of year by tagging your stories and images with #MyDecember on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

What is the Non-GMO Diet - What is it and How to benefit from it

There’s a new diet on the block but I wouldn’t call it a fad - If you’re wondering what is the non-GMO diet keep reading as this blog will enlighten you. Many people want to know how to identify Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) in their diet but are concerned that the lack of labeling prevents them from succeeding. Not exactly, as there are only a certain number of crops that are considered genetically modified. By knowing which crops are GMO and choosing organic versions you can follow the non-GMO diet quite thoroughly and simply. I have been following this diet, and teaching my patients to follow it for years. So in this blog we’ll learn what are GMOs, what is the non-gmo diet, and what the benefits of following this diet are. While labeling helps, we don’t need it in order to avoid GMOs in our food. Here’s why:

What are GMOS

According to Consumer Reports GreenerChoices.org GMO and refers to plants, animals or other organisms whose genetic material has been changed in a laboratory, in ways that do not occur naturally. A species could have been changed to include proteins from other plants, animals, bacteria or viruses to theoretically produce a certain effect such as longer growing season, more nutrient value or to prevent pests from eating the crop. Commercial GMOs have been grown since 1996

The seeds used to grow the vast majority of corn, soybeans, rapeseed (to make canola oil), Cotton (for clothes and cotton seed oil) and sugar beets in the U.S. have been genetically engineered to tolerate glyphosate, the key ingredient in the herbicide RoundUp. GMO crops are also called herbicide-tolerant crops, these genetically engineered plants can survive the application of herbicides that would otherwise have killed the crops along with the targeted weeds. Due to the problem of weeds becoming resistant to glyphosate, genetically engineered varieties that are resistant to other herbicides have been developed.

Another trait that has been genetically engineered into food crops is pest resistance. These varieties have been genetically engineered with genes from a soil bacterium that produces a protein that is toxic to insects. The genes are modified and inserted into the genetic code of the plants, so that the plant manufactures its own pesticide.

Herbicide tolerance and pest resistance represent over 99% of traits in genetically engineered crops currently on the market.

When Consumer Reports tested processed foods with corn and soy ingredients in 2014, we found that almost all of the processed foods tested that were not labeled as Organic or Non-GMO contained substantial proportions of genetically engineered corn and soy.

What is the Non GMO Diet?

The Non-Gmo Diet is a diet that strictly avoids genetically modified food crops, additives, supplements, and thinking up the food chain; avoiding eating animal food who consume GMOs.

You want to avoid GMO foods because they contain higher levels of cancer-causing pesticides, as well as bacteria that are foreign to the body that might destroy your microbiome - keeping the microbiome in tack is essential to health as digestive complaints are the root cause of all chronic disease and been linked to autoimmune diseases, weight gain, anxiety and depression and cancer.

The NON-GMO Diet t is essentially a diet in which you avoid the crops who’s seeds are owned by Monsanto, and the avoid eating the animals who eat those crops. You may also choose to avoid crops that are highly contaminated with glyphosate, such as the yearly Dirty Dozen list. Since the use of genetic engineering, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs), is prohibited in organic products, this means an organic farmer can’t plant GMO seeds, an organic cow can’t eat GMO alfalfa or corn, and an organic soup producer can’t use any GMO ingredients. Thereby eating organic versions of the conventionally genetically modified crops, you are pretty much assured in the USA not to consume GMOs.

In order to consume the Non-GMO diet eat organic versions - and only organic versions of the following foods - strictly avoiding all packaged foods that contain any ingredients and additives that contain GMO crops. This can be tricky at you need to read ingredients lists on all packaged food items and ensure the following are certified organic.

1) Corn: This means corn on the cob, canned and frozen corn, corn starch, corn oil, corn chips, tortillas, corn flour, corn meal, Corn syrup or high fructose corn syrup

Hidden corn is also found in vegetable starch, Dextrins, Maltodextrins, Dextrose, Fructose or crystalline fructose, Hydrol, treacle, Ethanol, Free fatty acids, Maize, Zein, Sorbitol, Vitamin C and Ascorbic acid and a HUGE list of medications and foods unless the label specifically says GMO free or corn-free

Eating chicken, turkey and eggs from chicken that were fed vegetarian feed, grain, corn are also filled with GMOs. While it is often believed that chicken is a better option than beef, it is not likely true since conventional chicken feed is highly genetically modified with corn and soy.

Conventionally raised beef also eat corn and soy making the meat, milk, butter, cheese exposed to genetic modified food.

2) Rapeseed/Canola: Canola oil, potato chips fried in canola oil, french fries fried in canola oil, any foods cooked using canola oil or have canola oil in the ingredients list

3) Sugar Beet: Sugar, beet sugar, candy, baked goods, cereals, crackers, cookies, icing, cakes, sodas, popsicles, Mr. Freeze, ice cream, Koolaid, poptarts, fast food, etc etc etc all packaged foods. While it’s best to avoid processed sugar all together, opt for cane sugar, maple syrup, honey, stevia, barley sugar instead of GMOd sugar beet.

4) Soy: soybeans, tofu, miso, soysprouts, edamame, TVP - textured vegetable protein, mock meat, mock chicken, vegatarian protein, soy nuggets, soymeal, soy flour, soybean oil, vegetable oil, soy lecithin, lecithin. Livestock fed a vegetarian diet of soy, corn and grain meaning all conventional dairy, eggs and most meat is genetically modified.

5) Cotton: Cotton is not edible and yet the GMO oil is being used in vegetable oil as well as to pack canned fish like tuna. Food Babe Vani Hari reports: “I was a bit shocked when I contacted In & Out Burger and they told me they use cottonseed oil to fry their french fries – but they aren’t alone. Depending on location, Arby’s, Arctic Circle, Wendy’s, and Burger King sometimes use cottonseed oil in their fryers as well, which they use to cook anything fried like fries, chicken strips, and onion rings. According to Burger King’s latest ingredient list: “Products that are fried in a shared fryer include but may not be limited to: Fish Filet, Pork Sausage, Crispy Chicken patty, Chicken Nuggets, Original Chicken Patty, Spicy Chicken Patty, Hash browns, French Fries, French Toast Sticks, and Onion Rings. Fryer oil contains: corn, canola, soy and/or cottonseed oils”.

Why Eat the Non GMO Diet?

The Non-GMO Shopping Guide includes this list in order to avoid consuming Genetically Modified Organisms:

Aspartame (also called AminoSweet®, NutraSweet®, Equal Spoonful®, Canderel®, BeneVia®, E951) baking powder canola oil (rapeseed oil) caramel color cellulose citric acid cobalamin (Vitamin B12) colorose condensed milk confectioners sugar corn flour corn masa corn meal corn oil corn sugar corn syrup cornstarch cottonseed oil cyclodextrin cystein dextrin dextrose diacetyl diglyceride erythritol Equal food starch fructose (any form) glucose glutamate glutamic acid glycerides glycerin glycerol glycerol monooleate glycine hemicellulose high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) hydrogenated starch hydrolyzed vegetable protein inositol inverse syrup inversol invert sugar isoflavones lactic acid lecithin leucine lysine malitol malt malt syrup malt extract maltodextrin maltose mannitol methylcellulose milk powder milo starch modified food starch modified starch mono and diglycerides monosodium glutamate (MSG) Nutrasweet oleic acid Phenylalanine phytic acid protein isolate shoyu sorbitol soy flour soy isolates soy lecithin soy milk soy oil soy protein soy protein isolate soy sauce starch stearic acid sugar (unless specified as cane sugar) tamari tempeh teriyaki marinades textured vegetable protein threonine tocopherols (vitamin E) tofu trehalose triglyceride vegetable fat vegetable oil vitamin B12 vitamin E whey whey powder xanthan gum Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) although usually derived from corn, is probably not GM because it is not likely made in North America.

How To Feel More Full Without Overeating

Hands up those who have issues with overeating?

I see you there in the back Rob Ford, obtain that hand up.

Truthfully everyone will certainly experience this trouble, possibly not every meal yet if you are consuming a lot of refined, produced or fast food I recognize you will certainly run into this trouble of relatively never ever feeling full and still discovering on your own hungry after a large meal.

I will certainly show you exactly how artificial foods are created to deceive you into assuming you're consuming real food and exactly how much better food choices and even exactly how you consume will certainly aid eliminate the feelings of never feeling complete and also overindulging at each meal

WHY DOES JUNK NOT FILL United States UP and LEAD TO OVEREATING?

It's rather secure to say if something comes out of a box or bundle it's a good bet it's not an excellent food option. Items like these have a tendency to be much more like replica foods. They have the look of food as well as even the taste yet what you are eating is a made as well as manufactured product.

These foods are practically devoid of genuine nourishment when your body receives food it expects a wealth of vitamins and minerals. When this does not happen you have actually generally consumed a huge amount of calories but are essentially depriving on a cellular degree. Your body will proceed to crave the nourishment it believes it has actually neglected causing continuous food craving.

FRUCTOSE AND APPETITE STIMULATION

Possibly linked with this constant appetite is fructose. If you are consuming a packaged or refined food it's an excellent bet that it includes fructose, particularly in the kind of high fructose corn syrup. HFCS assists provide some added preference and also appearance to foods making it better and additionally permits a much longer rack life leading to less waste by manufacturers.

Studies from Yale have proven to fructose to stimulate cravings as well as hunger more compared to other sorts of sugar. These researches have been likewise advertised by the College Of The golden state in San Francisco

This is just one even more need to stay clear of fructose and also fine-tuned sugars.

HOW SYNTHETIC FLAVORS TECHNIQUE OUR BODIES

As stated concerning consuming foods without genuine nourishment do not please our nutrient requirements and leave us still starving for genuine vitamins and minerals.

So how are these food items crafted as well as especially why need to we be conscious of the component that most of us appear to gloss right over:

"Natural Flavor"

World class chefs understand that their track record is focused around flavor. Bland or unappetizing meals are not visiting let them climb up the culinary ladder. Therefore it is with food producers. No one is visiting be a repeat consumer if something is not pleasant to the preference buds.

Since 90% of the cash North Americans spend on food is utilized to buy refined food it has actually come to be a billion buck market focused around your preference buds. Taste uniformity is vital. Have you discovered how something like grapes or an apple can taste a little different every single time you have one but every Oreo cookie you have ever before had in your life is specifically the very same? Taste variations could not exist for consistent revenues so producing these flavors should be a specific science.

(FUN FACT: The name Oreo comes from the re of the word cream that is placed in between the two o's from the word chocolate. Just just how the cookie is comprised)

You will see all-natural as well as fabricated taste on a bulk of things you might locate in your fridge freezer, fridge or cupboards. So where are these tastes produced? In 3 Michelin Starred dining establishment kitchens or cooking institutes?

Try New Jersey

CHEMICAL VALLEY

The 'flavor market' runs right through the New Jersey Turnpike. This is where you will locate the house of a few of the largest chemical developers worldwide including:

IFF (Worldwide Tastes and also Fragrances-the worlds largest taste company

Givaudan- the worlds second biggest flavor company

Haarmann and also Reimer - Germanys biggest flavor company

Takasago- Japans largest flavor company

Flavor Dynamics

Frutarom

Elan Chemical

There are dozens a lot more yet essentially 2/3rds of any chemical flavor marketed in the USA is developed in this area.

And make no error these are full laboratories.

90% of a foods flavor can be connected to its scent and its no coincidence that these chemical flavor factories likewise make a majority of the very best marketing fragrances. These factories are additionally making the gives off things like house cleansers, antiperspirant, flooring cleaners, hair shampoo, shower gels etc etc

The capability to manipulate unstable chemicals to develop a specific odor is why scientific research lags the ability to provide a smell to a hairspray in addition to your microwaved dinner.

NEW PHONY PRODUCTS, NEW FAKE FLAVORS

With up to 10,000 new items being presented yearly, brand-new tastes need to be produced as well. There is no such flavor as 'spray can cheese'or avocado cost-free guacamole.

Yep, things like that really exist and the tastes need to come from someplace so they are produced. These products don't exist in nature so you just need to look to the Garden State to discover them.

Flavors created today are established with things like spectrometers, gas chromatographs and headspace vapor analyzers. 

Not a great deal of natural that enters into 'natural tastes'.

Interestingly there is not also always a difference between all-natural as well as synthetic flavors.

Terry Acree, teacher of Food Science from Cornell College claims an all-natural flavor is' a flavor that has been obtained with an outdated innovation' as well as that often all-natural and also artificial flavors occasionally have precisely the exact same chemicals, generated with various methods.

WHERE IS THE FDA IN ALL THIS?

To me this is one of the most absurd component. The Food and Drug Management does not call for flavor companies to disclose the components in their ingredients. This absence of public disclosure allows the companies to maintain the secrecy of their formulas.

Try to discover a dish for Coca Cola. Besides supposed 'uncovered' recipes the soda Titan has actually had the ability to have their formula a protected trick for over 127 years

When enabling firms to simply detail an ingredient as a fabricated or natural flavor covers up the wide range of compounds and also active ingredients that comprise that 'taste'

Probably most well-known currently is what is in fact in Burger Kings 'artificial strawberry flavor" Have a look what makes it up:

amyl acetate, amyl butyrate, amyl valerate, anethol, anisyl formate, benzyl acetate, benzyl isobutyrate, butyric acid, cinnamyl isobutyrate, cinnamyl valerate, cognac essential oil, diacetyl, dipropyl ketone, ethyl acetate, ethyl amyl ketone, ethyl butyrate, ethyl cinnamate, ethyl heptanoate, ethyl heptylate, ethyl lactate, ethyl methylphenylglycidate, ethyl nitrate, ethyl propionate, ethyl valerate, heliotropin, hydroxyphenyl-2-butanone (10 percent solution in alcohol), a-ionone, isobutyl anthranilate, isobutyl butyrate, lemon vital oil, maltol, 4-methylacetophenone, methyl anthranilate, methyl benzoate, methyl cinnamate, methyl heptine carbonate, methyl naphthyl ketone, methyl salicylate, mint important oil, neroli crucial oil, nerolin, neryl isobutyrate, orris butter, phenethyl alcohol, increased, rum ether, g-undecalactone, vanillin, and solvent

It's type of worrying that this can be provided under one active ingredient. As well as this is not simply considering convenience food firms however any type of product you have that may contain synthetic and natural flavors.

If you might see that ingredient list as I am right now with my word editor it's brightened like the red light area in Amsterdam. Not a great deal of recognized words there ...

Here's a fun video game, attempt to discover strawberries on that checklist of fabricated strawberry taste ...

If you are not aware of Vani Hari aka the food infant this would certainly be a great time to have a look at her work. She's a crusader versus business including unnatural components in their items as well as she was responsible for obtaining Kraft to obtain the yellow color from their mac as well as cheese

KEEP IT REAL

So the point behind showing you all this is to remind you that these produced flavors, different colors, scents etc are fooling the body right into believing it is consuming food. If it appears like phony duck and scents like fake duck ... well you get the picture.

As long as you are eating food like items you could be able to eat a great deal yet you are still reallying going to be depriving yourself nutritionally. And at the same time you have simply taken in a huge lots of calories and chemicals that are visiting be a problem for your body to deal with.

When we stick to genuine foods we permit our body to be fed and nurtured properly and also it allows for our gut as well as digestion system to soak up and make use of those nutrients, minerals and vitamins to function in keeping us healthy and balanced, invigorated as well as aid to combat disease.

SLOW DOWN AND TAKE YOUR TIME

If there is one point you intend to take away from this article it's this: slow down when you eat.

Most people are simply wolfing down our food like Rob Ford at an all you could eat buffet (I rip on him a great deal yet I live near Toronto, i'm enabled to.)

Eating also rapid as well as not chewing appropriately overwhelms our gastrointestinal system as well as does not permit for natural satiation aka feeling full.

When you eat too quickly you absorb way too many calories before you realize you have actually eaten enough. Your brain obtains a signal that it has actually had adequate food but this can take anywhere from 15-20 minutes to begin. Devouring a meal in 3-5 mins overrides this signal.

Studies from the North American Organization for the study of Excessive weight proved to that overweight males and females absorbed fewer calories when they slowed their regular consuming pace

Studies from Osaka University in Japan have actually additionally looked right into the speed of eating concern. They checked out the consuming practices of 3000 individuals and discovered that 84% of males that consumed promptly were most likely to be overweight than those that ate slowly. As well as female were just over twice as likely

LET THOSE RECEPTORS STRETCH

All of the researches in overeating expose the issue of the connection between the mind and the stomach. Eating also quickly does not allow those stretch receptors to get to the mind in time permitting an over consumption of calories. Basically eating also fast could load your stomach before your gastric responses has a possibility to begin developing.

So the straightforward eliminate from this is similar to your mommy probably informed you, and also definitely told me, eat your food slowly.

You could intend to establish a timer and also area your meal out throughout 15-20 minutes. This will do two things:

Allow the all-natural signals to get to the brain to say you have actually had enough

takes some stress off the digestion system

So decrease as well as allow yourself to truly taste the food you are eating and make your dish time more concerning beneficial on your own rather of just obtaining it from the way.

WHAT FOODS WILL CERTAINLY LOAD US UP THE BEST?

Alright, we recognize why we should avoid foods that trick us right into assuming we are consuming real food and why we should reduce when we eat, however just what are the very best food selections to nurture us AND keep us feeling full?

When it concerns satiation, the 4 things that identify us really feeling complete are:

Protein

water

fiber

healthy fats

A study done by the College Of Sydney checked out 38 foods and also found the ones that checked higher in satiation were those containing protein, water and also fiber

And not remarkably the ones with low satiation scores causing us to overeat were the 'foods' made up of fat, sugar and/or fine-tuned carbohydrates. Exactly what do you assume are the chances that a few of those products had natural and also synthetic flavors?

Simply put when we eat foods which contain these healthy protein, water, fiber as well as healthy and balanced fats we feel fuller for longer. Veggies are much as well as away the perfect choice here. They are composed mainly water as well as fiber and are called high-volume foods. They are a perfect mix of high nourishment including vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients. They will fill you up however remain reasonably low in calories.

Some top choices:

artichokes

turnips

carrots

bell peppers

broccoli

dark leafy greens

eggplant

brussel sprouts

tomatoes

squash

Along with vegetables you want to take a look at fruits in addition to grass fed healthy proteins and also healthy and balanced fats such as olive oil and avocados.

WRAPPING IT ALL UP

I am still pretty energetic as I am in the fitness center a fair bit and also still play competitive sporting activities. Basically I am able to consume a great deal. When I integrate some of the active ingredients over I feel much more full compared to I ever before would consuming a big pizza or 3 pounds of wings.

I will certainly make a salad that's a mix of spinach as well as other environment-friendlies. It will certainly have tomato, avocado, red onion, cucumber, some goats cheese and also some totally free array smoked chicken ahead. I will certainly make my very own clothing that is just added virgin olive oil and some balsamic vinegar. These kind of salads leave me feeling stuffed for hrs on end. Some days I will certainly have that at dinner and also i benefit the remainder of the night. And as a reminder I can eat A LOT, throughout the day and daily, however straightforward salads like these can do the trick.

So beginning incorporating a few of these foods into your dishes every day and remember to slow down and take your time while you eat to avoid overeating.

This way you will be filling on your own up without filling yourself out.
