In a large bowl combine sweet potatoes, sugar, orange juice, eggs, vanilla extract, 1/2 cup butter and grated orange peel. Spoon mixture into orange shells. Place in a deep casserole dish. 4. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine remaining 1/2 cup butter, brown sugar, flour and pecans. Cook until sugar dissolves in melted butter. Spoon over oranges.

Lastly, and maybe most importantly, fruit has a very positive effect on the brain’s memory and will improve your exam results. Don’t believe it? Believe it now!

water: drink plenty of it daily to stay hydrated. Water flushes out toxins that can build up in fatty tissues and keeps our cells plump, kind of like lettuce leaves. Water also helps reduce dark circles under the eyes and helps reduce the development of wrinkles.

dark leafy greens: spinach, kale, collards, arugula, and other leafy greens help fight UV damage caused by the sun which means fewer wrinkles.

11

yogurt: plain yogurt is loaded with calcium that helps keep bones strong. It also helps fight cavities and keeps your teeth white.

Nutrition at The 5!

lean beef: eating beef less often is best for your heart, but be sure to include it once or twice a week for a healthy dose of iron. Iron helps oxygen get to all our organs and skin cells which helps your skin glow.

10

citrus fruits: loaded with Vitamin C, citrus fruits pack a hefty dose of antioxidants. Vitamin C in particular plays a role in the prevention of skin damage and helps maintain elasticity of the skin (i.e. prevents wrinkles).

If you consistently eat junky food, you are going to look and feel terrible. The right foods, full of vitamins, minerals and good fats help keep your skin glowing, your hair shiny and make your nails grow long and strong. If everything is healthy on the inside, it shines through on the outside. If you still think eating for beauty is vain, consider this. At worst, eating this way will help control your weight but at best it can have many positive impacts on your life.

healthy fats: found in olive oil, nuts, seeds and fatty fish. The fatty acids nourish your skin and give it a radiant beautiful glow. Most of these foods also contain Vitamin E which is an antioxidant that helps maintain skin integrity.
