Health Benefits — winter

As the temperatures outside continue to dip and Old Man Winter makes a showing, ‘tis the season to kick back by the fire and settle in for a long few months of winter ahead. But if you’re looking to warm up the winter months, you may not need to throw another log on the fire at all. Instead, head to the kitchen and go for some spicy, hot sauce-infused recipes.

The holidays are full of flavor, from tempting appetizers to sweet desserts and, of course, the filling main course. The holiday season, however, doesn’t have to just tempt your sweet tooth. There are plenty of ways to heat up the holidays and add some spice to everything from your upcoming parties to your upcoming Christmas feast.

The temperatures may be getting colder outside but that’s certainly no reason to let the upcoming winter season get the best of you. In fact, there’s really nothing better on a cold day or cold night than a hot bowl of soup.

If you find yourself feeling a little blue as the temperatures dip, you may someday be able to help thwart those pre-winter blues by adding extra spice to your diet.
