Black Rice, Purple Corn, and Black Boned Chicken!
Your
friends may have asked why you feed your parrots that strange black
rice and purple corn and other unusual foods you buy from us. Maybe
you've read up on it or you just took our word for it that it's good
stuff. We've been using the black rice ever since we developed the
UnPellet mix and added the purple corn soon afterwards. Well, now it's
being discussed on the food channel. Here's an article that includes
statements by Caryl Levine of Lotus Foods, which is where we get the
organic Forbidden black rice in some of our rolls. You may enjoy reading
it here.
As we've mentioned before, the black rice, purple corn and other dark
foods like blueberries are loaded with anthocyanins, powerful
antioxidants, which are very good for you and your feathered friends.
Speaking of feathers, there is a type of chicken called a Silkie that has downy feathers all over. I (Lucy) have been going to a Chinese medical doctor who prescribed some medicine that comes with each dose inside two balls. She told me that it had "black boned chicken" in it. A friend looked on the internet and found this article about black boned chicken. Evidently, it is also high in antioxidants, in this case, one called carnosine.
We keep copies of the back issues of our articles from the newsletter as well as other nutrition articles we have written on our blog. Our blog is not being well used and we think it is not well known partly due to its location. Please help us spread the word about it. It's really not too hard. You just go to the "site" part of our web site, which is www.site.phoenixforagingrolls.com and look in the upper left corner of the page. Not the tabs under the banner. Above the banner. There you will see several words that are links to other parts of the site including the blog. If you want to check it out now click here. Please post some comments so we know you visited. You can read the article we sent out on purple corn on the blog.
