One should not need much when they are having a delightful day at a tropical luxury resort spa. If you stay at one that is truly a destination spa like The Harbor Beach Marriott and Spa in Ft. Lauderdale, one doesn’t need much. They have absolutely everything one could ever desire for a wonderful vacation with family, friends or a trip just for the girls! You get the tropical luxury vacation here without ever having to worry about a passport taking up any room in that lovely new handbag! So take a look at what I would pack for a day at their spa and pool. What more could one find essential other than a cocktail in hand from their oceanfront 3030 Ocean Bar.

Poultry, including white meat chicken and turkey, are naturally lower in saturated fat than beef, but are akin to pork loin.  Poultry may be easier to digest for some individuals who are sensitive to all fats.  The saturated fat content for 3 ounces is only .9mg. Poultry is high in Tryptophan, an amino acid that is the precursor to Serotonin, a neurotransmitter (brain chemical), that affects mood and appetite. Niacin, a B vitamin that is important for energy production and a healthy cardiovascular system is abundant in poultry, 57% DV. Again, grass fed and antibiotic-hormone free poultry offers the best nutritional advantage for this lean meat.
