Insurance companies have a number of pre-existing medical conditions that add to the risk associated with insuring someone. Whereas most pre-existing medical conditions are illnesses that directly impact the mortality of an individual, several politicians and advocacy groups question whether some insurers have taken these clauses too far.

In the past, some insurance companies believed that a victim of domestic violence brought the same health risks to the table as those with pre-existing medical conditions such as diabetes and heart disease. As a result, insurers chose to deny coverage or “rate up” a policy based on a history of abuse.

While the most recent instances of this underwriting practice occurred in the health insurance market in the mid-to-late nineties, domestic violence victims may also find themselves vulnerable to insurance discrimination in the life and disability markets.

Victims of domestic violence are seven times more likely to go back to their abuser. The risk of harm associated with leaving an abusive partner doubles once the victim decides to leave for good, according to statistics by the Family Violence Prevention Fund, a San Francisco-based advocacy group concerned with educating the public about domestic abuse.

Violence in the home can also have lasting psychological and physical effects on its victims. The FVPF reports that women who are victims of domestic violence are 80 percent more likely to have a stroke, 70 percent more likely to suffer from heart disease, 60 percent more likely to have asthma, and 70 percent more likely to drink heavily than women who have not been exposed to partner violence.

And it doesn’t stop there. Domestic violence can have a devastating impact on reproductive health, adding to the likelihood of miscarriages, and has been linked to the prevalence of risky sexual behavior and sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV, according to AARDVARC.org, a non-profit organization dedicated to combating family and relationship violence.

The FVPF estimates that intimate partner abuse, rape, and stalking costs the medical and mental health services industry .3 billion annually in direct healthcare costs, in addition to the cost of lost productivity at work.

While domestic violence may raise certain mortality concerns, some say there isn’t enough evidence for insurers to cancel or deny a policy, create exclusions or charge a higher premium based on that fact. Kim McKeown, spokesperson for the Society of Actuaries (SOA) says that in some states there are no laws on the books or limited protections involving adverse actions against domestic violence victims, but it’s highly unlikely that an insurance company would take such a position.

“We haven’t seen or heard any evidence of underwriting domestic violence as a pre-existing medical condition in the life insurance market,” says McKeown. “It is allowed in 14 states, but it’s our understanding that it’s not being applied by insurers and that very few insurers would take that approach.”

Other insurance experts agree.

“It wouldn’t be considered a “pre-existing condition” per se, but it may factor into the underwriters thought process as it pertains to a final rate class,” says Ryan Pinney, brokerage director for Pinney Insurance Center, Inc. in Roseville, Calif.

“However, this would be hard to substantiate and even harder to identify, if in fact, it had influenced the underwriting decision. This is because your typical underwriter has a series of underwriting guidelines that they must follow when making an underwriting decision.”

Pinney adds that most insurance carriers follow two primary reinsurance manuals.

“The most popular are Suisse Re and Gen Re’s versions of these. We have copies of both and “domestic violence” isn’t listed as an underwriting criteria that can or would cause any kind of rating,” Pinney says. “This leaves only the personal opinions and decision making ability of the actual underwriter to first, identify a problem; second, determine that it may lead to increased mortality; and finally, find some other “ratable” reason to increase the underwriting class or decline coverage. I don’t think this is likely and to my knowledge it has never occurred with us or our clients.”

Also, Pinney notes that an insurer would have to provide the applicant with a reason for the decline or reduction in health class.

“I’ve never had this situation come up,” says Jack Dewald, chair of the LIFE Foundation, and president and owner of Agency Services, Inc., a life and health brokerage in Memphis, Tenn.

“The only possible reason a history of domestic violence could become an underwriting concern is if the fallout resulted in a mortality issue such as a serious long-term injury. It would be the injury itself and not how that person sustained it.”

Dewald adds that it’s doubtful that a victim would admit to domestic abuse on an insurance application for fear of reprisal.

“An insurer would only be aware of domestic abuse if it showed up on the individual’s medical records where the doctor indicated that he or she suspected domestic violence and called the authorities, otherwise this isn’t something a life underwriter would look for,” says Dewald.

<b>History</b>

In 1994, Charles Schumer, a former New York Representative, surveyed 16 insurance companies and learned that eight companies in the health, life and disability lines of insurance, denied policies for women who had been victims of domestic violence.

In 1995, the Boston Globe reported that nine major insurers canceled or denied coverage to women based on a history of domestic abuse.

Following reports of this practice in the media, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners issued the Unfair Discrimination Against Subjects of Abuse in Life Insurance Model Act or MDL-896 that specifically outlines prohibitions regarding unfair discrimination by life insurance professionals on the basis of abuse status.

Still, since the NAIC has no regulatory authority over business practices in the insurance industry, the states would have to adopt the model for it to become law, says Vanessa Sink, spokesperson for the NAIC.

“Each state regulates insurance individually. The act must be adopted by the state legislature for it to become state law — before it can be enforced by the state department,” says Sink. “Also, a state may already have a law that covers domestic violence as a pre-existing condition or have handled the regulation in another way. The states are not required to adopt an NAIC model.”

Connecticut, District of Columbia, Kentucky, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nevada, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Vermont and Wyoming do not have laws prohibiting insurance discrimination on the basis of domestic violence in the life insurance market, according to the National Network to End Domestic Violence, an advocacy group concerned with ending domestic abuse.

North Carolina introduced a statute that bans the use of domestic violence as a pre-existing medical condition in individual and group health insurance plans on March 1, 2010.

“We maintain that NCDOI does not consider domestic violence to be a pre-existing condition; it doesn’t meet our statutory definition of a medical condition so it could not be considered a pre-existing condition in any policy including disability and life insurance. Our same arguments from last fall and our regulatory oversight and interpretation of North Carolina’s insurance laws would not change,” says Kristin Milam, a spokesperson for the North Carolina Department of Insurance.

“This practice is prohibited for specified health products and can be found in the unfair trade practice 38a-816(18). The statute applies to various types of health coverage, such as major medical, HMO coverage, hospital and medical-surgical coverage. However, the law does not apply to life insurance or disability insurance,” says Connecticut Insurance Department spokesperson Dawn McDaniel. “Me or my colleagues are not aware of any complaints related to this topic.”

The Vermont Department of Banking, Insurance, Securities and Health Care Administration (BISHCA), doesn’t have laws in place that explicitly prohibit domestic violence discrimination in health, disability and life insurance, but Michael Bertrand, Deputy Commissioner of Insurance, says that the department does have laws that prohibit any rating practice that is discriminatory and domestic violence would fall under that prohibition.

“We have never seen an application that deals with domestic violence and if we ever saw something like that, we would never allow it,” says Bertrand.

If you believe your insurance application was denied because of domestic abuse in the past, there are some steps you can take to remedy the situation.

“They should talk to the insurance regulator in their state or speak with a consumer advocate. Most departments of insurance have offices where consumers can file complaints,” says Nancy Durborow, a specialist for the National Network to End Domestic Violence. “Also, see what the process is for filing a complaint, in some states the insurance commissioner can investigate a company’s underwriting guidelines.”

How long can you live?

One small change in your health condition can be the first sign of a major health problem. But usually we tend to ignore them until it is too late. You have a wonderful family and good job. But suddenly you notice that you cannot control your temper any more, and you shout at your kids without a good reason and you start forgetting important things at work and making costly mistakes.

You have been passionate with your spouse for many years, but now you do not feel anything anymore. Intimacy is now a chore, not pleasure. And then you start having chest pain when walking. You go to your doctor and get tests done just to learn that you now have a heart disease. Then what is next? How long do you think you will live?

According to the Bible, the first man, Adam lived 930 years. Impossible, of course, for us. But the longest living person on the earth, Jeanne Calment, lived 122 years and 164 days. At least 10 people lived more than 116 years. This means that it is possible to live more than 100 years and to be active. But how? The average life span is about 80 years and does not mean an active life. So what is the secret to live more than 100 years? What is the secret to not die prematurely?

Two questions you have to answer

Unfortunately official medicine denies the existence of the fountain of youth. So it was not possible to find it in the medical textbooks or articles. Therefore I decided to do my own investigation to find the answers to only 2 questions:

1. Why we may be at risk of dying prematurely.

2. How to prolong our lives naturally.

I decided to find the proven respectful studies to get the answers. But it was not that easy.

Normally they do medical scientific studies on a huge number of people, who do not know certain information,which can lead to bias in reporting results. The money for these studies is coming from big pharmaceutical companies to prove the efficiency of their new drugs. They want to sell. But there are two problems with these so called scientific studies.

First – is the existence of bias 1. If you are interested in getting your drug sold, which report are you going to publish: favorable or negative?

Second problem is that Big Pharma is about selling drugs. Do you think they are interested in making you healthier and/or prolonging your life naturally? Do you think they are going to give money for this?

Longevity secrets – from real people

First thing I realized was: it can be done. Jeanne Calment, who lived 122 years and 164 days, was pretty active until the every end of her life and was not suffering from any significant chronic conditions. She even smoked until age 117. But how could she achieve this state of health till the very end? In medical school I learned that people die because they are sick. Therefore healthy people do not die. Sounds like an axiom. Turned out I was wrong.

Can people die healthy?

First breakthrough was the Kitava study in 1989 2.

It started with Staffan Lindeberg, MD from the Department of Medicine, University of Lund, Sweden. He decided to study the population of the Island of Kitava in Papua, New Guinea, which is about 24,000. To his surprise even old people over there did not have heart disease, diabetes, strokes, high blood pressure, cancer and any other health condition we hear about every day. Juptner in 1960 has got the same results. So I thought: this is it! Now i know where to look for my answers. Healthy people do not die! But there was a big problem with Kitava study: the average life span was about 45 years! It means: they were dying healthy! So being healthy does not mean that we live longer!

Same thing with a famous Danish Eskimo study 3.

Tho Danish scientists Bang and Dyerberg discovered, that Eskimos have almost no heart attacks, our number 1 killer in the world, despite the fact that their cholesterol is not low. But do they live linger? Not that I know of.

Second breakthrough was Blue Zones, areas of the world where people live longer 4.

Because official medicine does not give the prescription for longevity Dan Buettner, journalist not a doctor, from National Geographic went to Japan to learn more about Okinawa longevity secrets. But according to demographer S. Jay Olshansky of University of the Illinois in Chicago, as well as 51 longevity experts in their position statement wrote in 2002 that “There are no lifestyle changes, surgical procedures, vitamins, antioxidants, hormones, or techniques of genetic engineering available today with the capacity to repeat the gains in life expectancy that were achieved during the 20th century.” 5

Really?

Fortunately to the humankind they did not know about this statement and Blue Zones – a few areas on earth where people simply live longer.

What they did to find longevity secrets: they went to Blue Zones

To get the truth about longevity secrets journalist Dan Buettner and other members if his expedition identified the Blue Zones: Sardinia, Italy: Okinawa, Japan; Ikaria, Greece; Loma Linda, California, US: Costa Rica. They decided to learn from real people, not from theory, how to live longer. But what did they find?

None of them relied on the modern western medicine. Period. But does it mean that it is bad? Not really. Because with the help of the modern western medicine we are going to discover the secrets of longevity later on.

Also you do not have to go to deserted island to live better – Loma Linda, California is only 60 miles from toxic Los Angeles. But this made the mystery even more complicated: if it is not the place, it is not the specific fad diet, it is not the air, so what is it? That is why the Blue Zone expedition learned and documented what differs Blue Zones from the rest of the world.

Is it really water from the Fountain of Youth?

When a Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de Leon came to Florida in 1513 BC, he was looking for the Fountain of Youth. He did not learn medicine and he did not know anything about genes and vitamins. But he already knew: it has to be water. And he was right: they drink plenty of water in Blue Zones, but not too much, especially in Nicoya, Costa Rica. They say that it is because of the high content of calcium in it. But there is plenty of calcium in green vegetables, especially organic. Or calcium OTC pills. But do they prolong life? Not that I know of. Do we have to drink enough water to live longer? Absolutely!

Water is necessary for detoxification: it helps you to get rid of your toxic waste. The question is: is it water itself, or it is something in the water we do not know about?

1550 BC, Venice, Italy there was no modern technology, no Internet and no microscope. But the first Anti Aging manual was written by Luigi Cornaro –”The Sure and Certain Method of Attaining a Long and Healthful Life”. Without tools and information he figured out that moderation is the key. He did what he preached and he lived about 90 years and maybe even more. It took scientists more that 500 years to discover that Luigi Cornaro was right. They took two groups of mice. One of them was fed as much as they wanted to. Another group was given food just to keep mice alive. Guess what group lived longer? The mice that were given just enough food to survive. But mice are not people. So they did the same with monkeys and they got results, suggestive, that calorie restriction is beneficial for monkeys as well. But did it do the same to people?

In the Blue Zones it does.

How Much Should You Eat?

Calorie restriction is the main feature of the all Blue Zones lifestyles. But there is a big problem with calorie restriction alone: if you do not have enough calories, how can you combat infection or trauma or other stress situations? In Kitava Island they do not have plenty of food and they die on average at age of 45. So the longevity secret is not only less food to eat. But what else?

If you ask a dermatologist about the sun exposure, he will tell you how dangerous it is. Fortunately, they did not know about this in the Blue Zones. And they spent a lot of time in the sun. Do not think they were sunbathing! They did not have time for it. They had sun exposure naturally, as a part of their busy life. Have you ever seen a monkey on the beach?

Not really. Because monkeys know how to do it right. As a child I learned that the sun is good for me. My mom told me that if I did not get sun exposure I would get a bone condition called rickets, because the sun is good for the bones. What I did not know was: sun makes our immune system stronger and better, protects us from infection and cancer.

Not all times of the day are good for sun exposure, though. The best hours are before 10 AM and after 5 PM, because at those times you get more UVA and less UVB, which is harmful. But if you have to be in the sun from 10 AM to 5 PM use clothing, umbrellas and hats to protect yourself from UVB, because sunscreens are not that reliable.

It’s In What You Eat

What about living longer? They have plenty of sun in Africa, Kitava or Florida. But they do not live that long.

Could the secret be the magic food they eat? Maybe. They tend to eat more tomatoes and nuts. And this is understandable. Nuts are good for your health, because they are good for your heart: They have plenty of omega 3 fatty acids. Like fish, that is the staple of Eskimo diet. They do not have heart attacks. But Eskimo do not live long, either.

Tomatoes are different from nuts. They are the part of a rainbow diet. Think about it: if fruits or vegetables are of bright color, they are actually inviting you to eat them, and they are good

Have you been declined for life insurance? Have you been told that you can only get graded coverage or the rates are very high? The question really is, have you done your homework and asked the right questions from the right people? When your health is not so perfect, selecting a life insurance company and plan is more than just about quotes and financial ratings!

The first thing you need to do is find an agent or a company that you feel comfortable working with and that has many years of experience in the field of impaired health life insurance. You may even want to ask for referrals. Did you know for example that some insurance companies can be great for diabetics who only take a pill but horrible for diabetics on insulin? Did you know that if you have had cancer, the type of cancer can make a difference from company to company and even plan to plan. Did you also know that getting approved for term life insurance can be more difficult than getting approved for whole life or universal life insurance? Yes, I know, as many clients have told us, it does not seem to make any sense. Whether you get a 0,000 term life insurance plan or a 0,000 whole life insurance plan should make no difference in the approval process. Well, it does! The insurance companies are able to be a bit more lenient with someone who will spend 0/month for a whole life policy than with someone who will spend /month for a term life insurance policy. More premiums paid for the same coverage amount, may equal lower risk for the insurance company.

So, what is the next step? Once you have found the right agent/insurance company, you need to ask a lot of questions of course. Make sure that you understand exactly what plan is being quoted to you and the process of approval for your life insurance application. Secondly, and most importantly, since your health has not or is not the best, you need to give the agent as much information as possible about your health history. Don’t hide information! This will only hurt your results now or even worse, if you do get approved, your claim may be denied later for fraud. You see, as opposed to what you may have heard, the more information you give the insurance company when applying for life insurance, the more they will trust you and the better the results. Giving the broker the correct medical history, will also allow him/her to locate the best company for your needs right from the start and avoid wasting your time and his.

This is a basic idea of applying for life insurance when you have or have had health issues. Feel free to contact us for more. There is NO charge to ask questions and you may ask as many as you need to.

A retractable needle safety syringe manufacturers is provided having a braking mechanism. The braking mechanism may be disposed at a proximal portion of a syringe manufacturers body of the syringe manufacturers. The braking mechanism may comprise a brake member which is traversable between a braking position and a released position. At the braking position, the brake member frictionally engages an outer surface of the shaft of a plunger of the syringe manufacturers. The frictional engagement counterbalances a retraction force that urges a piston of the syringe manufacturers toward a retracted position. When the brake member is traversed to the released position, the brake member does not press against the outer surface of the shaft. As such, the retraction force may traverse the piston toward the retracted position and traverse a needle and needle holder into the body of the syringe manufacturers.

1. A retractable safety syringe manufacturers for preventing accidental needle pricking and needle reuse, the syringe manufacturers comprising: a syringe manufacturers body defining a proximal portion and a distal portion; a needle removably engageable to the body distal portion; a piston disposed within the body and biasable to the body proximal portion via a biasing force when the piston is traversed toward the body distal portion, the piston being traversable between an engaged position and a retracted position; a shaft disposed within the body and extending through the proximal portion of the body, traversal of the shaft through the body operative to traverse the piston between the engaged and retracted positions; a brake member comprising at least two lobes and at least two bases, the bases and lobes being attached to each other, the lobes contacting only the shaft and the bases only contacting the syringe manufacturers body; wherein the bases deflect the lobes inward and against the shaft when the brake member is in a braking position, the lobes being normally biased outward so as to be sufficiently disconnected from the shaft to allow the biasing force to retract the piston when the brake member is in a released position.

2. The syringe manufacturers of claim 1 wherein the brake member has three lobes and three bases.

3. The syringe manufacturers of claim 1 wherein the brake member has six lobes and five bases.

4. The syringe manufacturers of claim 1 wherein the brake member comprises a first half and a second half pivotable with respect to each other about a living hinge, the first and second halves collectively forming the lobes and bases.

5. The syringe manufacturers of claim 4 wherein the first half has a post and the second half has a hole sized and configured to receive the post.

6. The syringe manufacturers of claim 1 wherein the lobes have a concave configuration sized and configured to an outer periphery of the shaft.

7. A retractable safety syringe manufacturers for preventing accidental needle pricking and reuse, the syringe manufacturers comprising: a syringe manufacturers body defining a proximal portion and a distal portion; a needle removably engageable to the body distal portion; a piston disposed within the body and biasable to the body proximal portion via a biasing force when the piston is traversed toward the body distal portion, the piston being traversable between an engaged position and a retracted position; a shaft disposed within the body and extending through the proximal portion of the body, traverse of the shaft through the body operative to traverse the piston between the engaged and retracted positions; a brake member traversable between a braking position and a released position, an inner periphery of the brake member having a concave configuration sized and configured so as to contact an outer surface of the shaft when the brake member is in the braking position for providing a force substantially equal to the biasing force when the brake member is at the braking position, the brake member being normally biased such that the inner periphery of the brake member does not engage the shaft so as to allow the piston to be retracted under the biasing force when the brake member is in the released position.

8. The syringe manufacturers of claim 7 wherein the first and second halves are fabricated from a unitary material.

9. The syringe manufacturers of claim 7 wherein the first and second halves are attached to each other via a living hinge.

10. The syringe manufacturers of claim 7 wherein the first and second halves collectively form a groove about an outer periphery of the brake member.

11. The syringe manufacturers of claim 10 further comprising an o ring disposed within the groove.

12. The syringe manufacturers of claim 7 wherein the first and second halves collectively form a groove about an inner periphery thereof.

13. The syringe manufacturers of claim 12 further comprising an o ring disposed within the groove.

14. The syringe manufacturers of claim 13 wherein the o ring displaces the first and second halves of the brake member away from the shaft when the brake member is in the released position such that the biasing force traverses the piston toward the retracted position.
Hypodermic needles are used on a regular basis by medical professionals such as doctors, nurses and other medicine related fields. The typical hypodermic needle has a syringe manufacturers body with a hollow interior cavity. A piston is slideably disposed within the syringe manufacturers body and may be traversed between a proximal position and a distal position. A shaft may be fixedly attached to the piston and extend through a proximal portion of the syringe manufacturers body. A thumb platform may be attached to the proximal portion of the shaft. The thumb platform may be traversed toward or away from the proximal portion of the syringe manufacturers body to traverse the piston toward the distal position or the proximal position, respectively. The distal portion of the syringe manufacturers body may have a needle attached thereto. The syringe manufacturers body piston and the distal portion of the syringe manufacturers body define a variable fluid chamber. The variable fluid chamber may be filled with fluidic medication to be injected into a patient. In the typical hypodermic needle, the needle is fixedly engaged to the distal portion of the syringe manufacturers body. Also, the piston may be positioned anywhere between the proximal position and the distal position. The user may release the thumb platform and the piston will remain at such position because there is no biasing force urging the piston back toward the retracted position.

In use, the hypodermic needle may be provided to the medical professional without fluidic medication filled within the variable fluid chamber. The user may traverse the piston toward the distal position. The needle of the hypodermic needle may be inserted into a fluidic medication container. The user may retract the piston toward the proximal position thereby transferring fluidic medication from the container into the variable fluid chamber. The user may release the thumb platform and the piston is not traversed to the proximal position because there is no biasing force which urges the piston back toward the proximal position.

The medical professional may remove trapped air within the variable fluid chamber by inverting the syringe manufacturers such that the needle is pointing upwardly, tapping the outside of the syringe manufacturers body to urge the air bubbles toward the needle, and depressing the thumb platform slightly to eject the air bubbles from the variable fluid chamber. The medical professional may release the thumb platform, and the piston is not retracted back toward the proximal position. The medical professional may insert the needle into a skin of the patient and inject the fluidic medication into the patient by traversing the piston toward the distal position. Once the piston is at the distal position, the fluidic medication is injected into the patient and the medical professional removes the needle from the patient. At this point, the needle contaminated and exposed and is a health-risk to the medical professional or other people who may handle the syringe manufacturers. Also, drug addicts may reuse the needle.

The risks associated with the spread of blood-borne pathogens through use of prior art hypodermic needles are significant and well documented. In recent years, the public has become increasingly aware of the health hazards associated with needle reuse and accidental needle prickings. These risks are most prevalent among certain groups of people, such as drug addicts, drug users (e.g., diabetics), medical personnel and healthcare providers. In fact, more than twenty blood-borne pathogens can be transmitted by the reuse of needles or accidental needle prickings, just a few of which include human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, malaria, tuberculosis, and herpes.

I just returned from a wonderfully inspirational visit to San Francisco. The trip was the California Walnut Board’s Spring Salad event. The day we spent in San Francisco and Sonoma was breathtaking and information-packed. I came back more committed than ever to sharing my enthusiasm for the importance of cooking and eating well.

It was great to meet with Dr. Michael Roizen, the co-author of the best-selling YOU: Staying Younger, coauthored with Dr. Mehmet Oz, as well as all the other best-selling YOU: books. He is the co-founder of RealAge, and author and co-author of the best-selling Real-Age books.

Dr. Roizen emphasizes that we can reset the clock by choosing to eat well and exercise. If you have ever felt depressed or overwhelmed by listening to the doom and gloom broadcast by some health reporters, Dr. Roizen’s simple upbeat approach is a relief . According to this well-qualified expert, simple change can help all of us undo past damage and feel better, live longer, and be healthier.

There were two interesting pieces of information that he shared with us that I’d like to share with all of you. According to Dr. Roizen, eating a small snack of six walnuts before a meal with a drink of some kind – perhaps a glass of wine or some mineral water, he didn’t specify – can actually make you less hungry for dinner. The fats in the nuts are healthful but they also have the effect of blocking your hunger. The good fat in nuts signals your body to release the chemicals that tell it that it’s full. Now that is my definition of a happy hour.

Dr. Roizen also explained that nuts are not dangerous to people with diverticulitis. The idea that nuts will bother or be dangerous to individuals with this very common condition of small pockets in the intestinal wall is simply a medical myth. This is great news for anyone who has been passing up tasty and nutritious nuts.

Being nuts about nuts, I am thrilled to have even more reasons to serve them. Below is one of my favourite walnut recipes. Simple and elegant, it’s perfect if you are looking for something a bit different. Now you can also have the satisfaction of knowing you are not just serving dinner but a banquet of antioxidants and ALA a plant-based Omega-3 fatty acid. How is that for feeling elegant and virtuous, at once?

“Agliata” walnut sauce

on brilliant green fettuccini

Agliata is a garlic walnut sauce that dates from medieval times. This is my own recipe – creamy but not too rich. If you don’t like strong garlic, leave it out or just rub the casserole with the clove. I like a lot of garlic, which is also a super food. I serve this dish with salmon or sautéed shrimp. It is perfect with just a salad, too.

2 pieces of bread with the crusts removed, cut/torn in small pieces and placed in a food processor or blender.

Pour 1 cup of milk over the bread.

Toast 1cup of walnuts in a dry pan for 3-5 minutes at med-high heat.

Add the toasted walnuts and 1 clove of crushed garlic.

Pulse

Add 4 tbsp. of good quality olive oil

Pulse.

Add ¾ cup of freshly grated Reggianno parmesan cheese.

Pulse.

Transfer the sauce to a casserole that can hold the pasta.

Toast ¼ cup bread crumbs with 1 tbsp. of slightly crushed walnuts and set aside. Be careful not to burn them.

Cook the pasta al dente. Do not overcook. Look for a good brand of spinach pasta, with natural ingredients, and slightly undercook it. The pasta will continue to cook in the casserole. Reserve ¼ cup of the pasta water to thin your sauce. Add the drained pasta to the sauce and mix. Add the pasta water to thin the sauce slightly. Toss with the toasted crumb-nut mixture. Add black pepper to taste. Serve immediately when it’s very hot. This dish looks very beautiful and fresh.
