• Sea Salt.

Stir-Fry Preparatiom;
1. Place the beef in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes, until firm but not totally frozen,for easy slicing. (I like this hint)
Cut into paper-thin slices against the grain.
2. In a large bowl, whisk the broth, soy sauce, orange juice concentrate, lime juice, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger.
Stir in the cornstarch until no lumps remain.
Set aside.
3. Spray a wok or large skillet with cooking spray.
Add the oil and warm over medium heat.
Add the peppers, onion, and broccoli and cook, stirring, 4 to 5 minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften but are still crisp.
Increase the heat to high and add the beef.
Cook, stirring, 3 to 4 minutes, until the beef begins to take on color.
4. Reduce the heat to low and add the broth mixture.
Cook 2 to 3 minutes longer, until the sauce thickens and the beef is no longer pink inside.
Season with salt if needed and garnish with scallions.
Serve immediately.
Voila, an excellent stir-fry recipe that your family will love and only you and I need know how healthy it is.

These vitamins are involved in the creation of red blood cells, which carry oxygen and nutrients to all body cells, including those of the scalp, follicles, and growing hair.
Without enough B-vitamins, the cells can starve, causing shedding, slow growth, or weak hair that is prone to breaking.
Zinc
The mineral zinc is involved in tissue growth and repair, including hair growth.
It also helps keep the oil glands around the hair follicles working properly.
Low levels of zinc can cause hair loss, slow growth, and dandruff.
The amount you get from eating foods rich in zinc is plenty to keep your tresses gorgeous.
