  • Whirlpool says – Don’t forget to change your refrigerator water filters.

While many consumers embrace filtered water, there is a lack of understanding that a refrigerator water filter needs to be replaced every six months. Even though it might look, smell and taste good, impurities can still exist. Many refrigerators have an easy-access system, located conveniently at the bottom in the grille or just inside the refrigerator, to make changing the filter quick and easy. For added convenience, Whirlpool has a subscription service that automatically sends a filter to your home every six months. For more information please visit www.whirlpool.com/every6months

 

  • The next issue of PREVENTION features award-winning chef Rick Bayless (and Top Chef Masters contender!) making Mexican food easy with 5 one-pot dishes that are—with one "splurge exception" —under 425 calories and averaging less than $3.40 per serving.  Rick was on THE CBS EARLY SHOW this morning demonstrating his recipe from PREVENTION’s COOK! for Spicy Chipotle Beef.  All of the one-pot dishes by Bayless can be found online at Prevention’s website.

    We can’t tell you enough about how important it is to change out your refrigerator water filters on a regular basis. Just go out and find a company that sells them for a discount on the net.
