I was honored to be interviewed by the wonderful writer and author Leslie Goldman (@LeslieGoldman) for her article in this month’s O magazine - yep, that’s Oprah! In this article, old food myths were busted and new food rules were clarified. I weighed in on the issue of how much produce one should eat daily. Turns out, it’s easier than you think!
Here are some of my recommendations:
Make it easy on yourself and just include produce as half of every meal. Don’t get tangled up in serving sizes!
Include a side salad with lunch or roasted vegetables with dinner

Fresh vs. Frozen Blueberries: Frozen Blueberries
Stats: Frozen blueberries can be more convenient so you can have them year round when fresh is not available. When frozen, the nutrients stay sealed in, whereas fresh blueberries can spoil quickly and lose nutrients the longer they sit on the shelves and in your fridge.

Fox News Debate: Fast Food Delivery Vs. The Family Meal
Fast food is so pervasive in our society. Many times, it’s more accessible than a grocery store with fresh produce. Family mealtimes are becoming a thing of the past, due to time-poor duel working parents, and kids involved with a myriad of extracurricular activities.
Many of you may have heard recently that Burger King is now going to be experimenting with a delivery service in the DC metro area. For an extra $2 you can get your meal delivered to your home (just like a pizza). This is not what the D.C. area or our Nation needs. Now we don’t even have to g...

Fortunately, we have medical coverage through his job, but we are moving closer to our retirement years when that will end. It's hard to know what kind of changes will come about by that time, but thinking about it makes us aware of what those around us are going through. We have a pharmacy in town as well as a new Wal...

I did this because I have a distance prescription from my new optometrist, and an unchanged older one for reading from my previous optometrist. When ordering online, it can be fun at some of the sites, especially Zenni Optical, the one I used, as you can upload your photo and "try on" the glasses, not only to see how they look, but to see how the size looks on your face.

And at the end of the post you'll find links to other posts done in the past about Vitamins. Here are some facts about Vitamin B5 1. Vitamin B5 or Pantothenic Acid is a water soluble vitamin. This means that unlike Vitamin A, for example, it does not build up in your system, but excess is flushed out through the kidneys in the urine. 2. Vitamin B5 is found in many things that we eat, but is most abundant in eggs, meat, legumes, avocados, whol...

I can’t let 2011 go without ranting about some of the most absurd diet scams of the year. If you know me at all you know I loathe diets. How is it legal for companies to profit off of lies? They promise weight loss and health. Being thin and losing weight doesn’t make a person healthy. Your genetics and your behaviors influence your health – not the scale, not the BMI, and certainly not diets.
The truth is diets do not work in the long run. In fact, they set you up to suffer while you are on them, gain weight when you go off of them, and hate yourself for not being able to “stick to it”. Biolo...

Discuss or comment on this article.
What kind of new year’s resolution have you made for 2012?
Odds are at least one of them has to do with losing weight. Unfortunately, as many people have found over the years, this strategy does not work. Research has shown that diets don’t work, and that although people tend to lose weight initially, the weight plus more tends to return shortly after. We need to accept that fat doesn’t necessarily mean unhealthy, and thin doesn’t always correlate to being healthy. What works is having healthy habits that can carry you through life, and part of that means celebrating holidays and life milestones wit...

Inflammation in the body is both good and bad. Inflammation is good because it can be a warning sign that there is a part of our body that needs attention. Inflammation is also part of a healing process at times when a part of the body is injured or diseased. In each of these cases, the inflammation should be temporary.There are other conditions in the body that cause chronic inflammation, these may be related to things that we eat that we shouldn't. This was the case with me in the earlier post that I wrote about being lactose intolerant. It was causing many problems and much inflammation, an...

Thanksgiving and Christmas are times of the year when nuts are enjoyed more than usual, and Pecans are among my favorite.
