Another Reason to Know Your Food

Posted on October 21, 2010 by John Elder

The latest recall in the food industry came out today. This time a Texas company is at fault. It’s scary to think what can happen just by eating food you pick up at your local grocery store. With this recall, tainted celery is being linked to five deaths! Yet one more reason to either grow [...]

The Chicken or the Egg

Posted on August 26, 2010 by John Elder

It’s the preverbal question, right?  And, with the recent egg recall, that question is now at the forefront of everyone’s mind.  My question is, how did we get here?  How is it possible that a country as technologically advances as the USA can let this happen?  The current egg recall is for half a billion [...]

The Vitamin D Deficiency

Posted on August 18, 2010 by John Elder

I read an interesting article from msnbc.com today about pregnant women and the link between preeclampsia and low levels of vitamin D. I find it interesting because I believe that as a society, we are chronically deficient of vitamin D.  Many doctors and researchers have long suggested that low levels of vitamin D can lead [...]

Apparently our Kids are Conveniently Fat

Posted on May 25, 2010 by John Elder

I have a lot of things swirling in my head after reading this from yahoo.com: ATLANTA – Health officials say one reason so many American kids are overweight is that few have a nearby place to play and exercise. Only about one in five homes have parks within a half-mile, and about the same number [...]

What Would Jesus Eat?

Posted on April 9, 2010 by John Elder

I should have posted this around Easter. This blog post from www.time.com is talking about researchers analyzing paintings of The Last Supper. Researchers are discovering that over the years artists have enlarged both portion sizes and head sizes of those in attendance in The Last Supper. Coincidence? I don’t think so. I think there’s a [...]

Be Afraid. Be VERY Afraid…

Posted on February 24, 2010 by John Elder

Time.com just released a list of the Top-10 Most Dangerous Foods. The list has some items that make a lot of sense, but it also includes your morning cup of coffee. Wait…what? Yes, thanks to the lawsuit filed against McDonald’s a few years ago, coffee is now considered one of the most dangerous foods. The [...]

10 Diseases Linked to Soda

Posted on September 30, 2009 by John Elder

Need I say more?  This stuff is not only dangerous…it’s deadly.  I have posted about the dangers of aspartame before, and now comes more proof that this stuff will kill you.  Pete Egoscue had a quote on his Twitter page from health economist Eric Finkelstein stating that if Americans drank water instead of sweetened beverages, they’d [...]

New Research on Sugar/Tumor Connection

Posted on August 24, 2009 by John Elder

Over the past couple of years I’ve become much more diet aware.  It’s not that I’m eating a totally vegan diet (that lasted for a couple of weeks), but I’ve become much more conscious about that I’m putting in my body.  Don’t get me wrong, I still love beer and pizza…just not all the time. [...]
