High fructose corn syrup is in everything these days. When I was at the grocery looking for applesauce, I picked up the one labeled Original and it contained HFCS. To me there is nothing "original" about HFCS.
A recent study from researchers at Princeton illustrated just how bad HFCS is.
HFCS causes obesity, promotes fat gain around the mid-section and increases triglycerides in the blood.
Am I right to be outraged that foods label "original" contain such a dangerous additive or is HFCS not really all that bad?
A friend of mine and I were talking today. She was telling me about how her mother thinks she should be getting up at 8 am. Many people would consider this normal. Society would probably agree. Others, might even think 8 am is too late. From my friend’s perspective, however, this was just way too early to be waking up in the morning.
Do you know where your food comes from? Do you know how the food you eat is farmed, housed, treated, shipped? I am talking about more than just the meat on your plate. I am also talking about the fruits, the vegetables, the grains.
Here are a few links to get you involved with your own most basic needs, one of which is the need to eat, the need to feed your family.
Forget everything you know about how to motivate people - whether at work, at school, at home. According to Daniel H. Pink, the author of the New York Time's bestselling book Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us, we've got it all wrong.
Being a critical medical researcher, I give advice to my friends, particularly my friends who are also parents, about vaccination. I do not do so in a forceful manner, I just ask people to bear in mind what they are putting into their bodies, considering the toxic "non-medicinal ingredients" such as glycine and aluminum hydrochloride, that comprise a good deal of new vaccines. I became quite passionate about arguing against vaccination during the H1N1 panic, and as new vaccines are being released en masse now - for example the "TwinRix" vaccine recommended for anyone traveling s
Temperatures on earth have been rising and falling over billions of years, and evidence that man's pre-dominantly responsible is far from conclusive (particularly since our existence only counts for a tiny fraction of the evolutionary timeline). However, the danger of exhausting current energy supply is beyond dispute, and more likely to affect us sooner than the need to seek inspiration from a certain biblical shipwright.
Poison Ivy, Poison Oak, Poison Sumac, the mere mention of these names send most people checking their medicine cabinets for calmine lotion....is there a reason this weed exists?
I discovered some mosquito larva in a couple of centimeters of water sitting in a RubberMaid tote in our back yard and ask the question - should they stay or should they go? On the one hand, this is a great chance to observe an insect lifecycle in action. On the other ... they're mosquitoes.
When it comes to global worries about Peak anything, Water is of the greatest concern to human survival. Peak Oil doesn't even come close; but it sure gets alot more media attention.
In a report put out by the Greater Boston Physicians for Social Responsibility, “Environmental Threats to Healthy Aging”, the authors have indicated ways to reduce exposure to some of the toxicants in our every day lives.
Is the purpose of Communism just to kill all of the people that can see the alien presence? I figure that this is why disclosure is not forthcoming. The aliens have experienced plenty of human ‘acceptance’ throughout history. That is why real history is hidden and vaulted away in places like the Vatican. Are bluebloods aliens? Are they Khazars or Ashkenazi? Is the Zionist conspiracy to cover up their extraterrestrial origins? Were the Bolsheviks murdering alien whistleblowers?
Cats are one of the most adorable animals that most people in the world love to keep as pets. Cats can be trained with ease due to their unusual ability of understanding & learning.

There may be more to losing weight than just what we eat and how much we move. In fact, many of the chemicals surrounding our food and how it's packaged can interfere with our hormones and endocrine functions, causing weight gain. In order to lose weight, a greener approach to our food and environment may be needed to really get our bodies on track and functioning properly. Read more in the post!

My memories have smells- the differentiated effusions of coffee. As a child it was the smell of all things right with the world. Apparently, researchers have found that it is also the smell of all things healthy with the world.
I'm almost attached to my iPod!...almost.Every other teen or young ault is. It's like once it's in the ear they're automatically in a trance and the music brings them places that can only be dreamed of or imagined... Have you seen them? these kids...on the train, on the bus, crossing the STREET?? They're attached! fixated.
