A little over a month ago, I posted my nutrient breakdown from FitDay. Jenjen asked me to list a breakdown of what I actually eat to hit those nutrient levels. So here are five days of eating, pulled from July 14-18. Just click on the thumbnails and you’ll get a lightbox with [...]
A study came out yesterday showing that an Atkins diet is better for weight loss, cholesterol levels, and blood sugar control. Let’s take a look.

A friend was describing my diet to his girlfriend and that quote in the subject was her retort. Now, considering that, unfortunately, I’m quite far from being a millionaire and I do practice what I preach, it’s quite obvious that you don’t have to be loaded to eat well. I can’t argue that [...]

Here’s a PDF that I found linked on Art DeVany’s blog written by Dr. Loren Cordain: Implications of Plio-Pleistocene Hominin Diets for Modern Humans
A few quotes I picked out, which I think are important in looking at the proper diet for humans. This first one (from page 4) further backs [...]
I was sent a link to this article via my Contact Form, so I thought I’d give my thoughts on it: Diet Overkill: 25 Of the Most Ridiculous (and Ineffective) Popular Diets. There are 25 of them, so I’m not going to go through every one, but let’s take a look at what Ms. [...]
