| Article Title :: Why Cholesterol-Reducing Diets Sometimes Fail |
| |
| If you have been diagnosed with high cholesterol, your doctor has probably recommended that you make dietary changes, such as reducing the amount of fat and cholesterol you eat. The problem is that this approach doesn’t seem to work for everyone. For some people, cholesterol levels remain high despite their best efforts on a cholesterol-lowering regime. When diet alone doesn’t work, cholesterol-lowering drugs are usually the next step.But there may be another solution. Researchers at Penn State University have discovered that people with systemic inflammation are less likely to be successful on a cholesterol-lowering diet.Systemic inflammation is a low-grade kind of infl (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Please Don't Bring _____ Into This Body |
| |
| Recently, when listening to a speaker on improving health habits, I heard a phrase that really rang true for me.The nutrition expert offered the audience a simple guideline to use when making food choices: "Please don't bring bad food into this body."The phrase struck me because it was such a simple, non-judgmental way to remind us all that we have choices.

But the concept has use far beyond our diets.Whether or not we choose to think about it, our day-to-day lives are full of choices. Fast food or fresh. Anger or forgiveness.

It has received a lot of attention in the past year, but many still are not aware of what it is exactlly and the harm it is capable of...I'm talking of trans-fatty acids, of course. Trans-fats, or hydrogenated oils, are simply vegetable oils that are put through the hydrogenation process to become solidified.
