| Article Title :: But Isn't Meat Protein Superior to Plant Protein? |
| |
| Haven’t you always thought that meat protein was superior to plant protein, and that you had to eat meat protein to get “complete” protein for your health and fitness?And the only way you could get so-called “complete” protein from plant foods was to mix and match certain plant sources of food?This is certainly what we were all raised to believe, isn’t it?

| Article Title :: But Won't Eating Chicken and Fish Lower My Cholesterol? |
| |

They, although well-intended, are misinformed. They simply don’t realize how much cholesterol is in all animal products, including chicken and fish.As Dr.John M (read full article) |

| Article Title :: I Have Cancer? But I Feel So Good(Part 2 of 2) |
| |
| What does the world’s major health organization say about health?According to the World Health Organization, health has little to do with how you feel and a lot to do with “the state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.”According to Webster’s Dictionary, health has to do with how well the cells, organs, glands, and tissues function at any given time. Can you tell how well you and your body parts are functioning on the inside by how you feel at any given moment?Not necessarily. The truth is, often you can not tell for sure whether you are healthy or not.What’s an example of how you c (read full article) |

| |
| I consider myself well aware of general nutrition issues, and specifically the need for fiber (or fibre in some countries) in my diet. What I recently discovered though, is that I was not getting as much fiber as I thought I was. I then set about to become more "fiber smart", and here is what I learned.I already knew, from personal experience actually, that increasing my fiber intake had taken the word constipation out of my life. That felt good! I have also learned that the extra fiber is probably decreasing my chance of suffering from Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, heart attack, cholesterol, and obesity.When I studied my diet by using the "USDA National Nutrient Dat (read full article) |
