Beyond eight hours

What does it mean to sleep well?

What’s up everybody? It’s been a while. Hope everyone’s enjoying the holidays.

I just read an incredible book indicting irregular sleep as a major cause of virtually every major degenerative disease–diabetes, cancer, obesity, cardiovascular disease, etc.

What’s the deal with salt?

Processing is evil.

Salt as you know it isn’t really salt at all

Salt gets a bad rap for its links to health problems, and it is certainly dangerous if only because of its prevalence in our diet.  As my grandfather used to say, “salt is poison!”  But I’d like to argue that it’s not salt we ought to fear; its the processing. 

What’s the deal with vegetable oil?

Killing you.

Warning: be prepared to clean out your cabinet.

Out of all the conversations I have related to healthy eating, one of the most common subjects is vegetable oil.  Like processed carbs, vegetable oil is an incredibly destructive part of our diet that seems to be completely innocuous.  So here’s the deal.

Today’s rant is a little technical, but it’s potent stuff. There are two main parts.  One involves the unstable chemical structure of vegetable oils, and the other involves omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids.

Organic means healthy

You're eating what he's pouring.

Organic produce really does aid long term well being.

There’s a lot of skepticism about organic foods, and for good reason.  Why should you shell out extra cash for foods that are supposed to be healthy in the first place, especially when you’re not sure what organic means?  Let’s clear that up today.

Food continues to kill

People!  You still with me?  Things have been crazy around here. I’ve been living in South Korea for more than a year and half, but I’m finally heading home.  It feels strange, but it will be great to finally be home and hang out with my family and friends.

Anyway, I’ve been busy getting everything ready to go so I haven’t had time to get any articles up.  I’m working on it; there’s a whole bunch of great stuff coming up.   Hang tight.  I’m ditching the Weekly Sharefest because there didn’t seem to be a whole lot of interest, but I’m gonna try to hook you up with some short posts about some of the wild articles and videos I’ve been into.  There’s tons of great research going on, and there are so many people getting into the real deal with nutrition.  I’m no expert, but I’m gonna continue to throw up the best of what I’m reading about.

In the mean time, check out my updated about section.

Take care everybody, thanks for reading.
