Going Overboard
It seems that every day we're hearing about some new "super-food" that's the latest cure for everything. With the typical American diet leading to alarmingly high rates of diabetes, heart disease, cancer, obesity and more, it's tempting to jump on every bandwagon that comes along. Why not dig in deeper to find out the facts and myths concerning each of these claims before trying the latest fad diet or "super-food"? Recently, I was doing just that when I found an interesting website that invites us to change our point of view on food altogether. It's not a new concept to me, but one I've heard a lot about over the years. This website just pulls together the information in an organized way. I'm not saying I necessarily agree with everything the author says; I simply found it to be interesting and thought-provoking. Certainly worthy of more research and pondering.
What was once okay is now bad for you, what we think is healthy today will not be tomorrow...crazy world we live in!
