If you see, like I just did, an ad on this site telling you that you are fat because of parasites, please know that it’s a huge load of crap (pun intended), and rest assured that ALL of us harbor parasites, fungi, mold, and spores, and we always will, and that anyone trying to sell [...]Wed, 27 Aug 2008 02:10:45 +0000
Let’s face it, none of us are the same. And when it comes to nutrition, what may work for your best friend may very well pack on ten extra pounds for you. Some of us need more protein than others.

It has a lot of great benefits and makes you feel all warm and fuzzy. But let’s face it: there are times [...]Mon, 25 Aug 2008 21:39:30 +0000

Can you imagine what you could do with a little more energy? Perhaps you could get a little more work done, spend some more time playing with your kids, power your way through a workout at the gym, or perhaps just do something fun. Sounds appealing, doesn’t it? Well, the sad fact is that although [...]Mon, 25 Aug 2008 16:00:55 +0000
