While it was great to see a segment on the evils of sugar aired on such a popular show, sadly, it fell short of hitting [...]

Forks over Knives

May 11, 2011

Forks over Knives is on its way to a theater near you. The creators claim that a meat based diet will kill you and a plant based diet will save your life.

March 14, 2011

(Open heart surgery. The field of work that Dr. Oz IS an expert in.)
I’m a little pissed.

The legendary Jack LaLanne died over the weekend at age 96. He was unmatched in his positive, upbeat and motivational persona. Much of what he had to say about fitness and health was spot on.

Man Cannot Live On Bread Alone

October 21, 2010

And contrary to a new discovery published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences journal last Monday, prehistoric man never lived on it at all.
As I see it, the grain advocates are getting really sneaky now. A recent article declared that prehistoric man ate “bread.” But was it really bread? Let’s see [...]

Bill Clinton and his Vegan Voyage

October 17, 2010

The cartoon to the left is a good example of vegan propaganda. Here they suggest that eating meat makes you obese and being a vegan makes you slim and strong. I guess this could be true given all the obese, lions, tigers, Cheetahs, panthers, etc. that exist in the world.
Though ludicrous, these little propaganda-bits [...]

Science as a Candle in the Dark

October 2, 2010

That of course is the subtitle of the late Carl Sagan’s 1995 book The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark. (Affiliate link.) A book I read on my honeymoon 14 years ago on the island of St. John. A book that changed the way I view everything.
