    some surprising benefits of weight loss

    [source] I’ve seen this graphic a lot, and every time I’m surprised by the number of benefits of weight loss. (Personally I’m hoping for reduction in depression, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol.) And this graphic doesn’t even go into benefits like a lower risk of all cancers. Obesity is the second biggest preventable cause of cancer after smoking. But how…

    Sucralose: all the sweetness without the calories

    I love this stuff. I put a single drop in my tea and it tastes sweet enough for me. A couple of drops in a large tumbler plus lemon juice, water, and ice and you have a fresh-tasting zero calorie lemonade in a minute. EZ-Sweetz is pure liquid sucralose, and you can use it to sweeten anything without adding calories…

    the link between ADHD and obesity

    When I was a kid I used to stare into space during school. My grades were fine (because it was an easy school and I was smart enough), but I never could pay attention for very long. Homework was torture because it required strict attention. Especially when I got older and went to a very “prestigious” junior high and high…

    where does the fat go when you lose weight?

    Have you ever wondered where the fat actually “goes” when you lose weight? I’ll be honest – I’ve never considered it thoroughly, but I just came across an article which details the process. Yes, we exhale lost fat [as CO2]. There it helps plants photosynthesize (if you’re feeling noble) and contributes to global warming (if you’re feeling guilty). The relatively…

    my chicken bone broth recipe

    My fat free chicken bone broth has way more protein than store bought chicken broth, bouillon cubes, or even homemade chicken stock that only cooks for a few hours. My chicken bone broth cooks for at least 24 hours, and all that good protein-y gelatin comes out of the bones. Plus, it is really delicious. Give it a try, and…
