  • Why We Get Fat

    Why We Get Fat is an invaluable key in our understanding of an international epidemic and a guide to what each of us can do about it. A follow up to his New York Times best seller, Good Calories, Bad Calories, Taubes reveals the bad nutritional science of the last century, none more damaging or misguided than the “calories-in, calories-out” model of why we get fat, and the good science that has been ignored, especially regarding insulin’s regulation of our fat tissue.

Fitness Tip

  • The single most important key to getting in shape is hard work, right? Nope. Sacrifice? Wrong. Good nutrition? It certainly helps but not the answer I was looking for.

    The single most important key to getting in shape is HONESTY WITH YOURSELF. Are you really doing your best or are you going through the motions? Are you keeping your portions in check or cheating? Are you getting enough water or pretending that Diet Coke counts towards your water goal? Are you underestimating your bad foods and overestimating your good one? At the end of each day, can you look back and see you gave it your best or did you compromise?

    The thing is, you might be able to fool your emotions for a time, but you can’t fool your body.

    Your body knows but one language: the truth. So speak it!

  • Vitamix Review: Our Favorite Appliance

    Vitamix. Is it everything they say it is? I'm here to tell you, it's more. This multi-purpose, powerhouse of a machine will not only help get you healthier, you'll be looking for excuses to use it. It's without its flaws, but we wouldn't trade it for 100 pounds of organic kale.
