Top Five Health, Diet, and Lifestyle Stories for 2013 ...

Here they are with a brief explanation: 
  • Chick-fil-A to remove food dyes and high fructose corn syrup from food
          Here's the question I ask: Since we've been eating this type of food for over 50-years, why is it             being taken out of our food supply now? Food dyes, sugar, and chemicals are in far-too-many             "foods". My advice: Stop eating fast food and limit processed food. In other words, eat real food.
  • FDA to Ban Trans Fats
          Partially hydrogenated oil (aka trans fat) has been in our food supply for about 40-years. We've           known for many years that it is an artery-clogger killer. All of a sudden it's being taken out of our           food supply. It should never have been in it to begin with. Check out my site,                                         PartiallyHydrogenated.com for more information. My advice: Look at all ingredients of baked                 and packaged food. If you see the words partially hydrogenated, put it back on the shelf. It's in             seemingly "harmless" items like Nilla Wafers, Ritz Crackers, and much more.
  • Statin Recommendations
          Be assured, many medical and pharmaceutical recommendations are changing. Statins, a                 widely prescribed medication, is being prescribed far too often. My advice: Become an                         educated medical care consumer and of course, consult with your doctor. I also recommend               reading, Lies, Damn Lies, and Medical Science. And, I recommend viewing this video from one           of my health-heroes: Dr. Nortin Hadler.
  • Blood Pressure Recommendations
          This just in: While 120/80 is a target to shoot for, meds are not required until the numbers are             much higher. My advice: Read the new recommendations.
  • PSA Recommendations
         Highly controversial, but seemingly accurate ... most men die with Prostate Cancer, not                      because of it and frequently, the side effects of treatment are much worse than than living with            contained cancer. My advice: Well, when my doc wanted me to see a Urologist because of an            elevated PSA, I declined. It is known not to be a valid test. Again, do the research and be sure to          discuss with your primary care physician.
