1) The Engine 2 Diet (Rip Esselstyn)'s "Daily Beet's" Q & A on High Protein Diets for Athletes with Fitness Expert Lani--this is a fantastic post because it really explains why "protein-loading" athletes to "build muscle" is not only scientifically incorrect but it also is linked to the supplement industries' marketing machine. I find it absolutely fascinating that the World Health Organization recommended daily dietary intake of protein is only 5%! Yes, 5%! I love learning more about this after spending so many years thinking the key to strength is protein intake!
2) The Healthy Librarian's post on Police Chief Patrick Berarducci's Plant-Strong Diet Movement in Medina, Ohio. LOVE this post--it really made me smile. :-) A police chief with poor health basically followed Dr. Esselstyn's program & after seeing such amazing results, has been pushing the whole town to join him!
3) The Plant-Based Dietician's profile of the Everyday Happy Herbivore Cookbook--a bunch of preview recipes & an opportunity to win a free book! Check it out:-)
4) Dr. Andrew Weil's Q&A: Are Supplements Really Harmful to Women? This is a really interesting post in which Dr. Weil discusses a newly published Archives of Internal Medicine journal article which suggests the possibility of increased death rates in women taking suppplements in the Iowa Women's Health Study. I am particularly fascinated with his comments about "never taking multivitamins with iron in them" because iron is toxic when it builds up in the body.
5) Gluten-Free Girl's How to Make Gluten-Free Dough Ornaments!! Silly one I know but its that holiday time of year & I used to make these (non-gluten-free) with my Mom as a little girl!
6) Great Holiday Gift Guides from the last few weeks:
-The Engine 2 Diet Daily Beet's Ultimate Plant-Strong Holiday Gift Guide!
-The 100 Days of Real Food's Homemade Holiday Gift Ideas (beyond cookies!)
