POPSHoliday Hazards to your Pets
Christmas Trees - These create a whole realm of dangers for your pet. Poorly secured trees can fall on rambunctious pets as the run around or try to climb them. Pine needles can cause GI irritation and perforation. Sharp or breakable ornaments should be kept well out of the way of curious mouths and paws. Christmas trees may contain additives and preservatives, which leech into the water and can be toxic if ingested. Tinsel, yarn and ribbon can cause linear foreign bodies (get wrapped up throughout the intestinal tract) and create a blockage and/or possible perforations. Sweets - Holiday candy can cause GI problems and become toxic once ingested. Chocolate is one of the most common causes of toxic reaction in pets. The darker the chocolate the worse it is. Do not place wrapped boxes of chocolate under the tree- dogs can sniff them out. Also be sure to keep the candy dishes covered so playful paws aren't tempted to fish them out. The holidays make it easier for pets to sneak their

POPSRunning Doc: What to eat and drink pre- and post-workout French fries and chocolate milk, anyone? :lol: More: Post workout, a recovery drink that has carbs as well as added protein is best (in a 3:1 or 4:1 ratio of carbohydrate:protein) so as to have amino acids available for repair. If you do not have a “recovery drink” be sure to eat protein in your next meal. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, pretzels, tomato juice, and chocolate milk are all good food alternatives to the scientific drinks. Many runners I know love French fries and chocolate milk after a marathon—it works great and you deserve the treat!

POPSFlax Seeds and Oils Healthly Fats I am being very cautious with what goes down my system at the moment. So I've decided to revert to my old healthy diets. I did not realize there could be any issue with flax seed oil, but I've also used the flax seeds raw before so if there is less risk and more raw nutrients, naturally this makes sense, then perhaps I stick to grinding them myself.

POPSCorporate Dirty Work (or Big Fat Lies Exposed) Peta kills animals. Mercury in fish is not a problem. Increasing wages of the lowest paid will harm America. Trans fats and sugars are good for you. Junk food is good for you. Climate change not a problem. The Washington Tea Baggers protest grew out of a grass roots movement: American corporate spin, aided and abetted by Rick Berman and exposed by Maddow. Brilliant!

POPSStudy Finds Cheeseburgers More Nutritious Than Baby Food This is not a plug for eating more meat. Eating meat already causes way too many environmental and human health problems. No, this is wakeup call to those of you who are paying exorbitant prices for unhealthy processed junk food disguised as ‘healthy’ baby food. You can very easily make it yourself at home. You would be taking a huge positive step for your baby’s health and your bank account. Plus you would have peace of mind concerning what you are actually feeding your child. Heinz wasn’t the only company that came under scrutiny. Several other companies, such as Baby Balance, were found to make products high in saturated fats and sugars worse than junk food. There’s a link in the clip that gives a good argument for ‘baby-led solids’ a simple, practical, logical and natural method of beginning solid foods whereby your baby simply eats real food, by himself/herself, from the beginning.

By Melissa Breyer, Senior Editor, Healthy & Green Living Looking for a way to lower blood pressure, cholesterol, blood glucose, and risks for life-threatening chronic diseases? People with many health conditions, including diabetes, need to closely monitor their blood pressure, cholesterol and blood glucose. With this in mind, the American Diabetes Association released its list of diabetes superfoods earlier this week. The list offers 10 foods that have nutrients necessary for good diabetes management, including fiber, potassium, healthy fats, magnesium and antioxidants. The nutrients included in these foods can promote good health and help prevent some of diabetes serious complications, such as heart attacks and strokes. The beauty of this list of superfoods is that all of the items have a low glycemic index (GI) and provide key nutrients–such as calcium, potassium, fiber, magnesium, and vitamins A, C and E–these nutrients are often lacking in a typical Western diet.
