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!

POPSWhat's really in foods labeled "healthy"? Rule of thumb: if it has an advertising campaign, be intelligently skeptical about it. For example, plain old yogurt is good for you. Sweetened, thickened, colored, flavored "Go-gurt" in a tube... not so much.

POPSWhat IS a Nutritarian? A nutritarian is a person whose food choices are influenced by nutritional quality. The Fuhrman Philosophy: The quality of a diet can be based on three simple criteria: 1) Levels of micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals) per calorie. 2) Amounts of macronutrients (fat, carbohydrate, protein) to meet individual needs, without excessive calories that may lead to weight gain or health compromise. 3) Avoidance of potentially toxic substances (such as trans fats) and limited amounts of other potentially harmful substances (such as sodium). Dr. Fuhrman is the founder of the health equation. H = N/C Health = Nutrients/Calories The means your future health can be predicted by the micronutrient per calorie density of your diet. Micro-nutrient per calorie density is important in devising and recommending menu plans and dietary suggestions for the most effective approach for both weight loss and for preventing and reversing disease.

POPSIs High-Fructose Corn Syrup Really Good for You? This article talks about those ads by the Corn Refiners Association (CRA) that are trying to convince us that high-fructose corn syrup is really good for you. Maybe it isn't the new trans-fat, but as this scientist says, "High-fructose corn syrup just doesn't exist in nature." I have recently heard that scientists have begun to think that all artificial sweeteners cause an unnatural craving for more sweets. I don't care what they say - if it doesn't occur in nature, I don't think you should eat it.

POPScoconutoil.com: learn the truth about coconut oil The more reading and research I do, the more it seems that we've been sold a bundle of lies about food. How many things that we were told were horrible seem to actually be fine? Butter, eggs, saturated fats, etc. And the things that were supposed to be healthy are really not. Vegetable shortening/margarine/other hydrogenated fats, canola oil, fat-free/sugar-free stuff, non-fat dairy products... I find myself leaning more and more towards Michael Pollan's advice: If your grandmother* wouldn't recognize it, you shouldn't eat it. *Your grandmother, or somebody else's – I don't think either of my grandmothers would have recognized fish sauce, chana dal, or pickled ginger, but if she'd been Thai, Indian, or Japanese, they would have.
