I don’t really have issues with using salt. When I make all my own food, I generally eat 1,500-2,000 mg per day, which isn’t a lot…but I don’t care. Which is why I’ve always ignored sodium-free salt. What I do sometimes care about, however, is the fact that my diet is always well under [...] I’ve been reading chapters of Good Calories, Bad Calories again, and I was finally moved to look for Dr. Yudkin’s books on Amazon. His books Pure White and Deadly and Sweet and Dangerous cost way too much, but I did buy a copy of Eat Well, Slim Well. Normally, I love diet books [...] One of the big excuses that I see people make when it comes to eating “clean”, whether that’s paleo or an elimination or rotation diet is that they can’t afford to buy organic food or grass-fed meat. Somehow, they think that if they can’t do that, they can’t do the program. The first step to [...] The Whole9 folks are doing another Pure Paleo 30-day challenge. You’ll find an explanation of it here, and if you’re looking to cut the crap out of your diet, there’s a lot of support available. The “Tough Love” section applies to ANY dietary changes you want to make.

At the moment, I’m not eating white potatoes [...] In another post, a commenter said they were having a hard time figuring out what people following Paleo or Primal diet were actually eating on a day to day basis. They also expressed interest in what I was going to eat while backpacking, and I will get to that in a moment. Since I see [...] Salt, like many other foods, has been demonized by what we believe to be current science. It’s one of those things that “everybody knows”, so they accept that something they like is something they should eat less of. The thing is that there’s no connection between blood pressure and salt. It’s never been proven. [...] I’m currently planning a backpacking trip for early May. I’m repeating a section of the Appalachian Trail that I really liked. Once piece of that is described by the guide book as follows: This section traverses the high balds of Hump Mountain, Yellow Mountain, and the eastern portion of Roan Mountain. The Trail passes over five [...] After a discussion that came up in my blog comments, I decided to try making mayonnaise again. I find it to be very easy, but I haven’t really liked the results in the past, and the recipes always make a lot of mayonnaise. The other recipe, the salad dressing, I’ve been using a [...] |
