		<title>Fever Induced Delirium? Or More Silliness From Kellogs?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My girlfriend and I were both stricken by the darn flu virus this week. Not surprising then, that we spent a good chunk of time huddled feverishly in blankets, sipping NeoCitran and watching T.V.
At one point during a commercial break, I became alarmed and had to scrabbled feverishly for my thermometer. What I  had just [...]]]></description>

		<title>Study: Obesity Increases Risk of H1N1 Complications</title>
		<description><![CDATA[According to the NYT, hospitalization rates are increased for obese/morbidly obese people with swine flu infections.
Obesity appears to be a risk factor on a par with pregnancy for developing complications from an infection with pandemic H1N1 influenza, according to the most comprehensive look yet at swine flu hospitalizations.
About a quarter of those hospitalizations have been [...]]]></description>

		<title>Veggies: Raw vs. Cooked</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This article from Scientific American is from March, but it&#8217;s still quite timely&#8230; It provides a common sense answer to a recurring question: whether it&#8217;s best to eat vegetables cooked or raw.
The whole article is worth a read, although I&#8217;ll give you the conclusion up front:
Comparing the healthfulness of raw and cooked food is complicated, and there [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beating Type 2 Diabetes Through Diet &amp; Exercise</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Click here to read a pretty inspirational article in the LA Times.  It profiles 5 different people (including actor Larry Hagman) who were able to eliminate their need for insulin&#8230; and other medications as well.  Needless to state, there were no magic supps involved&#8230; just lifestyle changes.  Very significant lifestyle changes, too.
It&#8217;s safe to say that some of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Alpha Male Challenge &#8211; Week 6</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This was a continuation of the &#8220;Strength Max&#8221; wave of the the program.  The changes this week involved a) doing 4 reps /set (vs. 6) at a 3-0-1-0 tempo; and b) performing a different superset for each workout.  The supersets were tough to do, as each one was placed towards the end of each workout, when we were [...]]]></description>

		<title>Double Facepalm</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As the chief-cook-and-bottlewasher at UltimateFatBurner.com, Paul gets all the e-mail and feedback.  Most of it&#8217;s pretty routine stuff&#8230; although once-in-a-while, he&#8217;ll get some real doozies.  He typically forwards these to me, so we can share a laugh&#8230; although there are some messages that inspire this reaction, too&#8230;

He forwarded one of these to me last night &#8211; it was a message from an [...]]]></description>

		<title>When You Lie Down With Dogs&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;You get up with fleas.  It&#8217;s an old, old saying, but there&#8217;s truth to it.
Earlier today, I was exchanging e-mails with a friend, Will Brink.  He drew my attention to a recent study published in JANA &#8211; the Journal of the American Nutraceutical Association.  While scanning the list of papers, I came across one that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Physicians Have Less Respect for Overweight Patients</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This Johns Hopkins study confirms some anecdotes I&#8217;ve heard/read.
October 22, 2009-Doctors have less respect for their obese patients than they do for patients of normal weight, a new study by Johns Hopkins researchers suggests. The findings raise questions about whether negative physician attitudes about obesity could be affecting the long-term health of their heavier patients.

		<title>Alpha Male Challenge &#8211; Week 5</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This was the first week of the &#8220;Strength Max&#8221; portion of the program.  It felt good to be doing heavier loads again.
This week&#8217;s innovation was the addition of &#8220;Punisher&#8221; sets.  These are 100 rep exercises!  You start with a load you can do a max of 30 &#8211; 40 reps with, then squeeze out 100.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dumb Choices II</title>
		<description><![CDATA[According to Reuters, the &#8220;Smart Choices&#8221; labeling program has  &#8220;voluntarily&#8221; postponed &#8220;active operations&#8221; - pending an investigation by the FDA.  Some companies, like Kraft, intend to continue using the system on existing products, but will not expand its use. Kellogg, however, intends to phase it out completely.
It&#8217;s funny what a little public scrutiny can accomplish, isn&#8217;t it?
