Posted by on Mar 12, 2011 in Health | Comments Off on Ice Cream made from Breast Milk

There is an ice cream shop in London that is selling a new flavor: Baby Gaga, which is ice cream made from human breast milk. We all know how healthy and beneficial breast milk is, but there are several things people should consider before they eat this “healthy” ice cream. First of all, is this breast milk ice cream pasteurized? Just like cow’s milk, once it is pasteurized, the healthy benefits have been boiled out. Second, what else is in this ice cream?

It’s sad to know that there is even such a place as Heart Attack Grill. It’s a fast food restaurant that emphasizes how bad their food is for your health, and rewards you if you are extremely overweight. Watch the video below. It’s about a six minute clip from Extreme Pigouts, which shows you just how unhealthy this restaurant really is. Rock Bottom: Inspiration for Heart Attack Grill Jon (the owner of Heart Attack Grill) used to own three Jenny Craig® Weight Loss Centers. He thought that they would be a good business and that he could help people. He went through a three month training program where he learned about sales and nutrition.

Posted by on Mar 3, 2011 in Nutrition, Weight Loss | Comments Off on “Low Calorie” doesn’t mean “Healthy”

Everyone seems to be obsessed with the term “low calorie”. Companies market their product as a “low calorie” meal or snack, which as a result, leads consumers to believe they are buying a healthy product. Unfortunately for us, “low calorie” doesn’t mean that it is “healthy”! This concept is a huge misunderstanding that I would like to clear up for everyone. When Low Calorie doesn’t mean Healthy I went searching for what consumers thought was a great low calorie snack for weight loss. Here are some of the most common low calorie snacks consumers suggested to others, and my suggestions of healthy alternatives. •JELL-O Brand Gelatin and Pudding Snacks- The low calorie snack packs make this product easy to consume on a daily basis, which is concerning once you read the label and see what ingredients are listed in...
