Just one tip I found that works is that eat lunch first; that way, the sugar doesn't hit your bloodstream first thing. If there is something in there first, it can be metabolized better. But how can one wait until lunch with a bowl of kisses looking at them? Sigh.<br /><br />Gelt: 'Shrooms are a soviet thing? Who knew? It sounds so delish! <br /><br />MGI: Only dark chocolate, MGI, only dark chocolate. No benefits in milk chocolate whatsoever.<br /><br />Ha ha, I also came to that conclusion without Dr. F. After all, I was doing it already, wasn't I? But his idea of changing the food pyramid by prioritizing veggies over grains was certainly an idea I pounced on with alacrity.

Chocolate has a significant protective effect against heart disease as well as some properties as an aphrodisiac.<br />I love people who watch Dr Oz and try to learn things from him. Those people give me some of my best business.<br /><br />Bottom line: the more unprocessed, uncooked fruits, vegetable and bran in your diet and the less fat and processed sugar, the better. Also watch portion size and exercise regularly.<br />So simple no one would put me on TV to say it.Mighty Garnel Ironhearthttp://garnelironheart.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6017927177231080668.post-50205076234269872772013-02-14T15:47:55.835-05:002013-02-14T15:47:55.835-05:00mushrooms: my husband is of former soviet union ex...mushrooms: my husband is of former soviet union extract, so he is a HUGE fan of mushrooms. i slice them and put them in a baking dish, then toss with olive oil, salt, and aleppo peppers. if you want a little bite, add some balsamic vinegar [totally unnecessary]. cook down until they're a deep, dark chestnut brown. i could eat them totally plain, but they're great over polenta or on a baked sweet potato.
