Paleo By Profession – Is it Possible?
This week I received an email from a current dietetic student wondering how it is ‘possible’ to be a Paleo dietitian and promote the lifestyle, even though it doesn’t exactly ‘jive’ with the USDA Food Plate and dietary guidelines. I often receive emails and inquiries like this from students, current registered dietitians, nurses, health professionals and ‘nutritionists’. … Continue Reading

By: Roman Sasik, Ph.D. Chlorella is a genus of unicellular aquatic organisms that recently acquired a “superfood” status, in part because of its complete amino acid profile and a high omega-3 DHA and EPA fatty acid content.

Hormones: Disrupted, Decadent, Depraved
During a recent conversation with my father over the movie “Tree of Life” I noted that life is really just 1,000 near death experiences. We are aware that an eventual end is coming. Whether it be by Mayan prediction, Solar Flares, Economic catastrophe, or Justin Bieber (bleak I know). Eventually, there will be an “end… Continue Reading
