Number One Cause of Fat and Diabetes

Number One Cause of Fat and Diabetes

I’ve just finished reading a remarkable article published in the New York Times last Wednesday February 27th that reviewed the details of an astounding study. This study – for the first time ever – conclusively pinpointed the #1 cause of type 2 diabetes and by extension, excess, stubborn weight. They did, however, miss one incredibly important detail, which I’ll explain in a moment but here’s what they did get right. The study showed that the link between this #1 cause of type 2 diabetes and by extension, extra, stubborn flab, was just as strong as the link between cigarettes and lung cancer.

EASY Nutrition for Health & Weight Management

Colour Your Plate and Get Healthy! I’ve always loved chopping up fresh fruit and vegetables and creating different blends of slop in my blender! Over the weekend I decided to experiment with Kale. Here’s a pic of chopped Kale in my blender.. KALE is very high in beta carotene, vitamin K, vitamin C, lutein, zeaxanthin, and reasonably rich in calcium. A member of the cabbage and broccoli family, it contains sulforaphane (particularly when chopped or minced) – a chemical with potent anti-cancer properties. Blending is a quick and easy, nutritious way to incorporate a variety of nutrients, vitamins and minerals

How to Let Go to be Happy, Healthy and Free

How to Let Go to be Happy, Healthy and Free

Are you afraid of change? Sometimes we hold on to unhealthy habits, memories or relationships for fear of loneliness, resentment and uncertainty.

Our happiness, health and feelings are severely compromised when we remain closed and negative to life’s possibilities. mjedwards.ca/dev/me/ In these moments of internal pain, we never ask ourselves these two important questions: Is what I’m holding onto what I really, truly want? Ideally what would I rather take hold of to feel happy, healthy and free? For many years I held onto words: hurtful, horrible, hateful words that people had said to me

My Hungry Heart – emotional eating

My Hungry Heart - emotional eating

 What are you really hungry for? When I was overweight – no matter how much food I ate – the sensation of hunger was never far away. Every meal was hurried. I ate as if I was ravenous; quickly filling my belly to hide the evidence that I was a ‘pig’. I would spend most of my time during the day thinking about food while trying to avoid it.  The hunger made me crave all the wrong foods… and they always somehow made me feel better. I didn’t always feel ‘well’ after eating those foods, but for a short time I didn’t feel

Losing Weight for Health

Lose Weight – Your health depends on it. If you are facing health issues such as chronic inflammation, diabetes, cardio-vascular risks, auto-immune condition, hormonal imbalances, insomnia, depression, cravings, high blood pressure and arthritis – then you need to seriously attend to the extra kilo’s you are carrying around. Quite possibly you are well aware that you have a problem needing attention. Very possibly you’ve been aware for some time but have resisted admitting that fact to yourself for whatever reason.
