<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yes, today is the second day of <strong><em>my</em></strong> new year.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s right yesterday was my birthday. 8/22/10.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t ask how old I am, at a certain age my grandmother<br />
always said that &#8220;a lady never tells her age&#8221;.</p>
<p>I agree.<br />
Besides, once I answer that question with a number, people<br />
feel compelled, especially one&#8217;s older than me, to tell me<br />
what a &#8216;baby&#8217; I am.  And these are people who are NOT old enough<br />
to be my mother or father, so how am I a baby?</p>
<p>O.K. Let&#8217;s say I am a baby&#8230; I guess they&#8217;re stating that they&#8217;re too old.<br />
Speaking of that, you also get the&#8230;&#8221;Oh, wait!  This is the age you<br />
start feeling everything bad.&#8221;  Or they reminesce about the days when they<br />
were &#8220;my age&#8221;&#8230;which is usually only 5-7 years ago.</p>
<p>What is this claim to be &#8220;older&#8221; and I guess &#8220;wiser&#8221; than your friends?<br />
So, I say to all of you,<br />
&#8220;Thank you for my birthday wishes&#8230; <br />
Let&#8217;s celebrate life and how we still have our memories to enjoy.&#8221;</p>
<p>If you want to figure out my age&#8230;great, knock yourself out.  I have better things to do.<br />
But I won&#8217;t discuss &#8220;the number&#8221;, but I will discuss the day!  I love cheese cake for<br />
my birthday.  And that just what I had.</p>
<p>I shared my birthday with &#8220;my baby&#8221;, 22 years old and leaving for college today.<br />
My food bill will decrease substantially. <br />
(and so will my light bill and my water bill too&#8230;you know what I&#8217;m saying)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday I promised to post photos of my warm bacon &amp; egg salad.  Here they are:</p>
<div id="attachment_875" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/021.JPG"><img class="size-medium wp-image-875 " title="021" src="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/021-300x225.jpg" alt="This salad was so yummy!  I had it more my first meal.  That's my bag of freshly ground flax seed too." width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">This salad was so yummy! I had it for my first meal. That&#39;s my bag of freshly ground flax seed too.</p></div>
<p>Here&#8217;s the recipe:<br />
For serving 4:<br />
2 romaine hearts, coarsely torn<br />
4 eggs (hard boiled)<br />
2 tbsp of sunflower oil (I used canola becuase I didn&#8217;t have sunflower oil)<br />
2 thick slices of bread (I used sourdough) crusts removed, and bread cubed<br />
1 &amp;1/3  cupd of crumbled smoked bacon (I used no nitrite bacon)<br />
12 cherry tomatoes (I used grape tomatoes), halved<br />
Dressing:<br />
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil<br />
1 tbsp of red wine vinegar<br />
1 tsp dijon mustard<br />
pepper<br />
Easy Directions &amp; Prep:  Whisk dressing ingredients.  Wash and dry romaine leaves.  Cook eggs and cut into quarters.  Heat sunfloweroil in large skillet, place bread in pan and brown on each side (turn frequently).  Remove and set aside.  Cook bacon and drain, crumble up into large pieces.<br />
(For warm salad add tomatoes and dressing to the skillet for another minute. I didn&#8217;t do this step.)  Gently toss bacon, tomatoes and dressing into the coarsely torn romaine lettuce.  Add the quartered eggs sprinkle the bread (as croutons).  Serve immediately.  Here&#8217;s a closer look:</p>
<div id="attachment_876" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/020.JPG"><img class="size-medium wp-image-876" title="020" src="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/020-300x225.jpg" alt="Those large brown pieces are freshly made croutons, not the bacon." width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Those large brown pieces are freshly made croutons, not the bacon.</p></div>
<p>I got this recipe from a book I purchased at ALDI for only $4.99!  Great pictures, very colorful.  I&#8217;m getting ready to make a smoked salmon and arugula salad.  Also from this new book that I love!  The book is simply called &#8220;Salads&#8221; (It&#8217;s big).</p>
<p>That was some good news, unfortunately, here&#8217;s some unfortunate news.  I found this on a vegetable/fruit box that used when I ran out of bags while at ALDI:</p>
<div id="attachment_877" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/022.JPG"><img class="size-medium wp-image-877 " title="022" src="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/022-300x225.jpg" alt="This reads &quot;treated with Ophenylphenol or sorbic acid to inhibit mold growth and coated with paraffin and mineral oil and or carnuba wax.  Isn't that is what's in Turtle Wax for your car?  Always SCRUB your fruits and vegetables!" width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">This reads &quot;treated with O-phenylphenol or sorbic acid to inhibit mold growth and coated with paraffin and mineral oil and or carnuba wax.&quot; Isn&#39;t that what&#39;s in Turtle Wax for your car? Always SCRUB your fruits and vegetables!</p></div>
<p>Some of you may say you can buy organic.  Not always an option if you have a family of 5 and want a red pepper dish at $4.99 a pepper.  I got this whole beautiful book for the price of an organic red pepper!  Buy organic when you can, if you can&#8217;t or don&#8217;t want to buy organic, start scrubbing and hope for the best.  Even some of the &#8216;organic&#8217; pesticides are now being put into question about their safety.  So unless you want to live in your own biosphere and grow fruits and vegetables all day, you&#8217;ll have to eat some pesticides.  I know it&#8217;s a shame.  Fruits and vegetables have become more dangerous to eat than meat.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s more great news.  At my heaviest I wore these jeans (at 165lbs.)  Now look at yesterday&#8217;s 2-pack ab photos:</p>
<div id="attachment_878" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/028.JPG"><img class="size-medium wp-image-878" title="028" src="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/028-300x225.jpg" alt="It took a few shots to get the right one.  I think my honey just liked snapping photos of my abs that I'm finding again!" width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">It took a few shots to get the right one. I think my honey just liked snapping photos of my abs that I&#39;m finding again!</p></div>
<div id="attachment_879" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/029.JPG"><img class="size-medium wp-image-879" title="029" src="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/029-300x225.jpg" alt="This one is a little better.  He HAD to take another one..." width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">This one is a little better. He HAD to take another one...</p></div>
<div id="attachment_880" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/030.JPG"><img class="size-medium wp-image-880" title="030" src="http://theminkyway.com/Test/wp/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/030-300x225.jpg" alt="The last one, for now.  " width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">The last one, for now. </p></div>
<p>I will continue using my Minky Way principles.  I feel great about shifting my heavy meals, at every meal I ask myself:</p>
<ol>
<li>Where&#8217;s the protein?</li>
<li>Where&#8217;s the live food?</li>
<li>Where&#8217;s the omega 3&#8217;s?</li>
</ol>
<p>I got this concept from a book I love called the Gabriel Method. <br />
You can read more about Jon Gabriel&#8217;s incredible transformation <a href="http://www.gabrielmethod.com/partners/loriminkyradcliffe/" target="_blank"><strong>HERE</strong></a>.<br />
I also strategically timed my meals to be at the best &#8216;fat-burning&#8217; stage and I exercise<br />
only 2 days a week.  (NEVER on Mondays).</p>
<p>Just a reminder that The Minky Way Virtual Coaching will begin in June.  More information at <a href="http://www.theminkyway.com" target="_blank">www.theminkyway.com</a><br />
I utilize 2 books in this coaching.  The ones that worked best for me. <br />
First, Richard Morris&#8217;, &#8220;A Life Unburdened&#8221;.  Second, Jon Gabriel&#8217;s, &#8220;The Gabriel Method&#8221;.</p>
<p>Please mark your calendar for Sunday, May 30, 2010 for my &#8220;Meet the TRX&#8221;.  I will have TRX demonstrations and you can taste my yummy and nutritious whey protein shakes made with Montel&#8217;s Healthmaster machine. <br />
(banana/walnut and spinach/orange/banana both are sweet without adding sugar)<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here we go again.  Fats in the headlines.  I love it.   Go <a href="http://content.yudu.com/Library/A1nlz7/May2010MONA/resources/index.htm" target="_blank">HERE</a> to read &#8216;Natural Awakenings&#8217; magazine article,<br />
&#8220;In Minky&#8217;s Kitchen&#8230;FAT rules&#8221;, page 17.  Dr. Christina Northop is on the cover.  Also there is a very good article<br />
on Dr. Udo Erasmus and his research on oils, page 16.  Finally, there is a grand article on JoAnn Morgillo, her journey<br />
with a breast cancer battle and using massage to heal and help with lymphedema (swelling of the tissues), page 22.</p>
<p><strong>A new study says &#8220;High fat breakfast burn more fat&#8221;.<br />
</strong>In a study to observe the development of metabolic syndrome and two distinct diets in mice, researchers found</p>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><span style="font-family: Tahoma;">in the two separate groups of:</span></span></div>
<ul>
<li>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><span style="font-family: Tahoma;">The High-Carb Breakfast Group ate a higher-carb breakfast and a lower-carb, higher-fat dinner </span></span></div>
</li>
<li>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><span style="font-family: Tahoma;">The High-Fat Breakfast Group ate a higher-fat breakfast and a lower-fat, higher-carb dinner</span></span></div>
</li>
</ul>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><span style="font-family: Tahoma;">Importantly, the daily diets of the two groups contained<em> the same number of calories and calories from fat</em>.</span></span></div>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Tahoma;"> </span></div>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><span style="font-family: Tahoma;">At the end of the study, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">the High-Fat Breakfast Group had normal metabolic profiles</span>.</span></span></div>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Tahoma;"> </span></div>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><span style="font-family: Tahoma;">In contrast, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">the High-Carb Breakfast Group showed signs of metabolic syndrome</span>, including weight gain, increased abdominal fat, glucose intolerance and more.</span></span></div>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Tahoma;"> </span></div>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><span style="font-family: Tahoma;">These differences were attributed to the fact that, compared with the High-Carb Breakfast Group, the mice in the High-Fat Breakfast Group were less likely to store dietary fat as unhealthful abdominal fat, which generates chemical signals that promote several other aspects of metabolic syndrome.</span></span></div>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Tahoma;"> </span></div>
<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"><span style="font-family: Tahoma;"> “<span style="text-decoration: underline;">The first meal you have appears to program your metabolism for the rest of the day</span>,” said study senior author Martin Young, Ph.D. (UAB 2010)<br />
You can read the whole study <a href="http://newsletter.vitalchoice.com/e_article001743191.cfm?x=bgRyT2g,b9GjJtmS" target="_blank">HERE:</a><br />
You don&#8217;t have to think like mice.  This &#8217;study&#8217; resembles Minky&#8217;s Fried Chicken Diet.  You can try it for 3 days, if you sign up for Minky&#8217;s group phone coaching visit <a href="http://www.theminkyway.com" target="_blank">www.theminkyway.com</a> for more information.</span></span></div>
<p><strong><em>Strengthen &amp; Stretch classes<br />
</em></strong>You know, muscles don&#8217;t lengthen, they only tighten when you use them <em><strong>and</strong></em> when you don&#8217;t use them.  You have to actively &#8217;stretch&#8217; them.  Can you still raise your arms all the way over your head?<br />
If you are trying to reduce your waist, you can&#8217;t exercise your abdominal muscles effectively with very tight hip flexors.  If you sit all day or commute, chances are you have tight hip flexors and a protruding belly.  Here are photos of where my new Strengthen &amp; Stretch will be at Informed Touch Massage &amp; Wellness in Deal, NJ:</p>

<p>I also discovered that I had the wrong sized ball all along.  So I got a bigger ball (if you can stand it). <br />
Using the bigger ball is for &#8216;ringers&#8217; only&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I got a lot of e-mails over the weekend sharing good information on exercises and food tips to decrease your &#8216;muffin-top&#8217;.</p>
<p>Here they are but remember, I never exercise on Monday.  Since I don&#8217;t consider walking an exercise modality, if you want to go some a casual walk or stretch on Monday that&#8217;s fine.  But nothing stressful.  Here are the 6 tips:</p>
<p>#1 &#8211; The best interval training work-to-rest ratio for losing belly<br />
fat might be 1-to-1.5.</p>
<p>In an Australian study, researchers found that doing intervals for<br />
8 seconds followed by 12 seconds of rest resulted in significantly<br />
more belly fat burning than long slow cardio.</p>
<p>Now I know that 8 seconds on and 12 seconds off sounds a little<br />
annoying (just try doing that on a machine), but the good news is<br />
that these researchers found that going for 24 seconds followed by a<br />
36 second rest works just as well for boosting fat burning hormones.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.exercisecasualty.com" target="_blank">Exercise Casualty campers</a> get ready to reduce your recovery time on &#8216;Manny&#8217; the manual treadmill.</p>
<p>#2 - This is really nothing new.  But it&#8217;s worth repeating.  In <a href="http://minkysfriedchickendiet.com" target="_blank">Minky&#8217;s Fried Chicken Diet</a>, the sample meal plan includes carbohydrates that have higher protein content; but does encourage and recommend you <strong>get MOST of your carbohydrate from fruits and vegetables</strong>.  After eating satisfying deep fried chicken, vegetables are welcomed by you.</p>
<p>#3 &#8211; You need to be able to do a Plank exercise for 2 minutes.  Exercise casualty campers know that planks on the TRX are very challenging and effective.  You can see photos <a href="http://www.exercisecasualty.com" target="_blank">CLICK HERE</a>.</p>
<p>If you can&#8217;t do the plank for 2 minutes, then you need to lose belly<br />
fat and you need to get a program that works your abs properly.</p>
<p>#4 &#8211; New research shows that supersets training burns more calories<br />
than traditional straight set resistance training.  Super set training is going immediately from one exercise to another exercise but still working the same muscle group.  Not only do we do this at the Exercise Casualty Camp; we will also do this type of training in my <a href="http://www.informedtouch.wordpress.com" target="_blank">NEW Strengthen and stretch class starting in May, in Deal, NJ</a></p>
<p>#5 &#8211; Stop snacking all day long.  Move first thing in the am, BEFORE you drink your coffee.  Doing <a href="http://www.exercisecasualty.com" target="_blank">&#8217;stick squats&#8217;</a> are a great why to utilize your fat-burning mode in the morning.  Then eat your full breakfast  before 10am, at the latest!  I will talk more about this tonite on the<br />
<strong>HOT Minky Show,<br />
Every Monday evening 4/12,<br />
9-9:30pm EST, (760) 569-9000 call in and listen number and<br />
access code 623104#</strong></p>
<p>Of course, the more muscle you have, the easier it will be too see<br />
your abs, but what&#8217;s even more important is maintaining your independence as you age.<br />
Best carbs to eat when trying to lose belly fat and how eating fat helps to stabilize your blood sugars<br />
will be discussed tonite on the HOT Minky Show.  Participation is optional.</p>
<p>#6 &#8211; Stretch every chance you can get.  Muscle only tighten, they don&#8217;t &#8216;lengthen&#8217; when you exercise.  Much of your pain is due to very tight muscles, especially in your midsection.  This tightness causes wasted abdominal exercising efforts.  Learn an awesome hip flexor stretch in my NEW Strengthen &amp; Stretch class in Deal, NJ, beginning in May.  More information <a href="http://www.minkysfriedchickendiet.com" target="_blank">CLICK HERE</a>.  Then click on &#8216;Strengthen &amp; Stretch&#8217;.</p>
<p>Keep It Real&#8230;Food,<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow! <br />
I cant believe it&#8217;s been this long since my last entry!<br />
I received this e-mail discussing Alan Watson&#8217;s book, &#8220;Cereal Killer&#8221;.  This short 3 minute interview explains a lot of his position, like mine, with the past 30, maybe even 50 years, of the promotion of excess carbohydrates in the diet that&#8217;s causing type 2 diabetes, obesity and heart disease&#8230;NOT saturated fats.  He also feels Michele Obama is &#8216;off target&#8217; with the low-fat cheese and vegetable oil spreads for kids.  Also I urge you to listen to his related videos, while on You Tube.  You can listen here:<br />
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y58_o7O6rGA" target="_blank"><strong>Cereal Killer video on You Tube.  Click Here.</strong></a></p>

<p>Not only will you enjoy Minky&#8217;s deep fried chicken, you will discover the 6 exercises you must do to <strong><em>stay out of the nursing home</em></strong> and you laugh during the presentation.</p>
<p>Here are the things that I want to do; but I am told that they are bad for me:</p>
<ol>
<li>Never say, &#8220;I eat healthy&#8221; and I suspect you if you tell me that you eat healthy (no one is healthy)</li>
<li>Sit &amp; lie in the sun between the hours of 11am and 1pm</li>
<li>Eat eggs, liver, butter and lard and cook with sea salt</li>
<li>Eat deep fried chicken (without rancid vegetable oils and trans fats)</li>
<li>Don&#8217;t exercise on Mondays</li>
<li>Exercise short; but hard (no &#8216;cardio&#8217; or gimmick fitness)</li>
<li>Move before I eat: not eat before I move</li>
<li>Ignore the food pyramid (diabetes starter kit)</li>
<li>Avoid soy, low-fat and fake sugar foods</li>
<li>Only eat 3 meals a day and one alcoholic drink daily (usually)</li>
<li>Never diet; I &#8216;EDIT&#8217; (add my favorite fiber to my pizza)</li>
<li>Think for myself.  I ignore nutrient claims (orthorexia) and think nutrition for survival (it&#8217;s a jungle out there)</li>
</ol>
<p>I speak on 2-4 numbers over 4 shows.  I hope to see you there!  It&#8217;ll be fun!<br />
Keep It Real&#8230;Food,<br />
Minky</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How?  You ask.</p>
<p>Well, deep fried chicken is like pre-marital sex because as with pre-marital sex, you should abstain.  Abstinence is the best.  But if you must indulge&#8230; protect yourself!<br />
As with deep fried chicken, you should practice abstinence too.  But if you must indulge&#8230; protect yourself!</p>
<p>I hope you know how to protect yourself sexually. <br />
You may not know how to protect yourself when you indulge in deep fried chicken though.<br />
Without a doubt, the best way to protect yourself when you eat deep fried chicken is to cook it in a stable, saturated fat.  Full fat, not hydrogenated, a very safe and virgin fat called  BEEF TALLOW, from grass-fed and grass-finished cows.  I just got my shipment last Friday.<br />
What&#8217;s beef tallow?  It&#8217;s the fat of a ruminant animal.  (A cow, goat, sheep or lamb)</p>
<p>I am not going to argue meat vs. non meat; but I will argue saturated fat vs. vegetable oils.  How many &#8216;experts&#8217; in the past 40-50 years told you to that saturated fats were bad for you?  They told you that saturated fat and trans fats were the same.  So you cut them out, right?  You switched to Crisco, soy, corn, canola oils.  Even olive oils.  But you still had to have your fried chicken.  You are not only fatter, your sicker. <br />
Lessons learned:</p>
<ol>
<li>You can&#8217;t live without fats (FAT-FREE, like stress-free is not reality.  There is a trade-off)</li>
<li>When you ate fats, in an attempt to &#8216;eat healthier fried foods&#8217;, you ate the rancid fats that made free radicals when heated and have deadly trans fats.  You&#8217;re sicker and never satisfied.</li>
<li>Go back to what your grandmother and/or great grandmother did.  Ate real fats.</li>
</ol>
<p>If you want to learn more about <a href="http://www.ihavealittlesugar.com" target="_blank">Minky&#8217;s Fried Chicken Diet</a> and watch an interview with Eric Schlosser, producer of Food, Inc. and Katie Couric go <a href="http://www.ihavealittlesugar.com" target="_blank"><strong>HERE</strong></a>.  They talk with former FDA Commissioner about minority children and obesity and how it&#8217;s about the food; not about the weight.</p>

Topic, &#8220;Why can&#8217;t they say &#8216;processed fats&#8217; instead of just &#8216;fats&#8217; that have been known to increase your risk of heart disease and diabetes&#8221; when there is an advertisement for a &#8220;healthy&#8221; eating program in print advertisements?  It&#8217;s very hard to believe that so many people, doctors, teachers, dietitians, mothers, even news people have &#8220;drinken the kool-aid&#8221;.  Doesn&#8217;t the past generation of getting fatter and sicker (can&#8217;t blame saturated fats) tell you that you&#8217;re doing something wrong?  What&#8217;s that definition of crazy again?  Something like doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome.</strong></p>

I just got my new Blackberry.  Watch out!  I&#8217;m into the 21st century! Texting and checking e-mail on my phone!  I can&#8217;t stand myself!  I&#8217;m just like President Obama!</p>
<p>On the Monday night HOT Minky Show, 2/22/10,  I will read off the 7-day sample meal plan from Minky&#8217;s Fried Chicken diet.<br />
You MUST order the beef tallow to cook the chicken in before you start.  Please don&#8217;t think you can &#8217;subsitute&#8217; the beef tallow for vegetable oil and do the diet!  <br />
NO, NO, NO!  Don&#8217;t tell me the diet doesn&#8217;t work if you are cooking the chicken in vegetable oils! <br />
You can get the beef tallow and a hard copy of the 7-day sample meal plan sent to you if you fill out the form at:<br />
<a href="http://www.IHaveaLittleSugar.com" target="_blank">www.IHaveaLittleSugar.com</a></p>
<p>I have updated new photos on the food that I utilize on this diet at<br />
<a href="http://www.IHaveaLittleSugar.com" target="_blank">www.IHaveaLittleSugar.com</a></p>
<p>The recording of last week&#8217;s saturated fat talk on the HOT Minky show is under Hot Minky Show recordings.</p>
<p>On Feb. 22, I will talk specifically about strearic, lauric, and capric saturated fatty acids and which food they are in and what they do.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Below is the actual email I received from Weston A Price Foundation, which I am a member and former Chapter Leader.  It is long.  It is about how Whole Foods is promoting a unhealthy vegetarian agenda.  Scroll down to read the entire e-mail. <br />
Right now I want to mention my (Minky&#8217;s) <strong><em>&#8220;I Have a Little Sugar&#8221;</em></strong> (<strong>no more) blueprint</strong> and my new <strong><em>&#8220;Exercise Casualty&#8221; </em>bootcamp</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>&#8220;I Have a Little Sugar&#8221;&#8230;</strong><br />
Is a reality blueprint <strong>only</strong> for those who understand the title.<br />
&#8220;We change <strong><em>NOT</em></strong> because what we <strong>know</strong>; we change because how we <strong>FEEL</strong>&#8221;<br />
~Oprah Winfrey</p>
<p>How do you feel?<br />
Overwhelmed, disappointed, deprived, in pain?<br />
Want to FEEL good about YOU and what you know?<br />
If you have been on Puritan diets and have been a casualty of exercise,<br />
this blueprint for change is for you!<br />
Designed by a Fitness Nurse with 27 year of fitness &amp; nursing experience.<br />
You will answer the question,<br />
&#8220;Why does my body want/need to be fat?&#8221;<br />
<strong>NOT</strong> &#8220;Why can&#8217;t I lose weight?&#8221;<br />
You having &#8216;a little sugar&#8217; is so much more than,<br />

food to what your already eating<br />

<p><strong>HERE&#8217;S THE WESTON A. PRICE E-MAIL ABOUT WHOLE FOODS:</strong></p>
<p>Dear Members,</p>
<p>The Weston A. Price Foundation has issued the following press release about the &#8220;Health Starts Here&#8221;<br />
low-fat, mostly vegetarian marketing program at Whole Foods Markets.</p>
<p>Please feel free to distribute this press release to your local media.  In addition, you can<br />
contact Whole Foods at customer.questions@wholefoods.com to share your experiences<br />
with low-fat versus traditional high-fat diets. </p>
<p>Sincerely,<br />
Sally Fallon Morell, President</p>
<p>WHOLE FOODS PROMOTES MILITANT VEGETARIAN AGENDA<br />
Has the Upscale Market Outlived Its Usefulness?</p>
<p>WASHINGTON, DC. February 3, 2010:  Whole Foods Markets has launched a nationwide<br />
&#8220;Health Starts Here&#8221; marketing scheme that endorses a low-fat, vegetarian diet, with promises<br />
that the diet will &#8220;improve health easily and naturally.&#8221; The plan promotes the books and private<br />
business ventures of Joel Fuhrman, MD, and Rip Esselstyn, both of whom worked with<br />
Whole Foods to formulate the new guidelines. Customers now receive a pamphlet urging<br />
them to adopt a low-fat, plant-based diet and to cut back or completely eliminate animal foods. <br />
Many Whole Foods stores no longer sell books advocating consumption of meat, eggs and dairy<br />
products.</p>
<p>The plan will feature new Aggregate Nutrient Density Index (ANDI) labels for foods in the store;<br />
the index is designed to make plant foods to appear &#8220;nutrient dense&#8221; by favoring various<br />
phytonutrients in plants and ignoring many vitamins and minerals essential to health.<br />
&#8220;Whole Foods has stacked the deck against animal foods by choosing ANDI parameters<br />
that do not include a host of key nutrients, such as vitamins A, D and K, DHA,<br />
EPA arachidonic acid, taurine, iodine, biotin, pantothenic acid, and vital minerals<br />
like sodium, chloride, potassium, sulfur, phosphorus, copper, manganese, boron,<br />
molybdenum and chromium,&#8221; says Sally Fallon Morell, president of the<br />
Weston A. Price Foundation. &#8220;Many of the phytochemicals that Fuhrman includes<br />
in the index he developed for Whole Foods play no essential role in the body and<br />
may even be harmful.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Animal foods like meat, liver, butter, whole milk and eggs contain ten to one hundred<br />
times more vitamins and minerals than plant foods,&#8221; says Fallon Morell. &#8220;Plant foods<br />
add variety and interest to the human diet but in most circumstances do not qualify<br />
as &#8216;nutrient-dense&#8217; foods.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;For years before becoming deathly ill, I followed the dietary suggestions in the<br />
Whole Foods plan,&#8221; said Kathryne Pirtle, author of Performance without Pain.<br />
&#8220;I ate large amounts of organic salads, vegetables and fruits, lots of whole grains,<br />
only a little meat and no animal fat. I had chronic pain for twenty-five years on this diet,<br />
then acid reflux, then a serious inflammation in my spine followed by chronic diarrhea.<br />
Without switching to nutrient-dense animal foods, including eggs, butter and whole<br />
dairy products, not only would I have lost my national career as a performing artist,<br />
I would have died at forty-five years old! I am not alone in this story of ill health from<br />
a low-fat, plant-based diet, which does not supply a person with enough nutrients to be<br />
healthy and can be very damaging to the intestinal tract.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Consumers can send a message about Whole Foods&#8217; misinformed scheme by<br />
voting with their feet,&#8221; says Fallon Morell.  &#8220;Most major grocery store chains now<br />
carry basic organic staples and a larger array of organic fruits and vegetables than<br />
Whole Foods markets. And citizens should purchase seasonal produce  and their<br />
meat, eggs and dairy products directly from farmers engaged in non-toxic and<br />
grass-based farming. It&#8217;s not appropriate for Whole Foods to promote a scheme that<br />
has no scientific basis and that bulldozes their customers towards the higher profit<br />
items in their stores.&#8221; The local chapters of the Weston A. Price Foundation help consumers<br />
connect with farmers raising animal foods in humane, healthy and ecologically friendly fashion.</p>
<p>&#8220;The growing emphasis on plant-based diets deficient in animal protein also serves to<br />
promote soy foods as both meat and dairy substitutes,&#8221; says Kaayla T. Daniel, PhD, CCN,<br />
author of The Whole Soy Story: The Dark Side of America&#8217;s Favorite Health Food.  <br />
&#8220;Soy is not only one of the top eight allergens but has been linked in more than sixty<br />
years of studies to malnutrition, digestive distress, thyroid dysfunction, reproductive<br />
disorders including infertility, and even cancer, especially breast cancer.&#8221; </p>
<p>&#8220;Low-fat patients are my most unhealthy patients,&#8221; says John P. Salerno, MD,<br />
a board certified family physician from New York City. &#8220;The reason we are<br />
spiraling into diabetes and obesity is because of the low-fat concept developed<br />
by the U.S government decades ago. Low-fat diets have a low nutrient base, and<br />
phytonutrients in vegetables cannot be properly absorbed without fat.&#8221;</p>
<p>Fallon Morell cites recent studies from Europe showing that low-fat diets<br />
promote weight gain in both children and adults, and also contribute to<br />
infertility. A meta-analysis published January, 2010 in the American Journal<br />
of Clinical Nutrition found no significant evidence that saturated fat consumption<br />
is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.</p>
<p>&#8220;Whole Foods CEO John Mackay has stated that eating animal fats amounts to<br />
an addiction. But in fact, animal fats are essential for good health,&#8221; says<br />
Fallon Morell. &#8220;The nutrients in animal fats, such as vitamins A, D and K,<br />
arachidonic acid, DHA, choline, cholesterol and saturated fat, are critical<br />
for brain function. In the misguided war against cholesterol and saturated<br />
fat, we have created an epidemic of learning disorders in the young and<br />
mental decline in the elderly.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Perhaps the vegetarian diet has affected the thinking powers of<br />
Whole Foods management,&#8221; says Fallon Morell. &#8220;It&#8217;s time for the<br />
stockholders to insist on leadership devoted to increasing customer<br />
base, not promoting a personal vegetarian agenda.&#8221;</p>
