Interesting viewpoint on prejudice leading to an even more eye-opening discussion thread.
4) Divine Caroline: 10 Sugary Cereals to Avoid
Marshmallow Froot Loops are 48 PERCENT SUGAR? Are you JOSHING ME? It’s one of those things you knew, but don’t really know until someone translates it into a stat like that. Yowza.
5) Public Radio Kitchen: What Not to Get the Cook on Your List
Um, not that we’re ungrateful. But … yeah. Lots of cluttery tools out there.

Top Ten Links of the Week 1 28 11 2 3 11
Monday, April 21, 2014
Big news this week, as the USDA released their new food guidelines and Mark Bittman started his new occasional editorial series for The New York Times. Also, there’s this … thing? This Sunday? I don’t know. I think some people are eating at it. And there’s some kind of ball.
1) Get Rich Slowly: Fight Rising Prices By Building Your Own Food Bank
This guest post from Donna Freedman advocates – in a new and intelligent way – the stockpiling of food in your home. It’s not so much that you’ll never eat it, but enough to get you through the winter, especially when Mama Nature feels the urge to drop another three feet o’ precipitation on your car.
2) Lifehacker: The Geek’s Guide to Rebooting Your Kitchen
Dig this one-minute video about maximizing kitchen efficiency. Then read the more detailed descriptions, which will undoubtedly help you in your quest to reorganize. Then think about the video again, asking yourself, “How did the cat manage to be in the way at all times?” Then ponder cat ownership.
3) New York Times: A Food Manifesto for the Future
Remember that Bittman piece we spoke of up top? This is it. His proposals for a better food future read wonderfully, but have a long way to go before they’re actualized – if it ever happens. Still, it’s nice that they’re even out there. (Think positive!)
4) Cracked: 6 Subtle Ways You’re Getting Screwed at the Grocery Store
Perhaps not as classic as Cracked’s “6 Animals That Just Don’t Give a F#@k” from November, but very helpful nonetheless. Caution: Beware the saucy language. (Also, the Ides of March.)
5) Food Politics: The 2010 Dietary Guidelines: Enjoy your food, but eat less!
Marion Nestle breaks down the new USDA guidelines in easy-to-understand bulletpoints. (Seriously, they’re really easy to understand. They average about five words each.) Bonus: she’s attached the link to the PDF itself. Browse through if you’re feeling motivated.
6) Zen Habits: The Simplest Diet for Lean Fitness
In which Leo Babauta counsels against extreme changes to your eating and exercise plans. He adjusted his gradually, until it his body was working optimally. Best part? Never felt a thing.
7) xkcd: Learning to Cook
This one-panel comic has been all over the food ‘net this week, but it’s so good, I’m linking to it again. (No picture, so you have to click! MUAHAHAHAHA!)
8) The Kitchn: Halving Casseroles: Tips for Reducing the Size of a Recipe
Oooo … I need to do this ALL THE TIME, since it’s only HOTUS and me at home. (Also, the cat. But he has a pretty strict casserole policy. If I make one, it’s all his, or we get clawed.)
9) New York Times: Mushrooms Fill in the Blanks for the Meat-Free
Ahh … the power of fungus. I’ve known of mushrooms’ curious ability to sate ever since my friend H. grilled me my first big ol’ Portobello in college. Now, the Times is sharing five recipes of its own. (Or, of other people’s. You know how it goes.)
10) Café Johnsonia: S.M.A.R.T. Goals
The SMART system to creating goals means they should be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and should have a timeline. (There are also a few other acronyms in there, but the internet only has so much space.) They guidelines are pretty much applicable to anything, but especially achieving bodily health. Mama likes. (P.S. Beware you spell “SMART” right. Otherwise, this.)

Business Week: TV – A Sneaky Part of the Food Pyramid

USA TODAY: Catch of the Week – 8 Ounces of Fish in Your Diet

AND ALSO

INTENSITY: Give 100%. 110% is impossible. Only idiots recommend that.

Identify 11 types of heart disease are dangerous!
Sunday, April 13, 2014
Identify 11 types of heart disease are dangerous! - Most people classify all types of cardiovascular diseases into one category, namely heart attack. However, often we do not realize that heart disease is the end result of many types of heart disease. Having a heart attack are the implications of heart disease. The term cardiovascular ers to the heart itself and blood vessels that supply blood to the heart. Each issue either on the heart or blood vessels that supply blood to the heart can cause cardiovascular disease. Here are some types of heart disease you need to be aware, as reported Boldsky.
1. Coronary Artery Disease
This is the most common type of heart disease, in which the arterial wall thickens due to accumulation of fat. This condition inhibits the amount of blood that goes to the heart and increase blood pressure.
2. Trachycardia
Trachycardia is basically the medical term for an elevated heart rate. Palpitations and high heart rate can be caused due to several reasons such as smoking, alcohol and stress.
3. Heart Muscle Disease
Sometimes, the heart muscle may also weaken. In this case, the function of the heart muscle is slowed down and is unable to pump enough blood to the body.
4. Heart Valve Disease
The heart has four valves. If one or more of the heart valves do not work properly, you may have a stroke or angina.
5. Bradycardia
Bradycardia is the medical term for a slow heart rate. It occurs when the heart muscles are tired. Pacemaker installed in the heart can stimulate heart rate back down.
6. Heart Failure
Heart failure often occurs when the heart can not pump blood and stops working. This can happen when a person loses a lot of blood, shocked or even because of lung problems.
7. Congenital Heart Disease
Some babies are born with a weak heart or a hole in their heart. The condition can be corrected with surgery, but does not always succeed.
8. Cerebrovascular Disorders
Occurrence of resistance in circulating blood from the heart to the brain, the condition is called cerebrovascular disease. Type of heart disease is very dangerous because it can cause a stroke in the brain.
9. Angina
Angina is the medical term that describes the pain and tightness around the chest. This is because your chest is not getting enough oxygen. This condition is most often caused by a small blockage in the heart or coronary arteries.
10. Rheumatic Heart Disease
A particular type of bacterial infection in childhood may lead to affect the joints and heart valves. Heart problems began to emerge in adulthood. The only cure is often heart valve replacement with the help of surgery.
11. Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is hardening of the arteries. Often hardens arteries because of the outbreak sediment, toxins and fat. This can cause increased blood pressure and heart stroke.
These are eleven types of heart disease that you should be aware. Heart disease has many types and reasons that triggered it. I hope this review gives you an idea about the dangers of heart disease!
