Oh how sweet it is…. I’ll admit, I have a sweet tooth. Once I get a taste of something sweet, it’s like a Lay’s Potato Chip, you can bet, I can’t eat just one. Excess sugar can be destructive to our health, filled with empty calories that expand our waistline. Enter, a possible solution…sugar “substitutes”. […]

I’ve upped my cardio, but can’t seem to lose much weight, what’s happening? – Tony L. Stop All That Cardio! Ok, I’m going to save you from the “blah-blah-blah” regarding the molecular underpinnings of exercise, fat breakdown and utilization, and hormonal cascades that relate to hunger, fat storage/release, and metabolism…and keep it simple. Look around […]
It’s all over social media, the FDA said Lucky Charms is healthier than ground beef, how? – Greg M. Lucky Charms is magical, but not that magical!

Vitamin C seems to come in so many forms, which one is the best? – Carol S. In short…doesn’t really matter! Vitamin C is one, if not THE most popular single Vitamin supplement that individuals take.
