Firebirds 4x400M Relay Team Announced 2013 Division II Outdoor Track & Field Championships Participants
Shauna-Kay Creary, Firebirds 4x400M Relay Team Announced 2013 Division II Outdoor Track & Field Championships Participants
INDIANAPOLIS – Shauna-Kay Creary and the 4x400M relay team of Kaydian Jones, Jerily Benjamin, Rochelle Nelson and Simone Grant, will represent the University of the District of Columbia at the 2013 NCAA Division II Women's Track & Field Championships on May 23-25th in Pueblo, CO. Creary and the Firebird 4x400M relay team qualified for the championships by reaching the automatic and provisional standards established for each event.
"What a tremendous achievement to cap off what's been a great year," head coach Alton McKenzie said. "I'm happy and honored that we're going to have the opportunity to represent the University of the District of Columbia at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships."
Creary (Accounting – Kingston, Jamaica/St. Andrew HS), who became the first Firebird to compete in the Long Jump at the NCAA Indoor Championships in Birmingham, AL back in March, will also be the school's first to compete in two more events – the Triple Jump and the High Jump - at the Outdoor Championships. She is ranked No. 11 in the nation in the High Jump with a season-best jump of 1.73M, and she is No. 14 in the Triple Jump with a season-best mark of 12.30M.
The Firebird 4x400M relay team of junior Kaydian Jones (Journalism – Kingston, Jamaica/St. Andrew HS), sophomore Jerily Benjamin (Undecided – Queens, NY/Phillip Randolph HS), junior Rochelle Nelson (Mass Media – Kingston, Jamaica/Holmwood Tech HS) and freshman Simone Grant (Health Education – Bronx, NY/Pelham Prep Academy) earned an invitation as the No. 13 relay team in the nation with a season-best time of 3:45.64.
"These women have earned the right to be there, and I can't say enough about how proud they've made me feel," McKenzie said. "I'm also appreciative of the assistance provided by Coach Bembridge in helping the team get to this moment. But we're not done yet...there's still a lot of work to be done in Colorado. We'll enjoy the moment, but with the goal in mind to go out there and compete to the best of our abilities, just as we've done all year."

D.C. Divas improve to 4-1
Divas Drown Sharks in Rain-Shortened Game, 49-6
Neal Rozendaal
Washington, DC – As rain soaked the football field, you might expect that the team nicknamed the Sharks would have the upper hand.
Turns out, Divas have no problem playing in wet conditions, either.
Allyson Hamlin threw four touchdown passes, Kenyetta Grigsby rushed for three more, and the DC Divas topped the New York Sharks after three quarters of play, 49-6.
It was a memorable game, as the Divas (4-1) returned to the District for the first time in nine years. The contest was played at Coolidge High School in northwest DC, where former Divas wide receiver Natalie Randolph now serves as the head football coach. Randolph accompanied the Divas captains to midfield for the opening coin toss as the team’s honorary captain.
Lightning threatened the contest from the very start; players for both teams were pulled off of the field during pregame warm-ups as a lightning storm approached. Even though the game was slightly delayed, the Divas took the field ready to play. Donna Wilkinson returned the opening kickoff to the 35-yard line, and on the first offensive play from scrimmage, Grigsby dashed 65 yards to give the Divas a 7-0 lead 15 seconds into the game.
New York took over on offense and was forced to punt after three unsuccessful plays, which would be a recurring theme for the Sharks in the first half. The Sharks (2-4) also had difficulty punting in the poor conditions, leading to three straight possessions where the Divas started offensive drives inside the New York 30-yard line.
On each occasion, the Divas took advantage. Grigsby added her second rushing touchdown of the day less than five minutes into the game, and then the Divas took to the air. Hamlin fired two touchdown passes on the Divas’ next two possessions, the first a 37-yard strike to Ashley Whisonant on third and 17 to give the Divas a 21-0 lead.
Hamlin’s second touchdown toss of the game went to Juliette Baker-Brice; Baker-Brice finished the contest with two catches for 48 yards and one touchdown. The Divas held a strong 28-0 lead after just one quarter.
Turnovers plagued the Divas at the start of the second period, when a fumble and an interception thwarted successive drives. But the defense held up their end of the deal, repeatedly shutting down the Sharks’ offense. Eleni Kotsis defended three passes in the game, and Trigger McNair and Callie Brownson batted down two each. With the DC defenders knocking passes down and forcing errant throws, the Sharks were repeatedly forced to punt the ball back to the Divas.
Whisonant did an excellent job handling punts in the challenging weather conditions, and a long 30-yard punt return with around nine minutes left in the half gave the Divas the ball at midfield. Grigsby did the rest, breaking three tackles on the first play of the drive to charge 51 yards into the end zone. Her third score of the game gave the Divas a 35-0 advantage. Kenyetta Grigsby had another spectacular game with 12 carries for 168 yards and three touchdowns.
The defense quickly gave the Divas the ball back, and DC then took over three and a half minutes on a long, methodical push to the end zone again. Elise Pittman, who had 11 yards rushing on five carries and three catches for 15 yards, did most of her damage on this drive. The drive culminated with a 28-yard touchdown reception by Whisonant; Ashley Whisonant finished the game with 58 yards receiving, and two of her three catches went for touchdowns. Her second score resulted in a 42-0 lead.
The Divas’ defense took center stage at the conclusion of the first half. The Sharks finally got their first first down of the game with just over two minutes remaining in the half. New York completed a pass to the DC six-yard line and desperately tried to crack the scoreboard by halftime. On two separate occasions, the DC defense was penalized for pass interference in the end zone, giving the Sharks a new set of downs at the two-yard line.
But time and again, the Divas’ defense held firm. They turned back the New York offense on seven straight plays inside the ten-yard line and denied them a first half score. After stuffing a run at the goal line on fourth down, the Divas regained possession and ran out the clock on the first half, leading by 42 points.
The defense carried that momentum into the second half, courtesy of Callie Brownson. The Sharks took the ball to start the half, and on their first play from scrimmage, Brownson picked off the New York pass and returned it 15 yards to the 28-yard line.
Hamlin didn’t waste time making the Sharks pay. She completed two passes to Kasee Hilliard for thirty yards, including a 21-yard touchdown strike on fourth down to boost the lead to 49-0. For the game, Hamlin completed nine of her 12 pass attempts for 157 yards and four touchdowns with one interception.
With the Divas firmly in control, the Sharks finally got their offense moving near the end of the third quarter. New York’s Lauren Pringle caught a 30-yard touchdown pass with 3:06 left in the third quarter to make the score 49-6.
Just two minutes later, lightning in the area forced the officials to pull both teams off of the field. After a lengthy delay, the teams tried to resume play. They managed to get just two plays off before lightning resurfaced, and the officials halted the game after three quarters.
The Divas now have a 4-1 record as they prepare for their final road trip of the regular season. They head to Boston next week for a rematch with the Militia, where they hope to avenge their only loss of the year.

The Best Cancer Treatment on Earth
Just Got Better!
Hi. I'm Lee Euler, the editor of Cancer Defeated. On a recent tour of top cancer clinics with my colleague Andrew Scholberg, we learned about some remarkable new cancer treatments. In spite of all the information we already knew, these treatments were brand new to us. They're important discoveries.

How to save over 6 million lives a year
When you look at research from the American Cancer Society and the American Institute for Cancer Research, you see that both estimate more than 30 percent of cancer is preventable through exercise, sensible eating, and staying thin. I'd say it's far more than 30 percent, but that's their number.
Their figure means roughly 3.8 million cancers worldwide could be prevented.
But there's more. Consider that smoking still accounts for over 30 percent of cancers. Combine that fact with what we know about diet and exercise choices, and we have evidence that more than 50 percent of cancers and deaths related to cancer could be avoided.
That means as many as 6.35 million lives saved, every year.
Don't get me wrong here. Yes, there are still genetic-related cancers that fall beyond our control. Yes, there are people who make wise lifestyle choices who will still develop cancer as a result of some environmental toxin beyond their control.
But if we could save half of them … if one of them was your spouse, or your son, or your father or sister. Then it'd be worth it, right? Here's how to get started.

Top 10 things to do to lower your risk of cancer
Here's what the research suggests you do to modify your lifestyle and lower your cancer risk:
- Increase your daily consumption of dietary fiber. This helps lower the risk of several cancers, including breast, prostate, lung, gastric, and colorectal.
- Eat more fruits and vegetables, and make them organic. Especially aim for antioxidant-rich foods like blueberries and blackberries, cruciferous vegetables (broccoli and cauliflower are two of the best), and natural foods with high levels of carotenoids, like spinach, kale, sweet potatoes, and carrots.
- Eat whole grains, and stay away from GMOs.
- Eat fish, but eat the right kind.
- Eat nuts.
- Drink green tea and — if you must drink — choose wine. Stay away from calorie-loaded beer and liver-taxing liquor.
- Consider vegetarianism, or at least a primarily plant-based diet. It's linked to a lower overall cancer risk and a lower likelihood of developing female-specific cancers.
- Limit your intake of saturated fats from meat and dairy. Those from nuts, avocado and coconut are healthy. Avoid processed meat altogether (see the article below).
- Take vitamins and supplements. Vitamins C, D, E and the B vitamins, especially folic acid, appear to offer significant protection in terms of cancer prevention.
- Exercise daily. Moderate exercise — a simple half hour walk — makes a huge difference. Strength-training and more challenging aerobic activities are even better. But there's no need to be a fanatic.
Here's where things get sketchy for the medical establishment. While they're finally moving away from the primarily genetic model of cancer, and they now publicly acknowledge the benefits of a healthy diet, scientists and doctors still can't isolate specific compounds from specific foods that will solve all cancer, everywhere.
That's because cancer isn't a disease you can solve with a reductionist attitude. It's not a simple disease. It has multiple causes and takes multiple forms. Cancer demands a whole-body approach.
There's a hidden bonus to all this, too. Following a whole-body, healthy lifestyle approach not only decreases your odds of cancer, it also protects you against a barrage of other chronic diseases like arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.
In fact, it's only a slight exaggeration to say all these diseases are one disease, mainly caused by poor eating and exercise choices, and giving up on the "battle of the bulge." Cancer only stands somewhat apart from diabetes and heart disease because it's also closely tied to toxic chemical exposure, certain infections and parasites, and (in some cases) faulty genes.
Because of these added risk factors, people who eat right, exercise and stay thin can nonetheless be hit with a cancer diagnosis. The lifestyle changes cut your cancer risk by at least half — but they cut your risk of heart disease and diabetes by nearly 100 percent.

It all comes down to the importance of a healthy lifestyle, which is something we've always supported here at Cancer Defeated. Scientists have yet to find that single, perfect nutrient from a single, perfect food … probably because there's no such thing.
Our bodies are complex and sophisticated. There may never be a one-shot-fixes-all way to prevent and heal cancer. But we already know, and it gets underscored more with each passing year, there IS a way to support the radical built-in defenses of our own bodies.
It's called a whole-food, comprehensive approach, not unlike other things that sustain us. Take your job, for instance. To enjoy employment, you not only need to love what you do, you also need to feel valued, work with people you like, and get paid appropriately.
The same goes for romantic relationships. It's not just the physical connection that's important. Romance is also sustained by pursuing outside interests together, having long conversations, laughing over dinner with friends, and so forth.
Why then, has it been so hard for some to understand how essential a whole-body approach is when it comes to health and cancer prevention? It's been slow going, but it's nice to see the tides are changing.
I like to think we're moving toward a "seatbelt approach" when it comes to cancer prevention and treatment, where lifestyle choices are the seatbelt. No, a seatbelt can't save everybody from every vehicle collision. But it can dramatically reduce your chances of facing a life-threatening injury, and it's common knowledge that a seatbelt is the best way to lower your risk.
Same goes for smart lifestyle choices when it comes to cancer. Hopefully soon, it'll be common knowledge that such is the best way to lower your risk of ever facing cancer.
I mentioned above that processed "pink" meats like ham and bacon increase your cancer risk. If you'd like to why, read the article below.

Some people would tell you that a chargrilled hot dog is as much a symbol of America as the stars and stripes, baseball, and apple pie.
But many health advisors say hot dogs and other processed meats don't deserve their all-American image. "What's the beef," you say?
Well, scores of studies have linked hot dogs, bacon, sausage and other red meats with a higher risk of developing cancer. Here's what the evidence shows. . .

The Real Reason You're Tired
If you're feeling tired and listless too often ... lacking your old pep and enthusiasm ... and relying on caffeine and energy drinks to make it through the day...
There are two secret medical reasons why. They're your adrenal glands — and, chances are, they're both "burned out." Does this sound like you? You can't seem to get going in the morning without coffee or a strong energy drink. You sputter out mid-morning — yawning, tired, and unable to concentrate. When you get home, you collapse on the couch. Yet, at night you toss and turn — and simply can't fall into a deep sleep. If this sounds like your life lately, please keep reading... ...because there's a remarkable new way to "recharge" your body and actually fix the secret cause of "adrenal fatigue!" Even better — in just a matter of days, this natural solution can have you feeling more energetic and alive than you have in decades! Read on... |
In fact, at least 58 studies show that the more hot dogs and other processed meats you eat—the more you bump up your chances for colorectal cancer.
What's more, other studies have linked these foods to cancer of the ovaries and prostate, as well as leukemia. For example:
What's more, other studies have linked these foods to cancer of the ovaries and prostate, as well as leukemia. For example:
- Colon cancer—an American Cancer Society (ACS) study analyzed the relationship of red meat intake to colon cancer risk. Researchers studied the eating habits of nearly 150,000 adults between the ages of 50 to 74 for 10 years. In the final year of the study, the investigators analyzed the incidence of colon cancer in study participants.
They found that men who ate three or more ounces daily—two or more ounces for women—were 30 to 40 percent more likely to develop colon cancer.
The research team also reviewed poultry and fish consumption, but found no evidence linking these foods to colon cancer. Actually, subjects who ate less red meat and more poultry and fish reduced their risk of developing colon cancer.
Now keep in mind that two to three ounces is barely enough ground beef to cover your palm! It's not hard to get to 21 ounces per week with frequent indulgence in bacon, ham or hot dogs. - Leukemia—a study published in the journal BMC Cancer determined that children who eat more bacon, hot dogs, sausage and other processed meats are 74 percent more likely to develop leukemia than children who avoid such processed meats and eat more vegetables and tofu.
- Prostate—findings reported in the American Journal of Epidemiology said researchers at the National Cancer Institute surveyed more than 175,000 men about their diets, including meat intake and cooking habits.
They followed these men for nine years and found that the 20 percent (one in five) who ate the most red and processed meats were 12 percent more likely to develop prostate cancer.
The connection was even stronger with advanced prostate cancer, the risk being almost one-third higher among those who ate the most red meat versus those who ate the least!
While many will argue that studies have reached conflicting conclusions—you shouldconsider the possibility that changes in the way foods are grown and prepared might play a role in making cancer a top killer in the U.S.
The problem is in the processing…
So what exactly does meat processing involve? Basically, manufacturers use smoking, curing, salting or chemical procedures to preserve the meat. Nitrates are among the more dubious chemical additives
Many meat manufacturers use nitrates to:
Many meat manufacturers use nitrates to:
- Give meats their pinkish color
- Enhance their flavor, and
- Act as a preservative.
When you eat bacon, hot dogs and other meats preserved with nitrates, your body automatically changes some of the nitrates to nitrites.
The nitrites then react with other meat chemicals to produce nitrosamines—which are known carcinogens.
If you also enjoy eating smoked meats, understand that this process produces cancerous hydrocarbons, which enter your food during the smoking process.
How do you feel about munching on slices of smoked, crispy bacon? If you like your meat well done, you should know that cooking processed meat at high temperatures can increasethe formation of nitrosamines.
But how much is too much?
Well, the FDA considers 200 parts per million (ppm) of sodium nitrite added to food as safe. This equals about 1 pound of sodium nitrite additive per 5,000 pounds of cured meat.
If you're currently healthy and not fighting cancer, there's probably not much harm in eating bacon, sausage, ham and hot dogs as an occasional treat. It's large quantities/frequent consumption that appear to pose a risk. I surely hope that most people aren't eating 21 ounces a week (three ounces a day) of these processed pink meats.
Frequent eating of processed meat is probably most common among people who have a weight problem. And it's likely just one of a half dozen bad lifestyle choices the same people are making -- including lots of high-sugar and salt-laden snacks that can help pack on extra pounds. It's all part of the collection of bad eating habits called the Standard American Diet — SAD.
If you want to feel better and live longer, try to load up your diet with fresh, uncooked fruits and vegetables. But — as long as you're not fighting cancer -- you don't necessarily have to give up meat, fat, sugar, potatoes and other carbs completely. Enjoy them once in a while as a special treat. When you do eat meat, choose free-range meat that's raised without antibiotics and hormones.
You can indulge as much as you want in healthy saturated fats like nuts, avocado and coconut oil (see Issue #247 for the fats that are good for you). Cashew butter and almond butter are loaded with fat and delicious — and good for you. Who needs hot dogs?
And even though the feds say that small amounts of sodium nitrite in processed meats probably won't cause cancer, consider playing it safe by making wiser choices.
When you feel the yen for bacon or sausage, many health food stores offer meat products that are nitrate-free. These products often have the word "uncured" on the packaging.

D.C. Divas host N.Y. tomorrow night at 6pm
Two Historic Franchises Clash in Special DC Game
Neal Rozendaal
Washington, DC – Two of the most successful teams in women’s football will square off Saturday when the DC Divas make a special trip to the District to face the New York Sharks.
The DC Divas (3-1) have won 89 games in their history, which ranks fourth all-time in the sport. Just ahead of them on the all-time list are the New York Sharks (2-3), a franchise that claims 93 victories. The sport’s all-time record for most total victories between opposing teams will be broken when these two teams and their 182 combined wins kick off Saturday.
“New York’s been around for a while,” Divas head coach Alison Fischer remarked. “We’ve had a good rivalry with New York. We both respect each other, and it’s gone back and forth through the years.”
Coach Fischer singled out New York’s passing attack as one of the strengths of this year's Sharks squad. “They always have a pretty solid team. Their quarterback’s a veteran and they like to throw the ball a lot. It’s definitely a change of pace from what we just saw with Boston. It’ll test our pass defense,” she said.
The Divas will face the Sharks on Saturday in a unique venue: Coolidge High School in northwest DC. The Divas usually play in Landover, Maryland, right next to FedEx Field, the home of the Washington Redskins. However, for one game, the Divas are returning to the District; the Divas staged home games at DC’s Eastern High School from 2001 to 2005 before leaving for Landover in 2006.
Coolidge High School's field is very familiar to the Divas’ players and coaches, because it serves as their usual practice facility during the season. Coolidge High made national headlines in 2010, when it hired former Divas great Natalie Randolph as their head football coach. Randolph is the only woman currently serving as a head football coach at a U.S. high school, and she was just the third female ever hired to such a position. Coach Randolph rose to football prominence as a wide receiver for the Divas from 2003 to 2008.
Saturday’s game will be part of a fundraiser for Coolidge High School athletics. While the Divas will return to Landover for their final two regular season home games, the contest against the Sharks should be a special treat for local Divas fans in Washington, DC.
Most Reported Wins in Women’s Professional Football, All-Time
1. Dallas Diamonds (WFA) – 105
2. Sacramento Sirens (WFA) – 102
3. NEW YORK SHARKS (WFA) – 93

13. Columbus Comets (WFA) – 70
13. St. Louis Slam (WFA) – 70
15. Pittsburgh Passion (WFA) – 68
Around the WFA – Two of New York’s three losses this season have come at the hands of the Boston Militia, who downed the Sharks last week, 47-0…The Sacramento Sirens kept the WFA’s perfect record in interleague games intact, throttling the IWFL’s Nevada Storm, 61-8…The Utah Jynx’ offense is one of the league’s most explosive. The Jynx demolished the Arizona Assassins Saturday, 80-6; it’s the most points scored in a single WFA game this season, topping the 73-6 victory the Jynx recorded over the Tacoma Trauma three weeks earlier…The Columbus Comets improved their record to 3-2 with a 56-7 victory over the Toledo Reign. The Divas’ division, which also has Columbus and the Pittsburgh Passion, is the only one of the WFA’s 13 divisions where every team currently has a winning record.

This meat should come with a warning label
These foods should be packaged
with a warning label!
Some people would tell you that a chargrilled hot dog is as much a symbol of America as the stars and stripes, baseball, and apple pie.
But many health advisors say hot dogs and other processed meats don't deserve their all-American image. "What's the beef," you say?
Well, scores of studies have linked hot dogs, bacon, sausage and other red meats with a higher risk of developing cancer. Here's what the evidence shows. . .

Well, scores of studies have linked hot dogs, bacon, sausage and other red meats with a higher risk of developing cancer. Here's what the evidence shows. . .
Continued below. . .
The Real Reason You're Tired
If you're feeling tired and listless too often ... lacking your old pep and enthusiasm ... and relying on caffeine and energy drinks to make it through the day...
There are two secret medical reasons why. They're your adrenal glands — and, chances are, they're both "burned out." Does this sound like you? You can't seem to get going in the morning without coffee or a strong energy drink. You sputter out mid-morning — yawning, tired, and unable to concentrate. When you get home, you collapse on the couch. Yet, at night you toss and turn — and simply can't fall into a deep sleep. If this sounds like your life lately, please keep reading... ...because there's a remarkable new way to "recharge" your body and actually fix the secret cause of "adrenal fatigue!" Even better — in just a matter of days, this natural solution can have you feeling more energetic and alive than you have in decades! Read on... |
In fact, at least 58 studies show that the more hot dogs and other processed meats you eat—the more you bump up your chances for colorectal cancer.
What's more, other studies have linked these foods to cancer of the ovaries and prostate, as well as leukemia. For example:
What's more, other studies have linked these foods to cancer of the ovaries and prostate, as well as leukemia. For example:
- Colon cancer—an American Cancer Society (ACS) study analyzed the relationship of red meat intake to colon cancer risk. Researchers studied the eating habits of nearly 150,000 adults between the ages of 50 to 74 for 10 years. In the final year of the study, the investigators analyzed the incidence of colon cancer in study participants.
They found that men who ate three or more ounces daily—two or more ounces for women—were 30 to 40 percent more likely to develop colon cancer.
The research team also reviewed poultry and fish consumption, but found no evidence linking these foods to colon cancer. Actually, subjects who ate less red meat and more poultry and fish reduced their risk of developing colon cancer.
Now keep in mind that two to three ounces is barely enough ground beef to cover your palm! It's not hard to get to 21 ounces per week with frequent indulgence in bacon, ham or hot dogs. - Leukemia—a study published in the journal BMC Cancer determined that children who eat more bacon, hot dogs, sausage and other processed meats are 74 percent more likely to develop leukemia than children who avoid such processed meats and eat more vegetables and tofu.
- Prostate—findings reported in the American Journal of Epidemiology said researchers at the National Cancer Institute surveyed more than 175,000 men about their diets, including meat intake and cooking habits.
They followed these men for nine years and found that the 20 percent (one in five) who ate the most red and processed meats were 12 percent more likely to develop prostate cancer.
The connection was even stronger with advanced prostate cancer, the risk being almost one-third higher among those who ate the most red meat versus those who ate the least!
While many will argue that studies have reached conflicting conclusions—you shouldconsider the possibility that changes in the way foods are grown and prepared might play a role in making cancer a top killer in the U.S.
The problem is in the processing…
So what exactly does meat processing involve? Basically, manufacturers use smoking, curing, salting or chemical procedures to preserve the meat. Nitrates are among the more dubious chemical additives
Many meat manufacturers use nitrates to:
Many meat manufacturers use nitrates to:
- Give meats their pinkish color
- Enhance their flavor, and
- Act as a preservative.
When you eat bacon, hot dogs and other meats preserved with nitrates, your body automatically changes some of the nitrates to nitrites.
The nitrites then react with other meat chemicals to produce nitrosamines—which are known carcinogens.
If you also enjoy eating smoked meats, understand that this process produces cancerous hydrocarbons, which enter your food during the smoking process.
How do you feel about munching on slices of smoked, crispy bacon? If you like your meat well done, you should know that cooking processed meat at high temperatures can increasethe formation of nitrosamines.
But how much is too much?
Well, the FDA considers 200 parts per million (ppm) of sodium nitrite added to food as safe. This equals about 1 pound of sodium nitrite additive per 5,000 pounds of cured meat.
If you're currently healthy and not fighting cancer, there's probably not much harm in eating bacon, sausage, ham and hot dogs as an occasional treat. It's large quantities/frequent consumption that appear to pose a risk. I surely hope that most people aren't eating 21 ounces a week (three ounces a day) of these processed pink meats.
Frequent eating of processed meat is probably most common among people who have a weight problem. And it's likely just one of a half dozen bad lifestyle choices the same people are making -- including lots of high-sugar and salt-laden snacks that can help pack on extra pounds. It's all part of the collection of bad eating habits called the Standard American Diet — SAD.
If you want to feel better and live longer, try to load up your diet with fresh, uncooked fruits and vegetables. But — as long as you're not fighting cancer -- you don't necessarily have to give up meat, fat, sugar, potatoes and other carbs completely. Enjoy them once in a while as a special treat. When you do eat meat, choose free-range meat that's raised without antibiotics and hormones.
You can indulge as much as you want in healthy saturated fats like nuts, avocado and coconut oil (see Issue #247 for the fats that are good for you). Cashew butter and almond butter are loaded with fat and delicious — and good for you. Who needs hot dogs?
And even though the feds say that small amounts of sodium nitrite in processed meats probably won't cause cancer, consider playing it safe by making wiser choices.
When you feel the yen for bacon or sausage, many health food stores offer meat products that are nitrate-free. These products often have the word "uncured" on the packaging.
