Just a quick note today.
I’m currently reading “The Tao of Physics” by Fritjof Capra and thought I share a very interesting visual with you.
To understand the size of an atom consider the following:
If you were to take an orange, and blow it up to the size of the Earth, it’s atoms would be the size of cherries.
To me, this is truly amazing visual that really puts the microcosmic world into perspective.

PS- From physics to philophy, the power of a void or of ‘nothing’ is remarkable. Tying in to nutrition, remember – The best way to accomplish something by doing nothing is by fasting. Simply take a break from eating and burn body fat. Simple.

I was asked by one of my subscribers if I could come up with a recipe for buckwheat. I’m not exactly renowned as a baker generally, although I did make all the breads in a catering company I worked for a few years back, so I have the basic knowledge of what to do. Shouldn’t be too hard to incorporate buckwheat into baking, right? Since we’re also featuring Allspice on Spice week and had requests for Nutmeg, this recipe covers all bases.
Here Stateside, buckwheat is primarily sold as processed flour or in pancake mixes. The Japanese use buckwheat flour to make Soba noodles as well as other products. In Europe, buckwheat groats (de-hulled seeds) called Kasha are cooked as a rice substitute. The groats are sometimes used in the U.S. as a breakfast cereal in place of oatmeal or porridge.Buckwheat is a suitable substitute for grains for people who are […]

It has been shown that being obese can increase risk of an early death by 2 to 3 times, but what about being just a little overweight? In my day to day life I see many examples of people who are just a little overweight. In fact, I would guess that at least 1/3 of the people I know who are over the age of 50 fit into this category. I have found a few studies that show that being overweight increases the risk for several life threatening diseases.

[I love seeing older people who are full of energy and goofing around, like this couple. Honestly, there is no reason to grow up and act like an elderly person is "suppose to". I say no to all of that! I am aiming for 40-50 more years of fun and excitement.]

An interesting new study shows that drinking beet root juice boosts your stamina and could help you exercise for up to 16% longer.
The theory is that the nitrate contained in beet root juice leads to a reduction in oxygen uptake, making exercise less tiring.
And while the researchers are not yet sure of the exact mechanism that causes the nitrate in the beet root juice to boost stamina, they suspect it could be a result of the nitrate turning into nitric oxide in the body, reducing the oxygen cost of exercise.

In fact, drinking beet root juice reduces oxygen uptake and improves endurance better than any other known means, including training.
Including training!
Obviously, this is big news for endurance athletes.
The Science
The researchers gave the test subjects 500ml per day of organic beet root juice for six consecutive days before completing a series of tests, involving cycling on an exercise bike.
