First, the use of a single 24 hr dietary recall followed by up to 18 years of mortality assessment has the potential of misclassifying dietary practice if the 24 hr period was not representative of a participant's normal day.
Wow, that seems so slim.
But the thing I saw on facebook with the two boxes, one with cigarettes, and one with hotdogs (?) was so compelling!
My appt with my foot doc is less than an hour away and all of a sudden I'm all nervous about it. I know it is healing and I know that the worst case senario is that I spend more time in the boot and with crutches, but the nerves are still setting in.
Ginger beat me to it - a large number of nutritional conclusion are based on limited or self reported studies
No way am I cutting back to "low to moderate" amounts of protein. After so many years of obsessing over every morsel, I'm kinda sick of the whole good/bad food deal. And thanks, Ginger, for pointing out how limited the study was.
msbelle, having that agency disappear must be like the rug getting yanked out from under you. Very glad that it will pose no actual threat to your family, but how unsettling. Does mac know? Would it bother him?
We're up to Winter Storm Vulcan now. Does that really mean we've had 22 named winter storms this season? Holy crow.
You guys, my bathroom finally got painted today and it is SOFA KING GOOD. I'll take pictures after the second coat.
If we're lucky, it'll be clear enough to see both Mt. Baker and Mt. Rainier, at the same time.
Very lucky if you did. Gorgeous.

Being a crappy eater, I have no moral high ground on this, but having to debate ever forkful does not enhance one's life.

It surely the fuck does not.

I'm stealing this.
I just read a disturbing article that claims a diet moderate to high in protein in middle age, esp animal-based protein, raises your risk of cancer to the same degree that smoking does.
Considering how often I am tempted to start smoking again lately (the thing that stops me is that I am absolutely positive that that first drag would taste terrible, feel worse, and make me cough for ages. And yet it is still tempting!) sticking with JUST the animal protein based diet danger still seems like a win.
