Does meat eating cause diabetes?

Does meat eating cause diabetes?

Here we go again. I’ve just been reminded that sensationalism is still alive and well.
Another “study” has come out that trumpets a BOLD statement about diet and health, but when you dive deeper into the details, you see there are several holes and omissions.

The creepy crawlies inside of you

Happy Halloween to you!
I thought today would be a good day to talk about a health subject that seems like a real-life horror movie.

The taboo subject that most people dread

The taboo subject that most people dread

Few words in the English language conjure up as much dread as EXERCISE.
Alas, when the word exercise comes up, the excuses come out!
Many people claim to "not have the time." Yet they can tell you what happened on Criminal Minds or NCIS each week. The sad thing is, most excuse-makers also happen to be overweight, sick and medicated.
