Plain old water, green tea, natural fruit juice, or low fat milk are among the best low calorie beverages around. On that note its very important to recognize

BPAs pervasiveness is why environmentalists want the Board of Envrionmental Protection to go further and limit the sale of more products with BPA.

2010-08-11 Choose foods, not nutrients

The problem is not that people are confused about foods and nutrition. Its just cheaper, faster, and tastier to use prepared foods, so people will buy them even if they are not health-promoting. Yes theres extra high fructose corn syrup, salt and fat and people crave and are addicted to these when they are used to them. Cooking healthy food takes effort and imagination.
