		<description><![CDATA[Leah Frankel, MS, RD - With a new diet making headlines each week it can be more than a little confusing deciding which diet will give you the results you’re looking for. Many of these diets have some good intentions but can be very stringent or not realistic to follow for more than a few days. Most fad diets cut out entire food groups, making it difficult to meet the nutrient requirements we need for our bodies to function properly. These fad diets become popular because people actually lose weight on them; many of these fad diets will reduce your caloric intake in one way or another leading to weight loss…it’s not rocket science. Last year, a nutrition professor lost weight on a diet consisting of twinkies and donuts because he simply decreased his overall calorie intake. We don’t recommend the Twinkie Diet (it is obviously lacking in several areas including fruits and vegetables), but it proves a valuable point: there’s more to a healthy diet than weight loss.  We’ll not only discuss the basic ideas behind many fad diets, but we’ll get into the good, the bad and the ugly.]]></description>

According to commercials for the OneTouch glucose monitoring device, rock and roll legend B.B. King hasn’t let Type II diabetes give him the blues.

		<description><![CDATA[With increasing numbers of Americans now unemployed or taking salary cuts, it’s not surprising that people are trying to save money any way possible. Cutting back could mean only one double chocolate espresso ventichino per week instead of your normal five or carpooling to work instead of driving.  Many people worry that cutting back in terms of food costs may mean more trips to fast food joints and less fruits and vegetables.  In fact, there has been a boom in fast food consumption recently due to our current economic status.  We’re here to discuss tips for maintaining a healthy diet even in these hard economic times, compare a typical fast food meal to one prepared at home (looking at both price and nutritional value) and prove to you that you can continue eating healthy even if the economy has let you down!]]></description>
