As I do research on ways to clean up my diet, I keep stumbling upon little gems like this. It drives me crazy!
The article is from 2007, so the Farm Bill it mentions has already come and gone, but it’s a clear illustration of how broken the American outlook [...]

A computer test for toxins in your brain?
My LLMD is suspicious that part of my brainfog issues stem from chronic neurotoxins. To sniff out the possibility, he asked me to check out ChronicNeurotoxins.com. It’s a site created and run by Dr. Shoemaker, a well-respected doctor and Lyme advocate (not sure if he’s what we would [...]

Friday Link Love for 01.15.10
It’s Friday again already. Man!
I came across a lot of interesting things this week, but there’s on thing that I could use everyone’s help with. I’m about to switch insurances and my wife and I are utterly confused on what to do. We’ve shopped around, but the options are so great. If you have any [...]

NY Times: Ready To Exercise? Check Your Watch
Morning or evening running… which is better?
My running partner, Paul, sent me a link to this article earlier in the week. It’s kind of a typical NY Times exercise article — short and lacking in detail — but it’s still an interesting read. The gist of it centers around the question: Is it better to [...]
Ironman.com: Penzone’s Challenge
Sorry I’ve been out of touch lately. As you may have noticed, I’ve been updating the design of my blog and adding some new features. Web design and photography are what I do for a living so I use this blog as a little bit of a playground for learning and testing new things.

NY Times: The Human Body Is Built For Distance
There’s an interesting blurb of an article in the NY Times this week on why humans are so good at running — The Human Body Is Built For Distance. It barely scratches the surface of the subject, but it’s a fair overview.
