Where the cloud over how to eat started...

From Oat Bran to Omega-3 the age of nutriantism is upon us. From the National Academy of Science's 1982 report on nutrients, the "Food Industry" has been ever evolving to "produce" the best foods for you. Now it is time to unveil the truth about how the government has manipulated and disordered Americans' view on what is healthy to make room for those companies which profit from this confusion. The time is now to start eating real food and stop eating processed designed nutrients, because for once we should believe that we don't know everything about what foods contain, and the 17,000 new food products produced each year are NOT "better" for us. Stick to what your great great grandma ate and you will be healthier.

This is one of the most informative and convincing articles I have come across as to where we went wrong and what you can to do fix it starting today; it is verbose but it will be well worth your time.

So start by becoming informed through logical argument: Read Unhappy Meals by Michael Pollan

Oh life... what will you bring next?

Wow, being 22 and getting ready to graduate in December, having a long term goal that will not support you fully nor work with a full time job is all draining on the sprit and hard to imagine how it will all work out.

I guess this should be the best part of life, not being tied down with a family or stuck in a job because of a family, just a time to enjoy all the opportunities that one can dream of. Boy I only wish I could relax and enjoy the ride.

Burnaby Six - Day Two

Image
Photo Courtesy www.burnabysixday.com Day two was much better than day one in terms of the shock to my body. Day one was an extreme shock to the system but night two felt closer to a normal night of racing. Unfortunately, the world cup racers are still destroying us on the big gears. We are riding a 88in gear because the U-25 races are restricted to no bigger than this gear. Where as the world cup racers are used to riding between a 90 and 96in gear in the one day world cup madison races. We still believe that six day racing is a different game and thus the legs survive the six consecutive days much better when you start out on the small gear. So we will stick to trying to find our track spin, which is very important when trying to keep up on a smaller gear, as the big gears keep winding it up and taking laps. However the signs of some tired legs are slowly appearing, and we can only hope that by the end we will be able to climb our way back up to an honorable placing. Updates in...
