Stupid expensive. I like the bulk section. You can get a good variety of things here that you can't find somewhere else, I guess, if you live in a small town. Luckily we have co-ops, Trader Joes, Aldi, etc where I am so I don't ever have to rely on WF. I used to eat their hot bar and pizza every day. Loved the wine bar until they RAISED the prices. Why would you raise prices on $5 glasses of wine in the middle of a grocery store? I'm not paying $6-7 to drink under fluorescent lights with shopping carts bumping into me! Such a shame- it used to be the best secret deal!
My friends and I jokingly call this "Whole Foods, Whole Paycheck" because it is so expensive, but I truly believe that it's one of those things that you get what you pay for-- high quality, sustainable, organic food that is good for you. Their produce has the best selection I've ever seen and many of their hair/skincare items are cruelty free. I think it's certainly possible to shop here even on a tight budget, as long as you're willing to put in some extra time and research. The staff is super knowledgeable and helpful (at least in Seattle, where I'm from), too!
I live for my weekly Whole Foods shopping trips. Every Whole Foods is different (separate management and they carry different products) but overall you know you can go there with whatever diet you are on, and eat well. They have an abundance of organic meat and produce (labeled accordingly), grass fed meat (which is hard to come by), and I love that they label the meat according to how free-range it is. They are helping you to make choices about what will work for you. I love their new coupon app as well- I've already saved over $15 with it.
My family and I have been trying to eat a more healthy, vegetarian/vegan whole food diet. We visited this store for the first time over the weekend, and we loved it. This store makes it much easier to shop for these more wholesome foods, and there is less temptation for processed junk foods. It is a little bit expensive, but definitely worth it for certain products. We will be shopping at this store from now on along with our usual grocery store, because they do have some things that you can find at your usual grocer for a lower price.
It is big. It is bright. It is amazingly well-staffed. It has bountiful freebies. It has a (rough count) bajillion types of my favorite things: not just kombucha, but fancy algae kombucha, and chia-drinks and raw kvass and ALL THE THINGS I LIKE! Other advantages: the take-away options are plentiful, and the cold and hot salad bars are great, as is the bright seating area for people who wanna buy-and-nosh. There's also a new bar area (BAR AREA!) with beers on tap and burgers and pizzas.
I would have given 5 stars but because of the price it gets a 4 but everything else gets a 5.i love going to whole foods even just to look or buy a slice of pizza.the desserts are so good and I'm the summer you can order food from outside ,the ice cream is a good deal and so is the pizza and sandwiches.basicly all the food made to go ,the pricing is not that bad ,it's just the rest like I wouldn't shop there but I would eat/drink there.the workers are super nice too!!!
Whole Foods is my absolute favorite grocery store. There is the name "whole paycheck" people give it, but I have found for fresh foods like veggies and meat it is significantly cheaper than other grocery stores. Of course specialty foods are going to be more expensive but it's like that anywhere. I like that they label all the foods that are fair-trade, non-GMO, organic, gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, etc. because it makes me more aware of what I am buying.
I love the variety of healthy food and inclusion of local products at Whole Foods! No two stores are the same and it's always fun to browse around and try new things. The prepared food, although delicious, can get pretty expensive. It is my favorite store to look around in and grab a few healthy things or some lunch. But if I need to stock up on a lot of food, I usually go somewhere cheaper.
I LOVE Whole Foods. They are a great company that is great to work for. My job is right next to a Whole Foods and I tend to go there on my break more than I should. They have great options from cosmetics to food. I would definitely recommend Whole Foods if you can get there! The only downside is the price, but I'd rather spend more money on good food that I know will work with my body!
Whole foods is great in it's insane variety and range of products. Healthy, natural, organic foods are in abundance-- both packaged and fresh. It isn't exactly what I would call affordable.. it's pretty pricey for just everyday shopping. However, if you're looking for something specific or something you haven't been able to find somewhere else, Whole Foods can really come in handy.

Phyto.clinic (www.phyto.clinic) originally developed Curare healing gel to heal the skin of burn victims. It is a gel made from concentrated Aloe Vera juice, Saffron, and Saffron oil fused with 32 hand-picked herbs. Curare healing gel contains more than 40% Acemannan – the active ingredient of Aloe barbadensis (the Aloe Vera plant). The picture above shows pure Aloe vera being extracted. The picture below shows Curare healing gel.
Below is a sample of Curare healing gel, a thicker gel with visible streaks of Saffron.
Patients report a positive reaction when they apply Curare healing gel to their skin. The strongest demand for Curare healing gel is from people using it. We often get asked, “Why does the Aloe Vera I buy from the local drug store store not feel so good?” Well, Bloomberg answered that question today. The bulk of Aloe Vera sold in the United States is NOT Aloe Vera. It is synthetic maltodextrose or maltodextrin made in a factory. Most likely in China.

A continuing chorus of condemnations have come in related to the deaths of well over 100 people in Egypt during clashes between pro and anti-military forces in the aftermath of demonstrations on July 26.
Meanwhile, the Egyptian army has launched a campaign in the Sinai in response to attack on soldiers in the Peninsula.
Demonstrations also occurred in neighboring Tunisia during and after the funeral of opposition figure Mohamed Brahmi who was assassinated on July 25. Brahmi was a leader in the Popular Front party which has been critical of the current government in Tunis.
Demonstrators have been calling for the resignation of the current Ennahda party dominated government.
Elections are underway in the West African state of Mali amid the occupation led by thousands of French troops and allied African soldiers. There are 27 candidates contesting the vote while the country has undergone tremendous upheaval over the last two years resulting largely from the destabilization of the region due to the imperialist war against Libya.
Finally, a bomb blast has struck the Turkish embassy in the Horn of Africa nation of Somalia. Turkey has been supporting the U.S.-backed Somalia Federal Government which is bolstered by Pentagon and Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) spy and drone stations as well as 17,500 allied troops from various regional states.

From the original Pepusch-Gay politico-social satire of 1728 through to the Brecht-Weill variation 200 years later, the themes and mock-heroics of "The Beggar's Opera" translate seamlessly into "Die Dreigroschenoper". "The Threepenny Opera" takes to the stage once more in a new touring production by Peter Rowe and Jenny Sealey.
Talawa Theatre Company makes an interesting decision in reviving and touring this classic but little-known Errol John play. Set in recently independent 1950s Trinidad, we are given a West Indian kitchen-sink drama –a verandah-front drama, given the set – that draws us back to that period.

Voters in cities and states across the country are turning to ranked choice voting to give themselves - and future generations - better options. That’s what Alexis W. of Maine shared with us.
"It’s important that my son knows his voice always matters – that he does have a say in a democracy that is of the people, by the people, and for the people. That’s why I gathered, sorted, and filed thousands of petitions for ranked choice voting over the past several months. Ranked choice voting won’t fix all of the problems with our politics, but it will put more power back in the hands of voters. It will make politicians more accountable to people by encouraging candidates to appeal to more voters to win elections."

LONDON (Reuters) – The Bank of England would probably need to raise interest rates faster than investors expect if Britain manages a smooth exit from the European Union, though Brexit’s implications for the BoE remain unclear, rate-setter Michael Saunders said.
Britain is due to leave the EU, its main trading partner, in little more than four months’ time and Prime Minister Theresa May is struggling to get her Conservative Party behind the withdrawal deal she has hammered out with Brussels.
Saunders said a Brexit deal would boost Britain’s economy and probably justify further increases in rates.
“My own hunch is that, conditioned on our Brexit assumptions, capacity pressures will probably build somewhat faster than envisaged in our latest Inflation Report projections, reinforcing upward pressure on pay growth,” he said in a speech to business leaders in Bath, southwest England.
“In this case, we would probably need to return to something like a neutral stance rather earlier than implied by the current yield curve.”
Financial markets only fully price in the possibility of the next BoE rate hike for the end of 2019.
Saunders was one of the BoE’s earliest advocates for its gradual push to raise borrowing costs away from their all-time lows, which started in November last year.
However, he warned it was hard to be sure that higher rates would be needed in the event of a smooth Brexit because the inflation pressure from stronger economic growth could be offset by the disinflationary effects of a rise in sterling.
“It is unclear whether it would be appropriate to tighten monetary policy more or less than implied by the current yield curve, or indeed not adjust policy at all, or to loosen,” he said in his speech, most of which dealt with the demographic challenge to Britain’s economy in the decades ahead.
It was also hard to tell what the BoE would need to do if Britain left the EU with no transition deal, he added.
“The net effect would probably be higher inflation and lower growth, and it may be hard to tell in real time whether any weakness in growth exceeds the deterioration in potential growth,” he said. “The monetary policy implications could go in either direction.”
BoE Governor Mark Carney and other top officials have also previously warned investors not to assume they would cut rates in the event of a no-deal Brexit shock to Britain’s economy.

Over 50% of UK universities use Vegware’s eco packaging. With the support of Vegware, you can up your recycling rates, lower your carbon footprint and communicate your sustainability to students.
As one of the world’s leading universities, the University of Cambridge aims for excellence in everything it does. In November 2015, the University’s catering services switched to Vegware’s compostable foodservice packaging in order to go zero waste.
- 7 catering services
- 6,500 sales transactions a day
- 1,500 departmental events a year
Compostable packaging: the key to zero waste in catering
Before changing to Vegware, the University of Cambridge experienced high levels of contamination in their recycling streams. Recycling conventional food packaging is challenging due to the mix of different materials and food. Most food packaging inevitably destined for landfill or incineration.
All of Vegware’s packaging is made from plants, not plastic, and designed to be recycled with food waste. This eliminates the issues typical of conventional packaging recycling – all the packaging goes into the food waste bin, and there’s no need to separate, sort or clean.
Vegware’s environmental team helped the University of Cambridge identify the right collector and processing facility for their used compostable packaging and food waste. The University staff had demanded food waste collections for years, but it hadn’t proved viable due to the relatively low volumes produced. Introducing Vegware raised the volumes of compostable waste and allowed collections to begin at a number of sites.
Communication is the key to ensuring an organisation as big as the University of Cambridge goes zero waste. Vegware ran a number of Green Day communication events, engaging staff and students with posters and a ‘waste sorting challenge’. We also created bespoke bin signage to show exactly what goes in each bin – ensuring low levels of contamination at the composting facility.
Engagement was then rolled out more widely by the University’s Environment and Energy Section, who ran a ‘spotlight on waste’ month, visiting a number of departments to talk about the issue of waste and about the new Vegware initiative. Vegware and related waste issues were also featured in monthly newsletters and in communications with the Environment and energy coordinators network.
The University of Cambridge is the first in the UK to implement this zero waste approach to foodservice. The Vegware scheme has provided a platform to promote the University’s sustainability aspirations. The University has found it’s the perfect conversation starter to engage staff on environmental sustainability and to act as a talking point around the issue of waste and recycling. The work has also received recognition by being shortlisted for a 2016 Green Gown Award.
Vegware are continuing their work with the University’s Environment and Energy Section to ensure the scheme continues to be a success. Happily, other departments and colleges within the university are following suit!
Vegware Co2 Eco Audits
By switching to Vegware’s compostable packaging, every month the University Catering service:
- Saves 1.5 tonnes of carbon
- Saves 710 kilos of virgin materials
- Composts 1.5 tonnes of used packaging
“The University Catering Service’s commitment to sustainability contributes to enhancing the staff and student experience, and Vegware is a key part of this. The consideration of greater sustainability throughout the food chain
inside the University helps encourage positive lifestyle changes outside of it for both students and staff.”
- University Catering Manager
Love Food Hate Waste have come up with a lot of useful information for students. Feel free to share the below, it might even be useful to you if your younglings have just left for university.
When you move into a new kitchen, check that the fridge temperature is below 5 degrees. This can extend the life of many foods such as chicken, fish and salad by an extra three days. Raw food needs to be stored in clean, sealed containers on the bottom shelf to prevent contamination. In fact, most food will stay fresher for longer if it is kept in its original packaging or in a loosely tied bag. Leftovers need to be covered and then eaten within two days – cling film or reusing takeaway containers with their close fitting lids are perfect for this. The exception is cooked rice which should be eaten within 24 hours. Fridge food that is coming up to its use by date needs to be eaten or frozen. If you find food date labels confusing, why not print off the LFHW date label infographic and stick it on the fridge?
Old Mother Hubbard
Just imagine you have moved from a home that has a good stock of all sorts of food in the cupboard, including those spices, sauces and condiments that you don’t use often. If find yourself in a new place where the cupboard is bare, where to you start? Love Food Hate Waste has compiled suggested storecupboard essentials on the LFHW website. These are really useful items to have in stock as they can be used to create a meal, a snack or be combined with leftovers – especially if the shops are shut, or when the budget is tight. These items are likely to have a ‘best before date’ on them which means that they should be safe to eat after that date, they just might not be at their best. This means that many can be safely left in the cupboard or taken home with you at the end of term, they don’t need to be binned automatically. Keep them well sealed, cool and away from direct sunlight.
Whether you are on an academic timetable, or are adjusting to a new work routine, one of the key ways to help you save money is to plan meals and menus.
It’s not as onerous as its sounds, there is even an online ready madetwo-week meal plannerfor both meat eaters and veggies to help get you started. You might like to cook together with new housemates as buying food for four can not only be cheaper, but it can be fun, build friendships and also introduce you to a new recipe repertoire. Getting together to discuss a meal plan for a week will help work out who is cooking, what they will cook but will also work out when meals will not be needed. For example will Friday night have a late night takeaway tradition, or will housemates be missing at the weekends? Use the plan to make ashopping listbut always check the fridge and cupboard before shopping – as you might already have the ingredients in stock.
Special events present visitors and exhibitors with unique networking and business opportunities. They include opportunities to arrange one-to-one meetings with innovation teams and buyers from retailers, manufacturers and ingredient suppliers plus industry awards and educational workshops.

Impact data from the first 1000 suppliers using the new NetPositive Supplier Development online tool
Data is emerging from the sector-leading Supplier Engagement Tool, which is being spearheaded TUCO and three other national purchasing consortia for Higher Education (North Eastern Universities Purchasing Consortium, North Western Universities Purchasing Consortium and Southern Universities Purchasing Consortium) and utilised by 27 UK universities.
TUCO along with these organisations have been providing suppliers with access to a free, online tool that helps them create a Sustainability Action Plan for their business. The tool is designed to support and develop the supply chain as part of an ongoing commitment to embedding sustainability in procurement process.
6 months since the launch the first data from the tool is starting to emerge and demonstrates the positive impact suppliers to the HE sector are making in relation to sustainability – and where there is work still to be done!
Food Matters Live 2016 will play host to six themed visitor attractions, bringing to life the learning from the conference and seminars through a series of thought provoking installations and live interactive demonstrations, tastings and talks located within the exhibition floor.
- The Evidence Base
- FEED Sensorium
- Catering for Health
- Growth Lab
- Experimental Café
- Sustainable Food Futures
Food Matters Live is free to attend and welcomes all relevant industry professionals. Register here now.
In July we mentioned our upcoming partnership with Procure Wizard, an online purchase to pay system. This will give TUCO members free of charge use of a digital purchase to pay system as well as access to ‘live pricing’, taking significant costs out of the supply chain.
When Procure Wizard launched in 2011, its goal was to revolutionise the hospitality sector by providing a dynamic online purchasing portal to help modernise the procurement cycle, delivering improved efficiency and reduced costs.
Boasting a high profile client list (including the Gleneagles Hotel, Patisserie Valerie and Liverpool FC) and 10,000 active users, the portal has also recently won a prestigious Queen’s Award for Enterprise in Innovation. TUCO members will be in very good company!
So what does it do? I think we’re all very aware at just how prevalent traditional telephone ordering and paper invoicing is in university catering, making the control of live costs both challenging and time-consuming. Well, Procure Wizard changes all that.
As a result of the new partnership members will enjoy a raft of world-class services including online ordering, recipe/allergen/ingredient analysis and stock management. Users will also be able to integrate the system into their current sales and accounts software.
The beauty of Procure Wizard is that it centralises your procurement function, giving you total control and cuts out human error. The key benefits are total visibility, it gives you a dynamic dashboard of exactly where your business is on any given day, at any specific time, as well as eliminating the risk of human error as once data is keyed, it doesn’t need to be re-entered or repeated. It also gives you access to live delivery data. It’s extremely user-friendly and can help you track your budget expenditure.
Transferring over to the system is a two-stage process. You can log on and order from day one (so getting purchase to pay up and running is quick and simple). Stage two takes more time as it involves the integration of systems and members will need to prioritise the other modules for integration. However Procure Wizard is happy to do this at the pace you dictate. The company is also happy to run members through what is required and to give onsite demonstrations.
I have no doubt that TUCO members who embrace this online option will transform their relationship with suppliers. These are exciting times!
Seafish urges all seafood businesses to get on board for campaign as ties with Tesco, Birds Eye and Hilton Worldwide are announced.
Three major players in seafood have signed up to support Seafood Week, the annual consumer campaign run bySeafishto get more people eating more fish more often.
Joining a series of household names from across the supply chain, retail giant Tesco, Birds Eye, and international hotel network Hilton Worldwide, are the latest to back the eight-day celebration of fish and shellfish.
Following successful participation in last year’s campaign, which generated an estimated £18 million benefit to the seafood industry, Tesco is back on board for 2016. Andrew Haigh, Tesco Buying Manager – Fish, said: “We are very excited to be a part of Seafood Week this year. Seafood offers customers healthy and convenient options and Seafood Week is a fantastic initiative to help showcase this to customers. Earlier this year we also announced a number of measures, in partnership with the Marine Stewardship Council, which means we are sourcing even more of our seafood in a sustainable way.”
Birds Eye has also shown their support by striking a deal with organisers Seafish to become a partner for the campaign. The global brand will benefit from their products being promoted as part of a wider marketing and advertising campaign which aims to encourage people to eat more seafood.
Birds Eye Marketing Director Steve Chantry said: “This will be the first year Birds Eye is involved with the Seafood Week initiative and we’re looking forward to taking part as we encourage Brits to eat more fish at home.
“As a leader in the frozen fish category and a brand that is loved across the UK, our fish heritage is incredibly important to us and to our consumers. This Seafood Week will therefore see the brand working with many of our much-loved fish icons, including fish fingers and the recently returned Captain Birdseye, as we help shoppers create delicious, nutritious meals.”
Hilton Worldwide is supporting the campaign for the second year. Dominique Piquemal, Vice President, Food & Beverage Strategy, Europe, Middle East & Africa, said: “Seafood Week is an excellent opportunity to showcase the very best of seafood to diners and we are delighted to support the initiative again this year.
“Hilton Worldwide has a long term commitment to responsible sourcing and is dedicated to maintaining the highest culinary standards in our hotels. It is critical to include sustainable fishing practices in our sourcing strategy to ensure seafood continues to be available in the future. Seafood is a popular choice with our guests, and with clear MSC labelling now on our menus in nearly 50 hotels in the UK, Netherlands and Belgium, we are giving our guests greater choice with the seafood they choose to enjoy in our hotels.”
Seafish Corporate Relations Director Mel Groundsell welcomed all three brands’ participation and said: “It’s fantastic news that such well-known and well-respected businesses are getting on board for Seafood Week. Like us, these household brands recognise the value of sustainable, healthy seafood and will be helping us get more people eating more of it this October.
“I’d encourage any business involved in the seafood supply chain to get involved - there are great opportunities on offer and the more we work together, the louder that ‘more fish, more often’ message will be.”
Seafood Week will be held from Friday, 7th October to 14th October.
Seafood Week celebrates the delicious taste of fish and shellfish with a different species and dish each day.
Seafood Week (7-14 October) is an eight-day campaign to sing the praises of fish and shellfish in the UK – and remind everyone that fish is the dish! On every day of Seafood Week, a different dish of the day is championed to celebrate the many different ways fish can be cooked and served.
We’ve got eight delicious seafood recipes for you to try – all quick and easy to make and tasting great. So, make the most of Seafood Week by trying out these delicious meals.
Find out more about Seafood Week at www.seafoodweek.co.uk, where you can find loads more recipes and tips about cooking, buying and eating seafood.

Seafish was founded in 1981 by an Act of Parliament and aims to support all sectors of the seafood industry for a sustainable, profitable future. It is the only pan-industry body offering services to all parts of the industry, from the start of the supply chain at catching and aquaculture; through processing, importers, exporters and distributors of seafood right through to restaurants and retailers.
Seafish is funded by a levy on the first sale of seafood landed in the UK. Its services are intended to support and improve the environmental sustainability, efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the industry, as well as promoting sustainably-sourced seafood. These services include technical research and development, responsible sourcing initiatives, economic consulting, market research, industry accreditation, safety training for fishermen and legislative advice.
The Food Matters Live 2016 seminars are structured around eight individual themes and offer visitors an unparalleled peer-to-peer learning opportunity.
They bring together 300 expert speakers from across academia, health, nutrition and the food and drink industry to provide insight, innovation and ideas for change while making the important connections between food, health, nutrition and a sustainable food system.
The seminars are free to attend and available on a first come, first served basis. Register to attend.
New Year’s Revelation is a report byVegwareandThe Food Waste Networkrevealing the potential barriers, cost implications and other impacts the waste Regulations will have on different types of food businesses.
Following the example of The Hanging Bat, six Edinburgh-based food business sites participated in Vegware’s research, involving a consultation process of an initial attitude and waste survey; waste audit; tailored action plan; and a final attitude survey. Each business’ case study is included.
Results show that before our consultation process, all businesses had little understanding of the incoming waste Regs, and assumed they would face increased costs. We also found further ways to transform initial costs into a long-term saving.
Our report concludes that far from being the cost burden many businesses fear, the Scottish Waste Regs can bring savings for food businesses. Although greater segregation may introduce challenges such as managing space issues, there are solutions to these barriers.

Over 600 organisations will participate in the Food Matters Live 2016 exhibition including: ingredients suppliers; food and drink manufacturers; and foodservice providers. They will be joined by research and academic institutions and will each highlight the important role that every part of the food, drink and nutrition sector plays in developing healthy and 'better for you' food and drink.

Financial firms in the European Union will have to demonstrate how quickly they can recover from a cyberattack as dependence increases on cloud giants like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and IBM, the EU said on Monday.
Regulators are concerned about the extent to which banks, insurers, and financial institutions shift crucial processes and operations to just a handful of cloud platforms. According to authorities, a malfunction at one cloud vendor could disrupt services at multiple financial institutions.
To address the issue, Brussels has been working on the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). The EU Council, representing the EU’s 27 member states, recently announced that the DORA has been officially approved.
Preparing for cyberattacks
Banks and other financial institutions already have extensive strategies for IT security. Still, more is required to ensure their resilience in the face of significant disruptions, according to Zbynek Stanjura, finance minister of the Czech Republic, which currently holds the EU presidency.
Stanjura said that the EU’s financial industry will be better prepared to perform at all times due to the criteria of the DORA. The regulations will apply to both financial institutions and ‘critical’ third-party providers of cloud-based services.
EU securities, insurance and banking regulators will draft technical regulations to implement the new legislation. The European Parliament has already granted its approval. The law will go into effect toward the end of 2024.
Britain, which is no longer a member of the EU, has its own take on the DORA. In June, government officials said that regulators would be granted the authority to select which outsourcing services would be subject to direct supervision by the Bank of England and the Financial Conduct Authority.

One of the most famous characteristics that cats have is their finicky personality.
One minute, they’re on your lap, and then all of a sudden, they’re clawing, biting, and then running away. What gives? Why do they act so loving one minute and ferocious or fearful, the next? Carry on reading to find out!
Ever wonder “why does my cat follow me then run away?”
I mean they’re all lovey dovey following you around the house
Then next minute
They’ve gone within a flash!
What’s the reason for this odd behavior?
Have you done something wrong?
Or is it just how cats are?
You’ll discover everything in this article
Let’s get started…

Why Does My Cat Run Away From Me Sometimes?
While cats are very social, you may find that there are sometimes when your cat just doesn’t want to be bothered.
We’ve all seen those videos of a cat suddenly bursting out of their owner’s arms or attaching their claws to their faces.
Are you running up to your cat, all hyper and overbearing?
This may be why your cat is running away from you.
Cats are sensitive and like other animals, they can easily feed off our emotions
If your cat senses anger or even intense excitement, he runs from you because he doesn’t know how to handle the vibes you’re throwing off.
Instead, try taking a deep breath and talking softly to your cat, approaching him slowly.
That way, it’s not a threat.
If you adopted your cat, there’s a chance that he’s acting this way due to mistreatment or it could be that he was never properly socialized with humans.
This is quite common in barn cats and feral cats that are rescued.
This will take a bit of time and a lot of effort to gain their trust, specifically adults and older cats.
But trust me
Once you gain your cats trust – It will all be worth it

Why Does My Cat Jump On Me Then Run Away?
You may think that there may be something wrong, but don’t worry.
It’s a totally normal thing for cats to jump or pounce on their owners and for the most part, it’s benevolent and playful.
The main reason for this behavior is that he simply wants your attention.
When your cat jumps on you or pounces on you, this could mean that he wants you to play with him.
He’s pouncing to get you to playfight, as kittens will often do to each other.
If your cat wants to play then make sure you give your furbaby that time
It will increase the bond between the two of you
Here’s an article I wrote which you should definitely check out
He could also be telling you that it’s time for dinner or to go outside in a less vocal way than usual.
This, of course, would depend on where your cat runs off to.
Why Does My Cat Follow Me When I Go Outside?
It’s an honor to be chosen as a cat’s “person.”
It’s not the most famous of kitty qualities, but cats can be very social with a chosen person or two.
When you go outside and are followed by your feline friend, this is because he loves you and trusts you.
It’s a sign of affection.
Cats are very curious about their environment and the people or other animals inside of it.
They take interest in what their housemates are doing, especially if it’s something different or out of routine.
Because you spend more time with your cat inside, he may also be caught off guard to see you outdoors, which could be the reason why he’s following you.
Another reason that your cat follows you when you go outside is that cats are known to be territorial.
Your yard is your cat’s domain, so if he’s following you around the yard, this could mean he’s making sure that you’re not scoping out the territory for yourself.
He may also be interested in seeing what you’re doing, and if there’s anything in it for him.
What this means is that he may think you’re off to go hunting mice, which is what outdoor cats usually do when they disappear for hours.
Reasons For Cat Following You Then Running Away
Of all the things that cats are known for, one of the most famous is their unpredictable behavior.
This behavior just makes us love them even more
While cats love nothing more than the attention of their owners, some tend to “love and run”, meaning that they aren’t affectionate 100% of the time.
Your cat may run away from you because of something he feels from you, something scary he remembers, or even that he just wants some space and time to be alone.
Another behavior that stems from instincts is their playful ways of getting us to notice them.
This may be because he’s feeling spry and he’s trying to get you to play with him or that he’s trying to tell you something else like wanting to go out.
When you go outside, you may turn to see your cat following right behind you.
There are a few reasons that could be behind this, the first being that he loves you and wants to go where you’re going.
The second reason is that your cat could be feeling curious and territorial.
He may be following you to see what you’re doing in “his domain” and why.
Remember that every cat is different, and they all have pretty complex personalities, just like people!
To be an expert on your cat, the best thing to do is watch him: what he does, where he goes, and his body language.

Flea Control Wantirna South Vic
Insect Control Misconceptions In Wantirna South Discovered
Bug control myths are a typical occurrence. These are 10 insect control myths to watch out for.
1. A Termite Myth
A common misconception about termites is that if you have a concrete structure, you will not have a termite issue. That is far from the truth due to the fact that termites seek out wood wherever they find it. They are small and can find cracks even in concrete or brick and will be able to “dine” on timber even if it is not exposed.
2. Tidy Homes In Wantirna South Do Not Bring In Bugs
Another typical misconception is that cockroaches and bedbugs just live in dirty houses in Wantirna South. They will take up residence in any home if they can find a food source. Bed bugs only need a source of moisture or a percentage of blood and can’t be gotten rid of by home treatments. Even an insect control expert might need to come more than as soon as to remove them.
Cockroaches just need a food source, which can be food put in a trash can and even small scraps of food. They can also remain hidden if they don’t need to come out to discover food. They often select dark areas and stay out of sight as much as possible.
Rodents might find food sources outdoors, however they want a warm, dry place to live. Exactly what could be a much better the home of a mouse or rat than your ceiling cavity, which is warm and dry throughout the year? They are not as easy to eliminate as you may think of, either, and are prolific breeders.
3. Insecticide Misconceptions
One common myth about insecticides is that they must be applied after the sun decreases. Pests exist all the time and you can use insecticides to control them. Nevertheless, control alone won’t eliminate numerous bugs. A whole nest of ants will not come into the house. They can be found in small numbers as well as if you kill the ants you see, more will come later on.
Another myth about termites is that the more you apply, the much better the impact. The reverse may be true since insects can develop a resistance to insecticides. You likewise need to know the right insecticide to utilize for various bugs and ways to use it most effectively.
Insecticides can also be dangerous if utilized irresponsibly. They can even be more unsafe than most pests, which can be annoyances however position no threat to children. Use insecticides moderately and in locations where kids will not be exposed to them. Numerous insect control professionals now use environment-friendly products that are effective but don’t trigger harm to children or grownups.
4. Ultrasonic Repellents And Bug Zappers Work
Really, there is little evidence that ultrasonic pest repellents work in . Ultrasonic repellents deal with the theory that noises beyond the reach of human beings will drive bugs away. Advertising sells these products, however there is no real evidence that they work. Don’t waste your money on ultrasonic repellents
The exact same applies for bug zappers. Mosquitoes are drawn to blood sources and are very good at finding them. They are not drawn in to blue lights and while the occasional mosquito or other flying bugs might face a bug zapper, mosquitoes will still look for your blood, not a bug zapper.
5. Rodents Are Unclean Animals
Rodents can be a problem in Wantirna South and you do not want them in your house, however they are not unclean animals. They really groom themselves continuously and are quite clean. Rats and mice even have different areas they use as “bathrooms” and keep their sleeping rooms neat and neat.
Rodents aren’t drawn in to cheese, either. That is a misconception developed by cartoons. Rodents like sweet things, meat, peanut butter and fatty foods. They will eat cheese, however they do not prefer cheese.
6. Just Call An Insect Control Professional In Wantirna South When You See A Problem
By the time a problem with bugs is visible, it’s past time to deal with the issue. The very best way to make sure pests do not take over your house in Wantirna South is to have routine pest evaluations. Don’t forget to have your house examined for termites, either. Termites can do a lot of damage in a brief amount of time and you may not even know they are in your home.
7. Mosquitoes Come Out At Dawn And Sunset
While it holds true we notice mosquitoes most at dawn, sunset and after dark, they do not stay with a schedule. Mosquitoes can come out at any time and some mosquitoes are active throughout the day. They might be more unsafe than the mosquito bites you get at night. The Zika virus and other infections are frequently spread by a mosquito that just bites throughout the day.
8. When Rodents Eat Poison They Go Outdoors To Die
This is a common misconception, however it’s not real. It usually takes four to 10 days for a poison to work. When a rodent consumes poison, it will go where it feels safe and that might remain in your ceiling cavity. It will die a sluggish death and most likely will not scurry around, but you will know later when it begins to smell.
9. Buy A Cat To Keep Rodents Away
If you do not feed your cat, it will naturally search for food sources and rodents are a typical source of food for wild cats. There are 2 problems with this theory. We always feed cats, so they are not as nervous to chase after and kill rodents. They may toy with them however probably will not kill them. The other issue is that rodents hide in places where cats can’t get to them.
10. Insect Activity Disappears After Treatment
This is another bug control misconception that has to be uncovered One treatment may not be enough to get rid of insects. Pests in general breed and you may have more than one source of bugs. Their eggs will not respond to most treatments and after they hatch, the problem will return. You might need more than one treatment to get rid of an issue with many types of bugs.
Pest Control Myths Revealed
There are numerous typical myths about pests in the house. These are just the leading 10, but others exist. For example, some people think a great way to obtain rid of ants is to pour boiling water on them. The water will eliminate the ants it comes in contact with, however even if you put boiling water down an ant hill, it will only kill the ants on the surface. The water will cool long prior to it reaches the nest.
Home solutions don’t always work and sometimes they can backfire on you. Did you buy poison to kill rodents, thinking they would go outside to die? That is a typical misconception you will find out about after the rodent passes away and you smell its remains. Do you believe spraying more insecticide will be more effective? That’s another myth that can backfire on you.
Below is a a list of parasites, insects and also rodents located in the local Wantirna South location that we can treat or remove.
- Ants: carpenter ants, moisture ants, house ants, sidewalk ants
- Bees, wasps & hornets: hornets, bumble bees, paper wasps, honey bees, yellow jackets.
- Blood feeders: bed bugs, fleas
- Cockroaches: german roaches, oriental roaches
- Fabric pests: clothes moths, silverfish, carpet beetles, webbing moths

- Rodents: house computer mice, deer rats, roofing rats
- Spiders: daddy long legs, redbacks, funnel webs, house spiders
- Termites: dampwood termites, subterranean termites
The most efficient way to get rid of pests is to contact a bug control expert in Wantirna South who knows the misconceptions and the truths about typical bugs. We have techniques to obtain rid of them permanently, but they may need to concern your house more than when to obtain rid of some insects. Instead of trust the myths you’ve heard, trust the experts and have an insect free home.


THE TATA NANO MAKES HISTORY USING DIGITAL MANUFACTURING
On January 10, 2008, India's Tata Motors unveiled its Nano car. It was an historic moment, because the Nano was the cheapest auto ever made at that time, with a price tag around US $2,500. The Nano joined Ford's Model T as a car within reach of millions of people who previously could not afford one.
Tata Motors started its Nano project in 2003, when a team was charged with creating a car that would cost no more than about US $2,500 without compromising on safety, aesthetics, or value to the customer. It was a Herculean task. Tata met the challenge by using digital manufacturing systems to dramatically shorten the time required to design the new product and bring it to market. The ability to develop and produce new products with many different variations within a very short time span is a key competitive advantage in the automotive ...view middle of the document...
All that changed in July 2005 when Tata Motors switched to digital manufacturing using Dassault Systems' Digital Enterprise Lean Manufacturing Interactive Application (DELMIA). Digital manufacturing automates processes in product design and production engineering planning, enabling Tata to plan manufacturing processes, design plant layouts, and then simulate the repercussions of those plans, including the impact of new manufacturing techniques and changes of products on existing production lines. It provides data to Tata's SAP enterprise resource planning system, which costs out a product, an assembly or a sub-assem¬bly. Digital manufacturing also simulates the movements of people working on the shop floor so that planners can design more efficient work processes. Companies using digital manufacturing can model products and operations and make changes to them on the computer. This cut down on the use of expensive physical prototypes, which must be rebuilt each time a design changes.
According to T.N. Umama¬heshwaran, who headed Tata Motors' digital manufacturing program, "We can't imagine what would take place at a new plant if we did not have DM Tools. Two years before the first stone of a plant is laid, we already start working on it. We don't even know where the site will be, but we know what it will take to make 750 cars a day."
As a result of adopting digi¬tal manufacturing, Tata Motors has reduced time-to-market for new passenger cars by at least six months. The company can now rapidly identify areas of "work overload" and constraints while quickly adapting assembly lines to accommodate multiple automobile variations. The ability to simulate facilities and processes has reduced the cost of physical rework. Manufacturing and facilities planning now take 30 percent less time, with a 20 percent reduction in the cost of the manufacturing planning process. For certain functions, the time to design an entire process end-to-end has been reduced by over 50 percent.

Wiz Khalifa isn't just a fixture on radio with his breakout hit "Black and Yellow," the upstart rapper has also been lighting up the gossip blogs courtesy of his association with Kanye West's ex, Amber Rose.
The Pittsburgh star recently brought Rose out onstage with him during a Milwaukee performance and the two trade romantic messages on Twitter. So, when the lanky Atlantic Records artist appeared on Funkmaster Flex's radio show on Monday, how did he characterize his relationship with Rose, whom he revealed has even met his mother?
"Currently cool," Wiz said.
He explained that the pair both travel often, so they often cross paths. The two were in his hometown two weekends ago during the AFC Championship game when Wiz performed prior to the Steelers' win over the New York Jets. That's when Rose met Mama Khalifa.
Wiz's former flame, "Bad Girls Club" member Natalie Nunn, put him and Rose on blast earlier this month, claiming that she and the "Black and Yellow" spitter had a burgeoning relationship. Wiz dismissed Nunn's story as "wild," but admits the pair had been seeing each other.
"She was cool, you know," he told Funkmaster Flex.
Last week, Wiz announced his new album's title and release date on Twitter. Rolling Papers is due March 29, while Wiz's next single, "Roll Up," hit the Web last week too. The track is slated to premiere on iTunes on February 8.

Paperback. 292 pages. Dimensions: 8.3in. x 5.2in. x 0.7in.Thomas Wentworth Higginson (1823-1911) was an American minister, author, abolitionist, and soldier. He graduated from Harvard in 1841, and was a schoolmaster for two years. He then studied theology at the Harvard Divinity School. Higginson was active in the American Abolitionism movement during the 1840s and 1850s, identifying himself with disunion and militant abolitionism. During the Civil War, He served as colonel of the First South Carolina Volunteers, the first federally authorized African-American regiment, from 1862 to 1864. Following the war, Higginson devoted much of the rest of his life to fighting for the rights of freed slaves, women and other disenfranchised peoples. He described his Civil War experiences in Army Life in a Black Regiment (1869). He also contributed to the preservation of Negro Spirituals by copying dialect verses and music he heard sung around the regiments campfires.

When you’re eating the foods that get you there (more on that in a minute), your body can enter a state of ketosis in one to three days, she adds. During the diet, the majority of calories you consume come from fat, with a little protein and very little carbohydrates. Ketosis also happens if you eat a very low-calorie diet — think doctor-supervised, only when medically recommended diets of 600 to 800 total calories.
Being in optimal ketosis for a prolonged period of time (say, a month) will ensure that you experience the maximal hormonal effect from eating a low-carb diet. If this doesn’t result in noticeable weight loss, you can be certain that too many carbs are NOT part of your weight issue and not the obstacle to your weight loss. There are, in fact, other causes of obesity and being overweight. The next three tips in this series might help you.
“It came to another frustration point that medication really isn’t helping,” Lofton says. “I had tried many other things, like a weight loss program. I tried looking into bariatric surgery, and was very frustrated that all these things — like watching my food intake and my servings, 60 grams (of carbs) per meal — all of that wasn’t really making a difference.”
In the 21 subjects the successfully completed the study, scientists observed a 16% decrease in Hemoglobin Ac from baseline to week 16.  Subjects experienced an average decrease in body weight of 8.7 kg (19.2 lbs.).  Additionally, their average blood glucose levels decreased a total of 16.6% and their average triglyceride levels decreased 41.6%.
Upon starting the diet, some patients report symptoms like fatigue, headaches, and muscle aches. However, these short-lived symptoms are, in fact, a sign that the diet is working, and the body is switching over from burning glucose as fuel to burning fat. This transition involves upregulating certain enzymes and down-regulating others; it is a profound shift for the human body that can have uncomfortable symptoms. However, these side effect usually last only 3-4 weeks. They can be ameliorated in most cases, by drinking several cups of bouillion broth during the day until the transition is completed.15
In addition, on the day the diet was initiated, diabetes medications were reduced – generally, insulin doses were halved, and sulfonylurea doses were halved or discontinued. Due to the possible diuretic effects of the diet soon after initiation, diuretic medications were discontinued if of low dosage (up to 25 mg of hydrochlorothiazide or 20 mg of furosemide) or halved if of higher dosage. Participants were also instructed to take a standard multivitamin and drink 6–8 glasses of water daily, and were encouraged to exercise aerobically for 30 minutes at least three times per week.
Use fat as a lever. We’ve been taught to fear fat, but don’t! Both keto and low carb are high fat diets. Fat is our source of energy as well as satiety. The key to understand, though, is that fat is a lever on a low carb or keto diet. Carbs and protein stay constant, and fat is the one you increase or decrease (push the lever up or down) to gain or lose weight, respectively. So if your goal is weight loss, eat enough fat to be satisfied, but there’s no need to “get your fats in” once you’re satisfied.
The ketogenic diet reduces seizure frequency by more than 50% in half of the patients who try it and by more than 90% in a third of patients. Three-quarters of children who respond do so within two weeks, though experts recommend a trial of at least three months before assuming it has been ineffective. Children with refractory epilepsy are more likely to benefit from the ketogenic diet than from trying another anticonvulsant drug. There is some evidence that adolescents and adults may also benefit from the diet.
1- Eliminate fast foods. For many of us living in America, this is one of the tougher adjustments and may take some time. To start with, try swapping a fast-food meal with a homemade one. For example, if it’s chicken wings you crave, make them Greek-style like in this recipe! Or if it’s sweet potato fries (my personal guilty pleasure), try baking them in olive oil with a sprinkle of Mediterranean spices like in this recipe. And So on!
What about fruits and vegetables? All fruits are rich in carbs, but you can have certain fruits (usually berries) in small portions. Vegetables (also rich in carbs) are restricted to leafy greens (such as kale, Swiss chard, spinach), cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, asparagus, bell peppers, onions, garlic, mushrooms, cucumber, celery, and summer squashes. A cup of chopped broccoli has about six carbs.
Because the ketogenic diet alters the body's metabolism, it is a first-line therapy in children with certain congenital metabolic diseases such as pyruvate dehydrogenase (E1) deficiency and glucose transporter 1 deficiency syndrome, which prevent the body from using carbohydrates as fuel, leading to a dependency on ketone bodies. The ketogenic diet is beneficial in treating the seizures and some other symptoms in these diseases and is an absolute indication. On the other hand, it is absolutely contraindicated in the treatment of other diseases such as pyruvate carboxylase deficiency, porphyria and other rare genetic disorders of fat metabolism. A person with a disorder of fatty acid oxidation is unable to metabolise fatty acids, which replace carbohydrates as the major energy source on the diet. On the ketogenic diet, their body would consume its own protein stores for fuel, leading to ketoacidosis, and eventually coma and death.
Both the Mediterranean and DASH diets are plant-focused diets, rich in fruits and vegetables, nuts, with low-fat and non-fat dairy, lean meats, fish, and poultry, mostly whole grains, and heart healthy fats. Perfect together. You fill up on delicious fruits and vegetables, paired up with protein-rich foods to quench your hunger. This makes a plan that is so easy to follow. Learn about the Mediterranean diet and the DASH diet plans and browse sample menus.
In the 1960s, it was discovered that medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) produce more ketone bodies per unit of energy than normal dietary fats (which are mostly long-chain triglycerides). MCTs are more efficiently absorbed and are rapidly transported to the liver via the hepatic portal system rather than the lymphatic system. The severe carbohydrate restrictions of the classic ketogenic diet made it difficult for parents to produce palatable meals that their children would tolerate. In 1971, Peter Huttenlocher devised a ketogenic diet where about 60% of the calories came from the MCT oil, and this allowed more protein and up to three times as much carbohydrate as the classic ketogenic diet. The oil was mixed with at least twice its volume of skimmed milk, chilled, and sipped during the meal or incorporated into food. He tested it on twelve children and adolescents with intractable seizures. Most children improved in both seizure control and alertness, results that were similar to the classic ketogenic diet. Gastrointestinal upset was a problem, which led one patient to abandon the diet, but meals were easier to prepare and better accepted by the children. The MCT diet replaced the classic ketogenic diet in many hospitals, though some devised diets that were a combination of the two.
The comments defending the keto diet suggest that the individuals are successfully using the keto diet to help them maintain a healthy weight and a healthier A1C level. The individuals also suggest that they view it as a way of life rather than a diet. This is good news for many of us who are facing the question of whether it will be helpful and necessary to reduce carbohydrate intake to keto producing levels in order to halt or reverse the onset of type II diabetes. I think like those individuals, Tami is speaking from her own personal experience where she had success losing weight, but had difficulty maintaining the keto diet long-term. I am sure that though you have been successful, you can understand that there are many who might find it difficult to maintain. I too have been given very bad guidance by Medical Doctors who lean on old Med School information to practice medicine rather than continuing to broaden their knowledge base and learn more about nutrition. I cannot get back the 20+ years of suffering with a debilitating disease that could have been cured because my doctors were not well informed or willing to listen to information that disagreed with their limited knowledge base. Those years are gone and the destruction to my body is not reversible. So I understand the anger you feel toward a system that isn’t working in the best interest of the patient. But I think that expressing anger toward those who disagree with our personal experience, is not solving the problem. Hopefully we can change the ADA guidelines by respectfully urging them to reconsider their position based on the sheer volume of the comments they receive from successful people like you, who are living the keto diet lifestyle and living better. I commend you for becoming your own best health advocates. Thanks for your encouragement and your passion. And thanks to Tami as well for sharing her personal experience and the information she had collected. We all have to be true to what we believe and we all have a right to come to our own conclusions. It is good to know that there are success stories out there. I wish you all good health and continued success. I also hope that one day medical training will do a much better job of preparing doctors to become their patient’s best advocates, actively learning and searching for cures rather than treating symptoms in ways that cause even more disease to develop. The system is failing so many of us.
Is Keto Worth It? Know The Health Benefits And Risks Before Going On A Keto DietThe ketogenic diet helps to bring your body into a metabolic state which is known as the ketosis. Ketosis occurs when the body has run out of its glycogen (which is basically sugar) stores so it needs to find another source of fuel. By: DoctorNDTV Updated: Dec 8, 2018 10:12 IST 4-Min Read SHARES The primary goal of the ketogenic diet is weight loss.
Rich in low-starch vegetables, fruit, healthy fats (mostly from olives and olive oil), nuts, seeds, whole grains, legumes, and fish, the Mediterranean diet eschews simple sugars and refined starches and is low in red meat. Interested in embarking on the diet for yourself? Read through to see a Mediterranean diet shopping list, what it's like to be on the diet, and why it's so easy to follow.
Other down sides: There’s an initial period where your body is adjusting to its new carb-free existence, and many people experience symptoms like fatigue, brain fog and nausea for a few weeks. You also end up deficient in important micronutrients, like folate, calcium and potassium, which is why most ketogenic devotees recommend taking multivitamins. Personally, I recommend my clients follow a diet that in its ideal state provides all of the nutrients you need through real, whole foods.
Tammy, just because someone follows a keto diet doesn’t mean they can’t have their sweet treats. There are dozens of websites with hundreds of keto sweet treats and “fat bombs” made with stevia or other natural non-caloric sweeteners which will not raise blood sugars. One of my favorites is Keto Mocha Mousse https://www.ruled.me/keto-mocha-mousse/ which has 5 g net carbs per servings. We don’t have to be deprived on keto.
WOW. I guess I must be a very special, highly motivated patient then. I, of course, would never have said that about myself. My high motivation is trying to get over the hatred of food that being Diabetic gave me. I don’t feel that way anymore, and am finally happy cooking, again. (My doctor DID tell me exactly that, BTW. Even to the extent of telling me to not include the tsp of agave that I was having in my coffee once a day because sugar is sugar.)
The low-carb diet induces ''nutritional ketosis," Dr. Saslow tells EndocrineWeb, which is not the same as ketoacidosis. Ketones are a chemical your body produces when you burn stored fat; if you are on a low-carb diet you may be ''in ketosis.'' Ketoacidosis is different; it is a life-threatening condition in which levels of ketones and blood sugar are dangerously high, which may occur in people who have poorly controlled diabetes.
Meat products make up a big part of the keto diet, but experts stress the importance of choosing quality. "Since the keto diet is based a lot on animal proteins, it's important to buy organic poultry and grass-fed, organic beef," says Aimee Aristotelous, RD. "Not only do organic selections help with limiting environmental toxins, but grass-fed options of red meats even change the composition of fats." The result, she explains, is that your body is able to better absorb those healthy fats.
My principal hope in this article is to provide journalists with a resource to do what basic journalism demands, namely to ensure that stories are scientifically balanced and accurate. At the end of this post I provide contacts for some of the credentialed experts who helped me compile this research. Reporters, please seek out these or other low-carb diet experts so you can provide accurate, up-to-date information for your readers.
Calcium and vitamin C team up well to boost metabolism, and broccoli is just one of several healthy foods that contain both nutrients. What sets broccoli apart from the others, however, is that the green veggie also contains kind of fiber that’s been shown to increase the digestion, absorption and storage of food, also known as the thermic effect of food or TEF. A revved up metabolism combined with an increased TEF is a match made in weight loss heaven!
What the expert says: ‘Atkins will result in quick weight loss as the body uses all the carbohydrate stores adults tend to have. But limiting carbs will mean you could be lacking in fibre and b vitamins like niacin, thiamine and b6. Aside from cutting out a major food group, Atkins tends to result in eating a lot of food that’s high in saturated fats, which is linked to raised cholesterol and heart disease.’
Participants were recruited from the Durham Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) outpatient clinics. Inclusion criteria were age 35–75 years; body mass index (BMI) >25 kg/m2; and fasting serum glucose >125 mg/dL or hemoglobin A1c >6.5% without medications, or treatment with oral hypoglycemic agents (OHA) and/or insulin. Exclusion criteria were evidence of renal insufficiency, liver disease, or unstable cardiovascular disease by history, physical examination, and laboratory tests. All participants provided written informed consent approved by the institutional review board. No monetary incentives were provided.
“Unlike many popular diets, there’s really not a huge focus on eliminating starches,” Srinath says. “What most studies have found is that dieting is really about sustainability—so the people who lose the most weight are those who are able to maintain a diet and keep up with it," she says. "A big issue with a lot of the low-carb diets out there is that it’s really, really hard to limit carbs completely. That’s why I think DASH is more palatable to people." Yaaas, carbs!
The Mediterranean diet has long been recognized as one of the healthiest and most delicious ways to eat. The core concept behind this healthy diet is to eat like the people who live in the Mediterranean region—fill your plate with fresh fruits and vegetables, healthy fats, whole grains, legumes and fish and enjoy moderate amounts of red wine. This 7-day Mediterranean meal plan features these good-for-you foods and delicious flavors for a week of healthy of eating. Plus, at 1,500 calories you're on track to lose a healthy 1 to 2 pounds per week.
The food options available on the DASH diet closely mirror the eating plan recommended in the US Department of Agriculture’s MyPlate, with a focus on whole foods, such as fruit and veggies; fat-free or low-fat dairy; whole grains; and lean meats, like fish and poultry. (3) Meanwhile, the plan requires cutting back on, or preferably eliminating, processed foods, like sugary drinks and packaged snacks, and limiting red meat, which in excess has been linked to poorer heart health and heart failure, according to a study published in the journal Nutrition, Metabolism and Cardiovascular Diseases.

I am a T2D, finally fully keto starting at the end of March. I am down 28 lbs. My goal is 50, so I am feeling encouraged and fitting into smaller sizes already. In May my A1C was 5.6. This morning, according to a home test kit I purchased from CVS, my A1C is 5. I believe that is fairly accurate based on my blood sugar readings, which are staying well below 100.
Thank you for this info. I will be copying the link to send to some folks ready to jump on this new trend. In fact I had a resident (I am a CDM) come in to our re-hab facility in pretty bad shape. He was unable to speak with me so I spoke with his wife. The man had come in after having a TIA. He was a diabetic, as well. The wife told me that she had her husband 9and herself) on a keto diet. When she saw the size my eyes got for some reason she got angry and very defensive and screamed “Forget everything you have been taught. It is all crap”. I understand when folks are worried abut their loved ones they can get pretty emotional. I asked my standard question about chew/swallowing, UBW and food allergies and quickly left. I spoke with the RD (a CDE) about what had happened. She tried to speak with the resident and his wife and got the same treatment. The RD said to me “He will have another stroke in a week”. He had one in 3 days. Unfortunately with this stroke, he got anew diagnosis of severe dysphagia. SLP tried and tried but he would aspirate on everything. He had to be pegged. He was brought back to the facility. The wife was taught how to feed him through the tube. He left the facility and passed quietly about 3 weeks later. I reached out to the wife on his second stay and we became fairly close. She said she thought she was doing the best thing for him because he was over weight. I get it. She only wanted a healthy husband. She apologized for being so quick when we met. I thanked her for actually educating me on this diet. I was not aware there was such a thing.
