The biggest modern threats to health

If I have to name two things that do most damage to our health, they've got to be sugar and vegetable oil. These two devils work together to create most chronic diseases facing modern population. In a nut shell, sugar drives up insulin, insulin is pro inflammatory, and the omega-6 fat in vegetable provides the perfect fuel for inflammation(Eicosanoids).

Adding to this tragedy is the modern production of grain-fed meats. Grain-fed meats are loaded with omega-6 fat and have very little protective omega-3 fats. Ideally we should always go for grass-fed beef and lamb, and wild-caught fishes. And if you have to consume regular supermarket meats, it's a must to supplement with omega-3 fish oils.

Catchup

I only managed to have a few posts for this semester, and this is definitely not the way I intended.

Also I got very little research done this semester, and probably I won't make As for the two courses I thought I would without much studying. As regard to my work, it's not been good either.

It would sound like that I had a pretty bad semester. But, on the plus side, I am glad it turned out to be this way: I've gained so much knowledge in the health and fitness fronts, and as the result my quality of life has improved dramatically. I can truly say that I am contented with my life and I really enjoy my life. Somehow I've found the inner peace, rarely does something or somebody bother me that I would become unhappy due to something I can not control. I take full charge of my life and I don't blame on anybody else for misfortunes in my life.
