This week a Mayo clinic cardiologist calls Foodist “groundbreaking,” why our veggies are less nutritious than they used to be, and debunking the blood type diet.
Want to see all my favorite links? (There's lots more). Be sure to follow me on on Delicious. I also share links on Twitter @summertomato, Google+ and the Summer Tomato Facebook page. I'm very active on all these sites and would love to connect with you. (And yes, I took that pepper heart pic myself).
Links of the week
Breeding the Nutrition Out of Our Food <<Heirloom foods aren’t just for elitist foodies anymore. Turns out they are far higher in nutrients than anything you can find at the grocery store, and it’s not on accident. (NY Times)
Some of My Best Friends Are Germs <<This is long, but totally worth reading. Michael Pollan explores the importance of internal bacteria for our health, and how we are destroying them. (NY Times)
Don’t just sit there. Really. <<A great review of the dangers of sitting (even if you work out regularly). (LA Times)
Does Your Blood Type Determine Your Optimal Diet? <<A fabulous analysis of why the blood type diet is complete BS, and a few other surprising facts about the impact of blood type on health. (Mark’s Daily Apple)
Does it Matter What Time You Eat? <<Some great info. Hint: the answer is yes, sort of. In my experience eating at consistent times is also very important. (Note: turn down the sound on your computer before you open this link, there’s an obnoxiously loud autoplay ad). (Nutrition Diva)
