5 Great Stretches for Every Body

I like to call flexibility training the ugly stepsister of the exercise world because everyone seems to overlook it until it's too late. Eventually you strain or sprain something or you're so stiff from step class that you want to cry. I teach yoga and Pilates, and my favorite party trick is bringing my left heel over my head and feeding myself a little snack between my toes. I know, I know, it grosses out my husband, too. For many people, however, stretching does not come so easy. But being limber is no... (more)

Metabolic mysteries: why some people can't lose weight even when they eat less | NutritionData.com Blog by Monica Reinagel, L.D.N., C.N.S.

As a nutritionist, I've worked with patients who fail to lose weight even when their food diaries show that they are being diligent about their diets.

Slideshow: Sushi Roll Selector | Eat This, Not That

Unlike the Japanese, who favor sashimi and nigiri-style sushi, the vast majority of sushi consumed in this country comes in roll form. And nowhere does the potential for seriously healthy eats or nutritional negligence oscillate so wildly than in these rice-stuffed seaweed bites. Better take a second to digest our version of a roll call, listed from best to worst. (Nutrition stats are for an entire 6 to 8 piece roll.) (more)
