What to do with Leftover Juicer Pulp: Make Fritters! One of the things I feel guilty about on a daily basis is throwing away juice pulp after I prepare my morning green juice. The pulp is simply the fibers of the vegetables and can be used for so many things! Today, I decided to show you a way to put veggie juice pulp to good use, and in a low-fat, few-ingredient way. Ingredients (6-8 patties) 2 cups juice pulp (kale, carrots, chard)2 cloves garlic, minced1/2 tablespoon mustard1/4 teaspoon black pepper1/4 teaspoon chili powder1/2 teaspoon sea salt Instructions Combine all the ingredients until evenly combined. Place patties on a greased saucepan and cook on both sides over medium heat for 2-3 minutes. I paired mine with fresh kale and ketchup and ate them in a whole-wheat tortilla. Enjoy! Bon Appetit!

Understanding Neocarnism: How Vegan Advocates Can Appreciate and Respond to “Happy Meat,” Locavorism, and “Paleo Dieting” These days, few commentaries cause vegans more despair than those proclaiming the virtues of eating “humane” meat, those promoting the ethics of eating “sustainable” meat, or those insisting on the nutritional necessity of eating any meat. Exasperated vegans wonder why, despite years of seemingly successful campaigning to raise awareness about the impact of animal agriculture on animals, the environment, and human health, these same concerns would actually be used to defend meat eating. Yet it is not despite vegan advocacy, but largely because of it that such defensiveness has made its way into public discourse. The new wave of pro-meat arguments is in part an attempt to defend the weakened meat-eating establishment against the very real threat posed by an increasingly powerful vegan movement. Carnistic Backlash A backlash is a defensive, often unconscious response by dominant interests to threats against their power. Neocarnism Compassionate Carnism: Eating Animals is Normal

CLERMONT-FERRAND (63000) - "Pirate box": un réseau alternatif à Internet voit le jour à Clermont-Ferrand en 2011, par David Darts, professeur de technologie à l'Université de New York. Christopher Mendes, lui, est alors élève au lycée Roger-Claustres à Clermont-Ferrand. Il importe à son tour dans son internat ce boîtier wifi portatif, pour en faire profiter ses camarades. Depuis le 13 avril dernier, avec le concours de l’informaticien Scott Marlin, comme lui membre des Indignés du 63, Christopher veut désormais développer les "pirate box" à Clermont-Ferrand. Comment ça marche ? Une pirate box peut se confectionner simplement, pour un coût d’environ 70 euros. Tout appareil qui peut se connecter en wifi (ordinateur, tablette, téléphone etc.) pourra se connecter sans fil au routeur, et donc avoir accès aux fichiers contenus dans la clé USB. La portée de ces petits routeurs est de 70 mètres, jusqu’à 120 mètres s’ils sont assortis d’une antenne. A quoi ça sert ? Des "pirate box" ont aussi vu le jour à Paris, Bordeaux et Toulouse. Est-ce légal ?

Juicing | What are the Health Benefits of Juicing? Congratulations! You have made some great changes to your life. The last step will be to implement a juicing plan. I am firmly convinced that the benefits of juicing are the keys to giving you a radiant, energetic life, and truly optimal health. I've said this in the other levels of this nutrition plan, but it's so important I'll say it again - valuable and sensitive micronutrients become damaged when you heat foods. Cooking and processing food destroys these micronutrients by altering their shape and chemical composition. Virtually every health authority recommends that we get 6-8 servings of vegetables and fruits per day and very few of us actually get that. While you can certainly juice fruits, if you are overweight, have high blood pressure, diabetes, or high cholesterol, it is best to limit using fruits until you normalize these conditions. Benefits of Juicing Vegetable Juice is Not a Complete Meal Important to Listen to Your Body Lesson 1: Use pesticide free veggies.

Aging healthfully is not just a matter of having good genes But not necessarily a lot of effort. Aging well — or, at least, aging better — doesn’t have to be that hard. After talking to many aging experts and looking at the latest findings on aging from around the world, it’s clear that people can improve the way they will age. To start with, you need to know what makes you age, and that means you have to pay attention to what happens inside your cells, where aging begins. For example, the food you eat influences the production of harmful free radicals during metabolism. Scientists have also discovered the role of telomeres in aging (See “Field of Inquiry” on Page E4.) So, your lifestyle can affect the microscopic processes going on in your cells day in and day out. To eat more healthfully, for example, “one bite is better than none,” explained Bahram Arjmandi, chair of the department of nutrition, food and exercise sciences at Florida State University, who has extensively studied the anti-aging properties of numerous foods. Bake, don’t broil

Buying Meat This page describes the buying of meat alone. Meat needs to be treated and cooked correctly to make sure that it is safe to eat. See food hygiene for details. The following advice refers to England. It may be true elsewhere, but I don't guarantee it! Buying meat from a butcher Most people who buy meat in the UK get it from a supermarket. Some meat is bought by number rather than weight, such as sausages or chops, and this is probably easiest to start with. The butcher may ask you questions, and this may frighten you if you think you ought to know the answer. Buying meat from a supermarket It would seem easier to buy meat from a supermarket. Beef The thing to remember about beef is that cheap cuts can be tough, so think about how you're going to cook it before buying. Mince: This is cheap. Oxtail: This is a specialised cut of meat, used in stews. Stewing steak: You see the word 'steak' and you might think of a lovely sizzling grilled steak. Chicken Recipes may specify chicken pieces.

Calorie restriction Two trials have been performed involving primates, but have not demonstrated increases in median lifespan. A study of rhesus monkeys begun in 1987 by the National Institute on Aging published results in August 2012 that found evidence of health benefits, but did not demonstrate increased median lifespan.[2] A study by the University of Wisconsin beginning in 1989 is still ongoing.[1][3][4] Research on maximum life span in that study is still ongoing. Research history[edit] In 1934, Mary Crowell and Clive McCay of Cornell University observed that laboratory rats fed a severely reduced calorie diet while maintaining micronutrient levels resulted in life spans of up to twice as long as otherwise expected. These findings were explored in detail by a series of experiments with mice conducted by Roy Walford and his student Richard Weindruch. The findings have since been accepted and generalized to a range of other animals. Effects on humans[edit] Positive effects[edit] Negative effects[edit]

Ça bosse combien, un instit ?... by Linsay Lorsque j'avais quinze ou seize ans, discutant avec mon oncle de mes projets d'avenir, j'avais évoqué l'idée qui me trottait dans la tête depuis quelques temps : devenir instit. "Ah, ça c'est bien, instit. Bref, j'ai fait le compte. The power of intermittent fasting Scientists are uncovering evidence that short periods of fasting, if properly controlled, could achieve a number of health benefits, as well as potentially helping the overweight, as Michael Mosley discovered. I'd always thought of fasting as something unpleasant, with no obvious long term benefits. So when I was asked to make a documentary that would involve me going without food, I was not keen as I was sure I would not enjoy it. But the Horizon editor assured me there was great new science and that I might see some dramatic improvements to my body. So, of course, I said, "yes". I am not strong-willed enough to diet over the long term, but I am extremely interested in the reasons why eating less might lead to increased life span, particularly as scientists think it may be possible to get the benefits without the pain. How you age is powerfully shaped by your genes. Growth hormone There is now evidence suggesting that IGF-1 levels can be lowered by what you eat. Intermittent fasting

Paris versus New York en plus de 200 dessins Un designer parisien amoureux de New York compare les deux villes dans un livre de croquis colorés. Baguette versus bagel, pont des Arts versus Brooklyn Bridge, Quasimodo versus King Kong… Comparer Paris à New York grâce à des croquis face à face bien troussés et colorés, telle est l'idée originale d'un designer parisien amoureux de New York. Diplômé de l'École Penninghen, Vahram Muratyan, la trentaine depuis l'an dernier, se rend dans la Grosse Pomme depuis tout petit - sa mère était hôtesse de l'air chez TWA. L'an dernier, il décide de s'y installer quelques mois et lance un blog où il compare ces deux mégalopoles, à la fois semblables et antagonistes. À travers cet ouvrage, on sent deux villes où les styles de vie se répondent. » EN IMAGES - Paris versus New York en croquis

Food - Healthy recipes and information Mother Teresa: Anything but a saint… Public release date: 1-Mar-2013 [ Print | E-mail Share ] [ Close Window ] Contact: William Raillant-Clarkw.raillant-clark@umontreal.ca 514-343-7593University of Montreal The myth of altruism and generosity surrounding Mother Teresa is dispelled in a paper by Serge Larivée and Genevieve Chenard of University of Montreal's Department of Psychoeducation and Carole Sénéchal of the University of Ottawa's Faculty of Education. "While looking for documentation on the phenomenon of altruism for a seminar on ethics, one of us stumbled upon the life and work of one of Catholic Church's most celebrated woman and now part of our collective imagination—Mother Teresa—whose real name was Agnes Gonxha," says Professor Larivée, who led the research. As a result, the three researchers collected 502 documents on the life and work of Mother Teresa.
