Thoughts on Sexual Assault “Prevention” | The Men's Health Feminist I originally found this photo on Facebook, fell in love with it, and traced it back to a Tumblr blogger who wrote the text and another blogger who created the image. It perfectly mocks our current approach to sexual assault prevention, which covertly makes it the woman’s responsibility. This blogger turns the tables. While current tips include don’t put your drink down and don’t walk by yourself, she provides equivalent tips for the assaulters. Don’t get me wrong, I understand where people are coming from when they tell me to carry mace. But here’s my problem. I moved to New York when I was 17 and I received so many warnings that I actually felt guilty about walking around after dark. But I wasn’t really doing anything wrong. Staying out late seems to be a risk on the woman’s part and it’s partially her fault if she’s assaulted.
To-Die-For Foie Gras That Nobody Had to Die For Award-winning chef Amanda Cohen can add another notch to her (cruelty-free) lipstick case: Her not-so-sinfully delicious Mushroom Mousse has won the top prize of $10,000 in PETA’s Fine Faux Foie Gras Challenge. Cohen, who is a veteran of New York City vegan hot spots TeaNY, Angelica Kitchen, Pure Food and Wine, and Blossom Café, wowed the judges with her deceptively simple combination of puréed vegan margarine, onions, soy milk, and portobello mushrooms. “I really wanted to make something decadent,” says Amanda. Yes, I think you could say that it stands on its own. If you can’t get to Amanda’s New York restaurant, Dirt Candy, to taste-test her mind-blowing Mushroom Mousse for yourself, you can find the recipe at PETA Living. New Yorkers, if you’ve already tried Amanda’s prize-winning concoction, please feel free to post your reviews below. Written by Alisa Mullins

There Is No Biological Reason to Eat Three Meals a Day -- So Why Do We Do... We grew up believing in three meals a day. When we skip meals, eat extra meals or subvert paradigms -- spaghetti breakfasts, pancake suppers -- we feel naughty, edgy and criminal. "Three meals a day" resonates like a Bible phrase. But it's a cultural construct. People around the world, even in the West, have not always eaten three squares. The three-meals model is a fairly recent convention, which is now being eclipsed as, like everything else, eating becomes a highly personalized matter of choice. A torrent of new studies explores the health effects of eating three squares. A University of Maastricht study found that eating at least four small meals daily reduces obesity risk by 45 percent. A UC Berkeley study found that "alternate-day fasting" -- feasting one day, fasting the next, ad infinitum -- might decrease the risk of heart disease and cancer. For most of history, meals were very variable. "He wouldn't have a large evening meal.
The Ultimate Weights-Free Workout: The Body It may trouble you to learn that the gym is not the best place to get the ideal male body. Most health clubs are based around the idea that you want to target and isolate individual muscles for enlargement. If an exercise puts you on a machine, chair, or bench, it probably isolates muscle. If a workout promises bigger biceps or pecs, it probably isolates muscle. Overly defined six-pack abs, for instance, help us do only a meaningless skill—flex our abdomen. The job of a torso is to transmit the so-called hoop forces needed to hold your body rigid in a pull-up, push-up, or handstand—either for exercise or applied in real-world situations. "Gym-styled exercise cannot produce naturally elegant physiques," says Frenchman Erwan Le Corre, the founder of MovNat, a back-to-nature-style fitness movement. "You can tell the difference between a guy that has done only gym exercise and someone who has worked on his feet," says Mark Lauren, author of You Are Your Own Gym.

Comments comments Zucchini Noodles with Pesto | This dish is a play on pesto spaghetti! I used a spirooli to make thin zucchini noodles and tossed it in a creamy pesto sauce. Pesto is usually made exclusively from pine nuts but holy cow they were really expensive at my local store! so I only managed to use part pine nut and added cashews as their poorer alternative. Preparation time: 20mins (plus standing time for noodles)Serves 2 You’ll need: A blender or food processor Spirooli/spiral slicer or you can just use a vegetable peeler to make thin strips Ingredients: 3 medium sized zucchinis (approx 3 cups)1 cup of loosely packed Sweet basil3/4 pine nuts (or cashews or mix) (reserve a few for garnish if you like!) Zucchini Noodles Use a spiral cutter or vegetable peeler to make thin strips of zucchini and place in a strainer over a bowl. Pesto Combine all other ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Toss the pesto with the noodles and serve immediately.
Four Rules for Fabulous Healthy Snacks Ghréline Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. La ghréline est une hormone qui stimule l’appétit[1] : son taux augmente avant les repas et diminue après ceux-ci. Cette hormone est considérée comme l’antagoniste de l’hormone leptine, produite par les adipocytes, qui induit la satiété lorsque son taux augmente. La ghréline est également produite dans le noyau arqué de l’hypothalamus moyen, où elle stimule la sécrétion de l’hormone de croissance ("GH") par la glande hypophyse antérieure [2]. Suite à certaines chirurgies gastriques, les taux moyens post-absorption et post-prandial de ghréline diminuent, entraînant une satiété plus rapidement qu’en temps normal (i.e. : sans la déviation gastrique). Histoire et nom[modifier | modifier le code] La découverte de la ghréline a été faite par le chercheur Masayasu Kojima et ses collègues en 1999[5].

Stacy Stowers - StumbleUpon There’s a very good reason why it’s called the Happy Shake!

Page non trouvée L'arthrose vaincue ?! Cher lecteur, Un des plus graves problèmes de la médecine actuelle est que, par manque de temps, de formation, mais aussi pour des raisons légales, les médecins conventionnels ont tendance à ne PAS proposer à leurs patients des solutions naturelles, qui offrent pourtant de grands espoirs face aux douleurs et aux maladies. Si vous avez de , par exemple, votre médecin vous prescrit sans doute des anti-inflammatoires non stéroïdiens (aspirine, diclofénac, ibuprofène...). Ces médicaments suppriment partiellement la douleur, mais ils ont des effets secondaires et ils ne règlent pas la cause de la maladie (la destruction du cartilage). On sait pourtant aujourd'hui que des composés naturels pourraient eux, non seulement soulager la douleur, mais aussi relancer la production de cartilage. Ils ont retrouvé la souplesse qu'ils avaient des années plus tôt, sans effets indésirables. . Mais il n'y a aucun doute que, pour certaines personnes, . Et que dire des ? Pas en 1850.
