I do agree with you about the omega 6 overconsumption and the need for omega 3's. That is part II of the Healthy Heart piece. In doing my research I have found that the specific chain of a saturated fat that is beneficial is not yet clear (based on double blind placebo studies). Do you have such studies available from the original source that say otherwise? If so, send them my way. I would be happy to read them. Thanks,Laura Hi David,

The idea was vigorously debated up until 1977 when the United States Government declared saturated fats a health hazard(1). Since the matter was considered settled, over the next 25 years there was pretty much no money for saturated fat research. More recently, the saturated fat debate has been revived(2) and scientists are realizing that a mistake was made(3). Unfortunately, the Harvard School of Public Health(4) continues to fight against the truth about the benefits of saturated fats(5) and the hazards associated with excessive omega-6 consumption(6,7,8). I hope this information is helpful.

A friend turned me on to the organization and I was shocked to find out how many children suffer from chronic tooth decay and mouth pain because of poor dental care.

]]> Comment on TTM Stages of Change – What stage are you at? by Roberta Schwartz Wennik, MS, RD http://www.lauracipullollc.com/2011/07/07/ttm-stages-of-change-what-stage-are-you-at/#comment-15 Roberta Schwartz Wennik, MS, RD Thu, 07 Jul 2011 17:19:56 +0000 http://lauracipullollc.com/blog/?p=188#comment-15 No question that Prochaski's Stages of Change are important to understand when you or someone you're helping wants to make changes in their lives. Along with Stages of Change, knowing your personality type based on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is every bit as important and involved in how you can make it from one stage to the next. (For those interested in finding out their personality type, visit http://www.advantagediets.com and take the free personality quiz.) There are 16 personality types, each made up of four preferences. While you're at that URL, check out the slideshow to understand personality typing better. Just as an example, those who are "iNtuitives" may have an easier time seeing themselves move from one stage to the next because they live more in the future and can see what the changes will bring them. On the other hand, "Sensors", who live in the moment, can possibly get stuck in one stage, especially if part of their type includes "Perceiving" (the preference that loves processing rather than getting it done and moving on).
