Money is really what drives the decisions of the FDA. It's such a shame because who do we trust if we can't trust the FDA? If you have not heard, the FDA feels that meat and milk are safe from CLONED animals. I am very happy to be a vegan, although I know 99% of the population is not, however, in our very near future, I believe more and more people will consider veganism. This problem could hurt our kids more than anything. Since this is the cheaper way, restaurants probably wont need to put this on the menu either. Another reason why you need to be even more careful with going out to eat. America is making it harder and harder for the population to eat clean, pure and healthy foods.
If you click below you can sign a very fast petition to allow the consumers to know if the meat is cloned or not. This will effect everyone. Thank you in advanced for supporting the health of ourselves and children. To read more on this issue check out www.notinmyfood.org.

5 Easy Steps
I truly believe that nutrition is the biggest, by far, component of
a good fat loss program.
There's a saying in the fitness industry, "you can't out-train a
bad diet", and that hold's true almost 100% of the time (and
especially as you get older).
Fortunately, I also believe that good nutrition for fat loss is
very simple. And here are my 5 steps to building a fast fat burning
diet.
1) Find out how much you are eating now. Use fitday.com. (There is no fee to use this!)
2) If you are not losing weight, eat less.
3) Eat fruits, vegetables, nuts, and good protein sources. Don't eat
junk from a bag or a box.
4) Give yourself one treat meal per week to look forward to - not a
treat day, just a treat meal.
5) Plan ahead. Prepare your meals (spend 1-2 hours on the weekend
getting your meals and meal plan ready for the week). Identify
obstacles and come up with solutions to avoid them.
That is it.
Very simple. Most people do pretty well on 1-3 and even 5, but mess
up on number 4. I often hear how well someone did all day long, but
then while making dinner they snack on upwards of 500 calories of
their kid's treats, or other processed carbohydrates they have lying
around the house.
The little things can add up to big time problems. So take a good
long look at everything you eat.
And all of this can be avoided if you follow rule #5.
Combine these five simple nutrition rules with three short workouts
per week of resistance training and interval training, and you have
a very manageable fat loss plan that can fit any busy lifestyle.
