Friday Wrap Up: Mercury in sushi, sustainable pet food, and superfoods!


By Nutrition: Facts or Fiction? (Visit website)




As you may have noticed, I got adventurous and gave the blog a makeover this week. I like it, but still have some kinks to work out. What do you think??

My favourite items from around the web this week:

Surgery-free gastric banding? Can hypnosis make you believe you had the procedure and help you lose weight? (Calorie Lab)

Mercury content in sushi tuna is much higher than other types (Calorie Lab).

The dirty little secret of processed soy products - they're not good for you! Really, are we seeing a pattern yet? Highly processed foods = bad, people. Pretty simple. (Cornucopia)

Can omega-3's reduce the risk of endometriosis? (Dr. Weil)

You don't have to drink out of plastic bottles to do damage. Dr. Weil explains how the massive amounts of plastic in our environment may be affecting our health.

So you're watching where your seafood comes from, but what's in your cat food? Some cat food makers are now sourcing sustainable fish sources. (Ecosalon)

Nutrition Unplugged saves you money by debunking the illusion of "superfoods".

More and more evidence says that sugar, more so than fat, increases your risk for heart disease; but does it matter what kind of sugar? (NYTimes)

Weighty Matters calls out Coke for their shady marketing and KFC for their ironic cancer crusade.

Finally, my video pick of the week is an oldie but goodie TED talk from Mark Bittman.
