This Dangerous Diet Means More Broken Bones
Make no bones about it… Being a vegetarian won’t do your health any favors, no matter what you hear in the media and from so-called “nutrition experts.”
I’ve been warning my patients about this for years.
Despite all the hype about plant-based meals being better for you, eliminating animal protein is not a healthy option – especially as you age.
A recent study of more than 26,000 women between the ages of 35 and 69 found that vegetarians had a 33% higher risk of hip fracture compared with meat eaters.1
The study, published in BMC Medicine, looked at four groups that consisted of “occasional” meat eate...

Why do cats love tuna so much? Scientists may finally know
Apart from Garfield’s legendary love of lasagna, perhaps no food is more associated with cats than tuna. The dish is a staple of everything from
The New Yorker
cartoons
to
Meow Mix jingles
—and more than 6% of all wild-caught fish goes into cat food. Yet tuna (or any seafood for that matter) is an odd favorite for an animal that evolved in the desert. Now, researchers say they have found a biological explanation for this curious craving.

One Man ’ s Quest to Heal the Oceans —And Maybe Save the World
Enric Sala—marine ecologist, conservationist, and ocean advocate—is standing under a life-size replica of a Northern Atlantic Right Whale at the natural history museum in Washington, D.C., and the air outside is smudged with wildfire smoke drifting down from Canada. It’s not surprising that Sala wants to talk about the smoke, or about whales. Their poop, however, is an unexpected twist. According to Sala, whale excrement, or, more precisely, the lack of it, has a role to play in the choking miasma that has forced my interview with one of the world’s foremost ocean explorers indoors instead of out on...
