But in a shocking new presentation, Dr. Allen Spreen claims your prostate could be INNOCENT! Sounds absurd, but the science doesn't lie... Click here to learn more about this shocking claim... Restaurant food isn't worth its salt It's tough enough to eat healthy foods at home. But out in a restaurant, it's almost impossible -- because even seemingly healthy dishes are often loaded with a not-so-secret ingredient: salt. Chain restaurants have been very loud about their supposed attempts to make their meals healthier, including the use of less salt. But a new study finds there's not much action to back up all that noise. In fact, sodium levels have actually risen by an average of 2.4 percent over six years, according to a look at menu items from 78 chain restaurants. And in six of the menu items examined, sodium levels shot up by 30 percent or more. Processed foods sold in supermarkets did a little better -- but not much. Sodium levels in 402 common packaged food items fell by an average of just 3.5 percent, according to the study in the Journal of the American Medical Association: Internal Medicine. When you consider that processed foods often contain double or triple the recommended limits for salt, 3.5 percent is a very small drop in a very large bucket. On the other hand, processed foods and chain restaurant meals are unhealthy no matter how much or how little salt they contain, so it's best to steer clear even when the sodium levels are truly low. And that brings me to a question my patients often ask me: Just how much salt should we get anyway? Recent headlines would lead you to believe it doesn't matter. I'm sure you've seen them, they all looked a little like this: "Cutting back on salt offers no health benefits." Those headlines come from a recent recommendation from the Institute of Medicine -- but the agency didn't say there's no benefit to cutting back. In fact, they said there's plenty of evidence that the current recommended limit, 2,300 mg a day, is just about right. Some people want to cut it further, to 1,500 mg a day for most, but the agency said there's no benefit to going that low -- and that's what led to those headlines. Leave it to the mainstream media to get the story wrong (as usual). The best way to get just the right amount is to avoid packaged foods and fast food and prepare your own meals from fresh ingredients. Cook with spices, but don't add salt until you're ready to eat. You'll eat better, tastier, healthier meals -- and you'll get just the right amount of sodium. Stop the unexplained ringing, buzzing, clicking and popping in your ears Stop the chirping and the whistling These "unexplained" noises are called tinnitus. And while the mainstream medical establishment may have admitted defeat, we have the solutions you're looking for to silence that "orchestra" once and for all. Discover the hidden causes and the little known solutions -- most of them are free and easy to implement -- that the mainstream never even thought to look for.

The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization hopes you do -- because the agency says eating bugs could be the answer to the global obesity epidemic. I can practically hear everyone's response to that: EWWW! Now, before I get into the downsides, I will say that bugs such as locusts, crickets, and grasshoppers have been a staple of the human diet going back to Biblical times, especially during famine, and for good reason: They're packed with protein and minerals and have surprisingly high levels of healthy fats. I haven't eaten them myself, but people who do eat insects say it's not as bad as it sounds. Some even swear they're delicious -- and in one blind taste test, 9 of 10 volunteers preferred meatballs made with half meat and half mealworm to meatballs made with 100 percent meat. I wonder how they reacted when they were told what was really in those meatballs. My guess is more than a few started looking around for the nearest bathroom. The downside to this, of course, is that they're still bugs. Most of us work very hard to keep them out of our food -- so I don't see this catching on, at least not here in the United States. I'm certainly not planning to eat them myself. Besides, you can lose weight and stay healthy without eating a single insect. Start by skipping processed foods (which may have more insect parts in them that you'd like to believe), and be sure to pass on anything with added sugar. Then, center your diet on healthy lean proteins from more familiar sources such as chicken as well as healthy fats from fish and nuts. These are also the staples of the Mediterranean diet, which has given us some of the healthiest and longest-living people in the world -- and if they're doing it without eating bugs, you can, too.
