Granny was Right!

How often have we heard that people are getting fatter? Too often and unfortunately the trend continues. Try eating like your granny did and you might be surprised at the results.

If your granny told you to always start the day with a good breakfast, listen up. When she said that skipping meals wasn't smart, right again. Want some insight into what traditional diets looked like? Check out Oldways. http://www.oldwayspt.org

Food pyramids are used to illustrate what works and has worked in traditional Asian, Latin, Mediterranean, and Vegetarian diets. Forget the 6-11 servings of grain-based foods that the American food pyramid has recommended. Fear of fat has been eliminated in these pyramids. Exercise, rather than wheat or corn-based foods has become the base of the pyramid.

Check them out and enjoy the knowledge that Granny was right.
