I found a great article posted on CrossFit West Santa Cruz about Hunter Gatherers and eating a Paleo Diet is hard wired in our DNA.

Tuesday, 06.30.09: MSG :(

"Diseases which may be caused by MSG are obesity, Type II diabetes, and high blood pressure. In studies, HEALTHY mice were made obese and leptin resistant, and AMPK was activated.  A recent Study in rural China on humans, shows MSG contributes to obesity, regardless of caloric intake or activity. Animal studies also showed that glutamate constricts blood vessels.  It acts as a calcium channel OPENER, and increased appetite in healthy animals by 40% by acting on the hypothalamus.  Those taking calcium channel blockers may be interested in knowing that MSG COUNTERACTS the most often prescribed medications for high blood pressure - calcium channel blockers."

While walking around Chinatown in San Francisco I saw something that looked familiar in the one of the shop windows. I am not sure what this is, but I know what it looks like.

Maybe someone could help me identify the above pictures.

Tuesday, 06.23.09: Vegansexual

It seems weirder practices of vegans have reared their ugly head…this time the practice of being Vegansexual has come to light.

Vegansexuals are people who do not eat any meat or animal products, and who choose not to be sexually intimate with non-vegan partners whose bodies, they say, are made up of dead animals.”

Many female respondents described being attracted to people who ate meat, but said they did not want to have sex with meat-eaters because their bodies were made up of animal carcasses...‘It's a whole new thing – I have not come across it before,’ said Potts. One vegan respondent from Christchurch said: ‘I believe we are what we consume, so I really struggle with bodily fluids, especially sexually.’...Another Christchurch vegan said she found non-vegans attractive, but would not want to be physically close to them...‘I would not want to be intimate with someone whose body is literally made up from the bodies of others who have died for their sustenance,’ she said

So it seems that Vegans no longer want to have sexual relations with Carnivores. There is some strange irony in the practice of being Vegansexual; it must make foreplay and oral sex off limits and asking for it kind of awkward. After all they don’t want to foul around with someone that puts meat in their mouth. I don’t really think it is a big problem, I googled good looking Vegansexuals and the pictures were not impressive enough for me to stop eating a big steak.
