  Meathooked - The History and...

  One of the great science and health revelations of our time is the danger posed by meat-eating. Every day, it seems, we are warned about the harm producing and consuming meat can do to the environment and our bodies. Many of us have tried to limit how much meat we consume, and many of us have tried to give it up altogether. But it is not easy to resist the smoky, cured, barbecued, and fried delights that tempt us. What makes us crave animal protein, and what makes it so hard to give up? And if consuming meat is truly unhealthy for human beings, why didn't evolution turn us all into vegetarians in the first place?In Meathooked, science writer Marta Zaraska explores what she calls the "meat puzzle": our love of meat, despite its harmful effects. Zaraska takes us on a witty tour of meat cultures around the word, stopping in India's unusual steakhouses, animal sacrifices at temples in Benin, and labs in the Netherlands that grow meat in petri dishes. From the power of evolution to the influence of the meat lobby, and from our genetic makeup to the traditions of our foremothers, she reveals the interplay of forces that keep us hooked on animal protein.

  Diets, diets, diets. Which one is right for you? 
  “Lose weight while eating chocolate chip cookies at every meal!” 
  “Drink 4 cups of green tea every day—it’ll boost your metabolism and melt off fat like crazy!” 
  “Skip breakfast and eat only two big meals a day. You won’t even have to worry about counting calories!” 
  With so many contradicting diets and crazes floating around the internet nowadays, most of them turning out to be trends lasting for only a summer, how do you figure out which is best for you?  
  Something worth pointing out, the diets claiming you’ll lose x amount of pounds in x weeks are complete nonsense. Not only will you be depriving yourself in one way or another, but you will also likely gain back the weight you lost, if not more, after returning to your normal eating habits. 
  Don’t follow diets promising immediate results. Rather, change your lifestyle and food choices in a way that will promote optimal health and leave you feeling energized and ready to take on the world! 
  Our body needs certain nutrients to cater to its high demands—without them, we would crash and burn. So no wonder you were left feeling unsatisfied and fatigued while on the other diets; it was your body’s way of telling you, “Give me some real food!”  
  In comes the Mediterranean diet, which isn’t a “diet” so to speak, but a way of living.
