		<description><![CDATA[According to Dr. David Kessler's amazing little book "The End of Overeating", food manufacturers, marketers and restaurants take strategic advantage of powerful “cues” to get us to eat more of their fatty, sugary, or salty foods.  If these cues keep coming – if you see candy or chips on every corner, for example, and if you keep returning to locations where you habitually overeat – you’ll just be relying on sheer willpower, day after day, to try to resist the irresistible. Here are Dr. Kessler's seven tips on how to STOP believing that this tempting food is somehow calling your name and - worse! - that you're simply powerless to refuse it.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=myheartsisters.org&amp;blog=7235999&amp;post=13202&amp;subd=czthomas&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since surviving a heart attack, I'm smugly happy to announce that my consumption of heart-healthy fruit and veggies has increased nicely.  I should preface that by explaining that I grew up in a Ukrainian family where we considered dill pickles to be a vegetable course).  This means that sometimes the nice fresh produce in the back of the crisper can begin to resemble compost slime more than tonight's dinner - and that's just plain wasteful. In fact, North Americans waste about 40% of the food produced for human consumption, both before it gets to the plate, or because we leave uneaten food on that plate.  Here are four tips to help you have a waste-free holiday season this year - and beyond. <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=myheartsisters.org&amp;blog=7235999&amp;post=13019&amp;subd=czthomas&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

But research shows surprising links between eating sugary foods and heart disease.
