V&V Friends: Do you think we should ask YA for a "Mediterranean Diet" section? Mediterranean diet, meat reducer, piscavore or pescatarian… whichever word you like to give omnivores who only eat fish, do you think we should try to get them a section? I am sure to get lots of rude answers for this, but the pescavore/tarians probably have it tough. When they ask in the general food section about dishes where the only meat/ animal used is fish, they probably get lots of “eat steak” answers. Then they try to come to the vegetarian section to ask about eating sea animals, which then annoys (and sometimes offends) vegetarians because vegetarians don’t eat animals. Maybe if they got their own section, they could exchange lots of fish recipes and be happy to be around others like themselves. YA does add sections on occasion, so maybe if enough people asked, they could get their own little panel in YA. What are your thoughts? :)

And if you've eaten a lot of high cancer risk foods like char grilled meat, does your cancer risk come down if you quit and switch to bioflavonoids, red wine, pumpkin etc.?

Is the Mediterranean diet just another ridiculous diet? My doctor wants me to follow the Mediterranean diet for 2 weeks to monitor my blood sugar. But that just seems stupid because it is LESS healthy than my current diet! I'm all about clean eating: fresh fruits/produce, lean proteins, egg whites, no artificial crap and no soda. So if my diet is already super healthy, isn't ridiculous to ask me to change???? I am at a healthy weight and lead a healthy lifestyle. I just don't like the pasta/bread/etc. carbs!!
How can a busy student best fit the mediterranean/asiatic diet in his life? Hello, I'm following the mediterranean and asiatic diets (see http://www.mediterrasian.com) to have a healthier lifestyle and to lose weight (read: A LOT of weight). I have, however, a few questions: * Drinking half-a-bottle of decent wine is too expensive for me. I'm thinking about consuming one or two bottles each week, only. Is it better to drink a little everyday, or more less days? * As many brazilians, I consume huge amounts of cold-infused yerba mate (5-10L every day). Is it good or bad for my health? Has it the same benefits of tea? * Eating out costs the same for me, but isn't it better to skip the lunch at University, and eat only at home, having super-healthy breakfast and supper? * Besides carrots, are there any healthy and easily-made snacks I could carry around? * Is yoga good for losing weight? * Do I actually need anything more than 30 minutes of walking and a healthy diet to lose weight? Thank you very much for your time!

Nice answers everybody! I really liked they Muslim-view and the Vegeterian-view about it, did not think about it at first. And thanks for the spelling report. I too know it as "gelatine", but was not sure. Makes it kind of hard for me to choose a best answer...

Middle Eastern/Mediterranean Tofu Recipes? As far as vegan fillings are concerned, we use lentils, lots of lentils, and chickpeas, and have for a loong time. Tofu does not traditionally have a place in the Middle Eastern/Mediterranean (refer to as MEM from now on, and excluding Indian food which is wonderful but of a distinct flavor) diet. But, I've loved every South and East Asian tofu dish that I've had so far -- especially the one we ate tonight!! -- and I can tell that tofu can be made to satisfy the MEM taste. I just don't have too much experience in cooking it myself and have yet to master the issue of its texture. Specifically, my question is this: What are some variations on MEM dishes that can involve tofu AND have a truly MEM taste and at least close to a MEM feel as well -- that would almost fool a MEM person? If such exist, how to cook it? I know that I can probably google any food combination and get SOME recipe. But I want the most "MEM" tofu recipe. :) Thanks! Thank you already! Any more tofu variants of non-vegetarian dishes, like the moussaka example (btw, awesome because when I was brainstorming with my husband last night we were wondering how moussaka can be made with tofu since tofu goes so well with eggplant!)? I do love Greek, Turkish, Syrian, Lebanese, Armenian, Israeli foods. I will try my borek (Turkish spanakopita) with tofu next time and suggest using tofu for my mom's sarma (Turkish dolmades), thank you. We have mixed tofu instead of feta in salad before -- I agree it works great. Thanks for the recipes. :) One more thing: I am a little bit wary of using tofu for cacik (tzatziki), both because I never used silken tofu and because even the type of yogurt used could so much affect the taste. Did you try this already (make sure it works)? :)
What are weight loss diet pills and how exactly do they help you lose weight? like what do they do, make you want to eat less (lol i wish) or what? no i am not overweight, i am perfectly NORMAL, that is the problem. i weight 110 and i am 14 and that may seem ok but not for me since i am training to be a professional dancer. i dance 3 hours everyday. except sunday, and believe me, its not that easy AT ALL. so dont go on telling me i am normal, because it wont help, but thanks for the answers anyways! first one who answer my question and actually helps me lose some weight gets ten points! what other formulas or diet stuff can i like drink to lose weight? my family is all into organics, and there is not one teeny bag of junk food in our house. we don't eat white bread, i eat nonfat yogurt, 1% fat milk, and all the food my mom cooks is like Mediterranean and all that. we get our food at all-organic stores and not like at food4less and allbertsons and smiths and etc. whatever.
Is it too late to start eating healthy? I was brought up on a typical English diet full of the wrong fat and rubbish, but now I have the choice what to eat I eat Mediterranean type food such as oily fish, olive oil and garlic.

Need Help! How do I make my presentation interesting? I've got a 7 minute oral presentation to do on the topic "You are what you eat: a study of the role of diet and nutrition in health, lifestyle and longevity. Which diets lead to better health and why?" I have chosen to talk about the Mediterranean diet and the Okinawan diet, but due to the scientific background of my topic can't really seem to think of a way to include the audience. I will be using powerpoint as visual aid, but would like my presentation to be remembered for the right reasons and make it enjoyable. I need a way to get my message across, something really simple but effective. Just a bit of b/ground info; Okinawa has the most people living over 100 which is why I have chosen to find out why exactly they are living so long, it is to do with the fact that they have a low caloric diet. The Med. diet on the other hand is known for lowering the risk of heart disease resulting in longevity, due to their high consumption of olive oil, fish etc etc.

I have dandruff and its worse during the summer, why is that? the norm is to get it during the winter, I'm the opposite. I get it every summer, although lately I've been under alot of stress, which also causes it. Is it normal to have this during the summer? I figure its due to the oils produced during the winter that help my scalp keep moisturized. I maintain a mediterranean diet and have plenty of olive oil. I've also had oily skin my whole life. And still every summer I end up with grotesque dandruff, it sometimes gets really bad and I scratch till I bleed, which I know is bad. I read somewhere to try olive oil with honey and to leave it on the scalp for a while. I've also been using FINESE, or however you spell it, a shampoo I've used since I was younger. I know it doesn't have SLS in it but I wonder about its other ingredients. Also, I used to dye my hair and that would always get rid of my dandruff for a while, does that mean its bacterial? I always figured it killed off whatever it was. I'm thinking about using vinegar.

In fact, it's better than most other European countries. Pedro: But not Spain. The diet of the Mediterranean has to be one of the best. "Have to" is in the sentence "The diet of the Mediterranean has to be one of the best." I don't think necessity makes sense here, what's your idea?

i need a title for this paragraph? By 1350 Europe was bulging at the seams with people, but the knowlege and technology were not yet in place to facilitale the movement of people to distant regions to relieve overpopulation. Then, suddenly, a frightening disaster relieved the population pressure. Italian merchant shios trading in muslim ports in the eastern Mediterranean hauled rats as well as cargoes back to their home ports. These rats carried fleas infested with microbes that caused bubonic plague. The plague, or "Black Death," spread mercilessly through a populace already suffering because of indequate diet and unclean personal gygiene. When the plague struck the Italian city of Florence in 1348, for example, between half and two-thirds of the population of 85,000 died.
Smoothies and Apatite suppressants? is it bad that i can go an entire day and just eat two fat free pumpkin bread rolls (120 calories) which have been acting like an amazing apatite suppressant. and drinking two fat metabolizing fruit smoothies?

But since i started getting the pumpkin bread rolls and fat metabolizing smoothies from smoothie planet and tropical smoothie, I am no longer hungry. At all. I have also been taking 6 hydroxycut extreme pills a day, and the daily dosage of centrum complete. I work out daily, where i run three miles a day, and 5-10 mins of jumping rope.

What can I do to stay fit????? Okay, so I'm 5'0" and about 110 pounds. I look fine in clothes, but without them I notice slight love handles and a belly, which is really taking down my self confidence. I'm 15 and know the health hazards of dieting early on in life, and from 7th grade, three years ago, I've lost seven pounds by cutting down calories to 1300 per day and excersizing. I'd been doing well, but then I started slowly gaining weight. Currently I do: 100 crunches 20 lunges 20 squats 20 supermans (back workout) 30 second flutter kick (for lower abs) 15 push ups 10 minute Stretch My friend and I agreed to start walking about 30 minutes four days a week starting in five days. I've also been looking into the mediterranean diet, which is basically healthy pastas filled with vegatables (lean meats optional). But I wanted to know if any of you knew any good, quick excersizes that I can do at home without equipment to tone and slim down. As well as any ways to remain dedicated to my diet? Thanks!
Dark Circles? I have dark circles under my eyes. I drink a lot of water, have a healthy diet, sleep at least 8 hours (about 10 on weekends) and have no allergies besides Dayquil and Nyquil - so I know it must be hereditary.

If that doesn't really work, can you tell me some things that do? Thank you.
