This weekend I had the opportunity to head over to the 29th annual Gilroy Garlic Festival for the first time. Although I've lived close enough to attend, I had never made it there before. However when faced with promises of "food laced with over two tons of fresh garlic," I knew I had to attend.

At his seminar in Aspen, Iron Chef Michael Symon had a lot to share beyond flavor and spice. The pork-loving chef demonstrated how to make a double-bacon "BBLT" sandwich, with bacon, pork belly, lettuce, and pickled tomato, and kept the crowd entertained with his wisecracking (in addition to wanting to kill the inventor of the garlic press, Michael also wants to go after the guy who invented turkey bacon). As he paid homage to the pig with his 'wich, he also had plenty of pointers to offer when it comes to preparing meat.

A sucker for dairy products, my babe loves to take down a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch. Instead of cutting it in half with a pickle in between, I like to add some commotion to the meal. And by that, I mean locomotion.

Lifestyle Changes Essential for People at Risk for Diabetes
Lifestyle interventions that include weight loss, dietary changes, and increased physical activity can definitely help prevent or delay the progression to diabetes among at-risk people, suggest several recent studies. Weight loss through diet and exercise is especially important for overweight people with pre-diabetes.
Grain Fiber Important for Diabetes Prevention
Eating whole-grain, fiber-rich, cereal foods may help reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, indicates a 2007 study in the Archives of Internal Medicine.

HEALTH GUIDE REFERENCE FROM A.D.A.M
Heart failure (or congestive heart failure) doesn’t mean your heart has failed or stopped beating. It means that your heart, which is a muscle that pumps blood to all parts of your body, is not working as well as it should be and can’t pump as much blood as your body needs. As your heart's pumping action lessens, blood may back up in your lungs, liver, or legs.

HEALTH GUIDE REFERENCE FROM A.D.A.M
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis. It is a joint disease caused by the breakdown of cartilage -- the firm, rubbery tissue that cushions bones at joints.
Healthy cartilage allows bones to glide over one another, and cartilage absorbs energy from the shock of physical movement.
