These findings “suggest that many people in the United States may be exposed to potentially harmful levels of arsenic through rice consumption.” which I explore in my video Arsenic in Rice Milk, Rice Krispies, and Brown Rice Syrup . Do you know where Americans get most of their rice arsenic? From Rice Krispies, though brown rice crisps cereal may have twice as much, as I discuss in my video Arsenic in Rice Milk, Rice Krispies, and Brown Rice Syrup . “Organic brown rice syrup (OBRS) is used as a sweetener in organi

If you’ve ever started off really enthusiastic with a plan in the past, you know how good it can feel to forge ahead with commitment and willpower. But what if you could maintain that momentum for the long haul? You’d not only lose the weight but continue to keep it off. The fact is even ordinary people are filled with extraordinary potential and can become unstoppable if they’re equipped with the right tools and support. So often, people have great intentions when they first start on any weight loss program. However, they lose steam because they were never set up for success in the first place.

In 2001, the EPA “ adopted a new stricter standard for arsenic in drinking water,” and in 2013, the FDA proposed a legal limit for apple juice. “There are still no standards for arsenic in food products despite the fact that food sources are our main source of exposure.” Unlike the United States, China has standards. As of 2014, China set a maximum threshold of inorganic arsenic at 150 parts per billion, stricter than the World Health Organization’s limit of 200 ppb. In the United States, a 200 ppb limit wouldn’t change the cancer r

In winter, your daily brisk walk can quickly turn from “feel the burn” to “feel the brrrrr ” as temperatures plummet. But don’t let a little cold stop you from doing winter workouts!

Of course, there are ways to exercise smartly and safely that will make your winter workouts pure enjoyment. Here are
