November 2, 2007 |
Plain and simple: a healthy diet is crucial in warding off ailments like heart disease and cancer. People don’t doubt this truth, but many choose not to act on it anyway. It’s tough to limit candy, chips and red meat from our diet because for so long we have associated those foods with rewards and feelings of well being.

But before you assume complete responsibility for what goes in your mouth, think twice — your social circles may have more to do your the eating choices than you think. Odds are good your best friend is not spoon-feeding you ice cream at the neighborhood Memorial Day barbecue, and your nephew certainly isn’t asking you to dip into his Halloween candy. Yet the people we interact with every day have a lot to do with what we eat. Eat to satisfy your body, not your friends (CalorieLab Calorie Counter News)
