Tufts University Health and Nutrition Letter

When because of health issues you start watching everything that goes into your body very carefully one soon realizes how much miss information there is out there in the health and nutrition sector. For someone else this may not be a big deal but for me a mistake in my diet could cause significant physical pain, so I listen closely when I am listen to a medical professional talk about where they get their information from and then seek out those resources for myself.

One such resource is pictured below. I learned about the Tufts University Health and Nutrition Letter from one of the parents at a soccer game who is also living with a rare disease.

The Tufts University Health and Nutrition Letter has for the last 25 years thoroughly researched and reported on the health and nutrition of food we eat every day. So when my first copy came I snatched it out of DawnMarie's hand like it was a stack of $100 bills and said, "yessss its here!"

I find I have little control over my life now a days, which is unsettling for a control freak like me. One thing that helps me balance that lack of control is information and diet. The more I understand food and control what I eat to maximize the health of my broken body, the better I feel emotionally.

Plus after reading this months newsletter I now know that Cocoa is good for you (at least until the next study says it isn't)!
