Fabulous fats are certainly on my mind these days. I just want to do my part to let people know that we need wonderful, healthy fats for our bodies despite what you may have heard to the contrary and despite the fact that people often buy these low-fat, often-sugar-filled products.
Anyhow, yesterday I told you about Jonny Bowden’s interesting piece about fats.
Today, quite coincidentally, I ran into another aticle about fats, this one called "The Skinny on Fats," which is from the dynamic holistic health counselor, natural nutritionist and chef Andrea Beaman.
You heard me talk about her recently, because Andrea — a graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (where I just graduated) — delivered a dazzling talk on our recent graduation day.
My new friend Andrea has the kind of energy and enthusiasm that everyone should have — and you, too, could have, if you, eat healthily, as she does. See her effervescence emanate in this where she was a finalist. You’ll hear more about Andrea on Monday, because this weekend, I’m doing something completely off the wall. I’ll be spending Friday day, all day Saturday and until noon Sunday with about 23 other people at the Appalachian Mountain Club’s house on Fire Island. While there, we will get to eat delcious, healthy, wholesome food prepared by Andrea.
I’m totally psyched and excited — I get to spend a weekend of play, no work on my book (yeah!), great food, lots of bicycling, sailing, etc.
