Looking together in the same direction.

Looking together in the same direction.

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

Meat is the new tobacco

Today is another Medical FYI day.

     Two new research studies show that too much protein in middle age is as bad as smoking.  Both studies were reported in the journal of Cell Metabolism.  Here is the link from Medical News Today.

     Sorry about not blogging lately.  I am still recovering from the same running injury.  I took 4 days off from all forms of exercise, even stretching and foam rolling, deciding on my own that if something hurts, I shouldn't be doing it.  I think I have turned the corner.  I started stretching, strengthening, and foam rolling again yesterday.  I won't try running again until all soreness is gone.  I did a short run/walk last Saturday which really set me back.  I learned my lesson this time.  Of course, I am grumpy living the life of a couch-potato.
Plus, unfortunately, I want to eat everything in sight and have been.
