Greetings,
Spring is here. We have some new information about Healthy Thin. And dark chocolate is healthy. Are you eating any? Still wondering which hormone test is best? We weigh in on that for the gals. We don't think microwaved food is good, but if you have to, never put it in plastic and heat it, unless you want some PCB's with your meal. Have a great week.

HORMONES: WHICH TEST IS BEST
I'm sorry to disappoint you, but after 8 years in this field, I find no convincingly clear answer. I personally have done them all and will shortly do all of them on one day to see how the results compare. But I will give you the data to help you decide if you should do a blood, urine or saliva test. I have interviewed the directors of the best labs, who offer either blood, urine or saliva testing for hormones. And not surprisingly, each assured me without a doubt that their test was the best. Otherwise, they would offer the other tests in their lab as well.

Are you eating enough dark chocolate to be healthy?
In the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Vol. 81, No. 3, 611-614, March 20 2005 issue a study was done looking at short term administration of dark chocolate. They found that there was an increase in insulin sensitivity and decrease in blood pressure! How? Why? Dark chocolate has antioxidants called flavanols that protect blood vessels and that also increase nitric oxide, which lowers blood pressure and improved insulin effects. The study compared whether you would get the same effect with white chocolate. You don't.
Conclusion: Dark, but not white chocolate decreases blood pressure and improves insulin sensitivity in healthy persons. Good news huh?

Here's a few statistics that will make you stomach cringe and your head spin:
Thousands of years ago, the Chinese discovered that the body has a communication network, separate from the normal nerve channels, that allows the body to remain in healthy balance. According to the Chinese, the communication network's pathways, which are called meridians, carry the life energy of the body, which they called chi. The life energy or chi traveling along these pathways maintains the health of each organ.
