Today's post focuses on to two different topics I would like to direct some attention towards:
1. The quality of our food and its affect on our health, and...
2. The strength of the media and its tendency to point fingers at "unclean food production and distribution".
First, I have always been a big advocate of eating meat, but not just any meat will do. Higher quality meats will guarantee that your health is bullet-proof. Red meat supplies high quality B-vitamins, iron, and ALL essential amino acids. As a matter of fact, if you want to gain muscle, you have to eat it. It's that simple.
However, I have been getting more and more convinced that our health freedoms are under attack by both increased government regulations and lower health guidelines. Funny, the FDA is continually demonstrating their lack of competence in being able to make sure our foods are safe for us.
With the recent gluten issues found in the Chinese wheat imports, how can you not wonder about what might be getting into food and is this food really "fit for human consumption"? One thing is sure, if you don't take control of your health and, instead, only rely on the FDA to determine what is healthy for you, be prepared for a huge let down and possible (and perhaps likely) exposure to harmful food additives.
I wrote this article in response to the recall of nearly 22 million pounds of ground beef from Topps Meat Co. The full article can be read on MarketWatch.com:
E. coli fears trigger large recall of ground beef
On another note, be weary of the news media and any companies that may benefit from the popular news sources. I was just reading one of the comments in response to the article below that was posted on MarketWatch and found that a company named BIONICHE (BNC.TO) has successfully "vaccinated" beef cattle for a specific E. coli strain.
Beef Cattle Vaccinated Against E. coli O157:H7
Be careful with today's media my friends, it is a powerful tool of influence...

How low can you go? I just got a cool little article delivered straight to my email stating the following: "Gold Prices Jump to $750 an Ounce". Now, with a title like that, I couldn't but read the entire page displayed on The Associated Press.
Friday gold prices hit the highest mark since 1980 and I am really wondering what the next two years will bring the economy and most importantly, the true value of the U.S. Dollar.
I read about 30 finance articles per day and I can honestly say that within the last month I've seen a dramatic increase in the coverage of sub-prime, gold, Fed, and currency type topics. Maybe it's time for me to open up more books on gold and foreign investing. I think so.
When it comes down to interest rates and the true value of the U.S. Dollar, I just keep hearing an internal repetition, "How low can you go, how low can you go". It's like the finance limbo!

| Anyone on their way to leading a successful life is no doubt short on time and this article reflects the issue of time shortage amongst businessmen. We at FitBusinessman.com would like to tell you that working out with a hectic schedule is an easy task, however, that simply isn't true. Success when it comes to your health and fitness requires the same discipline when planning your day as your business requires. In this article we show you the importance of planning your day hour by hour, and how taking 5 minutes today to plan tomorrow could be the difference between fitting in a workout and missing it.
