    Say cheese for the health of it! - Yale-New Haven Hospital

    Helpful to those who are lactose intolerant. I am slightly lactose intolerant...but I am generally fine with yogurt and certain types of cheeses. This explains why...

    Quoted: The longer a cheese is aged, the less lactose it contains. Therefore some lactose intolerant people will have no trouble (and some will have less trouble) eating aged cheeses.
    ...
    Commonly aged cheeses:
    * asiago
    * cheddar
    * gruyere
    * parmesan
    * reggiano
    * romano

    Brown rice vs. white rice? - Yahoo! Answers

    Brown rice has the same amount of carbs as white rice. But, the extra fiber in brown rice slows down the absorption of the carbs.

    Quoted: Since brown rice still has the bran intact, it is a much better source of fiber. In fact a cup of brown rice has 3.5 grams of fiber while white rice has less than one gram of fiber.
    ...
    Another benefit from eating brown rice is caused by the fiber slowing down the absorption of carbohydrates. This will help tame the blood-sugar roller coaster that can happen from a high sugar-low fiber meal.

    Evolution | Human races or human race? | Economist.com

    The study found that genetically, all humans are pretty much the same. But, there are some differences regarding the genes that control metabolism. Might this mean that the ideal nutrition program varies from individual to individual?

    Quoted: Dr Quintana-Murci found 55 genes that showed evidence of having undergone significant localised evolution.
    ...
    A further six regulated metabolism in various ways, probably in response to the different diets enjoyed by different people. (Some of these genes are of wider interest as they are involved in obesity, diabetes and hypertension.)

    if you're trying to pack on the pounds...

    Quoted: When the nation’s unofficial food police, the folks at the Center for Science in the Public Interest, evaluated popular restaurant dishes such as fettuccine Alfredo (“heart attack on a plate”) and Kung Pao chicken (“more than a day’s worth of salt”), the results made headlines and turned heads. But—how does that saying go?—you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
