A comment posted on Dr. Mercola's blog by "Dr. David Spitz":
In the 1960's only 5% of meals were eaten out. During special occasions, it was a 'treat' and something really different to go to a restaurant. Most of the time it was a mom & pop place with good 'old fashioned' cooking--(not that it's really good for you anyway--but better than fast food).Today, almost 60% of meals are eaten out of the home. Restaurants will do whatever it take to get you there; hence the Burger King commercial enticing 'real men' to eat their cardiac special...enough fat, salt and who knows what to stop your heart.As usual, it boils down to common sense:
Eat breakfast at home
Never use salt
Bring your own lunch to work
Eat Dinner at home with your family
Once per week go out to dinner, but watch for the oily, salty, fried food.
Don't drink soda---drink 2-3 liters of pure water per day
Eat 5-6 smaller meals per day...snack with fruits, veggies an nuts. You will save money, save your waistline,,,,add years to your life.
