- How Viagra Kills Your Sex Drive - by Submitted on May 04, 2012 from Angela MinelliI’m shocked to learn how many men in their 40’s, or even younger, are on the little blue pill known as Viagra. With any medication comes risk, and the side effects of Viagra are astounding, and as with all things natural, my opinion is there is a better way. All medications interfere with ...
Views: 43 - Emotions Underlie Your Eating Behaviors - by Submitted on Apr 23, 2012 from Angela MinelliIn my work as a Certified Mind-Body Nutrition Coach, the one aspect I see consistently amongst my clients is how their emotions impact their eating, and yet most times they are completely oblivious to it until I point it out to them. When people approach me about working together, they almost ...
Views: 37 - How Pleasure Fuels My Metabolic Power - by Submitted on Feb 24, 2012 from Angela MinelliFor a long while, I’ve been on a quest to prove what my mentor, Marc David, taught me about pleasure.

Views: 49 - The Truth about Cats and Dogs (and Weight Loss) - by Submitted on Feb 08, 2012 from Angela MinelliHave you ever noticed how easy it is for pets to lose weight? I have, and I’ve always been envious of it. A few years ago, my cat, Molly, who has since passed on, had a few extra pounds on her. She was a petite-sized cat and a few extra pounds on her was like 50 on me, but it always struck ...
Views: 35 - Why I Never "Fall Off The Wagon" - by Submitted on Jan 10, 2012 from Angela MinelliI was out to lunch last week with a friend who was complaining that she gained 4 pounds because she stopped counting calories and therefore fell off the proverbial wagon. She’d been logging her food religiously, right up til Christmas, and then, as she put it, “All hell broke loose.” One of ...
Views: 75 - Are Sugar Cravings Really the Enemy? The #1 Top Tip to Manage Sugar Cravings - by Submitted on Jul 31, 2011 from Angela MinelliMost people think so, but I have an entirely different take on this topic which is nothing new because I’m generally the misfit in most circles. But I do consider myself the Queen of Cravings, or at least I used to be. I’ve craved it all. Sugar, chocolate, carbs – just about anything ...
Views: 116 - The Great Dairy Debate - by Submitted on Jul 10, 2011 from Angela MinelliMilk. It does a body a good. Doesn’t it? For the past 6 months, I’ve been dairy free – for the most part. Sometimes it sneaks its way in unbeknownst to me. As diligent as I am about reading food labels, there are occasions when I miss an ingredient and before I know it, I’m eating it ...

They block the receptor sites in your cells for naturally produced hormones to lock into and interrupt ...
