DailyDirt: New Year's Diets...

from the urls-we-dig-up dept

Maybe you've noticed your favorite gym is a bit more crowded recently. There are a lot of new year's resolutions for changing unhealthy habits, and eating better should be pretty high on that list. Here are just a few interesting articles on some dietary changes.

• If you can't avoid the call of edible products from convenient vending machines, you can at least try to pick some of the more healthy options from these food dispensers. B-7 will sink your battleship, but the granola bars aren't too bad. [url]
• Taste aversion works on wild predators, preventing lions from devouring domesticated cattle. Trying something similar on people probably isn't a good idea, though... [url]
• Weight Watchers is recalculating some of the formulas for its food program -- so that not all calories are equal. Not surprisingly, the company has filed a patent application on its new method. (NB: PointsPlus is not another social network.) [url]

By the way, StumbleUpon can also recommend some good Techdirt articles, too.
