March 1, 2012 — Starting today, new nutrition labels will appear on raw meat and poultry.
A new USDA rule says nutrition information must be available for most ground meat and ground poultry, and for popular cuts of meat and poultry.
Before now, the USDA required nutrition labels only on meat and poultry with added ingredients, such as marinade or stuffing, says Elisabeth Hagen, MD, USDA under secretary for food safety.
“It is not that the labels are different, it’s that you will be seeing them on products you haven’t seen them on before,” Hagen tells WebMD.
Well a dieters worst nightmare or biggest dream depending on how you look at it I have 1992 boxes f Girl Scout Cookies in my living room. Come on this is crazy! I thought I was doing really good only 5 cookies so far until 2 days ago. I had a horrible day of grumpy people and I caved and ate 1 sleeve of peanut butter Do-Si-Do’s. I felt horrible after it my body went into a mini shock over all the sugar I just ate and worst of all I felt bad about caving and eating because I felt bad.

MONDAY, Feb. 13 –Getting divorced at a younger age causes more harm to health than getting divorced later in life, perhaps because older people have more coping skills to deal with the stress of divorce, a new study suggests.
Michigan State University sociologist Hui Liu analyzed the self-reported health of 1,282 people who took part in a long-term national survey called Americans’ Changing Lives. She compared the health status of people who remained married during the 15-year study period and those who got divorced.
Among people born in the 1950s, those who got divorced between ages 35 and 41 had more health problems than those who got divorced between the ages of 44 and 50.
