Greeks bearing yogurt
Both Greek and regular yogurt, in their plain, nonfat or low-fat forms, can be part of a healthful diet. They're low in calories and packed with calcium and live bacterial cultures. But condensed Greek yogurt ("Grogurt") - which is strained extensively to remove much of the liquid whey, lactose, and sugar, giving it its thick consistency - does have an undeniable edge. |

See if you can pass this very simple fitness test
Someone recently emailed me some weight-loss tips and told me I needed to read them in order to lose a few pounds. I read them, then I went to the scales. I’d gained a pound. I don’t think that was because of the Snicker’s bar I was eating while reading them, either. |

One wrong answer saved his life
Whether they involve drawing circles around an answer or drawing blood, most people don't enjoy tests. Tony Allman is alive today because he gave one wrong answer on a test. The 53-year-old McMinn County Sheriff's Department sergeant used to think cancer was a death sentence until he came face to face with the disease. Now, he's a firm believer in the power of early detection. |
