How about fish for dinner? Fish is a good choice, right? After all, physicians and other healthcare experts say we should eat less red meat and more fish. Some experts think we can cut our risk of heart disease in half by eating two fish dinners a week. It's a good source of protein, too. But you might question the consumption of seafood with reports from the Environmental Protection Agency about the dangers associated with eating fish. According to the latest edition of the Medical Minute, a service of Milton S. Hershey Medical Center, these seemingly contradictory recommendations can make it difficult to sort the risk from the benefit. Here's the problem: when we consume fish, we absorb whatever toxins the fish have stored from their polluted environments.

Chances are you are on a diet -- or you were on one in the last year. Tens of millions of Americans are dieting at any given time. Despite the attention we pay to dieting, one-third of us are obese and another third of us are overweight. According to the latest edition of the Medical Minute, a service of Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center, obesity is such a big problem it may soon pass heart disease as the nation's No. 1 killer. For attaining and maintaining a healthy weight, the simple math is: to lose weight, you must eat less than you burn off. Most of us can cut back for a couple days, but most diets fail due to inconsistency. It's important to remember that there are no quick fixes or rapid weight loss schemes that give long lasting results.
