Monday Motivation - There's Nothing Stopping You

I love the Houston Texans! This has been a fun season. The Texans won the AFC South division this weekend and will host a playoff game next week. I also love our head coach, DeMeco Ryans. As a player, DeMeco Ryans was an All-American at Alabama in college and then an All-Pro for the Texans in the NFL. Given his background, his ascent as a top NFL head coach is unsurprising.

Say What? Fruit is Making Us Fat?

Is Fruit Making Me Fat?

Excessive consumption of fructose, which is the sugar found in fruit, is the #1 sugar source causing obesity in America. But fruit IS NOT making you fat! Fructose in the form of high-fructose corn syrup found in sugary beverages and processed foods is the leading cause of obesity in Americans.

TLDR… eat the fruit!!
