2009I should start by saying that I’m not a vegetarian. However, since moving to an anti-inflammatory diet I find myself eating less meat and relying more and more on beans and legumes as a source of lean protein.

2009
Several months ago I was contacted by a popular men’s health magazine by a journalist writing an article about how to pick a good personal trainer. Having known and worked (both out and with) many of them, I was happy to share my top tips. Imagine my surprise when the magazine came out and I was identified as a “fitness expert.” I almost shat myself. While I could be considered an expert in some fields – toddler toy mediation comes to mind – in fitness I am about as non-expert as they come. Dr. J, an experienced and credentialed surgeon and bona fide health expert, reminded me of this tendency of both the media and shameless (or shady) self-promoters to crown dubious health and fitness “experts” in his recent post on the subject.
