This is a guest post from Courtney Carver at bemorewithless.com. Milk and most other dairy products are considered part of a vegetarian diet, but it’s a fine line. I stopped eating all meat except for seafood in October of 2006, and dropped seafood in October of 2009. Prior to becoming a vegetarian, I only ate…
A day and a half into my experiment with an all-liquid, water and green-vegetable juice cleanse, I’ve already learned something huge. It has nothing to do with alkalinity or raw food or how all I want to do right now is eat something (solid, for the love of god). It’s just this: Real food is…

Call it post-race blues if you like. It happened after qualifying for Boston, and now it’s happening after running my first 50-mile ultramarathon. The story is the same: A planned week off of running turns into two (or three) weeks. And then I get into watching television shows, like the important Bachelorette. This all opens…

Post by Christine Frazier. This month the USDA released the new Dietary Guidelines for Americans, and it’s out with the rigid 1992 food pyramid and in with a snazzy new vegetarian-friendly version. Yep, vegetarian-friendly, and ready to hit America with what’s been called a Michael Pollan-approach to eating better. The new guidelines call for Americans…
Alright, you’re going to love this one! Last week I talked on the phone to Brendan Brazier, the vegan professional Ironman triathlete, author of Thrive and Thrive Fitness, and creator of the Vega line of sports nutrition products that I often review on No Meat Athlete. I’ve been collecting questions ever since my first interview…
Terry Walters’ Clean Food is the best cookbook I’ve used in a long time. Why? Mainly because it’s full of recipes for real food. Clean Food isn’t about pounding soy into various meat-shapes and pretending it doesn’t taste like soy (which tastes, mostly, like nothing). It’s about getting fresh, seasonal, nutritious foods and preparing them…
While I relax with Erin and new baby Holden, several distinguished bloggers have been kind enough to guest-post here. Next up is Gena, a nutritionist and raw-food enthusiast with one of the most informative blogs out there, Choosing Raw. Here she is with an insanely helpful intro to raw foods and how they can make…

Dear Baby Fraz, I can’t believe how close we are to meeting you in person. Five weeks, the day of the Boston Marathon, assuming you don’t jump the gun. If you’re like your mother, you’ll probably leave yourself plenty of time, just in case you run into any delays on the way out. If you’re…
