Processed foods get a bad rap, and in many cases, justifiably so, but are all processed foods bad for us? Also this week: the Paleo Diet, low-fat crockpot cooking, easy ways to get flax seeds into your diet, and much more.

 
In the Spotlight
 What Are Processed Foods?
I often write about processed foods and how they are usually bad for your health. One of my readers wrote me to ask what exactly processed foods are. While you'll expect most processed foods to be unhealthy, you might be surprised that some processed foods are good for you.

Eat Like a Caveman?
It's called the Paleo diet, the Cave Man Diet, the Stone Age Diet, NeaderThin, and the Hunter-Gatherer Diet. Could it be a good idea for you? At first it may sound crazy to take a big leap backwards in our eating! But I've come to the conclusion that even if we don't choose to go "all the way back" to eating like hunter-gatherers, we can learn quite a lot from them when it comes to good nutrition.

Low Fat Crockpot Cooking
As a relative newcomer to the crockpot, or slow cooker, I still get a kick out of coming home to a fully cooked meal, save a quick side dish of rice or pasta. I can't believe I spent so many years in the kitchen without such an appliance. Better yet, I've also discovered that the crockpot is an excellent way to prepare low-fat meals that are rich, hearty and satisfying.
