It's the middle of the morning and my stomach's rumbling. What should I eat? Well, there are some nice chocolate chip cookies in the pantry, but they'll cost me a lot of calories for not many nutrients. I think I'll check out the fruit bowl instead. Find out how to choose foods that offer the maximum nutrients for the number of calories they contain.

 
In the Spotlight
 Nutrient Density
How do you decide which foods you want to eat? Flavor? Texture? Convenience? Comfort? Many people choose the foods they eat based on immediate gratification, without much thought about the long-term effects of their selections. That often results in choosing foods that taste good, but are not good for you.

Beginning a Low-Carb Diet
It's September, and even if we're not in school, many of us still associate it with the beginning of the school year. The summer is over, and we're shifting gears. Perhaps it's time to make a fresh start on our ways of eating and exercising as well. Let's go back and review some of the basics, and begin anew! Be sure to get support -- changes are much more likely to "take" if we connect with others doing the same thing.

Video: How to Make Vegetarian Sushi
Think sushi is too tricky to make at home? Watch this video to learn how to make healthy, low-fat vegetarian sushi at home, and you'll be rolling in no time! My favorite fillings for vegetarian sushi are avocado and tofu (yes, tofu!), but feel free to get creative and experiment to find what you like best. Try combining, cream cheese, tempeh, carrots, bell peppers, cucumber or sweet potatoes.
