to make you think

1. Nutrition Unplugged looks at the positive sides of the Paleo Diet.  Spoiler – she’s still not a huge fan, but I think this post is very fair.
2. Love and Zest talks a bit about protein.
3. Oh My Veggies debunks some common myths about sugar.  I hear #2 and 3 all the time at work and it drives me crazy.
4. Slate published a really great autobiographical piece on “Why Poor People Stay Poor.”
