My husband and I quit eating margarine several years ago. Now, when a restaurant serves it, instead of butter, it tastes nasty. A good-for-you alternative is olive oil, and if you absolutely have to have butter when sauteing foods, mix a little butter into the olive oil.

Restaurants should provide a choice of butter or margarine.

Some fruits balance out the bad things we eat, and doing a little personal research on food "contraindications" and benefits can mean the difference in being healthy or feeling tired all the time.

Just a note about mental attitude and its effects on health: the old anecdote, "an apple a day keeps the doctor away" and "laughter is the best medicine" are still appropriate for us, now. That's why I opened an all-comedy internet radio station. You can check it out at http://www.live365.com/stations/rockindj1

Bon Appetit! And Laugh On! Be well.
