HOME COUNTRY: Dewey’s a community project.

  Dewey’s a community project. He’s our resident accident-prone guy who managed to get his dad’s pickup stuck in the county’s only mud hole during a six-year drought, release 300 steers from the feedlot onto the interstate, and create about a ton of tossed salad with hot oil dressing on the on ramp. Quite a few of us have scratched our heads over helping Dewey find something he could do without causing widespread destruction.

  Last year, at Doc’s suggestion, Dewey fixed up his dad’s pickup and became what Doc later called an “entre-manure,” by taking manure from feedlots and the dairy and delivering it as fertilizer to people’s gardens. The problem is, no one needs fertilizer in their gardens in winter.

As a Cardiologist, I Know the Dietary Guidelines Are Failing America’s Hearts

By Bret Scher, MD

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States.

As a practicing cardiologist for more than 20 years, I’ve watched patients do everything “by the book.” They eat according to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans and still see their weight climb, blood pressure rise, and heart health deteriorate.

The problem isn’t their effort. It’s the guidance, which promotes high-carb, low-fat diets that can actually worsen heart disease. Many assume that by following the government’s recommendations they can improve their health. Too often, the opposite is true.
