Develop the habit of eating an excellent, high protein breakfast with no toast, bacon, or sausage. Eat a high quality lunch, ideally composed of a salad with protein such as chicken or fish. Eat a light dinner, primarily composed of vegetables with a little protein, but no breads, rolls, or pasta. [2004] - Brian Tracy

Baking soda is a handy cleaning product, because it is not abrasive and is excellent for dissolving grease and removing molds. In the mouth, however, this ability to dissolve fats and grease appears to damage the beneficial proteins that are the foundation of healthy biofilm that covers teeth and stops sensitivity, enamel erosion, and gum recession—particularly for mouths that are acidic or dry. Baking soda appears to strip this protective protein layer away in some mouths, which leaves teeth and gums more vulnerable to mechanical, thermal, and chemical assault. [2018] - Ellie Phillips

Being a market expert--not just a product expert--means being more knowledgeable than any of your competitors. You need to take the time to collect market data and build your core story or your stadium pitch. Today the Internet makes market data readily available. To get the most powerful market data, the trick is to look at things over time. Find market data that makes your product or service more important. [2007] - Chet Holmes

I recommend consuming little or no fish and strongly advise against consuming any of those species of fish notoriously high in mercury, such as shark, swordfish, mackerel, pike, and bluefish. The amount of DHA can vary significantly depending on the fish and the location. Farm-raised fish such as tilapia has none, and even some salmon (especially farm-raised) has very little DHA. Most of us can assure nutritional adequacy of EPA and DHA without using fish oil, by just adding a small amount of a vegan EPA or DHA supplement. A study showed that 100 mg of DHA daily increased the omega-3 index from 4.8 (poor) to 8.4 (optimal) percent. [2011] - Joel Fuhrman

A great ploy is going to places where men are supposed to be helpless and look helpless. If a chick doesn't take pity on you and offer her help, ask for it. In the supermarket (women love men who cook), you might ask her for example, "Uh, excuse me, do you know if this mango has to be cooked before eating?" In the laundromat (women also adore men who do their laundry), you might say, for example, "Gosh, do you think it's OK if I put this red T-shirt in with my white dress shirts?" [2006] - Leil Lowndes
