There are almost as many ways to cook bacon as there are slices in the package. Some home cooks like to air-fry bacon or deep-fry it, and others are keen on cooking bacon in cast iron. Hurried cooks often microwave the meat, while those who have the time occasionally swear by sous vide. With all of these options on the breakfast table, how is a hungry pork fan supposed to choose? To help you make the most of every single strip, we tapped chefs to tell us the biggest mistakes they see people make when it comes to bacon. Then,…

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for overall well-being and disease prevention.Supplement only if you’re not eating enough foods containing omega-3s.The best time to take an omega-3 supplement is with dietary fat, as it is absorbed better. We’re proponents of getting your nutrients via food, but we know that sometimes it can be difficult to do.

Omega-3 fatty acid supplements, in…
Using it as a tool to inform your fitness routine, HRV can help identify how well you’re tolerating your overall load, offering insight into intensity, recovery, and stress management. But it’s important not to give it too much weight; instead, it should just be one part of the equation when it comes to determining your body’s readiness to perform.“HRV should complement training decisions, not lead them,” says Davidson. You want to consider it alongside objective performance markers like power, speed, and strength, and subjective measures like perceived exertion, muscle soreness, and motivation. Taken together, this can help you create a…

Be the first to rate & review! This garlic-Parmesan melting cauliflower turns a simple head of cauliflower into a stunning side dish. Searing the wedges creates deep golden flavor, while a garlicky Parmesan sauce bakes into every crevice for a tender, spoon-soft texture. It’s an easy yet impressive side that feels right at home on both weeknights and special occasions. Look for Parmesan cheese labeled vegetarian if you avoid cheese made with animal rennet.

Walnuts, almonds, and hazelnuts are put to the test for erectile and sexual function, sperm count, and semen quality. In 2013, I posted a video based on a study that found that men with erectile dysfunction who ate 100 grams of pistachios (a little more than three handsful) a day for three weeks had “a significant improvement in erectile function.” It’s always nice to see a whole-food intervention have clinical effects, and I was curious to revisit the topic and see what’s been published since. Even if you ignore all the lab animal studies on hazelnuts improving the function of…

While I love a good home-cooked meal, when it comes to eating out, I’m never going to say no to a trip through the drive-thru. One of my all time favorite foods is a Double-Double from In-N-Out, and I’m a sucker for a Chick-fil-A Peach Milkshake come summertime. And, when Taco Bell has Cheesy Dipping Burritos on the menu, it’s safe to say I’m the first one in the drive-thru line, ready to stock up. So, when I learned that an international chain recently surpassed McDonald’s as the largest fast food chain globally and it was opening its first U.S. locations…
