Although foods containing dietary cholesterol are unlikely to significantly affect high cholesterol levels, a person should avoid foods that are high in saturated fats.

Remember those days back in the Spring of 2020 when the world moved from its usual arc around the sun? When we were told to be still, to go nowhere, to “shelter in place.” I do. I folded in on myself. I simplified. I ate only fruits and vegetables, seeds, grains, and legumes. I stopped drinking alcohol—why bother! My cookie habit ended because, well, every bakery was closed. I hiked often. The scale rewarded me with downward trending numbers. Weight […]

Deputies responded to a wedding ceremony in Longwood on Feb. 19 after multiple guests reported “feeling weird.” One guest told officials he felt like he had “drugs inside him” after eating food and […]

Cholesterol performs important functions, including: However, high cholesterol in the blood may cause health issues, such as high blood pressure and atherosclerosis.

Last year at this time, optimistic trend forecasters predicted that the cork would burst from the bottle by summer. With vaccines in arms, food culture would vibrate in a robust economy. American menus would be full of innovation driven by waves of international travel, and a new generation of digital-native cooks would rewrite the rules. Clearly, the prediction game can be a losing one. But so what if things didn’t turn out like everyone thought they would? Trying to forecast […]

Last month, I crowded into a wooden booth at NoLIta’s Thai Diner with the chefs Kia Damon, Andrés Tonatiuh Galindo Maria, Chintan Pandya and Missy Robbins; the pastry chef Melissa Weller; and the T writer-at-large Ligaya Mishan for a languorous weekday lunch. Between slurps of fantastic khao soi and tom yum soup, we compiled a list — similar to others T has done on architecture, interiors and art — of the 25 essential things to eat in New York City right […]
