letter from the editor

EDITOR IN CHIEF Each year in this final issue, my goal is to provide articles and info to help guide anyone reflecting on how they can make improvements to make the upcoming year better than the preceding one.

research roundup

title: Improving Fruit and Vegetable Intake Attenuates the Genetic Association with Long-Term Weight Gain journal: The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (Link: paleom.ag/fruitandveggies) ERIN'S TAKE Intake of fruits and vegetables has long been inadequate among most Americans, and even lower in older populations.

A well-executed ancestral diet typically falls well above the national guidelines of five servings per day. STUDY 14,251 subjects 8,943 women and 5,308 men European ancestry Free from…
