"America [is] the nation of the overfed and undernourished. We are overfed on empty calories. Overfed on unhealthy saturated fat. Overfed on carbohydrates. Underfed on protein. Underfed on vitamins and minerals. Underfed on nutrients that help sustain life. And overfed on junk that takes life away." --Bill Phillips in his 10-year old book: "Body for Life."

This book was recommended to me by a fitness friend. A few things are a little out-dated (not enough variety in the exercise program for starters). But all in all it's a decent book that's clearly made a significant difference in many people's lives.

More about those things in upcoming blogs.
