I have several home blends of herbal teas, which I'd like to find the nutritional information for. But, so far all I've been able to find are sites selling the herbs, not the actual nutritional information for them. Anyone have a recommendation where I might be able to look up this information?? I'm not so worried about…

http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=eight-glasses-water-per-day I came across this article during some research on how much water I really need to drink each day since most days I struggle with consuming 64 oz of water.

I crave sugar-y foods all the time. Even when I'm not hungry. If I know it is just down the hallway or somewhere in the building I feel that I need to have a small piece of it. Why do I always want sugar foods? What can I do to stop this craving?

Caloreis for chicken noodle soup be, without the chicken?
Weird question I know. But I love to go to Panera, and thei chicken noodle soup rings up at 120calories per serving. Well I'm weird and can't stand the chicken breast chunks that they put in there. So I literally spoon them out onto my plate and skip it. I figure there's probably about 2 ounces of chicken that I take out.…

Where can you find it? I looked on their official website at the store locator, and there are no stores listed in the 25 mile radius, but I've found those kinds of things aren't always accurate.

What in the world do you do with the other half?!?!
I oftentimes see in people's diaries (both on here and in other media places) that they log .5 of a banana or .5 of an apple. If you are one of these people...what do you do with the other half of the fruit? I have always been curious... I'm not calling anyone out or saying anything against only half servings of fruit. If…

Jersey Mike's Sub in a Tub
Ok. This sounded like a good idea.. no bun, and all the meat and cheese from an Original Italian. (390 calories, instead of 680). And, actually it WAS pretty good, once I took the 5 or 6 minutes it took to cut up all the stuff that was stacked on top of my lettuce. I think they should maybe chop this up for me, since I'm…

http://abclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=news/health&id=8920784 Haven't read the actual study. Interesting that the article seems to interpret "junk food" as "high fat". Hopefully the actual study itself is a little more specific.

Hard to eat healthy
So, I started "dieting" again recently and exercising and for me dieting is just eating way less than what I was before. I exercise 5 days a week, and am within my calorie range about 98% of the time. My problem is, eating out. I come from a family who eats out everywhere and very very often, then when I hang out with my…
