Healthy Eats Here! ~ Know
Where the Health to Eat
Dine
out. Stay fit. Eat
happy.
Healthy
Eats Here! is an online organic restaurant guide years in the
making,
one I began researching during a
travel-intense career.
My
name is Holly Hickman. I love good food and am not shy about it, being
half-Texan, half-Italian and all-appetite. I'm also a
Columbia-trained journalist who
has
logged more
miles than I can count, having worked as a science and radio reporter
for a major network. (That pic is from assignment in Cuba.)
Even with all my travels, I've been
able to keep my
weight down, my energy
up, and the quality of my restaurant food pristine and delicious. What's my secret? Over the
years, I have compiled a list of restaurants that serve real food,
raised right - my own personal healthy
dining guide.
Despite
all the restauranting I've done over the years, I've been able
to keep off more than 40 pounds -- weight I lost nearly a decade
ago. And
that's eating out a lot and
eating real meals -- no dry little salads; thank you very much.
I've learned to
achieve my health and aesthetic goals without sacrificing taste or
quality.
You can do this, too. All you
have to do is eat real food, food that has been raised right. And my healthy dining guide and I can show you
where to find it, no
matter where you are in the country. This is immediate,
actionable intelligence on the best food in the country.
I
should tell you one more thing: I'm a health nut, the kind who digs up
primary studies and interviews scientists about nutrition on a regular
basis.
Why WHERE You
Eat Matters as much as WHAT You Eat
We don't all travel or eat out as much as
I have, but over a lifetime, the
little meals here and there add up -- sometimes to dire consequences.
I have reason to be especially concerned about the links between diet
and health: cancer
has wrecked my family seven times. I can't control
toxins in the environment. I can't control genes. I can
control my food and keep the
carcinogens out.
My own
father passed away, at 61, of a
brain tumor. He was an otherwise healthy man who ate poor-quality
meats. My step-father, seen with me below, has diabetes.
He travels a
great deal and eats out at least five times a week. I don't want to lose another dad, so finding restaurants
that support vibrant well-being has become imperative.
What we eat has a profound
impact on our bodies, and I'm not just talking about weight.
If
I've got a tumor brewing somewhere, I don't want to feed it growth
hormones (the kind given to many of the factory-farmed animals
restaurants use), and I don't want
to ingest synthetic pesticides and other poisons. This is why I seek
out clean foods.
Unfortunately, your typical restaurant serves ingredients
that are not good for us.
What's really
in most restaurant food:
» Meat from factory
farms.
These
animals are often fed pesticide-laden grains, ground up animal parts, chicken
feces, plus waste products from food, drink and candy factories.
They're given artificial growth hormones and
antibiotics, the latter because of the filthy conditions
in which many of them are raised.
Remember that whatever those animals
ingest, you ingest. And
that you can't wash the pesticide
off the pork chop.
» Vegetables that have
been sprayed with synthetic pesticides, herbicides and/or
fungicides, and often imported from Mexico or China.
Yum.
» Dairy from cows raised
in those same factory farms.
We've
already covered their typical
diet. Dairy cows are also often injected with hormones to keep
that milk pumping. Do I really want to eat those growth
hormones? Especially there's any possibility of a tumor growing
somewhere?
No, thank you.
» Prepackaged chemical
concoctions that they nuke and fling onto a plate.
I like my food fresh. And made of
food, please.
Let's start chewing the
right thing -- and the delicious thing, too.

The Good
News: You can
eat out and enjoy clean, delicious, healthy meals. You just have
to know who's doing the cooking, and who's doing the farming.
That's exactly the point of this healthy dining guide.
I've
done diligent research: I started by contacting hundreds of
farmers and fishermen across the country, all of whom focus on
organics, sustainability and pristine growing conditions. I asked
them, "To which restaurants do you sell your meat?" After some
prodding,
they told me, and I went and personally ate at many of those places.
All of these eateries focus on pristine, high-quality
ingredients. Some are
fine dining places. Others are burger joints. Some offer phenomenal wood-oven pizzas, while
others cook up sustainably-caught fish
that was swimming in local waters just hours ago. I've
even got a
few ice cream parlors in
there. Healthy, green dining options abound.
There is no
other healthy dining guide book out there like
this. Healthy Eats Here! lists
hundreds
of restaurants -- from Maui to Maine -- in one handy-dandy
place.

In Healthy Eats Here!, I offer plenty
of juicy tidbits about these healthy restaurants, telling you:
if the beef at a
particular place is grass-fed and/or
organic;
if the chicken is pastured
(and the difference between "pastured," "free-range,"
"grass-fed" and "organic");
if
the vegetables are local and/or
organic;
if there are good microbrews and regional wines;
if there are
glorious vegetarian or vegan
options;
and if there's good
chocolate! (It's a health food, remember?)
I tell you the best
places to sit, the best dishes to order, and
I give you links to their farmers'
web sites whenever possible.
I also
give you all the standard info: addresses, price ranges, hours...plus
links to maps, to the restaurants' web sites, and to sites that let you
make reservations rightthissecond.
These are unbiased listings: these restaurants
did NOT pay to be included. They did not know I was reviewing and
researching them, and the ones I
visited -- and I've eaten at a lot of these places -- never comped my
meals or gave me a discount. They simply had no idea what I was
up to.
