KFAI's Indian Uprising for April 3rd, 2005

World's healthiest foods: Eating to Live (Leading degenerative diseases in Indian country can be fought with healthy diets) by Brenda Norrell for Indian Country, March 2, 2005

"Healthy diets feature whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, legumes and fish, and slow down aging.  Further, studies show that pesticides and other environmental toxins used to grow and manufacture conventional processed foods impact health negatively. "

Water, anyone? By Jean Johnson for Indian Country Today, March 2, 2005

"Everyone's hands, it seems, are permanently curled around soda pop cans. But before ossification sets completely in, we still have a chance and a choice. Perhaps it's time to give nature's elixir a second chance: time to take Mother Earth up on her bargain and dip into some cool, clear water."  http://www.Indiancountry.com/content.cfm?id=1096410431

Fry bread: the official bread of diabetes (Letters to the Editor) by Maurene Denzel to the Dakota Journal, March 11-18, 2005

"As I scanned the front page of the Dakota Journal, Feb. 18-25, I was struck by the irony in these two articles that were printed side by side.  They were, Diabetes: What you should know and Fry bread voted state bread."
