Dear EarthTalk: I recently had a tissue mineral analysis indicating that my levels of the nutritional element, molybdenum, were off the chart. I believe this may be leaching from my stainless steel cookware. Is this element toxic to my body? – Barbara, Fruitland Park, FL Cast Iron is great! ...

Submitted by Alicia Rusch, Saginaw, MI Forty pounds later and only able to walk and do mild work outs with my pilate ball, Lyme Disease has taught this once athletic outdoor and spontaneous adventure enthusiast a great deal about patience and appreciation for even the smallest blessings...

We’re talking some serious warmth with Sugoi’s MidZero top. It’s a nice heavy weight fabric with a thermal backing and when you pick it up it just feels substantial. It’s easy on the eyes, too – very flattering when you have it on because it swoops and curves where you do with no bulges or [...]

Some people remember exactly where they were when JFK was shot or when OJ went on his joy ride. It's fitting for me that I remember EXACTLY where I was when I first discovered Women's Adventure magazine. I was in the Patagonia store in Oxnard, California on vacation. I was ecstatic to find such a great magazine and hav...e been an unofficial promoter since then. So happy that there's a great publication out there for us outdoor women! THANK YOU!Read More

When I was four years old, I decided to pet a bumblebee. My sister shrieked and ran from her swing to stop me. All I could think was that I’d need to hurry and grab the fuzzy ball if I was to know what it feels like to hold it, all soft and furry in my hands. ...

Could've been worse. No this isn't my bike. I got hit by a car today. No, I didn’t get hurt, not really beyond a bruise or two. And my bike is okay, just a little askew. So I’m one lucky cyclist. It...

OMG! Been there...maybe not as seriously, (I rode the bike another 10 km before calling someone for help because I couldn't stop the bleeding) but the car went through a red light, jumped the curb, where the bike path was, I was clipped in and had to take a serious dive attached to the bike...no one stopped, gushing blood, majorly scarred knees now, but...had my helmut on and what goes around comes around....one day.....

Submitted by Kathleen Vacek It’s day ten of an eleven-day, 500-mile bicycle tour on Lake Superior, and it’s the longest, toughest day yet. Trying to live out our ethic of simplicity, my husband and I are riding our everyday commuting bikes: 1970’s Schwinns converted to single speeds. Tha...

Submitted by Heidi Dauberman It was still dark at 6am that time of year and the air was chilly and moist. Riders gathered in front of the driveway. Some of them were already as enthusiastic looking as their jerseys, others demanded to know when we’d be stopping for coffee. ...
