And finally we closed the show with one of our favorite regulars Nicci Micco from EatingWell magazine stopped by to share all she knows about organic food and the importance of eating local.

Eating organic berries instead of conventional ones can reduce your exposure to pesticides, and recent research suggests that it also may give you a nutrient boost.

According to Marissa Lippert's, M.S., R.D. article in this month's Eating Well magazine the bottom line is...“Eating more fresh fruits and vegetables in general [not necessarily organic ones] is the point,? says Alyson Mitchell, Ph.D., an associate professor of food science and technology at University
of California, Davis.

If buying all organic isn’t a priority—or a financial reality for you—you might opt for organic specifically when you’re selecting foods that are most heavily contaminated with pesticide and insecticide residues. According to the Environmental Working Group (www.ewg.org), those include peaches, apples, bell peppers, celery, nectarines, strawberries, cherries, lettuce, imported grapes and pears.

For more information about organics and eating well in general check out Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy's favorite foodie magazine at www.eatingwell.com and when you're their be sure to sign up for some of their great email newsletters.

Dr Fitness' Fitness
Tips
were done this week by Kathie Larkin. She had some great activities you and your kids should check out...Number
1 -www.ymca.com has information about Healthy Kids Day on April 12  Number 2
- REI is sponsoring a great program called Get Out There to encourage participation in outdoor fun this Spring.  There were
more great tips but you'll have to listen to get the rest.

Amazingly the Fat Guy is being followed by over 3 dozen
people who are interested in what he eats each day. Who would have
thought?  Anyone can follow the Fat Guy's eating exploits on
Twitter.  Food journals are great ways to lose weight and the Fat Guy is
always trying anything in order to lose those last 20 pounds. So take a peek
into his food diary. You never know what he'll write. Somehow he can stay
compliant to writing on Twitter but he can't fit in exercise each day. That's
right, moments after he eats something the Fat Guy Twitters about it and you
can follow him so that one day if you try real hard you too can look like the
Fat Guy. Please go to www.twitter.com/fatguy


Hot mom, Kathie Larkin was  in the studio lending her thoughts and
laughter.   Be sure to check

Remember we are now on every morning in Michigan.
On radio station WKNW. They asked us to create a Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy
"Wellness Minute." So now a new Wellness Minute runs on that station
each morning at around 7:40. Each
Wellness Minute features the doctor and I going over 5 of his best tips on a
given wellness subject like: losing weight, getting in shape, living a healthy
lifestyle, etc. Now these Wellness Minutes are available online.  If
you have a favorite radio station that you think would benefit from our
Wellness Minutes send them an email telling them about it and who knows maybe
you can hear us everyday too.

Also once again, I need you to please do me a favor. My kid Max has been doing
a radio show called "Kid Power Radio" for awhile now and you should
check it out. Tiffany from The Daily Candy called his family friendly radio
show "Hilarious!" This is a great show for your kids. It is kind of
like a kids version of David Spade's "Showbiz Show" on Comedy Central
or Entertainment Tonight mixed in with a little Wayne's World. Max recaps the week in entertainment
and gives his take and review of what he liked and didn't like on TV, at the
movies, video games, in books and in music and even restaurant reviews. Please
go to his site and download the show for your kid. He had a big show recently
he interviewed Meatwad from Aqua Teen Hunger Force on Cartoon Network's Adult
Swim. And if your kid sends Max an email he'll read it on the air next week.
The show can be found at www.kidpowerradio.com
and you can email Max at RadioStarMax at Yahoo.com. He has gotten emails from
kids from England, Australia, China
and even the US.
Your encouragement is greatly appreciated.  Thanks to you his show is
rocketing up the charts!!!
