Press Release Summary = 2.0 Sites Like Mark's Daily Apple Bite Into Boring Mainstream Health World; People Say Edgy Online Health Communities More Personal, Relevant, and Fun
Press Release Body = Americans are tired of health information that is boring, difficult to understand, ineffective and outdated. Savvy health-minded people are taking matters into their own hands and flocking to refreshingly fun, user-friendly, interactive and humorous health communities like Mark Sisson's Daily Apple. It's part of a new trend in do-it-yourself health care as Americans become increasingly fed up with FDA drug scandals, high rates of obesity and diabetes, and boring health information.
At Mark's Daily Apple, recent topics from community members have included funny, contentious and provocative comments:
"Is it too much to ask that food manufacturers keep poop out of my food?" asks one member, Sarah C., in response to the e.coli-spinach debacle.
"Which is better, fried Coke or Pepsi?" muses one shocked member, Steve O. at a news piece covering outrageous new junk foods that are popular this year.
Members also chat about the best time to take supplements, the debate between vegetarians and "Atkinsians", why women need to lift weights, and the shenanigans of the mainstream food and drug industries.
Mark's Daily Apple provides uncensored room for its members to help each other pursue better health, but the site also comes with some popular, humorous features: The Sisson Spoof, which is a weekly send-up of the latest fast food atrocity, The Impossible Calorie Award, which draws attention to ridiculous menu items at popular restaurants, and the Fuming Fuji, a Mark's Daily Apple alter-ego that fumes about unhealthy items marketed to children.
The site also features daily health updates from all the major medical journals and news sources. Free premium content, personalized, same-day email responses to health and fitness questions, and supplement discounts are also found on the site, which is founded by retired world-champion athlete, recognized supplement expert, and international anti-doping spokesman Mark Sisson.
