Oh, and we wont harass you with numerous mailings or with articles that are longer than the Bible.
Just a few important, interesting, up to date, super beneficial health items that you could easily apply to you life or pass along to loved ones.
1) What's healthier with dinner, beer or red wine?
Red wine.
It packs less calories and more physical benefits. Two 4 ounce glasses of wine will cost you only 200 calories. The cost for two 12 ounce beers will be 300 calories, 50% more than the two glasses of wine.
Beer contains one celebrated antioxidant, ferulic acid but red wine contains the even more extraordinarily healing nutrient, resveratrol, which battles cardiac disease & Alzheimer's. Pass the wine, please.
2) Four prescription drug - supplement pairings that either pumnp benefits of medication or decreases its side effects.
a) Chugging statins? Include CoQ10 which reduces
lessens decreases muscular pains which often follow statin use.
b) How about SSRI antidepressants? Take some SAMe for a big mood boost.
c) Using NSAIDS for back pain? Eating fish oil with prescription drug offered extra pain relief. Or, just eat some delightful salmon or tuna.
e) If you're using ace inhibitors, you could be suffering from the unwanted effect of blood pooling in your ankles. Take some pycnogenol to cut back swelling.
3) Eating fatty fish is smart.
If you are smart, you'd eat more fish and if you ate more fish, you'd be smarter.
Fish is especially good for increasing focus. That's one reason to give ADHD sufferers fish oil supplements. Also consume salmon, tuna, mackerel, 2x weekly.
4) Want to be a better runner?
Strike the ground with your mid-foot instead of the heel. Just start by attempting to run more quietly. You will start to land on your mid-foot more and more.
5) A grain that makes you thinner?
Yep, barley and it's good for you too. Beginning your day with a cup of barley for breakfast will curtail the sugar spikes for the rest of the day which also helps keep off the pounds. The main reason for that is the soluble stuff we call fiber behaves as a glucose depressor. Diabetics will especially profit from barley.
