[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Written by Kristin Buettner You already know to eat your daily servings of vegetables, but when is the last time you gave any thought to your sea vegetables? Kelp, a type of seaweed, is chock full of good-for-you nutrients that can benefit your health and possibly even prevent disease. Already a staple in many Asian cuisines, this type of sea algae is a natural source of essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. What Is Kelp? You may have seen this marine plant at the beach. Kelp is a type of large brown seaweed that grows in shallow, nutrient-rich salt water, near coastal fronts around the world. It differs slightly in color, flavor, and nutrient profile from the type you may see in sushi rolls. Kelp also produces a compound called sodium...

Nutrition

By Helen West, RD Eating too much sugar is really bad for your health. It’s been linked to an increased risk of many diseases, including obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). Many people are now trying to minimize their sugar intake, but it’s easy to underestimate how much you’re actually consuming. One of the reasons is that many foods contain hidden sugars, including some foods that you wouldn’t even consider to be sweet. In fact, even products marketed as “light” or “low-fat” often contain more sugar than the regular versions (6). The American Heart Association recommends that women limit their added sugar intake to 6 teaspoons per day, while men should limit their intake to 9 teaspoons (7). A teaspoon of sugar contains 4...

Exclusive Interviews with Health Experts

Stacey Chillemi Welcome Dr. John Huber, first off can you tell us a little about yourself? Dr. John Huber First and foremost I am my kids' dad. It sounds cliché but it is true, they give me more pleasure than they will ever know. I am a Clinical Psychologist by profession. That leaves it kind of open when explaining what I do, in that everything we do involves psychology and different people have different issues in every part of that life. I think I am driven to try and help others because I truly care about people and nothing makes me happier than watching people achieve their goals, my children especially with reason, but everyone that I get to hear about overcoming adversity coming out the other side...

Face Care, Skin Care and Anti-Aging

by JESSICA MIGALA The old saying "you are what you eat" holds true for your health. And, it turns out, your skin. Fill up on junk like refined carbs, sugar, and trans fats, and well, your skin is going to look like it. "We’re actually learning that poor nutrition is just as bad for your skin as cigarette smoking," says Patricia Farris, MD, dermatologist and author of The Sugar Detox. A poor diet can cause inflammation, which triggers oxidative stress and in turn damages collagen and DNA, making you look older. Here are the top 10 food offenders to keep off your plate. Rice Cakes Once hailed by supermodels—and the women who wanted to be them—as the quintessential fat eraser, we now know that rice cakes cause your blood...

Exclusive Interviews with Health Experts

Stacey Chillemi: Hi, Dr. Ruth Cherry! Can you start by telling us a little about yourself and your book? Dr. Ruth Cherry: I am a clinical psychologist in a private practice in San Luis Obispo, CA. I’ve practiced individual psychotherapy as a clinical psychologist for forty years. My specialty is the merging of psychological and spiritual dynamics, which is using the power of the unconscious to heal and to transform the mind, body, and soul. Besides writing about meditation, I lead meditation groups daily. I love the magic and the mystery of our inner worlds. We each have great depth because we have wisdom beyond our intellect’s, which is available to us every second. We need to practice stillness, to look inside, and to pay attention. Life...

10 Summer Depression Busters

Depression

By Therese Borchard There are four distinct types of people when it comes to weather and mood, according to a study published in Emotion. Although my mood seems to be better with more sun, I understand why a substantial number of folks get more depressed in the summer. Extreme heat is hard to tolerate. In fact, in a study published in Science in 2013, researchers reported that as temperatures rose, the frequency of interpersonal violence increased by 4 percent, and intergroup conflicts by 14 percent. Ten percent of those diagnosed with seasonal affective disorder suffer symptoms at the brightest time of the year. The summer’s brutal heat, bright light, and long days can affect a person’s circadian rhythm and contribute to depression for the opposite reasons that winter...

How To Get Your Healing Garden Off Drugs With Natural Pesticides

Home Garden

Many common pesticides (such as ant, roach, and mice poisons) have been linked to breast cancer. It probably shouldn’t surprise us that these compounds can be dangerous; they are designed to kill insects with which we share many common biological systems! Several pesticides are known endocrine disruptors (they disrupt natural hormone-signaling pathways), and through these mechanisms have been implicated in increased risk for breast cancer. In addition to effects by themselves, these chemicals have been shown to have additive effects with other kinds of endocrine disruptors. In other words, exposure to small doses of pesticides may have greater effects when people are also exposed to other chemicals to which we are all commonly exposed. Unfortunately, when pesticides are applied in the home, they don’t just kill bugs and...

Vitamin & Supplement Product Reviews

We all know that we need more Vitamin D in our lives and the added Vitamin K2 boosts our body's ability to absorb it. This supplement has a small amount of probiotic that is added as a digestive aid, but because it is a very small amount it is not going to replace my daily probiotic all together. The combination of D3/K2 and probiotic is a power house combo that is intended help our bodies soak up all the good nutrients and improve its effectiveness. The Biggest Loser Vitamin D3/K2 with Probiotic is my new favorite vitamin blend that is in an Easy to Swallow Pearl. Did you know…? The term "probiotic" means "for life."
