Ten Ways to Take Care of Brain Health

We can all probably can agree, the brain is the most essential organ of the human body. It only makes sense to make maintaining good brain function a top priority. Taking care of the brain has not ignited much attention in the past, however in today's time it has become exceedingly obvious there are great benefits in focusing on the health of our most vital organ.

Metabolism Boosting Foods

Even though we are born with a certain kind of metabolism, various foods have at times been suggested as metabolism boosting foods. In fact, there are studies showing that indeed some substances (like caffeine), can increase our metabolic rate. This doesn't of course mean that by eating some miracle food, you will lose 10 pounds in one day. It simply means, the even a small increase in metabolism can have noticeable results in the long run.

Holiday Help For Emotional Eaters

Weight is just that, weight. It is an inadvertent way to keep you on the ground. You are grounded when you have clarity. You are in control, and your creative mind is working to its full potential. With grounding comes enhanced intuition, you may be surprised just what flows forth when you are secure in your own self-being. Grounding offers complete confidence in your abilities and who you are. It gives you the ability to STAY motivated.

The best way I describe not being grounded, in relation to food, are my bouts with binge eating and bulimia. I never focused on what I was eating. It was more about what I would eat next. One thing after another was consumed before I had time to even think about what I was swallowing. During those times, there never was an "Earth to Catherine" moment.

Fat Food ... Fat Ass ... Fat Head?
More Evidence Against
The Wisdom of the Western Diet

In the science-speak that often accompanies studies -- and papers on studies -- an article in Science Daily begins with this sentence. "Rats fed a high-fat diet show a stark reduction in their physical endurance and a decline in their cognitive ability after just nine days, a study by Oxford University researchers has shown." In other words, rats on a high-fat diet quickly become stupid and lazy. What implication might this have for humans?

Spice Up Your Life!

I have to admit, when you first see it in the grocery store, it looks very odd. I even remember a fellow shopper picking up a piece and asking her companion, "What in the world do you suppose this is?" It doesn't much look like a vegetable, despite being kept in the produce section. It is, in fact, used as a spice and has long been classified as a medicine in many cultures.

Its taste is spicy, pungent and distinctive -- slightly hot, and it's often used along with other strong, hot spices, making it a special treat for those who appreciate food that bites back!! Naturally, it's caught the notice of nutritionists -- people who want to know what kind of stuff we put in our bodies and what it does for better or worse. And the news here is especially thrilling. It has more than a dozen kinds of anti-oxidants (those tumor-and-cancer fighters that do wonders for everyone!!!) and numerous applications when it comes to physical healing. No wonder it's been used as medicine for centuries.

Pistachios Are Good For Your Health

Pistachios are one of the oldest of all flowering nut trees. We humans have been consuming pistachios for thousands of years. The pistachio tree grows best in hot and dry climates and can be found growing in abundance in the Middle East and the Mediterranean. Pistachios are a very healthy snack food choice as they supply essential nutrients to the body, help to stabilize blood sugar levels and are satisfying. They alleviate hunger while providing energy to the body.
