 Low Fat Isn't Always GoodWe are bombarded daily with low fat food options: from low fat cookies and chips, to low fat ice cream, baked goods, and even candy. Who Influences You?The people we are closest to, and spend the most time with, influence who we are; that should come as no surprise. But your friends may have much more of an impact on your health than you realized. If you struggle to lose weight, or want to gain insight into your health, start by taking a look at your closest friends. Where Does Your Food Come From?Life without a car really limits your options for grocery shopping, especially in the winter. The thing that I love about being in Boston in the spring and summer are all the farmers markets that suddenly pop up throughout the city. Is Your Fuel Gauge on EmptyDo you find yourself lacking energy throughout the day, despite getting 7-9 hours of sleep each night? Many people report feeling fatigue, even though they do their best to get enough sleep. The Surprising Benefit of PotassiumThe number of Americans with high blood pressure continues to climb every year. The American Heart Association estimates that currently, one third of U.S. adults over age 20 have high blood pressure. Incorporating more potassium in your diet may be the key to lowering it. Debt is More Than a Pain in the NeckI am not unique in the fact that there are several sources of stress in my life. It is easy to push stressful events to the side and not think twice about how our life is really impacted by them. It isn’t usually until we start getting headaches, backaches, not sleeping well, or at worse suffering a nervous breakdown that we acknowledge just how much stress is affecting us. Food Label ConfusionI went grocery shopping last weekend, as I usually do, and planned to pick up tortillas for my lunches during the week. The first thing I do with tortillas is check to make sure they are whole grain. The second thing I do is make sure each serving is low in calories. You are What You EatI recently read an article about how many whole foods have a pattern that resembles a body organ or physiological function. The similarities between the food and organ signal the benefit that food provides. Basically saying, you are what you eat. Big Changes Start SmallMy message has always been that health changes do not have to be (and probably should not be) drastic to be effective. Many people assume that to improve their health they must spend five days a week at the gym and cut all foods out of their diet that they love. By making this assumption you may be setting yourself up for failure. What Would You Do With Four Hours?How many times have you made the excuse that you do not have time to eat healthy, exercise, or even get control of your finances? I admit that I am guilty of doing this; especially with the things I am not crazy about in the first place. One of the biggest reasons for our “lack of time” is the TV. A recent study done by Nielson shows that the average American household now has more TVs than people, and we are spending more than a third of our day with them turned on.
