Here are five non-intuitive lifestyle tweaks that can dramatically improve your life –Laugh more, meditate, learn to forgive and let go, connect with nature, and get your hormones checked for goodness sake!

Antioxidants Help Slow Down Premature Aging

Antioxidants have multiple roles in the body and one of the most studied is the ability to reduce oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is a natural process and a result of cells doing their jobs, whether that is creating energy, detoxifying the body, digesting food, breathing, thinking, or exercising. If the balance of oxidative stress gets too high it can cause damage to cells. This is where antioxidants come in; they protect your cells, preventing and repairing damage caused by oxidative stress. This balance is what keeps cells healthy and prevents damage that comes along naturally with living and aging. The […]

For example, there is evidence that depression can be caused by a low-level inflammatory disorder […]

Newborns require up to 18 hours of sleep throughout a 24-hour day. By the age of 5, a child’s sleep architecture begins to mirror an adult’s. But how much sleep do we really need? The average amount of sleep  most adults need for optimal functioning is approximately 8 hours, with a range of 7 to 9 hours. However, these are just averages and the perfect amount of sleep varies for everyone. Insomnia looks different […]
