We’re discussing how the Sun affects our health and well-being, shedding light on an often misunderstood topic.
Artificial sweeteners were never meant to be introduced into the body but it made manufacturers billions of dollars in sales over the decades. The article shows that aspartame has a problem with causing cancer and people wonder why cancer rates have gotten so high. This is another reason, subjecting the body to artificial chemicals and just hoping the immune system can handle it. Not only is cancer a problem with this chemical but weight gain is another side effect. People are thinking that “diet” soda is supposed to be helping them lose weight when the opposite result is what happens.
Do you remember when we were told just to eat the egg whites for health? Then just to eat the egg yolks? Or that fat is bad and it is the reason why people gain weight? Or that salt is bad and that we should stay away from it? What do you hear now?
We’re talking about summer fun and the next one coming up is about weight loss and dieting. I’ve had several conversations today with patients that are having trouble with weight loss but do not understand that eating just a little refined sugar once in a while, will cause them to flip the switch of weight gain.
Have you heard of the touted weight loss drug called ozempic? It is a new “drug”, taken by injection, that has been out in the public eye. So what is this new craze and does it work?
When you think of the word energy, what do you think of? Is it the theory of the Big Bang? Is it the enormous energy of the sun shining on the earth? Is it reaching for an energy drink or perhaps a cup of coffee? Is it listening to a great speech and being motivated to take action? How about the excitement of going on vacation or starting a new adventure? Or do you think of kids being able to run all day?
Have you ever looked back and wondered how you were able to get through the many challenging times of the past? At the time what seemed so chaotic now seems only like a distant memory.
Let’s talk about the connection between Ultraprocessed Foods and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The manufacturers have really got into processing all kinds of foods and ultra processing some so that they don’t go bad on the shelves.
Our energy and how we utilize it throughout our life is key to helping us stay healthy throughout the year, especially in the summer. Many people have different ways to interpret energy, but let’s make it more direct in how we feel during our daily activities. Going back to the basics, we would have to conclude that staying hydrated and having good nutrition is important for our bodies to have good energy.
