Three Reasons to Go Veggie

Submitted by emily.griffin on

What do you call a vegetarian who has an almost balanced diet?  

Rad-ish. 

Cutting meat out of your diet is not quite as easy as ordering cheese pizza instead of pepperoni. However, a well-balanced vegetarian diet offers a whole bundle of health benefits. Load up your plate with diverse fruits, veggies and whole grains and every mouthful will come with helpful antioxidants.  

Why do antioxidants matter? Well, many studies, including one on the Frontiers website, show antioxidants play an important role in fighting the free radicals that can lead to diseases associated with aging, such as cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s disease and even cancer.

Here are three reasons to go veggie: 

  1. Lower your risk of heart disease. A well-balanced vegetarian diet typically contains a low amount of saturated fat and cholesterol, two factors associated with a lower risk of heart disease. A study on the National Library of Science website involving over 76,000 participants found that vegetarians were 25% less likely to die of heart disease than those who eat meat. 
  2. Maintain a healthy blood pressure. High blood pressure rates are linked to heart attacks and health problems such as strokes, dementia and kidney failure. A study on the Institute of Meat Hygiene and Technology website shows that healthy vegetarian diets that include dairy products can help maintain a healthy blood pressure level. 
  3. Prevent cancer. While scientists work hard to understand how diet impacts the various types of cancer, multiple studies show that vegetarians have a lower risk of getting cancer than non-vegetarians. This could be because vegetarians consume more antioxidant-rich foods and therefore avoid exposure to carcinogens found in red meat or a number of other factors.  

 

Looking for ways to feel healthier and lower your risk of common diseases? Consider eating a vegetarian diet packed with healthy foods. While a diet of candy, french fries and cereal might be vegetarian, it sure won't reduce your risk of disease. Whether you cut out all forms of meat or still eat fish, remember: A well-balanced vegetarian diet is rad-ish.

Natural Sleep Remedies for a Restful Night

Submitted by emily.griffin on

Are you having trouble falling asleep and staying asleep? You’re not counting sheep alone. According to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, 50 to 70 million Americans suffer from sleep-related complications. Lack of sleep can lead to diabetes, high blood pressure and certain cancers. Thankfully, there are natural ways to combat sleepless nights. Here are three natural sleep remedies to wake up feeling refreshed. 

Chamomile tea 

When you hear tea, you may think of caffeine. However, chamomile is caffeine free. Chamomile tea is made from dried flowers of the chamomile plant. Compounds found in chamomile reduce activity in the nervous system and promote relaxation. Drinking chamomile tea is a way to help your body wind down. Fix yourself a cup of chamomile tea to encourage a peaceful night of sleep. 

Lavender 

For centuries, lavender has been used to treat sleep disorders. Research shows that inhaling essential oils like lavender may aid sleep. Turn on an oil diffuser with lavender as you get under the covers. Put a lavender sachet under your pillow. You can even buy lavender spray bottles to mist your bedding. No matter how you incorporate lavender, the aroma might lull you to a deep slumber. 

Melatonin 

Your body naturally produces melatonin to tell your brain when it’s time to go to sleep. The Sleep Foundation explains that as it gets darker outside, more melatonin is released. Our bodies can get confused with screen exposure from phones, TVs, tablets and more. In addition to putting down devices at night, more melatonin in your diet can improve sleep. Eggs, milk and almonds are good sources of melatonin. Melatonin supplements are even sold over the counter. Induce a sleepy feeling at night with more melatonin. 

Adding a simple step to your bedtime routine may result in a restful night. Next time you find yourself staring at the ceiling in the middle of the night, try one of these natural sleep remedies.
