Your eyes are your window to the world, so protecting them is likely one of your top
priorities. One of the best ways to keep your eyes healthy as you age is to include
vision-friendly foods in your daily diet.
And contrary to popular belief, carrots are far from the only food out there that is
good for your eyes.
The following foods will not only help to nourish and support your eyes as you age,
but many of them can also help to reduce your risk of cataracts and
macular degeneration the world’s leading cause of blindness.
Egg Yolks
Egg yolks are the best source of lutein, a yellow-hued antioxidant. One of luteins
most talked about qualities is its ability to protect against cataracts and
macular degeneration.
Lutein (along with zeaxanthin, another carotenoid) forms the yellow pigment of your
retina and absorbs blue light, a harmful component of sunlight, says Dr. Andrew Weil,
M.D. Researchers also suspect that lutein’s antioxidant actions help to protect your
eyes from light-induced oxidative damage.
Lutein is also found in vegetables, especially green leafy ones, but when 10 volunteers
ate different sources of lutein (spinach, eggs or one of two types of lutein supplements)
eggs came out on top. Those who ate eggs as their lutein source had blood levels of
lutein that were about three times higher than that of those who ate other lutein sources.
The researchers suspect that other components in the egg yolk, such as lecithin, are
responsible for its superior absorbability.
Brazil Nuts
One Brazil nut contains 120 mcg of selenium, which is about twice the Recommended Daily
Allowance. This is a good thing because selenium’s antioxidant activity fights free
radicals that may damage your eye’s lens and macula at the center of your retina. This
may help [...] Continue Reading…

When it comes to dieting, far too often we take those first steps towards weight loss bliss for what we later determine are all the wrong reasons. Ultimately however, if your reason works for you there is no truly wrong reason to diet. The trick is in finding the reason that will actually work for you.
I’ve seen all kinds of excellent motivators when it comes to dieting and taking your dieting seriously. One of the more common reasons is to lose weight. This is as good of a reason as any. Some want to get back into the size 5 jeans they wore in high school while others would simply like to be able to look in the mirror once again without feeling guilt. For some this is a simple matter of vanity and for others it is finally managing to deal with what has become a lifelong problem. If you find the inspiration you need to be successful with your dieting this time as opposed to others, then that is the perfectly plausible and acceptable reason for you to diet.
Other reasons for dieting include a desire to be more physically fit. Some of us have a deep and abiding desire to live as long as possible and firmly believe that the best possible method for accomplishing this goal is to live the healthiest life possible. This is another excellent reason for losing weight and getting into shape. If it works for you that is. The thing to remember is that every person is going to have to find their very own motivation deep within.
Yet another great reason is to have the energy you need to keep up with your little ones. This is one of the most heartbreaking side effects for most when it comes [...] Continue Reading…

Type 2 diabetes is the most common form found in the US. Ninety to ninety-five percent of people diagnosed with diabetes have this type.
Usually developed later in life, it is most commonly diagnosed in people over the age of fifty-five, but in many cases as young as forty or even younger.
This is because eighty percent of people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes are overweight. With obesity at an all time high, the diagnoses for type 2 diabetes is also at an all time high.
In type 2 diabetes, the pancreas is still producing insulin, but for some unknown reason, the body is not able to utilize it effectively. As a result, just as in type 1 diabetes, type 2 people develop a dangerous buildup of glucose in the blood and the body is not able to utilize it for fuel.
People who have type 2 diabetes may see their symptoms develop over time. They are not usually as noticeable as the type 1 symptoms.
Symptoms include fatigue, frequent urination, especially throughout the night hours, unusual thirst, weight loss, frequent infections and slow healing sores.
In fact, sores may never heal and if not treated it is common for people to have limbs amputated. This usually occurs in the legs, feet and toes.
Also as with type 1, if the symptoms go untreated and insulin is not administered when necessary, the patient runs the risk of slipping into a diabetic coma, which can be fatal.
It is important if you have any symptoms of type 1 or 2 diabetes you speak with a health professional and get tested.
An orthopedic mattress, commonly also called a memory foam mattress is a quality material to sleep open. we will come to that in a moment, but first what is a memory foam mattress.
A memory foam mattress contains memory foam as you would expect from its name. NASA is attributed as having created this material. This material was discovered to offer superior support to the human body over a traditional spring coil mattress.
People suffering from back pain or some muscular skeletal condition will likely have heard of this type of mattress. Nevertheless, memory foam is so comfortable that people without the need for one are buying them.
Moving onto the benefits of an orthopedic mattress, let us have a look.
Your spine will receive optimal support. A double S shape is how the spine is often described. A traditional sping coil mattress is okay for supporting this when new. Complications may develop after a few years of using a spring coil mattress as it starts losing its shape and ability to support. An orthopedic mattress gently supports the body without providing any pressure, and is less likely to lose its form as quickly as a traditional mattress will.
You get a much longer guarantee. You can find memory foam mattresses being guaranteed for between 10 to 20 years by manufacturer’s happy to back up the auality of their mattresses. Try finding that on a traditional spring coil mattress. You might get a gurantee of about 5 years if you are lucky. A number of memory foam manufacturers like to back up the quality and lifespan of the mattress in this way.
Better rest. Less pain means better quality of uninterrupted and comfortable sleep. A body that is not tossing and turning constantly while trying to sleep in vain is of course not as healthy [...] Continue Reading…
