It's not just calories! A serving of broccoli has a different impact on hormones that regulate blood #sugar, appetite, & #inflammation than a doughnut. Look beyond calories at the nutrient density & whether it contains refined carbohydrates & sugar. #healthyeating

Lettuce is a common source of food poisoning. Buy whole lettuce heads and remove the outer leaves at home to lower food poisoning risk. The outer leaves are most prone to bacterial contamination, as are bruised/discolored ones. Discard both. Be sure to wash thoroughly too!

Low doses of some things that stress your system may also be beneficial. It's a process called "hormesis" and is based on the idea that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Hormesis may explain why stressors like #exercise and intermittent fasting have #health benefits.

Only about 1-2% of magnesium is detectable in your blood, the rest is tucked away in your bones and cells. To accurately assess magnesium status, RBC magnesium, found in your red blood cells, is a better test than conventional serum measurement.

Don't be afraid to be who you are and embrace your "weirdness." Trying to be like everyone else causes unnecessary stress. Diversity is what makes life beautiful and interesting. 🙏

Ginger, by increasing saliva production, helps relieve dry mouth, a common condition known as xerostomia. However, in the studies they used capsule, spray, or extract forms of ginger. It's unclear whether consuming fresh ginger or ginger tea has similar benefits.

A study showed when you eat vegetables alone, without other things on your plate, you’ll eat more. Why not eat a plate of veggies before tackling the rest of your meal?

if there's one thing that upsets me, it's stories like this: Nearly 25,000 cases of Martinelli's Gold Medal Apple Juice have been recalled due to elevated levels of inorganic arsenic. The affected lot was sold in 1-liter glass bottles across 34 states and in Puerto Rico and Panama.
