An
apple a day keeps the doctor away, as the old saying goes and it also
may help to keep the neurologist away along with the cognitive decline
that often accompanies Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. The
apple contains an antioxidant called “Quercetin”, which in a study
showed that not only may quercetin help brain cells, but it may
actually hurt cancer cells. In the study the quercetin blocked
some of the pathways by which tumors grow out of control.

 Getting a Healthy Start
Data shows that children and adults who eat a healthy breakfast
typically have a healthier diet than those who routinely skip breakfast.
The research also shows that children who skip breakfast don’t do as
well in school. They are more irritable, less focused, and more
likely to become obese later in life. Try yogurt mixed with
granola, cottage cheese mixed with fruit or low fat waffles with fresh
fruit.
On the Job Stress
A British study strengthens the
link between on the job stress and the risk of heart disease, stroke
and other cardiovascular problems. Stress might affect the
autonomic nervous system, which controls the activity of the organs,
blood vessels and glands, which would then put us in a higher risk category for coronary problems.
If your Throat tickles, scratch
your ear!
When the nerves in the ear are
stimulated, it creates a reflex in the throat that can cause a muscle
spasm; this spasm relives the tickle in your throat.
