Let's talk about INSOMIA... para sa mga taong HIRAP sa pagtulog, just like now... madaling araw na ay mulat pa ang mga mata.

This is for you guys...



Insomnia
Symptom:
The inability to fall asleep or stay asleep for at least 6 hours a night.

Possible solutions:

Many of my clients have improved just by avoiding coffee and tea during the day.
Avoid all stimulants, that is sodas with caffeine in them.
Note: The popular health product Green tea also contains caffeine

Prevention:

Deal with stress daily.
Have a cup of chamomile tea before retiring.
Avoid alcohol at night as it can cause one to wake up a few hours later.

Supplements:

If the insomnia is stress related, there is a product at health food stores called tranquilyte which helps
Exercise daily.

Food:


Add some more Iceberg lettuce to your diet, as it does have some natural opiates which have mild sedative and muscle relaxant effects.
Oats has a similar effect.

Herbal tea:

1 teaspoon - Dried Passion flower [Passiflora incarnata]. Do not use the fresh flower.
1 teaspoon - Dried chamomile flowers [Chamaemeleum nobile]
1 teaspoon - Lime flowers. Tilia europa [also known as linden flowers]
Use this in 500ml boiling water, allow to steep for 10 minutes. Strain, then drink


Have a nice sleep!!!!!! :) :) :)

2 Sources of Cholesterol

With 2 sources of cholesterol to deal with, it’s no wonder that so many adults have high cholesterol. Most folks aren’t even sure where cholesterol comes from.

Cholesterol from the foods you eat.
Cholesterol from food is hard to get away from, even though you may be watching your diet. All foods of animal origin contain cholesterol, including eggs, red meat, and shrimp. Generally, foods that are high in saturated fats or trans fats should also be limited. These include foods you may not even think of, such as:

-Grilled-cheese sandwich
-Margarine
-Potato with butter
-Chicken pot pie

As you eat, cholesterol from food is absorbed by your digestive tract. It then makes its way into your liver and can circulate through your body in your bloodstream. That’s one source. There’s also a little-known second source of cholesterol—your body.

Cholesterol produced by your body, based on family history.
Like many people, you may not know that your body produces cholesterol naturally, based on family history—despite the fact that it’s where more of your total cholesterol comes from. Your liver makes cholesterol, as do other individual cells throughout your body. Once cholesterol is produced, it can make its way into your bloodstream
