Beware of Too Much Sugar, But Not All Carbohydrates are Bad For You

For decades, fat was the enemy, but today it seems the popular media has found a new villain: carbs. But carbohydrates, like fats, are not all created equal.

There’s little debate about the fact that we currently eat more carbs, especially processed carbs, than we need. So, cutting carb intake, especially non-nutritious processed carbs and sugars, is a viable-fat loss and overall healthy decision.

But drastic reductions in carbohydrates can also lead to very limited intake of healthy fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes. There is a large volume of research showing that the lack of adequate intake of healthy fruits and vegetables has both short and long-term health consequences.

If you wish to maintain good health and a healthy weight, it’s not about replacing fat with carbs or carbs with fat, but overall balance and an appropriate calorie level.

Take Time to Thank Your Thyroid

The thyroid plays an important role in your health. The small, butterfly-shaped gland at the base of your neck works hard, and it deserves more attention.

Despite its small size, the thyroid is responsible for producing hormones that help regulate metabolism. It also affects the function of many other important organs, including the heart, brain, liver, kidneys, and skin.

Also, thyroid disease is more prevalent than you might think. It affects approximately 200 million people worldwide, and it remains undiagnosed in far too many.

Common health conditions related to the thyroid:
• Hyperthyroidism is an overactive thyroid and hypothyroidism is an underactive thyroid.
• Some of the symptoms of hyperthyroidism include heart palpitations, heat intolerance, weight loss, anxiety, and insomnia.
• Some of the symptoms of hypothyroidism include weight gain, hair loss, sensitivity to cold, constipation, poor memory, muscle weakness, and persistent fatigue.
• Goiter is a thyroid condition that causes a visibly enlarged thyroid gland that may impact swallowing or breathing.

Many symptoms of a thyroid imbalance may be difficult to recognize and can often mimic other conditions. The health of your thyroid is important to your body’s overall health and well-being. If you’re having symptoms you think may be related to a thyroid condition, call your doctor get it checked!

Spice Up Your Health

Adding spices and herbs is a great way to add some flavor and excitement to your meal, but new research indicates it may also benefit your health.

In a randomized, controlled study, scientists from Penn State University discovered that when subjects ate a meal high in fat and carbohydrates with six grams of a spice blend added, markers of inflammation were reduced compared to when they ate a meal with less or no spices.

The blend of spices included basil, bay leaf, black pepper, cinnamon, coriander, cumin, ginger, oregano, parsley, red pepper, rosemary, thyme and turmeric. Six grams roughly translates to between one teaspoon to one tablespoon, depending on how the spices are dehydrated.

Experts agree that emphasis should be on eating a healthier diet. But this research shows that adding a variety of spices and herbs may provide some benefit after a meal high in fat and carbohydrates.
