Stress Reduction Tip of the Week
A positive attitude has made the headlines once again in disease prevention and in longevity. There is a correlation between the onset of Alzheimer’s and untreated depression throughout the years. And there is a significant relationship between a joyous personality and living longer. You decide: How do you want to see life as the cup being half empty or the cup being half full? Remember it is not just about adding years to your life, but adding life to your years. Appreciate the little things. The secret is in the little things that are readily available to you. And if you are too stressed to change your perception, or appreciate what you have adapted to, then try just ten minutes of moderate exercise to get rid of your stress and raise your endorphin levels, so that you can readjust your perception. Note: Exercise Alleviates Anxiety.

Food of the Week - Raw Foods
Try to eat more raw foods—whatever your digestion can tolerate. Raw foods are richer in natural enzymes and have more nutrients. Certain foods don’t need any imagination to eat in their natural state like fruits and vegetables. Other foods like meat and fish do. Remember that when you choose to eat raw meat or fish, make sure that it has not been contaminated by parasites or germs and that it has been raised organically. The safest raw foods are fruits and vegetables. Jack LaLanne turned 89 this week and he is a proponent of eating 5 servings of raw fruits and vegetables daily. Note that he uses his juicer heavily. Anyone can let his or her creative juices flow by combining carrots, oranges and mangoes, or celery, cucumbers and melon. Have fun and invent as you turn back the clock. I drink to your good health.
