Cigarettes: What They Do To Your Health

by Andrew W John

Smoking is a bad habit. But does anyone really know how bad? The number of smokers is still so high that it is doubtful, especially that the amount of smokers around us makes it extremely hard to break that habit. That’s why many smokers lull themselves into a false security, repeating the stories about healthy 90-year old smokers. The truth however, is quite different.

First, let’s discuss what you won’t get from smoking. First of all, it is not pleasant. The initial relaxing effects of nicotine wear off soon after you start smoking, leaving you with nothing but an expensive habit. Then, it does not help improve your image. You may feel more adult, but yellow teeth and bad breath make you look sick rather than “macho”.

by Fabian Toulouse

A killer is threatening one third of the adults in this country, and one fourth of them are completely clueless. Over 73 million people over the age of twenty in the United States have high blood pressure, also known as hypertension. Their arteries and blood vessels are rigidinflexible, creating more work for the heart as it pushes blood through the body. Undiagnosed or ignored, this killer stealthily works the heart harder and harder until it can no longer take the overload, and the end result can be a massive heart attack or stroke.

Preventing Alcohol Cravings

by Ed Philips

While there are links between what you eat and your cravings for alcohol, it’s important to put the food issues into context, because in some circumstances foods can do very little to help with alcohol withdrawal or alcohol avoidance. Other lifestyle changes, medical treatment, or therapeutic-dose dietary supplements are needed.

There is a fairly large amount of research about the potential benefits of nutritional supplements during periods of alcohol withdrawal. The greatest focus here has been on the B-complex vitamins, although all of the major vitamins (vitamins A, C, D, and E in addition to the B-complex vitamins) have been found to play a potentially helpful role.

Persuasion And Your Brain

by Kenrick Cleveland

“The existence of forgetting has never been proved: We only know that some things don’t come to mind when we want them.” ~ Friedrich Nietzsche

We’ve all had that annoying, frustrating feeling (which can also be sometimes embarrassing), having something at the tip of your tongue, something that you, at one time, absolutely knew, but no longer have access to. It could be a historical fact, a personal anniversary (which might have the added bonus of putting you in the doghouse) or it could be something as crucial as the name of a valued client who you’ve had many interactions with, but are drawing a total blank on. (I hate it when that happens!!!).
