Improve You Brain Health in 3 Minutes a Day

I cam across an interesting video showing a simple exercise on how to improve your brain's ability to heal and function.

It comes from a book titled Superbrain Yoga, it's a simple and effective technique to energize and recharge the brain. It is based on the principles of subtle energy and ear acupuncture. This powerful technique is explained in Master Choa Kok Sui's latest book Superbrain Yoga. You can check out his website here.

This unusual exercise is used to improve mental health and acuity and has been going viral on the Internet lately. It was featured in a Los Angeles CBS News report that has an MD, a Yale neurobiologist, an occupational therapist, educators, and parents endorsing it. It is a simple routine, and it has created positive results for learning disabled and autistic children as well as older Alzheimer`s victims.

And it`s useful for any kind of brain fog or dullness, even emotional instability. It can improve memory and focus, and it`s even made some a little smarter. It seems to work for everyone regardless of mental condition.

Below is the video from the CBS news story

Eating After Your Workouts

Have you ever rewarded yourself after going to the gym by enjoying a special treat?

Chocolate? Star Bucks? Pizza?

Well as is turns out, what you put in your body after you workout is extremely vital to determine the benefits, if any, you will receive.

In a recent study released from the Journal of Applied Physiology shows that what you eat after your workout can actually influence its positive effects on your body.

What the researchers found was that all exercise sessions increased insulin sensitivity.

This was to be expected, reports Dr. Mercola, as exercise is one of the most powerful tools you have available to normalize your insulin levels. This is important because elevated insulin levels are one of the primary drivers for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes and weight gain. But the foods you eat are equally important to maintain healthy insulin and leptin levels.

What this means is that you don’t need to starve yourself after a workout, and in all actuality doing so may slow down your metabolism because your body goes into starvation mode.

Take a few minutes and read through Dr. Mercola's review of the study, post- exercise meals and his 5 Principles of Exercise.

Omega 3: Preventing Mental Decline

An important new study published in the Archives of General Psychiatry reveals that fish oil supplements beat mental illness. An article in the Wall Street Journal reported on the recent study for a natural supplementation treatment option for children and young adults with severe mental disease.

Researchers in the new study identified 81 people, ages 13 to 25, with warning signs of psychosis, ... Forty-one were randomly assigned to take four fish oil pills a day for three months. The other patients took dummy pills.

After a year of monitoring, 2 of the 41 patients in the fish oil group, or about 5%, had become psychotic, or completely out of touch with reality. In the placebo group, 11 of 40 became psychotic, about 28%.

With larger studies already planned, this one reveals another component to the wide-ranging benefits that omega 3 oils have. Although this information is already accepted in the natural health community, many studies continue to shed light that natural supplements provide many benefits with little danger of negative side effects.

The truth is we already know that omega-3 fatty acids (polyunsaturated fatty acids -PUFAs) help protect people against cardiovascular disease. We also know
they can play a role in preventing diabetes and cancer. It's little surprise that they also protect against mental illness, given the importance of healthy fatty acids for the functioning of the nervous system. NaturalNews
