The Love Drug

As Valentine's Day approaches, our thoughts turn to romance. Unfortunately, many of our cultural myths about love, from fairy tales to rom coms, paint a very distorted picture. In stories, love is a static reward -- you go out and find your prince or princess, overcome whatever obstacles the world throws in your way, and achieve a state of romantic happiness. But love is not the pot of gold waiting at the end of our quest, incarnated in a single perfect partner. Instead it's something we need with us every step of the way -- it energizes us, gives us courage, and guides us. But we are just beginning to understand how it works.

Living With Hashimoto’s Disease or Hypothyroidism

Hypothyroidism or Hashimoto’s disease occurs when the thyroid gland is under-active. The thyroid is an organ that sits near the thyroid cartilage. An overactive immune system will react to the thyroid, inhibiting the gland from releasing the thyroid hormone. The thyroid is the largest organ in the endocrine system. It’s instrumental in the body’s metabolic rate. When it’s no longer working properly, it causes extreme weight gain, chronic fatigue and baldness. In some cases, hypothyroidism also causes dry skin, reduced alertness, and jaundice.

Best Vitamin and Mineral Supplements for Perimenopause and Menopausal Women

Major organs are affected when the estrogen levels drop during perimenopause or menopause. Before menopause, men are more susceptible to weight gain. They have higher LDL cholesterol. Men also are likely to suffer from insulin resistance. But once a woman becomes menopausal, the risks to all three becomes higher than men.

Nutrient Dense and Low-Calorie Food You Should Be Eating Right Now

Six Meals vs. One Meal a Day: Which is Effective in Weight Loss?

You probably heard about ridiculous diet fads that promise to help dieters lose enormous amounts of weight with the littlest effort possible. It’s no secret that crash diets of any kind are not a healthy way to lose weight. Most crash diets are designed to starve the body and force it to burn stored fat. However, the body will react differently; it will go on “starvation mode,” wherein the brain triggers the body to hold on to as much fat as it can to survive the lack of food.

All-Natural Remedies for Common Allergies and Colds

Allergic rhinitis is a type of allergic reaction in the nasal airways. It is triggered when an allergen—like dust, pollen, or animal dander—makes its way into the nasal airways, causing the immune system to overreact and triggering the release of antibody immunoglobulin E. Immunoglobulin E then binds with mast cells containing histamine.

Facts You Need to Know about Fructose Mal-absorption Diet

Can Magnesium Help You Lose Weight Quickly?

Many people who are trying to lose weight have a problem with insulin resistance. Overeating or eating the wrong foods, like sugary or high fat snacks, causes your body to produce an excess amount of insulin. That insulin has to be absorbed by your body and then it will be burned to produce energy. If it’s not burned for energy it will turn into fat to be stored.

As part of your body’s natural function, cells will produce insulin receptors. These receptors are meant to absorb glucose into your cells. The problem of insulin resistance happens when there are too little receptors in your cells. They can’t absorb all the glucose that’s in your body. Unless you burn it off, it will turn into fat to be stored and you’ll gain weight. In cases where this continues to happen over and over, diabetes may eventually develop.

There is no set in stone reason why cells would fail to produce enough insulin receptors, but there are some theories. One theory blames it on low magnesium levels and excessive insulin. Calcium, magnesium, and the link between them have a big part in this theory.

We all know that calcium is vitally important to your health, bones and joints. However, excess calcium is never a good thing and it can cause health problems. We depend on calcium not only to keep our bones healthy but also to trigger electric brain impulses, as well the heart, nerves and muscles.

Although we need calcium in our bodies, there are some places it just shouldn’t be. Calcium can’t do its job if it’s in a cell, so ideally it should stay out of cells. When things don’t happen ideally and calcium manages to get into cells, problems like diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and obesity can occur.

Magnesium is an important mineral that keeps your cell healthy by stopping the calcium from getting in. Therefore, the theory exists because it’s very possible that an insulin receptor shortage is caused by calcium in the cell, which only managed to get in because you don’t have enough magnesium to block the calcium.

It’s not a guarantee that just because you’re overweight it means you have a magnesium deficiency, but it couldn’t hurt to examine your diet. Try keeping a food journal and record what you eat throughout the day and take notice of how much magnesium your diet is giving you.

Normally you need about 200 – 400 mg of magnesium each day. You can get this through your foods, supplements like pills, or a combination of both. Your doctor may recommend you increase your dosage if you have problems like diabetes or high cholesterol, but please consult with them first.

Tips for Applying for Scholarships

Scholarships can be a great way to pay for your higher education. The cost of tuition at colleges and universities are skyrocketing and the average student can have more than $50,000 of student loans after obtaining a bachelor’s degree. Each year, thousands of scholarships go unclaimed simply because people haven’t applied for them.

Follow these 7 tips to apply for more scholarships and have more awarded to you to cover the cost of tuition, books, and other expenses.

#1: Create a List

Create a list of all of the different scholarships you qualify for. This is going to take some research and luckily, there are countless sources online that will tell you who is offering scholarships. You want to focus on ones that are within your major, designed for your school, as well as for the ethnic group that you are contained within. There may also be other circumstances that are in your life that would allow you to qualify for scholarships. This includes financial need, merit based, active in the community, child of a military service member, and more. Don’t be afraid to dig through your background and use anything that may help you to get a scholarship.

#2: Write the Essays

Often, people see ‘essay’ and move on. Write the essays. Scholarship committees want to see you are willing to make the effort to receive the money. A 500 word essay doesn’t have to take a lot of time, but it does have to come from the heart. Be honest and make sure to follow the instructions. Many scholarships ask you to write the same kind of essay, but sometimes a committee will change things up and ask you to write based upon a given prompt. Don’t go off topic as it could cause your application to get discarded.

#3: Participate in Community Service

Volunteering within the community is a great way to get scholarships. Not only can it help you to qualify for the scholarships from such local organizations as the Rotary and the Chamber of Commerce, but also demonstrates that you are a well-rounded person.

#4: Write a Resume

Writing a resume is a good thing because it will allow you to apply for more scholarships and complete applications faster. Pretend as though you’re applying for a job and include everything that a scholarship committee should know about you. Include jobs, volunteer work, organizations you have been a part of and everything else. This will ensure you don’t exclude anything during the application process.

#5: Branch Out

Don’t be afraid to apply to more than 10 scholarships. With online submissions becoming more common, it likely won’t cost any money to apply for the scholarships, so the only thing that it’s going to cost is time. Branch out and include some of the other aspects of your life. Maybe you have some Native American Indian in your background – this can work to your advantage by exploring scholarships for such individuals. Maybe you took a course in high school that would allow you to apply for a scholarship being offered by an organization. There are millions of scholarships offered and the more you branch out, the easier it is to find out about them all.

#6: Go for the Long Shots

Many people look at the scholarships that are worth $500 and $1,000 because they assume they are easier to get. While this may be true, you would need dozens of them to cover all of your educational expenses. The ones that provide $10,000 or more often require you to do more and because they are not awarded to as many people, they are deemed the “long shots”. If many people toss them aside because they are too much work, the committees for said scholarships are not getting that many applicants. You could have a shot at these and it’s worth applying because, although it’s a long shot, you could be the lucky recipient. The money rewarded could be enough to cover a semester’s worth of tuition or even more – and that’s less student loans for you to take out.

#7: Don’t Miss Deadlines

One of the biggest reasons people don’t get scholarships is because they miss the deadlines. Every application has a deadline on it. The submissions have to be postmarked or received by the deadline, otherwise they are ignored. This means you could be going through the work of submitting for a scholarship and the committee isn’t even going to place your submission into consideration because you couldn’t follow the smallest of details.

It can be advantageous to add all of the scholarship deadlines to a calendar so you know which ones are the most pressing. It can ensure you don’t miss any deadlines and are in the running for each one that you apply for.
