5 Quick Pick-me-ups

Bananas - These are serious mood boosters due to their mix of vitamins A, B6, and C; fibre, tryptophan, potassium, phosphorous, iron, protein, and good carbohydrates. The natural sugars in a banana will give you a quick boost of energy while the fibre will help you sustain that energy. This will prevent a drop in your energy and mood and high blood sugar levels. Vitamin B6 helps the brain convert tryptophan into serotonin, the mood boosting hormone. If you're feeling down and need a snack have a banana.

Body posture - Have you ever noticed that you have a perkier step when you are happy? Happy people walk fast, stand tall and are full of life and energy. Take notice of the way you carry yourself. Try not to shuffle your feet, walk slowly and slouch - this will make you appear lifeless and pessimistic. If your feeling sluggish, taking big steps, standing tall, and walking faster will help you look and feel optimistic and energetic.

Sleep - By getting less sleep than we need (for example - 6 hours instead of 7), our brains tend to lean towards negative thoughts instead of positive ones. An article in the Journal of American Medical Association found that even one night of insufficient sleep can negatively affect our mood. Even though its not easy to get those extra couple hours of sleep, your mood depends on it. Shut off the computers and televisions and get the sleep your brain needs.

Sunlight - getting fresh air and exercise is the best way to boost your mood and your energy. The natural combination on a regular basis will work every time to pick you up. Take long deep breaths as you go on a brisk walk and reap the mood-lifting benefits of exercise. Remember to wear sunscreen when spending long periods of time outside in order to protect against sun damage.

Walnuts - These contain a lot of healthy components that help improve your mood. Walnuts have omega-3s, vitamin B6, tryptophan, protien, and folate. Omega-3s have health benefits including cancer preventing and acne preventing benefits, and have been linked with better moods and lower depression rates. A study by Harvard Medical School found that omega-3s and uridine (another component found in walnuts) worked in the same way as antidepressant medications. The average dose of omega-3 oils is 1,000 mg per day. You can get the same amount in half an ounce of walnuts.

Heliocare, the Future in Sun Protection

If you've ever been into any kind of sci-fi movies or television shows you've almost definitely seen the characters on the show popping pills for everything, from food pills, to pills that somehow instantly cure wounds that no man, Chuck Norris included, could survive. I'm sure you've wondered, "When are we going to get those?" Well, maybe we've already got them.

Heliocare, an oral dietary supplement is loaded with antioxidants which help protect the skin against sun damage. The almost too-good-to-be-true pill is very real, and in fact is the first oral sun protectant to be clinically proven to prevent free radicals, premature aging, and hyperpigmentation.

For those that are into the natural medicines, here is some good news, the main ingredient, Polypodium leucotomos extract, is 100% natural. Two other key ingredients found in Heliocare are beta-carotene, an efficient anti-free-radical agent, and green tea extract, which has potent antioxidant activity, protects DNA, and can regenerate oxidized Vitamin E.

However, for those that are wondering, Heliocare is not a replacement for sunscreen and protective clothing. Even the Heliocare website states this, and even suggests that Heliocare should be taken with sunscreen and protective clothing to provide the best protection for the consumer.



Furthermore, Heliocare does not carry any known side effects. In fact, Polypodium leucotomos extract has been safely used for over 20 years! Heliocare has been published in many top medical journals, including The Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology. Additionally, Heliocare has been widely recommended by doctors all over the world.

Here is what the Heliocare website says their product does.

"
- Increased tolerance to the sun
- Reduced skin changes after chronic exposure to the sun
- Helps maintain your skin's elasticity
- Provides cell protection in the epidermis
- Protects skin cell DNA"

However, the Heliocare website also says, "Do not use Polypodium leucotomos extracts during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Heliocare supplements should not be taken if you are on Digoxin or any other medicines used to treat heart failure. Also note that there have been no specific studies in patients under the age of 18. Consult with your doctor first before allowing your children to use Heliocare pills."
