CardioMender Cravings 2

Part 1: Got Cravings? It’s No Accident!

Got Cravings?

Hunger is a natural feeling. Thousands of years ago, when the body was in need of nourishment, it was a survival advantage to feel hungry and seek food. For those whose bodies didn’t experience hunger, they didn’t store enough calories to survive the winter. Cravings represent a whole different phenomenon.

New World, New Solutions

At Home B-12 Shots, Appetite Suppressants Curbside and More

These are challenging times as COVID-19 rips through our community and our nation. Many of us have self-quarantined, instituted social distancing and changed everyday patterns in order to protect ourselves and our families. These changes can make us anxious and stressed, and many of us eat when stressed. What can we do? Without easy solutions, we’re more likely to go ‘off the rails’ and begin to eat irresponsibly and become more sedentary.

Being Mindful During Brain Awareness Week

March 11th – 17th, 2024 is Brain Awareness Week and, compared to other days or weeks dedicated to great causes, this week is one of the most important for many reasons. While many kick off the new year with dedication to exercise or learning a new skill, many forget that behind the scenes, for everything involved with being human, it’s our brain that makes it all happen. A healthy, stimulated and ultimately rested brain that’s kept in optimal condition, will reap the benefits of having peak use throughout our life.

Understanding Processed Food Addiction

February is National Snack Food Month, but that doesn’t mean that we’re suggesting you run out and celebrate with your favorite chips, crackers and cookies. This is a month for awareness about how these addicting snacks are triggering compulsive thoughts, adding pounds and leading us back to the cupboard over and over. The consumer-targeted snacks that we love, strategically developed by food scientists and engineers, can act powerfully like a drug, and many snack favorites are widely misunderstood due to the packaging and advertising which are often intentionally misleading.

Keto Diet: Does It Work and Is It Safe?

If you are interested in losing weight, undoubtedly you have heard the chatter about the Keto Diet. ‘Keto’ is short for Ketogenic, the metabolic state where your body ‘burns fat’, which is what everybody who is trying to lose weight wants. The Keto Diet is the latest craze in dieting and because of this, and the reach of social media and the internet, there is an abundance of ‘information’ available to those who seek it. While the Keto Diet is NOT entirely ‘Fake News’ (i.e. you can lose weight on it), like many fad diets, the devil is in the details. Before we jump on yet another ‘diet’ bandwagon, it is in our best interest to become more familiar with the details, specifically the possible health risks as well as its potential to help us lose weight.

Learning More About the Gluten-Free Lifestyle

As we begin 2020, we can choose to be more focused on the quality as well as the quantity of the types of foods we consume. Just decades ago people were often misinformed about many common foods, their ingredients and how they could possibly affect overall health and undiagnosed conditions. 

One commonly discussed topic is gluten, which is a collective of proteins found in grains, including wheat, rye and barley. Now, knowing that gluten is in so many foods, and the effects it may have on us, can put each of us at a distinct advantage over those who previously did not have access to this knowledge. Although the effects of gluten vary, it’s important to understand what gluten is, and who truly needs to restrict gluten or maintain a gluten-free diet vs. those who simply can avoid gluten at their own discretion.
