Eating ... Gaining Weight ... How to Control the Urge to
Splurge
I confess: I'm completely addicted to Pringles. My determination
weakens every time I think about munching into one, hearing
the
crunch, and getting that first taste of its yummy flavor.
Pure
heaven. Although you don't flip over chips, probably there's
another food that lures you into the refrigerator or the
pantry
cabinet. According to one study, 97% of women (compared to
68%
of men) experience cravings on food.
How do you control these urges that drag you in an intoxicated
shape away from your diet plan and down into the swirling
vortex
of pleasure? I researched on the topic to give you expert
advice
on how to enjoy that art called eating without turning in
into a
feeding frenzy. Read on - and never again feel guilty about
eating a chocolate chip cookie.
Take Charge of Your Eating Habits.
Try to control the number of food cravings you experience.
It
appears to be impossible for humans like us, but if you psyche
yourself and develop fewer cravings, then slowly you'll submit
to fewer cravings.
If indoor winter workouts are beginning to feel like drudgery,
or if you've given up on exercise altogether, here are some
interesting ways to get back onto to the road to fitness.
Try tai chi. A growing number of North Americans are discovering
that the 1,200-year-old, super-slow-motion version of kung
fu has a lot to offer. At first glance, it looks like your
grandmother could do it. She can, but tai chi can be as demanding
as any of the martial arts.
It consists of a series of martial-arts poses that flow
from one to the next like a dance. As you physically adapt
to the forms, you will challenge yourself by crouching lower,
reaching farther, and kicking higher. As you do, your balance,
flexibility, coordination, and posture steadily improve.
It's great conditioning and enhances performance in sports
like golf, tennis, and baseball. Beginning classes are easy
to find at the YMCA, university continuing education programs,
or martial arts studios.
How about the trampoline? It debuted as an Olympic sport
last summer in Sydney and is a favorite among those who like
gymnastics. Most instructors pay close attention to safety,
but be sure you have found a safety-oriented class. Check
to see if landing areas are piled high with cushioning, that
the instructor has a background in gymnastics, and that the
instructor will "spot" students doing high exercises.
Differences Reported Among Migraine Treatments Sumatriptan
is the first and most widely prescribed member of a class of drugs
called triptans, which are used to treat migraine. Seven different
triptans will soon be available. While all have been proven effective,
subtle differences may mean their ultimate success depends on the
patient, new study findings suggest.
Not All NSAIDs Protect Against Heart Attacks People who routinely
take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) other than aspirin
may not receive the benefits of a reduced risk of heart attack, according
to research presented here Tuesday at the American College of Rheumatology's
annual meeting.
Job Cuts Can Affect Backs
of Remaining Employees Employees who survive widespread job cuts
may be at increased risk of back problems from extra physical and
mental stress, the results of a new study show.
Kissing Can Be Hazardous for People with Nut Allergy People
with nut allergies can have reactions if they kiss someone who has
recently eaten the offending substance, according to Dr. Rosemary
Hallett, speaking here at the 59th annual meeting of the American
College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology.
Low-Impact Exercise May Boost Women's Bone Mass Aerobic exercise
can increase women's bone density, and it need not be a high-impact
regimen to work, new research shows.
Stretching increases
flexibility for all ages
If you can hardly reach your shoes or reach something on the top shelf,
it's time to limber up.
Doctors at the Mayo Clinic say people have to regularly flex muscles
and move joints through their full range of motion to prevent muscles
from shortening and tightening. People in their 40s, 50s, and beyond
can be as flexible as younger people if they put a little effort into
it.
Basic stretches should focus on the body's major muscle groups. Before
stretching, warm up by walking while gently pumping your arms or do a
favorite exercise at low intensity for five minutes.
Don't bounce or lock your joints, but stretch slowly into position.
Seek mild discomfort, not pain, and hold for 30 seconds. Try these stretches:
Chest: With arms bent, pull elbows gently back. Inhaling deeply, hold
for 30 seconds.
Hamstring: Sit on a bed or bench, one leg over the side, one leg straight
out in front. With hands below the knee on the straight leg, gently reach
forward until you feel the stretch in the back of your thigh.
Inner thigh: Lie with knees bent halfway and feet together. Let knees
fall apart to feel the stretch.
Quadriceps: Stand a foot away from a wall, facing it. Steady yourself
against the wall with one elbow and hand. Use the other to pick up the
foot below it. Hold until you feel the stretch in the front of the thigh.
Upper thigh: Lie on a bed or bench as for the hamstring stretch. Gently
pull knee to chest.
Lower back: Lie on a firm surface with knees bent. Pull one knee toward
your shoulder, then the other.
Calf: Stand a little away from a wall facing it. With both hands on
the wall, extend one leg back keeping the heel on the floor. The other
leg will be bent. Feel the calf stretch.
Shoulder: Gently pull one arm across to hold the back of the opposite
shoulder. Feel the back of the shoulder stretch. Do the other side.
