Feeling Moody and Fatigued? Have a Glass of Water
Everyone occasionally finds themselves in the following scenario: with the work day wearing on, you realize it’s nearly lunchtime and you haven’t had a single drink of water all day. You’re feeling tired, physically and mentally fatigued, and the pencil tapping of your coworker in the next cubicle is quickly driving you insane. After having a long drink of water, you suddenly feel reinvigorated and refreshed, and you’re able to easily cope with the remaining hours of work.

Many Smokers Don’t Quit Even After Cancer Diagnosis
You might imagine that for most smokers, a cancer diagnosis would be a significant enough diagnosis to prompt them to quit the habit once and for all. However, breaking the addition to nicotine is an extremely difficult task and many individuals find that it is next to impossible to do so. Not only is nicotine a highly addictive substance physically, it also provides mental benefits to individuals when they are feeling stressed, pressured, or are just wanting to relax.
A new study conducted jointly by Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital concluded that this is indeed true as many cancer patients struggle with quitting smoking after cancer diagnosis with lung or colorectal cancer, violating the orders of their doctors. The results of the study were published on January 23rd in the medical journal Cancer.

The Right Food can Boost Your Mood, Studies Show
Traditionally, comfort food refers to a meal that improves your mood and gives you a heightened sense of well-being, at least while you’re eating it. This includes foods like biscuits and gravy, fried chicken, beef tips with mushrooms, mashed potatoes – things that most people truly enjoy eating. You can improve your mood with food, but the large amounts of calories and fat they include are detrimental to our long-term health.
In 1999, the medical journal Public Health Nutrition published the results of a study finding that so-called “comfort foods” create positive feelings and acutely improve your mood by causing your brain to release endorphins, the same feel-good chemicals released during exercise. However, endorphins only create a temporary improvement in mood. New studies are indicating how certain nutrients can boost your mood in the long term.

Are Dissolvable Tobacco Products Marketed to Children?
The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) is currently conducting an investigation into the potential public health impact of a newly developed cigarette alternative referred to as dissolvable tobacco products.
While the tobacco industry claims that the dissolvable tobacco products are designed to cut down on litter and reduce second hand smoke, many parents and health experts alike are worried that children could possibly mistake the new dissolvable tobacco products for candy.
If this scenario were to occur, the primary concern is that it could potentially lead to a child developing a nicotine addiction or possibly even experiencing a nicotine overdose, which could result in a life threatening situation.

CDC Study: Obesity Rates Remain Stagnant in U.S.
Many individuals find that they are in a continual battle with trying to maintain a healthy body weight, take care of household chores and responsibilities, and excel within the workplace. The end result, in many instances it means failing to exercise regularly, inconsistent dietary habits, and erratic sleeping patterns.
This being all too true for many individuals, it is not surprising that for the past couple of decades, the obesity rate in the United States has been steadily increasing.
However, a new study released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicates that the trend may finally be slowing down. Overall obesity rates for both women and men leveled off at around 36% in 2010. These rates are similar to those recorded in 2003 through 2008.
Obesity is specifically defined as having a BMI (body mass index) of at least 30 or higher. The BMI approach to determining if an individual is underweight, overweight, or within the medically approved weight range utilizes their weight and height as the variables in the calculation. The findings are the result of a National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, that was conducted from 2009 through 2010.
