We spend nearly a third of our lives in bed. Getting the best night’s sleep possible should be a priority. Sleep affects our energy level, attention span, performance at work, recreation and every quality of our lives.

For years I woke up in the middle of the night tossing and turning—never getting a deep and satisfying sleep. Quite by accident I found several things that may have been affecting my sleep. My bedding was the culprit. After experimenting and systematically removing each element of bedding from my bedroom, I tracked my problem down to feather pillows and my favorite feathered down comforter. The pillow and heavy weight down comforter were not helping my allergies. And I was growing concerned about the effect of: dust mites, mold, fungus and chemicals in my bedding. (more…)

Stem Cells and the Inflammatory Process

The word inflammation comes from the Latin inflammatio, which means “to set on fire.” Most people associate it with skin that becomes red, painful and swollen after they get a bug bite or a splinter. Those are common symptoms of acute inflammation.

The inflammatory response is a normal process, and an important mechanism for health; without it, wounds and tissues would not heal. But as with most physiological functions, it is vital that there is a balance. Unfortunately, inflammation that becomes chronic is one of the most troublesome processes in the body.

Chronic inflammation causes significant disruption of the normal functions of cells and – unlike acute inflammation – is usually silent, invisible and persistent. We can’t see it or feel it, but it can cause a host of health-related problems that plague today’s society. (more…)

Caffeine decreases your perception of pain during exercise. This might explain why fitness competitors routinely down a cup of java right before exercise! Caffeine also improves mental alertness and reduces your perception of fatigue.

The coffee research, however, found that consumption of ground caffeinated coffee appeared to have an independent relationship with weight loss. The findings implied that the caffeine present in coffee may help people to decrease body weight. But no studies show any indication that weight loss from large amounts of caffeine is permanent or significant. There is also no documented evidence that increasing caffeine intake by itself can have any effect on weight loss. In addition, some studies found that decaffeinated coffee may contribute to modest changes in weight. Does coffee help weight loss? (more…)
