Have you ever awakened late the morning of a big meeting, and in a panic, thrown on your makeup and clothes, sped to work, fought traffic, whipped into Starbucks for your coffee fix, spilled your coffee on yourself, and arrived late for the meeting only to discover that you are making the presentation? Talk about stressful, or is it?
Daaa…….daa…daa…..
This is the common thing that happens in our life isn’t it?
That’s why I pick this subject as my entry for this blog today. I know that you also will do the same thing like what I talked above but do you know how to counter it?
If you don’t know how to deal with it, then you just come to the right post at the right blog. Based on what I read at the HealthNewDigest.com, Mellanie True Hills wrote that stress is very related with our daily meal and daily food. Stress is largely within our control. It’s really the symptom, not the disease. It is the product of a number of factors—lack of sleep, improper diet, insufficient exercise, or others—making it difficult for us to deal with the curves life throws us. Sleep deprivation can impair our ability to deal with stress, and even exacerbate the smallest stressors.

What we eat can also be a major factor in how well we deal with stress. Brain chemicals, called neurotransmitters (i.e., adrenaline and seratonin), control brain function. Since they’re made from the foods we eat, a poor diet impairs the body’s ability to make these chemicals. Our bodies need proteins, fresh fruits and vegetables, and grains. Vitamins B and C and magnesium are especially important in helping the body handle stress.
If you’re feeling stressed, check whether you’re eating properly. Are you living on high-fat and high-sugar junk and fast foods? Are you overdoing caffeine (coffee, tea, sodas, and chocolate)? Overloading the body with fats, refined sugars, and caffeine can throw it out of balance.
After that, you can get more info on a DIET because it looks like the best way to handle your stress!
