Study: A Single Serving of Coconut Oil Can Boost Brain Health Significantly Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) are the primary type of fat found in coconut oil. MCT’s have been found to boost cognitive performance in older adults suffering from memory disorders like Alzheimer’s. What’s most astonishing about this fact is that brain function is boosted immediately after one dose of 40 ml. A study published in the Journal Neurobiology of Aging discovered that the administration MCT’s, the primary type of fat found within coconut oil, almost immediately improved cognitive function(1)(2). 20 people with Alzheimer’s disease or mild cognitive impairment were given either MCTs or a placebo. A significant increase in blood plasma levels of the ketone body beta-hydroxylutyrate (beta-OHB) after only 90 minutes of treatment was observed by researchers. Ketone bodies provide a much needed alternative fuel for the brain that can recharge metabolic processes within the brain, resulting in almost immediate improvement in cognitive function.

15 Things to Stop Doing to Yourself I was recently inspired to put together a list of tendencies that I have found in both the observation of myself and those around me. These tendencies, in my opinion, can make life a lot more complicated and difficult to go through than it needs to be. Read through the list, see how many apply to you and feel free to add any others that you may want to share through the comment section of the article. 1. Stop Running From Your Problems - You cannot run from something forever, and believe it or not the longer you run from something the more difficult it becomes to face. Challenges arise for a reason, and as difficult as many of them can be to both face and overcome they always give you the opportunity to become a stronger and more capable version of yourself. 2. We might even be inclined to lie to ourselves when reading this list, not wanting to admit how many of these tendencies we actually do. 3. 4. Just as the famous saying goes: the grass will always seem greener on the other side.

How Negative Energy Affects Your Life and How to Clear It You know that like attracts like, right? So here's the deal: Positive people are drawn to positive energy; negative people are drawn to negative energy. We tend to perceive negative energy as something other people have. That's because negativity sometimes wears a disguise called ‘reality'. You may assume that positive people are not being realistic – that they're being naive, that they are in denial with their heads stuck in the sand, that they put on fake smiles in the face of difficulty and so forth. Consider this: since when does ‘being realistic' necessarily mean that things will go wrong and that you have to accept that as the truth? That doesn't mean that being realistic is automatically negative. If your version of reality is negative, you are conditioned to believe that whatever can go wrong, will go wrong and whatever can go right, will probably go wrong too. Here's a quick quiz to gauge the level of negative energy within you: - Do you complain? Nobody likes to hear that. 2.
The new medicine: how light helps fight MS and infections Multiple sclerosis (MS), blindness and life-threatening infections are all being successfully treated with a new light therapy. Phototherapy, which uses near-infrared (NIR) and blue light, could one day be used to fight a range of degenerative diseases, including cancer, say researchers who are pioneering the therapy. Thus far, the therapy has been tested out only on laboratory animals, but the results are so promising that it will be tested out on humans soon, say researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. The problem has been in getting the right wavelength at the right intensity and for the right period, but when it all comes together, the results are remarkable. In t......

Meditation & The Science of Brainwaves Technology Meditation is generally an internal, personal practice and done without any external involvement, except perhaps prayer beads to count prayers, though many practitioners of meditation may rely on external objects such as candle flames as points on which to focus their attention as an aid to the process. Meditation often involves invoking or cultivating a feeling or internal state, such as compassion, or attending to a specific focal point. The term can refer to the state itself, as well as to practices or techniques employed to cultivate the state. “Meditation brings wisdom; lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Brainwave technology gives you deep, effortless, enjoyable meditation in minutes: Binaural beats are used to promote brainwave states equivalent to those observed for deep meditation, relaxation, super-learning and deep sleep, as well as other more exotic states of consciousness such as lucid dreaming and OOBE. There are dozens or more specific styles of meditation practice.
Microwave Test – an eye opener Below is a Science fair project presented by a girl in a secondary school in Sussex. In it she took filtered water and divided it into two parts. The first part she heated to boiling in a pan on the stove, and the second part she heated to boiling in a microwave. Then after cooling she used the water to water two identical plants to see if there would be any difference in the growth between the normal boiled water and the water boiled in a microwave. She was thinking that the structure or energy of the water may be compromised by microwave. As it turned out, even she was amazed at the difference, after the experiment which was repeated by her class mates a number of times and had the same result. It has been known for some years that the problem with microwaved anything is not the radiation people used to worry about, it’s how it corrupts the DNA in the food so the body can not recognize it. Microwaves don’t work different ways on different substances. 1). 2). 3). 4). 5). 6). 7). 8). 9).
The Habits Of Supremely Happy People Martin Seligman, the father of positive psychology, theorizes that while 60 percent of happiness is determined by our genetics and environment, the remaining 40 percent is up to us. In his 2004 Ted Talk, Seligman describes three different kinds of happy lives: The pleasant life, in which you fill your life with as many pleasures as you can, the life of engagement, where you find a life in your work, parenting, love and leisure and the meaningful life, which “consists of knowing what your highest strengths are, and using them to belong to and in the service of something larger than you are.” After exploring what accounts for ultimate satisfaction, Seligman says he was surprised. The pursuit of pleasure, research determined, has hardly any contribution to a lasting fulfillment. Instead, pleasure is “the whipped cream and the cherry” that adds a certain sweetness to satisfactory lives founded by the simultaneous pursuit of meaning and engagement. They smile when they mean it. They unplug.
