A quarter of the game players reported their cravings went away. Note: it doesnt have to be Tetris, according to the researchers.

The bodys own detox system Im here to tell you to save you money! We tend to forget that the body is equipped with a detoxification system of its own, which includes the following:... The skin. The main function of the bodys largest organ is to provide a barrier against harmful substances, from bacteria and viruses to heavy metals and chemical toxins. The skin is a one-way defense system; toxins are not eliminated in perspiration. The respiratory system. Fine hairs inside the nose trap dirt and other large particles that may be inhaled. Smaller particles that make it to the lungs are expelled from the airways in mucus. The immune system. This exquisitely orchestrated network of cells and molecules is designed to recognize foreign substances and eliminate them from the body. Components of the immune system are at work in blood plasma, in lymph, and even in the small spaces between cells. The intestines. Peyers patches lymph nodes in the small intestine screen out parasites and other foreign substances before nutrients are absorbed into the blood from the colon. The liver. Acting as the bodys principal filter, the liver produces a family of proteins called metallothioneins, which are also found in the kidneys. Metallothioneins not only metabolize dietary nutrients like copper and zinc but also neutralize harmful metals like lead, cadmium, and mercury to prepare for their elimination from the body. Liver cells also produce groups of enzymes that regulate the metabolism of drugs and are an important part of the bodys defense against harmful chemicals and other toxins. The kidneys. The fact that urine tests are used to screen for drugs and toxins is a testament to the kidneys remarkable efficiency in filtering out waste substances and moving them out of the body. The bottom line The human body can defend itself very well against most environmental insults and the effects of occasional indulgence If youre generally healthy, concentrate on giving your body what it needs to maintain its robust self-cleaning system a healthful diet, adequate fluid intake, regular exercise, sufficient sleep, and all recommended medical check-ups. If you experience fatigue, pallor, unexplained weight gain or loss, changes in bowel function, or breathing difficulties that persist for days or weeks, visit your doctor instead of a detox spa. #Strongertogether . . . #Insightstrong . . . #Betterthanyesterday REFERENCE - https://www.health.harvard.edu//the-dubious-practice-of-de

Have you tried to stop touching your face and are shocked at how hard it is?!!! On average, people touch their faces as many as 23 times an hour! We all know we SHOULD stop doing it because it contributes big-time to spreading germs and viruses but why is it so hard to quit?... Its because for most of us, touching our face is a deeply ingrained habit that we use when were feeling certain emotions (embarrassed, worried, surprised, nervous) or if we have an itch or muscle tension. Because its so ingrained, it can be hard to recognize youre even DOING it! How can you stop a habit youre not even aware of? One of the things researchers suggest is NOTING when you touch your face, and if you have any particular triggers. Then, work from there to cut back. What else do the researchers recommend? Answer: Avoiding finger foods that you eat with your hands. Also, making sure that you wash your hands before you: Put your glasses on (or adjust them) Brush or floss your teeth Shave Put on makeup Eat or cook Do anything else that involves placing your hands near your face For more expert tips, check out this link! https://theconversation.com/how-to-stop-touching-your-face- #Strongertogether . . . #Insightstrong . . . #Betterthanyesterday
