Could an Aspirin a Day Keep Eye Disease Away?
|
|
|
|
For over 30 years, doctors have recommended that most of their patients take a low-dose aspirin a day to prevent the blood clots that can cause heart attacks. Now, at least for women, a study at Harvard Medical School suggests that taking an aspirin a day may protect sight, as well. Whether the benefits of taking an aspirin are worth the effort of remembering to take it, however, is another matter.

PRE & POST WORKOUTS NUTRITION TIPS!
|
|
|
|
The importance of post workout nutrition cannot be undermined. In order to recover properly from workouts the body needs essential nutrients to rebuild and re-gain energy. Further, eating too much food, or the wrong food before exercise can impair the performance and can reduce the benefits of exercise but it can also weaken the immune system, increase the likelihood of injury, cause hypoglycemia (drop in blood sugar) and reduce energy and performance during subsequent exercise sessions. The quicker the proper nutrients after workout are taken, the more effective the recovery will be.
