Achieving Happiness

 This week, researchers published a nutrition index to educate guidelines and support Americans in achieving healthy and environmental stability in meals. The index classified foods by minutes, with processed and sugar drinks as the major criminals, gained or lost healthy lives per serving.

Over 5,000 foods considered as environmental and health burdens have been found in the US diet.

The authors noted, "We use the results to inform the practical and viable marginal dietary changes." "We believe that tiny, targeted substitutions at food level can deliver compelling nutritional benefits and reduced environmental impacts."

The items analyzed were between 74 minutes per serving and 80 minutes. The majority of minutes of loss of healthy life included sugar drinks, hot dogs, burgars and breakfast sandwiches, while fruits, non starch and blended products, ready-to-eat cereals and cooked grains were the major gains.

In particular, researchers discovered a loss of 3.3 minutes due to sodium and hazardous trans-fatty acids for one 85 grams serving chlick wings, while a hot bovine beef dog in a bowl resulted in a loss of almost 36 minutes 'mostly due to the adverse effects of processed meat,' the study authors stated. Further, the increase of 33 minutes has been connected with peanut butter & jelly sandwiches.

The gains were also connected with gain between 10 and 15 minutes for foods such as salted peanuts, baked salmon and rice with bean.

Young people put sauce on the hot dogs and prepare food outdoors for the party.

This week, researchers published a food index with the objective of informing guidelines and helping Americans reach healthier and more environmentally stable diets.

Researchers from the Department of Environmental Health of the Michigan School of Public Health have published their findings on their newly developed Health Nutritional Index in the Nature journals, drawing on the GBD study for dietary risk components in 2016, and the harmful effects of certain food-related health effects.

"Previous research on healthy and sustainable diets generally restricted their conclusions to a debate of foods based on plants vs. animals, the latter being stigmatized as the least nutritious and sustainable," says the report. "While we show that plant-based diets generally perform best, significant fluctuations in plant and animal feedingstuffs should be recognized before such generalized conclusions are justified."

Researchers have also categorised meals as nutritional and environmental, or global warming in a short period. Foods of poor nutritional value and production linked to high ecological effects (e.g. greenhouse gas emissions), include beef, processed meat, pork and lamb, cheese-based food and certain salmon plates. Healthy and environmentally sustainable products included nuts, fruits, vegetables, legumes, whole grains, and some seafood. By contrast, the majority of chicken, milk and egg products and cooked cereals fell into the middle area.

Researchers have observed that replacing cattle and meat for fruit, vegetables, nuts, legumes and certain marine foods with ten per cent daily calorie consumption can have important health benefits.

Researchers have identified that shifting 10% of the calorie consumed every day from beef to processed meat could have considerable health benefits for fruits, vegetables, nuts, legumes and selected fish.

"This shows that nutrient helpful diets may not always produce the lowest environmental effects, in agreement with prior studies and vice versa," concluded the authors of the study.

Finally, researchers concluded that exchanging 10% of daily caloric consumption for fruit, vegetable, nut, legumes and certain meats from beef and processed meat could have significant health benefits, with the team citing 48 minutes per person per day and a 33 percent lower dietary carbon footprint.

Connecting spiritually has many benefits both mental and physical. There are several ways an individual can connect with their own spirituality. One of them is through voluntary services.

Exercise To Release Endorphins

Synopsis 

Endorphins – is popularly associated with the exhilaration feelings brought on by pain, danger, or certain forms of stress. 

These endorphins work as sedative receptors to help to suppress pain or discomfort both in body and mind.

Move Around 

A good exercise regiment is also another way to release endorphins. Some athletes are able to push themselves to higher limits because of the release of the endorphins during the exercise regiments. These endorphins dull the pain that would otherwise be felt. 

Because these are a natural by product, produced within the human body it is certainly a legal way to getting high and staying that way for a period of time. Also to date there are no known negative side effects to the production of endorphins in the human body makeup.  

A lot of people advocate turning to an exercise regimen that can be quite exhausting in order to produce the relevant levels of endorphins to suppress the presence of any negative feelings or physical pain. The adequate release of endorphins can ensure the individual stays in a state of bliss.  

Some medical experts are at odds as to whether the endorphins are released by the physical exercise or because of the mental pressure from meeting the physical challenge. However all agree that exercising is a great way to release the endorphin levels into the body system. 

It should be noted that endorphins are not only released through an exercise regiment but can be released through other activities too. These may include eating spicy food or achieving an orgasm during a sexual act. Both very different scenarios but both are capable of producing the same amounts of endorphins to create a state of pleasure. Thus the practice of seeking some level of pleasure through the release of endorphin is pretty common as it does not require unusual or difficult processes.

How Your Sadness Can Affect Others

When it comes to family members, having to live with someone who is in a constant state of sadness is very challenging indeed. The guilt that the family members feel can cause further negative energy to be expounded. Family member may also feel guilty for any happiness that have or are able to achieve when faced with the individual’s sadness. There is also the danger of anger feelings manifesting within the family unit if the individual suffering from sadness is unwilling to seek the necessary help to address the problem. 

Friend will also slowly turn away from the individual if there is a constant aura of sadness around the individual. Here also the general feeling of happiness can cause everyone to feel suppressed for fear of offending the individual going through the sadness stage. If continued unchecked this general resentment can snowball into causing others to be unsympathetic toward the individual going through the sadness stage. 

An even more negative result of constantly being sad is the health issues that it can cause. When these health issues become severe, the others around who may initially try to be supportive will eventually lose whatever patience they have for the individual going through the sadness phase.

There is already a lot of stress and strife in the world so adding to it by being in a constant state of sadness will not only be damaging but is also quite unhealthy.
