Radio Naturopath Episode 543: How Much Caffeine for Health, Bergamot and Cholesterol, Cocoa Flavanols and Your Heart
This week, I reviewed the cyclosporiasis outbreak a little more; not much has changed. I'm waiting to hear a friend's experience with treatment. Then, I got into how much caffeine is enough, or too much? According to the American Heart Association, 400 mg is fine for most people! It's NOT fine for me. I'd be wired, tired, heart skipping beats, and headaches! Hence individualized medicine. Then we talked about whether bergamot can really help lower cholesterol, and cocoa flavanols and heart health.
Radio Naturopath Episode 197: Healthy Hot Cocoa, Rest Is the Most Important Part of Weight Loss, Why Jicama is Good For You
HOT COCOA. It can be good for you, and I think it can be even better with matcha in it! Rock those antioxidants! Or do cocoa chai, with turmeric, ginger, cinnamon and cayenne. Way to warm you up on a cold day. Don't forget the marshmallows! Also, REST is the most important part of weight loss! If your cortisol is too high, you'll store fat. So nap, meditate, breathe, walk in nature! The first rule of weight loss? Don't talk about weight loss. Talk about all the other good things that you can do for your health that can incidentally get you there. Plus JICAMA is good for you! It's crunchy, low calorie, and has lots of fiber. Great healthy alternative to crackers!
