Health Benefit Of Garlic
~1.2 mins read
It can boost heart healthIn a recent review of previously published studies, scientists summarized the many ways garlic protects heart health. These include lowering blood pressure and cholesterol, as well as reducing artery stiffness and blood markers for inflammation. Other research shows that compared to a placebo, aged garlic extract can help slow the rate of progression of coronary artery calcification, a risk factor for cardiac events, including heart attack and stroke. In people with high cholesterol, garlic has been shown to reduce both total cholesterol and “bad” LDL, while slightly improving protective ”good” HDL. Researchers say the 8% reduction in total cholesterol seen in studies is associated with a 38% reduced risk of coronary events by age 50.

Garlic fights high blood pressureAround the world, about 25% of adults have high blood pressure, and the condition is linked to seven million deaths each year. In one meta-analysis, garlic supplements were found to be more effective at curbing blood pressure compared to a placebo, especially in people diagnosed with hypertension. Another study found that garlic supplements have the potential to reduce blood pressure in people with hypertension, while simultaneously lowering cholesterol and stimulating the immune system.

Dealing With Pressure 2
~1.4 mins read

 Getting the proper amount of sleep is one of the most important things you can do to ensure optimal cognitive function and mood; sleep well, eat well, and exercise. You'll feel balanced and calmer.

7. Ask for help

No one can handle everything alone, and truly successful people understand that. Don't be afraid to reach out to your trusted network or coworkers for assistance when situations are getting out of control.

8. Re-frame negative thoughts 

Train yourself to be calmer by tackling negative thoughts head-on. Put each situation in perspective by stopping the alerted, frantic worries, and instead reminding yourself: This can be handled. This is not the end of the world. First, I'll do X. Then, I'll do Y... and so on, until you're feeling empowered. 

9. Breathe

Put a pause on the crisis. Breathe in, breathe out, and slowly count to ten. It's an age-old suggestion that truly works. When you give yourself a moment, you'll clear your mind of worries and give your brain a moment to recalibrate so that you can approach the problem in a calm way.

10. Use positive body language

Your body language has been shown to have a real effect on your brain's outlook. So, smile and adopt a power pose. Soon, the feeling will be real.

11. Be patient 

Understand that not all problems are solved easily, but that they can be solved. The solution is available, but it may take some time. Accept this, and it will no longer control you.

12. Be grateful 

This is major in terms of overall happiness: people who are grateful, more than any other factor, are happy and have a positive outlook on life. Like the most successful people, take the time to count your blessings every day--you've earned it!
