You’ve heard it before, “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” For kids, this is doubly true. Numerous studies show that kids learn better, stay more focused and generally eat better all day long if they start with a good breakfast. So what makes a good breakfast? A walk down the cereal aisle of your grocery store offers a dizzying selection of hot cereals, cold cereals, and breakfast bars. Reading nutrition labels can be time-consuming and confusing. We’re going to address 3 important considerations in making your breakfast choices: 1) whole grains vs. processed grains, 2) fiber, and 3) sugar content. 1) Choose Whole Grains over processed grains. Whole grains still contain the chaff and the germ of the grain. These are the nutrient rich parts of a grain containing a wealth of vitamins and minerals. When a grain is processed, many nutrients are lost such as calcium, B6, iron, niacin, folic acid, fiber, protein, among others. At the same time, ounce for ounce processed grains have more calories. The federal government considered this a big public health issue given that 20% of the calories in the average American diet are coming from processed grains (meaning 20% of the average American diet has very little nutritional value.)

2) Choose foods higher in fiber. Whole grains are naturally higher in fiber than processed grains. Fiber isn’t just about “staying regular.” Fiber serves the very important function of slowing down the absorption of glucose into the blood stream and moderating blood sugar levels.

3) Choose foods with no added sugars. We have already seen how processed grains affect your blood sugar levels, add sugar on top of that and you have a bad combo. Sugar can appear on a label in many forms: sugar, high fructose corn syrup, brown sugar, maple sugar, dextrose, maltose, corn syrup solids, fructose, sucrose, dehydrated cane juice, can juice, can juice solids, glucose syrup, invert sugar….and that’s just to name a few. Be wary of fruit juice concentrates or “fruit juice sweetened.” These may have started with fruit juice, but they have been processed to remove everything until all that’s left is fruit flavored sugar.

New research shows that the active ingredient in marijuana may prevent the progression of the disease by preserving levels of an important neurotransmitter that allows the brain to function.
Researchers at the Scripps Research Institute in California found that marijuana active ingredient, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, can prevent the neurotransmitter acetylcholine from breaking down more effectively than commercially marketed drugs.
THC is also more effective at blocking clumps of protein that can inhibit memory and cognition in Alzheimer patients, the researchers reported in the journal Molecular Pharmaceutics. The researchers said that their discovery could lead to more effective drug treatment for Alzheimer& the leading cause of dementia among the elderly. Those afflicted with Alzheimer suffer from memory loss, impaired decision-making, and diminished language and movement skills.
The ultimate cause of the disease is unknown, though it is believed to be hereditary.

Marijuana is used to relieve glaucoma and can help reduce side effects from cancer and AIDS treatment.
Possessing marijuana for recreational use is illegal in many parts of the world, including the United States, though some states allow possession for medical purposes.

Researchers from the University of Heidelberg in Germany re-analysed data from a study of coronary heart disease that included 312 heart disease patients between 40 to 68 years old who were matched by age and sex to 479 healthy people. Study participants were asked about their patterns of physical activity since age 20. Those who reported being somewhat or very active throughout their adulthood had a 62-percent lower risk of heart disease compared to people who had not exercised in adulthood at all.
However, people who said they were sedentary from age 20 to 39 but took up exercising at age 40 or later, cut their heart disease risk by 55 percent. Risk reduction was greatest among those who became very active. These “later-life athletes” actually fared better than people who were active in their twenties and thirties but took to the couch after 40, who showed a 35 percent lower risk of heart disease than people who were completely sedentary.
These results suggest that keeping up a physically active lifestyle in adulthood may be beneficial for preventing coronary heart disease later in life. Furthermore, the data provides evidence that changing from a sedentary to an active physical activity pattern, even if initiated at an older age, may result in a strong reduction of coronary heart disease risk.
There is enough evidence which shows that moderate exercise may be enough for individuals who are less fit. But benefits will be the strongest for people who start out being active and stick with it throughout life. Thus encouraging participation in physical activity should start at an early age. But for those who have been inactive for most of their adulthood, it is never too late to start!
