5 Foods That Are Surprisingly Healthy

Eating healthily doesn't mean sacrificing flavor. Some foods often considered guilty pleasures can be surprisingly good for you. Here are five unexpectedly healthy options for your next snack. Pasta. Low in fat and salt, pasta keeps you satiated longer, reducing the likelihood of overeating. Popcorn. Often dismissed as junk food, popcorn is rich in fiber, supporting digestion and providing vitamin B, manganese and magnesium. Honey. A natural sweetener loaded with antioxidants, honey offers cell protection, anti-inflammatory benefits and contributes to a healthy gut. Chocolate. Dark chocolate contains flavonoids that may safeguard against cell damage, lower blood pressure, and improve heart and brain health. Alcohol. In moderation, alcohol can offer protection against heart disease, kidney stones, gallstones and type 2 diabetes. However, it's crucial to avoid excessive consumption for optimal well-being.

Easing Anxiety: Natural Ways To Reduce Cortisol Levels

Cortisol is known as the stress hormone and although it plays a key part in our body’s function, high levels of it can have bad effects. Some of the effects include anxiety, decreased libido and muscle weakness, so here are a few ways to correct those levels. The first thing that you need to do is to get sufficient sleep as a rested body and mind will help you deal with stressful situations better. Next, you should exercise regularly as not only is it good for your mind, but it also helps release built-up tension and stress in your body. It is also advised to practice relaxation techniques like meditation or deep breathing exercises which will help lower your heart rate and blood pressure. You should also learn why you’re stressed out and plan out a way of fixing these issues in order to lower your cortisol levels. Lastly, healthy distractions are beneficial as they will help regulate your stress levels, so finding a hobby you can regularly do is helpful.
