People of the earlier eras were more serious when it comes to diet than we are today. They understood the importance of food coming from the kitchen rather than fast processed food. They gave their time to cooking because they knew how vital food is to our bodies. (Rachel, 2000, "The History of Diet and Nutrition". Food is very important to our bodies. That is what makes choosing what to eat, important as well. What we eat makes us healthy. The World Health Organization defines health as "the state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity". (World Health Organization, n.d.). What we take in...

By Thomas Oppong, Founder of Alltopstartups Rawpixel.com / Shutterstock Modern research has taught us a lot about what keeps people in love — and what makes them fall out of love. There are dozens of research, (Copy and paste the following link on your browser: (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/jftr.12205),  that teach us a lot about what keeps people in love. Many of them point to the importance of work and effort. Successful relationships emerge when two people invest in their relationship — over time their love becomes stronger, more exciting, and full of fresh emotions and feelings. Relationship researchers are deeply motivated to identify interpersonal patterns of successful relationships and marriage...

    It is important to know that the word Science means knowledge, and scientists seek answers concerning questions about our physical universe. In order to find answers, they use two types of reasoning, which help to solve our problems. These are: Inductive and Deductive reasoning. First, let us look at both of them, compare and contrast them. Finally, I will conclude by which one I prefer the most. Hypothesis-based science, which is usually deductive, begins with a specific question or problem and a potential answer or solution that can be tested. (Pexels-photo) Deductive Reasoning In defining it, Connie et al. (2016) give us a perfect definition of deductive reasoning: "Deductive reason or deduction is the type of logic used in hypothesis-based Science." (Science of Biology, Para. 11). What does that mean? Deductive reasoning means using general ideas or rules to make specific predictions or conclusions. For example: The room might be hot, "if I opened the windows th...

But by developing the skill of savoring, you can maximize your moments — and your experience of time, according to author Laura Vanderkam.    People who feel like time is abundant approach the present in two ways. There’s the practical: they learn to be where they’re supposed to be in enough time that they can relax. Then, the more daring psychological feat: they find ways to savor the space of time where they currently are.    Actively savoring the present stretches your experience of time. To savor is to feel pleasure, and also to appreciate that you are feeling pleasure. It takes normal gratification and adds a second layer to it: acknowledgment. That this a...

   As we approach the holidays, it’s crucial that we keep our immune system strong. One of the best ways to do that is by getting the sleep we need. Studies have shown repeatedly that consistent, quality sleep helps bolster our immunity.    “It’s often said that sleep is the best medicine for prevention of illness, and reports have shown an increase in illness in sleep-deprived individuals,” says Sleep Number’s sleep expert and sleep medicine specialist, Peter Polos, M.D. Ph.D.    Quality sleep, he adds, is integral to supporting and strengthening the immune system.     “Our immune system releases small proteins called cytokines, which play a major role when we’re sick or stressed, to protect us,” says Dr. Polos. “The cytokines increase in order to fight infection. And some of these cytokines can help promote sleep.”    This may be why we tend to sleep more when we are ill, Dr. Polos notes — we’re conserving energy so our body can f...
