You Eat to Live, Not Live to Eat

We eat in order to live, and not live in order to eat.

Below is an excerpt from Denny Lyon's blog on the foods that we eat, the foods that we should avoid for mental alertness, how to get a good night sleep:

  • Eat well, and it’ll have positive effects on your brain, because a study of one million New York students showed that those who ate lunches without additives such as artificial flavours, preservatives and dyes performed 14% better in IQ tests.That being said, your brain is the most fatty organ in your body.


  • Overexposure to aluminum compounds—in foil, cookware, deodorants, antacids, toothpaste—can affect brain function.

  •  Your brain is divided into two sides. The left side of your brain controls the right side of your body; and, the right side of your brain controls the left side of your body.


  • Lavender can help you sleep.

  • A cooked potato can jump-start your brain when you're feeling foggy.

  • The essential oil of jasmine can quickly restore mental alertness.
