“STRESSED” is DESSERTS spelled backwards

Do you get stressed?

The word ‘stressed‘ is ‘desserts’ spelled backwards. Do you think eating sugar, candies and pastries can make you stressed? I’m sure you’ve noticed the connection, but if you haven’t, please be informed that the ‘pickup’ you think you’ll feel from a candy bar really gives you a big-time low and makes you stressed. Eating the right kind of carbohydrates not only gives you real energy; it prevents being stressed.

The right kinds of carbohydrates are those grown by nature. Have you ever picked, in a garden, a piece of cake or a candy bar? Of course not! You can, however pick fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Look at what you are eating. Does it remotely resemble the way it was picked? Is it a potato that looks like a potato-or is it in the form of a French fry? Carbohydrates provide glycogen, (fuel for the brain and the muscles) for about three hours. When you feel tired and stressed, you’ve probably used what you’ve eaten and it’s time to replenish yourself.

You can actually control whether you’re stressed by making wise choices about the foods you eat. Many people are stressed because they don’t eat. You wouldn’t ask your car to take you very far if it didn’t have any fuel. The least you can do, if you want to prevent being stressed, is to treat your body as good as your car. Eat several small meals throughout the day to supply your body with steady nutrients before you nutritionally “hit the wall” and you won’t end up stressed.

Sweat a little. Exercise is a powerful way to supply your body energy and prevent being stressed. When you exercise, extra endorphins make a positive point of view easier. This is a great way to prevent being a “negaholic”. Negaholics aren’t drinkers, but they do spend a lot of time staring into a glass-the half empty kind. They focus more on negative than the positive, thus you have a tendency to become stressed.  In a Duke University study nearly 40% of depressed patients relying on drugs were stricken with depression again within six months, versus 8% of those who exercised.

The average American eats a whopping 372 pounds of sugar annually. Drinking soda and eating sugar will result in a depletion of calcium in the body which will make you stressed. It can cause tooth decay and cause or affect an established blood sugar problem.

All you habits, not just eating, have a great deal to do with whether you are stressed. Find out success habits to eliminate stress and be happy in the WOW SYSTEM.
