Media Underload! The Stress Reducing Psych-Diet

 by: Dr. Robert Eubanks

The war, taxes, the economy, increased health problems, crime on the rise, overwhelming divorce rate, corruption in corporate America, and, oh yes, Janet at the Super Bowl! Where does it end? With so much going wrong, whats going right in the world?

It is times like these that I find myself mired down in the muck spewing forth from every media outlet. Like water dripping on a sponge, this negativity begins to seep in and pervade my thoughts and influence my reactions to the world around me. Often, a bad attitude or a grumpy mood can be traced directly to what I have been exposing myself to.

Look at many of the recent studies about TV violence and childrens behavior. The evidence is clear that the thoughts and actions of kids are significantly altered when exposed to violent acts for extended periods of time. Are adults any different? Sure its important to keep up with current politics, the war, the economy and even Pop culture but when is enough, enough? Dont get me wrong, Im not vowing to stick my fingers in my ears, close my eyes and yell, Find a happy place! Find a happy place!

I still follow the news. There are very significant events happening in the world these days and I do believe that it is important for me to be informed. I also enjoy watching a few TV shows. Just because Im cutting back on my media consumption doesnt mean that Im shutting the Soprano family out of my life! So a few people get whacked here and there. That doesnt mean that there are not some redeeming qualities to gangster life (okay, so there arent). Regardless, the Sopranos and I been though too much together over the past six seasons and recently one of my favorite actors, Steve Buscemi, joined the cast.

I have, however, made a specific effort to be very aware of the information I consume. Along with this effort I have created a diet, of sorts. Balancing the protein, carbohydrates and fat that I eat is no different from balancing the harshness that I partake of from news and entertainment; all in moderation, with a little exercise on the side.

The moderation mantra is, of course, a good philosophy for most areas of life but most particularly for that, which enters our minds. I recently heard an NPR interview with Governator Arnold Schwarzenegger. He was talking about the impact that health and fitness has had on his life and the role that it continues to play. He stated (now, read this with your best Arnold accent), A healthy body is a healthy mind. While certainly this holds true Id like to take that a step farther (using an Arnold accent, of course), A healthy mind is a healthy world! Ready for a diet?

Supplements Information

Natural SupplementsHealthy Foods


A sensible healthy diet will go a long way towards maintaining clear beautiful sparkling eyes for a lifetime and will significantly slow the onset of deteriorating vision and other eye problems.



You are never too young and it's never too late to start a healthy dietary regime to help protect your eyes from risk.



There are many people who have good eyesight into their eighties and beyond. Ageing does not automatically mean that your eyesight will diminish but as ageing progresses changes can occur that may weaken the ability to see.



This can occur as early as the teen years if not earlier.



Sensible precautions to avoid eye strain by spending too long staring at a computer screen, reading small print in bad light, avoiding smoky ill ventilated atmospheres and so on are obvious.



What is less well known is the importance of diet to protect the eyes. The right food for your eyes is essential for optimum eye health.



Fish Oil may help to protect and promote healthy retinal function and has been found to assist in preventing the onset of Macular Degeneration, the leading cause of blindness.



Cod liver oil or fish oil capsules taken daily as a regular addition to your diet is probably the least likely to be overlooked.



Salmon, trout, herrings and any other tasty oily fish can make an occasional and enjoyable meal to supplement the capsules.



Fresh Vegetables and Fruit are very important in helping to maintain effective vision health. Green leafy vegetables contain carotenoides, principally Beta-carotene and Lutein.



Both are antioxidants and are found in spinach, kale,brussel sprouts, broccoli, collard greens, and similar. Egg Yolks also contain beneficial carotenoids.



Berries. Dark berries, such as blackberries blueberries, blackcurrants,cranberries,bilberries will have a beneficial effect by stregthening the capilleries that carry nutrients to the eyes.



Avoid the fats found in many processed and baked foods These will include margerines,fried foods, doughnuts, cookies, pastries, french fries, and biscuits.



These non beneficial fats, known as Trans Fat should not be confused with Omega-3 fatty acids found in Salmon, Trout, Tuna and other oily fish which can decrease the risk of eye disease.



Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a slow but progressive degeneration of central vision for which there is arguably no cure. Risk factors for AMD include genetic inheritance, smoking, high blood pressure or simply advancing age.



It is the most common cause of blindness. Many sufferers of AMD or who are at risk of the disease have no factors that can they can control to mitigate or avoid the onset of the disease with the possible exception of nutrition.



Studies have shown that individuals with the highest consumption of dark leaved green vegetables rich in carotenoids, such as raw spinach or kale had a significantly lower chance of developing AMD than those who ate these foods the least.



High levels of antioxidant vitamins and zinc can also be effective in lowering the risk of developing the disease and can also slow its progression.



There is a school of thought that the bilberry or blueberry can prevent or even reverse AMD and sufferers are advised to investigate this as a possible treatment. These studies clearly show the importance of nutrition in prevention and slowing the development of AMD.



Do obtain qualified medical advice before taking high dose nutritional supplements for the control of AMD as there may be other risk factors, not associated with eye care, to take into account. This is particularly important for smoker

News on SupplementsBarley Grass Powder



Chemicals, such as inks, dyes, and perfumes, can upset the balance in your crotch or trigger allergic reactions that lead to yeast infections. the classic example is commercial douches, which have no benefits and are definitely harmful to the vaginal environment and your health. You know those odor-causing bacteria that their products help you get rid of? Well, they're the same bacteria that kill the yeast in your crotch! on top of that, soaps are not only disruptive to the vaginal environment, but can damage your mucus membranes. you should never soap your crotch. but there are other, less obvious sources of nasty chemicals. For example, i've had serious problems with those nasty colored, perfumed toilet papers, like Charmin; 5 days of that and i am yeast central.
