Alexa Mellardo

…It could cut years off of your life.

Like many Americans, you may not be pleased when you step on the scale after a long, inactive winter. But weight gain and being overweight is more serious than just an unpleasant number—it’s associated with a plethora of health risks and even premature death. According to recent research, having excess body fat in middle age can cut your life by as much as five years.

Victoria Falls, locally called Mosi-oa-Tunya for “The Smoke that Thunders”, is on River Zambezi along the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. Two national parks lie within the area around the falls. As one of the largest waterfalls in the world, the falls spray River Zambezi forest thus giving it “rainfall” 24 hours a day. During the full moon at sunset, the moon’s reflection on the water forms a rainbow (“moonbow”).

According to the Mayo Clinic, we have a ton of reasons to love bananas, especially when we need to diet. The fruit has a lower GI impact than many other fruits, provides a solid amount of fiber to keep us feeling full, and serves up the perfect cocktail of vitamins and minerals with virtually no fat. This fruit really shines when you need to shed some weight off your midsection, and knowing exactly how they affect your body helps us form the perfect attack strategy to melt belly fat.

Got Anxiety? There May Be A Cat For That!

https://www.purewow.com/family/best-cats-for-people-with-anxiety

Many people with anxiety have found adopting pets soothes their souls. Pets have been known to lower cortisol levels, reduce stress and dampen our human fight or flight instincts (which often lead to anxiety). The Cornell Feline Health Center at Cornell University says petting a cat, even for just a few minutes, can improve mood. Dogs are often the go-to when it comes to adopting an emotional support animal. This makes sense for folks who may need a pet they can take with them out into the world. However, cats could prove the better choice for some people with anxiety.
