7 Signs You Have An Iodine Deficiency

January 26, 2016 by Power of Positivity

When many of us contemplate ways to achieve optimal health, many share a general consensus that we need to eat healthy, exercise, and stay away from harmful habits – smoking, drinking to excess, etc. One area that doesn’t seem to get the recognition it deserves is appropriate supplementation. We often fail to ensure that our bodies consume an adequate amount of vitamins and minerals. Specifically, iodine deficiency can have dire consequences on the body.

While we may have learned about iodine in chemistry class, little to nothing is taught about the element’s function as it relates to the human body. Turns out, iodine is essential to our body’s health on a number of levels. In fact, there are few minerals that have a bigger impact on our overall well-being.

The opening abstract that preceded the introduction of this article is from a 1999 study by the New England Journal of Medicine. Researchers discovered that pregnant women with untreated hypothyroidism – a condition where the body lacks insufficient thyroid hormone – negatively impacted children’s cognitive development. Most, unfortunately, the children involved in this study also scored lower on tests of attention, language, and visual-motor performance.

Causes of Iodine Deficiency

One of the root causes of hypothyroidism is iodine deficiency. This is because the thyroid gland requires the mineral in order to regulate the metabolism and development of the skeleton and brain, in addition to a few other purposes. Dr. Jorge Flechas – one of the world’s most prominent experts on hypothyroidism – cites insufficient iodine as a cause or contributing factor to a number of different developmental problems. Among these are:

Goiter: abnormal enlargement of the thyroid gland.
Cognitive and developmental delays: below-average levels of intellectual function.
Cretinism: severe impairments in physical and mental development due to untreated congenital hypothyroidism.
Cancer: including breast, stomach, thyroid, ovary, and prostate.

Dr. David Brownstein, also a world-renowned physician and author of the book Iodine: Why You Need It, Why You Can’t Live Without It, states that iodine is one of the most misunderstood and unvalued nutrients. He then cites a variety of different diseases and conditions that proper iodine supplementation can alleviate or prevent, including:

ADHD
Autism
Breast, Thyroid, Ovarian, and Uterine Cancer
Fatigue
Fibrocystic Breasts
Graves’ Disease
Hashimoto’s Disease
Hypothyroidism
Malfunctioning immune system

Additionally, iodine deficiency is a precursor to a number of different health problems. Fortunately, the iodization of common table salt has drastically reduced the numbers of iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) in developed countries. Health professionals are still concerned, as studies show the average American’s iodine intake dropping nearly 50% over a 20-year span.

Now that we understand iodine’s importance, let’s examine some of the more common symptoms of iodine deficiency. We’ll also provide some common food sources of iodine.

Here are 7 symptoms of iodine deficiency:

Even a mild, symptom-free case of thyroid deficiency in a pregnant woman can affect her child’s IQ scores years late, results of a study suggest. Children aged 7 to 9 who had mothers with untreated hypothyroidism in pregnancy had IQ scores about 7 points lower than youngsters of women without such a deficiency. – The New England Journal of Medicine

1. Increased fatigue

Increased fatigue directly relates to the inactivity of the thyroid. This can manifest into a noticeable drop in energy levels. As a result, this symptom of individuals is one of the first noted with an iodine deficiency.

Dietitians explain the dangers of a B6 deficiency (and how to beat it!).

2. Weight gain

When iodine is insufficient, our bodies’ metabolic functions experience a drop-off – this slows the body’s ability to convert food into energy. As a result, fat is more likely to be stored in our cells.

3. Increased sensitivity to cold

Increasing sensitivity to cold generally implicates a slow metabolism. As our metabolic rate decreases, blood flow does as well. Less blood flow to our organs – including our skin – can result in excessive feelings of coldness.

4. Dry skin

20% of all iodine is stored in our skin, specifically in the sweat glands. The absence of iodine in the sweat glands results in a decreased ability to perspire. Combining this effect with decreased iodine supplementation, our skin doesn’t receive enough moisture. The result of this dryness manifests as dry, flaky, or cracked skin.

5. Constipation

Deficient iodine levels slow the normal functioning of the digestive tract. It also inhibits the ability of stomach muscles to properly contract. That functionality is necessary to move waste through the intestine. So if you suffer from constipation often, consider the presence of an iodine deficiency.

6. Depressed mood

Areas of the world that suffer from disproportionate cases of hypothyroidism cite depression as one of the commonly-reported symptoms. The symptom of depression is believed to be the result of the myriad of adverse effects an inactive thyroid has on hormonal stability and cognitive function.

7. Thin or brittle hair and nails

The underproduction of thyroid hormones effectively disrupts the supply of important nutrients to the hair and nails. So without sufficient nutrients, the normal growth and development of hair and nails are stunted. As a result, this can potentially lead to thinning and brittleness of hair and nails.

Fortunately, many healthy and widely-available food sources contain iodine. While iodized table salt may be the most convenient, here are some others: seaweed, bread, navy beans, baked potatoes, strawberries, and cranberries.

Multi-vitamins and other supplements are also available that will deliver the recommended daily amounts of iodine.

5 Signs You’re Being Taken Advantage Of

January 26, 2016 by Power of Positivity

In an ideal world, all of our relationships would be fruitful and contribute to a sense of purpose. Unfortunately, the trials and tribulations of life often derail even our best intentions. We enter in relationships intending to make things work and to give all of ourselves to someone else. But as with a countless number other things, relationships are fallible. The time may come when you start to take your partner for granted. That’s not atypical. Relationships will always be fallible because human beings are fallible.

People distance themselves from one another all the time. This often leads to the earnest desire to get things back to “the way they were.” This is a very natural, human emotion. Nearly every person that enters into more than one relationship will assuredly experience thoughts and feelings of inadequacy and low self-worth. Nearly every person will want to break down those relationship barriers that have derailed such a sacred bond.

Relationship experts continuously stress the importance of communication in any type of mutual partnership – friendship, marriage, dating, etc. It is often the breakdown of communication between two people that eventually results in a failed relationship. This is mentioned because every one of the below-mentioned “signs” has a common denominator: some type of breakdown in communication. Keep this in mind.

Here are five signs your partner is taking you for granted:

I now know that things I always thought I could depend on can crash in an instant. Because of the love that I have been shown, I now know what it means to be ‘beloved.’ I now know that no breath is to be taken for granted. – Rebecca Wells

1. They are always gone

Remember during those initial phases of a relationship when we’re seemingly always attached to the other person? Well, it’s indeed a “phase” for most of us…on some level. It’s normal that as a relationship develops, we strive for a bit more independence and alone-time. After all, we’re together quite often and time apart is healthy… again, on some level.

Many people that were victims in a failed relationship had been avoided by their partner. The relationship essentially gets to a point where the other person feels like bailing. Maybe the relationship is a bit more complex – children involved, finances, owning a home, etc. – and they can’t or won’t completely disengage. In that instance, they’ll just disappear for long stretches of time without much explanation.

2. They display a severe lack of trust

A severe, unwarranted lack of trust is an affront to the character of another person. In essence, they’re taking for granted the foundation on which the relationship was laid. When one person can’t trust the word of their partner, it’s often to the demise of a relationship.

They’ve trusted enough to enter into a relationship. But for whatever reason, they irrationally doubt the intentions of the other person. In a sense, this is a lack of engagement; a lack of engagement that could easily be overcome if they were willing to engage in constructive dialogue. The problem is that they’re often not willing to do so. In reality, many partners with trust issues have them because of their own self-image and ego.

3. The conversations are one-sided

One of the best ways to show someone your love is to listen to them respectfully. How many times have we heard “he/she doesn’t listen enough?” This is perhaps the most prevalent complaint that marriage or couples therapists hear. This problem usually manifests itself in one of two ways: either we’re always doing the talking or they are. Either way, the conversation is a one-way street.

When we don’t make a conscious effort to actively listen to our partner, we’re showing an egregious level of disrespect. When we’re not making an effort to engage in any type of meaningful dialogue, we’re showing an egregious level of disrespect. The bottom line is that effective, two-way communication is a must for a relationship to be healthy.

4. They don’t keep their commitments

How many of us remember our first date or our first serious relationship? When we gave our word that we’d be somewhere at some time, we were there. Granted, some of this fastidiousness may have been during the “honeymoon phase,” but we did our best to be there.

As with most relationships that develop, it’s normal to be a bit laxer about our role in the relationship. We get comfortable, we think we know the well-meaning intentions of the other person…so, we just let it slide. Then we let it slide some more until we come to the realization that something is obviously wrong.

Taking someone’s time for granted is taking them for granted, period. When it happens continuously, it’s almost always a sign of disengagement.

5. They show a lack of empathy

Of all the above-mentioned signs, this may be the most hurtful. In a relationship, empathy – at its core – is an expression of love. When we’re separated from the feelings of another person, we start to withhold the emotional feedback that they need at a given time. This is something we do to someone who’s irreparably lost our interest; or perhaps, never had it in the first place.

When we’re in love with someone, it’s only human that we’re sensitive to their thoughts and feelings. When this no longer becomes the case, someone is being taken for granted in the worst way imaginable. Nobody in any kind of relationship should have to experience that.

6 Things That Determine How Long You’ll Live

January 25, 2016 by Power of Positivity

How long you will live is partially a matter of chance and partially determined by you and the lifestyle that you lead. Advances in science and medicine have made the lifespan of the average man and woman longer than they ever have been before.

Diet, exercise, family health history, alcohol consumption, and other factors affect how long you’ll live. Since those are factors that you know about, let’s look at 6 things that you didn’t already know that will determine how long you’ll live.

6 Things That Determine How Long You’ll Live

1. Your Level of Happiness

Being an upbeat person who knows the power of positivity can lead you to live a full, healthy, and rewarding life. When you have felt the healing power of smiles, laughter, joy and bliss, you know that a life without the intangible things make a long life worthwhile.

In a long-term study of 700 nuns over many decades, who, as you would expect, were non-smokers, non-drinkers, and abstained from sex, found that those with more positive emotions as young adults tended to live longer than those who did not.

2. Healthy Relationships

From friends to romantic partners, your ability to have sustained connections with other people determines how long you will live. The more close relationships you have that are fulfilling to your mental and emotional well-being, the better for your physical health as well.

Relationships provide an outlet for relieving anxiety, boosting mood and sharing meaningful experiences. When you have a network of friends and supporters who enjoy your company, you feel valued, improving your self-worth.

Having a romantic partnership you can connect with physically and emotionally is also significant for your health. A deep, loving relationship protects your emotional health and helps determine your life span. If you haven’t found your next great relationship, read our article on 3 reasons why lonely people stay lonely.

3. Living Honestly

Lucille Ball said ‘The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.’ It turns out that she was partly right. Living honestly allows you to be your authentic self, which is more fulfilling than hiding a part of yourself.

People who are honest about their shortcomings have less stress between the personality that they try to portray and their actual selves. An excellent example of this would be someone who feels the need to hide their sexual preferences due to fears about the opinions of others. Not having to live a lie helps your mental health and well-being and helps determine how long you’ll live.

4. Your Sleep Habits

Research has repeatedly told us that getting 7-8 hours of sleep per night is healthy for us and can add years to your life. In one study, older people who kept strictly regular sleeping and waking schedules were also more likely to have better cholesterol levels. Regular sleep patterns helped determine how long subjects will live.

It is also helpful to sleep in as dark a room as possible, which helps prevent you from waking during the night and disrupting your circadian rhythm. It seems more helpful to achieve deep and restful sleep if your room is set at a temperature of 64 degrees.

5. Your Level of Sedentary Behavior

So many of us have workplaces where our level of activity is minimal. Most people lack any physical movement for eight or more hours of the day at work. That sedentary lifestyle, combined with our tendency to sit and watch TV or surf the internet during non-working hours, negatively impacts how long you’ll live.

If your workplace or home life has a lot of sitting, try adding walking or stretching breaks every 90 minutes. With a workplace with strict time management requirements, get HR to help your case for adding exercise for the employees to reduce health care costs for your employer.

You can make a rule to stand and move every commercial break if you are at home. Additionally, you can do isometric muscle exercises as you sit. Try tensing and releasing different muscle groups. Keeping your body moving will help determine how long you’ll live.

6. Your Level of Physical Activity

Not only is our lack of movement a problem for how long we will live, but our lack of significant physical exercise is also. Adding a physical fitness program to your daily lifestyle can add years to your life.

As we mentioned, getting up to move rather than sitting watching TV is a good idea. Add yoga during commercials for a flexibility boost. Yoga can also help relieve stress which will help increase how long you’ll live.

Aerobic exercise can help reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, diabetes and other illnesses that can cause serious health problems and shorten your lifespan.

Here’s How You Can Literally Lose Weight In Your Sleep

January 24, 2016 by Power of Positivity

Many of us want to lose weight, but did you know you can shed some unwanted pounds while you get your beauty rest? It sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me; all you have to do is sleep, and the pounds melt away. Of course, you will need to form certain habits to optimize your body for weight loss during sleep, but once you have them down, you can drop the pounds while you doze away.

Here’s how you can lose weight in your sleep:

Have protein before bed

According to a study done by researchers at Florida State University, men who had a protein shake with at least thirty grams of protein before bed had a higher resting energy expenditure than those who ate nothing before bedtime. Protein can also aid in muscle repair, greatly benefiting those who lift heavy weights or do other strenuous exercises.

Make your room as dark as possible.

According to a study in the Journal of Pineal Research, complete darkness allows the body to produce the hormone melatonin, promoting sleep and enhancing calorie burning. To fill your room with dark, get blackout curtains if you live near security lights, cover alarm clocks and other devices that emit light, and turn off the TV before bed. Even small lights can disrupt sleep, creating a peaceful, sleep-inducing environment to get to bed more easily at night.

Set a comfortable temperature for sleep

If we have to get up all night hours to adjust to the temperature, we will lose valuable time that we could’ve used to sleep. Before going to bed, set the thermostat at a comfortable temperature, no matter if you like it on the cooler or hotter side. According to doctors, study participants who slept in rooms with a temperature of 66 degrees burned seven percent more calories than those who slept in warmer rooms.

Their bodies had to work harder to raise their core temperature to 98.6 degrees, which helps burn calories. Seven percent equals about one hundred calories burned during sleep, so keep your room cool if you want to lose weight while you sleep!

Turn off technology

No surprise here, right? Laying in bed scrolling through Facebook, texting people, or watching YouTube videos makes our brains think we need to stay awake when we need to get to sleep. The bright blue lights from phones, computers, and tablets signal to our brains that we need to remain awake because out in nature, the light from the sun would tell us to wake up. So, naturally, any artificial light promotes the same response.

These lights disrupt the body’s melatonin production and impact metabolism. Researchers from Singapore also linked long television-watching sessions to higher triglycerides and lower adiponectin, leading to diabetes and difficulty in regulating glucose levels.

So, make sure to keep your time on technology to a minimum during the day and get as much natural light as possible.

Set a bedtime

Getting to bed regularly each night allows our bodies to get used to a routine. Sleep heals our bodies, allowing vital hormones to be released and cells to be repaired. Adults need around 7-8 hours of sleep per night, and one of the best ways to ensure you get adequate sleep is to stick to a schedule. Avoid staying up late binge-watching shows or scrolling through Facebook; you can do these activities, of course, but turn off technology a couple of hours before bed. Many studies connect sleep deprivation to weight gain, obesity, diabetes, and other health-related illnesses, so start up a bedtime routine to prepare your body for sleep each night.

According to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, people who got adequate sleep burned twenty percent more calories after eating than those who weren’t well-rested. Also, they had a 5 percent higher resting energy expenditure, which tells us that sleep and calories burned undoubtedly go hand-in-hand.

Final Thoughts on How Sleeping Well Can Help Support Your Weight Loss Efforts

Doctors have long suspected that insomnia contributes to weight gain and sluggishness. Now research studies back up that hunch. So if you need to shed a few pounds to improve your health, remember to focus on improving your sleep quantity and quality. In the end, it will contribute to a healthier new you.

10 Signs You’re In A One-Sided Relationship

January 24, 2016 by Power of Positivity

A one-sided relationship can be exhausting for the person who is not in control. You begin to feel like things are unfair when it comes to the balance of your love. If you’re feeling a bit off-balance, here are 10 possible signs that you’re in a one-sided relationship.

10 Signs You’re In A One-Sided Relationship

1. You’re tired of giving

A relationship should be give and take, but one of you is doing all the giving and the other takes more than their share. You remembered your partner’s birthday but they forgot yours. You brought home a surprise take out dinner but they never return the favor.

The one-sided giving doesn’t have to be monetary either. Are you the one always giving your partner pleasure in the bedroom, but when they have their fun they roll over and go to sleep?

2. Trust in a relationship is a one-way street

Your partner told their work colleague about that part of your anatomy that you are self-conscious about and it got back to you. Even a small betrayal of trust can hurt a relationship dramatically. How can you trust your partner with small secrets if you can’t trust them with bigger ones?

3. Your friends or family don’t approve of the relationship

Your relationship is one-sided if you know that your friends and/or family don’t approve of your mate. They have probably observed selfish behavior and a pattern of disrespect and do not want that for you.

4. You are the keeper of the relationship history

You know when your first date was, your first kiss, and the anniversary of the first time you made love, but your partner is oblivious to these significant events. If you are the event-planner for your relationship, it could signify a one-sided relationship.

5. You know nothing about your partner’s family

Although you have made an effort to bring your romantic relationship and your family together, your partner has never done the same for you. It’s as though you’ve been kept a secret from any of their relatives.

6. You do all of the emotional work in the relationship

Researchers call caring for others’ emotions the “emotional work” of relationships. A study in the Journal of Family Issues reported that in a study of the psychological health of 102 couples with children:

Family members do work to meet people’s emotional needs, improve their well-being, and maintain harmony.
When emotional work is shared equally, both men and women have access to emotional resources in the family.
However, like housework and child care, the distribution of emotional work is split into male and female roles.

Keeping the relationship in an emotional balance is difficult work. If your partner isn’t supporting your feelings as you support theirs, you are in a one-sided relationship.

7. You do more than your fair share of housework.

You walk the dog, do the dishes more, clean the house, and prepare dinner far more often than your partner does; why are things so one-sided when it comes to whose responsibility it is for getting things done?

Your partner should want to display their love for you through the little things. Saying “I love you” is far more than just expressing it verbally. Some of the truest “I Love You’s” come in the form of these daily chores that they don’t mind helping with.

8. You spend more money on your partner than they do on you

When it comes to the finances of your relationship, you pick up the check more often than your partner does. Not that you are keeping track of how much you have spent on them, but you get a general sense that there is a lack of balance between your level of contribution and your partner’s.

Sometimes one of you feels the need to control the finances, which according to one study can affect the level of satisfaction in a relationship. When one person controls the economics of the partnership, the other one has less control and tends to place blame on their partner for restricting their ability to make decisions with money.

9. Your partner doesn’t seem to care.

You were gone all day but your partner never bothered to ask you where you were or what you were doing. Did they even notice you were gone? When your partner seems unconcerned about what you did with your day, they are treating you more like a casual roommate than a romantic partner.

Partners care for each other and they demonstrate that by expressing an interest in their mate’s activities. No, your partner shouldn’t be grilling you for information, but they should at least be curious about what they encountered out in the world without them.

10. You suspect you may love your partner more than they love you.

The relationship had felt one-sided in your heart too. With fewer signs of caring than you had hoped for from your partner, you start to wonder if they don’t love you as much as you love them.

Romantic partners who see their lover flirting with another potential romantic partner shouldn’t feel jealous if they have a decent sense of self-worth, however, it is natural to be curious about the nature of their relationship. If your partner hasn’t even noticed that you were kind of flirting with the cashier, it’s a sign that you are in a one-sided relationship.

15 Ways To Improve Your Eye Health

January 24, 2016 by Power of Positivity

According to a Gallup survey, seven out of ten Americans wear some type of corrective lenses. 40% of those people have considered laser eye surgery to correct their vision, but this surgery can permanently damage vision, as well as cause chronic dry eyes, and other complications. Instead of opting for a dangerous, irreversible surgery, what if you could use natural remedies to at least improve your eye health and eyesight, even slightly?

Many natural herbs and plants have been proven to increase eye health, and while you might not have 20/20 vision after using them, you may have better eyesight than before, and save yourself from costly bills and a dangerous surgery.

Here are 15 natural remedies that will improve your eye health:

1. Saffron

Saffron, used in many traditional Indian dishes, can also help save your eyesight and prevent UV radiation damage. It can also slow the progression of macular degeneration, which eventually leads to blindness. Two compounds found in saffron believed to improve eye health include safranal and crocin, members of the carotenoid family. Carotenoids include beta carotene, a type of Vitamin A that can improve eyesight and also protect against cancer.

2. Pycnogenol

The powerful antioxidant found in France can repair capillaries in the eyes, and therefore reduce leakage into the retina. Other studies have found that pycnogenol can also improve microcirculation, increase visual acuity, and prevent retinal edema.

3. Silymarin

You can find this compound in milk thistle, which can help maintain a healthy liver. The liver stores fat soluble vitamins, glutathione, and B vitamins, which all support healthy eyes.

4. Bilberries

Anthocyanides found in bilberries might improve eye health by protecting the retina, and including bilberries in your diet may also prevent macular degeneration, glaucoma, and cataracts.

5. Gingko biloba

The gingko plant and its extracts have been used to treat a variety of different ailments. They’ve shown promise in treating vision problems in people with diabetes, improving color vision when patients take the extract orally. Also, it might help improve existing damage to the visual field in people with glaucoma.

6. Bentonite clay

Bentonite clay can pull toxins from the body, reduce eye strain, and even help heal eye infections. In some cases, people have used it to treat cataracts.

7. Fennel

According to livestrong.com, fennel contains many nutrients that can improve eye health. These include Vitamin A and C, powerful antioxidants that can protect against macular degeneration and cataracts.

8. Cayenne

Cayenne, a potent anti-inflammatory, can increase blood flow to the eyes and relieve swelling around mucus membranes.

9. Jaborandi

Jaborandi, an herb found in the rainforest, has been used for many years to treat patients with glaucoma. It contains pilocarpine, an alkaloid compound which prompts the constriction of the pupils and decreased pressure in the eye.

10. Coleus

According to WebMD, forskolin, a chemical found in the roots of the Coleus plant, can be used in drop form to treat people with glaucoma. These drops also have the potential to decrease intraocular pressure and increase blood flow in the eyes.

11. Endive juice

Endive, which contains high levels of Vitamin A, can help restore poor eyesight in people with myopia, or nearsightedness. You can also combine it with carrot or parsley juice for even better results.

12. Raw garlic

Garlic contains high amounts of selenium, which can help to increase antioxidants in the body and improve eye health. Some people use it to heal macular degeneration, eating two or three cloves per day for the best results.

13. Carrot juice

Carrots have been associated with healthy eyes for quite some time now, as carrots contain a high amount of Vitamin A, a vital nutrient for good vision. You can either juice carrots to get the nutrients, cut them up and eat them as a snack, or whichever way you prefer to enjoy them.

14. Coriander

Coriander contains a high amount of antioxidants as well, making it a great natural remedy for maintaining eye health and preventing diseases of the eye.

15. Raw almonds

Almonds are loaded with Vitamin E, which can slow down macular degeneration, protect the eyes from free radicals, and delay cataract formation, according to research.

In addition to these natural remedies, make sure you take breaks from technology throughout the day, as staring at one object for hours at a time can strain your eyes and harm your vision. Also, make sure you eat a balanced diet full of healthy fruits and vegetables, and try to perform relaxation techniques, which will help reduce stress in and around the eyes.
