I have just come across a fantastic video for Evolving Wellness, by reading a blog I enjoy called, Fertilehealthy. It is one of those videos that is worth spreading to as many people as possible, as it cleverly illustrates with humour a sad reality which many of us live in when it comes to our health and our unwillingness to open up our mind for a change and see what really is going on. Check out the video and then read on for some more information with regards to treatment versus prevention when it comes to your health.
In researching for myself and you, I am always on the lookout for good, quality sites that are relavant in some way to our health. One of these sites that I have just added to our resource page is the Skin Deep: Cosmetic Safety Database.
This database is extremely valuable to anyone out there who wants quick, credible and comprehensive information on any ingredient found on personal care labels. The site is brought to you by the researchers at the Environmental Working Group, which is already listed as a trusted and valuable site in our resources section. Their mission and vision is very similar to that of what Evolving Wellness stands for and that is “to use the power of information to protect human health and the environment.”
Today brings us to the last part of our 5 part series on “how to live a long and healthy life.” For the past four days we have been learning about the populations who live the healthiest and longest and the reasons for their success. Yesterday we learned that the most important link to health and longevity is having good coping mechanisms for stress and we also found out that the residents of Glasgow, UK have the shortest lifespan in the world and the genetic reasons for that.
Today we conclude the documentary entitled “How to Live to 101″, by revisiting the residents from Okinawa, Japan and seeing if their health and longevity still prevails when they emigrate to new countries or in their children’s generations. Watch the last part now, and follow up with the summary of this session after your viewing.
