Even as a child, James was described by teachers and his parentsas a happy optimist. As the story goes, one day his parentsdecided to play a joke on him and test his attitude by requiringhim to spend an afternoon cleaning deserted stables at what hadbeen a local racetrack.Returning after two hours, James' parents observed him singingwhile happily shoveling manure. Astounded, they walked closer,only to hear him saying to himself over and over, 'There has tobe a pony in here somewhere.'James did naturally what researchers are increasinglydiscovering: optimistic thinking skills are a powerful antidoteto anger partly because the optimist has better resistance todepression when bad events strike, better performance at work,better physical health and better relationships. Who couldn'tadmire and love a person with such a great attitude?But what if you are not naturally optimistic? How can you becomean optimist if you now insist on seeing the glass as half-emptyinstead of half...

Thu, 22 Jul 2010 23:34:01 -0500

Many people have asked me what foods they should eat in order tocut down on the sugar cravings. And in the past I've always hadto say "I don't know."Now, maybe I can actually offer something more hopeful.Kicking a sugar habit is no easy chore, especially since we'resurrounded by the stuff. Almost every packaged food orconvenience product is made from sugar, or white flour, whichis about the same thing.We struggle to overcome the initial reluctance to change, thenwe live through the two weeks of mild withdrawal symptoms, andthen we have to worry about relapse when we let down our guardon a stressful day.Sometimes it just doesn't seem fair.Dr. Ron Rosedale may have the answer for us. He says that oursugar cravings are associated with a leptin insensitivity.Leptin is that hormone that researchers were very excited abouta few years ago. They discovered that giving a small dose ofthis natural hormone to laboratory mice caused them to eat less,and they lost weight.Resear...

When we discover that we are heavier than we want to be, we havea natural inclination to eat less food. We may skip lunch or eatonly a tiny amount of our dinner in the hope that if we eat lessour body will burn off some of its fat. But that is notnecessarily true. Eating less can actually sometimes make itmore difficult to lose weight because of the imbalance in yourlifestyle.Keep in mind that the human body took shape millions of yearsago, and at that time, there were no such things as diets, letalone fad diets. The only low-calorie event in people's liveswas starvation. Those who could cope with a temporary lack offood were the ones who survived. Our bodies therefore, havedeveloped this built-in mechanism to help us survive in the faceof low food intake. Losing weight is not something you can doovernight. A carefully planned weight loss program requirescommon sense and certain guidelines. Unfortunately, there is alot of misinformation floating around and lots of despe...
