Negative ions are called anions. Negative ions are odorless, tasteless, and invisible molecules that we inhale in abundance in certain environments — in a shower or after a thunderstorm. When you breath them in, your mood is boosted and your pain reduced.
If I had my life to live over, I’d try to make more mistakes next time. I
would relax, I would limber up, I would be sillier than I have been this
trip. I know of very few things I would take seriously. I would be crazier.
I would climb more mountains, swim more rivers and watch more sunsets. I’d
travel and see. I would have more actual troubles and fewer imaginary ones.
You see, I am one of those people who lives prophylactically and sensibly
and sanely, hour after hour, day after day. Oh, I have had my moments and,
if I had it to do over again, I’d have more of them. In fact, I’d try to
have nothing else. Just moments, one after another, instead of living so many
years ahead each day. I have been one of those people who never go anywhere
without a thermometer, a hotwater bottle, a gargle, a raincoat and a parachute.
If I had it to do over again, I would go places and do things and travel
lighter than I have. If I had my life to live over, I would start bare-footed
earlier in the spring and stay that way later in the fall. I would play hooky
more. I probably wouldn’t make such good grades, but I’d learn more. I would
ride on more merry-go-rounds. I’d pick more daisies.

The health benefits of chlorophyll are many, from giving you fresh breath to helping prevent cancers. Some good examples of foods that contain high levels of chlorophyll are spinach, parsley and basil. Chlorophyll is what makes plants green.
A new study shows a vegetarian diet is less healthy than a well balanced diet. (More on “Humans Are Omnivores”)
Our study has shown that Austrian adults who consume a vegetarian diet are less healthy (in terms of cancer, allergies, and mental health disorders), have a lower quality of life, and also require more medical treatment. Therefore, a continued strong public health program for Austria is required in order to reduce the health risk due to nutritional factors. Moreover, our results emphasize the necessity of further studies in Austria, for a more in- depth analysis of the health effects of different dietary habits.
There are two main reasons why juicing is not as good for you as eating the whole food.
1) Juicing removes much of the nutritional value from food including fiber. The fiber helps you digest the food in a healthier fashion. You are much less likely to get a spike in your sugar levels when consuming sugars with the fiber.
2) Juicing increases your caloric intake. Typically, you consume 4 times more calories when juicing.
There are other disadvantages to juicing, such as, increasing toxicity of certain foods. For instance, raw kale contains a substance that can be toxic. Juicing kale increases the toxicity.
