You can start your day by hitting the snooze button, dragging yourself out of bed at the last minute, rushing to get ready, and then running out the door with a doughnut in one hand and your briefcase in the other.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND SLEEP There’s some debate on how long the right length of time for an adult to sleep is. The two major theories are 8 hours each night, or five sleep cycles each night.

Each sleep cycle ends with a period of REM sleep, where activity is high, and dreaming occurs. This is when you’ll have your ....

Each type has different health effects. What is Fiber? Put simply, dietary fiber is a non-digestible carbohydrate found in foods.

Read moreYour body is in a constant state of hormonal and energy ebbing and flowing, and depending on what time of day it is and what activities you are engaged in, your nutrition needs are varied. When what you eat closely matches what your body needs most (hint: that usually isn't a box of junk food!) you can eat many more calories and still lose fat. The ability to eat more calories and actually lose fat means you will not have to deprive yourself of eating, and you won't have to deprive your body of all the nutrition it needs to function at its best. Critical Time #1: First-thing in the Morning Upon waking up, you have been fasting for at least eight hours in most ....
