What is heat Exhaustion and HOW to Avoid it...
The summertime can be deadly. With staggering high temperatures and extreme humidity, it's hard to step outside without sweating buckets. We have to remember that we are only human, and prolonged periods of exercising or being outdoors can lead to heat exhaustion or even heat stroke. Your body is typically about 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. But if you add exercise in the mixture, it can rise up to three degrees higher! To cool down, we sweat. But when sweating doesn't cut it, we become dehydrated, dizzy, super sweaty and weak. If you don't take care of your body, it can result to fainting and heat stroke. And I wouldn't want you guys to faint, how are you supposed to make it to class?! Here are the steps to keep your body happy, well hydrated, and (less) sweat free!

Have you ever felt groggy and tired after a night out of drinking? Unfortunately, many of us have, even though you may have slept 15 hours. While alcohol may help us fall asleep quicker and deeper, it completely messes the QUALITY of sleep, especially the second part of the REM cycle, the stage that we go into deep sleep and dream. That's why many of us tend to skip dreaming the nights we decide to booze. During this stage, the body is supposed to rest, heal and restore itself but, with much thanks to alcohol, our sleep cycle is often disrupted throughout the course of the night. Instead of slowly drifting in a deep healing state of slumber, our body is concentrating on rebounding from the effects of alcohol. Alcohol impedes the natural body's stimulant, glutamine. So our body's natural reaction is to overproduce glutamine, which then stimulates the brain and prevents us from sleeping. Alcohol tricks us into thinking that we are getting a good nights sleep because we fall asleep faster than a normal night, but the fact is that alcohol inhibits your body from mentally and physically restoring to health. But that doesn't mean that you should exile alcohol from your life, here are a few things to keep in mind before you go out for a few drinks this weekend! Read more...
