World Wide Rxs To Erase Stress and Anxiety Pt. 2!

                       Lower Stress and Anxiety Naturally! 

As promised, here are some more tips from how the people
of Sicily, Tuscany and Peru ease stress and lower anxiety
levels.
a) Sicily-
Sicilians eat nuts to reduce anxiety levels. Nuts? 

That's right- a nut that's used to flavor desserts like Ice
Cream and pastries and it's the favorite snack food of Rapper
Kanye West.
What is it? Pistachios! The nuts are packed with calming
magnesium, as well as B vitamins that raise levels of the relaxing
amino acid GABA in the brain.
Another benefit: They help you reduce the food cravings
brought on by stress and boredom.
b) Tuscany-
Another Italian country, and their method for staying calm-
Walking. The people of Tuscany walk while doing chores,
they walk to markets, and they walk to visit friends and family. 

Walking has been called "nature's best antidepressant" by some
medical professionals, and it may be true.
Walking releases endorphins (the feel good hormones) and help
bring about calm in less than an hour.
Walk in a circle if you're bothered by something incredibly stressful,
20 mins should do it. Or walk on a trail or hiking path is you feel
your stress levels starting to rise.
c) The Andes Mountains-
The Peruvians who live high atop the Andes mountains
 routinely make it to 100 yrs. of age, thanks to their
laid-back lifestyle, diet and ability to adapt to life's hardships.
One thing the Peruvians do to stay calm and even-tempered-
eat seeds. More specifically a seed called Sacha Inchi.
It's a crunchy seed that's loaded with omega-3 fatty acids,
as well as protein and vitamins A & E. The seeds are also high in trytophan,
which is needed to produce feel-good brain chemicals.
The seeds also help reduce mild bouts of depression. 

Find Sacha Inchi under the name TerrAmazon and they're available
at health-food stores or Whole Foods.

Good Luck and Good Moods!

World-Wide Rxs To Erase Stress and Anxiety!

                             Stop Stress and Anxiety Naturally! 

Are you aware that most of the money being paid to hospitals
and doctors is for sleep aids, diabetes, heart disease, cancer
and anxiety and stress.
Yes, anxiety and stress meds are making a lot of hsopitals
and doctors rich.
If you or a loved one wants to reduce anxiety or stress levels
naturally, look for the natural solutions used by your ancestors.
a) Jamaica-
The Jamaicans love their nutmeg and new research says
that sprinkling a small amount on a cup of hot choc. or tea
or on hot cereal can reduce stress and trigger the brain's
production of alpha waves.
Just a half a tsp. a day, any more and it may trigger hallucinogenic
effects.
b) The Middle East-
Take your pick, Syria, Lebanon, Turkey, Yemen or Iraq.
They use a spice that's used to not only enhance flavor but it looks
good on rice and bean dishes. The spice: Saffron!
In fact, there's an old Persian saying-"If you're very happy, then you
must have had saffron for breakfast."
Saffron is so powerful, one doctor says he'd eliminate
all prescription drugs and prescribe saffron instead.
Saffron improves serotonin levels, (the happiness hormones)
and all you need is a pinch.
And there's more good news, it's now being used to treat women 

and (men) who eat because of emotions and not hunger.
Look for it at specialty shops or look for it in capsule form at
Amazon.com. And be prepared--to pay a lot for it.
c) The Rainforest-
Yes, there's a rainforest in Chile, Brazil and Australia and the Australian 

rainforest has a fruit that's rumored to relieve stress.
What is it? It's called "Finger Lime!" Nicknamed
 "lime caviar" and "citrus pop-rocks" When you eat it,
you'll get a sensation of both lemon and lime.
And thanks to its high levels of vitamin C and potassium, both of which 

help relieve stress and lower anxiety levels. Find this fruit at gourmet
shops or online at ShanleyFarms.com. Just peel and add them to
seafood dishes or make a dessert with them.
That's it- Tomorrow learn the secrets to relieve stress from Sicily
and Peru.
