Is your enthusiasm and good intentions of sticking to your New Year’s resolutions wearing off? The optimism and revitalisation that most of us experience at the start of the year often fade when day to day worries and pressures begin to cloud our focus and weaken our resolve.

I’m always amazed at the crazy things I hear about or witness seeing people eating. Like tonight my husband and I watched the TV show “Man vs. Food”. Have you ever watched that show? It’s quite something. Sure it might be entertaining, for some, but I find it disturbing to see food depicted as a sporting event.

It’s the New Year and it’s time to clean up your act -right? Well there are some habits you may not have thought were unhealthy or needed to be ditched. I reveal some of those shortly.

Just as with a toddler, it seems that the second you step into the car or a restaurant, it is time to go to the bathroom when you are caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s disease.

As the caregiver, son, daughter, spouse, friend, or relative of a loved one with Alzheimer’s disease, there are many difficult decisions to be made.

You are what you eat. Fuel your brain with the right foods to boost mental stamina and improve memory and learning.

As the caregiver you forge ahead on this windy journey known as Alzheimer’s disease, trying to maintain strength and courage within yourself and also trying to keep things relatively normal for your loved one. If Tuesday card games are a regular event, you want to keep going, not just for the socialization of your loved one but for your own well-being.

By the late middle to end stages of Alzheimer’s disease, many loved ones have trouble eating and drinking. This is in part because of a lack of interest in food or missing hunger pangs, and also because choking becomes a constant potential hazard. As the power of the mind to send messages to systems that used to work automatically, adequate chewing and the loss of the swallowing reflex create frightening moments.

When does persuasion become bullying? Is it when information capable of manipulating your decisions is being presented in ways you are unaware of perceiving?

When it comes to losing weight don’t rely on your will power. Will power is a limited resource, and it’s easily eroded by stress, fatigue, anxiety, happiness, or pretty much any emotion or situation. It wavers when someone offers you a piece of chocolate, and admits defeat at the smell of fresh baked pie.

Making use of effective skin care products can help individuals improve their looks. Aside from that, individuals can also be sure that their needs are catered to properly, giving them better opportunities to improve their lifestyle.
