Does Tryptophan in Turkey
Really Make You Sleepy?
Dr. Berg talks about what
really makes your sleepy after a Thanksgiving meal. He says "I
always get this question, so I created a very short video to show you
the "other" reasons for sleepiness after that Thanksgiving
meal."

Ban Artificial Sweeteners from your Diet
No artificial sweeteners does not include Stevia
which is a sweet herb, but you should know about what is
sweetening your beverages and food.

Butter
or Margarine. Which is Better
Use butter in your holiday recipes rather than margarine
Here's the reason why. Organic butter is in no way harmful to
your body. In fact, it is one of the best sources of Vitamin A and
is just as important for your immune system as Vitamin C. Butter
also contains lecithin, which is the antagonist for cholesterol.
Lecithin helps dissolve cholesterol so by avoiding butter you
avoid the antidote (Lecithin), the very thing that will keep your
cholesterol in a normal range.
Margarine, on the other hand, is made from cheap corn, cottonseed
and soy oils. The oils are heated to very high temperatures, which
destroy any nutritional value and the oils are also hydrogenated
(added hydrogens to make a liquid into a solid). What is left is a
gray colored, artificial plastic, which doesn't smell good and
then it has to be bleached to remove color and smell. Lastly, food
coloring and artificial flavoring are added.
Contrary to popular advertising, butter is the healthy choice so
use it in your recipes.
