Dr. Oz and DocsTV Weigh In on Healthy Foods for Hang-Overs, Better Sex, and Weight Management
Today and on many other episodes of Dr. Oz and theDoctorsTV there are segments about specific foods and nutrients which you can use to get rid of hang-overs, enjoy better sex, and find your way to your ideal weight.
We absolutely LOVE to watch doctors get their audiences to learn about whole foods and natural foods which are known to take care of these things, instead of resorting to drugs with side-effects and questionable efficacy.
The vegetable juice drink with asparagus that helps with Hang-Overs due to the over-consumption of alcohol will help and it tastes OK. I would eat a few additional sprigs of asparagus and sprinkle them with gomasio for better results. A serving of whole grains like barley or amaranth or quinoa will also deliver B Complex vitamins to the system which uses them to metabolize the carbohydrates in beer, wine, and other alcoholic beverages.
A good two servings of Vital 18 will also do the trick and if you drink this before you pass out or fall asleep after partying; then it is quite likely that you won’t wake up with that residual headache we fondly call a hang-over. If you regularly take a multi-vitamin and mineral supplement; then taking one or two tablets or sprays before you drink will help your system immensely.
If you drink, choose Red Wine to give your body the benefits that are known to come from consuming the grape. Buy the organic Red Wines that do not have added sulfites. Eat some goat cheese, some olives, and some artisan bread with your Red Wine to prevent the typical symptoms of discomfort to a large degree. Italians regularly drink red wine with their meals and you don’t need to be a stranger to this tradition.
Know your body! If you can manage one alcoholic drink without suffering any hang-over the next day…stick to that single drink. If you can handle two or three and support your body with the nutrients and foods described earlier; then you should wake up feeling alright. Pace yourself and be good to your body while still having fun…
There are several Essential Oils that will also alleviate a headache and body aches from a hang-over. Apply a few drops to your temples and behind your ears and at the base of your neck, in addition to your wrists. Diffuse the oils in your bedroom to work while you sleep and awaken to a more comfortable sensation in your body.
When it comes to better sex, the doctors and the audiences never fail to be alert and inquisitive! People seem to want to know more about this and it is important not to treat these foods as drugs for the addicted. Use these foods to enhance your sexual prowess and performance and degree of interest in a more natural way which comes from within you, instead of awkward stimulation that is best exemplified by the men’s reliance upon Viagra or other drugs to get erections.
Horny Goat Weed and other stimulants are for those who are desperate for short-term success. They are not the ideal lasting long-term solution for better sex. Better sex results from general well-being and health. There are foods that are well-known for this purpose. Adaptogenic Herbs also play an important role in longevity which includes sexuality into your elder years.
Ginsengs, fo ti, gotu kola, and other herbs originating from Asia are commonly used to strengthen the chi and the yang energy for the men. Women benefit as well and build their blood using herbs like rehemannia root and several others that are usually included in an herbal formulation together offering a synergistic value as a group.
You can find many roots and herbs at Mountain Rose Herbs which will provide you with bio-active materials which are reasonably priced in the market.
Celery, cabbage, and other foods (even spicy ones) that the doctors identified as being rich in nutrients which improve your sexual performance can be included in your healthy diet. Don’t underestimate the power of flaxseed, chocolate, oysters, apricots, and other foods which are rich in nutrients that the reproductive and endocrine systems utilize for their optimal function. We feel that the application of Essential Oils will be more useful in the moment to induce sensual feelings and enhance tactile and emotional communication with your partner.
