Clean bathroom fixtures and a tidy kitchen are not the only way to gauge a home’s health index. As a teen I spent a great deal of time around a friend’s home that onlookers would have sworn had a revolving front door. Set in a college town, that little house thrummed with the activity of older siblings coming and going, career parents on the run and a bevy of student boarders from all over the world calling it home. There was rarely a bare square inch of counter space in the kitchen for all the dishes that constantly needed washing, the laundry machines were never still and there was the subtle but continuous jockeying for an available bathroom.
They had a professional cleaning lady of sorts who gave the place little more than a lick and a promise once a week. You could not tell much more than six hours later if she had been there or not. The amazing thing I now recall from the years that I observed and participated in that milling microcosm, is that there was never a sick person among us, never more than a mild dose of the sniffles. Above the nearly always full kitchen sink, there hung a framed motto: “Our home is clean enough to be healthy and dirty enough to be happy.”
There is more and more scientific evidence that points to a truth that lies beneath that motto. A casual observer of many American broom closets today would note the labels on multiple cleansers are splashed with the word “antibacterial”. In bathrooms, it would be hard to miss the array of soaps, shampoos and other hygiene products on vanities and in showers with the same antibacterial designation. It would not be in the least bit unusual to discover a stash of disposable masks or latex gloves as part of a medicine chest’s menagerie. Our culture has been inundated with anti-germ marketing and consumers have embraced the notion of wiping those dastardly culprits out. However such eagerness, according to the hygiene hypothesis, can backfire on humans as we eradicate too much.
The hygiene hypothesis proposes that the lack of exposure during early childhood to certain infectious microorganisms can actually compromise an individual’s immune system. This thinking is not without its critics but it has more than enough plausibility in the science community to warrant some very serious study. In-utero, a baby is supplied with the mother’s antibodies. When born, the baby must develop an independent system of antibodies through encountering bacterial modules which trigger signals that in turn “educate” the child’s immune system. The hygiene hypothesis contends that the developed world is increasingly depriving developing immune systems of important bacterial and viral exposure.
Despite a recent spike in the sale of latex gloves and disposable masks with the media’s attention on H1N1 developments, there is a small grassroots movement among parents across the country determined to get their kids exposed to some ‘healthy dirt’. They scour the grocery shelves for soaps that don’t have the antibacterial label and rely on old fashioned lathering for adequate clean up. This still is a reasonable way to reduce bacteria count to most humans’ coping levels and remains an uncomplicated truth about our primary line of defense against infection.
Ironically, locating a soap in the grocery or drug store that does not have an antibacterial label is not such an easy task anymore, but it is very likely worth the search. The axiom “clean enough to be healthy, dirty enough to be happy” is something we should keep in mind the next time we ponder which cleansing products to buy.

So you’ve been eating up on the junk food lately, have you? Perhaps you haven’t been able to take off those extra pounds you put on for Christmas? Well, you aren’t alone. Around 25% of all men are on a diet at any given time, and those numbers are probably higher for women. No less than 40 billion dollars is spent on diet plans to get rid of tummy fat, and other diet products, each year. As I said, you are not alone. What you might be if you diet the right way is one of the very few that actually get the results they want, and are able to maintain those results over time.
Actually, the word diet should be excluded from the “lose weight” dictionary. Dieting for a specific period of time and losing a lot of weight is very seldom a workable prospect for the amateur. Yes, athletes do it all the time, but they often get the help of nutritionists, not to forget the fact that athletes often are know for their strength of will.
No, what we normal people need to do to lose weight, and keep it off, is to change our lifestyle. Junk food simply must take a back seat to healthy food, like lean meat, vegetable, and fruit. It simply doesn’t make sense to go on a diet for 4 weeks without changing what you eat beforehand. When you quit your diet, guess what happens? You start to eat the same old unhealthy, calorie-bombs that you ate before you began the diet!
What you need to do first is figure out how many calories you burn each day by just being alive (BMR) + physical activity, and then adopting a diet that has the required calories to keep you at maintenance levels. Remember, you only lose weight if you eat fewer calories than you expend. Do this by eating healthy foods, and keep doing this for 2-3 weeks. When the 3 weeks are up, adjust your calorie consumption downwards so that you get a calorie deficit. When you do it this way you it will be a lot easier to keep the tummy fat off when your diet is over, because you are used to eating the right types of food.

All humans have experience with feeling anxiety. This feeling can be triggered by big events such as job interviews or a wedding to small events such as an exam or blind date. No matter the cause, everyone at some point has experienced nervousness or anxiety.
Normal anxiety is actually beneficial. It motivates a person to take action (as in studying for that upcoming exam to calm worries of failure) and makes a person cautious and less reckless. However, normal anxiety comes and goes without affecting a persons life significantly. For about 19 million Americans with an anxiety disorder, it is quite a different story.
When Does Anxiety Become a Problem?
In someone with abnormally high levels of anxiety, feelings of dread, worry and fear become part of their everyday lives. These feelings can become more intense and irrational triggered for no reason at all or by some small insignificant event. For these people, anxiety negatively impacts their work or school life, family life as well as their personal habits.
To better discern between normal and chronic anxiety, consider a situation in which two different people are waiting upon a friend to arrive at a restaurant. The friend is half an hour late. A person without an anxiety disorder may assume that his or her friend became stuck in traffic and will arrive as soon as they can. However, for a person with chronic anxiety, simple worry about a friend quickly becomes serious and irrational:
Oh, no. Something happened to my friend. Has she been in a car accident? Should I call the police? Oh, how will her family react to her being in a car accident? Will the injuries be serious?
These are just a few examples f the thoughts that may run through an anxiety suffers mind. These thoughts will be continuous and become more intense even after the friend has arrived.
What Causes Anxiety?
Anxiety is a serious disorder that can cripple someone with constant worrisome thoughts. While there are several different types of anxiety, a person is generally diagnosed with an anxiety disorder after having intense feelings of fear, panic or uneasiness for six months or longer.
The cause of anxiety disorder is part of a great debate; however researchers do agree that a genetic predisposition to the disorder is a common link. Symptoms of anxiety usually begin to manifest in childhood and adolescence although adult onset is not uncommon. Furthermore, women are twice as likely to experience anxiety disorders than men and all ethnic groups are affected equally.
Many mental disorders are believed to be caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain. The same is true for anxiety. Serotonin and GABA are chemicals of great interest to researchers trying to better understand anxiety. However, researchers also believe that outside influences play a major role as well. Factors such as job loss, death in the family or living in a stressful environment can all bring on different levels of anxiety.
Treatment
Due to the physiological nature of anxiety, it can not yet be cured.
Anxiety can be managed however with medications and behavioral therapy. Additional methods for managing this disorder also include lifestyle changes including diet and exercise. The first and most important step in managing anxiety is to recognize that a problem exists.
A person who seeks treatment for anxiety has a great chance of living a life that is more normal and fulfilling.
