3. StressWhile experts don’t know exactly why, stress is a common psoriasis trigger. Research suggests that psychological stress plays a regulatory role in the immune system, increasing inflammation in the body and affecting the skin barrier.[7]A stressful trigger could come in the form of a move, a breakup, or the loss of a job.

As a result, stress and psoriasis symptoms can fuel each other: Psoriasis is a chronic disease that causes stress, and stress makes psoriasis worse.[7]You can help reduce stress by learning stress management techniques, such as meditation or yoga, and…
Everyone farts—it’s a biological fact. But whether you interpret that odorous puff of air as a harmless (even funny) fact of life or a gross human indecency turns out to be surprisingly telling—and apparently, controversial enough to spark a passionate Internet debate: Were you raised in a fart-pride household, or a fart-shame one? In other words: Do you feel perfectly comfortable letting one slip in front of your family, or does the thought sound rude, awkward, or just plain disgusting?Our reactions to something as universal as passing gas are influenced by a variety of different factors. “Sometimes, it’s as simple…
The reason? Estrogen affects neurotransmitters in the brain that impact memory, mood, and sleep, so fluctuating levels can result in cognitive changes. Hormonal shifts may also alter how brain cells are produced and connect with other cells and may lower the brain’s main fuel source, glucose. These changes can manifest as forgetfulness, confusion, or difficulty concentrating. If you tend to get hot flashes, your brain fog may also be worse, research suggests, thanks to the way the uncomfortable symptoms disrupt sleep and affect quality of life and mood.2. Sleep problemsSpeaking of sleep: About half of perimenopausal women say they struggle…

While we all know scrolling on social media isn’t exactly the best habit, I have to admit that I love flipping through celebrity posts on Instagram. After all, some of my favorite celebrities are also chefs. I love their social media content because they often share recipes and cooking tips, which means I learn a lot and get to soak up the inside knowledge they post on their accounts. Sometimes, though, their information comes without enough…
The day the police were called to my house to take my sister and me away, our family of four sat down to dinner as usual, 6 p.m. on the dot. That morning, as I ate a bowl of Life cereal (it was the 1970s after all), I watched my 40-year-old mom pull out the Crock-Pot, tie an apron around her slim waist, and get to work on her red sauce. Mom’s sauce always started the same way: browning the beef. As it crackled and popped, she used a worn-out wooden spoon to break up the meat, push it around…

Chefs agree Kirkland almond butter offers top quality at a budget-friendly price.Look for almond butter with just almonds—no sugar or added oils for best flavor.Freshly ground almond butter tastes best, but Kirkland is the top packaged choice. Whenever I’m grocery shopping and comparing two items, I hear my grandmother’s voice in my head: “The generic is the same,” she would say. “Get the one that costs less!” And while in so many instances I agree, I have noticed that sometimes the generic doesn’t come close to some big brands (looking at you, store-brand mayo). When it comes to almond butter, though,…
“Vision correction procedures can temporarily disrupt corneal nerves that play a key role in signaling tear production,” explains Ksenia Goman, MD, ophthalmologist at Northwell’s Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital. “In the short term, this often leads to irritation, burning, or fluctuating vision.” It’s also super common, with 95% of people experiencing dry eye right after refractive surgery and 60% of people having symptoms one month later.
