He was describing Michael Phelps' relaxed swimming style as he raced toward his 10th career gold medal. The statement got my attention. First our stress shows in our faces and then it creeps throughout our bodies. The statement reminded me of the many stress management workshops I have given over the years. I have studied stress, experienced too much of it, and wished the world was distress free. What I know is that stress is truly a killer when it gets out of hand. Yes, we see stress on people's faces. Just walk any mall and you will see how stressed we are. If it is on the face, we know it is everywhere in the body. It is an ancient response we call flight or fight. But you know what? Most of our stress begins right between the ears. Maybe that is why it shows up on the face first.

Heart Attack Linked to Bad Cholesterol?

High cholesterol can be defined as an excessive amount of saturated fat (fats from animals, dairy and also manufactured by the human body) present in your blood.

clipped from yourheartyourlife.com Studies have shown that indeed, high levels of cholesterol lead to a heart disease. On a safe level, cholesterol is important for organs such as liver to function properly. It is a fat-like substance which also helps to maintain the cellular structures on the body and is highly capable of transmitting the nerve impulses. It is vital to remember there cholesterol is only useful when there is an exact level of it and too much, causes problems. Lipoproteins - a medical term for tiny clumps of fat and protein- travels around the body. There are two kinds of Lipoproteins, HDL (the good cholesterol) and LDL (the bad cholesterol). The LDL is the one that carries cholesterol where it is needed, and the HDL is the one that carries leftover cholesterol back to the liver. Thus shows that cholesterol and heart disease are linked together. To prevent all of this, people are advised to lower their cholesterol level. This is easily done by taking up a healthy diet and maintains a healthy weight.
