Healthy Talk Get Inspired Fish: It’s good for your brain You may already know that fish is good for your heart. But now there’s evidence that it is also good for your mental health. That’s because the brain is largely made of fat and water, and it craves polyunsaturated fats, especially the much heralded omega-3 fatty acids found in fish. That may explain why people who have the highest fish consumption, like those who live in Japan and Finland, have lower rates of depression. —Adapted from the UC Berkeley Wellness Letter Get the most from cardio machines Outstanding Client Of The Month ! Bob and Diane MacDonald These new clients are just getting to know us. We did some Upholstery Cleaning and they loved it so much, they wanted to get some work done for their daughter as well. For finding us and wanting to share your great experience, you are our Client of the Month, THANK YOU! Most health experts say that a good workout should have an intensive cardiovascular component. That’s why such gym equipment like treadmills and stationary cycles are so popular. Here are a few tips on making the most of your time on the machines: 1. Choose equipment that provides a weight-bearing exercise. You get both a cardio workout as well as the necessary effort that helps keep your bones healthy. The best options are treadmills, elliptical trainers, and stair climbers. 2. Look for heart rate technology. Some cardio equipment allows you to monitor your heart rate so you know how hard you are working (or need to work) in order to get maximum benefit. 3. Use the programs to help you reach health goals. Check out the different programs that are preset on many machines. They’re helpful in getting you in shape for whatever goal you may have, be it losing weight or training for a hill run. —Adapted from Health & Fitness Every month I choose a very special Client Of The Month.
