Stress can also affect you physically

Leave a comment

We’ve all heard the claim that constant stress can affect your 2physical well-being in addition to your mental health.

A recent New York Times article discussed the science behind how elevated levels of cortisol (aka “the stress hormone”) lead to the body developing a resistance, which can then make you more susceptible to illness.

This is why Dr. Yagoda believes it is important to educate her patients on lifestyle changes, including stress management, for whole-body wellness.

Nuts could be the problem…

Leave a comment

If you think you may have strep throat, recurrent acute bacterial tonsillitis, or even acid reflux, ask yourself this: do you eat a lot of nuts?

If so, you could actually have fever blisters, which are caused by a type of virus. Nuts contain high levels of arginine, and if you eat too many of them, the levels of arginine in your body can surpass the lysine levels. And when these amino acids are out of balance, it can make you more susceptible to viral infections.

If this is the case, you should try to cut out nuts from your diet and see if it improves your condition.

Leave a comment

Sun protection is one of the most important parts of anti-aging 10skincare. Every morning before work you should apply sunscreen to your face, neck, décolletage, and any other exposed body part.

And make sure to protect your children from sun damage too!

Long sleeves and pants and a wide brimmed hat are perfect for soft and susceptible baby skin.

For sunblock, Dr. Yagoda recommends EltaMD, a physical sunblock containing zinc, which is the only ingredient that’s safe for infants under 6 months old.
