Quotes of the Day

Time and time again anxiety usually emerges as the number one cause of insomnia. Many people worry that if they "don't get to sleep sooner" their productivity will suffer at work or they'll feel exceedingly bad during the day. Their anxiety about the consequences of not sleeping ratchets up to fear, and before long, they're in such a state of vigilance that they're as far from sleep as it's possible to be. But bad sleep is much more dangerous in your mind than it's in real life. Just because you got little to no sleep the night before doesn't mean you can't handle the next day. I'm not saying your day will be chocolates and roses. I just don't think you'll end up being truly dysfunctional. [2017] - W. Chris Winter

I do not recommend that most people consume supplements containing vitamin A, high-dose (200 IU or greater) isolated vitamin E, isolated beta-carotene, folic acid, or copper, as there are risks associated with excess consumption of these nutrients. When my patients ask what multivitamin they should use, I tell them I'd prefer they take a high-quality multi that doesn't contain vitamin A or plain beta-carotene. [2011] - Joel Fuhrman
