“Regular” Diets Focus on Calories and Exercise
The ‘regular’ way to lose weight over a long period of time is to reduce the number of calories you take in and increase the number of calories you use as fuel in your daily activity. Science has discovered that this actually doesn’t work as well as we would like it to, and that is because calorie counting does not address cravings nor does it offer guidance on what type of food to eat for long-term weight loss. Additional science has taught us that carbohydrates and sugar foods are what need to be removed from our diet, or greatly reduced from our diet, for long-term weight loss.
As someone who suffers from insomnia, I am always on the lookout for natural ways to help (meaning without drugs). The Luna Weighted Blanket aims to utilize “Deep Pressure Touch Stimulation” (DTPS) to release serotonin and melatonin, reduce movement while asleep, and provide an overall calming effect to help achieve a deeper and better night’s sleep. The pressure of the blanket gives the feeling of being hugged or swaddled and a sense of warmth and safety.
With stress being responsible for 80% of chronic diseases, it’s important to find ways to eliminate or relieve that stress. It inhibits our daily functioning by weakening focus, causing poor sleep, and so much more.
