Health Points

July 24, 2008

 

 

Totally not in keeping with my promise to self that I’ll try to have better sleeping habits, after all that talk about health and high blood pressure, clogged arteries, and EDTA chelation, I’m now still up at 2.30 am; eating a piece of apple I found in the refrigerator, which houses nothing else but that and a bottle of water; listening to Sara Bareilles; and thinking about the badminton game tomorrow. I’m also thinking about breakfast, which depending on what time I’ll wake up, will most probably be a cup of coffee and a bowl of oatmeal. I hate the taste of that. Seriously. But it’s so easy to prepare and the health benefits are well published, so I’m trying to substitute it for my usual fastfood breakfast. A friend and I have been talking about being hypochondriac, me regarding being hypertensive and she regarding being diabetic (and still another friend ran to a clinic yesterday out of fear of urinary tract infection) that eating well would seem to be the wisest thing to do. And yet when the three of us go to the office cafeteria and each order our sizzling plates of liempo, adobo, or porkchop, we’ll all agree that there’s no way we can stay away from all these fatty foods all at once. Moderation is the key, although sometimes that can also get hard. Well, wholegrain oats are supposed to flush out toxins and help unclog arteries, so I’m psyching myself about making it a regular part of my diet. Better start early before more drastic measures, such as EDTA oral chelation, become necessary.
