(WHTM) — If you ever find yourself getting a migraine from staring at a screen for too long, you are not alone.

“For a lot of migraine sufferers or patients who have migraines in general, screen time plays a very important role in being a common trigger, among many other triggers that these patients are aware of,” Dr. Estemalik said.

Dr. Estemalik says part of the reason why is that many migraine sufferers have photosensitivity to light. So, the combination of staring at a bright screen, plus the overhead

An increasing amount of evidence suggests that a healthy lifestyle is linked to better thinking skills later in life. But few studies have looked at healthy lifestyle effects on memory in particular, and none have considered the effects on memory in people with a genetic risk for Alzheimer’s disease. Now a study from China offers insight. The study, published online Jan. 25, 2023, by BMJ, involved more than 29,000 people without dementia (average age 72). Participants initially underwent cognitive testing as well as genetic testing for genes known to raise risk for Alzheimer’s, and reported how well they stuck

Food for Thought: Committed or Interested?

Violin12/05/2023 51 Views

By Gina Cousineau

Weekly, I find myself asking my clients if they are truly “committed” or merely “interested” in reaching their goals.

It might sound a bit harsh, but the reality of this question comes when people don’t allow their supposed “intense” desire for weight loss to guide their commitment to the actions needed to achieve that goal.

Hopefully, after all these years of following along, you, my insightful readers, know that my “hunger” is for everyone to embrace a “healthy eating pattern” and, in return, this will allow them to achieve a “healthy weight” for this season

People who repeatedly suffer traumatic brain injuries (TBI) may be more apt to develop Alzheimer’s disease, new research shows.

TBI can result from direct hits to the head or from indirect sources such as shock waves from battlefield explosions.

Are hybrid workers really healthier? This CEO says it’s true

Violin10/05/2023 54 Views

“There’s actually a significant savings that companies are achieving by transitioning a percentage of their traditional workspace footprint away from a conventional lease over to either working from home or working closer to home or at a co-working location. That’s become a very significant savings.”

And with these co-working spaces, employers also ensure that workers remain engaged with their peers at work, says Berger.

“We value the opportunity to be alongside people, but companies are becoming more geographically distributed than ever before with their teams. So people are looking for a way to gather at a location, leave their homes,
