One of the simplest but most effective ways to help your recovery is by paying close attention to what you eat. The foods you choose can either boost your body’s natural healing process or, if you’re not careful, cause more swelling, bruising, and even delay…
I’ve been a green tea drinker for almost 20 years, and over that time I’ve learned something important — Japanese and Chinese green teas are not the same.

In this guide, we’ll look at what sets them apart, which one might be better…
When people talk about omega-3 fatty acids, the spotlight usually shines on EPA and DHA. They’re the ones most fish oil supplements highlight, and they’re well-known for supporting heart and brain health.
