Consuming a diet rich in magnesium could help minimize symptoms and keep you feeling your best. There are six “macro-minerals” that the human body needs in large amounts to function normally, and magnesium is one of them.

Most of us know that exercise is good for your heart, lungs, muscle, bones and joints. However, did you know that physical exercise is one of the best things you can do to stimulate your brain and get focused? Reading, word games, math problems and creativity through art all stimulate your brain in different ways and in different areas.
