What Is the Difference Between Epilepsy and Seizures?

Epilepsy is among one of the many neurological conditions that most countries are putting up medical centers to handle. Seizures tend to occur when electrical impulses in the brain go beyond the normal rate. The impulses can even be spread to the muscles, which can cause the patient to convulse. When one is diagnosed with epilepsy, it is always a result of many seizure experiences. Most people described epilepsy generally as a result of certain injuries in the brain. There are many things that you probably did not know about seizure and epilepsy. Comprehensive details about these medical conditions are provided below.

Manitoba Harvest: Hemp Yeah Protein Powder Review

Back in December, we talked about Manitoba Harvest Hemp Yeah protein bars. Now, it is time to discuss their protein powder. You might not think that protein bars and powders for shakes have a lot in common, but these two are very similar. They both have robust and earthy flavors, but present some challenging textures for many. In short, their chocolate plant protein blend is incredibly thick and with larger serving sizes, it can be messy and hard to blend under normal circumstances.

Overall, it is a high-quality product, with a rich and earthy flavor, that would be ideal for someone who isn’t on a budget and is making their shakes in a larger blender at home.

Why Nutrition is Vital For Fitness

Many people think regular exercise is the crux of all fitness, but it isn’t the only dictator of physical prowess. There’s an increasing focus on nutrition throughout the health and fitness world, as nutritionists are only beginning to unravel the important benefits that different eating habits and ingredients can bring to the table. What people eat actually has more of an impact on overall health and fitness potential than exercise. It’s important for weight loss, most specific sustained fitness programs and attentiveness to many diseases and health conditions.

We’re Back!

We started this blog in August of 2012. It has been a real roller coaster ride ever since the beginning. I can’t remember the last time we went over a month without publishing an article. Sometimes, we don’t find the time to create our own work, but we maintain a steady stream of posts through partners and guests. That wasn’t the case this past month, but we’re glad to be back. Where did we go?

Keep Your Skin at Peak Performance with These Athlete-Approved Skincare Tips

An effective workout routine challenges your body to keep pushing for the next milestone. Whatever goals you have for your gym sessions, it’s important to prioritize.

Being an athlete exposes your skin to everything from sun and sweat to chlorine, wind, and heat. Put as much thought into caring for your skin as you do your body to avoid the visible signs of premature aging and other common skin concerns.   

You shouldn’t have to choose between a sculpted physique and healthy skin. Check out these simple tips for pre- and post-workout skincare to make sure your skin stays as strong as you are.

Welcoming July

Wow… what a year. I can’t believe it is already July. I seriously can’t remember anything quite like this during my lifetime. The last three or four months have been truly unique and there is really no way of telling where we’ll all go from here. Last month might have been the least active month in the history of the blog. We published three articles. Two were sponsored and one was a review of a newer restaurant here on the west bank of New Orleans. I’m not sure how everyone did last month, or for the first half of this year, but I’m personally going to focus on today and tomorrow. No matter what happened in the past, we have to push forward with strength and determination.
