So Many Factors Can Trigger Your Caffeine Headaches — Heres the Lowdown

For me, the smell of freshly brewed coffee is the equivalent of a comforting, warm hug. Those first few sips hardly disappoint either, as I'm instantly energized to take on the day. But, all good things come to an end after too many caramel-infused cups leave me with a headache.

That's just one example of how complicated my relationship with caffeine can be — and I know I'm not alone in feeling this love-hate connection.

“Genetically, we all metabolize caffeine differently. Although caffeine can help to reduce headaches (by restricting inflammation!), it can also bring one on by its impact of narrowing blood vessels in the brain,” Kristin Kirkpatrick, MS, RDN, a Clear Probiotics scientific advisor and the president of KAK Consulting, says.

The amount of sleep you're getting, your diet, if you're prone to migraines, and your water intake directly influences your caffeine-headache vulnerability, she adds. That's why talking to a doctor about your lifestyl..

This No-Equipment Workout Will Ignite Parts of Your Body You Didn’t Know Existed

There's so much to love about a strong midsection — most importantly, it's essential for a healthy body. Fact: strengthening the core helps improve posture, prevent everyday injury, and combats chronic back pain, which is all too common if you sit at a desk all day. This is exactly why no workout with Austin Lopez, BS, CSCS, and trainer at DIAKADI is complete without a dedicated section of core work. During a recent session with Austin, he tortured treated me to the following bodyweight circuit, which he tacked on after an already intense section of leg and shoulder work. It was tough, I sweated like a crazy person, but damn if I didn't feel every muscle in my core working.

Austin recommends adding this circuit toward the end of any — and all — of your workouts since the body will be warmed up and ready for the challenge. Keep in mind that this isn't a beginner workout, “If you feel your back or hip flexors too much while doing thRead More – Source

Not Feeling Grateful Right Now? Keep a Gratitude Journal Anyway — Here’s Why

The more I heard about practicing gratitude, the more I thought, “that definitely isn't for me.” It's not that I don't think it works; I've heard enough about the science-backed mental health benefits to accept that part. It's more that, whenever I'm depressed, anxious, or stressed (which has been pretty often lately, let's be real), the last thing I want to do is sit down and calmly list out all of the things I feel grateful for. If anything, it felt like forcing myself to feel thankful would just make me more stressed and upset.

But according to Nancy Irwin, PsyD, a clinical psychologist in Los Angeles, it's when you're feeling the least grateful that a gratitude practice becomes essential. “That is the time it works best,” she told POPSUGAR. “No matter how bad your day or life sucks at the moment, there is always, always something to be grateful for.” Your vision, your ability to move, your family, your home: it may feel simple of surfac..

Jacob Elordi and Kaia Gerber have been growing closer in recent weeks, and as a result, they have sparked some major dating rumors. The 23-year-old Euphoria actor and 19-year-old model first raised eyebrows earlier this month when they were spotted grabbing dinner in Malibu, CA, and eventually took their blossoming romance to the East Coast. In addition to attending workout classes together in NYC, they were also spotted holding hands during a leisurely stroll. So, are the two officially an item? Not exactly.

While E!

A separate source added, “Kaia is the one that doesn't want to be in an exclusive relationship right now. She has a lot of projects on her plate and w..
