Hi, I'm Lisa Davis. So glad you are listening to Health Power. You can see some clips from the shows if you'd like, if you go to my Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram at lisa.davis.mph. All right, today we're talking about an article from Naturally Savvy, how pink noise boosts memory and improves sleep. Now, I didn't even know there was such thing as pink noise until I came across this article. I have a white noise machine and that helps me tremendously, but let's jump in and find out what this pink noise is all about. So, changes in sleep patterns occur as we get older. with the most common ones being more trouble staying asleep and a harder time falling asleep. And according to the National Sleep Foundation, these are a normal part of the aging process. But now researchers say they may have a solution to these problems and it may even boost your memory as well, which is pink noise. So I mentioned the white noise machines, which according to noise sound engineer, Stephane Pigeon, is not what most of us typically think of when we hear the term comforting sounds. that help us block out the surrounding environment. Now, Pajone explains white noise as the following. A true white noise deals in the second fundamental component of the sound wave, the frequency. Frequency is how fast the waveform is vibrating per second. That's pretty technical. It's easier to understand if you associate it with a single note. Take the middle C note on a keyboard. That note has a frequency of about 261.1 hertz. To make white noise, a sound engineer combines an equal amount of energy of every frequency a human can hear. Imagine it like hundreds of musicians playing every single note you can hear at once at the same volume. That's white noise. Wow, I didn't realize it was really interesting. Okay, so what's pink noise? So pink noise is a soothing, gentle sound composed of octaves possessing equal energy. It is essentially the background noise we are used to hearing every day and don't even notice. Researchers at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois discovered that if they synced pink noise to the brainwaves of older men and women while they slept, the subjects experienced better quality of deep sleep as well as an improvement in memory. That's so interesting. Now it's been shown in numerous studies over the years, sleep is critical for converting short-term memories into long-term memories. The type of sleep that is necessary for this conversation is deep sleep, AKA, Lisa Davis (02:23.29) slow wave sleep or non dream state sleep, which is part of the non rapid eye movement sleep cycle. And as we get older, the quality of deep sleep declines, which in turn can have a significant impact on memory as well as sleep quality. Deep sleep is also important because it's a stage when the body cells increase production and there's a reduction, the breakdown of proteins. Thus, this is a time of tissue repair, giving meaning to the term beauty sleep. Other benefits of deep sleep are a slowing of activity in the areas of the brain involved with emotion, social engagement, and decision-making, which suggests deep sleep helps people maintain an emotional balance. So let's talk about how scientists use pink noise. So in previous studies in young adults, they found a link between acoustic sound stimulation of deep sleep brain activity and an improvement of memory. Now these findings prompted Dr. Phyllis Zee a professor of neurology at the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern and her colleagues to try acoustic simulation in a group of older adults and see how it affected sleep and memory. So if you want all of the details of the study, you can see the show notes. I'll just tell you briefly that the study group consisted of 13 men and women ages 60 to 84, who each were subjected to one night of acoustic stimulation involving pink noise synced to the participants' brave waves. and one night of sham placebo stimulation. So I'm gonna guess what...

So if you want to check me out, check out my guests, see what we're doing beyond just listening to us, that is an option for you. As well as I have a YouTube page now, if you look up Lisa Davis MPH. All right, today we're going to be talking about an article from NaturallySavvy .com. There's a new nut in town, Peely Nuts. When I hear there's a new nut in town, I think of that song by the Eagles. There's a new kid in town. Hi, everybody's talking. So there's a new nut in town, Peely or Piley. I don't know. P -I -L -I Nuts. Let's jump into this dense superfood and find out about it. Okay. So it is also known as Canary and it is the product of a tropical evergreen tree. The tear shaped nuts are about 1 .6 to 2 .8 inches long and each end of the nut is pointed, one being less pointy than the other. That's really interesting. So each kernel is composed of approximately 8 % carbohydrate, 11 .5 to 13. % protein and 70 % fat. Now, if you listen to the show, you know, I'm a big fan of healthy fats. Peeling nut trees are found throughout Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines. And the nuts are harvested from natural strands of the trees in the mountains. These nuts are popular for their taste and nutrition as well as their oil, which can be used for making soaps and cosmetics. That sounds fantastic. So what do the nuts taste like? Raw peely nuts are said to taste similar to sunflower seeds, while others say they're closer to macadamia nuts or even a combination of all types of nuts together. When you roast them, they have a chewy exterior and a buttery interior. Okay, that really sounds delicious. So what are some of the health benefits? All right, they're high in nutrition. They are reportedly a complete protein, which means they contain all the essential amino acids you need. That's incredible. They are high in calories, coming in at 650 calories per cup. However, eating just a few of these nutrient -dense nuts slowly will satisfy your hunger and give you a nutritional boost as well. In fact, peeling nuts contain the most magnesium of all nuts. Lisa Davis (02:19.086) A single serving completes your daily dose of copper and manganese as well. That's pretty cool. Ooh, anti -inflammatory properties. There's a lot of focus on the impact of inflammation on health today. We talk a lot about it here on Health Power. And these nuts are up to the challenge. Peeles contain many antioxidant compounds, including vitamin E to fight inflammation at all levels in the body. They can lower cholesterol. Oh, that's so interesting. So they have omega -3 fatty acids, which are super important. They help our skin, they help our hair, but they also help balance cholesterol levels, especially lowering bad cholesterol, LDL. They aid in anti -aging. Now I don't like the word anti -aging. I would just say they help in aging. So the botanical antioxidants in peeling this, are your friends when it comes to aging powers and helping you stay looking the way you'd like as well? Well, you know, that's a whole nother conversation. Including these KC morsels in your diet can help fight free radicals and promote. wrinkles and other signs of aging. Oh, that promote wrinkles. Promote better sleep. Magnesium is a mineral known for its ability to support sleep and the release of relaxing hormones. I gotta get my hand on these because I am sensitive to most nuts. So I need to, or actually just not all nuts, not seeds, but I don't like seeds as much, but I'm gonna give this a try because if this tastes anything like a macadamia nut, I am on board. Wow, there is so much these nuts do. They support your bone health. Your bones need more calcium to stay strong and peeling nuts provide several of those bone supporting nutrients, calcium, magnesium,...

TRANSCRIPT: Hi, I'm Lisa Davis. So glad you're listening to Health Power. It's been a little while since I've done a health quickie, so I'm going to bring them back. Today we're going to start talking about. Hi, I'm Lisa Davis. So glad you're listening to Health Power. Today I'm going to do a naturally savvy health quickie where I talk about an article from www.naturallysavvy.com So today I'm talking about eight reasons to start your day with lemon water. Now this is something that I've been thinking about doing for a long time and I haven't, so I'm really hoping that this will get me over the edge to do it. So the first thing it does is it gives you an energy boost. So if you rely on caffeine to give you that boost in the morning, that can have some long -term consequences, including taking a toll on your adrenal glands, which by the way are already overworked thanks to stress, late nights, too many stimulates. Instead, lemon water oxygenates and energizes the body. It's a great jumpstart to your day. Now, the second reason is one of the ones that I've been wanting to do it is that it promotes good digestion. Now, according to Dr. John Maston -Endy, lemon, excuse me, lemon water stimulates the stomach to increase its production of digestive juices and improves peristalsis, the muscular contractions that push food through the entire digestive system. Improved digestion, what does that mean? Better nutrient absorption, which we all want, and less bloating, which I definitely want. Number three, it stimulates elimination. Elimination, a simple glass of lemon water stimulates the liver's production of bile. This combined with improved peristalsis, which I just mentioned, of the entire digestive system is a more natural method of waste removal. So lemon water acts as a mild diuretic. increasing the frequency of urination and gently flushing out toxins from the urinary tract. The result, better waste and waist W -A -I -S -T management. Number four, it gives your immune system a boost. Well, everybody wants that. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice gives you a shot of the antioxidant vitamin C, about 44 .5 milligrams per lemon. But more importantly, it helps the body maintain a balanced pH Even though lemon tastes acidic, inside the body it is alkaline. And I'm sure you've all heard about how important it is to be alkaline. Number five, it helps detox the liver with more than 500 functions. The liver is a very busy organ. It is the most important role, excuse me, it's most important role is to filter the blood of waste products, drugs, pesticides, and other poisons. So lemon juice is really powerful and it helps to stimulate bioproduction like we talked about. Number six, it helps you lose weight. The liver is an important fat burning organ. It regulates fat metabolism, breaking down fats and shipping them out via the large intestine. So just keep that in mind as well, but there's a lot of other factors that are important. Better skin. Number seven, the detoxifying action of drinking lemon water will release impurities through every exit point or detoxification channel, including the skin. Now you might have a mild amount of acne at first while stuff's getting cleaned out, but soon you will be replaced with a healthy glow. I know I'm touching my face like I have a healthy glow, but I do, but I don't have the lemon water going yet, but I will. Number eight, hydration. Lemon water, excuse me, lemon makes water taste better. And if it tastes better, you're going to drink more. So that's a really good thing. So the bottom line, there's a lot of good reasons to start your day with lemon water. Will you be picking up this habit? Yes, I will. I hope you do as well for whatever reasons work for you, reason or reasons, but keep coming back to Health Power five days a week. I'm back to doing my health quickies. This is really quick. This is gonna be under four minutes. Who doesn't have time for that? Anyway, everybody keep coming back....
