A Healthy Conversation Chill Out...Naturally By Donna & John Krech 
Hey there! Welcome to another Healthy Conversation.
So, let's review just a little bit; we've been talking over the last several weeks about how needing sleep is vital. Not just for feeling good, we know that, but it's vital for keeping your weight in check, keeping your emotions in check, just keeping your health good, period.
We've talked about how learning to relax, setting the stage for getting good sleep when you go to bed, we talked about that. We've talked about what to eat, what not to eat, how to exercise, how to have a positive mental outlook, because that allows you to relax.
Last week we were talking about the different levels of cortisol and how it can really affect you. When your levels hit a certain point it really throws everything out of balance and that is when all kinds of health problem start occurring.

Weight Loss Hint--Get Rid Of Fat With This Oil
Nothing helps weight loss more than having adequate levels of protein.
And you can't find a better source of protein than fatty, wild-caught fish like salmon.
Besides the fact that it is a great source of protein, fatty fish also contains fat-busting omega-3 fatty acids, which some studies suggest, may help you burn extra fat.
You may be asking, "how?"
Some studies suggest that omega-3 fatty acids, like the kind found in fish, nuts, and krill oil, may stimulate adiponectin secretion but slowing down the inflammation of your fat cells.
According to a new study, omega-3 fatty acids may play a large role in managing FAT loss and reducing your risk for metabolic syndrome.
Although more research is needed in this area, it has been shown by numerous studies, on both humans and animals, that omega-3 fatty acids may reduce inflammation, and alter fat metabolism in your cells.
The researchers show that there are many processes that lead to inflammation of your adipose tissue.

Nutrition Hint--How Apples Help You Lose Weight
Apples are low in calories and fat, low in sodium, and contain vitamins and minerals as well as fiber. These can all help you to lose weight in different ways. The fiber helps you feel full longer because it expands in your stomach so it takes less food to satisfy your hunger. Apples are a low-sodium food that can be a good addition to a healthy diet. Keeping your sodium low will help prevent excess water weight, or retention. And, the vitamins benefit you by increasing health and vitality. Of course, being active helps burn extra calories to speed up weight loss.
Enjoying a fiber-packed apple, especially before a meal, is a good way to curb your appetite. It's also a great low-fat snack when you're on the run.

Metabolism Retraining Hint--Ramp Up Your Weight Loss By Doing This
If you're not strength training, start now. And if you are, ramp it up a notch. Muscle is your greatest ally in breaking a plateau. Unfortunately many women train with weights too light to produce the metabolic boost they need. Don't be afraid of heavier weights. They should be heavy enough that you can only do between 8 and 12 reps.

Recipe of the Week--Spaghetti Squash 'n Shrimp Arrabbiata
Spaghetti Squash 'n Shrimp Arrabbiata 
Ingredients:
1 spaghetti squash (about 4 1/2 lb.)
1 cup chopped onion
2 tsp. chopped garlic
1 tsp. red pepper flakes, or more to taste
One 28-oz. can crushed tomatoes (about 3 cups)
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
12 oz. raw medium shrimp, peeled, tails removed, deveined
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 tsp. each lite salt and black pepper
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Microwave whole squash for 3 - 4 minutes, until soft enough to cut. Halve lengthwise; scoop out and discard seeds. Fill a large baking pan with 1/2 inch water and place squash halves in the pan, cut sides down. Bake until tender, about 40 minutes.
About 20 minutes before squash is done baking, bring a medium pot sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook and stir until onion has softened and slightly browned, about 5 minutes.
Add tomatoes and Italian seasoning to the pot. Cook and stir until hot, 1 - 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium low. Add shrimp and cook for about 5 minutes, until cooked through.
Remove pot from heat, stir in basil, and cover to keep warm.
Scrape out squash strands with a fork, and transfer to a strainer to drain excess moisture. Pat dry, if needed. Transfer to a large bowl and season with salt and black pepper.
Top each serving of squash (about 1 1/3 cups) with 1/4th of the saucy shrimp mixture (1 heaping cup). Dig in!
