Fitoterápicos que ajudam emagrecer – Parte 3 – Curcumina e Açafrão da terra
Também chamados de Tuméricos o açafrão e a curcumina são excelente aliados para emagrecimento e outros benefícios à saúde, que fazem valer a pena incluí-los em nossa alimentação.
Um estudo realizado pelo Centro de Pesquisas de Nutrição Humana, da Universidade de Tufts, nos Estados Unidos, mostrou que a ingestão de curcumina (açafrão) mostrou esses resultados. O teste foi feito com dois grupos de ratos que passaram a ser alimentados por uma dieta rica em gorduras. Um recebeu a ração suplementada com curcumina e o outro não. Apesar de não afetar o apetite, os cientistas perceberam que os ratos alimentados com açafrão na dieta não ganharam tanto peso quanto os que não tiveram o suplemento. Também foi notado a diminuição dos níveis sanguíneos de colesterol e gordura no fígado dos ratos.
Conclusão: o tempero açafrão pode ter efeito anti-obesidade, sim!

Episode 97: Sebastian and Marcel
Sebastian and Marcel
Age: Sebastian 21, Marcel 20
Location: Palm Springs, California
Addiction: Heroin (black tar, smoked)
What’s memorable: So much! How awful and sick these kids look, how they take advantage of their parent’s kindness, the enabling in-denial sweetness of their father, selling drugs out of the house, the forgotten, ignored, caring older brother.
Note: Sebastian (on the right, above) died in April 2013. Link to memorial service video.
Official synopsis: Sebastian, 21, and his brother Marcel, 20, were soccer celebrities in their town at a very young age. Cool and rebellious, Sebastian hung out with older teammates and started doing marijuana, cocaine and meth. Then Marcel got strung out on cocaine, Xanax and OxyContin, and also sold drugs. Now their older brother is angry, their mother feels betrayed, and their father is ready to give up his wife, his oldest son, and his own life to save them…

Episode 62: Charles
Charles
Age: 23
Location: California
Addiction: Heroin
What’s Memorable: “I’ll probably die on the streets, and I hope it’s sooner rather than later.” The scene of him shooting up in the fast food restaurant bathroom is disturbing. What a life. The followup is amazing.
Update: Sadly, Charles died of an overdose on March 10, 2014. My heart goes out to his loved ones and everyone who was touched by his story.
Official synopsis: A talented motocross rider, Charles, 23, is still dealing with terrible childhood memories. When he was seven, his father went to jail for molesting him and his younger brother, and his mother became an alcoholic. Today, he uses heroin and alcohol to blot out his memories, but he’s pushed most of his family away. Now, his half-sister, Lindsey, is reuniting the family in one last attempt to help Charles with an intervention.

Jim Morrison
“People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that’s bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they’re afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they’re wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.”
― Jim Morrison
