Stress Test

I took the quiz on my stress level which turned out to be mild. Actually I think a lot of my stress comes from having little stress after years of high stress. After going on adrenalin for years and years, it's hard to stop.

Stress Reducing Foods

I viewed the slide show about stress reducing foods. Some I already include in my diet quite frequently such as oatmeal, almonds, avocados, and black tea. Pistachios was a new one to me. I'll have to check out if I can find some that are salt free. It was interesting that many of the stress reducing foods also work to reduce or prevent high blood pressure.
