“When I think of infatuation, I think of someone who has a strong attraction to a person they don’t know well,” Fogel Mersy explains. ‘It can also involve rejecting information that goes against the fantasy, such as ignoring red flags or early signs of incompatibility." Someone who is infatuated is constantly thinking about that person, Fogel Mersy adds. The feeling tends to form very quickly after meeting someone, says licensed mental health counselor Grace Suh, LMHC, LPC, and the infatuated person may feel like they’ve found “the one” even though they’ve just met them....

As clinical psychologist Kristina Hallett, Ph.D., ABPP, previously explained to mbg, your type is determined by where you fall on the four different trait spectrums of the MBTI, which are introverted versus extroverted, intuitive versus sensing, thinking versus feeling, and sensing versus judging. So, an INFJ is someone who is typically more introverted and relies on their intuition to gather information. They also make decisions through feelings and emotions as opposed to logic, and they prefer to approach their life with more structure and scheduling as opposed to flexibility and spontaneity....

L- theanine might be the closest thing we’ve got so far to meditation in a capsule. The traditional therapeutic use of green tea dates back to China 4,700 years ago, and the Japanese regard tea so highly they’ve created a ceremony for it and a separate teahouse in which to serve it. Today, drinking tea still symbolizes psychological calm and contentment for most, and now science is starting to explain the physiological reasons and mechanisms behind these effects....

Most romance portrayed in Hollywood films—in which two people chase each other, fall madly in love, and the movie ends as soon as the relationship begins—looks more like lust than secure and stable love. Here, we compare the two common terms and how to tell which one you may be experiencing. Love is a bit more complex. One of the most popular subjects in literature and the arts, love in all its delights and sufferings has often appeared a mystery, defined in an infinite number of ways throughout human history....

So what’s the verdict on this integrative treatment, and does it warrant the fanfare? We investigated. It is not the only way to support NAD+ levels in the body, of course. It is also possible to increase NAD+ levels through oral supplementation of one of its precursors, such as niacin (vitamin B3), nicotinamide, and nicotinamide riboside (NR), the last option being a direct precursor2, and has been shown to be the most effective at supporting your natural levels of NAD+....

They’re not the only omegas out there, though—and the next best-known essential fatty acids, omega-6s, don’t have quite as sunny a reputation. Omega-6s aren’t inherently bad. In fact, your body needs some omega-6s (in fact, there’s a daily nutritional requirement for omega-6 linoleic acid1 because our body can’t synthesize it). However, there’s a very legitimate reason these other omegas have found themselves in the hot seat lately. Here’s what to know about these somewhat confusing fats....

But here’s the reality: Plant-based and vegan diets are not actually synonymous. While vegan diets are generally plant-based, plant-based diets are not, by definition vegan. To offer some clarity, we tapped two registered dietitians to get the scoop on these popular diets—including what they are, what foods they include, and what benefits you can expect. According to The Vegan Society, the word simply came from the first three and last two letters of “vegetarian....
