Dina Interviewed By Westchester Magazine

https://westchestermagazine.com/life-style/reduce-stress/

I am thrilled to share that I was recently featured in Westchester Magazine’s Lifestyle section in an article on "How to Reduce Stress and Support Healthy Living in Westchester."

In the piece, I discuss “The Antistress Diet,” a practical, nutrition-based approach to lowering stress and improving sleep quality. I offer simple, science-backed strategies you can start using today, including:

🥦 Load up on produce: Enjoy at least one cup of organic, non-starchy veggies (like leafy greens, broccoli, or zucchini) with healthy fats and high-quality protein such as fish, grass-fed beef, or pasture-raised chicken.

🥕 Dip raw veggies: Skip store-bought dressings and pair your veggies with homemade hummus, salsa, or guacamole to avoid inflammatory oils.

🍎 Snack smarter at night: Trade sugary treats for nourishing options like coconut yogurt with berries or apple slices with sunflower seed butter for better sleep.

🧘‍♀️ Try alternate nostril breathing: I recommend this calming breathing practice to help your body unwind and prepare for sleep. Just a few minutes before bed can make a real difference!

You can read the full article here:

I hope these tips help you feel more balanced and at ease in your daily life. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call the office at (914) 242-0124.

I Hope You Are Enjoying A Healthy Late Fall,

Dina's Healthy Raw Cranberry Recipe For Thanksgiving

Cranberries show up every fall, and Thanksgiving is a great time to use this seasonal fruit. They are naturally tart, packed with antioxidants, and known for supporting urinary tract health, immune function, and reducing inflammation. Their bright red color and sharp flavor add freshness and nutrients to holiday meals.

This healthy cranberry recipe uses simple, wholesome ingredients and just a little sweetener so the fruit's natural taste stands out.

Ingredients:

-1 package fresh organic cranberries, rinsed
-1 Medium organic orange, washed
-Date sugar (https://shop.dinakhader.com/date-sugar-powder/), to taste. If not available use organic honey (https://shop.dinakhader.com/food/honey/)or maple syrup

Instructions:

1) Do not peel the orange, cut it in 8 pieces, removing all seeds. In your blender, macerate without turning into a paste.

2) Wash your fresh organic cranberries and place them in the blender. (If frozen, rinse them in warm water to defrost.)

3) Add date sugar and blend just enough to crush the cranberries. Test and add sugar if necessary.

Wishing All Of You A Happy Thanksgiving,

Beat Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)

Winter brings longer sleep, carb cravings, and the "blues" for many—but for up to 20% of Americans, these signal Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a temporary depression tied to reduced sunlight in fall and winter.

Pioneered by Dr. Norman Rosenthal, SAD strikes hardest in northern latitudes (e.g., ~1% in Florida vs. ~10% in New Hampshire). Less light boosts melatonin (sleepiness) and SERT (lowering serotonin, sparking mood dips).

The good news? You can fight back effectively—without moving south.

Proven Strategies to Combat SAD:

1) Boost Vitamin D3 - Double your supplement in winter (aim for >60 ng/mL blood level). Food sources are minimal; low D3 fuels SAD. https://shop.dinakhader.com/search.php?search_query=D3

2) Load Up on B Vitamins - Prioritize B6 to raise serotonin. Vegetarians are 4x more prone to SAD—take a whole-food B-complex (non-synthetic). Add niacin for extra mood support.

3) Light Therapy (Top Performer) - Beats Prozac in studies. Use a 10,000 LUX box with blue + white light (30 min/day, mornings). Add blue bulbs indoors. Avoid blue light at night—it disrupts sleep.

4) Smart Diet Tweaks - Skip refined sugars; opt for whole grains like sweet potatoes, purple potatoes, black/brown rice (especially at dinner, with lighter protein). Eat wild-caught fish 3x/week for omega-3s.

5) Move Your Body - Exercise rivals antidepressants. Outdoor workouts amplify benefits via natural light. Try yoga, meditation, or deep breathing for regeneration.

6) Therapy Boosts - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/acupressure) help manage symptoms.

Embrace Winter's Rhythm:

Some fatigue is natural—use it to rest, reflect, and recharge. Accept the season; spring energy awaits.

Ingredients:

2 tbsp organic coconut oil
1 medium organic yellow onion, diced (about 1.5 cups)
1 tsp pink salt
4 organic garlic cloves, minced (or 1 tsp garlic powder)
1 tbsp Bionaturae organic tomato paste
2 tsp organic ground cumin
1 tsp organic ground ginger
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp organic ground coriander
4 (13 oz) jars of Jovial chickpeas; only 1 drained, 2 with liquid)
1/2 cup chopped organic parsley or cilantro
1/4 tsp organic cayenne (optional)
1 tsp organic lemon zest (optional)

Instructions:

1) In a large, wide frying pan, warm oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and salt; sauté for about 6 minutes, until soft and lightly caramelized.

2) Reduce the heat to medium-low. Stir in garlic, tomato paste, cumin, ginger, cinnamon, and coriander. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to avoid burning. The mixture will be thick and intensely aromatic.

3) Stir in 1 jar of drained chickpeas. Simmer 5 min.

4) While the stew simmers, add two jars of chickpeas with liquid to a blender. Process until smooth and creamy.

5) Stir blended chickpeas into the mixture. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a gentle boil. Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for about 20 min., stirring occasionally until it is piping hot. Add herbs and lemon zest for brightness or cayenne for heat.

6) Season with additional salt as needed before serving.
