Article: Brush the walls with a coat of muted paint or have old furniture reupholstered for more of a springtime vibe. Soft shades like powder yellow and robin’s egg blue aren’t just easy on the eye, they also diffuse light effortlessly to create a pleasant glowing effect. A palette that’s too uniform can quickly become monotonous. Don't be afraid to mix things up by sticking bold bursts of primary color like reds, blues, and yellows with toned-down neutral shades. Ideally, both the main pieces and secondary accessories like pillows and throw rugs should have their own distinct qualities that achieve perfect harmony when viewed together.  Start with a particular theme (such as earth tones or cool colors) for the bulk of your decor, then sprinkle in opposing shades to the accompanying accents more visually appealing.  Avoid using too many shades that are similar but not identical. Colors that almost match can be disruptive to the eye. Do away with drab plastic, metal, and painted furniture and bring in pieces with rich wood or stone finishes. Wicker, rattan, and teak are all popular staples of sunroom style, though waterproof woods like pine and cedar are also resilient enough to last in a covered enclosure. Using more natural materials enables you to create a seamless transition with the outside world.  Stain or distress wood pieces to better suit the unique style of your interior. Clinking shell wind chimes or a Japanese bamboo water dropper can make your sunroom a delight to the ear as well as the eye. Funky designs like stripes, polka dots, chevron, and floral prints have the potential to pair wonderfully with solid colors and conservative layouts. Since they have a tendency to be rather loud, it’s best to implement them strategically. Let your decor do most of the work, and jazz things up wherever the energy in the room sags. Even an adjustment as small as changing out the cushions on a loveseat with something more eye-catching can breathe new life into a stagnant sunroom. Use floral arrangements or large potted plants to infuse your sunroom with earth tones. A few sprays of wildflowers, peace lily, or ivy, along with heartier species like ferns and succulents, can keep your lounge area from becoming too sterile and make it feel more like a treehouse or outdoor garden area.  Incorporating plants and other botanical elements is a good way for nature lovers to enjoy a taste of the outdoors during rainy days and the cold winter months. Because of the ample light and climate-controlled conditions in your sunroom, there’s arguably no better place in the house to take care of growing plants. Line the areas around the windows with striking contemporary artwork, ornamental wall hangings, or photos containing your most cherished memories. Alternatively, you could go with something less conventional like rustic sheet metal signs or a chic tapestry. Covering up bare walls will give your guests something to admire above ground level.  The sunroom can be an ideal place to show off your prized family portraits. Mounted shelves can provide a perch for oddly-shaped items while also serving as a sensible storage solution.

Article: Choose whole-grain bread and pasta over white bread and pasta. Make sure to get at least five servings of fruits and vegetables every single day. Include produce high in lycopene, a powerful antioxidant, such as red peppers and tomatoes. Lycopene is what makes fruit and vegetables red, and has been proven as a cancer-fighting ingredient. In general, the deeper and brighter the color of your produce, the better.  There are currently no guidelines as the amount of lycopene you should try to get each day. However, research indicates that for lycopene to make any difference, you would need to eat lycopene-foods all day to get the amounts needed.  Cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, bok choy and kale are also good defenses against the development of cancer. Some controlled studies have found a link between increased ingestion of cruciferous vegetables and reduced risk of prostate cancer, although the evidence is merely associative at this point. Cut back on how much red meat you eat, including beef, pork, lamb and goat. It's also a good idea to limit your consumption of processed meats, like sandwich meat and hot dogs.  Instead of red meat, eat fish with high levels of omega-3 acids, including salmon and tuna. These foods will help your prostate as well as your heart and immune system. The research about the relationship between dietary fish intake and prostate cancer prevention is largely based on correlative data and namely, the fact that the Japanese have so few cases of prostate cancer and eat large amounts of fish. Whether there is a causal relationship is still being debated.  Beans, skinless poultry, and eggs are also healthy options for protein. The properties of soy, which is found in many vegetarian dishes, fight cancer. Sources of soy include tofu, soy nuts, soy flour and soy powders. Swapping cow's milk for soy milk in your cereal or coffee is one way to get more soy into your diet. Note that recent research has found soy beans and some other specific products, such as tofu, to be preventive in prostate cancer. However, this cannot be extrapolated to all soy products, including milk. There are also no current anecdotal or evidence-based guidelines on the amount of soy you should try to incorporate into your diet. Though you don't need to entirely cut out caffeine from your diet, try to limit how much you ingest. For example, limit yourself to one to two 4-ounce cups of coffee per day. The same goes for alcohol; try to view it as a treat and stick to a couple of small glasses a week. Avoid sugary (sometimes also caffeinated) drinks like sodas and fruit juices. These have nearly zero nutritional benefit. The best way to cut back on how much sodium you consume is to eat fresh produce, dairy, and meats and avoid packaged, canned, and frozen foods. Salt is often used as a preservative and is thus present in large amounts in pre-packaged foods.  When shopping, stick to the outer perimeter of the grocery store as much as possible. This is where most of the fresh food is located, while cartons, cans, and other packages tend to be isolated in the center aisles. Take the time to read and compare food labels. Most food labels are now required to state how much sodium is in a product and what percentage it makes up of your daily recommended intake of sodium. The American Heart Association recommends that Americans consume less than 1,500 milligrams of sodium per day. Limit your consumption of saturated fats from animal and dairy products and instead switch to healthy fats, like olive oil, nuts, and avocados. Animal products high in fat, such as meat, butter, and lard, have been associated with an increase risk of prostate cancer. Avoid fast food and most processed foods. These often contain partially hydrogenated fats (trans fats), which are extremely unhealthy.
