on the Perek “Ben Hai Hai said, according to the distress is the reward.” The mishna’s basic point -- that Hashem rewards according to effort -- provides us with an important tool for understanding Hashem’s value system. We often apply the wrong gauge when measuring human beings, and especially when comparing ourselves to others. We see people greater and wiser than ourselves and tend to assume they are naturally closer to Hashem than we. Torah study is our greatest link to Olam haba; therefore, the more learned a person is, the more religious he appears, or the more strict his practices, the closer he must be to Hashem. This is often a fair way of judging people, but it is only fair. The Gemara (Pesachim 50a) records that Rav Yosef passed away briefly and was then revived. After his recovery, his father asked him what he saw during his brief journey Heavenwards. Rav Yosef answered tersely: “I saw an upside-down world. I saw upper ones below and lower ones above.” Rav Yosef perceived that people who were “uppers” in this world -- who received all the honor and respect in this world -- often occupied the lowest positions in the World to Come. The “lowers”, however, who were neither noticed nor regarded in this world, were granted what they truly deserved -- for all to behold. Rav Yosef’s father answered him: “My son, you have seen a clear world.”
2
The message of this incident is significant, and although the world will continue to see and respect the superficial, it is something in which we may take comfort. We view and judge people in terms of apparent conviction and visible end results. But this says so little of true devotion and sacrifice. Torah study may come very easily to the born scholar with good schooling and superior IQ. It may, however, be much less precious to Hashem than the little bit of Torah acquired by the late-starting beginner -- who though perhaps expert in his own field, humbly begins at the bottom to study basic Yiddishkeit. Hashem may actually consider the latter person the greater scholar.

Health
Breaking your sugar addiction As we have discussed in our previous article, sugar is a highly addictive substance and is very harmful for your health when consumed in excess. Below, we outline several strategies that are helpful in overcoming this addiction. Diet The first step in overcoming sugar addiction is keeping a very low carbohydrate diet. Our body converts all carbs to sugar and the more we eat the more we crave it. So here are a few tips to reduce your carbohydrate intake: 1. Eat more protein. Our body can also take energy from protein and because it’s a more stable energy source, it will reduce cravings for sugar. In addition, protein consists of amino acids; some of these amino acids have a calming effect on our brains (as is elaborated on below). 2. Fats. One of the reasons sugar and carbohydrate consumption have skyrocketed in America, is because we have been scared to death from fats by our government and doctors. But the truth is, natural fats are vital for health and have a very high satiety value, thus reducing our cravings. The only fats you should avoid are trans-fats and refined omega-6 fats, which are found in vegetable oils. 3. Get rid of sweet foods like cakes, cookies, ice cream etc. The less you have around the more effective you will be in beating you sugar addiction. 4. Avoid artificially sweetened foods as

much as possible even when sweetened with natural sweetener, especially in the beginning. It is important to train your brain to go by without the sweet pleasure feeling. Exercise Exercise is very effective in helping conquer our sugar cravings. For one, it make our bodies more sensitive to insulin, which helps stabilize blood sugar ups and downs, and it also has a calming effect on the brain, consequentially reducing sugar cravings.

For some people, diet and exercise may not suffice. For these people, taking additional natural supplements can be of great assistance in fighting the cravings. This is especially true for people who have been yoyo dieting. The brains of yo-yo dieters may have been desensitized to the natural stop-craving response that usually activates when you stop consuming sugar. L-Glutamine is an amino acid that is unique in its ability to provide energy for the brain. This is very effective when you feel that you just need that sugar fix for energy because you feel weak or are suffering from brain fog. Take as much you need. Start with one gram and work your way up. Results can be seen in as little as 10 to 15 minutes
1000 mg. Results can be seen within 15 minutes. Chromium is a mineral that helps stabilize blood sugar. Studies show it to be very effective in reducing food cravings. Take 400 to 800 mcg divided throughout the day, preferably with meals. Glucomannan is a highly soluble fiber that absorbs a lot of water and tells your brain that you are full. It also slows the digestion of carbs, thus stabilizing blood sugar levels. Start out with 500mg (half a gram) 10 to 15 minutes before meals and work your way up slowly.
5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) is another amino acid that is a precursor to serotonin -- a neurotransmitter that makes us feel good. This is good for when you feel down and depressed and have uncontrollable cravings for junk food. Take 500mg to
