Being Ourselves Jacob Harris searched all avenues until he landed in Hollywood. He searched for a job as an actor and tried all channels of obtaining a movie role yet to no avail. He was even ready to pay to have a position but encountered stone walls time after time as he was declined all over again.

Finally, he decided that Hollywood was not the place and just as he was considering his return journey he came upon a classified ad which stated that some company was looking for an actor. The position was really less then anything he had ever wanted to compromise on. A zoo was having a difficult time getting hold of a monkey and being that a monkey was a heavy sought after attraction, they came up with an ingenious plan; to hire someone to dress and act as

a monkey. Without any other better options, Jacob accepted the job.

One day, in the midst of performing his monkey swings, he flew over the gate to another cage. He looked around and shrank in horror as he saw a ferocious tiger ready to charge at him.

He yelled from the depths “Shema Yisroel” and to his immense surprise, hears the tiger answer back “Boruch Sheim Kevoid..” The lion in the other den shouted, “Can you guys please be quiet before we all lose our jobs…”

Mr Newman tried with all his might to “look” rich. He maxed out his credit cards and took out a mortgage for a magnificent mansion replete with a fancy car and all the other lifestyle factors that define the rich. His wife did not approve of this lifestyle and couldn’t help uttering the same words

T:347.927.4ADS(4237) F:718.799.9188 E: mail@thecoffeepaper.com

regarding the fact how they will marry off their children. Mr Newman would always reply that this is precisely part of the plan, rich people attract rich shidduchim. The time finally arrived and they indeed carried out an extremely rich shidduch. The common denominator was that the Mechutan was living exactly the same lifestyle as Mr Newman; he was also only imitating a rich lifestyle for the same reason!

ourselves and instead constantly try to imitate others, we may just one day find out that the “others” we were imitating were actually imitating someone else all along. Instead of acting like a monkey; behaving like a tiger or trying to life a different lifestyle, we all have to be the Columbus of our own soul and find our unique talents and strengths that Hashem has gifted us with and use it to better our life and the life of those around us.

The Real Dangers of High Carb Diets

Many people cut back on carbs as a method of losing weight. Unfortunately, mounting research shows that the dangers of high carb diets can go way beyond weight problems.

Eating too many simple carbohydrates can inspire blood sugar spikes, which have been implicated in a number of age-related chronic diseases.

For this reason, you should strive to minimize carbs in your diet especially simple carbs w h e n e v e r possible.

We’ll explain why below.

High Carb Diets May Cause Disease Studies show that high carb diets may increase the risk of several diseases.

Here are three of them worthy of particular concern: 1. Cancer One recent study showed that people with late-stage colon cancer were more likely to die or experience a recurrence when eating a high carb, high glycemic load diet. The mechanism isn’t clear, but scientists think that since simple carbs produce sugar, it may actually fuel cancer growth.

Other cancers are also associated with a high carb diet .

2. Cardiovascular disease Back in the 1980s, the prevailing idea was to eat carbs and avoid fats in order to prevent heart disease. Today, we know better.

In fact, research suggests that high carb diets may increase the risk of heart disease. They tend to lower HDL (good cholesterol) and increase triglycerides and VLDL (very low density lipoprotein), which are two risk factors for heart disease.

4

3. Mild cognitive impairment According to a recent study, older people who ate high carb diets were about four times more likely to develop mild cognitive impairment. Those with higher fat and protein intakes had a lower risk.

Mild cognitive impairment is an agerelated condition in which memory, thinking, and judgment are affected.

This often leads to more serious problems, like Alzheimer’s disease.

Be Sure to Pick the Right Carbs The best way to avoid the dangers of high carb diets is by avoiding simple carbs as much as possible. Common offenders include white bread, white pasta, white rice, and potatoes. When in doubt, avoid white, starchy foods.

Instead, eat more protein and pick complex carbs, like veggies and beans.

Their fiber content helps delay your gastric emptying time, minimizing the impact the food will have on your blood sugar levels.

If you’re not sure what to pick or avoid, keep a glycemic load list handy as a reference tool. This will let you measure the impact that a food will have on your blood sugar levels before you buy it or eat it.

When looking at the list, try to pick foods at the low end, with scores below 25. Also, consider taping this list to your refrigerator as a friendly reminder when reaching for foods.

In tomorrow’s edition we will reveal how certain nutrients can help lower the impact carbs have on our blood sugar levels.

the Segulah with the Power of Torah Vayetze

ACCOMPLISHED SEVERAL SHIDDUCHIM Our thoughts are still unhinged, after the difficult period we’ve just been through, but as a token of appreciation, we are faxing this letter to you, the wonderful Torah learners, who got up each night to pray and learn while mentioning our son’s name.

Unfortunately, it was destined for us to suffer indescribable pain and fear as our dear child disappeared from his yeshiva. We found out that he had gotten to a really dangerous area, one that could harm him both physically and spiritually.

We immediately called your office, feeling that “Kollel Chatzos” would be the right messengers for our son’s sake. We asked that they beg fervently that our son should see the light, with Hashem’s help.

We also requested they mention our messenger of hope, a respected outreach worker, who responded to our pleas and took on the difficult mission of rescuing our teenager from those treacherous hands.

Dear kollel members, I can’t state all the facts, but our cherished son is back b”H! Our associate related

“I’ve always hoped and looked forward to having a Torah based home” a respected middleaged mother told us recently “but none of my children have veered in that direction, as I had wished for”.

After reading about what the Holy Tana Rebbe Shimon Bar Yechoi said (.‫ )זוה"ק ח"ב מו‬that “by becoming a partner with those who learn at chatzos, you have the same share in all their merits, and to all the goodwill it brings” she decided to become a yearly partner saying: “Kollel Chatzos….that is my Torah home!”
