We could all use a little less stress, a little more fun, and better health, right? Turns out, oysters may help.

Here are the top 5 ways oysters can improve your life.

1. De-stress by shucking oysters.
Try unwinding by shucking. The art and skill of shucking activates a specific part of the brain and has a de-stressing effect with a little practice. Hey, sounds like science to us.

2. Relax with friends and oysters.
Friends and oysters go together like nothing else. Enjoying sweet, salty, savory Bear Tide Oysters with people you care about is a recipe for a good life.

3. Express your creativity with oysters.
Experiment with oyster toppers. Remember that larger oysters may hold up better to bolder flavors, while the petite oysters may demand more delicate flavors so they can shine.

4. Take a sensory journey with oysters.
Explore your senses when you enjoy your next oyster. Think about the texture, taste, smell. Does it transport you to the salty sea, a sunny beach, a warm hug?

5. Improve your health with oysters.
Oysters are rich in antioxidants. Antioxidants prevent or slow cell damage caused by free radicals--those unstable molecules the body produces as a reaction to environmental and other pressures. Not only that, they’re a good source of protein, vitamins, and healthy fats. And that actually IS backed by science.*
