2011-01-04T17:01:00.000-08:00

Nopalea is the first product released as part of the new TriVita Sonoran Bloom product line.

The product line is so named because the primary ingredients of the line are all derived from plants of the Sonoran Desert. For Nopalea, the primary ingredient happens to be the fruit of the Nopal Cactus or "Prickly Pear".

Nopalea from TriVita, uses only the freshest Nopal cactus fruit and preserves its antioxidant potency in our state-of-the-art facility. We carefully harvest the cactus fruit using sustainable wildcrafting techniques that have been practiced in the Sonoran Desert for thousands of years.

Every single day, we are subjected to toxins in our food, water and air, and even toxins created by very our own bodies. Nopalea combines its betalains with other anti-toxic ingredients to combat these poisons where they strike us first, right inside the trillions of cells in our bodies.

The Sonoran Bloom Nopal fruit isn’t just included in this small group of special plants, it actually leads the group by containing one of the highest amounts of betalains in all of nature.

When you drink Sonoran Bloom Nopalea, you take these betalains into your system, where they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Nopalea can reduce the inflammation in your body that leads to disease.

All TriVita products have a 100% full 60-day empty bottle money back guarantee. If you are not completely satisfied with any TriVita product even after using all of it, you will get all of your money back. The products must be pretty good since the return rate is less than 1%.

vitamin B12

2010-12-07T00:45:00.000-08:00

The subject of vitamin B12 is not new to most vegans, vegetarians or raw fooders. The supplement companies have many people running to their local health (drug) stores in an effort to make themselves deficiency-free, but is this a good idea? A number of issues will be raised in this article and I will attempt to piece together some information from many different and reliable (non-financially-oriented) sources.

A vitamin B12 deficiency is a serious disorder and indications of a deficiency of vitamin B12, when they do reach a stage where they have shown up, can be quite severe. Fatigue, paleness, anorexia, mental confusion, delusions, paranoia, weight loss, respiratory problems, etc. are just some indications that a person may have a B12-deficiency. In my opinion, ME is often a B12-deficiency disorder. If you do think you may have a B12-deficiency, it would be wise for you to seek the advice of a health practitioner (such as myself) who is knowledgeable about B12-deficiencies, for immediate advice. I would strongly recommend that you do something to remedy the situation, as this deficiency can eventually lead to death if left unchecked.

Not all vitamin B12 in food is bioavailable. For instance, the B12 in plant foods (like green vegetables and soy) is an analog form of the vitamin which cannot be used in the human body. This analog B12 can actually interfere with the absorption of other types of vitamin B12, making the reliance on plant foods for B12 very ineffective for many individuals. Soy foods, in particular, appear to cause problems in B12 absorption.

Vitamin B-12

2010-11-30T21:24:00.000-08:00

Vitamin B-12 is an important vitamin that you usually get from your food. It is mainly found in meat and dairy products. Vitamin B-12 helps make red blood cells and keeps your nervous system working properly.

Vitamin B12 deficiency can become a major problem, not just for vegans, for many individuals. And it usually results from inadequate absorption of the nutrients in the digestive system. Stress does interfere with B12 absorption> However, "impaired absorption is typically rooted to the inability of the body to absorb vitamin B12 due to recurring or external factors such as aging, complication, diseases, and other infections.

Out of all the external factors that lead to impaired absorption, I believe age is actually what leads to our largest vitamin b-12 deficiency problem. This also leads to a major healthcare system problem. Why? As the largest portion of our population (the baby-boomers) continues to age the number of vitamin b-12 deficiency is bound to increase, because the older you get the harder it is for the body to absorb this nutrient.

A lot of doctors recommend vitamin b12 shots over other oral tablets. However, TriVita's patented Sublingual Vitamin B12 may provide the proper supply of this all important vitamin.

Vitamin B-12

2010-11-22T18:22:00.000-08:00

Vitamin B12 is an essential water-soluble vitamin that is commonly found in a variety of foods such as fish, shellfish, meat, and dairy products. Vitamin B12 is frequently used in combination with other B vitamins in a vitamin B complex formulation. It helps maintain healthy nerve cells and red blood cells and is also needed to make DNA, the genetic material in all cells. Vitamin B-12 is bound to the protein in food. Hydrochloric acid in the stomach releases B12 from protein during digestion. Once released, B12 combines with a substance called intrinsic factor (IF) before it is absorbed into the bloodstream.

Vitamin B-12 Deficiency Symptoms

Vitamin B12 deficiency symptoms, like those of many other treatable health conditions, can be virtually identical to age dementia symptoms, senile dementia symptoms and Alzheimers symptoms. As many as 20% of people over age 65 have low Vitamin B12 levels. Correcting the deficiency can help older people resume a full and normal lives.

Vitamin B12 deficiency symptoms include:

Loss of appetite

Diarrhea

Numbness and tingling of hands and feet

Paleness

Shortness of breath

Fatigue

Weakness

Sore mouth and tongue

Confusion or change in mental status in severe or advanced cases. This is sometimes confused with dementia. More importantly, even a moderate deficiency of this important vitamin and its counterpart, folic acid, may ultimate contribute to the onset of Alzheimers disease or other related dementias

What Triggers Inflammation?

2010-11-17T04:48:00.001-08:00

First off, we have to understand inflammation. So, we have to answer the question, what is inflammation? "Inflammation is a process by which the body's white blood cells and chemicals protect us from infection and foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses." So you may be wondering, what triggers inflammation? There are four basic triggers; trauma, deficiency, stress, and toxins. As we move along, we will take a look at each of the four basic triggers, and then look at how we can deal with inflammation.

When we mention the word "trauma", the first thing that probably comes to mind is an accident which causes some sort of serious or critical bodily injury. Trauma is typically associated with pain and suffering as a direct result of that injury. Even though most inflammation causes pain and/or suffering, inflammation can be a good thing, because inflammation is a natural part of the healing process. As a matter of fact, "without inflammation, wounds and infections would never heal."

Our bodily cells are alive. By many scientists, they are called the "building block of life" Cells are constantly changing, and they are directly affected by everything we do. They grow or change according to the foods we eat. Starving (deficiency) our cells of the proper vitamins, minerals, and nutrients causes our cells to become inefficient, even to the point where they break down. Thus deficiencies can and do happen, weakening the cells causing a chain reaction within our body, ultimately triggering inflammation.

Emotional stress can also cause inflammation. It's been noted that in stressful situations our brain releases chemicals, stress hormones (adrenaline and cortisol), that trigger the release of many inflammatory processes. Because of the widespread damage stress can cause, like inflammation, it's important to know your own limit. However, how much stress is "too much" differs from person to person. many individuals can roll with the punches, while others fall apart at the slightest sign of frustration.

Research points to the fact that we live in a toxic world, and that our bodies are swimming in toxins. Toxins are every where you turn. They are in every breath we take and the food that we eat. Some foods are contaminated with heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, or other chemicals.

I've even read that foods that carry toxic compounds "can cause the body to hold on to extra pounds by starting an immune reaction that causes inflammation," Toxins created inside and outside our bodies is seemingly unescapable, which leads us to believe that there is no escape from inflammation producing poison.

Our bodies are truly amazing as it can respond to trauma, deficiency, stress and toxins with inflammation. As mentioned inflammation is the bodies natural healing process, but where it all goes wrong is with runaway (chronic) inflammation wherein the body can't shut it down causing auto immune, and many other, diseases.

So how do we keep inflammation in check? According to TriVita's Chief Science Officer, Brazos Minshew, we should learn to become a partner with our bodies. We need to watch for the signs that can trigger inflammation. we should also reduce basic nutrient deficiencies by eating healthy foods and taking quality supplements. One aggressive inflammation fighter is found in the nutrient called Betalains, the main nutrient found in TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea.

We need to walk, run, stretch, and become more active. Activity and/or exercise in any form keeps your mind alert, blood flowing, and muscles moving. We also need to ease our emotional stress and learn how to relax. Anything we can do to help fight off the triggers that cause inflammation will help us live longer and healthier lives.

B12 Vitamins

2010-11-08T17:00:00.000-08:00

We all have felt a little tired, got a little moody, or forget where we put things from time to time. No big deal right, it doesn't happen everyday or does it? The truth is many people have one or more of these symptoms on a daily basis. Sometimes it is due to medical reasons, often it is the lack or deficiency of B vitamins, specifically 13478787 .

What is it?

B12 and folate are B complex vitamins that are necessary for normal red blood cell formation, tissue and cellular repair, and DNA synthesis. A and/or folate deficiency reflects a chronic shortage of one or both of these vitamins. Since the body stores 3 to 5 years worth of B12 B12 and several months’ supply of folate in the liver, deficiencies and their associated symptoms can take months to years to manifest in adults. Infants and children will show signs of deficiency more rapidly, however, as they have not yet established extensive reserves.

B12 is properly maintaining your nervous system and helping to keep nerve cells healthy. This in turn keeps your brain functioning the way it should. B vitamins also assists in the production and regulation of DNA, which is present in every cell in your body. And since this nutrient is also a very strong antioxidant, it helps fight off free radicals which can lead to cancer. It is important that your body gets some vitamin B12 every day. It helps metabolize the food you eat so you can utilize it for energy. It does this by helping turn the carbohydrates in your food to glucose. When the glucose is released into your system, it gives you energy. Many people who struggle with fatigue and low energy often have a vitamin B12 deficiency.

A simple fact still remains, your body requires B-12 vitamins to function properly, along with many other nutrients. As we grow older our bodies are less able to pull B-12, a precious resource from some of the foods most rich in it. This becomes a real problem for many people, even those that do in fact eat a well balanced diet, including foods rich in B-12. Therefore, it has long been stated that in order to reach your daily requirement of B-12 it should be taken in a quality supplement.

Over time, a deficiency in either B12 or folate can lead to macrocytic anemia, a condition characterized by the production of fewer, but larger red blood cells and a decreased ability to carry oxygen. Due to the anemia, patients may be weak, light-headed, and short of breath. A deficiency in B12 can also result in varying degrees of neuropathy, nerve damage that can cause tingling and numbness in the patient’s hands and feet and mental changes that range from confusion and irritability to severe dementia.

Our bodies along with our cells eventually die, thus when a cell dies, the stem cells made in your bone marrow and other parts of our bodies are released back through a chemical trail to the dead cell, basically transforming to the type of cell it is to replace. For me it explains a lot about the aging process because it is defined as cell death and cell replacement. Further demonstrating why some people age prematurely, because stem cells cannot keep up daily with the demand of dead cells. Too many dead cells, not enough stem cells to keep up. On the flip side, if stem cells are not under such extreme demands on a daily basis, and an adequate amount can be produced daily you age slower. A healthy human being is less likely to experience chronic diseases associated with premature aging. Obviously, having a whole lot of stem cells is a very good thing indeed!

Pregnant women need increased amounts of folate for proper fetal development. If a woman has a folate deficiency prior to pregnancy, it will be intensified during gestation and may lead to premature birth and neural tube birth defects, such as spina bifida, in the child.

Weight Loss

2010-11-05T05:20:00.001-07:00

In an effort to stop world wide hunger, you can purchase and then donate Leanology™ shakes. Not only are Leanology shakes a great way to lose weight they are also an excellent source of vitamins and nutrients. For some, weight loss may be the first step to living a healthier lifestyle. However, many people around the world are starving to death.

I this latest report by Yahoo! News, 'Alarming' Numbers Go Hungry in 25 Countries: Report[1], The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)is suffering the worse. "Three quarters of the population in the vast central African country is under-nourished, and the DRC also has one of the highest child mortality rates in the world."

The Leanology™ shake has a well-balanced nutritional profile containing elements that are essential to a healthy meal: protein, healthy carbs, healthy fats, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Besides helping to satisfy ones hunger, the Leanology shake provides the added health benefits of soy, omega fatty acids, and whole food concentrates.

Yes, the Leanology™ shake can provide the necessary vitamins, minerals, and nutrients for a person looking to lose weight, but it can be even more effective to the people that do not have the luxury of eating food on a daily basis. Most donated foods that are reaching these nations are not easily digested. Rice, noodles, and pasta are great fillers, but not beneficial to the human body, especially to the individuals that only get one meal per week. For the most part, their bodies cannot digest the food and some children die as a result of diarrhea, and dehydration.

We have two major problems, one within the U.S.A., and one globally. Obesity is running rampant in the U.S., and starvation is running rampant in many third world countries. We can all do our part to, one, lose weight, and two, help the less fortunate. If you're looking for a weight loss program, Leanology may be right for you. If you're looking to help the starving people of the world, Leanology can help.

Please help me, so I can help others. Every 5 purchases of Leanology™ shakes will net one purchase of Leanology shakes for a third world country. You can also purchase the Leanology™ shakes and donate them yourself. If we all join together, we can prevent the unprecedented starvation around the world. If you do your part, I will do my part. It doesn't matter if your looking to lose weight, or help the starving children around the world, by doing either one you will be helping provide meals to third world countries.

Inflammation and the Flu

2010-10-26T06:23:00.001-07:00

As the cold and flu season is upon us, it's time to talk about its causes, and how we can protection our selves from having it effect our lives. Although it's something we cannot control, I believe there are measures we can take to decrease the impact the flu may have on our bodies.

I for one have always suggested preventative medicine as being the best medicine, like taking vitamin C at the first signs of the change in weather, if you're not taking it all year 'round. I'm also a huge proponent of a taking a daily multiple vitamin, something I have done ever since I could remember. I'm also a big advocate about the proper amount of sleep. The three items listed above, vitamin C, multiple vitamins, and sleep, I believe, can go a long way in protecting you from not only the flu, but other diseases as well.

Since I'm not a medical doctor or science professor, I'll leave the explanation of the proper way to protect your self from the flu up to TriVita's Chief Science Officer, Brazos Minshew.

Important Health News - Protect Yourself from the Flu
by Brazos Minshew, TriVita's Chief Science Officer

About this time of year many people ask me what they can do to prevent the flu or minimize its impact. That has never seemed more relevant than today; so, I will address this with the best science we have available today. I say "today's best science" because we simply don't know everything we need to know about preventing and treating the flu. And we need to remember that not all that long ago "current science" said that the earth was flat and diseases were caused by evils spells or dead ancestors.

Many people never get the flu - no matter which strain we are talking about. Do you? When you get the flu, are your symptoms severe? Are there high-risk people living with you? Then your preference for or against preventive measures must take them into consideration. (What if you got it and survived but transmitted it to them and they died? How would you feel?) In any case, 35,000-40,000 people in North America die of the flu each year. It is estimated that this number will double with H1N1.

Flu protection
There are three pathways you need to focus on with flu protection - any variety:

Transmission
Infection
Inflammation

Inflammation
We will begin at the ending: Inflammation from the immune system that incapacitates - even kills - people when they have the flu. MOST IMPORTANT: The flu kills people not by transmission or by infection, but by an inflammatory immune system response called the "cytokine storm."

Our immune system is designed to neutralize and excrete any non-self protein it finds. That includes the influenza virus. The size of the immune response needs to be equivalent to the strength of the invader.

Think of this as a building on fire: small fires are extinguished by local fire fighters. Some fires are so big that fire fighters from other departments have to be called in to help. So, fires are designated as "one-alarm," "two-alarm," "three-alarm," and so on. At a certain point, our immune system pulls all of the alarms and immune system fractions from all over our body rush to put out the fire, so to speak. However, this is a case of fighting fire with fire. Cytokines are inflammatory. They kill viruses and bacteria by creating inflammation.

The cytokine storm is responsible for all of the symptoms we feel: fever, body aches, nausea, diarrhea, etc. It is also responsible for filling the lungs with mucous (pneumonia/pneumonitis) which is often the fatal trigger in influenza, SARS, Hanta virus, bubonic plague, etc.

To survive we must modulate the cytokine storm so that it does its job but doesn't overwork and kill us. We make it work smarter, not harder. So we don't use Vitamin C or Echinacea or anything that "boosts" the immune system. We use immune system modulators so we get exactly the right response. Quercetin (Betalains in Nopalea are quercetin bioflavonoids), green tea polyphenols (found in Energy Now!) and ginseng (Panax and Eleutherococcus found in Adaptogen 10 Plus) all help balance the body's immune system and decrease the cytokine storm.

Infection
Prior to the cytokine storm is the infection stage of influenza. The virus infects the cell by matching a cell receptor called Hemagglutinin. Hemagglutinin (the "H" in H1N1) allows the virus to gain entry to the cell and mutate the cell DNA so it can breed an infection. It also allows the newly mutated DNA to be incorporated into surrounding cells and through cell lines. Hemagglutinin describes "infection" with the flu. Two powerful natural bulwarks of Hemagglutinin are green tea polyphenols and ginseng (Panax and Eleutherococcus) found in Super Sublingual B-12.

Transmission
Neuraminidase describes "transmission" of the flu where the virus disarms the immune system with an enzyme. This is the "N" in H1N1, H5N1. Neuraminidase inhibitors like Tamiflu limit the ability of the virus to transmit its DNA strands. Two strong natural Neuraminidase protectors are green tea polyphenols and quercetin (Betalains in Nopalea are quercetin bioflavonoids). It is likely that green tea polyphenols and quercetin will help your body do what it does best: resist infection. Think of them as the first line of defense to arm your immune system and help protect against the flu virus from disarming it. *** End of Article ***

To me, preventative medicine makes more sense and if vitamin C, multiple vitamins, or Nopalea can do one-half of what has been scientifically proven, I believe many people will be protected from the flu, not to mention living healthier and more active lives.

The flu can be extremely dangerous to your health. However, I believe, like so many others, that inflammation may even be more dangerous, because it is related, or the leading cause of so many diseases. And if we can continue to fight inflammation by drinking a product like Nopalea, I believe we can all live longer and healthier lives.

Work at Home Freedom

2010-10-18T08:19:00.001-07:00

Can a work at home business help you to become financially free? I guess that all depends on how you define "financially free." If you're thinking in terms of having enough money to pay your bills, I would say yes, a work at home business can help you attain that goal. On the other hand, if you're referring to doing what you want to do when you want to do it, I would also say yes, but with reservation.

Many people say they want to be financially free (do what they want when they want to do it), but never achieve that position in their life. Why? I believe that the majority of individuals do not know what it takes to make this goal become a reality, or it may not be a real goal, but rather a pipe dream.

"Freedom has often been stated as having the ability to do what you want, when you want; as long as it is truthful, honest, and does not violate the rights of others." That, according to my friend at the Help End Hunger Foundation, makes a strong point to the fact that freedom is as it means, that you are free to do whatever you would like to do. This is not a new concept nor is it rocket science. However, so many people find themselves in the same rat race year after year, even though they have said they wanted to be free. To me, it just doesn't make sense!

There are plenty of work at home businesses out there that offer the "freedom" yet not that many people reach that financial freedom plateau. Again, referring back to my original statement, either it's not a goal, or maybe they just don't know what it takes to succeed. Working from home takes dedication, hard work and discipline. It's so easy to get off track when working from home. The distractions can be plentiful. The comforts of your home can be a distraction in and of itself. But rather than the distractions, I believe it's the "hard work" aspect of a work at home business that discourages even the most disciplined entrepreneur.

When you're working for yourself you have to wear all the hats. You have to make all the decisions. You have to make the sales calls, and follow up with leads and/or interested clients. If you're selling a product, you may even have to be the delivery person. YIKES! How can one person do all those tasks and still find time for themselves? It may seem impossible, but there are ways to overcome it. One way is to form a team and delegate responsibilities.

Since the majority of home businesses are of the network marketing variety, teamwork should be a priority. After all aren't you part of a team (your network) to begin with? Shouldn't your upline help you with your business? Shouldn't your upline be looking out for your best interest? In a real network marketing business the answer should be a resounding yes. However, sad but true, many networkers are just looking out for number one, themselves. This may be the reason why so many work at home businesses collapse.

To become successful you first have to have a reason for doing the business (your WHY). You then have to take on the mentality of helping others, and putting them ahead of you. You have to find their reason for starting a work at home business and you have to remind them why they are doing this type of work, every step of the way. Helping others reach their goal should be your mission, and part of your every day practice. Remember, there is no "I" in team! If you're not helping others and leading your team by giving them daily responsibilities, you may be on the wrong path.

So, are you on the path to financial freedom? Are you financially free? If you have a home business and are not free or even on the path to financial freedom, you may have to take a step back and re-evaluate why. Are you being truthful, honest, and not violating the rights of others? You, and only you, know the answer to that question. A work at home business can give you the freedom, but the key to that freedom lies within.

TriVita Home Business

2010-10-15T11:58:00.001-07:00

Many "Work at Home" entrepreneurs are faced with a seemingly very difficult uphill battle. Why? Because there are so many cut-throat competitors, along with increasing advertising costs, and the average customer/distributor retention rate that has dropped down to an average of less than 3 months.

To successfully generate a full-time income, or even a residual income, from home, through a network marketing business model in the Internet age, can be like trying to fill a bucket that is full of holes. Trying to find the "perfect" networker, the one that understands the business, can be like finding a needle in a haystack. Most distributors (I've heard around 90%) are spending way more money than they'll ever make. OUCH! I believe the reason this happens is because of the outrageous claims many network marketers make about making a six-figure income, in a very short period of time, and without doing any work.

As people join a home based business opportunity, one with those ridiculous promises, they’ll get fed up and quit. The ones that do stick it out for a slightly longer period do so because they realize they have spent their hard earned money and would like to get some sort of return on their investment. However, they typically wind up quitting anyway because they found that no one is building their work at home business for them. And it takes a lot more time and effort than they were initially told.

Building a successful work at home business does take time and it does take hard work. But, it can be very rewarding if you just stick with it. I remember reading this one quote when I first got started in my network marketing business; "Never Give Up!" There is a lot of wisdom in that statement. If I would have given up years ago, I probably would not be writing this article today. And I would probably be saying, "what if." However, today it's a little different, because now I can say, "What if... I would have quit?"

I don't know of any work at home professional that like the high attrition rate in this industry. That's why I have fond a way to combat it, with customers. You see customers are the life-blood of any business, not just one you work from home. Customers, people spending money on products or services, are the people that keep your business going in the long term, not independent reps, or distributors. Yes, I know there is an attrition factor with customers, but it's not has high as it is with work at home wannabe's (distributors).

So, it you're tired of dealing with downline attrition and small commission checks, you need to build a business based on a large customer base, NOT a large distributor base. There is one company that follows that business model, TriVita. Yes, TriVita is the only work at home business you will find on Google that is built on customers, not distributors. Our business building group at Its Good Business knows this first hand. We have several individuals that are working full-time from home. Why? Because they have a strong customer base, people who are buying TriVita products.

More and more work at home business owners are turning away from the traditional "MLM" business model, in favor of an increasingly popular "customer based" TriVita business. If you'd like to learn more about a TriVita home business, give me a call, or visit our "TriVita" web site.

Avoid Work at Home Scams

2010-10-13T04:54:00.000-07:00

Real work from home business opportunities are in abundance. However, the Internet has become a breeding ground for get-rich-quick schemes. It seems to me that for every real job, there are hundreds of duds, and many may even be what some people refer to as scams. Don't become a victim of a scam. Do your due-diligence - research the company, and its principals, before joining any work at home business opportunity.

It's not hard to find a real work at home business opportunity, and it's even easier to see the difference between a real work at home business opportunity and a scam. For example, if some one is making outrageous income claims, chances are, it's a scam. If the opportunity they are promoting is based strictly around money, like pay $50 to join and you will get paid a 75% commission once you get three people to join, it's probably a scam. Real businesses sell products, and are typically product based, rather than strictly selling an opportunity. In the real business world you get paid commissions from products and/or services that are sold, NOT on the number of recruits you sign up. There is a good chance that if the company is paying you for recruiting it's probably a pyramid scheme, which is illegal.

Here is it what the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has to say on this subject:

"Multilevel or 'network' marketing plans are a way of selling goods or services through distributors. These plans typically promise that if you sign up as a distributor, you'll receive commissions—for your sales and those of the people you recruit to become distributors. These recruits sometimes are referred to as your 'downline.'"

"Some multilevel marketing plans are legitimate. However, others are illegal pyramid schemes. In pyramids, commissions are based on the number of distributors recruited. Most of the product sales are made to these distributors - not to consumers in general. The underlying goods and services, which vary from vitamins to car leases, serve only to make the schemes look legitimate."

"Joining a pyramid is risky because the vast majority of participants lose money to pay for the rewards of a lucky few. Most people end up with nothing to show for their money except the expensive products or marketing materials they're pressured to buy."

So, if you're looking for a real work at home business, do your research. The Internet has plenty of sites where you can find out if the company/opportunity is real. BUT, you have to do the research! DO NOT rely of what a person is telling you - do the research yourself.

Working from home can bring you some extra monthly income, or it can help you to become financially free. However, that is strictly up to you. You have to set your goals. You have to decide what you want to get out of your hard work. You have to make the decision. Nobody can make that decision for you. You have to check out the work at home opportunity, because people will try to sell you on their opportunity. And if you're like the majority of people, you probably do not like to be sold. If you find the perfect work from home opportunity for you, and the company is legit, have fun and work to make your dreams and goals become a reality.

Omega Prime by TriVita

2010-10-12T04:40:00.001-07:00

I have been researching and writing articles about omega-3 essential fatty acids for some time now. Why? Because I have high cholesterol, and I wanted to find out if I could control it naturally by supplementing my diet with omega-3, and eating more foods high in essential fatty acids.

I was amazed at the information I found regarding omega-3 fatty acids, and their affects, not only on decreasing bad cholesterol and increasing god cholesterol, but also on fighting inflammation and improving heart health. It is no surprise that I have continued taking a daily supplement of omega-3 ever since.

Since we have a lot of fat (good and bad) in our bodies, we need to do something to make the good fat more effective. But, instead of me trying to explain the science behind good and bad fats, I'd rather have the Chief Science Officer of TriVita, Brazos Minshew, do the explaining. Below is his latest article from the TriVita Weekly Wellness Report

Good Fats, Bad Fats and OmegaPrime®

Almost every cell making up your body is surrounded by fat. Fats are very smart molecules. Good fats make your brain healthy, they make your heart healthy; they reduce inflammation and improve circulation. They improve your immune system and reduce pain.

Trans-fats are examples of "bad" fats. They have just the opposite effect of good fats: they make your brain, heart and immune system unhealthy. They increase pain and they are a toxic cause of inflammation.

Good fats are essential for life and good health.

The story of good fats
Our immune system relies on Vitamin D and fats. When we are exposed to infections, a "picture" of the invading microbe is encoded in immune cells and recorded in fat for long-term memory. This is the reason why we have lifelong resistance or immunity to certain infections once we have the illness (like chicken pox).

There is a family of conditions where the immune system works too hard. These disorders are called autoimmune conditions because a person's own immune system loses the ability to distinguish "self" from "non-self." In autoimmune conditions your own immune system attacks healthy tissue as if it were diseased! Every gland, organ and joint becomes a target of your immune system.

Essential fatty acids make your immune system work smarter, not harder. They code immune system proteins to precisely identify every cell and to determine an appropriate response.

OmegaPrime
TriVita OmegaPrime contains essential fatty acids (EFA) from four sources:

Omega-3: Fish oil
A key ingredient in OmegaPrime is fish oil. Omega-3 from fish oil is healthy for your body and it shows a special affinity for your heart and brain. Fish oil contains fully metabolized Omega-3 and is thus absorbed very quickly.
Omega-3: Flaxseed oil
Flaxseed oil is a vegetarian source of Omega-3. It is not fully broken down as fish oil is. Instead, it must be slowly metabolized over several hours. Think of fish oil as "fast-acting" and flaxseed oil as "sustained release."
Omega-3 & Omega-6: Perilla Seed oil
Humans cannot synthesize essential fatty acids: Omega-3 ALA (alpha linolenic acid) and Omega-6 LA (linoleic acid). We must get them from our diet and that is why they are called "essential." Perilla seeds contain a balance of Omega-3 ALA and Omega-6 LA.

There are nearly 500 articles in the Institutes of Health database on perilla. Scientists from all over the world are studying the oil of this amazing anti-inflammatory seed. Over 80 of these papers detail its use with the specific genes associated with various cancers. Over 50 articles discuss the anti-inflammatory benefits of perilla seed oil concerning allergy, asthma and other immune and cardiovascular disorders.
Omega-6: Evening Primrose oil
Evening Primrose oil (EPO) is a primary source of LA (linoleic acid) in OmegaPrime. LA goes through a long process of metabolism that results in intense anti-inflammatory activity. For example, LA helps reduce the inflammation associated with dermatitis. EPO promotes breast health and helps reduce breast pain. It also promotes cardiovascular health. Evening Primrose oil is an excellent source of LA, and OmegaPrime is an excellent source of EPO.

Conclusion
Essential Fatty acids are ESSENTIAL to Wellness! We cannot make them; we must get them from our diet. The healthier our fat intake is, the healthier our body will become. People in North America are woefully deficient in healthy Omega EFAs. Eat healthy fats and reject unhealthy fats like trans-fats for a healthy heart, brain and immune system.

Since EFAs are necessary to keep our bodies healthy, we need to incorporate them into our diets. However, eating fish may be your best bet. The purest choice fish includes canned sardines or mackerel, wild Alaskan salmon and sablefish, and small, troll-caught tuna.

If you're not a fish eater, TriVita's Omega Prime is a supplement that gives you the needed omega-3 fatty acid to maintain a healthy omega-3 balance.

TriVita's OmegaPrime contains a premier and unique blend of four different types of the most highly regarded Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) oils – Fish, Flaxseed, Evening Primrose and Perilla Seed. It also uses only contaminant-free fish oil that has undergone a 10 stage distilling process.

Work at Home

2010-10-07T05:59:00.001-07:00

When I got the idea that I'd like to work from home, I started searching for an easy way to start a home based business. Yes, I wanted to work at home and do something that I lived. My search continued for several years, after falling for some really bad deals that cost lots of money, before I found what I was looking for. Not only did I find the business that was right for me, I also learned a lot about what it takes to survive, and prosper, working from home. I also found some things that I did not like, more on that later.

Before I continue, I should tell you, there is no work at home business that is easy. However, there are people that make outrageous promises like, "all you have to do is sign up and we'll do all the work for you." Well let me tell you, ALL businesses, home or other wise, take time and hard work to become successful. I wish I would have known this years ago, I may have been retired by now. I guess it wasn't God's plan for me, because He led me to a great business partner, a terrific marketing system, and to the Its Good Business team.

As I reflect on my own situation, I believe each step of our journey is there for a reason. Each step builds character. Each step makes us appreciate our rewards even more, and also the value of our hard work. There is no free lunch! Everything worth while takes hard work, and perseverance. So, if you're looking for the easy way out, or an easy way to start a work at home business stop wasting your time, there are none to be found. Take it from me, or ask my friends on the Its Good Business team. I know we can save you lots of hours, days, months, or years of wasted time, and we will also save you lots of money.

We have the experience to show you what to do, and the things to avoid to become successful. Many of us have been on both sides of that fence. As I share my experiences, and put my thoughts to the computer, it's my goal to help people avoid the pitfalls and traps that many of us have fallen into. And the one that comes to mind first is the "get rich quick trap!" Many individuals have either given up on their dreams, or have lost lots of money due to this type of scam.

It's my intention, in collaboration with the Its Good Business team, to help you build a solid work at home business, with a solid company, and with solid products. If you have never had a home business but would like to one, you came to the right place. Our team of experienced work at home marketers are here to help you with your business.

Work at Home Education

2010-10-06T05:13:00.001-07:00

Is it just me or are there a lot of people walking around in a "Constant State of Confusion?" It seems that they (you) spend their (our) entire lives just reacting to everything around them. Do you know what I'm talking about? It's the people (maybe even you) that never seem to move in a forward direction in their lives. Even when they (you) seem to take a step forward, they end up taking 2 steps backwards. This is especially true when it comes to people who would like to have a work at home business. And, with some people, this becomes so obvious, it even becomes predictable.

So, why are so many people in this constant state of confusion and non-forward movement when it comes to a work at home business? I believe it has a two-fold answer. First, people have been told that they can make lots of money from home just by working an hour or two a day. Although that may be true in some very rare cases, it's not the norm. Secondly, people have not been "educated" properly on what it actually takes to build a successful home based business. This, by far, is the main reason people wind up in a state of confusion, and walking away from the dream of owning a home business.

As I was writing this article, I received an email with the subject, "Legitimate Work at Home Job." Yes, believe it or not, there are a lot of legitimate jobs that you can work from home. Aside from that, what makes this email so confusing is the subtitle, "I want a job where I don't have to work a ton of hours to make a ton of cash," don't we all? I believe a statement like that is enough to cause someone to get all excited that they fill out the form and then join that opportunity.

After all, aren't most of us wired that way? Typically, we all want self-gratification and want to get paid what we feel we are worth.

However, after spending hours upon hours learning a new system (with our new business opportunity), we become confused and stop moving forward. We give up! We weren't looking to work more hours then our current job, but rather, work less and get paid more. It's easy to see why it can become confusing, and why someone would give up and stop moving forward?

This is the problem with many of the work from home business opportunities that you find online. They promise you lots of money with little or no work, but in all actuality, you wind up working more hours and getting paid less per hour than your current job. But, that's NOT what they promised, right? Exactly! That's were the confusion comes in, and why people get frustrated and that's were being properly educated, on what it takes to work at home, comes into play.

Education has been programmed into our heads ever since our first day of school. Our parents told us to pay attention in school, and to get good grades. As we got older we were told to get a great education so we could get a great job, but as we got older and got out of school, a lot of us wound up working in a field that we dislike. So we start looking elsewhere for that self-gratification that is supposed to come from our work.

With that said, if you're looking to work from home, it's important to get educated, to learn the ropes from someone that has been there, or is currently in that situation. Learn what it takes to become successful. Learn from someone that speaks the truth, not someone that will tell you what you want to hear. If someone claims to be an expert, ask them for their credentials, or do a search on Google, Yahoo! or Bing. If you can't find any information about them, they are probably NOT who they say they are. In that case, you should move on!

A work at home business is no different than a real job. You need to be educated. You need to know what the position requires. You need to get into classes or training, or read books or search the Internet. Learn what it takes to work at home before quitting your job. If you expect to get paid what your worth, get educated. Don't let days, months, years, and even decades go by with a lot more of the same "wandering generality" mentality. If you're in a state of confusion, about what it takes to work at home, learn so you can make an educated decision.

Best Work at Home Businesses

2010-10-01T05:47:00.000-07:00

What are the best work at home businesses? Is any work at home business better than another? What makes a work at home business great?

These are just a few questions that come to mind of people when looking for a home based business. However, the fact remains that many people are in dire straits and need money immediately. If that's you, then the best thing to do is go get a real paying job, because most home based businesses are NOT quick fixes for money problems.

What I have found throughout the years of marketing on the Internet is that the majority of "get rich quick" work at home business opportunities are nothing but scams. If you're looking to make money fast, chances are that the opportunity you are considering is a scam. Why? Because the majority of individuals offering this type of opportunity knows your situation, you're desperate, and they pray on your emotions to make themselves rich. It's all about them and has nothing to do with your well being.

It's a known fact that desperate people take desperate measures in desperate times. And many people jump at those ridiculous "get rich quick" schemes. I guess a beautifully painted picture (even if it's only in your mind), of a rosy future, goes a long way to entice someone to join there business opportunity, even if it is a scam. An artist can can make a scam look like a beautiful business opportunity, but in the end, no matter how gorgeous it looks, it's still a scam.

So, what does make a work at home business great, or better yet, what does a great work at home business look like?

First off, a great work at home business has to have viable products and/or services; it cannot be based on money alone.

Money only businesses, like getting paid money when someone signs up under you and pays their money, are scams. However, if you get paid from a product or service sale, from a person you introduced, that is called a commission. Getting paid commissions on products or services that you are directly or indirectly involved with is legitimate.

Now if the person that bought that product, loved it so much that they wanted to sell the product on their own (by becoming a rep - personally sponsored by you) you would get paid a commission on the product, or service, sold by that rep. That "indirect" product or service sale is not just limited to the person you sponsored, but would also include a person(s) that your personally sponsored rep sponsored. And depending on the company's compensation plan, you could possibly get paid 6 or 7 levels down.

The scenario listed above is what most MLM (multi-level marketing) or network marketing businesses are all about. And, the majority of work at home businesses are network marketing businesses. Why? Because, it's the best way to earn a substantial amount of money. However, let me caution you about the money. If you do it strictly for the "money" and forget about helping others, you may find yourself with a lot of people in your organization, but without anyone doing a thing.

Live an Anti-Inflammatory Lifestyle?

2010-09-29T05:32:00.000-07:00

It has been stated by reliable sources that just about every person living has or will experience inflammation at one time or another. Stats are available from many different web sites to back up this statement. So, is it possible to live a life without suffering from the pain associated with inflammation?

I guess you would have to break down inflammation into two categories, good and bad inflammation to find the answer. Since, according to scientists and medical personnel, good inflammation is necessary. However, it's my understanding that it's the bad inflammation that causes all of the pain and suffering.

And who better to answer the question about inflammation and how you can live an anti-inflammatory lifestyle, but Brazos Minshew, Chief Science Officer for TriVita.

How To Lead An Anti–Inflammatory Lifestyle

Wellness is created in the way our immune system interacts with our environment – based on our genetics and modified by our behavior or lifestyle. Illness is really a disharmony produced by injury, toxins from inside or outside our body, deficiencies in vital elements like air, water, sleep and nutrients and emotional distress.

Sometimes we ask the wrong questions when we start to experience disharmony in our body. In effect, we ask, "What makes sick people sick?" As pertinent as that question is to a sick person, it is usually more productive to ask, "What keeps healthy people well – and how can I be one of them?"

Good inflammation?
Can inflammation really be good for you? Yes! For example, your body temperature is 98.6 F/37 C. We are able to maintain that warmth because of controlled, focused, balanced inflammation. We call this type of inflammation metabolism.

Our immune system also functions through focused inflammation. For example, "bad" bacteria are neutralized by inflammation from macrophages: critical elements of our immune system.

Bad inflammation
Four imbalances create disharmony in our immune system. They are:

Trauma or injury – Injured tissues first respond with beneficial inflammation. But if the inflammation becomes chronic, it will limit circulation by blood and lymph. Poor circulation allows waste created by the cells to accumulate, eventually becoming a toxic cesspool which can be the target for infection and disease.

Toxins from inside or outside of your body – Fat-soluble toxins and poisons from our environment may accumulate in our tissues and smolder for decades. These toxic tissues become chronically inflamed. Fatty tissues in our body such as our brain, liver and reproductive systems accumulate toxins and become the target for inflammation and disease.

Deficiencies in elements critical for life – Many people are deficient in oxygen though there is an abundance of air surrounding them. Oxygen deficiency causes acidic tissues; an acid body foments disease. Deficiencies in air, water, sunlight, sleep and nutrients are the most common causes of chronic inflammation.

The immune-suppressing scourge of emotional distress – Sustained emotional distress is a trigger for chronic inflammation. Actually, stress is also a known trigger for obesity and type 2 diabetes. Obesity causes more emotional distress and more chronic inflammation.

Your anti-inflammatory plan
We are made with the ability to respond to trauma, toxins, deficiency and stress with inflammation. Therefore, inflammation is not the enemy; however, runaway inflammation is definitely our enemy! Stop the domino effect of runaway inflammation before it starts by learning and living the 10 Essentials for Health and Wellness.

The simple act of breathing deeply can help reduce the impact of stress on your body. Oxygen also encourages an alkaline body; alkaline tissues are resistant to chronic illness.

Sleeping peacefully can also help reduce the impact of stress.

Exercise can ease the imbalance created by injury or trauma. Exercise may also make you less prone to future injury.

Reduce basic nutrient deficiencies by eating the appropriate servings of fruits and vegetables daily:

5 servings for children

7 servings for women

9 servings for men

Further "fill in the gaps" of nutrient deficiency by taking the Healthy Foundation program.

Help reduce the effects of many internal and external toxins with Nopalea™.

Ease the disturbances caused by emotional distress with anti-stress Adaptogen 10 Plus®.

A word about inflammation and disease
Once runaway inflammation is triggered, it follows an amazingly intricate course leading to catastrophe. Many of the disease processes are known to medical science, but many are not. One thing we know: stop runaway inflammation and health will improve! So, no matter what the "condition" is that is causing distress, reducing excess inflammation can help improve the way we feel.

According to many resources, inflammation is the one condition that lies at the root of your troublesome allergies, asthma, heart disease, and many types of cancer. It may be true what Hippocrates said, that "all disease is one." I just wonder if he was talking about inflammation?

If inflammation is the problem - Nopalea™ may be the solution.

Nopalea's Taste and Ingredients

2010-09-28T05:52:00.001-07:00

In a past TriVita Weekly Wellness Report, TriVita's Chief Science Officer, Brazos Minshew, answered questions regarding TriVita's newest product, Sonoran Bloom Nopalea. I've shared the majority of the questions in previous posts, and have written about the most common concerns regarding Nopalea.

You can read some of my previous posts by clicking on the links below:

Is it Safe to Take Nopalea with My Medications?
How much Nopalea should I take?
Water, Nopalea, and Your Health

One area not discussed up to this point is the taste of Nopalea, and what makes it taste so good? Many users of the product always comment of its taste. Even after holding several tasting parties, the one comment mostly shared is about the taste of Nopalea. How could something that is supposedly so good for you taste so good? IS it loaded with sugars? Does Nopalea use artificial sweeteners?

To answer those questions, I will leave it up to TriVita's Chief Science Officer once again.

Q: Does Nopalea contain any sugar, artificial sweeteners, colors or flavors?

A: No. The fruit of the Nopal cactus naturally tastes sweet. Agave has been added as well. Agave is a succulent cactus from the Sonora Desert that concentrates a syrup or nectar in its root. We juice the Nopal fruit and filter the Agave nectar as the chief ingredients in Nopalea. We have also added many other fruits and vegetables to enhance both the flavor and function of Nopalea.

Some of the vegetables we added to Nopalea have a slightly bitter taste to them. The sweet leaf Stevia cuts the bitterness completely! So, I use a microscopic amount of Stevia to neutralize the bitter notes.

There are natural colors in Nopalea. They are made from the skin of cherries because cherries have an intense red similar to Nopal fruit. There are also natural flavors in Nopalea. These are made by distilling the aromatic oils and phenolics (compounds that give plants their aroma and color) from the fruit. Seasonal harvests of Nopal fruit vary from year to year, but natural flavors and colors keep our product more consistent than many other natural products. With Nopalea, you always know what you are getting!

Seeing that Nopalea contains other ingredients other than the fruit of the nopal cactus, I decided to take a look at the other ingredients. So off to the Google I went. Since there was not a lot of information, I decided to just stick with Wikipedia (www.Wikipedia.com).

First we'll look at Agave nectar:

Agave nectar (also called Agave syrup) is a sweetener commercially produced in Mexico from several species of Agave, including the Blue Agave (Agave tequilana), Salmiana Agave (Agave salmiana), Green Agave, Grey Agave, Thorny Agave, and Rainbow Agave. Agave nectar is sweeter than honey, though less viscous. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agave_nectar)

Then we will look a Stevia.

Stevia is a genus of about 240 species of herbs and shrubs in the sunflower family (Asteraceae), native to subtropical and tropical regions from western North America to South America. The species Stevia rebaudiana, commonly known as sweetleaf, sweet leaf, sugarleaf, or simply stevia, is widely grown for its sweet leaves. As a sweetener and sugar substitute, stevia's taste has a slower onset and longer duration than that of sugar, although some of its extracts may have a bitter or licorice-like aftertaste at high concentrations.

With its extracts having up to 300 times the sweetness of sugar, stevia has garnered attention with the rise in demand for low-carbohydrate, low-sugar food alternatives. Medical research has also shown possible benefits of stevia in treating obesity and high blood pressure. Because stevia has a negligible effect on blood glucose, it is attractive as a natural sweetener to people on carbohydrate-controlled diets. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevia)

There has been some concern that Stevia may not be safe. However, after several scientific studies, the facts remain that "despite all of the scientific evidence, both positive and negative, no clear agreements have been drawn about the dangers of stevia."

"On the one hand, stevia has been in wide use in Japan for the past 30 years, and to date, no evidence of any adverse reactions have surfaced during this time." (http://safety.lovetoknow.com/Dangers_of_Stevia)

If you have any concerns regarding Nopalea, its ingredients, and is it safe, you should always contact your health professional or your medical doctor. I'm not a medical professional, or a scientist, nor do I profess to know all about this product. All I know is that regular users have been getting tremendous results, especially when it comes to fighting inflammation. And, I believe there is enough scientific evidence to back up that statement. All you have to do is do the research - DO NOT take my word for it.

Become Successful by Listening

2010-09-27T06:03:00.001-07:00

Why do most work at home businesses fail? Is it a lack of will power or desire? Is it a lack of knowledge of "business" or just the business that you're involved with? What about a burning desire to succeed, or the willingness to be coached? Do any of the items listed above have anything to do with the high rate of work at home failures?

I believe all of the items listed above can be the downfall of any home business. However, the one factor I believe that caused the most failures in work at home businesses is the failure to listen. Yes, you read that correctly, the failure to listen. You see the majority of people love to talk. They talk about themselves; they talk about their family; they talk about their business; they talk abut their products; and they talk about just about everything else that involves themselves.

In all actuality, what these people are doing is selling. What are they selling? They are selling themselves, their business, and their products. And you know what? Most people hate to be sold! People love to buy, but they hate to be sold. So, if you want to become successful with your work at home business, ask questions and listen.

There is a lot of wisdom in the previous paragraph, because very few people ask questions and then stop to listen to the other person's answer. However, if you find a successful work at home business owner I can almost guarantee you that that person is very good listener.

I received the following excerpt in an email this morning. I'd like to share it with you.

Will You Stop Talking Long Enough To Listen?

Have you ever been in the instance where you simply could not wait to blurt out what you wanted to say?

Have you ever wished you had said what you had said?

How many times have you gotten into an argument with someone, when neither person was listening to the other person?

Have you ever been in a discussion with someone, only to discover a little later, that both of you were actually saying the same thing?

"Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so"

There is a big difference between hearing and listening

Listening involves 3 processes:

Interpret: This is where you begin to take in the information and assess it. As you hear the information you begin to make judgments on what you hear. You begin to either agree or disagree on the information.
Evaluate: This is when you begin to determine what you will do with the information. Is it useful or not useful? How will you find the information if you find it useful?
React: This is where you have actually evaluated the information, and you have made a full determination of what you think about it. This is the most challenging of the 3 processes; because it is so much better to respond than to react.

There are 4 basic types of communication which people have:

Phatic: This is the "getting to know you" or the "building of relationships" kind of talk.
Cathartic: This is the release of "pent-up emotion" kind of talking. This is the spilling of emotional information, troubles, concerns, etc.
Informative: This is the sharing of information, ideas, or data.
Persuasive: This is used to reinforce information or ideas, or to change attitudes to produce a specific action.

"Our listening habits are not the result of training, but rather the lack of it"

Studies have shown that we spend about 45% of our waking hours listening.

It is interesting that we spend almost half of each day listening, yet it is one
of the least taught communication skills.

Tests have shown that immediately after hearing a 10-minute lecture, which was properly heard and understood:

Only one half of the information was retained
After 48 hours, only 25% is retained

This means that of all things listened to, only 25% will be understood and retained for any real time period.

Good listening habits can be taught, yet they seldom are.

Learn how to listen, and your life will take on great new meaning.

That email, courtesy of the fine folks at Help End Hunger Now, is great for any line of business. If you deal with people on a daily basis you need to know when to talk, when to ask questions, and when to listen. If you do not now how to listen, learn! Yes, you can learn how to listen, and I believe it is necessary to succeed in any business, especially a work at home business. Why? I mentioned it before: "Most people hate to be sold!" On the other hand, most people love to buy.

If your work at home business can get a person out of debt, or can make a person some extra money so they can purchase that new car or home, they will buy into your business. However, do not try to sell them, but rather ask the right questions, and then listen to their answers. When they give you their answer, ask another question, and once again, listen to their answer.

It may take some time to get used to this process; but, if you are persistent and you learn the skill of listening, your chances of becoming successful with your work at home business will greatly increase. If you learn the skill of listening together with asking the right questions, I believe you will be successful.

10 Ways to a Healthier Life Style and Weight Loss (part 3)

2010-09-25T22:37:00.000-07:00

10 Ways to a Healthier Life Style and Weight Loss (part 3)

Not only is sleep one of the ways to help regulate and balance your internal system, another way that goes hand in hand with sleeping well is relaxation. There are many ways to get your body and your mind to slow down the pace from the days events. You may have to do a little experimenting to find out what works well for you.

Some of the things that are helpful are soothing music, a warm/hot bath or shower, scents, focusing on things that have made you smile and things that you are thankful for. Sleeping in a cool, dark room and avoid caffeine, nicotine and alcohol late in the day. A quiet atmosphere may help too but I do know a couple of people who said they couldn’t get to sleep without the noise.

A daily routine helps. Try to get up and go to bed at the same time every day, even on the weekends. For the amount of sleep the average adult needs about 8-9 hours of shuteye each night.

So relaxation and sleep work well together. I will mention that while you sleep your body has the time it needs to repair and refresh itself. Sleep does have an impact on your emotional health. When you get enough sleep you will find that stress isn’t so stressful and you will find that you can deal with day to day issues better.

These little changes will make a huge impact on how well you feel and for those who want to lose weight will find they will be able to focus on their goals and reach them.

Recap. Relax, and get eight to nine hours of sleep each night.

TriVita - A work at Home Experinece

2010-09-15T04:32:00.001-07:00

From time to time people ask me what I do. Taking the low road, I usually say I'm a web designer and SEO strategist, even tough I love my TriVita business. So why would I not tell them about TriVita, and that I'm in a network marketing business? Like so many of us, I believe it's the fear of rejection. The fear of loosing a friend, or being accused of working some kind of a pyramid scheme. Whatever the case, bugging my friends to join me in business has never been a passion of mine.

So many individuals that have a work at home business bug their friends to death about joining them. I've seen plenty of relationships destroyed over network marketing, and I'm not about to join that group. However, after reading an article on Google, I may have to change my mind. Below is an excerpt of the article, which can be read in its entirety by going to, http://www.scamxposer.com/trivita-business-opportunity-reviews.html.

...How refreshing!

It took almost 50 years, but there actually is 1 Network Marketing business (well, Trivita is actually called "Cooperative Marketing") that has FINALLY figured it out!

ALL of the problems people have ever had with network marketing - MLM absolutely do NOT exist here!

You know... SIMPLE things like "where do I find a constant source of people hungry for the products?" -or- "I don't like talking to friends & family about my businesses" -or- "" can't figure out how to recruit anyone... or don't like recruiting period" -or- "I don't want to stock products at home" -or- "I never see long term residual income because 95% of my downline quits every year" -or- ... (fill in the blank with what you hate most about MLM)

With Trivita, you can build a consistent, reliable & huge RESIDUAL income entirely from home WITHOUT having to bug friends and family or have any sales or marketing skills whatsoever.

Not only is this a legitimate, highly profitable home based Internet business, but it is now my #1 recommended business opportunity... and the ONLY network marketing business that I currently recommend... and will probably EVER recommend!

WOW!!! That's some statement regarding TriVita, wouldn't you agree? I would have to say that TriVita, now with their anti-inflammatory, pain relief product, Sonoran Bloom Nopalea, has figured out the network marketing industry. They have created a work at home business model that cannot be beat. It's the only home business opportunity where you don't have to bug your family and friends. However, you can if you really want to show someone how to create a genuine work at home business, and create long term residual income.

I've been working this business for just over two years, and all it has done is continue to grow. And I have one gentleman in my upline whom stopped working the business for 7-8 months, came back only to find that his business has grown "exponentially." I don't think you can say that about many other network marketing businesses, of any at all. That is what TriVita is all about!

If you'd like to learn more about TriVita or Nopalea, call or email me. I'd love to share this terrific opportunity with you. I believe that TriVita is truly a work at home experience.

Work at Home Success

2010-09-13T13:14:00.001-07:00

When I think of people looking to work at home I typically think about their actual desires to do so. from my experience, I've found that many individuals tell you they want to work at home, but many have no idea what it takes to make that transition. So I have to ask the question, "Do they really have the desire, drive and fortitude to do what it takes to work from home?"

Desire alone will not get the job done. I can desire all day long that I want to be a professional football player, golfer, or tennis player, but if I do not put forth the effort, drive myself to be the best, and keep going when the muscles are aching, I will never make it.

Desire is more than wanting something; it's the will to do what it takes to become what you desire. And that's no different with a work at home business. If you want to become successful, with a work at home business, you have to have what it takes to overcome the pain and suffering when things are not going as planned.

Too often people quit before their, once sought after, desire fizzles out. Why? Fortitude! The willingness to stay the course when things get really tough; the guts to hang in even though others are telling you it's time to get a job; and the courage to continue moving towards your goals when the money is not coming in as expected. That's what fortitude is all about.

Another thing that comes to my mind is discipline! Do you have the discipline to be able to work from home? It's so easy to get distracted by all the things that need to be done around the house. However, to become successful, one has to have the discipline to avoid those distractions and stay focused on the task at hand. Now I'm not saying there aren't important household tasks that need to be taken care of, because all of us have them. And I know there are certain chores that need to be done on a daily basis.

What I'm talking about is the work that needs to be done to build your business. You need to be focused on that and that only, like calling leads, making sales calls, giving business presentations, and helping others in your organization. Unless you're an extraordinary multi-tasker, all distractions must be eliminated. Working to build your home business is the key, busy work does not count.

This holds true for any type of work at home business, including Mary Kay, Tupperware, Arbonne, Amway, TriVita, MonaVie, Send Out Cards, Herbalife, Melaleuca, or the like. Building one of these businesses does not happen overnight, and it's certainly not going to happen by NOT dong the work.

If you have the desire, drive and fortitude, you can build a successful work at home business. However, staying the course, and avoiding distractions is a point of paramount significance.

If you'd like to learn more about a work at home business opportunity that offers terrific benefits and one that is easy to learn, contact me.

10 Ways to a Healthier Life Style and Weight Loss (part 1)

There are many, many clinical studies that show that just a few changes in our daily habits can help us feel better, be healthier, and if we need to, lose weight in the process. This list I will share with you is a few ideas that a person can change in their lifestyle so that they will feel better and look healthier.

I don’t expect a person to drop all these bad habits all at once. Just pick out two or three and if that is too much then one at a time should be fine. As long as you are continuing to move forward, one step at a time, to achieve this healthier lifestyle, or weight loss goal by eliminating these bad habits.

Wanting to lose weight or becoming healthy is not out of your reach. One of the things that has helped me in the past is to put up a positive picture where you can see it, so as to remind you of where you want to be or write down your goals and why you want to reach that goal and then put it up somewhere so you can see it daily and add to it especially when you notice things happening and then you can be reminded of where you are headed on this road to a healthier you.

Work at Home Success

2010-09-10T19:03:00.001-07:00

Recently I wrote an article about starting a work at home business to create prosperity on the web. In my article I mentioned that anything worthwhile (especially a home business) takes time, dedication, and hard work.

The same day I wrote that article and submitted it to Google, I received a newsletter from one of my online friends. In the newsletter there was a story titled, There Are 3 Kinds of People. I thought it was important enough for anyone attempting to work from their home that I thought I would share the story in its entirety.

The story is courtesy of the Symbiotic Givers (individuals making things happen, rather then wondering what happened).

"There Are 3 Kinds of People"

Which one are you?

People who make things happen
People who watch things happen
People who wonder what happened

The people who make things happen internalize what it will be like, when the thing to be done has been accomplished. These people tend to talk less and show more by their results.

The people who watch things happen internalize fear. This fear and lack of action makes them a watcher. The playing it safe thought process guarantees that they will only get the crumbs of life, that are left over from everyone else. These people tend to talk more and analyze everything. They always talk about how they would do it differently if it were them. The big problem here is that it never is them; because all they ever do is watch.

The people who wonder what happened internalize their own confusion. Since it is easier for them to just act confused; rather than find out the who, what, where, and why of an occurrence. They never get to really enjoy the sweet feeling of personal accomplishment and becoming all that you can become. These people talk the most. They engage their mouths and let their lips flap away; and then they engage their brain after the fact. Usually the only way these people could say less would be by talking more.

Focus on results and forget the excuses

People of results do not have or accept excuses. Either it got done or it did not get done.

'Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good'

So, have you decided what type of person you are? If not, you may want to take a deep accounting of your self, your life successes, you life's challenges, and your life's failures. What caused each one of these things to take place?

Chances are really good that if your work at home business is successful, or you're on the path to success, you make things happen. And it would be my guess that yu don't wait for things to happen.

On the other hand, if you're struggling, I would submit to your that you are probably just doing busy work. This is the work that does not accomplish anything other than keeping you away from the things that are important, and will put you on the path to success.

As mentioned previously, it takes hard work to build a successful work at home business. However, working hard is NOT busy work, BUT rather the tough work that needs to be done in order to be successful.

The success of your work at home business can only come from YOU! Don't rely on your family, friends, sponsor, or anyone else to build your home business. Don't sit around watching things happen, because NOTHING is going to happen unless you make things happen. And most importantly, stop wondering what happened to my business or what will happen to my business? Nobody has ever succeeded by wondering, what if.

If you plan on being successful with your work at home business, start making things happen. If you don't know where to start, or you don't have a work at home business, contact me. I'll give you some action steps, or show you my TriVita business!

Sublingual B-12

2010-09-09T22:38:00.000-07:00

The best Sublingual B-12 just got a
whole lot better!
<P>
Our new Super Sublingual B-12 contains 300% more vitamin B-12 than our original formula for more energy and quick results. We’ve also added ginseng for improved mental function and concentration. And it’s all delivered by Dr. Libby’s original, patented delivery system for maximum absorption.

Super Sublingual B-12 helps you:

* Enjoy sustained mental energy, stamina and alertness
* Gain greater mental focus, clarity and concentration
* Lift your mood and achieve a greater sense of well-being.

Our doctor-formulated B-12 provides the same benefits of a B-12 shot… at a fraction of the cost.

B-12 deficiency can sometimes result in more than a lack of energy
With all the hectic demands of today, most people could use more energy. However, if you consistently experience exhaustion, irritability, forgetfulness or brain fog, it may be a sign of something more serious. In fact, any of these conditions could be a sign of B-12 deficiency.

Every “body” can lose B vitamins
There are many things in today’s world that can lead to a B vitamin deficiency. Stress is one cause. It comes in many forms – mental, physical, emotional and environmental – and it creates a demand for Vitamin B-12 within the body that’s greater than what a typical diet can supply. Similarly, certain prescription medications can cause Vitamin B-12 depletion just as easily as stress.

Diets can also lead to a deficiency in the B-12 vitamin. Most people get their B-12 vitamins from animal food products, so vegetarians and those with nutritionally poor diets greatly increase their chances of being deficient. Digestion problems are yet another cause of B-12 deficiencies. Gastric bypass surgeries, gastric reflux, IBS, colitis and other digestive conditions inhibit the body’s absorption of B-12 from foods. On top of this, your body’s ability to absorb B vitamins can start as early as age 40 and dramatically decrease every passing year.

Because there are so many ways to become Vitamin B-12 deficient, it’s important to aggressively help protect against and/or repair a deficiency by taking TriVita Super Sublingual B-12 daily.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea

2010-09-09T05:03:00.000-07:00

I've been asked this question several time: "Are there any side effects and/or any known conflicts with prescription medication?"

Not being a healthcare professional, or a medical doctor, I cannot answer that question. However, from my research, I have yet to find a person suffering any side effects from drinking Sonoran Bloom Nopalea. I have also found that since Nopalea is an all natural product, there are no currently known side effects, on its own, and/or with prescription drugs.

DISCLAIMER: I an NOT a medical doctor or healthcare professional, nor to I portray myself as such. ALWAYS check with your family doctor or healthcare professional before taking any nutritional supplement.

In a recent TriVita newsletter, Brazos Minshew, TriVita's Chief Science Officer, answered the question, "Is it safe to take Nopalea with my medications?" this way:

"There are no known conflicts between Nopalea and medications. Nopalea contains natural ingredients and its main ingredient is derived from the fruit of the Nopal cactus (Opuntia ficus indica) from the Sonora Desert. It is low calorie and low carbohydrate, so it must be calculated as any other food in your total dietary intake of these macronutrients."

"Some of the older blood thinners are more easily adjusted if a person is not eating vegetables or fruit or drinking juices during the 'calibration' phase. Your doctor or pharmacist will give you specific instructions if this pertains to you."

"Always ask your health care team if you are in doubt or have questions. However, TriVita's Medical Advisory Board has examined Nopalea closely. In general, there are no known conflicts between Nopalea and medications."

Weight Loss Pills

2010-08-15T20:02:00.000-07:00

Health and Wellness - Weight Loss Pills

When looking for the best weight loss pill available in the market nowadays, you can consult your doctor or drop by a drugstore and ask a pharmacist. Whatever type you choose, remember that the best weight loss pill should be able to help you lose those unwanted pounds with very little or no side effects.

The best weight loss pill groups can be divided into the following categories: prescribed or over-the-counter.

1. Prescribed weight loss pills are clinically tried and tested to produce results that they claim to provide to users. These are also approved by medical organizations to ensure that the drug really works according claims. Their side effects are known and studied. Furthermore, they are usually given to those who are suffering from severe weight problems like obesity.

2. Over-the-counter weight loss pills are those you can buy directly from the drugstore or your local pharmacy. Some of them are generic, which you should be careful in taking because some have excessive amounts of toxins that can be harmful to the body. OTC weight loss pills do not support their claims. It is highly recommended to purchase OTC weight loss drugs that are popular or have known success rates among those who have used it.

Natural ingredients

Perhaps one of the biggest misconceptions in weight loss is that natural and herbal ingredients are entirely safe. Keep this in mind when buying the best weight loss pill. Ephedra is an example of a popular “natural” fat burning ingredient until the FDA found them to be dangerous to the heart and the nervous system.

The action

Judge a weight loss pill based on what it can do to hasten weight loss. There are several types of weight loss pills like fat blockers, fat burners, and appetite suppressants. All of these can be in the form of prescription drugs, OTC drugs, or even from natural ingredients.

1. Fat burners – these types of weight loss pills effectively help the body in breaking down fats coming from food intake. Once the fat cells release the fat, it enters the bloodstream in the form of free acids that will go to muscle cells where they are going to be burned.

2. Appetite suppressants – these are very popular because they take away your desire to eat to prevent you from unnecessary bingeing and overeating. Examples of prescribed appetite suppressants are Phentermine, Acomplia, and Meridia.

3. Fat blockers – these gained popularity among users because they are safer and have healthier effects compared to other weight loss drugs. Popular examples of this type are Alli, Chitosan, Proactol, and Xenical. Fat blockers prevent fat from affecting lipase enzymes that are responsible for absorbing fats from food intake. However, side effects include diarrhea, oily stool, and abdominal discomfort.

Nopalea-What is it?

2010-08-13T17:21:00.000-07:00

Nopalea, pronounced (No-pah lay-uh) is derived from the Nopal cactus plant in the Sonoran desert.

This amazing Nopalea Cactus is known for its beautiful vivid pink blooms, bright red fruit and paddle-like leaves. Nopalea is highly plentiful in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona and its striking plants produce healthy, organic fruit.

The native Sonorans have tapped into the medicinal power of the Nopalea plant for thousands of years. It is just now that we, across the world can obtain the healing properties of the Nopal cactus for ourselves.

TriVita's best selling Nopalea drink is a unique blend of antioxidant rich nutrients, concentrated for easy consumption.

Naturally sweet, from the Agave nectar and a pleasant mix of beneficial nutrients, even the kids like this drink and it is safe for them as well. The fresh ingredients of the Nopalea cactus are carefully harvested from the Sonoran Desert and immediately bottled to deliver scientifically proven health benefits for young and old alike. The ingredients of Nopalea are unique only to their species, bearing forth rare and potent antioxidants called betalains

Betalains are a rare class of antioxidants found in extremely high concentrated levels in the Nopal cactus fruit.

The Benefits of TriVita B12

2010-08-13T07:22:00.000-07:00

Our bodies require vitamin B for our brains to properly function. As we age, the vitamin B reserves begin to deplete, giving us premature aging and often sickness in various forms. We can bring our Vitamin B levels back up to where they should be with all natural supplements, such as Trivita B12.

Vitamin B12 is naturally found in animal products, including fish, poultry, meat, eggs, milk, as well as dairy products.

High fiber breakfast cereals provide a readily available source of Vitamin B12. But we often do not consume enough of the available foods, such as fish and protein rich chicken, and therefore we should daily supplement with all natural TriVita B12.

The TriVita Sublingual B-12 will increase your energy levels, reducing the mid-afternoon crash that accompanies energy drinks and high sugar intake. TriVita B12 will stabilize your emotional well being, restore your mental clarity and provide necessary nutritional support. Do you suffer from depression, insomnia, irritability, stress and chronic headaches?

Then Trivita Sublingual B-12 is right for you! Order your box of tasty dissolvable tablets today and enhance your overall well being.

Sonoran Bloom Nopalea

2010-08-12T05:48:00.001-07:00

TriVita's Nopalea is known to reduce inflammation and relieve the pain that comes with it. However, there are certain guidelines that must be followed for Nopalea to be effective. One such guideline is the amount, or daily dose, of Nopalea one should consume for it to have the greatest impact.

Although all human bodies are different, according to TriVita's scientists, there MUST be a loading phase to first quench the inflamed areas in your body. It's proven that this loading phase is the most important part in reducing inflammation. That's why TriVita makes it step one in the inflammation fighting process.

In TriVita's recent Weekly Wellness Report, Mr. Brazos Minshew, TriVita's Chief Science Officer, answers the question, "How much Nopalea should I take?" this way:

"That depends. How much inflammation do you have inside you? You can't put out a forest fire with a single pail of water. You can't break the cycle of inflammation with a single serving of Nopalea."

"We need to meet the level of inflammation in our body with an equivalent force of anti-inflammatory Betalains from Nopalea. We must quench inflammation with a Nopalea Loading Phase (NLP)."

"When taking Nopalea for the first time, drink 3 to 6 ounces, twice daily for the first 30 days. Then, use your intuition to judge how much Nopalea you should continue to take. Do you feel like you need more? Then take more! Do you feel that the cycle of runaway inflammation has resolved? Reduce it to the amount you crave (usually 1 to 3 ounces daily). Let your body decide!"

As mentioned before, all human bodies are different, and it's your body that will decide how much Nopalea needs to be consumed to be the most effective. Since fighting inflammation is an on going problem, it's very important, in my opinion, to continue to use Nopalea, even after the initial loading phase. Let your body be the judge.

I received a call late last week from a new user of Nopalea, and here is what he had to say: "Since I've started taking Nopalea I feel better, and I have less cravings. I believe this 'cactus juice' is the first product I've taken that has actually worked. I've ordered a 4-pack and I plan to share it with a friend of mine."

Weight Loss

2010-08-11T19:51:00.000-07:00

Weight loss is not easy for a lot of people and finding time to exercise is sometimes just not possible. Most people are so busy in their day to day life that having the time for a good healthy meal is out of the question. When you go to the store to buy for your weight loss diet the first place we tend to go is to the frozen food section to get them ‘healthy’ TV dinners that are loaded with all kinds additives and preservatives which are not any good for our bodies.

Our bodies work better when we eat natural foods that God has given us, foods directly from the garden or second best would be frozen or dried. Going to a Farmers Market is a good place to get fresh produce but you need to know your vender who sells the products to make sure that they are growing off of their land and if they use any kind of sprays on their produce.

Our bodies break down the foods we eat for fuel which in turn gives us energy and helps everything function properly. I hear a lot of people say that they eat good most of the time but occasionally eat fast food or convenience foods that are easy to pop into the microwave because of time limitations. Wouldn’t you think eating good and healthy most of the time is going to x out the bad food right? This is how I explain it, every time you stop to gas up your car put 1 gallon of sugar water in your tank, it won’t be long before your car starts to run rough and not perform right for you. This is the same situation for our body, if you continue to put less than best into this vehicle that we are given to run around in, this body will start running rough and it will break down. Unless they figure out how to replace this body without all the trouble associated with that, until then we need to take care of what we have.

The fact is losing weight is not about dieting, it's about nutrition. If you put nutrition in your body it can do remarkable things. I know personally. I have watched my body heal and felt the difference in the energy level just by taking care of it. You need to eat the foods that have the right nutrition to fuel your body and it will thank you by the results you will experience and that in it self will keep you encouraged to stay on track.

Exercise is a great way to lose that weight and you do not need to kill yourself doing it. Walking or riding a bicycle is a great way to keep your body’s metabolism up. The weather is no factor because all you need is a treadmill, stationary bike or you could even walk in place for 15 to 30 minutes a day. You can exercise in your home or office.

Weight Loss Facts

2010-08-09T17:39:00.000-07:00

Health and Wellness - Weight Management Fact and Fiction

Knowing the truth about losing weight can help you separate what works from what doesn’t. Don’t be taken in by expensive wieght-loss fads like pills, herbs, and special foods. There’s no magic way to lose weight. If you have questions about weight loss, ask your health care provider.

Fiction: “The faster I lose weight, the better.”

Fact: Rapid weight loss is usually due to loss of water or muscle mass. What you are trying to get rid of it extra fat. Aim to lose one-half to 2 pounds a week. Then you’re more likely to lose fat rather than water or muscle.

Fiction: “Skipping meals will help me lose weight.”

Fact: When you skip meals, you don’t give your body the energy it needs to work. Hunger makes you more likely to overeat later on. It’s best to spread your meals throughout the day. Eat at least 3 meals a day.

Sorry to say there are no magic bullets.

There is one tried and true strategy however.

The internet is filled these days with promotions for diets, quick weight loss items, Hoodia, ephedra etc. etc. etc. The list goes on and on.

Some of these products may even work for you. But what I know is the secret to dieting and weight loss is to watch what you put in your mouth.

If you consume 2000 calories and expend only 600 you have an excess. It isn’t rocket science. That extra portion of supper, that donut at mid morning, that soft drink and candy bar in the afternoon. They all add to the caloric intake.

While it isn’t rocket science it is very hard. You have to be in the right frame of mind, you have to have support, you have to be ready and want to watch what you eat.

Without that you are wasting time, effort and money. So the first thing you need is a plan and the commitment to lose weight. Once you have that your success is not far behind.

Weight Loss

2010-08-06T05:59:00.001-07:00

According to some sources, between $33 billion and $55 billion is spent annually on weight loss products and services, including medical procedures and pharmaceuticals, with weight loss centers garnering between 6 percent and 12 percent of total annual expenditure. About 70 percent of Americans' dieting attempts are of a self-help nature. Although often short-lived, these diet fads are a positive trend for this sector as Americans ultimately turn to professionals to help them meet their weight loss goals.

However, sometimes "professional help" doesn't always mean physical trainers. It can also mean taking advice from professionals within the weight loss industry. People like Brazos Minshew, TriVita's Chief Science Officer. Mr. Minshew as been studying weight loss, and obesity for several years, and has written many articles about both. Below is one such article, which I have posted in its entirety.

The obesity epidemic: Why girth rates continue to increase
The prevalence of overweight and obesity is increasing at an alarming rate all over the world, particularly in developed countries such as the U.S. In the October 9, 2002 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association(JAMA), data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that 31% of adults in the U.S. were obese in the year 2000 compared to 14.4% in 1980.

According to the CDC, about 15% of children and adolescents were overweight in 2000 – triple what the proportion was in 1980.

Defining overweight and obese
The common definition for being overweight or obese may not make much sense to most people. Obesity is defined as having a body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to 30. Overweight is defined as having a BMI of 25–29.9. So, what is BMI exactly?

BMI is a measure of body fat based on height and weight. It is calculated by dividing body weight in kilograms by height in meters squared. That's a lot of math! To make it easier, use our online BMI calculator:

Click here to access the BMI calculator.
Once on the page, click on "Body Mass Index."
Enter your height (in feet and inches) and your weight (in pounds). The program will automatically calculate your BMI and explain the results.

Health risks associated with obesity
In December 2001, the U.S. Surgeon General warned that obesity could soon kill more Americans than tobacco smoke. Imagine this: With all of the advances we have made in hygiene, nutrition and disease control, the generation living now is the first in U.S. recorded history with a shorter life expectancy than their parents. We are killing ourselves and our children with the habits that lead to obesity.

What's behind the epidemic?
Why such large and extensive increases in obesity? Data collected from around the world show that different environmental and cultural conditions contribute to obesity in urban and rural populations.

Experts believe that rising rates of obesity among children and adults may be attributed to a combination of the following:

Increasingly sedentary activities such as:

Watching TV
Using a computer
Driving long distances (for example, commuting)
Working long hours at sedentary jobs

Conveniences which reduce physical activity (think "drive-through" banking)
Lack of safe playgrounds for children
Increased consumption of soft drinks and other "market-driven" factors that encourage overeating, such as:

Larger portion sizes in restaurants
Increased sizes of individual food items (such as soft drinks, candy bars, bagels)
Increased prevalence of vending machines
Greater number of food choices
Pervasive marketing of high-calorie foods
Marketing strategies that encourage ordering larger serving sizes

Emotional overeating, triggered by increased stress
Repeated dieting
Greater acceptance of obesity in certain cultural groups
Girth control in a complex world

Although a number of complex cultural and environmental factors contribute to the obesity epidemic, in the majority of cases, the equation is basic: too many calories consumed and too few calories expended (too little activity) leads to obesity. The Leanology® Weight Loss System is designed to encourage people to achieve and maintain a healthful body weight by development of habits known to produce lifetime weight control.

Moreover, Leanology creates the best possible opportunity for true wellness by confirming the benefits of nutrients and nurturing for weight management and all of life's challenges. ***END of ARTICLE***

If your weight puts you in the overweight or obese category, it's time for some lifestyle changes. The three most important parts of loosing weight and keeping it off is, a healthful diet, fitness and activity, and motivation and inspiration. In order for these to be effective, it takes effort on your part. None of these things are going to happen without you first taking action. A reduced calorie diet and activity are a part of any healthy weight loss program.

According to some sources, between $33 billion and $55 billion is spent annually on weight loss products and services, including medical procedures and pharmaceuticals, with weight loss centers garnering between 6 percent and 12 percent of total annual expenditure. About 70 percent of Americans' dieting attempts are of a self-help nature.

Fighting Inflammation

2010-08-04T21:17:00.000-07:00

I have been reading a lot about inflammation and what it can do to a body. I know there are a lot of people out there that suffer from it and there are those who do not even know they do and most of them end up going to the doctor and trying to fight the pain with drugs. Inflammation does not and is not suppose to be handled this way it can be taken care of with natural herbs.

Doing a search on Google for inflammation you will find that a lot people that hear the word 'inflammation' think of the swelling and redness that accompanies an injury such as a sprained ankle. However, inflammation can also be systemic and caused not by injury but by lack of exercise and a poor diet, I never heard of this but as I was reading all of this I realized that this was talking about me. As I read on it said Systemic inflammation increases the risk of cancer, hypertension, heart disease, gastrointestinal problems, and many other health conditions.

In fact, many anti-aging professionals believe that inflammation is the greatest cause of premature aging, so preventing it is also vital for looking young. Taking on an exercise program is one key to decreasing systemic inflammation, and the other key is to consume a diet that does not promote inflammation.

Arthritis, another form of inflammation, is a chronic disease, which means that you can't completely escape from it by using only medication and other traditional treatments. However, there are some home remedies for arthritis that are considered excellent alternatives because they safe to use, and quite effective.

I do not have arthritis but I do have pain in my back and upper legs due to two surgeries that I had over the summer and I have I have found out that I am not getting the proper exercise. My diet is good. I do eat foods like fresh fruits, vegetables, and fish, especially ones high in omega-3 essential fatty acids that are loaded with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Here is how I am going to fight inflammation.

I have found a product from Trivita called TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea. I will keep my websites and blogs up to date on how everything is going. This is what I know about TriVita's Sonoran Bloom Nopalea.

Nopalea™ (No--pah lay' uh) blends antioxidant-rich Nopal cactus superfruit with naturally sweet Agave nectar to bring you a deliciously unique concentrated wellness drink. Harnessing the power of betalains, a rare and powerful class of antioxidants that flourishes in the Nopal fruit, Nopalea delivers scientifically proven health benefits.

When you drink Sonoran Bloom Nopalea™, you take these betalains into your system, where they begin to restore your vitality on a cellular level. By helping the body reduce the toxins surrounding your cells and enabling essential nutrients to reach each cell, the betalains in Nopalea can reduce the inflammation in your body that leads to disease.

Vitamin D and Sunlight

2010-07-26T05:36:00.000-07:00

After writing several articles on Vitamin D and the effects of being vitamin D deficient, I've learned a lot about this all important vitamin. However, it seems that every time a new study and/or report about vitamin D comes out I learn something new. Suffice to say that's no different with Mr. Brazos Minshew's latest TriVita Wellness Report article.

I've included the article in its entirety. I hope you read it and have a chance to learn more about vitamin d.

Keeping Skin Healthy & Glowing by Brazos Minshew, TriVita's Chief Science Officer

"I'm tired of all this nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep. That's deep enough. What do you want, an adorable pancreas?"
- Jean Kerr

Beautiful outside, beautiful inside?
Who doesn't want beautiful skin - especially as we age? Our outside layer of skin often reflects the health of our internal organs, as we discussed in the Weekly Wellness Report on "Liver Spots."

For instance, skin hydration relies on glucosamine just as joint hydration relies on glucosamine. So, dry skin likely means dry joints. Skin that is easily torn and damaged indicates rapid aging, which likely indicates rapid aging of our circulatory system. Furthermore, skin that is easily burned by the sun may indicate that our essential fatty acid (EFA) and antioxidant reserves are low which means other tissues that rely on antioxidants and EFA for protection may also be at risk.

Therefore, beautiful skin is a good indicator of healthy reserves of critical nutrients.

Inside first...
As we age, we are likely to experience skin that wrinkles and becomes blotchy. It may start to get pigment spots and become easy to injure. There are many products and procedures you can use to help your skin from the outside and those are important. But more important is nourishing the skin from the inside.

Skin has a base of healthy fats. Most of the external emollients we use on our skin are some form of fat. However, humans are not designed to take in fats very efficiently through the skin. The best way to have a healthy base for your skin is to take OmegaPrime essential fatty acids. Two per day is good, but for skin health, more is better!

From the outside...
There is a huge industry that provides cleansers, peels and emollients for the outside of your skin. Use of skin treatments is important only after you have been nourished from the inside. Then your skin will have beauty long after the makeup has been removed. Dr. Libby's Vital C Powdered Crystals are perfect for your weekly beautiful skin routine. Try this natural deep moisturizer treatment and skin exfoliant:

Add 1/4 teaspoon of Vital C Crystals to your daily skin moisturizer and mix thoroughly.
Liberally apply the cream to your face and neck, massaging gently.
Leave on for 10 minutes.
Wash off completely with warm water; follow with a splash of cold water to close your pores.
Your skin should have a lovely glow!

Sunlight and Vitamin D
The skyrocketing incidence of diabetes, osteoporosis and certain cancers definitely say that we are not getting enough Vitamin D. The increase in insomnia and seasonal depression tells us that we are not getting enough early morning sun.

We need more sunlight. Now, how do we make it safe?

Recognize the need for sun and the need for caution. Plan your sun exposure so that you maximize the benefits while minimizing the risks. For instance, get your sunlight early in the day. Early morning sunlight does not have the high ultra-violet intensity that midday sun does. So, take a 20-minute walk in the early part of the day with your skin exposed to sunlight. This will give you the benefits without the risks of over-exposure.
Alternately, take a 20-minute walk in the evening with your skin exposed to sunlight. There are fewer UV rays in the evening than at midday, though more than in the morning. This will have a less dramatic effect than morning sun but will still provide you with many of the same benefits.
Never expose your skin to midday sun for long periods of time. Wear clothing that covers most of your skin and wear a hat that provides shade for your face and ears.
Certain nutrients work well to protect against sun damage:

Essential fatty acids interact with Vitamin D in your skin to create a bulwark of protection against harmful radiation.
Vitamin C quenches smoldering fires of oxidative stress once they have begun.
Antioxidants, such as green tea (Energy Now!) and those found in berries (Adaptogen 10 Plus) can help protect against DNA damage from radiation.
All these are excellent strategies for dealing with the stress of too much sun.

What about sunscreen?
The discussion about sunscreen is full of heated rhetoric. The first thing I will say about using sunscreen is that it is completely up to you: it's your choice! I would also point out that people have lived outdoors for thousands of years without serious risk from sun exposure. The increase in skin cancer risk came about as a "perfect storm" of severely polluted air, a low antioxidant/nutrient diet and the 40-year tanning craze that followed World War II.

The truth is that more people die of cancer related to Vitamin D deficiency than of skin cancer caused by sunburn. Again, get some morning and evening sunshine for good health, never get a sunburn and keep your skin covered when you are exposed to midday sun. Beyond these recommendations, do what seems reasonable to you!

Total health
The health of our skin can tell us much about the health of our entire body. We naturally desire that "healthy glow" and beautiful skin. And that makes sense, doesn't it? We have a tool to assess our internal health immediately at our disposal: our skin. All we have to do is learn to listen to the message of healthy skin!

In one of my previous articles, Vitamin D - Protector from Cancer, is stated that "nine out of 10 Americans are deficient in vitamin D. Furthermore, it's been documented many times that even people who spend plenty of time in the sun can still lack this vital inflammation fighter. This is becoming more and more serious because inflammation is a major cause of heart and brain attacks, high blood pressure, joint pain, bone loss, digestive problems, blood sugar imbalances and a host of other serious health problems."

So, not only is vitamin D important to help ward off cancer, but it's also a proven inflammation fighter. Some medical studies have even found that inflammation is one of the major causes of cancer. Now I'm not a medical doctors, so don't take my word for it; do your own research.

Health and Wellness - How To lose Weight

Summer’s here! Grilling out. Beer by the lake. Outdoor concerts. Lots of opportunities for guys to take their shirts off and for girls to wear short-shorts. Yeah – how’s that gonna work for ya? You’ve probably got a dozen different ways of how to cook steak – but not one best way to lose abdominal weight. And you know what? It’s easier than you think.

The exercises to lose weight quickly are NOT those 90-day boot camp things advertised on TV. But they aren’t all those machines and gizmos either. And if you’re thinking “what about foods that can help me lose weight?” The truth is: EVERY food can help you lose weight – OR gain it.

So what are you supposed to do? How can you get in shape for summer?

1. Start now. Cutting weight is for boxers, wrestlers, and people kicked off The Ultimate Fighter.

2. Get in shape with knowledge. Look, just because some B list movie star can get a magazine cover shape with 3 trainers and 8 hours of exercise a day doesn’t mean you can. BUT you CAN get that shape a lot easier if you do it with knowledge (seriously. Don’t you think you’re smarter than those yahoos anyway?).

3. Approach it comprehensively. What you eat ties in with how you exercise ties in with how you work ties in with your emotions… So get an approach that recognizes this, and doesn’t try to cram all your fitness into 5 meals and 10 minutes of exercise a day.

Health and Wellness - How To lose Weight

People spend so much time and effort to find supposedly the best fast weight loss diets, so they could lose weight successfully and live a better life. But every person that wants to, sees that diets are not very effective at all. For some reason we are lead to believe, that diets are the answer to weight loss, so no-one even bothers to question, if that is true or not.

A ordinary person has the idea that, if he or she wants to lose weight, then a calorie deficit is needed. Eating less food is the best way to create that needed deficit and that is somewhat true. But if we take a closer look, then we can cracks in this theory.

Most diets out there, that are supposedly the best because they make people lose weight fast, require people to cut their calorie drastically and to very low levels. Which can be as low as 800 or less calories for women and 1500 or less calories for men.

Now every time that calories are reduced drastically fast weight loss will occur, so in that sense diets do work very well. But as you know this fast weight loss, does not last very long. There are very good reasons, why it does not last.

If you starve yourself with diets to lose weight, then your body can not separate a diet from starvation. They are both the same, so the response is also the same. This means fat burning hormones and enzymes decrease, fat storing enzymes and hormones increase, the metabolism slows down, hunger increases etc. All of these things happen, because your body is trying to protect you from starving yourself to death.

Although diets do work temporarily, they can´t work successfully in the long-term. It is impossible to out smart the body, so there really is no best fast weight loss diets, that work. I believe that everyone, including you, wants permanent results and permanent results, can´t be achieved with temporary methods.

Health and Wellness - How To lose Weight

Why exactly do you want to lose weight? There are tons of motivations why people want to get rid of their excess pounds – what is your motivation? What is motivating you to seek out information to lose weight quickly? You are reading this for a reason that’s personal to you. You didn’t “happen” to stumble upon this article accidentally. So, let me try to help you.

Did you make a New Year’s Resolution to lose weight this year? Maybe you started off pumped up, focused, like “Yeah, THIS time I’m really gonna do it, finally.” You start envisioning what you’re going to look like after you’ve lost your weight, new smaller sized clothes you can buy, or just being able to fit into those clothes gathering dust in your closet. But….it didn’t last.

Maybe you’re one of us that realize that time is running out before the warm weather hits. “Crap! I can’t wear sweats to the beach! I love summer, but my body’s not ready – there’s no way I can fit into my summer clothes right now – help!” I need to lose weight and I need to lose it NOW!!

Do you have a wedding just around the corner and you want to lose those last 5, 10 or whatever pounds? Could be you have a social gathering, or some special function coming up that you want to look and feel your most desirable.

One of my reasons is that my 60-something metabolism is slowing down and what used to work to lose weight, not so much now. I also want to change my eating habits that turn into a ‘lifestyle’ and not a succession of yo-yo or fad diets to achieve my weight loss goals. And I definitely don’t want something “fussy” – who has time for that?

Do you need to find something to jump start your metabolism, naturally, too – no matter your age or gender?

I’ve only mentioned a few of the “vanity” (yes, I admit I’m vain – I wanna look good and feel good) reasons for losing weight. Each person has their own, personal, motivating factors as to why they want to get rid of – dare I say it – that ugly, nasty, body fat that stares at us in the not-so-friendly mirror.

There are real, serious health reasons to want to lose weight, too. That would be a whole new article and then some. Even at the simplistic level, an extra 5 lbs puts an enormous amount of stress on your bones and joints:

"Being overweight, even just moderately, impacts weightbearing joints and can increase the pain of arthritis. Research has shown that during walking the hips, knees, and ankles bear three to five times a person’s total body weight. For every pound a person is overweight, three to five pounds of extra weight is added to each knee during walking. In contrast, a ten pound weight loss causes 30 to 50 pounds of extra stress to be relieved from the joints. " (http://arthritis.about.com/cs/diet/a/extrapounds.htm)

Don’t you too, want to lose weight fast – have more energy… better your health…learn how to burn fat better…and just feel better about yourself? After a lot of research, I’m getting ready and excited to start a journey that’s going to help me and a lot of you reach our weight loss goals – finally! Think you can do it?

Health and Wellness - Resolving Obesity Problem

The Increasing rate of obesity is a becoming a worldwide problem. We are constantly surrounded by advertisements for fast food restaurants and to buy food that will eventually kill us. The sad fact is that the USA is the fattest country. Like you and most Americans we would like to be healthy, slim and live a long productive life.

There are a steps that you can do everyday to lose that unwanted weight that you don’t want or need. Here are 4 steps that you can do to rid that excess weight.

1. Eat a low calorie diet~stay away from fast food, i know its amazing and it taste so so good, but it is one of the biggest contributors to weight gain. Cutting out fast food or limiting how much of it you eat can make a drastic impact.

2. Eat Only 4 Times a day~ Limiting yourself to 3 meals and a snack will lower the amount of calories to the point where you are eating enough and not to much. Eat a medium size breakfast, it is the most important meal of the day it gives you the energy you need for the day. Eat a small lunch i.e. a salad and some fruit. About an hour or two before dinner have yourself a snack. An apple or banana would be perfect. Keep it healthy. Dinner eat food with carbohydrates like noodles.

3. Exercise~ keeping active will cause you to lose weight. Most of the time people eat then sit in front of the T.V. That will Definitely be a huge factor in weight gain, but you are trying to lose weight. So go for a walk around the block, take your dog or significant other or just a friend and walk around for a half hour or so.

Health and Wellness - Resolving Obesity Problem

According to a report published in UK, a third of adult and a fifth of children will be facing the obesity problem by the end of 2010. This will result in more people suffering from related health problem like cardiovascular disease or type 2 diabetes associated with obesity. The Government will have to spend a major portion of its budget on its health care programs. The Government will do its duty. However it is also the responsibility of individuals to fight with the problem at their own. What can they do?

People will have to change their life style to combat the obesity problem. They will have to make their daily routine disciplined. They will have to change their luxury habits. They will have to learn to walk on the foot. They will have to do daily physical exercises. They will have to give up junk food. They will have to make it their habit to eat fresh food cooked in their kitchen. They may have to use weight loss supplements.

Neither any weight loss supplement nor any single exercise is alone capable of fighting with the obesity problem. A concrete well planned weight loss program will have to be adopted. Firm determination will be required to follow this program. Sit ups and other stomach exercises may tone up the stomach muscles below the layer of fat. But you will have to diminish this extra body fat to get the slim and healthy body.

To achieve the aim of getting toned flat stomach in place of your beer belly you will have to change your habits of eating, drinking and training habits. Unfortunately there is no miracle weight loss supplement is available in the health stores that can do away with your extra weight, while you are lying on the bed. You, yourself will have to do something. You do not need to do too much hard work. You will have to make some simple alterations in your daily routine.

What are these alterations, you need to make in your life? These are combining cardio exercises like walking, swimming and running in your daily routine. You will have to do some abdominal exercises. You will have to take controlled but balanced diet. You may need some effective weight loss supplement to compensate for the energy you spent in your long workouts.

In fighting obesity problem, the most vital role is of that of food. Habit of excessive eating increases the body fat and thus weight. Our body requires much less than we eat. By eating too much, we overload our metabolism system unnecessarily. The excess energy is stored in our body as an extra fat. We have given up the habit of working hard and spending the energy intake of the body. We tend to use weight loss supplements to lose this extra fat.

Often you have to do a little to get rid of increasing weight if you start at the right time. You need to do some workouts in the gym and some simple exercises at your home. These simple exercises include walking, jogging, cycling and some sit ups.

There could be adverse side-effects that could surface and result in long-term health problems.

Weight loss is a lifestyle than a physical act. Let’s take a closer look at why most people fail in their weight loss attempts. Survey results showed that the majority failed due to the lack of proper preparation. To be more specific, their will and motivation to lose weight are not strong enough and they give up easily each time a quick weight loss tips does not work for them. Many others give in fast to temptations of personal indulgence like food, snacks and the like. Still there are some who simple find it too tough to work out physically.

Assuming you are serious about losing weight, you then qualify as a good candidate to apply those quick weight loss tips shared here.

Ask yourself what are the reasons for you wanting to lose weight. Make sure they are motivating enough. Think of the worst case scenario should you fail; the ugly stares at your fat tummy, not feeling confident when approaching the girl/guy you wish to date? The purpose of this whole exercise is to condition your thinking. Ok, once you have found the strong reasons to lose weight, you are one step ahead of many others.

Now, we will look at 3 practical quick weight loss tips:

1. Be Prepared to Put in Effort

Your fat does not melt while you are sleeping or dreaming about it. You need to do something about it. We live in a world where everything seems to be ideal in the media. The movies we watch feature only beautiful ladies with excellent figures, handsome looking men with nice abs, and so on. TV commercials flash nice advertisements with a famous celebrity endorsing some slimming pills that touts itself as the “Diet Pill of the Century” and that’s how they got their svelte figures. Frankly, these are gimmicks playing on your fears and anxiety. The celebrities or models you see already have great figures before they shoot the advertisements. Everyone wants a wonder pill that helps them to lose weight instantly without any effort. That is why people would not hesitate to try these diet pills and supplements. Unfortunately, most don’t work.

2. Be Focused in Your Weight Loss Goal

quick weight loss can be achieved if you can stick with your exercise regime and dietary plans. It may take some time but it will happen. Stay focused on your goal, and keep reminding yourself on the motivating factors of your weight loss when you are starting to feel disappointed. It is important to share your goal with close friends and family members or even join a support group. Their constant encouragement would spur you on to fulfill your weight loss dream. No man is an island. Remember to put this quick weight loss tip into practice.

3. Have Fun in Your Weight Loss Exercises

Many folks fail to realize that weight loss can be an enjoyable experience. It requires deliberate but simple effort to inject fun. People have shared that they hated weight loss because they have to sacrifice their time with their TVs, their computer games, and give up on their favorite foods, and so on. Weight loss seems to have a negative connotation. If you are burning your calories, why not engage in games that you love? Like playing a game of tennis, or take a plunge in the pool and have a relaxing swim? For people who don’t like physical sports, they can go for brisk walking. Take a nice stroll with your loved ones. You wouldn’t even realize that you are exercising.

Health and Wellness - Spice up your diet

Living in Asia I know that adding more spices to your meals can actually help you slim down?

Eating chilies with your meal can actually help your body keep that cholesterol at bay and boost your body's metabolic rate. This is because chilies such as jalapeño, Asian, habaneras, and cayenne contain capsaicin. This compound creates that spicy and pungent taste in chilies and is responsible for that burning sensation you feel in your tongue. Capsaicin can be found concentrated in the white ribs where the chili seeds are attached inside the chili. This is why removing the chili seeds can help ease the spice. As a rule, the hotter the chili is, the more the capsaicin it contains.

Studies have found capsaicin effective in stimulating faster metabolism. Consuming more spices or more capsaicin increases the release of stress hormones like adrenaline. This, in turn, triggers a thermodynamic burn in our body that can last up to three to five hours after eating, thus helping our body burn additional calories. This thermodynamic burn speeds up the metabolism by dissolving calories and preventing new fat from forming.

Sprinkling more spices or more capsaicin in your diet can boost your body's ability to process cholesterol and fats. Capsaicin allows your body to excrete more cholesterol and helps in increasing the production of fat-dissolving enzymes in your liver. As a result, the insoluble fat triglyceride, which can also accumulate in dangerous levels in your blood vessels, is secreted effectively by the liver.

Spicy food can also keep eager eaters from over-indulging. Isn't it more difficult to keep on eating when you feel that hot, tingling sensation in your mouth?

And while capsaicin is barely soluble in water, we all know that the knee-jerk reaction to a spice bite in your tongue is to drink water. An increased water consumption aids in cleansing our body of toxins, including that unwanted fat.

So, start firing up that meal with a dose of chili powder. Sauté vegetables in hot salsa, instead of butter, and add chopped mild chili peppers into that salad. Compared to exercise and dieting - the tried and tested methods of weight reduction - indulging on that hot meal is definitely more enjoyable.

Health and Wellness - weight loss goals

Are you ashamed of your weight? Do you have a goal that you want to achieve through weight loss? I’d say so, it’s been pushed into our brains many times over and over again that "weight loss" is what we want to accomplish. There are weight loss guides, weight loss supplements, and many other things that push weight loss. Many people even set their goals to be at a certain weight. Additionally, the medical community has developed an deal weight chart, which can further add to the confusion about weight loss.

Now, let me ask you a question. Is your goal really weight loss? Unless you are trying to make a weight class for wrestling or some other sport with weight classes, you may think that your goal is weight loss, but it really isn’t. You are trying to lose that blubbery stuff attached to your body called FAT. Correct?

So then, why do we measure our progress by how much we weigh? Why do we step on the bathroom scale and hope that those numbers will be lower than before? You see, our weight is affected by more than just how much fat is on our body. Some other factors include water, muscle, glycogen, and obviously if we have eaten anything earlier or used the bathroom lately.

Our water weight fluctuates constantly. For instance, when we exhale water vapor comes out. When we sweat, we are sweating out water. There are also many more factors that can affect the amount of water in our body. Water is what usually causes those random gains or losses of a pound or two in weight that can make you happy or sad. It is almost physiologically impossible to lose a pound of fat in one day.

Fighting Inflammation

2010-06-29T05:55:00.001-07:00

When most people hear the word 'inflammation' they think of the swelling and redness that accompanies an injury such as a sprained ankle. However, inflammation can also be systemic and caused not by injury but by lack of exercise and a poor diet. Systemic inflammation increases the risk of cancer, hypertension, heart disease, gastrointestinal problems, and many other health conditions.

Inflammation of a joint, or its surrounding tissues, accompanied by pain, soreness, and inflexibility in that area is more than likely a result of causes ranging from infection, distress, degenerative changes or metabolic disorders.

Arthritis has many causes, however, genetics is one of the main causes. When it's in the genes, it's possible to experience problems even at a young age. It's considered hereditary when cartilage, joints, tendons, or muscles are weak and brittle right from birth.

Exercise is an essential means of managing arthritis. Exercise can help reduce joint pain and stiffness, and at the same time can help build strong muscles around the joints, and help to increase flexibility and endurance. Exercise can also give you more energy, can help you sleep better, can help you control your weight, and more importantly, it can make you feel better.

Exercise, diet, and proper supplements can go a long way in providing relief from arthritis and many other forms of inflammation. Eating healthy foods like fresh fruits, vegetables, and fish, especially ones high in omega-3 essential fatty acids, are loaded with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

Eating all natural foods and giving up preservatives and additives can actually prevent future arthritis flare-ups, and help to relieve inflammation. The best medicine for inflammation and arthritis is prevention.

Health and Wellness - Important weight loss tips

Most diet and weight loss programs have a depressingly high failure rate, with people either never reaching their weight goals or reaching them and regaining all the weight they lost (and sometimes more) in about one year.

Getting the weight off fast is so desirable that many of us are willing to sacrifice health and ignore common sense in the hope that some new weight loss program or scheme will work. This pipe dream can unfortunately outweigh the negative consequences. So let’s examine the downside of dieting.

What Is An Unhealthy Weight Loss Program?

Any weight loss program that is not nutritionally sound;
One that works against what the body naturally needs like vitamins, minerals, and a minimum number of calories a day;
One that requires you to go without eating (for example, fasting or meal replacement drinks);
One that puts your body into an unnatural state, such as starvation or ketosis.

Your body can only lose a few pounds a week on a consistent basis. If you lose more than that initially, it’s likely just water loss. So any weight loss program that promises you will lose five pounds a week, or 25 pounds in 3 weeks, is guaranteeing you will be losing water and muscle mass not fat.

Almost every popular weight loss program out there falls into one of the following diet categories: low calorie diets, meal replacement drinks, packaged foods, unbalanced nutrients, and ketosis diets. Let’s see how they stack up.

LOW CALORIE DIETS

Whenever you drastically reduce your calories, the body enters an unnatural state and its defenses kick in. So when calories drop below, say, 1000 calories a day, your metabolism will shut down in an effort to conserve energy. And weight loss with a sluggish metabolism is very difficult.

Your body will start using muscle tissue to provide energy, which again leads to a decrease in the metabolism. Taken to an extreme, the body will break down its vital parts (such as the heart muscle) trying to meet its energy needs.

In addition to these drawbacks, trying to maintain the weight loss over time is nearly impossible because your body is now used to making do with very few calories. Going back to “normal” eating causes the weight to pile back on.

For this reason, low cal weight loss programs rarely work over the long haul.

MEAL REPLACEMENT DRINKS

One of the most unnatural things for your body is to go without solid food, which is what meal replacement plans ask it to do. Some people think that dieting will be easier if they aren’t confronted with daily food choices and the pounds will just fall off. This may be true while they are on the liquid diet. But what about afterwards?

Where will the good eating habits come from after you’ve lost the weight? This is something that takes time, practice and knowledge. Dieters need to establish a healthy attitude towards a life-long eating plan. And no “fad” weight loss program or liquid lunch can help you with that.

Getting hooked on meal replacements can become a destructive way to view food. It often leads dieters to fear food or binge to “feed” their cravings after a long period of deprivation. And that’s just the psychological side of the equation.

The lack of fiber in such weight loss programs can be a threat to good physical health. And when the body is denied enough solid food, the intestines go into overdrive absorbing calories and nutrients. This helps you during the diet period, but later it makes it much easier to regain the weight.

Another yo-yo weight loss program that hurts you in the end.

UNBALANCED NUTRIENT PLAN

Be cautious about any weight loss program that has strict rules about good foods and bad foods. Sure, high fat and high sugar foods might be considered bad for the waistline, but moderation not abstinence is key to success.

Why? Because eating the same foods every day (say, grapefruit or high protein meals) is going to result in two things: nutritional imbalance and boredom.

All foods are made up of the same nutrients in different amounts: fat, carbohydrates, and protein. It is the right proportion of these nutrients that will bring about weight loss – not the avoidance of “bad” foods and the consumption of only “good” or magical foods.

In the world of dieting, no one food or nutrient group is magical. Variety and moderation are the keys to a healthy diet and a successful weight loss program.

PACKAGED FOODS To maintain your ideal body weight, you have to learn how to make proper food choices. By following a packaged food weight loss program you are postponing the inevitable, and spending plenty of $$$ in the process.

Another problem with this kind of weight loss program is that the foods provided are not always healthy. Read the package label and you will see chemicals, preservatives, sodium, sugar and saturated fats. And when all you can eat is packaged food, how do you plan meals with other people? Going out to restaurants and parties and enjoying family meals becomes a big hassle.

Your weight loss program then becomes a burden, not only to you, but to those around you.

KETOSIS DIETS

Ketosis has been defined as:

“An abnormal condition marked by excessive production of ketone bodies. Often caused by high-protein, low-carbohydrate diets such as the Atkins diet.”

Atkins and certain other weight loss programs are based on the principle of restricting carbohydrates to the point that the body enters into ketosis. On the surface, a ketogenic diet seems to work for two reasons: First, you’ll lose large amounts of weight, which is very pleasing to the dieter. Secondly, you don’t experience hunger.

But there are serious drawbacks. Your weight goes down due to water loss (which occurs when you restrict carbohydrates) and a loss of lean muscle tissue. This is NOT true, lasting weight loss.

The loss of appetite comes from having ketones building up in the body, which can harm your health. Side effects of a ketosis weight loss program can include fatigue, kidney stones, gout, and muscle loss. The longer you follow such a diet, the greater the risk to your health.

Clearly not a wise choice of weight loss program, not for the short term or the long.

WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM QUESTIONNAIRE

There are always new weight loss programs coming onto the market and going in and out of style. To evaluate if a weight loss program is healthy and sensible for you, ask yourself the following questions:

Is the plan nutritionally sound?
Will it help improve my weight, metabolism, cholesterol level, blood pressure, energy level, and general health?
Will I be eating real food and not have to buy special formulas, drinks, etc?
Will I be eating a wide variety of foods rather than just a few “diet” foods?
Am I allowed to have some treats and eat my favorite foods?
Can I eat out in restaurants, have a glass of wine with dinner, or some dessert?
Can I follow this weight loss program without it interfering with my lifestyle?
Can I lose weight without feeling hungry?
Will l develop eating habits for life-long weight control with this weight loss program?
Is this the last diet I will ever need to finally reach and maintain my ideal weight?

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

2010-06-28T05:47:00.001-07:00

Nutritionists have known for a long time that seafood is a low-fat source of high-quality protein. Eating seafood is one of the best choices for children, adults, and the aging population and the health benefits are simply amazing. In fact, many studies have shown that eating seafood can decrease your risk of heart attack, stroke, obesity, hypertension, and even decrease, or in some cases, total reduce inflammation.

Inflammation is a process in which the body's white blood cells and chemicals help protect us from infection and foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses.

"When inflammation occurs, chemicals from the body are released into the blood or affected tissues. This release of chemicals increases the blood flow to the area of injury or infection and may result in redness and warmth. Some of the chemicals cause a leak of fluid into the tissues, resulting in swelling. This process may stimulate nerves and cause pain." [2]

The immune system, a complex array of organs, tissues and specialized cells, protects us from outside invaders, such as bacteria, viruses, allergens and from harmful insiders, such as infected cells and toxins. However, the immune system is not segregated (immune) from disease that attacks the human body.

"Several chronic diseases involve the immune system. The most common are rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, psoriasis (an inflammatory skin condition), and some allergies. In these conditions the immune system overacts and the inflammation that results contributes to the disease symptoms - painful joints, itchy skin, swelling, redness, wheezing, etc. These overactive immune responses can be toned down by the omega-3 fatty acids found in fish. For this reason, the oils in fatty fish, such as salmon, mackerel, herring, rainbow trout, and sardines, can be helpful in reducing the severity of the symptoms of these conditions. Omega-3s cannot prevent or cure these conditions, but they may make a noticeable improvement in the discomfort associated with them."[1]

A diet that consists of fish high in omega-3 fatty acids can provide an added benefit one needs to ward off disease and illness. However, many people may not like fish. If that's the case, there are omega-3 supplements, like TriVita's Omega Prime.

Omega Prime contains a premier and unique blend of four different types of the most highly regarded Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) oils – Fish, Flaxseed, Evening Primrose and Perilla Seed. It also uses only contaminant-free fish oil that has undergone a 10 stage distilling process.

Start taking control of your health by adding omega-3 to your diet. Take advantage of what the nutritionists have known for a very long time - fish, high in omega-3 fatty acids, is needed to maintain a health body.

You can find additional information on Omega Prime and all of the TriVita nutritional products by going to the TriVita Products page.

Health and Wellness - Important weight loss tips

If you are really worried about being obese and you are ready to do something about it, then you are going to have to take a positive approach. This is why it is important to follow well-structured and well-designed weight loss tips. While this may be time consuming, some people truly do need these weight loss tips in order for them to achieve their goals. Of course, it is also important to make sure that these weight loss tips are safe and encouraged by your family and doctor.

Weight Loss Tip 1: Think Positive, Be Positive, Act Positive

Having a positive view about yourself will make it much easier for you to achieve your desired goal. This is because negative thoughts only block your chances of success. Furthermore, your health is partially psychological in nature, especially when it comes to your self-esteem and self-confidence. Therefore, make sure that you think positive so that you are able to achieve your goal.

Weight Loss Tip 2: Eat Light And Healthy

Some of the other ideal weight loss tips recommend that your diet consist of low fat, complex carbohydrates and a high amount of both vitamins and minerals. While these things may not always taste great, it is important to remember that there is no shortcut to success. Of course, if you follow the right weight loss tips things can be a little bit easier here at least. This is because gradually making a low fat diet an integral part of your life is ideal at all stages of your life. Such a diet should include whole grain cereals, pasta, fresh fruits, breads, green vegetables, beans and nuts. You should avoid eating junk food and fried foods. It is also important that you drink plenty of water all through your day as well. Furthermore, you should try to begin your day with a heavy, but fat free, meal such as cornbread with Taramasalata. This will help you to feel a lot less hungry throughout the day.

Conclusion

There are a lot of options available in the market that focus on weight loss ideas. However, the best weight loss tips always take into consideration a smart selection of food. This is why when you watch someone who is trying to lose weight not have any effective outcomes happening, you can rest assured that it is because the person’s calorie intake is higher than what they are burning.

Health and Wellness - Weight Loss and Diabetes

If you are overweight and have diabetes, losing weight can be beneficial. First, as you lose weight and body weight moves closer to ideal for height, blood sugar is often better controlled. Blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels improve as well with a healthy body weight.

Weight loss also offers the ability to move better, breathe better and a more normal resting heart rate. This can in turn help to make exercise easier.

Talk with your doctor about a healthy body weight and how many calories he or she recommends. A steady, healthy rate for weight loss is one to two pounds per week. One pound equates to 3500 calories, if your goal is to lose one pound per week 3500 divided by 7 days per week = 500 calories per day. You will want to reduce calories by 500 per day so that you can lose one pound per week.

Also, talk to your doctor about exercise. Exercise can help with weight loss as well as improve blood sugar, blood pressure and blood cholesterol.

Health and Wellness - Weight Loss Goals

One of the first things that you’ll do when you decide to lose weight is to set a goal weight. For most, that goal will be their ‘ideal weight’, but for many, that ‘ideal weight’ may be exactly the wrong weight for them to be aiming for.

Years of dieting or being overweight have the physiological effect of moving the body’s concept of the ‘ideal weight’ from what is truly considered ideal. The ‘set point’ is the weight at which your body naturally feels most comfortable. If you’ve been overweight for a very long time, or if you’ve consistently ‘yo-yoed’, your body may respond to your initial weight loss by lowering its metabolism because it believes that you are starving to death. This slowing leads to discouraging plateaus that often knock people off their diets entirely, and lead to regaining all or part of the lost weight.

Instead of aiming for an ‘ideal weight’ that calls for you to lose weight steadily for months or even years, many experts recommend aiming for shorter-term attainable goals. Since the bulk of diet research shows that most dieters lose weight steadily for about 12 weeks, then hit a plateau, that’s the number that they suggest you aim for. The strategy that many have found works best for them is one of alternating periods of weight loss and maintenance, each lasting 8-12 weeks.

Choose a realistic amount of weight that you can lose in 8-12 weeks. Figuring that the most reasonable and healthiest weight loss rate is 1-2 pounds per week, 30 pounds in three months is not unreasonable. Diet until you reach that goal, or for 12 weeks, whichever comes first, and then switch to a maintenance diet.

Why switch to a maintenance diet at that point? In part, you’re giving yourself a ‘breather’, a break from more restrictive eating. The other part, though, is that you’re re-educating your body and letting it establish a new ‘set point’. Once you’ve maintained your new weight for 8-12 weeks, set another weight loss goal, and move back into weight loss mode. By giving your body a break from ‘starvation’, you’ll have overcome its resistance to losing more weight, and be back to dieting for ‘the first two weeks’ – the weeks that most people lose weight more rapidly.

You’ll also be giving yourself a chance to ‘practice’ maintaining your new, healthier weight. Researchers have found that more than half of the dieters who take off significant amounts of weight do not maintain that weight loss once they go ‘off’ their diet. By practicing weight maintenance in stages, you’ll be proving to yourself that you CAN do it, and removing a powerful negative psychological block.

This will work with any long-term weight loss diet, no matter the focus. You’ll find it much easier to do if you choose a diet that has concrete ‘phases’, like the South Beach or the Atkins, since the weight loss and maintenance phases are clearly laid out for you to follow. Regardless of the diet you choose, though, by alternating between weight loss phases and maintenance phases, you’ll teach yourself and your body how to maintain a healthy weight.

How to keep your weight-loss! It is possible to lose weight and not gain it back. There is nothing more discouraging than to lose weight and gain it back.

The acknowledgment of your weight loss by your friends and family thrills you. You have greater passion for living. You have more confidence in your relationships. You like what you see in the mirror.

Logically, these benefits from losing weight should be rewarding enough to maintain permanent weight loss. Logically and consciously, the rewards for attaining your ideal weight are the benefits from being thin.

Why aren’t the benefits from weight loss strong enough to maintain weight loss? Unconsciously, the rewards for attaining your ideal weight are eating as in the past and and insufficient exercise.

Successful weight loss and programs to lose weight fail, because people’s motivation and thinking prevent successful maintenance of weight loss. In order to maintain permanent weight loss, you must change your thinking.

Unconsciously, for many people food is a reward and functions as a tranquilizer. When food functions as a reward or tranquilizer, successful maintenance of weight loss is impossible. From this perspective, losing weight is associated with punishment and grounding, because of past over-eating and not exercising. No one likes to be punished and deprived. No one likes to be punished and deprived permanently.

If losing weight is motivated and associated with punishing and depriving you, you are doomed to fail. Although you enjoy your weight loss and want to maintain your weight loss, unconsciously your mind begins to sabotage you.

Why? For your unconscious mind, the reward for successful weight loss is over-eating again and insufficient exercising.

Successful maintenance of weight loss only is possible when obesity, overeating and failure to exercise are perceived as punishments, while weight loss, eating right and exercising are thought of as rewards.

You’re thinking and motivation for losing and maintaining weight loss must change. Eating wrong and living without sufficient exercise can no longer be the reward. Thinness, eating right, and exercising must become rewards rather than punishments.

Before you begin any change in your eating patterns, change your thinking and maintain healthy thinking through out the weight loss period and after you have lost your excess weight.

Omega-3 and Your Memory

2010-06-21T06:01:00.000-07:00

Yesterday I was visiting with my mother-in-law. After asking me the same question a second time, she said, "my memory is not the same as it used to be." That, coming from an 88 year-old woman, may be all too common for the elderly. However, when it comes to middle-aged individuals, that should not be the norm. So, is there a way to improve our memory, or at least keep it from failing us as we age?

After reading the article below, "Ways to Improve Your Memory" by TriVita's Chief Science Officer, Brazos Minshew, I believe there are certain things we CAN do to improve our memory and keep it sharp as we continue to age, just as Mr. Minshew mentions in his article. I've posted the complete article below.

Ways to Improve Your Memory by Brazos Minshew

OK, I will admit it if you will: I have forgotten the names of people while I was talking to them! I have lost my car keys, misplaced my glasses and turned the wrong way on my drive home.

How about you? Does it seem like your memory is playing tricks on you as you age? Well, there are reasons for that and very few of these reasons are related to diseases such as dementia and Alzheimer's.

How to make a memory
Your memory is an amazing miracle. Every second your brain processes billions of bits of information from your five senses. You may consciously perceive only a very small percentage of this information because one function of your brain is to filter out unimportant information. The things you remember will usually be advantageous to you. For instance, remembering your wedding anniversary date or remembering where the speed trap is on your drive home.

Memory is classed into two basic groups:

Short-term: Short term memories are quickly forgotten when they are no longer important.
Long-term: Long-term memories may be divided into recent and distant.

Practicing or rehearsing can improve your memory by moving more information into long-term. For instance, when I am distracted by stress I will not be able to remember where I left my car keys. That information was deleted from my short-term memory. However, if I consciously say, "I am hanging my car keys on the hook," I am far more likely to remember where they are.

How to keep a memory

Reduce stress
Stress kills your memory. The stress system is designed to ensure survival. It helps us fight off a snarling dog or flee from a snarling bear. As important as that is, humans do more every day than merely survive. If you want to have a good, healthy memory, do all you can to reduce the need for fight or flight stress responses.

Learn something new
As mentioned, practicing or rehearsing something enhances memory. So does learning something new. You see, memory is facilitated through the billions of neurons and synapses in your brain by patterns: retracing old patterns as well as creating new patterns. The more new things we master and the more connections we create, the better our overall memory will be.

If you want to remember your anniversary, start learning a foreign language. If you want to remember important names, learn a musical instrument. The more you learn – and the more you connect the old with the new – the better your overall memory will be.

How to nourish a memory
Certain nutrients help the memory to remain sharp. These nutrients fall into two basic categories: those that create brain structure and those that nourish brain function.

Your brain is made mostly of fat. And the majority of that fat is an Omega-3 called DHA. So, to have a healthy brain we need healthy fats like OmegaPrime®. Your nerve cells convert some fats into functional nerve proteins called myelin. Formation of myelin requires dietary protein and Vitamin B-12. So, for healthy brain structure and function we need Omega-3 fats, healthy dietary protein and Vitamin B-12.

When the memory is activated, it creates heat in the brain. To fuel the memory, quench the heat and repair the daily wear-and-tear on your brain, you need antioxidants. Certain antioxidants target brain function specifically. An excellent antioxidant formula that is also anti-inflammatory is Nopalea™. The Betalain bioflavonoids in Nopalea also help improve circulation by fortifying healthy arteries.

What do you remember?
To recap: Occasional memory lapses usually indicate you are distracted by stress. Rehearsing things you want to remember and practicing new things you have learned can help you avoid stress-induced memory lapses. Because new behaviors create new pathways in your brain, learning something new such as a new language or musical instrument can improve your overall memory.

Stress kills your memory. Nutrients such as Omega-3, Vitamin B-12 and anti-inflammatory antioxidants such as those found in Nopalea can help rebuild and restore your ability to remember. With all of these tools at your disposal, you have access to the power of a healthy memory. ** End of Article **

From the Franklin Institute on the effects of stress and memory loss: "Chronic over-secretion of stress hormones adversely affects brain function, especially memory. Too much cortisol can prevent the brain from laying down a new memory, or from accessing already existing memories."[1]

We need to keep our brains active, and reduce or eliminate stress. If not, we'll wind up having increased memory loss and probably make the same statement as my mother-in-law. We only go through this life once, and it's important to take care of our bodies by eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and taking on some activity that will keep your mind sharp. You may even want to think about supplementing your diet with one of the nutritional products from TriVita.

Health and Wellness - Weight Loss Tips

First, assess why past diets have failed. “Yo-yo dieting” can have long-lasting, negative effects on your metabolism. If you drastically reduce calories, you’re also likely to deprive yourself of essential nutrients. Nutritionists recommend that sedentary women usually need at least 1200-1300 calories a day, but that’s if you’re carefully monitoring nutrient intake.

You need to lose weight slowly. Instead of a crash dieting, reduce your intake by 100-200 calories and eat more filling, high-fiber foods to combat hunger.

Small changes are most likely to be long-lasting. Trading mayo for mustard, or a side of fries for a side of veggies makes a big difference in the long run.

Don’t try to make unrealistic, drastic changes. If you absolutely love a certain food, swearing to never eat it again may lead to craving and binges.

Brush off mistakes. They are unavoidable. Demanding perfection is setting yourself up to fall short.

Target mindless eating. Are there any high-calorie foods that you consume that you wouldn’t miss? Food shopping once a week and planning your meals out can be a good way to avoid this. Now its easier than ever with online grocery services that deliver to your doorstep.

Treat your body well by appreciating the taste and texture of food and the way your body feels after exercise.

Finally, don’t let yourself miss out on the important things by spending all your time thinking about your weight. Your diet should be one aspect of your life, and it should never require you to turn down a social opportunity, distract you from school or diminish your self-esteem. If it does, those body image issues need to be dealt with before going on any type of diet.

Health and Wellness - Weight Loss

It seems that you can’t open a newspaper or magazine without seeing an article about one medical study or other that warns about all of the potentially harmful consequences associated with being overweight. Overweight people do have higher risks of heart disease, hypertension, stroke, and diabetes. If you ask me, those are some pretty compelling reasons to make a commitment to shed some pounds now. But perhaps you’re a bit cynical about the whole dieting process because of failed attempts in the past. That’s certainly understandable, and I can empathize with you . However, you’re health is too important to just give up completely. Instead, maybe it’s time you took a look at some weight loss products that can help you slim down.

First of all, I want to tell you that there are no magic weight loss products out there. The foundation of any effective diet is a combination of healthy eating habits and exercise. If you do just one or the other, you’re not likely going to see any noticeable long-term results. That being said, using weight loss products in addition to dieting and exercise could be the formula that finally makes the difference for you. There are numerous kinds of weight loss products available on the market today, and they all purport to have different effects on your body. So a successful diet depends in large part on which particular weight loss product you decide to use.

It is important to know your ideal body weight. What is an ideal body weight?

When you look at your height and your build, the number of pounds that are healthy for you is probably a higher number than you are shooting for if you are dieting. I know that the weight I seem to think is what I want is indeed lower than what my doctor is telling me. There is a difference between how you think you want to look in clothing and what is healthy for the maintenance of good health and longevity.

When you ideal body weight and your vision of your body don’t match, you have to think about why that is. I don’t mean when you think you want to be a few pounds lower than your ideal body weight, I mean when you are trying to be thirty or more pounds lower. This is not healthy for you, and you have to come to grips with the body you have. If you don’t, you may end up with an eating disorder. You may want to take some time to talk to your doctor or a nutritionist to see what is going on with you, and what you can do to be healthier rather than thinner.

Remember that you ideal body weight has more to do with health then anything else. This means that the weight that is ideal for you is one that is good for your heart and your long term health. This has nothing to do with how you will look in a swimming suit, but the closer you are to this ideal body weight you are, the better you are going to look. You may not think it’s perfect, but it is important to know that your ideal weight will help ensure you are around to watch your children and your grandchildren grow up.
