Women Feel the Chill of Winter More
Posted On 11/19/2008 09:17:32

Cold weather affects people differently, but did you realize that women feel the chill of cold weather more than men? 

 

Women generally have less muscle, and muscles produce body heat.  We’re smaller too, so we have a slightly lower metabolic rate and we generate less warmth. 

 

Even though we tend to have more padding on hips and thighs than men, men are more likely to have extra fat around the waist and upper torso, where it helps insulate their vital organs and prevent core temperature from decreasing.

 

Further, blood circulation to arms and legs is less vigorous in women, which is why hands and feet often are the first to feel frosty.

 

The temperature of each body part is directly related to blood flow to that area.  The more blood, the more warmth.  When your core temperature drops, the autonomic nervous system commands blood vessels near the surface of the skin to constrict.  This redirects blood toward vital organs such as the heart and brains. 

 

So ladies, what can you do to continue to function when mother-nature turns cold?  Well, here are a few tips that just might help.

 

  • Cooking creates as much heat as walking.  Housecleaning can be as warming as calisthenics.
  • Stand rather than sit and you will increase heat production by 20 percent.  For icy hands, swing arms windmill-style – centrifugal force drives blood into the fingers.
  • Dressing in layers helps keep cold at bay, as does eating.  Hot foods and beverages give the nervous system a warmth signal that encourages blood flow to the extremities.  Spicy foods do it too.
  • Hot coffee and tea are not helpful because caffeine constricts blood vessels, making extremities colder.  It also is dehydrating, which interferes with temperature regulation.  Alcohol also dehydrates and may suppress shivering, through which the body warms itself.
  • Medications that constrict blood vessels can also make you hypersensitive to cold.  Talk to your physicians about what your prescriptions contain.  Nicotine also restricts blood vessels.
  • You can make yourself more comfortable outside.  If you are standing still, stick some insulation – a piece of cardboard or a pile of leaves – between your feet and the ground.  Pull a scarf over your nose.  Exhaling warms the scarf, heating air as you inhale. 
  • For indoor comfort, wear oven mitts when reaching into the freezer.  Use tongs to pick up ice cubs.  Pour cold drinks into a thermal cup or mug with a handle.
  • Install a programmable thermostat so you can keep furnace heat on high until after you are asleep.
  • Keep your blood flowing by staying healthy.  A healthy immune system is the key to a healthy life. 

 

Now I have to admit that I am guilty of drinking coffee when I’m cold.  But after doing this bit of research, I am definitely going to rethink that theory.  Plus, I maintain my health not only through my diet, but I also take a supplement that is specifically targeted to creating a healthy immune system.  For more information on this supplement, visit this website: http://www.gojihealthappeal.com.  No kidding folks, I haven’t even had a cold for over a year – and I give all of the credit to this supplement.

 

 


Are You Tired of being Tired?
Posted On 11/17/2008 09:16:07
Then do something about it! We all know that life and stress can take a great toll on our bodies - especially around the holidays.

If you are simply tired of being tired, and want a natural approach to being healthier, then you are at the right place. So, why should YOU try GoChi? Here are a few excellent reasons:
So, what is your health worth to you?

Not to knock the other so-called nutritional beverage juices out there, but I want to bring a couple of things to your attention.

  • None of them can claim that their product has been clinically tested nor published. They can only say that their fruit or berry has clinical values - not their product. This is similar to "not telling you the whole truth." Don't even waste your time and money on unsubstantiated claims!

  • Most of them offer a pitiful guarantee such as an exchange, or they only accept non-opened bottles for refunds.

Okay, okay, so I am knocking them, but I am also bringing these facts to your attention, and by doing so, YOU will be an educated consumer!

Try GoChi. You will be absolutely amazed at how much better you feel! All ages can benefit from taking GoChi as part of their daily diet. Seniors, baby boomers and children all love GoChi ...and yes, it does taste delicious! From the moment you open the bottle, you will notice the fresh sweet aroma.

Are You Recession Proof
Posted On 11/12/2008 13:32:48
I'm sitting here today listening to talk radio. It's usually my favorite - it helps me keep up with the topics, as well as gives me an occasional laugh or two.

But, even with the elections now over (thank God!), the news just doesn't seem to get any better. The economy, gas prices, food prices, bail-outs of banks, car manufacturers, credit card companies, foreclosures and more! How depressing!

But, I had a wonderful distraction. I heard from my sister Ginger, today. We are very close, and she has always been an inspiration to me. I refer to her as 'the matriarch' of our family - you know what I mean - that one person in your family that is "grounded?" Well, that's my sister! I was so happy to hear from her!

Ginger is a dedicated and successful business woman who travels to exotic lands all over the world. If there was ever a question or problem in her company, she was the "go-to" person. And, I can honestly say that I think she has become the model of success!

Ginger is a good wife, a loving mother, as well as a good daughter and sister. She's been married to her high-school sweetheart forever, and they've managed to put their children through college. All in all, she's the type of person that you'd love to be like. Bad things just don't happen to her.

Until today... her company laid her off! She never even saw it coming! Wow! I knew that it happened to 'other' people.., I mean, I read about it every day - but her? Of all people that I can think of; I never thought this would happen to her! She sadly called to tell me the news, and for the first time in her life, she applied for unemployment.

Another victim of our society.


Now-a-days, this scenario is becoming so common-place. It's scary to wonder how you are going to pay your mortgage and put groceries on the table; and heaven forbid, something happen health wise! Your savings will only last just so long.

So my question to all of you is; "Do You Have a Plan B?" If not, now is the time to start thinking about it. I'm confident that you will be just as excited about this business opportunity as Scott and I, and we will be glad to help you set up your very own GoChi distribution business!

You can contact me via email: goji@gojihealthappeal.com; or visit our website at http://www.gojihealthappeal.com.

Here are some highlights:
  • A one time fee of $39.95 will get you started!
  • Plus, one of the most single great selling tools offered by FreeLife is the 90-day guarantee on every product that they sell. You can't get a guarantee like that anywhere!
  • And, not to mention the website - it comes with the initial fee, and you don't pay monthly charges (like most companies).
  • You don't have to stock supplies - everything is ordered and delivered via internet.

So, get your Plan B in action, and start today! Don't wait for the recession to find you!

We hope to hear from you soon!

She's Losing Weight...
Posted On 10/23/2008 10:38:17

She's Losing Weight

This is a little off the beaten path today, but every now and then, I stumble across some information that may be of good use to many of us these days.

I was reading an article in the Orlando Sentinel today, where a reader wrote in stating that she was trying to lose weight through nutrition and exercise. Her problem is that her clothes are constantly too big for her. The more she lost, the worse her clothes looked. This wasn't good for her morale, because she couldn't afford to keep purchasing smaller sizes each month. She needed professional attire, as well as social evening clothes.

This actually poses an excellent problem for anyone in this situation.

Anyway, the great news is that there is a new company that offers plus-size clothing for rent or purchase! The company, Transitional Sizes, is geared toward dieters who are in transition from large to smaller sizes. You can rent or buy anything from tops, skirts, pants and suits, to evening dresses and accessories. Rental prices range from $3 to about $18 per month.

Wow! What a great niche this company has stumbled across! Weight loss is on top of most Americans wish list, and this company has found a solution that many people can appreciate!

This is just one fine example of how you can turn an idea for a "need" into a prospering business!

If you read newspapers, you will see that they're filled with many health related stories such as recalls, side effects, new studies and warnings. Today alone, I read about blood thinners and anti-smoking drugs that are killing people. Doctors are even reporting that our children are more prone to allergies than twenty years ago! Yikes!

The trend is that most people are now turning towards a healthier alternative for their health, whether it be nutrition, exercise, sleep, weight loss or to stop smoking. Anything that they can do to stay healthier. The nutritional industry alone is projected to be a multi-billion dollar industry within a few short years! That's why you're seeing a lot more commercials these days.

FreeLife - Live It! has introduced a new product that has had incredible results! Coupled with GoChi - the next generation of Himalayan Goji Juice - thousands of people are reporting not only better health - but substantial weight loss as well.

Keep reading the article for more information on this new product called the Daily Edge. And as always, there is a 90-day, empty bottle, money back guarantee for all of the products from FreeLife.

For those of you curious about how to turn this trend into money in your pocket, you can visit our website at http://www.gojihealthappeal.com/. View our compensation plan, income statistics and more! You can use this to become fabulously wealthy!


Here's to your health!

Don't Put All Your Eggs in One Basket!
Posted On 10/09/2008 13:21:15

Don't Put All Your Eggs in One Basket!

First, I would guess that most people who are reading this are full time employees somewhere, and for them, network marketing could be their "plan B". I'm sure there are many full time network marketers here, but most people who join an MLM opportunity do so to escape the rat race and find some real freedom and security. The faltering economy can be the wake-up call to really get active in our pursuing our financial future.

Second, at the risk of offending some of you (don't take it personally, please) I think it would be naive to think you don't need a "plan B". I agree that total commitment is a good thing, but at the same time, don't we all:
  • insure our homes and cars against potential catastrophes?
  • have fire extinguishers in the kitchen?
  • purchase a shredder for protection against identity theft?
  • know how to get out of the house in an emergency?
  • think of an alternate route when traveling in case we encounter traffic problems?

All of these are examples of "plan B's." We don't really expect any problems, yet prudence dictates that we have a back up plan, just in case. I think it would be foolish to not have a back up plan when it comes to the most important aspect of our survival in the modern world: our income.


But hey, do as you see fit. I, for one, don't plan to violate one of the oldest lessons ever taught: don't put all your eggs in one basket! Even before the current economic mess, I was encouraging people to be prepared for change. Twice in my life I've lost my job, so I guess it made the idea of having a "plan B" a bit more urgent for me than for some people.


No one knows how bad the economy will get. It could be a ripple or it could be a full recession, but it won't be a depression unless widespread panic sets in. Regardless, now is the time to protect yourself and also to give some hope and security to your friends, family members, and associates.


I also recommend that you redirect your non-vital spending and put that money into starting your own business. If you just cut spending, you're contributing to a potential recession. You need to help keep money flowing, but instead of the HBO & Showtime cable package, why not cut that and put the money into leads, advertising, business cards, or the marketing tool of your choice?


This is not the time to panic but it is the time to focus on what's important and do the things that will help secure your future in the long term. Think of it as an opportunity!A true entrepreneur keeps working at something until he has found the working combination. Look at Thomas Edison. What he was trying to do, everyone told him it was impossible. What if after 999 unsuccessful tries, he had given up? Could you, WOULD YOU, do the same thing?

That is the measure of your commitment. Your business should be your first love, not your Job. If you want a business of your own, then work it, don't use your day job as a crutch. Here is a good question; do you think your Boss really cares about you as an individual? How many businesses are closing up, downsizing, or cutting back production and hours. Why aren't you putting this same effort into starting your own business?



Is it FEAR? Self Doubt? Then what? If you said you don't have enough MONEY that is only an excuse. Much can be done without money. All I had was an opportunity like this that led in what we are doing today.



We joined FreeLife International because we experienced substantial health benefits that were backed-up by a physician – who wanted to know what we were doing to make such a dramatic change to the positive in our health. That was good enough for us, but then it got better.

FreeLife conducted three separate HUMAN clinical studies on their product GoChi, which has since been published by a major medical journal, reported on the government’s web-based medical database (pubmed.gov), and recommended by numerous TV shows, magazines and newspapers for better health, and more! And, to prove that FreeLife stands behind every product that they sell, they offer a 90-day, empty-bottle, money-back guarantee. No other wellness product and/or company makes an offer like that!

What do you have to do? Simple:

If you become a marketing executive with our company, when you sign up, your organization has a grand total of ONE person in it.., you.

1


Now, let’s just assume in the first month, you simply bring in 1 new M.E. So, then at the end of the first month, you would have 2 people in your organization.


1 + 1 = 2


Now, let’s assume that each of you simply each bring in new one new person the second month. So, you’d now have 4 people in your organization.


2 + 2 = 4


Now, let’s assume that on a monthly basis, each new person simply brings in one new person each month. So, at the end of the 3rd month, you’d have 8 people; at the end of the 4th month, you’d have 16 people; and at the end of the 5th month, you’d have 32, and at the end of the 6th month, you’d have 64 people.


4 + 4 = 8

8 + 8 = 16

16 + 16 = 32

32 + 32 = 64


So, after the end of 6 months, you have 64 people in your group.., you are making a little bit of money, but it seems like it’s growing slowly. We are an instant gratification society; we are not used to delayed gratification. Well, watch what happens in this illustration over the next 6 months.

64 people become 128, which becomes 256, which becomes 512, which becomes 1024, which becomes 2048, which becomes 4096! 1 + 1 = 4096 people!


64 + 64 = 128
128 + 128 = 256
256 + 256 = 512
512 + 512 = 1024
1024 + 1024 = 2048
2048 + 2048 = 4096


If everyone is ONLY doing the minimums, one case of GoChi a month, each member in your organization is worth approximately $8.00 a month. That’s $8.00 per person, per month. 4000 people at $8.00 a head is 32 thousand a month!


4000 x 8.00 = 32 K / mth


What if only 50% of that happens, you’d be making 16 K. What if only ¼ of that happens, you’d be making 8K a month – that’s $100K a year! Heck, what if only 10% of that happens, you’d be making $3,200 a month RESIDUAL, almost $40k a year!


$32K, 16K, 8K, 3200 / month = $40K a year


And, that’s assuming the $8.00 minimum; in our group, the actual number is $22.00 per person.

To become a Marketing Executive with our company costs a whopping $40.00 – for which you receive a 4000 page, e-commerce capable website which enables you to do business in 24 countries, and some training tools. Then you’ll need some juice. You need at least a few cases for you and your family to use. But, if you are ready to get started building, you’ll need some GoChi on hand to get rolling. We suggest you order a value pack, a special reserved ONLY for new M.E.’s. You get 6 cases for the price of 5. Buy 5, get 1 free. A great deal!


Take a moment to view our 2007 Income Statistics, then join us again here for the next step!

Join us today and embark on a new future! We’re only a phone call or email away to help you!

A Simple Explanation of MLM Compensation Plans
Posted On 10/02/2008 12:33:16
There are 4 types of compensation plans used by every MLM in the world. They are commonly called:
  1. Stair Step Breakaway,
  2. Matrix,
  3. Unilevel and;
  4. Binary.

Yes, there are 4 basic plans… I say basic because although all mlm companies use at least one of these plans, they are sometimes combined as well. We call combined plans "hybrids." For example, a company may have a binary front end and a unilevel back end, or a unilevel front end then breaking away into generational bonus on a part of the back end.


These terms front end, back end and break away, etc. are mlm terms (lingo) that must be learned if you are to fully understand compensation plans. The term front end is generally regarded as the sponsoring and/or enrolling income and the back end is the residual income.

I'm not saying you'll need to be a comp. plan expert to make a fortune in mlm… BUT IT HELPS!

These compensation plans or "marketing plans" were introduced to the mlm industry in the order you read in paragraph one.


Prior to the early 1980's, we had the Stair Step Breakaway's. Companies like Amway (now Quick Star in North America), Nu-Skin, Herbalife, Watkins, Shaklee, Reliv, Pre Paid Legal and many
more used these plans and had their success.


In the mid 80's we saw the introduction of the matrix by a company called Melaleuca. The early and mid 90's were when the unilevels took effect by companies like Freelife, Life Plus, Nu Vision and ACN.


And finally, more towards the late 90's and into the 2000's we saw the influx of binary's. There were so many companies that came and went using this binary plan I can't even mention them all, however, the companies that are using them and still in business are companies like Usana,
Market America and Innerlight, to name a few.


Stair Step Breakaway:


This plan is an oldie, and up until the unilevel was as close to perfected as can possibly be, we can say it was a goodie. Again, that was until the unilevel proved to be the preferred plan by start up companies, who, if it wasn't for the unilevel, would've probably used the "breakaway." The Stair Step Breakaway usually requires a $100.00 active status (personal volume requirement to get paid) and requires others to do the same. The whole point being, when you start the sponsoring ball rolling, one person with $100.00, then another, then another, your group volume starts rowing.

There are no width restrictions in this plan, meaning you can sponsor as wide on your level one as you want. When the volume in one of your legs (personally sponsored people's group) hits by or around $5,000.00 , that's when that group breaks away from you, thus the term "breakaway." Then the company requires you to have, depending what company it is, at least $750.00- $3,000.00 of "side volume" (volume outside of that breakaway leg) to qualify to get
paid usually 5% of that breakaway volume.


That's where, in my opinion, these plans fail… If you don't qualify for your break away volume, that "generation" rolls up to the first qualified upline who does get paid on it.

There are 2 major problems with this:

  1. People don't like not getting paid, so they're encouraged to:
  2. "side load" or "garage qualify" themselves, to qualify to get paid or if they don't qualify, usually for 2 or 3 months, that generation that is under them permanently rolls up to the first qualified upline and they lose their group or not… It may just compress up, so the qualified upline gets paid on it, then it gets put back under them, month after month, year after year, until they finally qualify for it or quit… Either way, the qualified upline gets paid.

My concern is that the qualified upline really doesn't have massive incentive to help you get paid, because they get paid whether you qualify or not, and that my friends is not what I would call a win/win situation.


The potential for people side loading themselves to qualify is so great that they probably do not have a lot of incentive to buy new product to stay active, so these companies highly encourage their people to retail out the product to basically get rid of it, which is better then getting stuck with it. It is true that the better companies have a return policy, but often it's only 30 or 60 days and people don't usually quit in that period of time, so…


Because of this, in the mid 80's, we saw the introduction of the:

Matrix:


The mlm company Melaleuca, was first to come up with the concept of the matrix comp. plan, or at least the first company to make it work. (mlm trivia note: be careful when you refer to
Melaleuca as an mlm company. For some reason, they take offense to the term mlm… whatever)

This plan takes the best of the breakaway, approx. a $100.00 active status but leaves out the negative,… NO MORE BREAKAWAY. Commonly termed "No more break aways or take aways.
The actual term matrix is referring to the limited sponsoring width requirements. For example, Melaleuca is a 5 X 7 matrix, meaning you can sponsor 5 people on your first level, then you have to start sponsoring people under people to help build your matrix… 5-25-125, etc. until you build a 5 by 5 matrix down to 7 levels.


Hey, how about that, no more breakaways, no more take away and the upline actually has to sponsor people under you… WOW!


The problem with this, well one of the problems with this, is it goes against the basic principle of teaching people how to fish vs. fishing for them. Sure, it initially sounds good that you’re going to get people placed under you, but long term this is proven to not be a working yourself out of work, by teaching people how to work concept.


That's why, to date there are only 2 companies using this type of plan. Look at it like this, if it was so good many more companies would be using it.


The reason Melaleuca is using this plan with decent success is because they were the first to implement it and a huge part of their recruiting strategy was to speak negatively about the break away companies like Amway and Nu Skin.


I'm not a fan of "negatively recruiting" strategies, so to me, this is not a powerful way to recruit.
The matrix has other bells and whistles like perhaps car bonuses, advancement bonuses, the ability to go wide when roll up happens and other leadership bonuses, so you can make some good money with them.


The better plans in general will have a monthly compression feature which means if a person in your group is inactive, the person under them moves up a level and when this compounds throughout your entire group, this can mean significantly more volume coming up into your pay levels increasing your income, in some cases, by thousands of dollars a month.

In fact, a monthly compression feature is so important, I wouldn't even look at a company unless they had one… (mlm side note: Melaleuca has compression after the second month of inactivity which is better then not having it, but obviously not as good as having a monthly compression feature.)  These plans worked relatively OK, until the industry really got smart and came up with the concept of the:

Unilevel

The unilevel plan came to be in the 90's and gave us the best of the breakaway (unlimited sponsoring on level one, without the take away and the best of the matrix, approx. a $100.00 active status to get paid on your organization).


The major consumable product players that came out with this plan in the 90's were: Freelife, Nu Vision and Life Plus. These companies changed the face of Network Marketing as we know it
today. This plan generally pays 6-7 levels deep, Freelife being the only 10 level unilevel in the industry.


Since these companies proved their success, Freellife being by far the greatest, other companies started duplicating this plan and today, we see the unilevel as the preferred plan for consumable mlm companies. Companies like Tahitian Noni, XanGo and ACN are also unilevels. Noni an 8 level, XanGo a 9 level and ACN a 7 level plan. We find that the best unilevels are those with "hybrid" type features.


For example: Freelife's 10 level unilevel includes check matching, 20% cash paid to the enroller on over 100 personal points and generational bonuses to name a few. Some unilevels, like XanGo are good plans but are, in my opinion, too structured and force you to place volume under personally enrolled people, whether they're leaders or not, in order to maximize your pay.

Freelife, on the other hand, let's you work with people in your personally enrolled genealogy allowing you to drive depth and work with workers and count those leaders in depth for you to move up in leadership levels. This "depth driving" feature can possibly be the single most important feature in this plan.


These "state of the art" unilevel plans are, in my opinion, the best comp. plans for consumable product companies. They allow a person to actually consume what they're active status is without having to load up on extra product to qualify for breakaway volume and when you add on the hybrid features, some of the largest incomes in mlm are being produced by them. On top of that, when you add on monthly compression, roll up and customer volume counting as personal volume, like Freelife's plan, you have the absolute best plan in the entire mlm industry. That's why Freelife is the fastest growing mlm in the world, according to the D. S. A. (Direct Selling Assoc.) ( mlm side note: The company Vibe is also a unilevel, but doesn’t have monthly compression and, in my opinion, requires too much structure similar to XanGo.)


Then we saw the introduction of the:


Binary:


I'm going to try to keep this as simple as possible. The binary was introduced in the 90's to combat the, what was thought of in that time, as the negative name recognition of network marketing.


The binary companies like Usana and Market America took pride in the fact that you only have to build 2 legs (bi meaning two) and you can potentially, note I say potentially, get paid on unlimited depth in your group, thus NOT considering themselves a "multi-level" company because in reality, there are no levels… Just 2 legs going straight down.


So how do you get paid? Good question. The original binaries were what we call a 50/50 match binary. You sponsor people on your left leg, then match that volume in your right leg and you get paid a percentage of that volume. If you can do this match weekly, you'll get paid weekly. This all sounds good because, like the matrix, you must place people under people promising them that you'll build their outside right leg and all they have to do is build their inside left leg.

So what happens now? Because most people never get their balance, the term "binary blues" was derived meaning you would have a ton of volume in one leg and very little in another, so
although you were being built under, you weren't getting paid on it… Just shoot me!


My goodness… all that volume and not getting paid? Well then who's getting paid on it? You got it, the few power upline and the company. That's right, binaries create the highest percentage of
breakage to the company out of all the plans. In fact if you added up all the breakage combined in the 3 other plans they probably still don't add up to the amount of breakage the binary companies keep.

The term breakage means the amount of money a company can pay, but because you don't qualify for pay because you didn't match your legs, they keep the money. That's where you have the term flush and non-flush binaries. The better binaries, if you can say better, don't flush the volume monthly and although they probably flush it yearly, they're still considered to be non- flush binary’s.


We also saw the introduction of hybrid like binaries with features like a one third/two third match instead of 50/50. We even saw what was called a multi match and matching on the weaker leg… Blah, blah, blah. The truth is, these plans worked best for single, non- consumable,
product companies like the old pre paid calling card and travel card deals.


Once you start having to focus on consumable products, you have to take the focus off of the matching and it's a catch 22. You're either going to be too product driven, where your testimonies are, and probably not get paid, or too money matching driven and not create enough product loyalty.


In my opinion, although there are still some binaries out there, they are very difficult plans to create a long- term residual income. Remember what that word residual means… On-Going-Income.


How can you have on-going-income without a consumable? Usana and Market America are consumable companies, the binary, in my opinion, is a major reason why they've been flat
for years.


(MLM sidenote: Monavie is also a binary.)


Their growth stems from an influx of ex-Amway people who do not understand mlm comp. plans. So remember this… Although these 4 types of compensation plans are probably a bit confusing to understand. They can very possibly be the major reason why some very talented people can barely earn $40.00 a month, while others with a lot less talent can earn $40,000.00 or more a month.


I put this article together with the hopes of empowering you in the area of compensation and help you get to the point where you can at least somewhat explain the differences in these plans when you're talking to mlm people and at least get them interested enough to do a 3 way call with your upline who may temporarily understand this a bit better, until you keep doing and keep learning and become the mlm professional you know you are.


Thanks for reading and I wish you massive $uccess.

Tips for a Healthy Life!

Tips for a Healthy Life!

If you're like most people, you're probably looking for ways to look and feel your best. The following tips from the U.S. Government's Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will not only help you to look better and feel better, but they can also help you to reduce your risk of developing long-term serious health problems.

Eat healthy. What you eat and drink and what you don't eat and drink can definitely make a difference to your health. Eating five or more servings of fruits and vegetables a day and less saturated fat can help improve your health and may reduce many health risks. Have a balanced diet, and watch how much you eat.

Keep a healthy weight. Obesity is at an all-time high in the United States and Canada, and the epidemic may be getting worse. Those who are overweight or obese have increased risks for diseases and conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke. Eat better, get regular exercise, and see your healthcare provider about any health concerns to make sure you are on the right track to staying healthy.

Get moving. More than 50 percent of American men and women do not get enough physical activity to provide health benefits. For adults, 30 minutes of moderate physical activity on most, preferably all, days of the week is recommended. It doesn't take a lot of time or money, but it does take commitment. Start slowly, work up to a satisfactory level, and don't overdo it. You can develop one routine, or you can do something different every day. Find fun ways to stay in shape and feel good, such as dancing, gardening, cutting the grass, swimming, walking, or jogging.

Be smoke-free. Health concerns associated with smoking include cancer and lung disease. Smoking triples the risk of dying from heart disease among those who are middle-aged. Second-hand smoke - smoke that you inhale when others smoke - also affects your health. If you smoke, quit today! Help lines, counseling, medications, and other forms of support are available to help you quit.

Get routine exams and screenings. Sometimes they're once a year. Other times they're more or less often. Based on your age, health history, lifestyle, and other important issues, you and your healthcare provider can determine how often you need to be examined and screened for certain diseases and conditions. These include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, sexually transmitted diseases, and cancers of the skin, prostate, and colon. When problems are found early, your chances for treatment and cure are better. Routine exams and screenings can help save lives.
Manage stress. Perhaps now more than ever before, job stress poses a threat to the health of workers and, in turn, to the health of organizations. Balancing obligations to your employer and your family can be challenging. What's your stress level today? Protect your mental and physical health by engaging in activities that help you manage your stress at work and at home.

Know yourself and your risks. Your parents and ancestors help determine some of who you are. Your habits, work and home environments, and lifestyle also help to define your health and your risks. You may be at an increased risk for certain diseases or conditions because of what you do, where you work, and how you play. Being healthy means doing some homework, knowing yourself, and knowing what's best for you.., because you are one of a kind.

Be safe - protect yourself. What comes to mind when you think about safety and protecting yourself? Is it fastening seat belts, applying sunscreen, wearing helmets, or having smoke detectors? It's all of these and more. It's everything from washing your hands to watching your relationships. Did you know that men at work die most frequently from motor vehicle incidents, machine-related injuries, homicides, and falls? Take steps to protect yourself and others wherever you are.
Be good to yourself. Health is not merely the absence of disease; it's a lifestyle. Whether it's getting enough sleep, relaxing after a stressful day, or enjoying a hobby, it's important to take time to be good to yourself. Take steps to balance work, home, and play. Pay attention to your health, and make healthy living a part of your life.

To these great lifestyle tips, we'd like to add two recommendations that we believe will help you tremendously in your quest for vibrant good health:
  1. Get an edge in the fight against aging with Daily Edge. More than a mere multivitamin, Daily Edge is a major breakthrough in cellular nutrition. Formulated straight from the headlines of leading scientific journals, easy-to-swallow Daily Edge capsules bring you the 66 most-studied vitamins, minerals, co-factors, antioxidants, and food-derived health-rejuvenating nutrients, delivered in the precise potencies most recommended by the latest research studies. Daily Edge is the most powerful daily multi-nutrient formula you'll find anywhere at any price.
  2. Drink 4 oz. (120 ml) of GoChi every day!

GoChi - Participants in groundbreaking clinical study report experiencing significantly improved feelings of health in just 14 days!

In a recent human clinical trial featured in the peer-reviewed Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine (JACM), participants drinking a daily serving of just 4 ounces (120 ml) of GoChi reported experiencing significant improvements in 13 diverse areas of health and well-being in as little as 14 days!
In two subsequent human studies, blood tests on participants drinking GoChi showed significant improvements in the body's antioxidant status and in 3 key areas of immunity.

The publication of our first groundbreaking study by the independent experts of a peer-reviewed publication such as JACM represents a first for a functional juice beverage in the Direct Selling industry, and it demonstrates FreeLife's ongoing commitment to supporting its claims with solid scientific research.

How to Win the Fight Against Fatigue
Posted On 09/20/2008 19:55:22
In other Health Watch articles, we’ve talked about the many energizing benefits of restful sleep. But even if you are getting plenty of sleep and are not feeling drowsy, you may still be suffering from fatigue. There’s a difference – in general, drowsiness is feeling the need to sleep, whereas fatigue is a lack of energy and motivation, often accompanied by apathy (a feeling of indifference or not caring about what happens). Fatigue is disruptive and interferes with all aspects of daily living. In the United States, fatigue results in about 10 million doctor visits each year. Fatigue can be a normal and important response to physical exertion, emotional stress, or boredom. However, it can also be a sign of a more serious psychological or physical disorder. Some of the more common of these are:
  • An allergy that leads to hay fever or asthma
  • Anemia (including iron deficiency anemia)
  • Depression or grief
  • Sleep disorders such as ongoing insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea, or narcolepsy
  • Underactive thyroid or overactive thyroid
  • Autoimmune diseases such as lupus
  • Chronic liver or kidney disease
  • Congestive heart failure
  • Diabetes
  • Poor nutrition
  • Certain medications may also cause drowsiness or fatigue, including antihistamines for allergies, blood pressure medicines, sleeping pills, steroids, and diuretics.
If you have any of these medical problems, please see your doctor. For the rest of you, here are some great lifestyle tips that can really help you to win the fight against fatigue:
  • Get adequate, regular, and consistent amounts of sleep each night. It helps to go to bed at the same time each night and to get up at the same time each day, and to sleep in a cool, quiet, and comfortable room.
  • Eat a healthy, well-balanced diet, and don’t skip breakfast. When you first wake up, your blood sugar is low, and eating a healthy breakfast can serve as an energy booster that will start your day off right.
  • Drink plenty of water throughout the day. You may be surprised to learn that nothing can tire you out faster than dehydration, so keep a bottle of water by your side whenever possible.
  • Exercise regularly. Moderate aerobic exercise, 3 or 4 times a week for 30 to 45 minutes, will help increase your energy level. The key is consistency, if you want to see consistent results.
  • Learn how to relax. When you’re under excessive stress, your breathing becomes shallower, limiting the flow of vital oxygen to the cells of your body and brain. Whenever you’re feeling worn down by stress, try taking 5 to 10 deep breaths to help regain control. Breathing exercises, yoga, and meditation are techniques you can practice any time, and they’re great tools for managing stress and fatigue.
  • Keep a reasonable and realistic schedule. Prioritize your daily to-do list and pace yourself as you work your way through your day. And make sure to schedule time for yourself. Even a half hour a day spent doing something that you enjoy will pay big dividends in reducing fatigue.
  • Change your stressful circumstances, if possible. For example, take a vacation, and deal directly with problems in a relationship or with your boss.
  • Take a multivitamin to help your body’s natural defenses against fatigue. FreeLife offers advanced multi-nutrient formulas that can give you an edge in your daily fight against fatigue.
  • Drink 4 oz. (120 ml) of GoChi® every day!

Warning - New Energy Drink WITH Alcohol !
Posted On 09/18/2008 07:33:41
First we had Joose, then RockStar 21 - and now MillerCoors LLC is coming out with yet ANOTHER energy drink that is similar in packaging to Red Bull.


And, to make matters worse, it is a caffeine-infused alcoholic energy drink. They call it Sparks Red, and is now considered a "recipe for disaster" because adding caffeine to alcoholic beverages reduces drinkers' sense of intoxication. This new juice is set to be released October 1, 2008.


Energy drinks range from 2 ounces to 16 ounces per serving - and is loaded with caffeine, sugar, calories, etc. There are NO nutritional values in these drinks. They get you hopped up with caffeine and sugar.., and then you CRASH.

What good is that?

Want to see a comparison on energy drinks and what healthy alternatives you can choose? Visit this link:

Don't let your kids fool you.., become educated!

Have an enlightened day!

Joan
