Omega 3 - Getting To The Heart Of Inflammation When we think of inflammation, we generally tend to associate it with the pain and swelling after a sprain or injury. But inflammation is far more serious than that.

These inflammatory chemicals run around causing havoc - causing inflammation where there is no injury In fact inflammation is becoming one of the leading and this can harm us and even kill us if that causes of death and inflammation can be found in inflammation happens to manifest within the heart. virtually any part or organ of the body. In a study published in the "The Journal of Nutritional And although inflammation is an essential body Biochemistry", entitled "Mechanisms Underlying process which protects us from invading bacteria and Omega-3 PUFA Cardioprotective Effects"scientists viruses and also aids the healing process, showed that consumption of omega 3 provided inflammation which is out of control can, and will, kill benefits for both primary and secondary prevention of us. cardiovascular disease. So Why Is Inflammation Getting Out Of Control? Inflammation is caused by the body itself.

The study also suggested that omega 3s also inhibit inflammatory signals in the nervous system, reducing and regulating omega 6 fatty acids.

We produce inflammatory chemicals all the time. If we Why Has The Diet Changed And How Can We are injured or we catch a cold then these chemicals go Restore The Balance? to work to protect us against invasion and to heal the injured site. Our diets have changed drastically over the past 100 years or so. The body also produces anti-inflammatory chemicals which keep the inflammatory chemicals in check so The industrial age has brought with it fried foods, fast that they do not run rampant within the body. foods, refined sugars and flour and a host of other goodies.

Make It Easy to

Willpower is a finite, limited resource. It's controlled by the prefrontal cortex part of the brain that also has a lot on its plate to look after. Including, keeping you focused, problems solving and short-term memory. So when it comes to dieting it is easy to become overwhelmed as if we are tired or this part of us is taxed to the maximum, those easy comfort foods become irresistible, especially in the office environment. Thinking like an engineer for a second, if we are building a process we put multiple strategies in place to ensure that the process runs smoothly with minimal hiccups. We will refer to these as layers: Layer 1: Reduce the hunger signals It is easy to reduce the likelihood of reaching for a snack if you are already satiated. So ensure that you don't miss major meal breaks and drink lots of water. If you aren't hungry those sweet treats are so much easier to avoid. Layer 2: Make it easy to eat the right thing Stock your local areas with sensible snacks so if you do slip you won't fall far. A healthy snack plan such as small quantities of nuts can take the edge off cravings. If you are hungry and before you eat anything, drink a glass or two of water. Thirst is a hunger trigger signal and can fill the stomach so that your satiation level is reached earlier and you stop eating.

Layer 3: Listen to your body No matter what diet you take. Ensure that you listen to your body. Chances are that if you feel full at the conclusion of a meal 10 minutes later you will feel overfull. Use this to recognize and understand your body's signals. Remember that if you are no longer hungry. Stop eating! IF you are nearly full put down your fork and drink some water. This should top you up to completion without bloating. Your body has a complex set of hunger signals that can be tricked into being satisfied without resorting to high energy snacks. The desk job diet can help you to understand these signals and develop strategies to beat them. Layer 4: If you slip get back on the wagon Do you have smoker friends who say that they will quit smoking at some future date? I.e. New Years, birthdays, the day they start a new job. Inevitably the day roles around and they try for a bit and go right back to smoking. The secret to willpower is to keep trying. If you slip up, that's okay. Willpower is a muscle that needs to be exercised to grow. Every time to exercise it you get a little better at it. Layer 5: Distract Yourself: Folks who are better at resisting a temptation are often just better at getting their minds off of it. Some implications: Don't let yourself sit and wonder about how much you hate going for a run or how much you'd really love an ice cream. Walk away from trouble spots like bakery counters or vending machines! Have a favorite fantasy or visualization you can turn to for distraction when tempted to take the low road, The ole alcoholics axiom stands true too if you don't want to slip don't go where its slippery!


Selecting Accurate Pedometers Will Benefit

Walking is one of the most popular and healthy forms of exercise. Many experts recommend using pedometers, or step counters, to measure your progress and motivate you. Most experts, however, do not expand on that recommendation and assume you will find something that works for you. Finding the perfect pedometer is easy if you know how to evaluate the reliability, accuracy and convenience of the many pedometers available. These guidelines will help you make that decision. Reliability. Historically, step counters have been available for several hundred years. Thomas Jefferson introduced a mechanical model to America after his trip to France in the late eighteenth century. These early devices were noisy, error prone, spring activated or gravity dependent devices with very short lives. Many inexpensive pedometers still use these mechanisms. Fortunately, the digital age has produced a new generation of pedometers that use silent piezoelectric sensors. These sensors function very much like the biologic sensors found within the bones, tendons and collagen of your own body. They respond to movement as well as to the speed of movement and are sometimes called accelerometers for these reasons. These precision sensors disregard false movements, such as shifting your weight between your feet, from actual steps. Most importantly, because they are activated by movement instead of gravity, piezoelectric pedometers function effectively for walkers of all ages, abilities and body builds. Accuracy. By design, piezoelectric pedometers are incredibly accurate. However, this technology is of limited benefit if you cannot change the factory settings to your own personal values. In other words, the use of the manufacturer's default settings will result in estimates not measurements. For example, you must be able to enter your stride length and weight. Stride length is dependent upon your height, your gait and your speed. Your stride length multiplied by the number of steps taken equals your distance traveled. You must also be able to input your weight or you will not be able to measure the actual calories you used during your walk. Better pedometers allow you to program this personal information so you can determine your individual distance and calorie measurements.

Convenience. Ergonomic, durable pedometers are a pleasure to wear and use. Screens that are easy to read in both bright and low light conditions mean you do not need to stop walking to check your progress. An integrated clock with a stopwatch simplifies workouts since you have less equipment to wear. Another useful feature is a backup function that retains cumulative steps, distance and calories until you decide to zero out the values. This is very helpful for recording your progress. Research indicates that if you add many more options than these, the pedometers become unwieldy and begin to lose accuracy. Walking is a natural, comfortable and effective way to increase your fitness level. Technological innovations have made accurate and affordable pedometers a useful addition to any walking program. Knowing how to evaluate a pedometer is the first step on the path to a more active lifestyle. You can purchase programmable piezoelectric pedometers for less than the cost of a good pair of walking shoes. This investment in your health will yield excellent returns for many years.

ARE YOU ALWAYS STRUGGLING TO FIND WAYS TO GET FLAT ABS? IF YES, YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

3 Unconventional Ways to Get Flat Abs As a fitness professional, I hear the question of how to get flat abs all the time. It's one of our most desired goals when it comes to fitness and health. We have the right to want to get those nice abs, everybody does. The cool thing is, we all have a nice set of abs sitting under the belly fat we carry. I'm going to share with you three ways to get flat abs. These techniques work if you apply them. Remember, you will achieve your goals if you have an action plan and take the action from that plan. The first way to get flat abs is to start doing fat burning cardio. How do you do fat burning cardio you may ask. You want to work on getting your heart rate up to about 60 percent maximum and maintain that rate. Just a nice long cardio session at a lower spiked heart rate will burn fat, especially around your mid section. The second way to get flatten your belly is to start eating fats! Yes, I said it, eat fats. I do not mean the fast food foods, but the healthy fats. What do you mean healthy fats you may ask? I mean Omega 3,6,9s. You can find these fats in fresh fish, avocados, almonds or Omega supplements like flax seed oil and fish oil.

Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/6825939

The third way to get to get a flat stomach is to start cutting out acidic foods from you diet. Some studies have shown that acidic foods cause you to gain fat. The studies have shown that fat is an acid buffer and protects your body from the harmful acids from the foods. Start eating alkaline rich foods like cucumbers, avocados and fresh spinach. Raw foods that are green are usually alkaline. Acidic foods are foods like soda, candy, hamburgers, coffee, sugary drinks and pasta just to name a few. You want to balance your body's pH and by doing that you should see the fat melt. I try to keep my diet about 75 percent alkaline and 25 percent non alkaline foods and tend to see awesome results from that balance. Remember, these are just studies, but I have seen awesome results with my clients, myself and have read a lot of great stories on others who live a mostly alkaline lifestyle. So when it comes to ways to get flat abs there are a lot out there. Take the baby step approach when working towards your goals, do not overwhelm yourself. The main thing is to keep this process simple and try not to get confused with the hype on ways to get flat abs.

Best Fruits for Weight Loss Getting fit and healthy is difficult for people who live unhealthy lifestyles and are therefore over weight. Losing weight isn't just a matter of eating healthily, it's a matter of breaking the habits of a lifetime. People who normally eat fatty foods often say they don't like more healthier foods because they don't taste nice or they aren't used to them. Well you don't need to overhaul your diet to start losing weight, sometimes it is just tiny changes that will have dramatic effects. Changes such as adding a few foods to your diet, and also taking away a few foods, just as long as you are adding and taking away the right foods. One of the best types of food to add to your diet are fruits, the best two fruits are bananas and apples. They are extremely versatile fruits, that can eaten alone raw or used in a variety of different ways. There's nothing easier than simply grabbing a raw banana or apple and putting it in your pocket or in your bag. It's a great source of energy, it's healthy, it's cheap and it won't have a harmful effect on your body. You couldn't do that with a plate of chips or a cheeseburger. If you're not the sort of person who likes to eat bananas or apples raw then you can simply add them to existing meals, it really isn't as hard as it sounds. If you're a fan of cereals in the morning or any time of the day, then why not chop up a banana, apple or both and then add it to your cereal?

It makes it much healthier, it will fill you up more so you'll less inclined to snack and you might even enjoy it more. If nothing of things apply to you then at least it's a great way to boost your five a day. Another great way to enjoy fruits without eating them raw is to include them in smoothies or juices. Smoothies and juices are extremely popular because they blend in lots of things, so if you don't particularly like the taste of one element then the taste won't be too strong, as it will be mixed will lots of other things. Try mixing bananas and apples with milk, yoghurt, honey or even different flavours of jam. It's a great way to refresh, start the say or just relax.

Ten Extremely Beneficial Amino Acids Amino acids are essential for all organs, systems, and functions of the body to thrive. Some benefits of amino acids include increased stamina, muscular growth and faster recovery, reduce mental fatigue, and overall increased bodily function. There are however 10 amino acids that have been clinically shown to be extremely beneficial to one's health and physical performance. Arginine Research has shown that this amino acid promotes wound healing, liver regeneration, the release of growth hormone, and overall improved immune functionality. Some studies also suggest that arginine promotes the production of nitric oxide in the blood but has not been completely validated. Glucosamine

Is Losing Weight As Easy As Drinking The Right Tea? There are a bunch of green tea sales pages online that would have you believe that this statement is true. Is it? What does your common sense tell you? A compound in green tea is said to speed up your metabolism, but is it enough for you to keep your same eating habits and still lose weight? Let's take a closer look at this tea. Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/6825969

Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) Um, epi-what? EGCG is the compound in green tea that is reported to have an effect on the metabolism. This is why drinking the tea is supposed to aid in weight loss. The problem is that the effect is so minute that it would take a LOT of tea to have any visible effect. Should I just drink a lot of green tea then? The problem with too much tea, is that too much of anything isn't good. Green tea contains caffeine (about 1/3 as much as coffee). Caffeine can be addicting and too much can cause adverse health effects (heart rate, calcium imbalance, behavioral effects, sleep disorders etc). Not only that but tea also contains fluoride and aluminum, which are toxic. I thought green tea had other health benefits, you're saying too much is toxic? Repeat: Too much of a good thing is not a good thing! Don't OD on tea because it has advertised health benefits. A lot of the studies that are done on green tea, are actually done using isolated compounds from the tea, not the tea itself. That's not to say that it doesn't have some beneficial compounds in it. In fact some sources report it has higher levels of flavenoids (antioxidants) than some fruits and vegetables. The take home message? Drinking a cup or two a day is not going to hurt you, but it's probably not going to work miracles on you either. My friend told me about green tea extract, is that better? When you take an extract, you are just taking a concentrated form of whatever the original product was. So you are going to get the good stuff and the bad stuff too. There are reports that the extract can help things like cholesterol and increase the rate of fat burning. I'm not going to recommend against it, but use it responsibly. Green tea is definitely not bad for you, but it's the salespeople that have taken it a bit out of proportion; it is not a miracle cure-all. Enjoy a cup at breakfast or mid-day, but don't drink it before bed or you might be up all night contemplating the meaning of life. If you are serious about losing weight, accept that your dietary habits are going to have to change. It's going to take a bit of effort on your part, and that's OK!


CAN EATING FISH BE DANGEROUS? We know that fish contain mercury that affects the nervous system -- that's the bad side. On the good side, experts say that fish is rich in essential fatty acid content, which protects our brain. Find out what quantity does not harm your health! Too large of doses of mercury is toxic to the brain, heart and nervous system. In particular, pregnant or nursing women should be very careful about eating fish, because mercury prevents fetal neurological development.

Warning to pregnant women and young children

On the other hand, numerous studies talk about high content of omega-3 fatty acids found in fish and meat that help develop the brain, improve memory, protect the heart, the fight against rheumatoid arthritis and cancer. Therefore, experts have concluded that it is not recommended to give up all types of fish, but only to those that contain large amounts of mercury or other contaminants.

Evidence indicates that if a woman has a balanced diet in omega 3 fatty acids before becoming pregnant and during pregnancy, fetal brain develops better and has a low risk of suffering from postpartum depression, and heart and bones develop in harmony.

At least two servings per week --- that is both the World Health Organization's recommendation and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has set safety recommendations on fish consumption. According to these indications, it is recommended not to exceed 340 grams of fish per week, but depending on the weight of each of us is likely that this amount be slightly lower or higher. Also, the American Heart Association says healthy adults can safely consume up to 400 grams of fish weekly.

Both pregnant women and children are more susceptible to the toxic effects of mercury, so it is important to have a moderate consumption of less contaminated fish species.

If you are pregnant, avoid eating the following fish that are high in mercury: * Shark; * Swordfish; * Royal mackerel; * Tile fish; * Tuna; * Greenland; * Pike. Experts' advice 1. Choose fish species high in omega 3 fatty acids and low in contaminants. The best sources are salmon (wild, would be preferable), mackerel (mackerel but not royal), herring, sardines, mussels, oysters, anchovies and trout; 2. Eat a variety of fish species not limit yourself to one; 3. You can choose canned light instead of white tuna that contains three times more mercury While the 'mercury' sounds scary, if done correctly, you can still partake in eating fish!

Soya Protein and

Soya protein is not only a low fat, low Carbohydrate source of whole protein but may also promotes weight loss when compared with other protein sources.

In a double blind trial by Professor Forsythe WA named Soy Protein, thyroid regulation and cholesterol metabolism. In the trial some Soya products, which include Soya protein isolate, had a positive effect of the thyroid and therefore increasing the metabolic rate in the participants taking the product, whereas no change was found in the group taking the placebo. In another study weight loss Adviser Dr. Steven Heymsfield took 40 people and 50% went on a low calorie diet and 50% supplemented with Soya protein shakes, and at the end of the trail the 20 participants taking the Soya Protein Shakes had lost more weight than those on the calorie controlled diet. This quite an amazing find as despite on part of the trial following what is classically the way to lose weight, the ones who simply took soya powder shakes lost more weight. Other trials such as the one run by Tulane University School of Public Health showed other benefits of adding soya protein to the diet such as stroke risk reduction and blood pressure lowering qualities. This generally shows how effective and healthy soya can be. From weight loss to stroke reduction, soya seems to be a great addition to the diet.

Countries that have historically had soya as part of their diet have higher life expectancies than those that don't, for example Japan and China. Japan has a higher life expectancy than both the United States of America and the United Kingdom. There are a number of factors that can control this, and one single product cannot be responsible for an entire nation, but diet can hold a major factor in determining life expectancy. Protein has been viewed for many years as a good source of energy for those who want to lose or maintain weight especially when training. There are three main reasons for this; one being that Protein is the slowest digesting of all sources of calories, therefore does not cause a spike in glucose and takes more calories to digest. Two, protein has a stimulatory effect on the thyroid and three, protein helps stop muscle catabolism caused by the body breaking down muscle to be used as fuel during exercise. So supplementing with extra protein can help lose weight and if that protein is soya protein there is evidence that this will help even more.


Energy Drink - Is It a Real Energizer? People often rely on food, drink and medicines to increase the level of energy or stamina in body. Studying at night to do well in exams next day or working overnight to prepare presentation for office meeting- for all reasons, energy drinks have become a quick means to revitalize body. Available in various flavors, many youngsters prefer to have them for to give fast relief to body and mind. Any energy drink contains stimulants and minerals that help in replenishment of lost energy while on work. When four or five gulps flow down the throat, there is fast recharge of energy. Stimulants like caffeine, minerals like calcium and phosphorus and vitamins with added amounts of sugar and herbs make it a rich combination drink. One of the effective stimulants used is caffeine which is at least three times more than what is used in cola or a regular cup of coffee or tea. Glucose is used as a sweetener to increase the level of energy and reduce tiredness. Few brands often use ginseng as stimulant. However, such drinks have now become a source of addiction like narcotics. Even on small loss of stamina, people have made them a part of their diet. Having excess cans of energy drinks can cause multiple health problems. Nervousness, irritation, dyspepsia, abnormal heart beats and excessive urination along with convulsions can make a man a complete slave of medicines.

A mixture of alcohol and drinks can either cause severe depression or severe dehydration. In young kids, these drinks might cause nausea, vomiting and restlessness. Young kids and children are prohibited from drinking because of its stimulant nature. Elders and people having history of enzymes or kidney problems should also stay away from it. The people suffering from heart ailments, hypertension, diabetes and obesity are also advised against having it. It is also important to use branded drinks only as far as possible. There have been cases where local or country made drinks have proved disaster to human body. Such drinks often contain contaminants and low quality ingredients that damage the internal structure of human body. Energy drinks are often believed to be easy way out for freeing body from exhaustion. Making excessive use of drinks is very harmful as it's likely that they disturb the natural tolerance level of human body. The level of sustaining any type of mental or physical stress gets reduced making user more lethargic. For rejuvenation, a gulp becomes a necessity.

ARE ALL CALORIES THE SAME? But if that food doesn't add anything back to your body, then it leaves you in a state of having less nutrition than you did before you ate it. On the contrary, fresh organic whole foods are loaded with nutrients. Often times they are also loaded with the enzymes that your body uses to digest that particular food. Many people focus mostly on calorie counting when they are trying to lose weight. But the fact is that focusing too much on that single aspect of nutrition can do more harm than good. Why? Because not all calories are created equal. Now, in the literal sense, a calorie is just a measurement of energy. So yes, a calorie is a calorie. Our bodies use the energy that is stored in those calories to perform vital functions. And an excess of calories that we don't use gets stored as fat. So yes, it is important to be aware of the calorie content to some degree. But it becomes less and less important as the quality of the food we are eating increases. The important distinction that I want you to make in your mind is that the nutrient quality and density of the food you are eating makes a huge difference whether the food will add nutrients to your body, or take them away. And also whether or not you gain or lose fat. When a food is totally void of nutrition, such as most fast food and processed foods in the middle of the grocery store, your body needs to draw from its own nutrient and energy stores to break that food down.

In this situation, the food you are eating is adding nutrients back into your body. And that is the way food is supposed to work. It is supposed to nourish you. Not deplete you. To take this example a level deeper, consider the fact that many foods contain large concentrations of nutrients that are vital to support various processes in the body. The processes range from supporting immune function, to detoxification, to supporting the structure and function of various organs. If you are eating foods that require your body to work even harder without supplying it with the necessary nutrients to support the repair and maintenance of itself, you are putting yourself on the fast track to healthy problems. By eating foods that are more nutrient dense, you can focus less on calorie counting and still improve your over all health.

Turmeric Medical Benefits: Do You Know What You're Missing? You're right to be interested in turmeric medical benefits. This spice is a hot topic in today's medical world and with good reason. Traditional Indian and Chinese medicine have used it since 600 B.C. as everything from a disinfectant to a digestion cure. In Western medicine, turmeric is studied in hospitals around the country for its role in reducing inflammation, protecting against cancer and a host of other medical benefits. A Powerful Anti-Inflammatory You probably know about the dangers of chronic inflammation. Left unchecked it can lead to heart disease, arthritis and virtually every other serious disease. While some inflammation is necessary-after all, it's your bodies' defense system--chronic inflammation is a sign that your immune system is out of control. At least one prominent doctor recommends turmeric as the best natural anti-inflammatory available. An Italian study found osteoarthritis patients who took turmeric supplements experienced a "significant reduction" in pain. Other studies have found it can be as effective as a cortisone shot at pain relief and experience less morning stiffness because of it. The reason it's such an effective anti-inflammatory is because it's a Cox-2 inhibitor just like Celebrex and Vioxx-without the side effects. A study conducted at the University Of Arizona College Of Medicine, found the active ingredient of the spice-curcumin-blocks a protein called NF-KB from flaring up in the joint and attacking it. Turmeric could help in other inflammatory diseases such as irritable bowel system (IBS) and asthma. Protect Your Brain It's also effective at blocking beta amyloids. These are the proteins associated with Alzheimer's. A study at UCLA found mice who ate food that included turmeric protected the mice as well as any of the major Alzheimer's drugs available today. Researchers say Indians 70-79 years old, have a 4.1 lower incidence in Alzheimer's disease than most Americans. They now trace this to the high levels of turmeric in their diet. Other studies show turmeric medical benefits extend to cancer prevention, cystic fibrosis and multiple sclerosis among other diseases. It may even help you lose weight. Turmeric Medical Benefits This miracle spice is native to India and is made from the root of the curcuma longa plant. Its active ingredient is curcurmin. If you want to get more of this healthy spice in your diet you can eat a lot more Indian curry. Though scientists say it can be a bit hard to digest this way.

Health Habits: Supplement Your Brain Think About What You Eat... Eat What Helps You Think Guess what! Your brain does not operate on its own... it's attached to the rest of you. If you keep your body healthy, your brain will be healthier too, and you will be giving your brain a better chance to help you stay smarter and live a longer life of abundance and vitality.

Not long ago, brainy brain researchers presented findings at the International Conference on Alzheimer's Disease which suggested possible benefits of fish oil supplements on brain health - and on aging. The researchers found definite associations between fish oil supplements and cognitive function, and found there were differences in the actual structure of the brain between subjects who used the fish oil supplements and those who didn't. You may have heard of the many different supplements (most naturally-occurring minerals) that can help your brain stay sharp - fish oil's just one. Other popular and effective ones include gingko biloba, L-carnitine, and Coefficient Q10. You can also do your brain a few favors with the foods you choose. For instance, recently, scientists reported in the "British Journal of Nutrition" that whole ginger extract has a lot of promise, especially in cancer prevention. Their findings focused on prostrate cancer (closer to your other brain, guys), but showed that ginger had a significant impact on stopping the growth of cancer cells. In studies on animals, they found the extract didn't come with significant toxic side effects for normal tissues, such as bone marrow, and showed tumor regression up to sixty percent. That's a big deal! They say humans would have to consume about 3.5 ounces of the extract a day to get the benefits, but hey, that's why they make supplements. And the new findings show that ginger is just the latest in a long line of natural supplements that can improve your life - and your brain.

Supplementing gives your body what it can't get in today's world of convenience-related "garbage" food - and it's one of the five key daily health habits I call "The NEWSS." Watch your Nutrition (putting in the good and limiting the bad), Exercise (3-6 times a week), Water (two liters every day), Sleep (eight hours every night), and Supplements (I recommend a liquid nutraceutical that packs a powerful punch of vitality). We all lead busy lives - but it doesn't take long to swallow a few highly-helpful supplements. Start with the nutraceutical and then add what you need as you develop your own supplement plan (in consultation with a trusted, informed health pro). If you want to stay smart, having and adhering to a good personal supplement plan is a smart thing to do. Michael Hume is a speaker, writer, and consultant specializing in helping people maximize their potential and enjoy inspiring lives. As part of his inspirational leadership mission, he coaches executives and leaders in growing their personal sense of well-being through wealth creation and management, along with personal vitality.


Working Towards Personal Health and Fitness It is amazing that with the huge number of exercise machines and programs on the market today, personal health and fitness is at an all-time low.
