Try a pedometer. A new study shows that people who use pedometers walk much farther than people who don't. A pedometer clips onto your belt and tracks how many steps you take each day. At the end of the day, you simply look at the digital display and see how many steps you have taken. The study, published in this month's Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, found that overweight, inactive women did better when they were given a pedometer and told to take 10,000 steps, compared to women who were given a sealed pedometer and told to walk for thirty minutes. When women could count their steps using the pedometer, they not only met the goal, they walked an average of 2,000 steps extra on days they went on walks. And on other days, they still walked more than they usually did. Women who couldn't see their pedometer's display did go on the 30 minute walk sometimes, but when they didn't, they weren't as active as the other women. Write it down – jot down the number of steps you've taken during the day and you'll have a record of how far you really are walking every day. Even on un-energetic days, you'll see your past successes down on paper. Notice those steps – you may be surprised to see how many steps you take running an errand, strolling through a store, or even walking to the mailbox. Notice how many steps you take doing everyday things and you'll stay motivated. Get the easy to read pedometer – TriVita's pedometer counts steps, calories burned and tracks your miles.

A new study shows that athletic older adults have young, flexible hearts – with about half the stiffness of sedentary adult’s hearts. Exercise seems to be the fountain of youth for the heart – it can actually keep heart muscles flexible, which reduces the risk of heart failure. And since heart failure is the number one cause of hospitalizations for people over 65, this is important news.In the study, the hearts of nationally-ranked senior athletes were so healthy, researchers couldn’t tell them apart from young people – the athletic senior hearts pumped as well as the hearts of healthy people half their age.The study, published in the September 2004 issue of Circulation, a journal of the American Heart Association, compared senior athletes (average age 68) with sedentary seniors, and young sedentary adults. Researchers found that activity influenced heart health, even for older adults. Walk - a stroll around the block is great exercise and fun too! Clip a pedometer on your belt and see how quickly those steps add up to better health. Dance – silly or serious, it gets your heart pumping. Put on your favorite song at home, or go to a social dancing event. Swim – if there’s an indoor pool near by, splash your way to health. You don’t need to be a perfect dolphin-like swimmer, just enjoy moving. Count every step you take towards better health with TriVita’s easy-to-read Pedometer.

Remember, you don’t have to endure an uninterrupted hour of exercise to benefit. Take the stairs, park farther away, or even squeeze in a mini-workout before dinner. Short workouts do add up to greater health and well being, sooner than you may realize. Try wearing a pedometer and see how quickly everyday steps can add up. In a bad habit – exercise is a habit like any other. If you’re in the habit of spending your free time on the couch, it will be difficult to change your routine. Luckily, habits can be broken and once you learn a new way to do things, you’ll likely find your new habit easy to stick with. All it takes is going on an evening walk, enjoying a dance class, or getting involved in a sports team you enjoy. Before you know it, your bad habits can be changed to a lifestyle that leads you right to your goals.The wrong fuel – though it takes time to build up your exercise endurance, if you’re not sticking to your routine or seeing results, you may be eating the wrong foods and starving your body of good exercise nutrition. Make a point to eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins. Taking a daily multivitamin and energy supplement may also help increase your energy while you exercise. Remember, a diet of fast food, chips, donuts, soda pop and cookies will not help your body stay healthy and energized during exercise, compared to a healthier diet. Unhelpful people – if the people closest to you don’t share your exercise and health goals, it can be hard to change your routine, especially if you spend a lot of time with people who enjoy foods and activities that make staying healthy difficult. If you’ve tried to explain the importance of health and wellness and it doesn’t help, focus on finding exercise buddies and people to help support your goals.

This low-impact activity reduces your risk of heart disease. It also helps prevent: high blood pressure, stroke, cancer and diabetes. Reduce the risk of nerve damage in diabetics – only 6.5% of walkers had nerve damage, compared with 30% of non-walkers. Prevent hip fractures in post-menopausal women – just 30 minutes a day reduces risk by 40%. Reduce the risk of stroke in women – experts suspect this is due to maintaining healthy weight, keeping blood pressure at a healthy level, and increasing “good” HDL cholesterol. To get started, take a stroll through a local park, nature trail, or just step outside and meander through your neighborhood. If the weather is too chilly, try walking around your local mall – many malls offer walking programs which meet before the mall opens – you can meet new friends, exercise and window-shop all at the same time!Tip: If walking for 30 minutes, 5 days a week sounds challenging, start by walking for one minute a day. Each day, add one minute to your walk – in only 30 days you’ll be walking for 30 minutes! And don’t forget, those little steps you take every day add up – walking to the mailbox, cleaning the house, even walking around the grocery store – use a pedometer to see how quickly little steps add up to big results.

For most men, prostate cancer is a big concern – close to one in six men will get prostate cancer during their lifetime. Close to 80% of men over 80 already have prostate cancer. But there are things men can do to help lower their risk. Exercise – even getting a few extra minutes of exercise can help reduce risk of diseases. Try walking, lifting weights at a gym, or playing a sport. Eat right – eating plenty of antioxidant-packed fruits and vegetables may help stop cell-damaging free radicals. Try adding a few fresh snacks to your daily diet. Learn – ask relatives about your own family history of cancer, and stay aware of health information that may affect you. Go to your local library and learn all you can about conditions that concern you. Check-up – men 50 and over should have a prostate exam and blood test once a year. For men with a family history, start getting exams at age 40. Keep your doctor informed of any changes or concerns, such as urinary problems. Fill gaps – nutritional gaps leave you vulnerable. Supplement your diet with helpful vitamins and herbs such as: magnesium, zinc, selenium, lycopene, saw palmetto and stinging nettle root.

So what can you do? A new study shows one simple thing may help keep you safe. Researchers found that avoiding the pharmacy during the beginning of the month may help avoid prescription errors. The study, published in the January issue of Pharmacotherapy, found that medication mistakes rise by 25 percent during the first few days of the month – a time when many pharmacies are very busy filling prescriptions for Americans who have just received government checks. Keep this and other tips in mind to help keep your medications safe. TIPS FOR SAFER PRESCRIPTIONS:- Avoid the busy time – if possible, don’t pick up your prescriptions during the first few days of the month, which is the most hectic time for pharmacies. If you have to go during the beginning of the month, check your prescriptions extra carefully. - Always double check – if you can, jot down the name of the prescription and the dosage before dropping it off. When you pick it up, double check it’s the same information on the label. - If you aren’t sure, ask – if the prescription doesn’t sound correct, call your doctor or pharmacist, or both. You may feel like a bother, but if you don’t bother, you may not be giving your health the attention it needs. - Let the pharmacist talk – you may be in a rush, but make sure you wait to talk to the pharmacist about your prescription. They may give you important information you would miss otherwise. - It doesn’t hurt to look it up – if you’ve never heard of the drug you’ve been prescribed, go online and search for information. For example, if you were prescribed a painkiller instead of an asthma medication, and your doctor didn’t have a chance to explain the reasoning behind this, you may want to call and ask. - Stay aware of side effects – if you notice side effects which concern you, call your doctor. You may not be tolerating the medication well, the dosage may be too high, or... you may not be taking the right prescription.

You are at greater risk for Alzheimer’s Disease if you have a high level of homocysteine. You’re also at greater risk if you don’t have enough folic acid and Vitamin B-12, found a 1998 Oxford study, published in the Archives of Neurology. A high level of homocysteine can also increase your risk of dying prematurely from diseases such as: cancer, heart disease, stroke, and lung diseases, found a July 2001 study by the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. So what can you do to reduce your risk and lower your homocysteine?  . Get enough folic acid, and Vitamins B-12 and B-6  . Eat a balanced diet with plenty of lean meats, fruits and vegetables  . Exercise  . Stop smoking The single biggest factor in reducing your risk, is taking B-12, B-6 and folic acid supplements in a sublingual form. Many people over the age of 40 cannot absorb these vitamins if given in a regular pill form. The sublingual tablet is placed under your tongue and is absorbed directly into your bloodstream. Alzheimer’s Disease is a devastating illness that causes confusion, memory loss, and language problems. Unlike other forms of dementia, once Alzheimer’s strikes, a nutritious diet is not enough to reverse the damage. That’s why it’s so important to reduce your levels of homocysteine and fortify your body with Vitamin B-12 and folic acid, before the disease even has a chance to strike.

There are basic needs such as food, warmth and shelter that we all share as human beings. Maybe you donate money or time to a charity that helps provide just those things (and if you are not currently doing so, you might want to ask around for a worthy organization that provides basic needs for the less fortunate).But there are other needs - often invisible needs - found in the people around you. It’s almost certain that the people you meet and interact with carry some amount of stress, discomfort, illness, or worry. You can help those around you by being sensitive to these unspoken needs and being an open ear, a warm hug, and bright smile for those who need it most. Asking questions“How are you?” is sort of a routine question these days. Get specific. If you know about a particular worry someone has, ask about it if it’s appropriate. Or ask what the person did yesterday; this invites a more specific response and may clue you in to a particular need in that person’s life. ListeningAsking questions doesn’t mean much if you don’t listen to the response. Devote your full attention to the person speaking to you. Make eye contact. In your mind, make mental connections with the person’s difficult situation and relate it to something similar in your own life. What did you need most from others at that time? PrayingNot only should you pray for the needs of others, but if you know you could be a little more sensitive – and most of us could be – go ahead and ask God to help you in this area. You’re here to do His will, after all, and helping those around you is always on His agenda for your life. TriVita’s Sublingual B-12, B-6 & Folic Acid.™ contains the perfect mixture of vitamins needed to boost your mood and energize your day. As you listen to others and become more sensitive to their needs, see if any of their needs include words like energy, or better mood. If you’ve been helped by TriVita’s patented B-12 tablets, why not pass it along to someone else as a Gift of Health?

Maybe you donate money or time to a charity that helps provide just those things (and if you are not currently doing so, you might want to ask around for a worthy organization that provides basic needs for the less fortunate).But there are other needs - often invisible needs - found in the people around you. It’s almost certain that the people you meet and interact with carry some amount of stress, discomfort, illness, or worry. You can help those around you by being sensitive to these unspoken needs and being an open ear, a warm hug, and bright smile for those who need it most. Asking questions“How are you?” is sort of a routine question these days. Get specific. If you know about a particular worry someone has, ask about it if it’s appropriate. Or ask what the person did yesterday; this invites a more specific response and may clue you in to a particular need in that person’s life. ListeningAsking questions doesn’t mean much if you don’t listen to the response. Devote your full attention to the person speaking to you. Make eye contact. In your mind, make mental connections with the person’s difficult situation and relate it to something similar in your own life. What did you need most from others at that time?

Forgot your wallet? Misplaced your purse? It’s easy to forget a thing or two, especially when you’re under stress or feel overwhelmed with details. Follow these tips to give your brain a break:Write it down:When you write things down, it helps you remember. And if you still forget, at least you’ll have the information written down. Keep notepads by the phone, in your car and a small one in your pocket or purse. Leave yourself notes:Write down notes to yourself and stick them in unusual places where you’re sure to see them -- if you need to remember something before you leave, put a big note on the door knob. Use memory tricks:If you need to remember a list of things, use the first letter of each phrase and spell a word. For example, if you need to take your cat the vet, arrange the flowers, and balance your checkbook, take the first letter of each phrase and spell “C-A-B.” It’s easier to remember one word than 3 phrases. Make lists:Lists not only help you remember, but help you organize. As you’re writing your list, you can separate it into categories like: to-do, to-buy, etc. This makes it easy to combine tasks, which will save you trips. Pratice:Practice really does make perfect. Playing puzzle and memory games will exercise your mind, make you sharper and improve your memory. Chances are there is someone in your life who would love to challenge you to a game! Use alarms:Use the alarm on your clock, watch, oven, cell phone, or PDA to remind you. Sometimes a loud, annoying buzz is all you need to remember to do something.

And total cholesterol was also affected – 121 mg/dL for breakfast eaters, compared with 133 for women who didn’t eat breakfast. Eating breakfast also seemed to improve the way insulin works in the body, compared to not eating breakfast, leading researchers to believe breakfast may help lower diabetes risk.Over time, not eating breakfast may influence heart disease risk, according to researchers, since both insulin and cholesterol levels influence risk.

Why? Because nearly half of all people in North America make New Year’s resolutions – and the most common resolution is to lose weight. Within a few weeks the number of people sticking to their resolve declines dramatically. Given the importance of improving our behavior, an encouraging word from an ally may be just the thing we all need to keep our resolve!Mechanics of weight lossLet’s review the best advice for weight loss that we have gathered from expert sources over the last several years. How . Reduce your caloric intake to match your basal metabolic rate (BMR). BMR represents the number of calories your body needs at rest; in other words, your body burns these calories through basic functions. So, BMR represents the ideal number of calories you should eat in a day.BASAL METABOLIC RATE (BMR) CALCULATORBMR represents the ideal number of calories you should consume in a day to maintain your weight.Females:(_____________________x10) + ___________________________ Your Current Weight                       Your Current Weight                      Males:(_____________________x10) + 2 x_________________________ Your Current Weight                       Your Current Weight                      . Increase your activity to burn one to two pounds of fat per week. When . Never eat within two hours of bedtime. . Morning exercise is a bit better than evening exercise. . Never consume more than 400 calories in an hour. What . Eat according to an organized plan. For example, the South Beach, Ornish and Mediterranean diets all provide customized dieting tools. . Do both aerobic and resistance exercises most days of the week. Why Your sense of purpose will help drive your success.Speed bumpsSomewhere along the way you are going to experience discouragement, disappointment or despondency. It may be when: . You hit a weight loss plateau. . You see others doing what you used to do and the old habits pull at your heart. . Your inner voices – I call them my “council of critics” – start to tell you lies about failure and success. What do you do when you hit a speed bump?The answer to this question does not lie in the “how, when, what” of weight loss. The answer lies in the “why.” Your personal “why” gives you energy. It inspires you, motivates you, and drives you to complete your goal. Remember to let your desire fuel your action; let your actions harmonize with your sense of purpose. Simply be resolved to live a life of purpose and you will have the energy to get beyond the speed bumps.Common setbacksUnsupportive family: Losing weight with an uncooperative family is very difficult. In fact, diet failure is far more common among people with kids at home than among empty-nesters. A great solution is to turn those sources of distraction into cheerleaders. Recruit your family into your support group. Ask them for help and you may be surprised how helpful a supportive family can be.Parties and gatherings: Parties and family gatherings are another trigger for setbacks. Food and a festive environment are catalysts for overeating and skipping exercise. Careful planning in advance can really help with food selection and an exercise schedule. And if you do overindulge, remember the “calories in, calories out” rule and increase your exercise for a week or two to burn off the extra calories.Emotional speed bumps: Depression, discouragement and despondency are also common triggers for diet failure. Remembering the 10 Essentials for Health and Wellness can be a good antidote. For instance, Essential #6 teaches us that we need to give and receive love for excellent health. Love moves us to commit ourselves to a life of purpose. Purpose is the reason for action. Therefore, love can help us avoid fear, shame and doubt. ConclusionWhen we commit ourselves to such noble pursuits, do they not deserve our very best attention? We need to define our purpose as the foundation for success. Purpose is an important motivation to help us reshape our thinking. Purpose is the antidote to self-sabotage. Ponder each of these 10 life-changing essentials for healthy living. You will soon see that each of these gems reflect the light you need to see beliefs that no longer serve your best interests. You can confront self-sabotage and slay the dragons that keep you from reaching your goals. Also, learning and living the 10 Essentials provides you with powerful tools to reshape your attitudes into the very ones that can help you to reach your goals, live the life you want and fulfill your purpose.Take Control of Your Health.

What happens to these toxins when they enter our body? Can toxins lead to liver or kidney disease? What are some early signs of liver and kidney toxicity?Early warning signsYour liver and kidneys cooperate with another detoxification organ: the lungs. Signs that your liver and kidneys are struggling and pushing the toxic overload through your lungs can include:. Breathing problems . Bad breath . Frequent lung and sinus infections . Allergies.Toxicity in the liver and kidneys affect another organ of detoxification: your skin. If your detoxification system becomes overloaded, your body will try to compensate for this overload by pushing some of this waste out through your skin. Early signs of this include: . Itchy skin . Bad-smelling perspiration . Discolorations.Eventually, you might even experience a breakdown in your skin when it can no longer handle this toxic load. A good example of this: When someone with diabetes has a toxic level of glucose, cracks can appear in the skin of the feet. What about kidney/liver disease?KidneysKidneys filter your blood and ensure that proteins and minerals are in the right balance. Too many proteins from an unbalanced, low-carb diet may injure the kidneys. Too many minerals, such as too much phosphorus from soft drinks will injure your kidneys, and too much sugar will damage your kidneys beyond repair. So, for good, healthy kidneys:. Drink pure water . Eat a balanced, healthy diet . Avoid concentrated sugars.Many toxins can destroy the kidneys, such as toxic levels of homocysteine and glucose. Still, one of the most common kidney toxins is aspirin, so it should be taken in moderation.The liverMany of the toxins excreted by the liver are either absorbed (taken out of your body) by fiber or reabsorbed into your liver. This is why it is so important to eat a high fiber diet and supplement your diet with fiber when needed. Many toxins can destroy the liver, such as those from alcohol and hepatitis virus. However, the number one reason for liver transplants is acetaminophen toxicity. That’s why I suggest minimizing consumption of any products containing acetaminophen.Toxic minerals such as lead and mercury can damage both the kidneys and the liver. Protect yourself from these serious diseases by isolating yourself from common toxins and insulating yourself with nutrients and fiber.Fiber and detoxificationOur liver has a four-step process for detoxification. 1. First, toxins enter the liver, typically from the intestines. They are changed in the liver by an enzyme called CYP, which stands for cytochrome. In the first stage of detoxification the CYP enzyme makes the toxin expand and creates a large surface area – like a sponge. 2. The second stage is to douse this sponge-like toxin with antioxidants and other special nutrients. 3. The third stage is to convert this fat-based sponge to a water base so that it can be attached to fiber. 4. The fourth step in detoxification is to push the fiber and the toxin out through the colon.Now you can see why fiber in our diet is so important. To properly detoxify we must have at least 30 grams of fiber in our diet every day. In many cultures, people ingest 60 grams or more of dietary fiber every day. These groups have the absolute lowest cholesterol on the planet, as fiber helps detoxify cholesterol as well.Take Control of Your Health. Always be alert for early warning signs of toxicity .

Lean body mass fuels our metabolism. Unfortunately, a chronic wasting condition affects many seniors. The condition is called sarcopenia. What causes it and what can we do to prevent and even reverse it?Sarcopenia – chronic wastingA deficit in lean body mass (muscles, organs, bones, etc.) is called sarcopenia. Energy is born in your muscles and other lean body mass. It is created to meet the needs of the day. People actually program their energy metabolism by their activity level. In other words, if you regularly expend a certain amount of energy every day, your body will start anticipating this. Your metabolism will create the lean body mass and produce the energy needed to meet the regular tasks of the day. Energy requires fuel. A healthy person will have a hunger equivalent to their energy needs. The hunger ceases and you feel satisfied when nutrient levels – especially fats – have reached the general requirements for fuel anticipated by your body. Interestingly, in a healthy person certain cravings will direct their appetite to foods containing the nutrients they lack. Most of us have obliterated our delicate sense of taste with added salt and sugar. We have erased the ability of our body to communicate through cravings.These are three main components for metabolism and building lean body mass: 1. Peaceful sleep 2. Nutritious foods 3. Purposeful daily activity. Without these three elements your body simply does not have the resources or even the need to build lean body mass. Building up does not keep pace with wearing down. As the balance of metabolism tips toward muscle loss instead of muscle gain, a person is at risk of sarcopenia.Purpose, sleep and nutrition“BioMarkers” also discusses how the human body can begin to shut down after retirement when there is a lack of purposeful daily activity. This is accompanied by a reduced ability to sleep and eat. With less whole food in the diet, fewer nutrients are ingested and vitamin deficiency is very common.A real key for healthy aging is reclaiming your sense of purpose in life. When we are younger, this sense of purpose is often expressed in caring for a family or pursuing a career. As we age, new activities may replace the endeavors of our youth:. Adult education . Volunteerism . Mentoring. Additionally, a regular exercise program becomes very critical as we age, and we should pay more attention to a healthy diet every day and peaceful sleep every night.The supplements of healthy aging include four critical components:  .  A balanced multiple vitamin/mineral supplement to protect against nutrient deficiency  .  An essential fatty acid supplement to reduce inflammation in the arteries and rehydrate the brain  .  A Vitamin C supplement to serve as an antioxidant reserve and to help keep the immune system active  .  A B-12 supplement to help keep energy levels up and the mind bright.

Most people are shocked to learn how little correlation there is between elevated cholesterol and heart attacks. Let’s look at the benefits of cholesterol, why some may experience elevated cholesterol, and heart attack markers that are more accurate in predicting heart attacks than cholesterol levels.“Good” cholesterol?We typically talk about blood lipids in terms of total cholesterol: LDL (bad) cholesterol and HDL (good) cholesterol. We use the relative values of each of these fats in our blood to determine where we stand in terms of disease risk. Unfortunately, these numbers are misleading in half of the cases, leading to a false sense of alarm or security.Cholesterol serves as the raw material from which your body makes many hormones. Vitamin D is made from cholesterol and many life-ending diseases are associated with a deficiency of Vitamin D.In truth, all cholesterol is good in the proper balance – even LDL! Cholesterol-rich tissues such as brain cells rely on the fats delivered by LDL in order to function at their best. LDL brings the cholesterol from the liver to the place where it is needed; HDL carries unused cholesterol back to the liver for storage, recycling or excretion.Why cholesterol levels rise .  Increased demandThe most common reason why cholesterol levels rise is to supply an increased demand. For example, when your body needs to nourish brain cells or build hormones or Vitamin D, special messengers will be sent to request cholesterol release from the liver to meet the demand for this important raw material. Once your needs have been met, your body should reduce cholesterol production. However, with unrelenting stress and unyielding demands on our limited resources, the message to stop producing cholesterol may never get through..  StressStress is one common reason why cholesterol levels rise..  Low-fiber dietAnother reason is that we eat a low-fiber diet. Cholesterol is recycled from the liver through the bile into the intestines and back to the liver. In a diet with minimum fiber levels (under age 50: 25 grams for women, 38 grams for men; over age 50: 21 grams for women, 30 grams for men) the excess levels of cholesterol will be absorbed and eliminated. In low-fiber diets the cholesterol is reabsorbed and recycled. The system becomes “closed” and levels rise..  HypercholesterolemiaA third, less common reason for elevated cholesterol levels is fatal familial hypercholesterolemia – a rare genetic condition that causes cholesterol levels to rise uncontrollably. Statin medications were designed to combat this condition. Reducing cholesterol and heart attacksAs mentioned at the outset, cholesterol levels alone do not serve us very well as determinants of heart attack risk. Homocysteine (HCY) levels are much more accurate in predicting who is at risk, and C-Reactive protein (CRP) is the best predictor for heart attack (as well as many other really bad conditions!).Elevated cholesterol levels may be reduced with fiber such as TriVita’s Peaches and Cream; elevated homocysteine levels may be reduced with products such as TriVita’s HCY Guard. C-Reactive protein has been reduced quite consistently with essential fatty acid supplements such as OmegaPrime (1–6 grams daily). In medical literature, Omega-3 fats are consistently associated with reduced inflammation and reduced heart attack risk. Interestingly, some people respond well to fish oil while others respond better to flaxseed oil – a key reason why both ingredients are in OmegaPrime. Learning to listenHigh cholesterol levels on a blood test should be viewed as warning signals from our bodies. Elevated homocysteine sounds a louder alarm and high C-Reactive protein levels sound the loudest siren of all. We can translate these alarms into valid communication by learning what each lab value means and learn how to address them in terms of nutrients and nurturing.Take Control of Your Health.

Of course, it’s that amazing muscle that sets the rhythm of life: the heart.To keep our hearts beating strong and long, experts recommend several proven, simple approaches. You’ve probably heard many of them (and if you practice TriVita’s 10 Essentials for Health and Wellness, you’re already doing a lot to stay heart-smart). But one vital area – proper nutrients – may not always be part of the picture when it comes to lowering the risk of heart disease.#1: vitamins like “C” are keyIt’s a sad fact of modern life: Much of our food is so processed and preserved that it doesn’t really nourish us. So, we often miss out on the essential vitamins and minerals needed for good health. This is why it’s so important to take quality supplements that promote a healthy heart... especially Vitamin C.Vitamin C helps our bodies in several key ways:• Helps grow and repair tissues• Needed to form collagen for skin, scar tissue, tendons and blood vessels• Aids in healing wounds• Repairs and builds cartilage, bones and teeth.If you asked your heart, though, it would say that Vitamin C’s best work is as an antioxidant. This means it blocks some damage caused by oxidation inside the cells of our bodies. The heart is dangerously vulnerable to this damage, which is often indicated by high levels of homocysteine (HCY).Unfortunately, our bodies can’t make Vitamin C or store it. So, if you don’t always get the C you need from food, it’s important to take the highest quality Vitamin C supplement available:Non-Acidic Vitamin C Crystals and Time- Release Tablets from TriVita. (For a great savings offer, see the ad on this page).#2: help your heart with knife and forkIt’s true: You can eat your way toward (or away from) better heart health. Try to limit the trans fats and hydrogenated oils in foods like margarine, fast foods and fried foods. Also, cut down on refined sugar from cakes, cookies and candy. To lower cholesterol, cook with extra virgin olive oil and garlic for flavor.#3: Make exercise part of lifeTo help keep life – and your heart – pumping along, make exercise a regular routine: try for three to four times a week, for at least a half hour per activity. Remember to start off slow, stretch before and after exercising, and drink plenty of water. Be sure to check with your healthcare professional before beginning any exercise program.#4: Don’t light up, lighten up To lighten the load on your heart, don’t light up. If you smoke, do all you can to stop, and to avoid exposing yourself to secondhand smoke. Both of these can cause heart disease.#5: Check in with check-ups Your regular health check-ups should include blood tests for four different substances that can indicate possible heart disease. These are:cholesterol, triglycerides (fats), homocysteine and C Reactive Protein. Let these fi ve steps move you toward a healthier heart, a healthier you.French MontrevilleSkype ID# Provenmedias1-617-487-4340http://www.myempoweringteam.ws/Independent TriVita Business Affiliate, Trivita ID# 13011183This product has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

She said, “I am on the Seafood Diet. When I see food, I eat it!”For the longest time, the Western Diet has been the only diet type for most of us. And that often means oversized food portions which contain higher levels of fat, salt and sugar. We also tend to eat fewer portions and varieties of fruits and vegetables and much less fiber than is healthy for us.So, how can we make our diet – and, therefore our bodies – more healthy? Here are some dietary approaches that will help you break away from the burger, fries and diet soda routine and help you feel better today, healthier tomorrow.The DASH DietA joint statement from the American Heart Association, the American Cancer Society and the American Dietetic Association says that “We need to eat more fruits and vegetables.” These prestigious organizations also recommend that we eat less salt and fat and more fiber. They call their approach the DASH Diet (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension).The DASH Diet was developed by the NIH (National Institutes of Health).The NIH looked at diets from around the world to find those that reduced the risk of heart attack and stroke. What they discovered is that the same diet that is good for the heart is also good for so much more, including the blood sugar and the immune system and even helps to prevent diabetes and cancer. The NIH took some of the characteristics of several effective diets and combined them into one: the DASH Diet. It’s truly the first effective alternative to the Western Diet.Mediterranean DietOne of the diets that the NIH examined is called the Mediterranean Diet. The Mediterranean Diet is focused on abundant fruits and vegetables and low to no saturated fats (the primary fat is olive oil). Many books have been written on the Mediterranean Diet since 1945, but my favorite book is The Sonoma Diet. The authors of The Sonoma Diet are true food artists. The presentation of the Mediterranean Diet from their perspective is absolutely delicious!The Pritikin Program and Ornish DietAnother low saturated fat diet was presented by Nathan Pritikin some years ago (updated by Robert Pritikin) as The Pritikin Program. Rather than being merely low-fat, the Pritikin Diet is pretty close to ‘no fat.’ In this, it mirrors the approach taken by Dean Ornish in the book Reversing Heart Disease. Both of these approaches have proven themselves superior in stopping, then reversing clogged arteries. Both diets are primarily vegetarian and come in a therapeutic model and a more inclusive program for daily use.Adkins and South Beach DietsOn the opposite end of the fat spectrum is the Adkins Diet and modified version of the Adkins Diet, the South Beach Diet. While not having the scientific framework of the Mediterranean, the Pritikin and the Ornish programs, the South Beach Diet is designed by a cardiologist. His menu plans seize the weight loss benefits of the low-carb revolution started by Adkins, but with the common sense of a physician accustomed to seeing advanced heart disease. He includes a generous recommendation for low-starch vegetables and some fruits.Choose a healthier dietThe DASH Diet allows for a little fat, the Mediterranean Diet a little more and the South Beach even more. The Ornish Diet is low fat and the Pritikin Diet is even lower. Since each of these approaches are effective at reducing our risk for heart attacks, strokes, cancer and diabetes, what are the commonalities that make them work so well? Primarily it is the amount of plant food encouraged by each diet.So, no matter what diet you choose , eat lots of fruits and vegetablesPlant food (fruits and vegetables) are divided into high water-content foods and low water-content foods. High water-content foods are primarily fruits and vegetables. Low water-content foods may include starchy vegetables as well as legumes, nuts and seeds. Plant foods contain little or no saturated fats; they are high in fiber and they are nutrient-dense. According to the best minds and the most abundant research, everyone needs to eat at least five servings of vegetables and fruits every day. Women should aim for seven servings of vegetables and fruits and men should target nine servings of vegetables and fruits every day.Remember, the Western Diet is no longer your only choice. You can eat healthy and still enjoy a wide variety of very tasty and nutritious food options by investigating the alternative types of diets presented in this article.French MontrevilleSkype ID# Provenmedias1-617-487-4340http://www.myempoweringteam.ws/Independent TriVita Business Affiliate, Trivita ID# 13011183This product has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

And, not everyone can or should take these pharmaceutical medications. That’s why, if you or someone in your life struggles with mood issues, it is vital to work on ways to control stress, remain very active, and get a balanced diet, including appropriate supplements, in particular B-12.Studies have shown that those who have a B-12 deficiency can experience symptoms caused by decreased mental and nerve functioning. These symptoms can include mental confusion and forgetfulness, mood swings and even psychotic behavior like seeing and/or hearing things. A B-12 deficiency can also lead to shaky movements and walking unsteadily (ataxia), loss of bladder control, vision problems and muscle weakness. Because of these associations, one of the first things I do when people complain of these problems is make sure they are getting enough of the essential vitamins like B-12.Who’s at risk, what you can do If you’re an older adult, a strict vegetarian, or have thyroid, liver or kidney problems, you’re at risk for B-12 deficiency. As we age, our bodies may become less able to absorb some vitamins efficiently, especially in the case of Vitamin B-12. Without enough B-12, other vitamins like folate and B-6 cannot function normally within the body.As a doctor, I know the importance of maintaining appropriate levels of these essential vitamins, especially Vitamin B-12. That’s why I encourage you to join the millions of people every day who take TriVita’s Sublingual B-12, B-6 & Folic Acid.™The original, patented formula behind Sublingual B-12 gives you an excellent, of the daily recommended intake of B-12, B-6 and Folic Acid. Unlike injections, or pills that you swallow, Sublingual B-12 dissolves under the tongue. That’s the painless, easy way to make sure it gets into your bloodstream to give you maximum absorption and maximum benefit.A note of caution: There are lesser-quality B-12 brands on the market that may promise more mental clarity, mood balance and energy, but they may not deliver. When you choose TriVita Sublingual B-12, you get Dr. Libby’s original, patented formula, manufactured to pharmaceutical standards.It’s encouraging to work in a medical community that continues to discover the important links between vitamins and mental health.
