Want an easy way to walk more? 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.

Don't Be Slowed Down by Weight Loss Speed Bumps
This is the perfect time of year for an encouraging article on keeping your weight loss goals. 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 loss
Let’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) CALCULATOR
BMR 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 bumps
Somewhere 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 setbacks
Unsupportive 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.
Conclusion
When 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
. Plan a balance of calories and activity for lifetime weight control
. Eat the optimal amount of fruits and vegetables daily
. Men: 9 servings
. Women: 7 servings
. Children: 5 servings

How to Help Avoid Liver and Kidney Pollutants
In a previous Weekly Wellness Report we discussed the toxins that come into our body through our drinking water. 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 signs
Your 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?
Kidneys
Kidneys 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 liver
Many 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 detoxification
Our 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
. Isolate yourself from common toxins
. Support detoxification by drinking pure water
. Help keep homocysteine to a minimum with HCY Guard
. Supply your body with the antioxidants you need every day
. Adaptogen 10 Plus
. Super Antioxidant Complex
. Help reduce pollutants with dietary fiber such as Peaches & Cream Fiber

CUT YOUR RISK of heart disease
“C” how simple: Five smart ways to keep your health on a steady beat
What’s at the heart of good 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 key
It’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 fork
It’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 life
To 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.

Could B-12 curb the Bipolar “epidemic?”
Key studies indicate that this essential vitamin can help treat a growing disorder by Dr. Scott Conard, M.D.
For years, my colleagues in medical research have been looking into the links between vitamins, minerals and mental disorders. Is there a link between conditions like bipolar disorder and Alzheimer’s disease, and could they be better controlled if everyone enjoyed enough of the essential nutrients necessary for productive, healthy lives?
While this research is still underway, we do know that the number of people, young and old, being diagnosed with bipolar disorder (it used to be called manic-depression) continues to climb. Mental health experts estimate that some 5.7 million adults are affected by the highs and lows of this very serious problem. The trend is especially disturbing when you look at what’s happening with children under 18. A research paper published in a psychiatric journal recently reported this shocking statistic:
The number of youths diagnosed with bipolar disorder is 40 times higher than it was 10 years ago. So it isn’t surprising that some are calling this mood disorder an epidemic. You might have even seen a Newsweek cover story on this topic in a recent issue.
Dramatic evidence that a vitamin powerhouse can help boost mental w...
Bipolar disorder is classified as a medical illness, and those who suffer from it experience extreme swings in mood, energy and ability to function.
While strong prescription drugs are often prescribed to treat this problem, there can be dangerous side effects. 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. As you continue your own Sublingual B-12 daily regimen (and recommend it to others),

Don’t let holiday stress get the best of you.
The best definition for stress of any kind is change. Stress can be from changes outside our body (temperature, sunlight, noise, etc.) or from inside our body (hunger, dehydration, lack of rest, etc.) and even from our own thoughts (social expectations, time pressures, financial worries, etc.). With so many changes occurring during the holidays – and on so many levels – it is always wise to talk about stress that occurs around this time of year.
The destructive power of stress
The term “stress” was originally used as an engineering term. It describes the destructive forces acting on specific structures. For instance, stress was the term used to describe the effect of weight on a bridge. Stress describes the weight on the bridge coupled with extreme winds and complicated by temperature extremes – the combination of all destructive forces trying to tear apart a structure.
Is that not the way people feel when they are under stress?
Don’t you feel like you are being pulled in every direction until you are pulled apart? “Stress” is a good description of the distress of our mind and body brought on by internal and external destructive forces.
The healing power of homeostasis
Humans are remarkably resilient; we adapt to new situations with relative ease. This is because of a body process called homeostasis. If stress is pulling us apart, homeostasis is putting us back together. As long as homeostasis has access to all of the resources its possible to not feel the destructive power of stress.
The keys to homeostasis:
Having all of the possible nutrients available all of the time
Being perfectly rested
Being optimally hydrated every moment
Feeling completely supported and able to cope with any emotional demand at any given moment.
A nutrient reservoir like this will allow homeostasis to draw resources from our “bank account” and use them to satisfy the demands placed upon us.
It you are lacking in any demanded resource, a special function of homeostasis will be engaged. I like to call it the Robin Hood function: it allows our body to rob one area to support another area. This is often seen in the special stress adaptation called “fight or flight.” Fight-or-flight response is like emergency spending with credit cards. Sooner or later the debt must be repaid.
In the Robin Hood function the debt comes at an extreme price. It is not uncommon for a body under stress to sacrifice an entire organ or organ system to maintain balance in another system. For example, your muscles or bones may be robbed to supply nutrients needed for the stress response. Homeostasis must be maintained, even if this is at great sacrifice.
Holiday stress?
With this image in mind it is no wonder that people feel pulled apart around the holidays: there are just too many changes and too few resources available to meet the demands of homeostasis. Stress pulls us apart and our health suffers.
Since health resources are accumulated slowly and spent rapidly it makes sense to re-classify “holiday stress” as just plain stress! The methods for dealing with any kind of stress are the same no matter what time of year it is: nutrients and nurturing.
Anti-stress nutrients include a multiple vitamin/mineral supplement (I use VitaDaily AM/PM) and an essential fatty acid supplement such as OmegaPrime. Next, the known stress-busting effects of sublingual Vitamin B-12 and adaptogens serve to reinforce homeostasis like an economic stimulus package for our nervous system. If you feel stress pulling you apart, take more of these two special anti-stress nutrients.
Nurturing your health comes from vigorously applying the 10 Essentials for Health and Wellness. Plan ahead and budget your energy for times when demands are greater and you face more changes than usual. In the end, don’t be afraid to say “no” – it can literally be the difference between maintaining balance through homeostasis or being pulled apart by stress.
Take Control of Your Health
Take care of yourself every day; vigorously apply the 10 Essentials
Make sure you take an abundance of nutrients:
Multiple vitamin/mineral
Essential fatty acids
Remember the Stress Protection Pack:
Sublingual B-12
Adaptogen 10 Plus
Recruit emotional support – don’t be afraid to ask for help

Love Your Pearly Whites
Caring for your teeth and gums – no matter what condition they are currently in – is important to your health. Of course, most people want a mouth full of strong white teeth just so they look good; but dental care is about a lot more than flashing a bright smile.
Studies have proven that poor dental care can lead directly to heart disease. Your gums are particularly vulnerable to infection, and infections can get into your bloodstream – and from there to the rest of your body, including your heart – through gums that are unhealthy.
Take care of your smile today by:
. Making an appointment with your dentist if it has been more than six months since your last check-up and cleaning. Realize that dentist visits are not the terrible experience they might have been 10 or 20 years ago; fear of the dentist isn’t reason enough to risk heart disease!
. Brushing and flossing at least twice a day. It just takes three weeks to make flossing a lifetime habit. Remember - any bleeding that occurs the first couple of days will stop as your gums toughen up. Ask your dentist how to floss if you’re not certain you are doing it right.
. Drinking pure water. In addition to helping your entire body, drinking water helps clean your mouth during and after meals, and doesn’t promote tooth decay like soda and other sugary drinks.
Protecting your heart begins with protecting your mouth: what you eat and how you care for your teeth and gums makes all the difference. Your teeth are designed to last a lifetime; whether they do or not is up to you!
TriVita’s VitaCal-Mag D™, with five unique forms of chelated calcium, is excellent for helping to strengthen teeth and bones, and helping prevent the bone loss that leads to osteoporosis. Fortified with Vitamin D™, magnesium, phosphorus and other nutrients, VitaCal-Mag D makes a great addition to caring for your body!

Exercise and Alzheimers
If you're concerned about Alzheimer's Disease, you may want to get out your walking shoes. A new study shows exercise helps keep the brain healthier – and it may slow down the disease.
The study, published in April's issue of The Journal of Neuroscience, found that animals who exercised for five months had half as much amyloid plaque in their brain – a clumpy substance found in the brains of Alzheimer's patients, compared to couch-potato mice.
Experts suspect that exercise may keep the brain healthy, longer. Though more research is needed, other recent studies have linked walking with reduced risk of dementia – and taking part in leisure activities is also associated with less risk. Both of these studies were published in the September 2004 Journal of the American Medical Association .
. Exercise – activity helps your entire body function at its best, including your brain.
. Activity – the more you challenge your mind, the better. Learn something new, do a puzzle, or enjoy any mind-challenging activity.
. Leisure – spending time doing leisure activities may also help, according to research. So enjoy that game of golf or that lovely afternoon in the garden.

Boost your immune system
Boost your immune system
If you find yourself catching every bug around, your immune system may not be as strong as it should be. And with the weather growing colder and flu vaccine shortages, it’s more important than ever to boost your general health.
Everyday things can weaken your immune system – stress, smoking, pollution, an unhealthy diet, negative emotions, and lack of exercise. To boost your immune system follow these tips:
Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables
They’re full of free-radical-fighting antioxidants, which help keep your cells healthy. Add an extra fruit or vegetable to each meal, and take a specialized supplement, such as TriVita’s Super Antioxidant Complex™
Reduce Stress
Stress creates harmful reactions in your body that strain your system and make it easier to get sick. Write about stress, talk to friends, make a plan to deal with it, or simplify your life.
Exercise
Working out reduces stress while it boosts your immune system. You’ll also get the added benefit of increasing your general health. Even a brisk walk helps.
Wash your hands
Washing your hands often will prevent germs from spreading. Be sure to wash up before eating or touching your face - especially your mouth, nose and eyes.

Fall is here, and so are the sniffles. It’s not the cold weather that causes colds, though; it’s that you spend more time indoors with others who are sick. Here are six tips to fight the sniffles all season long.
Wash your hands. Doorknobs, hand railings, hand shakes and countertops are the worst offenders when it comes to transmitting cold and flu germs. The best way to counteract these exposures is to keep your hands clean and avoid touching your face between washings.
Drink water. Pure water, eight or more glasses a day, is essential for cleansing your system, purging it of toxins that include the germs that make you sick.
Boost your immunity. Your best defense against viruses is a good offense. Build up your immune system – your front line of defense – with antioxidants like Vitamin C.
Sleep peacefully. Your body requires eight hours of solid sleep to repair itself from the previous day’s stress. Research shows that getting to sleep before midnight is part of a healthy sleep cycle.
Be active. Boosting your immune system can also be accomplished by an aerobic activity. Aerobic activity includes walking, biking and swimming; an aerobic activity is short bursts of exercise that really get your heart going. Mix both into your daily routine to energize your immune system.
Eat nutritiously. Whole foods are the best way to get powerful virus-fighting nutrients into your body. Aim for dark green vegetables and citrus, in particular, to strengthen your immune system.

Could Vitamin C save your life?
A new study published in the April 2004 Journal of the American College of Nutrition found that diets rich in Vitamin C reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke and cancer. The study, conducted by University of California researchers, found that Vitamin C lowers levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), a marker of inflammation which increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer's and most other degenerative diseases.
Are at Risk?
Your risk for disease is higher if you have inflammation in your body, which is marked by high levels of C-reactive protein in the bloodstream. The more C-reactive protein your doctor finds in your bloodstream, the higher your risk. To reduce your risk, make sure you get enough Vitamin C.
