Supplements and Drugs: A Hazardous Combination
As I have become more involved in using functional nutritional therapy in my practice, I have come to realize that many people are still confused about the safety and effectiveness of various dietary supplements. Because these products are “natural”, many feel they are always safe to use. Although supplements and herbs can be safer than pharmaceutical drugs, they can still function as drugs in the body and should be used with caution and respect.
The Importance of Physical Activity
Regular activity, fitness and exercise, are critical for the health and well being of people of all ages. Research shows that everyone , young or old can benefit from regular exercise, either vigourous or moderate. Even very old adults can improve mobility and function through physical activity. It should be a priority for everyone. Millions of people suffer from chronic illnesses, that can significantly improve through activity. Exercise reduces the risk of heart disease, diabetes, colon cancer, and high blood pressure. People who are active outlive those who are inactive.

Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle Lose Body Fat - Product Review
At first glance, this product manuals title Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle was a bit distracting.

The overall premise is to burn the body fat with exercise and feed the muscle with good nutrition plans.

Capsulized Food: The Next Step in Food Evolution
Anyone who has spent a day fasting from food, or who has even skipped a meal, knows just how much time we save when we are not provisioning and consuming meals. Of course, efficiency is not our only concern when it comes to eating. If we were to articulate our fundamental requirements for food, we would probably come up with the following: 1 it should give us the nutrition our bodies need; 2 it should support our body transformation goals e.g. lose fat or gain muscle; 3 it should taste good; 4 it should be convenient. Foods that meet two or three of these requirements quickly become a mainstay in most diets.

A Brand New Year To Live
Have you ever started a new year with a New Years resolution I think many of us have, whether it is to be nicer to family, to be a better friend, co-worker, or even to start that long-awaited diet. Have you ever noticed by the 3rd week or so, you just don’t have the motivation or inspiration to keep it up I can’t recall one year that I have kept all of my resolutions. That could very well be a lack of motivation or just the fact that some of my resolutions are just unreasonable. This year I think it would be best to not make one at all. With the great hype of this last year being the first of the Millennium, its safe for me to assume it doesn’t really get easier, just more work with even more challenges. Now that’s not a bad thing just something I will need to put more work into. So how will I plan for this upcoming year I’m not going to this time around. Why make the big plans that require all my energy so that when “life happens” I only get disappointed. This year is going to be different. I’ve endured so much this last year, things that I didn’t plan to experience. My mother’s untimely death, and the ever pending duty of not finding true love for the 8th year in a row. Sure I’ve given it a whirl, but in the end being alone has faired to be the easiest and safest all around. And I’m starting to see that it is ok to walk the road of single parenting as long as I keep my focus on the kids and try my hardest to not let them down. I have grown enough to see that through life we don’t change into different people each year, we just mature in the way we see things differently. I can only appreciate each new thing I learn each and every day. It doesn’t take a New Millennium or a New Year to see that which affects our every day life affects our attitudes and the way we live. Thank God for new beginnings whether it’s today, tomorrow or a week from now. You have the ability to make changes in your life that will ultimately affect your tomorrow. Consider your choices a grinded stone that you could easily use to sharpen your life or turn your dreams and goals to dust. The choice is yours, are you ready to live
