Discover How To Find The Best Nutritional Vitamin Supplements

Wed, 13 Oct 2010 17:37:30 +0000

Discover How To Find The Best Nutritional Vitamin Supplements

Finding the best nutritional vitamin supplements is not an easy task with such a competitive marketplace, but once you know what to look for to get the most health benefits, it becomes much easier.

For starters, experts agree that a nutritional supplement containing a synergistic mix of herb extracts, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants and more is the most effective way and essential for most of us due to the low nutritional value of our food today.

We only get around one sixth of the nutrition from our food today compared to 50 years ago, mainly due to poor soil quality and intensive farming practices making quality nutritional vitamin supplements almost a necessity for maintaining optimum health.

One key thing to look for is natural ingredients, with no synthetic ones used at all. Synthetic ones like vitamin E are cheap to use but offer little benefit and can be harmful if taken long term. The natural vitamin E in contrast is a powerful antioxidant and is great for healing the skin.

Check the supplier’s website or the label with care to check just what nutritional vitamin supplements you’re getting. Also an enteric coating should be used to ensure you get the full impact and that the contents aren’t lost to the stomach acid like the many that just use a cheap veggie cap.

It is a shame that we need to take a supplement today but with an estimated 85% of us being deficient in vitamin and minerals, it is very important for us to do so and help avoid many deadly diseases like cancer later in life.

If you truly desire to live a long and importantly, a healthy life, then including quality nutritional vitamin supplements in your daily routine will help you achieve this.

Visit my website today to learn more about how to choose a quality nutritional supplement.

Nutritional Benefits of Whey Protein

Wed, 06 Oct 2010 09:37:49 +0000

Nutritional Benefits of Whey Protein

Adequate nutrition for your body before and after strenuous work-outs is important in order for you to reap the maximum benefits from your efforts. An increasingly popular way of achieving this is through the use of natural Whey Protein supplements.

Looking For A New Name For You-Whey Protein,Visit

http://www.dietbuzzer.com/blog/page/4

Nowadays many athletes, especially Body Builders, are utilizing natural Whey Protein supplements to replenish protein levels that are burned off through hard-core exercise routines. Amino Acids prevent deterioration in muscle tissue as well as provide endurance and assist in building mass. Proteins help supply these amino acids.

- So what exactly is Whey Protein?

Whey Protein is derived from cow’s milk and is also a by-product of making cheese, which in the past was typically thrown out as a waste product. We now know that Whey Protein is rich in amino acids essential for building muscle and overall good health.

Whey Protein is also naturally found in breast milk as well as some types of baby formula. Although protein is also found in other foods such as meats and vegetables, Whey Protein is known to have the highest digestible levels of protein that the body can use.

Whey Protein offers several other health benefits like a healthier immune system, stronger bones, weight loss, and just plain overall better well being. Whey Protein is also sometimes used to help speed the healing of wounds or burns.

- Are there risks or side affects?

Since Whey Protein is derived from food it doesn’t have any of the risks associated with man-made supplements. However, you can even have too much of a good thing if you’re not careful. Extreme high use can be more than your liver can handle. Moderation is always best.

Nutritional Vitamin Supplements

Wed, 06 Oct 2010 01:37:17 +0000

Nutritional Vitamin Supplements

Not Just Pills

It’s about time you placed your life at a premium. A good life isn’t just about the quantity of life, it’s also about the quality of life. Think about it: you don’t want to be bedridden or a vegetable for the remaining years of your life. You want to be able to live long enough so that you can enjoy the fruits of your labor and your life up close and not on the bed. Of course there are several ways to keep you healthy, the two main things being a healthy diet, and of course, exercise. But there’s nothing wrong with going the extra mile for your health. That can be achieved with the right nutritional and dietary supplements that helps keep your body fit. Supplements make sure that your body has enough of the vitamins it needs to keep functioning at the optimum. Vitamins are natural organic compounds so there’s no danger of consuming supplements that are synthesized and artificial. Everything is pulled from mother nature — plants, specifically, which are basically the only living creatures with the ability to manufacture their own food. We cannot, so we must rely on outside sources to keep ourselves healthy. Of course, we must exercise caution and exercise awareness of what we are taking in and how our intake affects our body.

For vitamins there’s a recommended dietary allowance which differs according to age and state of health. For example, a pregnant woman might be asked to take in specific vitamins to make sure that the fetus develops as healthy as possible with the least possible complications. Also, vitamin deficiencies occur from a nutritionally imbalanced diet. Let’s face it, in a world of processed foods, it’s hard to keep healthy. Vitamin supplements help curb the nutritional imbalance. To know if you are eating well enough, and to pinpoint the specific vitamins your body lacks, the best way is through a blood test. For most people, nutritional supplements that you take everyday and that come with all the basic vitamins and minerals is good enough. There’s no need for a blood test to do this. For others, however, there may already be bodily symptoms that express a certain deficiency. It’s always good to be reminded that an ounce of prevention is definitely worth more than a pound of cure. And prevention can be as simple as swallowing pills packed with vitamins. There have been millions of cases of heart disease and cancer that could’ve been prevented by a simple vitamin.

There is really nothing that can replace a healthy diet as good as — well, a healthy diet. Healthy meals of organic fruits and vegetables will definitely cost less in the long run, besides. However, nutritional supplements still play an important role aside from giving you “very expensive urine.” The human body requires at least 40 essential micronutrients which a healthy diet alone cannot supply.

Of course, too much of a good thing is — bad. You actually might just end up producing “really expensive urine.” It can help prevent cancer and heart disease, but too much of it will not only turn you a shade of yellow or orange, but in some cases can give you liver disease. So make sure to consult a physician to get the best combination of nutritional supplements that will best augment your body.

Whey Protein – What Are the Nutritional Benefits?

Whey protein is an excellent source of additional protein to build muscle strength and provide you with more energy. Since the body does not store protein it’s important to get your daily requirements. Although common sense would suggest that people looking to increase their protein intake should “just eat more proteins like meat”, most people just don’t have the discipline to do this on a consistent basis. And if they do eat enough protein, they tend to eat the unhealthy kind (ie. the high saturated fat version) that comes with a ton of negative side effects like weight gain and sluggishness. Taking a protein supplement like whey protein powders is an effective and easy way to make sure that a person is getting enough of this needed nutrient.

Many people choose to add to their protein intake with supplements. Others like to substitute a protein shake for a meal for the sake of time. A protein shake can increase energy and stabilize blood sugar levels. If you’re feeling tired and lethargic during the day, it’s worth giving a protein shake and try and seeing how it improves your energy level.

But not all supplements are created equal.

When looking for a whey protein supplement you need to consider the following things:

Find out the actual content of what you’re buying. There are many types of protein so make sure you’re getting the one that’s best for your situation.

Amino acids – Without the proper amino acids the proteins can’t be absorbed into your body efficiently. Make sure the product you’re buying has the right mix of amino acids so the proteins you’re taking are utilized correctly in your system.

Taste – No matter how high the nutritional content is, it’s hard to make yourself eat or drink something that tastes awful. There are some website stores that will send you samples for a small fee. This is great way to test the taste of the product without investing a lot of money.

Mixability: You’ll probably want to mix the powder to make shakes or smoothies so be sure the powder mixes well.

When you’re buying protein powder check the quantity sizes that are available for purchase. You will usually save money by purchasing in bulk amounts instead of small containers. If you’re adding it to your daily nutrition regime you’ll want to make sure you always have some on hand. Some experts suggest a ½ gram of protein per pound of body weight and increasing it to ¾ grams when doing intense body-building or exercise.

It’s always wise to consult your physician or a nutritionist before making extensive changes in your diet.

When shopping for health supplements make sure the website you’re buying from has been in business for awhile. You don’t want to send money to a site that was built yesterday. Always check to see if there’s an email address available where you can contact the company with questions or concerns.

If you’re wanting to raise your energy levels and enhance muscle strength, whey protein is a great supplement to consider. Drinking a protein shake is an easy, quick and efficient way of ensuring that you are ingesting enough protein.

Herbalife Formula 1 Nutritional Shake compared to ViSalus Vi-Shape Nutritional Shake

Tue, 14 Sep 2010 06:00:30 +0000

Herbalife Formula 1 Nutritional Shake compared to ViSalus Vi-Shape Nutritional Shake

Sometimes it shocks people to find out that a healthy diet protein shake can actually taste great, fill you up and help you lose weight. We are going to cover two popular healthy diet protein shakes that claim they can help you do just that. Who will be the winner? Will it be Herbalifeâ€™s Formula 1 or ViSalus Vi-Shape Nutritional Shake?

What is a Meal Replacement Shake?

Meal replacements shakes are pre-packaged powdered drink mixes. They are very nutrient dense and can be mixed easily and conveniently with water, milk, or juice and then taken in the place of a meal. They are convenient, inexpensive, and most taste pretty good.

Meal replacement shakes are probably the most valuable and underrated weight loss supplement. In fact, they really are not supplements at all â€” They are complete meals. Meal replacement shakes provide a perfect, compact meal that is high in protein, low in fat (some have no fat) are low in carbohydrates, and contain all your essential vitamins and minerals.

People are always looking for the magic solution to fast fat loss or building muscle, buying some metabolism boosting drink or diet pill that promises miraculous results. We gain body fat by having poor eating habits, so the only way to undo the damage is to reverse the cycle by developing good eating habits. Meal replacement shakes help us to get fast weight loss results while we are learning to make good diet choices.

For optimum fat-burning and muscle-building results, we need to consume a quality protein, moderate-carb, low-fat meal about every three to four hours. This equals about 5 meals per day. So, replace two or three of your whole food meals with a quality protein, low calorie, low carb meal replacement shake and you will drastically start burning off stored body fat.

So ~ lets compare two popular choices for meal replacement shakes : Herbalifeâ€™s Formula 1 Nutritional Shake Mix VS ViSalus Vi-Shape Nutritional Shake.

Diet Protein Shake Taste Challenge:

* Herbalifeâ€™s Formula 1 comes in 7 flavors, French Vanilla, Dutch Chocolate, Wild Berry, Tropical Fruit, Cookies â€˜n Cream, PiÃ±a Colada and Cafe Latte. You can add fruit to customize them more, but you cannot get around having to buy each of the different flavors to get a real variety of flavors in your meals.

* Vi-Shape Nutritional Shake comes in Sweet Cream flavor. You can easily enjoy this as-is or easily change the taste by mixing in your favorite fruits. You can also get ViSalus Health Flavor Mix Ins that add not only great flavors but great health benefits as too. The shakes can be enjoyed in thousands of different variation.

Winner: ViSalus Vi-Shape Nutritional Shake for being the most customizable to your taste preferences.

Diet Protein Shake Quality Protein Challenge:

* Herbalifeâ€™s Formula 1 includes soy protein isolate, which is said to be a heart healthy source of high-quality protein. Each serving has 9 g of soy protein isolate.

* Vi-Shape Nutritional Shake includes a unique, concentrated and highly absorbable blend of proteins called Tri-sorb protein. What makes this blend special is it has the highest quality whey available, whey hydrosolate along with the whey protein isolate and non GMO soy with the isoflavones removed. The tri-sorb protein is the fastest absorbed and utilized form of protein available. The protein has been processed to remove fat, lactose, carbohydrates and isoflavones to provide the most pure as possible concentrated protein. Each serving has 12 g of whey/non-GMO soy protein. Winner: ViSalus Vi-Shape Nutritional Shake because of its superior form of Tri-sorb protein. At 12 grams, it is superior because you actually need less of it to get superior results. Need more protein? Instead of using water for your shake use an organic nut milk, rice milk, cow milk or soy milk.

Which Nutritional Product is Best?

Thu, 02 Sep 2010 09:37:14 +0000

Which Nutritional Product is Best?

Nutrition is something which most of us are aware is essential to good health. I should rephrase that and say good nutrition is essential for good health, because poor nutrition leads to illness and poor health.

I have been aware of my body’s nutritional needs for some decades now. This is because I would go long periods of time without food. Not from necessity but because I used to fast. I tested various nutritional supplements that were on the market at the time and have to say the majority of them were just a waste of money. In this respect I can concur with medical opinion that multi-vitamins result in expensive urine.

One brand of multi-vitamin, however, did make a difference, so I began taking that on a regular basis. Some years later, another brand of multi-vitamin came on the market. A friend of mine, who happens to be a veterinary surgeon, has found, by taking these at optimum levels, they enable him to have a better day. Sadly, most people who take the product skimp on dosage and do not derive the benefit they should.

Myself, I went one step further. I tested a number of products that were on the market in powder form. I went without food and attempted to see how long I could last living on the powdered products, and still go for my thirty-minute run every morning. I found I could last up to three days and then my body would start to feel weak.

Eventually, I stumbled on a product that enabled me to go one whole week without feeling any weakness and gave me a sense of well-being. I used to swear by the product, telling people that this was what was given to people who were dying to keep them alive. I said this because of what I was told by hospital staff once. The pharmacist who originally sold the product to me said that the product was for old people not someone young like me. But I figured if it was designed for old people because of their failing health, it would have to be of benefit to me. Prevention is always better than cure.

I took the product on a regular basis over a number of years, but the product did not prevent me from suffering a worn out cartilage and early osteoporosis, particularly in my left leg. My left leg got so bad that the knee would lock and I was experiencing continual pain. The medical doctor, I sought advice from, arranged for some tests and then informed me that I would be a cripple in a couple of years and I should avoid stairs.

Surprisingly, vets know a lot more about nutrition than medical doctors. So I decided to have a talk with my veterinarian friend. He put me on to a product, which is given to dogs with arthritis. I love dogs, so I did not have a problem being numbered among them for treatment. You would not have believed it, in a matter of days, my leg was improving.

Now I was still taking my other supplements because it made me feel full of energy throughout the day. But this product the vet gave me was ghastly to eat, so I would put it in milk and began adding a couple of spoonfuls of brewers yeast to it so I could consume the stuff. After two months, my leg was feeling better but I began feeling like I was being poisoned. My vet friend was surprised I ordered another tin from him, but I noted that his wife, who was suffering the same problem as myself, did not take the product, she had a knee reconstruction instead.

As fate would have it, just after treating myself like a dog, a pharmacist introduced me to another product that had performed miracles for him. I started taking the product, and after five years, I had my bone density tested. Amazingly, my bone density is now that of a 20 year old.

While I am unable to mention the name of the product here, over the years I have become not only aware of the importance of nutrition, but also of the importance of getting the right nutrition.

Just having a few supplements is insufficient for good health. What we need is a optimal balance of synergistic nutrition that includes fatty acids, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. Also, in the polluted climate of today, detoxifying herbs to protect the body daily. This is what the product I use contains.

Why Should I Use Nutritional Supplements? – Can We Experience True Health With Usana?

Why Should I Use Nutritional Supplements? – Can We Experience True Health With Usana?

It is now commonly believed in the medical world that nutritional products are a vital part of a healthy eating programme. It has become increasingly difficult to obtain optimum levels of nutrients from food intake alone, especially anti-oxidants and minerals. This is mainly due to an increased demand by our bodies for these anti-oxidants and also as a result of depletion of nutrients in the food that we eat.

Vitamins and Minerals

The role of anti-oxidants in the body is to support healthy immune functions and to eliminate harmful free radicals. Free radicals are created as a waste product from chemical processes within the body (specifically respiration and digestion) and are highly volatile particles, which damage human cells. Over a period of time, constant attacking of our cells by free radicals can lead to the development of degenerative diseases and conditions. Therefore, an advanced intake of vitamins and minerals can help to reduce free radical damage and help in the fight against degenerative conditions.

Minerals also have many unique funtions within our bodies, acting on cells, tissues and organs. All of our bodily processes depend on minerals to initiate the enzymes, which perform those bodily functions.

Our demand for vitamins and minerals is now larger than ever due to the excessively toxic environment that we live in. Environmental pollution, toxic chemicals in the water supply and enhanced levels of radiation from the sun support our increased demand for anti-oxidants. In addition, stress, lack of sleep and bad food choices will increase free radical occurance. The food choices that we make today are commonly devoid of the important antioxidants and minerals that we require for our bodies to function properly.

Low Glycemic Foods

Diseases such as Obesity and Diabetes are commonly caused by poor food selection. Typically, high calorific foods encourage Obesity, but the role of high glycemic foods cannot be overlooked. High glycemic foods (high GI) are foods that sugar rapidly once inside your body, such as sweets, cakes and refined carbohydrates (white bread, white pasta, etc). These kinds of foods cause rapid increases in blood sugar levels. As blood sugar levels drop, you will experiences a drop in energy and urges for high glycemic foods (carbohydrate cravings). If you regularly give in to your cravings, this will increase your calorific intake. Over a period of time your body becomes less able to regulate after dramatic increases in blood sugar levels, which can in turn lead to the onset of type 2 Diabetes.

If you have weight loss plans or concerns about diabetes, then low glycemic, nutritionally balanced meal replacements and healthy snacks can offer you assistance.

What The Best Vitamin and Nutritional Supplements Should Contain

Sat, 28 Aug 2010 17:36:56 +0000

What The Best Vitamin and Nutritional Supplements Should Contain

Do you get frustrated by the sheer amount of vitamins and nutritional supplements out there today? With many being low quality and containing synthetic ingredients, here’s what to look for in a high quality one to give you the maximum health benefits.

It is a sad fact today that even if we eat a well balanced diet, we are only getting one sixth of the nutrition from it compared to 50 years ago. Over farming and poor soil quality has led to this startling decline and the reason why many in the health community recommend daily vitamin and mineral supplement.

The best ones contain a synergistic mix of natural vitamins, minerals and extracts specifically and expertly blended to give you the maximum health benefits. For example natural vitamin E is a fantastic antioxidant and has many powerful qualities to boost your health while the synthetic version used in most supplements has little to offer except potentially harmful effects with long term use.

Another important factor is the coating. The majority have a cheap veggie cap, meaning the contents are released in the stomach and that many of the benefits are lost.

An enteric coating is essential to protect the contents from the stomach acid and can instead be safely released in the upper intestine where the full impact can be had. The reason most do not have it is that it is more expensive to do, and most companies want to maximize their profits.

When you find the very best supplements not only will you be helping to ward off many potentially life threatening diseases in the future, but will notice many benefits very quickly including improved sleep, a sharper and clearer mind along with improved eyesight and sense of well-being.

So remember to not only look for vitamins in a supplement but one that contains many nutrients to help you maintain optimum health.

The Benefits of Using Nutritional Supplements

Thu, 26 Aug 2010 17:36:39 +0000

The Benefits of Using Nutritional Supplements

Does eating a healthy balanced diet alone provide all of the nutrients that the human body needs to function correctly? There are many different types and brands of nutritional supplements available to the consumer, but what are the benefits of using these products?

These are just some of the questions people may have regarding nutritional supplementation and the purpose of this article is to answer some of these questions.

There are many different types of nutritional products available today and the health and wellness industry is one of the fastest growing industries at the present time. This is due to many factors including the rise in obesity and the increasing numbers of individuals being diagnosed with degenerative diseases.

It is sometimes believed (especially amongst older generations) that eating a balanced diet and exercising regularly is sufficient to maintain good health, but there is also the conflicting argument that without supplementation, many people’s intake of vital nutrients falls far short of their body’s requirements.

Before I discuss these issues, I would first like to give a brief overview of some of the nutrients that the human body needs to function correctly:

Firstly there are the macronutrients. Macronutrients include Carbohydrates, Proteins and Fats. At the most simplified level, carbohydrates provide our bodies with energy, proteins are responsible for building and repairing muscle tissue and fats provide additional energy reserves and allow for the transportation of micronutrients around the body. Fats are also necessary for the production of certain hormones.

Secondly there are micronutrients. Micronutrients include vitamins (also known as anti-oxidants) and minerals. Each vitamin (A, B12, C, D, E, K, etc.) and mineral (Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Zinc, etc.) performs a specific role within the body and they are all required for good bodily function. Deficiencies in vitamins and minerals have been identified as one of the primary factors in the development of degenerative disease, as vitamins in particular are responsible for the removal of free radicals within the body.

Free radicals are harmful molecules, which are produced by chemical reactions within the human body, as well as by factors in our external environment. They attack healthy cells causing them to break down (degenerate), potentially leading to the development of degenerative disease in the long term.

As an example, it has been suggested that in order to promote optimum health, 400 IU (International Units) of vitamin E should be consumed on a daily basis. To put this into context, an individual would have to consume 14.5 kg of spinach each day to achieve this level. Alternatively, 1kg or almonds would provide the same oxidative defence for the human cells. This example should highlight that it is very difficult to consume 400 IU of vitamin E without incorporating nutritional supplementation. This value is significantly higher than the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for a number of reasons:

Firstly, RDAs were established in the 1940s and were guidelines to prevent diseases such as scurvy and rickets and are often considered to be somewhat out of date. In addition, the external environment in which we live today contains higher levels of pollutants, radiation and other harmful toxins, which significantly increases our need for anti-oxidants.

It is known that the levels of vitamins in fresh fruit and vegetables depletes over time, so in order to get the best anti-oxidative defence from our foods, we would have to consume them immediately after they were harvested. This is very difficult today due to the nature of supermarket’s distribution processes.

In summary, high quality multi-vitamin and multi-mineral supplements can be beneficial for everyone, to ensure the intake of adequate quantities of vitamins and minerals. This can support healthy body function, elevate energy levels and may also reduce free radical damage and cellular degeneration within the body.

Macronutrient supplements (i.e. proteins, meal replacements and healthy snacking options), also serve a purpose to many individuals:

An example would be for a vegetarian who may generally find it difficult to consume sufficient quantities of protein. In this instance, a Soy Protein supplement could be of use. Soy protein does not contain animal products and can provide all of the essential amino acids that the body requires for building and repairing bodily tissues.

For individuals looking to manage their weight, meal replacements can provide the correct balance of nutrients in a low calorie supplement. Meal replacements can be a convenient way for people with busy lives to regulate calorie intake.

Healthy snacking options may also provide an excellent means for receiving a good balance of nutrients with little or no preparation. It would generally be more beneficial to an individual’s health to consume a high quality healthy snack bar than to purchase a snack from a convenience store.

Therefore, the use of macronutrient snacks usually depends on an individual’s health goals and personal dietary requirements.

Bodybuilding Nutritional Supplements For Women

Bodybuilding Nutritional Supplements For Women

With the huge selection of nutritional and sports supplements available today, it’s often difficult to wade through all the hype to get to the optimum bodybuilding supplements for helping you reach your individual goals. As a woman, it can be even more challenging because most bodybuilding nutritional supplements are marketed to the dominant sex in the sport, men. Most products targeted toward women are more concerned with dieting and fat loss than actually building your body and packing on lean muscle mass. And let’s face it, all women have different goals when it comes to achieving their ideal body. Many of you are interested in simply slimming down while others love the look of hard round muscle packed on your tiny female frame.

However, there are some no-brainers when it comes to bodybuilding nutritional supplements regardless of gender. For instance, if you are going to be lifting mass weight and taking every muscle to the point of failure, it is vital you get enough protein. Protein supplements contain amino acids that are the building blocks of all that muscle. Without properly feeding the muscle-building beast inside you, you will quickly go catabolic. That is, your muscles will start feeding on themselves, and all your hard work will be in vain. There are conflicting opinions on what is the best protein and when is the best time to take it, but most agree that whey protein isolate for pre and post workout provides you the most benefit.

And speaking of amino acids, Branched chain amino acid supplements are another staple in the bodybuilder’s repertoire of pharmaceutical trickery. L-Leucine, L-Valine and L-Isoleucine comprise up to 1/3 of all muscle protein and are an important source of energy for muscle contraction. Most BCAA supplements combine these three components to promote protein synthesis and prevent muscle breakdown.

Next we have glutamine. Glutamine is a conditionally essential amino acid and is the most abundant AA found in the bloodstream. Glutamine aids the body in recovery after the high stress of heavy weight training. However the body’s ability to synthesize enough glutamine in these instances is exceeded by the need for it. Enter glutamine supplements! These bodybuilding supplements come in powder form and in capsules. There are even drink packs you can add to water with 1000mg of vitamin C on top of a 5g dose of glutamine. Glutamine allows bodybuilders to train more intensely and recover more quickly leading to faster muscle gain.

Women generally carry a higher percentage of body fat than men so in the world of women’s bodybuilding, fat burners are a staple. The most popular of these are ECA stacks, which contain Ephedra, Caffeine and Aspirin. Depending on the individual blend, these stimulant based fat burners give bodybuilders energy, speed up metabolism, and suppress appetite all of which help to burn fat quickly and effectively.

There are a plethora of other bodybuilding nutritional supplements available. Whether male or female, every bodybuilder’s cocktail of supplementation will vary based on their individual goals. Whether it be prohormones to manipulate hormone levels, low carb supplements to maintain a slimmer physique or high carb products to give you added energy for completing those grueling workouts, there are sports supplements to aid in taking it to the next level of bodybuilding perfection.

Migraine Headaches – The Most Commonly Used Nutritional Supplements For Migraine Prevention

Wed, 18 Aug 2010 05:58:57 +0000

Migraine Headaches – The Most Commonly Used Nutritional Supplements For Migraine Prevention

Migraine headaches exact a heavy load on society. According to the National Headache Foundation, migraine headaches affect more than 28 million Americans and cost society over billion each year. That is just the tip of the iceberg though. Migraines frequently precipitate depression, which is three times as frequent among migraine sufferers than non-headache victims (Fasmer, O.B., The Prevalence of migraine in patients with bipolar and unipolar affective disorders. Cephalalgia, 2001. 21(9): p.894-899). And don’t forget about the countless number of people whose quality of life has been severely damaged by headaches.

Traditional treatment methods are just not working without side-effects. We need to examine alternative treatments for migraines. We need to attack headaches at the root, we need to stop treating the effect and eliminate the causes of headaches. For years the common cry has been that headaches were caused by stress. From mine and others experiences as well we can agree that stress can be a cause, but it is hardly the only cause. It goes much deeper and is much more complicated than a simple platitude like that. Let’s take a look at some of the most common and promising vitamins for headaches, supplements for migraines, and alternative treatments for migraines.

Riboflavin

Riboflavin is also known as Vitamin B-2. It plays a key role in maintaining health in humans and animals. It is yellow or yellow-orange in color. In addition to being used as a food coloring it is also used to fortify foods such as baby-foods, breakfast cereal, pastas, processed cheese, fruit drinks and sauces. It is also widely used in vitamin supplements.

For over 30 years Riboflavin has been used as a part of the phototherapy treatment of neonatal jaundice. It has recently been used in a new treatment to slow or stop the progression of the corneal disorder keratoconus (corneal collagen crosslinking). There have been studies conducted on riboflavin and its affects on headaches. In both a European and American study riboflavin was shown to effectively treat migraines at a dose of 400 mg per day. (European study: C. Boehnke, High-dose riboflabin treatment is efficacious in migraine prophylaxis: an open study in a tertiary care center. Eur J Neurol, 2004, 11(7): p. 175-7. American study: A.J. Yee, Effectiveness of high-dose riboflavin in migraine prophylaxis, Neurology, 1999, 52(2): p. 431-2)

In a separate study performed by Sandor, Afra, Ambrosini and Shoenen riboflavin has shown that when combined with beta-blockers it may be a useful treatment of migraine headaches. (Phophylactic treatment of migraine with beta-blockers and riboflavin: different effects on the intensity dependence of auditory evoked cortical potentials. Headache,. 2000, Jan). In an open-label trial (no placebo control group), as reported by the Mother Earth News (MEN) web site (Natural Health/2007-03-01/Natural-Headache-Remedies), 400 mg a day for six months cut migraine headache frequency in half and decreased medication use. MEN goes on to say that “another study showed that three months of riboflavin led to a 50 percent improvement in almost 60 percent of the volunteers, versus a 15 percent improvement over the people taking a dummy pill.”

Coenzyme Q 10 (CoQ10)

First identified in 1957, Coenzyme Q 10 is also known as “Ubiquinone” because it is found everywhere in the body. The highest amounts are in the heart, liver and pancreas. The lowest amounts are in the lungs.

The first applications for CoQ10 were in 1961, when it was found that cancer patients were deficient in the enzyme. Research has shown CoQ10 to be a very versatile supplement for a number of other conditions such as heart disease and migraines. Recent studies have also shown that CoQ10 may help in the treatment of Alzheimer Disease (X.L. Wang, Co-supplementation with vitamine E and coenzyme Q10 reduces circulating markers of inflammation in baboons, Am J Clin Nutrition, 2004. 80(3): p. 649-55). Reports on CoQ10 and migraines have been very positive. From an article in the April, 2002 issue of the journal of the International Headache Society, Cephalalgia, encouraging results have been reported from an open label trial of CoQ10 as a Migraine preventative.

The article “Open label trial coenzyme Q10 as a migraine preventive” by Rozen, Oshinsky, Gebeline, Bradley, Young, Shechter and Silberstib from Cephalalgia 22 (2) p. 137-141 we are told “At present there are very few efficacious migraine preventatives and fewer without significant side-effects… Migraine can be a disabling disorder and migraine preventives have been shown to not only reduce headache frequency, intensity and duration but also to improve quality of life. Coenzyme Q10 is a naturally occurring substance and essential element of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. It has been the most extensively studied agent for the treatment of mitochondrial disorders and has been shown to have almost no identifiable side-effects in humans. There has been a recent interest in the role that mitochondria may play in migraine pathogenesis…The objective of this investigation is to assess the efficacy of coenzyme Q10 as a preventative treatment for migraine.” The dosage used in the study was 150 mg of CoQ10 daily. Key points from the trial included:

61.3% of the patients in the trial achieved at least 1 50% reduction in frequency of Migraine attacks by the end of the four-month trial.

It took time to achieve optimum results. Data from the study suggests that it takes 4-12 weeks to achieve more than 50% reduction.

Coenzyme Q10 is effective for both migraine with aura (classic migraine) as well as migraine without aura (common migraine).

Magnesium

Magnesium is a mineral that is used for many purposes. The hsbaltimore, Health Series Institue e-Alert (September 14, 2004) website informs us a good intake of magnesium may promote bone flexibility, help prevent type 2 diabetes and heart disease.Recent studies show that magnesium is also essential for keeping your teeth healthy. There have also been studies on a relationship between magnesium and headaches. A study by A. Trauninger (Oral magnesium load test in patients with migraine, Headache, 2002, 42(2): 0, 114-9) showed magnesium deficiencies to be common in those who suffer from migraines. Another study by A. Bianchi (Vitamin Horm, 2004, 69: p. 297-312) has found sufficient, though not definitive, evidence of magnesium’s ability to help treat migraines. Current recommendations are to take 500-1000 mg of magnesium per day.

The Bottom Line The three natural remedies for migraine headache discussed here all have shown promising results as affective natural headache remedies. When looking at alternative treatments for migraines, these three appear to be at the top of charts. But the two biggest advantages alternative treatments have over prescription medications is their lack of side effects, and the fact that you are not going to go broke trying these supplements for migraines. These points plus the positive test results shown should be reason to include nutritional supplementation to help treat migraines.

Becoming deficient in just one of these essential vitamins or minerals breaks down the metabolic pathway that produces optimum efficiency and performance declines. Not good! Daily consumption of a high-potency multivitamin/multimineral formula may help ensure the presence of essential cofactors necessary for thousands of metabolic reactions. Many people underestimate the importance of them. They think that since you can not get 10 pounds of muscle, it is useless to take them. But here is something very important. If your body is deficient in just one of the essential vitamins and minerals over a thousand chemical and enzymatic processes in your body could be impaired.

Why Take Natural Nutritional Supplements?

Mon, 16 Aug 2010 01:37:08 +0000

Why Take Natural Nutritional Supplements?

That’s a fair question, and one that deserves a fair answer. Well, if you’re someone who eats all the right amounts of foods which includes eating a healthy cross section of fruit and vegetables, then count yourself lucky. Or maybe that should be consider yourself in a minority?

Perhaps what most of us fail to realize, and that probably includes myself, is that while many of us think we are leading or following a healthy diet the truth is rather different.

Let’s try and put some perspective into the equation. A good deal of what we buy is processed food and has been refined before we get to eat it. This is the bit where we ought to mention that term ‘junk food’, namely food that’s high in fat and poor in nutrients.

I could and will go on in later posts about numerous other good reasons to take nutritional supplements, but the above point is a good starter.

To see what I mean you only have to read about the alarming growth of obesity in the many countries of the western industrialized world.

But, getting back to the purpose of this post, who amongst us can be certain we’re getting the right amounts of nutrients our bodies need to maintain optimum health? Governments give us a guide as to the recommended daily amount of vitamins and minerals that we should aim to consume via our daily diet which helps. There are people like health nutritionists who also dispense advice.

However, the reality is that none of us normal members of the public are experts at knowing if we have eaten enough of or the correct foods today that ticks all the boxes as far as the right amount from each of the vitamin and mineral groups.

With that in mind it’s hardly surprising that we are increasingly turning to nutritional supplements to ensure optimum health.

Changing Lifestyles With Nutritional Supplements

Changing Lifestyles With Nutritional Supplements

People need to eat properly to achieve goals in life, but some lifestyles are blamed for the condition that the body gets in that keeps them from performing at optimum levels throughout the day. Some people are resorting to using energy drinks to replace nutrients in the body but the nutritional values in some of the drinks are due to the lifestyle they are living.

People that are overworked rarely take time to eat a good lunch and rely on these drinks to provide energy to get through the rest of the day. By eating a healthy meal, three times a day, and energy levels could return to normal in no time, and at times the difference can be felt before the diner leaves the table. People that live a fast-paced existence are setting the stage for major medical problems in the future.

Food manufacturers are taking an active role in providing society with healthy meal alternatives that take little time to prepare. Some nutritional supplements are added to drinks that simply require the user to get healthy by opening a can. People who are overweight and lead a slower lifestyle could blame the weight gain on the inability to exercise, but they still try to keep healthy because they can still use these nutritional supplements to supplement an unhealthy diet plan.

Some physicians prescribe a written diet plan that has been fortified with nutritional supplements being placed in shakes. People who are undergoing radiation treatments for cancer commonly use this form of nutritional supplementation. One of the side effects of chemotherapy is nausea and nutritional supplements in liquid form seem to stay down in the stomach longer. The coating action of the liquids seems to provide patients with a method to access nutritional benefits without placing undue stress on other bodily functions

The invalid lifestyle can drastically change with the renewed energy found by using nutritional supplements everyday. Nutritional supplements can provide elderly people with stronger bones and minds and allow their nervous system to repair itself. Older people are more active and interested in life, thanks to the healing properties of nutritional supplements. Vitamins and minerals can do a body good but people have to adjust their lifestyle to get into a habit of taking them everyday.

Some people will change their lifestyles to healthier ones by avoiding fatty foods, and by considering all drive-in restaurants as taboo. Others will change drink orders to orange juice or milk in lieu of the coffee that has been their favorite drink for years. Some people live a lifestyle where meat consumption has never been an option and are living healthier lives because meat has never been a part of their diet. These simple lifestyle changes were purely voluntary.

When health degrades to a point where there are no choices left, then nutritional supplements by vein could be the only nutritional choice available to a patient. Unfortunately, at that point in life, physicians are often the ones that are left with making those lifestyle-changing decisions and families must stand back, rely on that judgment, and hope that family members will recover.

Nutritional Supplements For Pets – Petaminz Pet Vitamins

Nutritional Supplements For Pets – Petaminz Pet Vitamins

Ideally, nutritional supplements for pets especially for dogs must have the appropriate ratio of calcium and phosphorous in order to provide the optimum nutrition possible. These minerals play a very vital role for the functioning of muscles and nerves, transporting oxygen in the blood, and formation of bone and cartilage. In addition, magnesium is also a key component in aiding body’s absorption of other vitamins such as vitamin C, E and potassium. Potassium is very essential in maintaining the level of fluid and also needed for enzymes, muscles, and nerves.

Other key elements that you should look for in a pet supplement include copper, iodine, zinc, selenium, manganese as well as iron. These minerals may be required in lesser amounts but they are equally important.

Copper greatly helps in forming red blood cells and in assisting in the development of collagen and connective tissue, aside from that it also works as an antioxidant. For the functioning of the thyroid gland and making of thyroid hormone, iodine is very much required. Thyroid gland is a key factor in regulating the growth of your pets as well as its metabolism, while hemoglobin is produced by iron and copper which is the carrier of oxygen in the blood. Selenium is also an antioxidant and zinc is essential for healthy looking skin and coat.

Older dogs often suffer from arthritis, thus a pet supplement that contains glucosamine and chondroitin can be extremely helpful in dealing with this condition. These are totally safe for your dogs as well as support joints and can reduce damage to joint cartilage.

A premium quality, all natural pet vitamin include some other vital ingredients that offers health benefits for your dog. Ingredients such as kelp, seaweed, algae and brewers yeast are known as prebiotic and probiotic supplements. They give natural sources of antioxidants and vitamins, and helps in the effective digestion and absorption of nutrients.

Food Expert And Author Jonny Bowden Explains Nutritional Supplements

Food Expert And Author Jonny Bowden Explains Nutritional Supplements

This interview is an excerpt from Kevin Gianni’s Renegade Roundtable, which can be found at http://www.RenegadeRoundtable.com. In this excerpt, Jonny Bowden shares on nutritional supplements.

Renegade Water Secrets with Jonny Bowden, is a board certified nutritionist, personal trainer, motivational speaker, and author of: Living the Low-Carb Life: Choosing the Diet that’s Right for You, The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth: The Surprisingly Unbiased Truth about What You Should Eat and Why and his most recent book is The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why.

Kevin: There are so many supplements today to choose from. The costs can be high and I don’t know if they work. If you’re on a budget, what are the bare-bones supplements that you think that people should really be concerned about or should be using?

Jonny: If I had to pick one, if you put a gun to my head and I had to pick one supplement that would have the broadest-based shotgun approach to health that does the most things for the most people and that most people are lacking in it would have to be fish oil. Even a multiple vitamin, a lot of people on this call are eating really great. They’re eating a lot of raw foods. They’re getting enzymes and they’re eating yogurt or other naturally fermented foods and they’re getting some probiotics. Let’s assume they’re getting a ton of vitamins from their vegetables and fruits, although most people are lacking in some of them, but if you could only take one the omega threes just have the widest range of health benefits and are most needed by most people. So that would be my number one with a bullet.

There are others down the list. Certainly, multivitamins, magnesium. 75% of magnesium is getting a less than optimal level of magnesium. Probiotics are a good one. Digestive enzymes. There are a lot of different things and then of course, you get into the different health conditions and the different things and different challenges that different people have. If there are some heart issues or anything to do with — if anybody’s on a staten medication to lower cholesterol and that’s a whole other discussion, but if you are on one of there’s not even a doubt, you should be on co- enzyme Q10 supplementation. Absolutely 100% and if your doctor tells you otherwise change doctors. Staten drugs seriously deplete co-enzyme Q10. It’s a vital nutrient for the heart. If you’re on a Staten medication co-enzyme Q10 is at the top of the list.

For energy depletion there’s all sorts of different things. If people have blood sugar issues and I talk about all of this in The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth. Different natural prescriptions for supporting your health with different kinds of conditions and not necessarily curing a condition, but supporting your health and maybe being able to reduce medication or maybe being able to put something into remission or reduce the number of outbreaks of asthma attacks or acne or any of these different things. That can be helped by different dietary supplement strategies, but again, go back to what is the one thing that people on a budget, one thing that they can take. That said, I would
have to say fish oil.

Kevin: Any specific supplements for women?

Jonny: Well, certainly fish oil again, because that’s something both sexes need. If someone is pregnant, I think that’s number one with a bullet, because the developing fetus again, the brain is 60% by weight fat and most of that fat is DHA. So again, this is vitally important. I think folic acid is particularly important. It’s important for men and for women. I’m not one of those people who think that there’s a vast difference in what men and women need. There are some things like iron that men just shouldn’t be taking, but folic acid, if you’re of pregnancy age or whether you’re intending to get pregnant or not of pregnancy age you should be taking folic acid absolutely every day. If you drink, you should be taking folic acid every day. So this is another supplement that just has wonderful benefits in a myriad of ways, but certainly any one of pregnancy age should be taking that.

Then beyond that I think calcium, magnesium. I think we been oversold about how much calcium we need to take. I think that’s a whole different discussion, but I don’t think we need nearly as much calcium as we’ve been told. What we need to do is stop eating things that remove calcium from our system and then we wouldn’t need to take so much of it.

I’m more concerned that people aren’t getting enough magnesium. I think vitamin D is going to be the unsung nutrient hero of this decade. We’re just now seeing how low the recommendation has been compared to the value that this vitamin has and how much of the vitamin D deficiency epidemic we have in this country and how vitally important that is for health on many different levels. It has anti-cancer activity.

I was just interviewing for my radio show yesterday, the author of the book called The Blue Zones, which is what he did for National Geographic Explorer and he found four areas in the world: Sardinia, Okinawa, a remote peninsula in Costa Rica and the Loma Linda area of California, where the Seventh-day Adventists live. He found these four areas in the world that they called the blue zones, where people live to be a hundred they live in fantastic health. They have energy. There are people that are over a hundred years old that are tilling the fields. These pockets of long-lived healthy existence and they went and he investigated to see with the people might have in common. All of them live in sunny climates. All of them were getting a lot of vitamin D. Now there are a lot of things that they have in common, as well; very high plant-based diets, for example, a lot of activity and a lot of connections to other people. All of that stuff, but one of the central things was the vitamin D connection. So I think that’s a vitamin that almost everyone can benefit from, from taking more. We don’t do nearly enough with that. We get this ridiculous low RDA of 400 IUs a day is waste. It’s laughably low. That would be another one that we could benefit by.

Kevin: Why did you say men shouldn’t be taking iron supplements?

Jonny: Because we have no way of getting rid of iron. Menstruating women have a monthly cycle in which they lose blood and therefore, can get rid of some of the iron that accumulates in their bodies. Iron is very toxic to the body when it accumulates. So if you’re menstruating you have a way of getting rid of it. If you’re not menstruating, if you’re a postmenopausal woman or a man you shouldn’t be taking iron, because it gets into the system and it absolutely can oxidize. It can be a component of — there’s just a lot of connections to heart disease and all kinds of other things. You don’t want accumulated iron in the body. So I would say that for any man, a multivitamin without iron and for any postmenopausal woman a multivitamin without iron.

A nutrition supplement is added to the diet to compensate the deficiency. The supplement increases the intake of vitamins, amino acids, minerals, etc. Without proper nutrition, you wont be healthy and fit. Health and fitness go hand-in-hand and it is truly possible for everyone to improve their lives through dietary changes and regular exercise.

How To Use Nutrition Supplement?

These days, lot of people use some type of nutrition supplement. In 1996 alone, people spent more than .5 billion on dietary supplements, according to Packaged Facts Inc., a market research firm in New York City. Nutrition supplements are found in several forms: nutrition bars, tablets, capsules, powders, liquids, etc. A lot of supplements do not need any recommendation. You can buy them in health food stores, grocery stores, drug stores, or through online shopping. But you should be very careful about buying because many supplements available on the market do not meet FDA standards.

Cheap quality and imitation supplements are quite common and there is hundreds of scammer lurking everywhere, especially online, to cheat gullible consumers. Always buy from renowned and trustworthy manufacturers and dealers to ensure that you are not gulping down some unwanted or even dangerous preparations.

The good news is that there is also plenty of information available to help you make a choice about the best nutritional supplement for you.

According to the manufacturers, these powders contain high levels of protein and low levels of carbohydrates.

Even though conventional multivitamins and other dietary nutritional supplements are affordable and abound in drugstores and other retail, the “nutrition supplement juice powder” is very popular among many consumers all over the world.

The importance of diet and nutrition should be at the top of your to do list. Good nutrition is the start to optimum weight and good health that will last a lifetime.

Glutamine Powder – The Ultimate Sports Nutritional Supplements for Muscle Gain

Tue, 03 Aug 2010 09:37:40 +0000

Glutamine Powder – The Ultimate Sports Nutritional Supplements for Muscle Gain

A common ingredient in many protein blends, and increasingly now seen more often as a stand alone supplement, glutamine is an amino acid with a wide range of benefits. Glutamine is what is known as a conditionally essential amino. This means that although it can be produced by the body in moderate quantities, under certain conditions – in this case conditions of injury, illness, and stress, it cannot be produced in high enough levels to meet physiological demand and must be acquired from diet. However, although a common nutrient found in many foods, it is unfortunately fairly sensitive to heat and much is destroyed when food is cooked, making additional glutamine supplementation extremely beneficial.

Glutamine plays a role in many physiological functions including support of intestinal health, as fuel for the immune system, an alternative to carbohydrates for glycogen replenishment, a regulator of acid-base balance, a constituent of new muscle growth and as an intermediate in many reactions within the body. It also serves as a building block for the manufacture of other non essential amino acids and to synthesise neurotransmitters in the brain. Also playing a vital role in wound healing and recovery, glutamine has recently been considered by the medical community as a nutraceutical – a nutrient derived from food with definite medical benefit.

Glutamines versatility comes from the fact that it is a small, relatively simple protein, containing an extra nitrogen atom – this allows it to be easily utilised by many of the body’s protein dependent systems, especially anti catabolic and hypertrophic processes leading to muscle growth. It is this versatility that makes it especially useful for anyone undertaking vigorous, intense exercise and looking to increase lean mass.

Available in two forms, L-Glutamine and Glutamine Peptides, glutamine is relatively inexpensive and easy to use. Dosing depends upon the type of glutamine taken- L-Glutamine can be used in amounts of up to 20g per day, best split into four doses of 5g taken every three to four hours, or in a more conservative dose of just 5g taken either around training or when convenient. Glutamine peptides are theorised to be more easily absorbed and dosing is suggested at a more modest 3-10g per day.

To summarise, glutamine is a non essential amino acid important to many physiological functions and its addition to diet, particularly in states of stress or exercise, is vital for optimum health and functioning.

Nutritional supplements, scam or what?

Mon, 02 Aug 2010 09:38:42 +0000

Nutritional supplements, scam or what?

To be fair, opinions are like bottoms, every one has one! The thing about the area of health called ‘alternative’ is that it isn’t an area trusted or believed by everyone. Holistic or natural remedies are viewed with scepticism and caution and the word quack is often used in association. Many herbal or complementary therapies have been in existence for thousands of years and if they were utter garbage or nonsense there is absolutely no way the methodologies to use them would still be here, they would have been buried thousand of years ago. Perhaps we should try to be a little more open minded and less ‘Western’ in our attitudes especially as the vast majority of the world’s population still use ancient remedies and medicinal preparations. The vast majority of multi-millions of people can’t all be wrong, can they?

The thing with us sophisticated and civilized westerners (said with tongue firmly in cheek!) is that we have wonderfully packaged and scientifically proven pharmaceuticals to use for when we are ill. We go to our doctor or pharmacist and take whatever they recommend. We do not have to think about it or even consider the alternatives. The reason as to why you became was more than likely your own fault but hey, who cares, when I get ill, I’ll pay for the cure. But where are these medical professional recommendations born?

Mainstream medicine is a blinkered and indoctrinated industry dominated by the desires of the huge pharmaceutical companies. It costs time and millions of dollars to get approval for pharmaceuticals and these costs need to be recouped. These guys need their investment money back. Have you ever considered where the majority of investment in medical colleges comes from? Yep, the pharma giants – why do you think that is? Additionally, who recommends products to doctors or pharmacists, yep sales reps from pharma giants. The thing is, the pharmaceutical industry is a gigantic business. One giant, GSK is apparently considerably wealthier than quite a few countries added together!

I recently heard that last year in the US alone approximately 150,000 people died from the prescription drugs given to them by their doctors. Conversely, I have never heard of anyone dying from taking a supplement.

To a certain degree I feel quite sorry for our doctors. They are busy and they have to make important decisions on a variety of symptoms and illnesses daily. It must be stressful having to cope with the work load. Having little time to keep up to date with the latest drugs its no wonder they take on board what the pharma sales reps tell them. In our recent history, as soon as somebody walked in the doctors feeling a little blue, the next thing they knew they were on Prozac for 6 months! This drug had a lot of investment and marketing, so they needed to make a hell of a lot of money out of this one. Nowadays it’s all about cholesterol. In the West, apparently we are nearly all suffering with this problem called elevated ‘bad’ cholesterol levels. Ignoring the fact that the ‘correct’ level keeps changing (it keeps lowering – I wonder why?) suddenly we all need statins. My goodness what did we do without these wonder drugs! The pharma giant has done a great job on this one and the doc has bought the hype! This course of action is to prevent (my goodness I didn’t think they understood the word!) heart problems. But high cholesterol has little to do with heart problems and the actual statistics show the link is ridiculously tenuous. In Japan they typically have much higher ‘bad’ levels and yet, not only do they live longer but they have considerably less heart issues. There are so many other ways to maintain a healthy heart, surely taking a drug is a bit sledge-hammer. It leaves a bit of a bad taste with me.

I am not against mainstream medicine, if you need to take a drug and it works then great. If you need surgery, have it. My gripe is basically with the blinkered attitude which is passed through our society which builds mistrust of anything offered by a non-white coat wearing professional. Taking the course of prevention is surely much better than waiting until you fall ill but alas this is now the way of the rich and lazy West. Optimal health isn’t that difficult to achieve but of course this isn’t the goal of everyone. To make some positive changes only requires a little common sense and a small amount of effort to use nutritional supplements and vitamins, eat a healthier more balanced diet, take a little regular exercise, relax and get some decent sleep.

When anti-aging is mentioned, most people immediately think of anti-wrinkle face creams. This is the power of big business and marketing. When I talk of anti-aging I mean the slowing of age and combating all the aging diseases which most of us will inevitably encounter or suffer from. Anti-aging medicine is a proven area of medicine and science. If you believe in prevention being better than cure and the possibility to protect against the aging disease, then we are talking the same language. But this is not just about popping some pills, this is to do with an all round effort to fight the causes of aging. It is as much about good mental health as it is a healthy body. It is about whatever helps you relax and feel good whether it be meditation, breathing exercises, yoga, massage, sports, having a glass of red or walking the dog. It is about cutting down on the naughty foods and adding some more fresh fruit and vegetables. It is about stopping smoking and cutting down on your alcohol consumption and it’s about taking nutritional supplements and good quality vitamins.

Did you know that the Recommended Daily Allowance for vitamins was created during the First World War to establish the absolute bear minimum vitamin intake humans need to survive! Hardly optimum health!

Now this brings me to Can-C eye drops. Can-C eye drops are not a miracle drug or cure. They are a clinically proven, specially formulated supplement, created to deliver the super –antioxidant n-acetyl-carnosine (NAC) to the part of the eye which needs some help to fight the ravages of age. As we age the balance between oxygen, protein and sugar gets out of sync, causing massive amounts of free radicals. Free radicals cause an enormous amount of damage throughout our bodies, bringing on the aging process, and antioxidants are the slayers of free radicals. Carnosine has proven to be a powerful anti-oxidant that helps most of our organs but has little benefit to the eyes. It was the desire to create a delivery system for carnosine to reach the eyes that started the research 20 years ago that finally brought us the breakthrough that is Can-C, 10 years ago.

Can-C eye drops rid the age related ‘debris’ through its powerful antioxidant action. This leaves the eye clear to begin the process of healing itself. The drops could be used by anyone interested in protecting their eyes against the inevitable onslaught of aging. They have proved to be an excellent supplement for humans and pets wanting to naturally reverse aging conditions like senile cataracts. Also, by providing the healthiest environment for your eyes, Can-C helps with many other ocular conditions from Dry Eye or Presbyopia to Macular Degeneration and Computer Vision Syndrome.

Can-C not only offers an alternative to mainstream remedies like cataract surgery or practically useless drops for dry eye like artificial tears, but they are an excellent investment for the future health of your eyes. Can-c eye drops should be part of your anti-aging regime from your late thirties onwards.

Vitamin and Nutritional Supplements?Winning Tactics For Choosing The Best

Vitamin and Nutritional Supplements?Winning Tactics For Choosing The Best

It never fails to amaze me just how many vitamin and nutritional supplements there are today and how poor in quality more of them are too. Once you know what to look for, it becomes a much simpler task.

There have been many reports in the press about how, in the long term, taking a daily supplement could be bad for you, and this is actually true for many of them as they contain synthetic ingredients which are harmful over time.

To cite one example of a common synthetic ingredient found in most vitamin and nutritional supplements, vitamin E is very popular. The cheap synthetic version has little to offer and can be harmful over time whereas the natural version is a powerful antioxidant and great for the skin.

Every time it comes down to money.

The few exceptional companies put their resources into producing exceptional products while most use it to buy advertising to convince us their bad products are good.

The same goes for the coating. A company that really wants you to gain all the possible benefits will use an expensive enteric coating to enable you to get the maximum impact by releasing the contents in the upper intestine. This is in contrast to cheap veggie caps that dissolve in the stomach, losing most of the goodness.

A veggie cap is only good for fish oils and some vitamins that should be released in the stomach, not for the combination of vitamin and nutritional supplements.

When selecting any type of supplements, it is wise to research carefully, making sure a certificate of analysis (COA) for each ingredient is present and make sure the company in question adheres to strict GMP manufacturing processes.

The key as you can probably guess is to do some research in advance rather than buying any old supplement when you are out shopping and in fact the best place to shop for them these days is online, where it is possible to find the lesser known but high quality products.

In closing, I hope this brief guide will help you choose the very best natural vitamin and nutritional supplements to help you maintain optimum health for now and the future.

Nutritional Benefits of Whey Protein

Sun, 01 Aug 2010 05:58:16 +0000

Nutritional Benefits of Whey Protein

Adequate nutrition for your body before and after strenuous work-outs is important in order for you to reap the maximum benefits from your efforts. An increasingly popular way of achieving this is through the use of natural Whey Protein supplements.

Nowadays many athletes, especially Body Builders, are utilizing natural Whey Protein supplements to replenish protein levels that are burned off through hard-core exercise routines. Amino Acids prevent deterioration in muscle tissue as well as provide endurance and assist in building mass. Proteins help supply these amino acids.

So what exactly is Whey Protein?

Whey Protein is derived from cow’s milk and is also a by-product of making cheese, which in the past was typically thrown out as a waste product. We now know that Whey Protein is rich in amino acids essential for building muscle and overall good health.

Whey Protein is also naturally found in breast milk as well as some types of baby formula. Although protein is also found in other foods such as meats and vegetables, Whey Protein is known to have the highest digestible levels of protein that the body can use.

Whey Protein offers several other health benefits like a healthier immune system, stronger bones, weight loss, and just plain overall better well being. Whey Protein is also sometimes used to help speed the healing of wounds or burns.

Are there risks or side affects?

Since Whey Protein is derived from food it doesn’t have any of the risks associated with man-made supplements. However, you can even have too much of a good thing if you’re not careful. Extreme high use can be more than your liver can handle. Moderation is always best.

For those who are lactose intolerant, there is Whey Protein Isolate which has less than 1% lactose.

Discover What The Best Nutritional Supplements Contain For Sustained And Vibrant Health

Fri, 30 Jul 2010 09:36:22 +0000

Discover What The Best Nutritional Supplements Contain For Sustained And Vibrant Health

With so many products to choose from today, it can be hard to find the best nutritional supplements that only contain natural ingredients designed to considerably boost your health and well-being. Here are some of the top ingredients to look for and the wealth of benefits they bring.

Why take just a multi vitamin when you can get so much more including a mix of natural vitamins, herb extracts, amino acids, antioxidants and minerals to name a few?

A blend of the right synergistic ingredients including the likes of green tea extract, resveratrol, turmeric, olive leaf, milk thistle, ginkgo biloba, vitamins and minerals will help you over a wide range of issues leading to more energy, improved sleep, lower cholesterol and protection from heart disease to name a few.

You will also experience a clearer mind, better memory, clearer skin and less susceptibility to flu and those annoying colds that seem to plague us more today.

Green tea and resveratrol are essential in the best nutritional health supplements and can also help with weight loss and lowering blood pressure. Look for natural 50% trans-resveratrol as this is the type that carries the maximum benefits and around 20mg per day.

Other great ones include zeaxanthin and lutein to help with improved vision and piperine from black pepper to increase the absorption rates of many of the nutrients so a higher dose is not necessary.

All of these combine to help you avoid many of the degenerative diseases later in life while helping you to enjoy improved health in the present.

It is important to ensure any supplement you select has an enteric coating to protect the contents from the stomach acid and to be released in the upper intestine for the maximum benefits. Many do not have this special coating and so most of the benefits are lost, just check the website or label to see.

With the fact that our food today contains only one sixth of the nutritional value it had just sixty years ago, even if you try to eat well you will be lacking in many of these nutrients, which also help to keep the aging process at bay!

If you want to avoid degenerative diseases and maintain optimum health, then simply selecting the best nutritional supplement with these ingredients can help you to get more out of life with renewed vitality.

If you would like to learn more about the nutritional supplements I personally take that contain resveratrol, visit my website below.

Mogo Organics: Nutritional Health Supplements with a Difference

Mogo Organics: Nutritional Health Supplements with a Difference

Nutritional health supplements have received bad press in the past, largely due to the fact that many of their manufacturers have relied more heavily on marketing than on research. Not so with Mogo Organics, a company that manufactures nutritional health supplements.

Other ingredients Mogo Pro include Taurine, which helps promote and maintain vigorous muscle function. Taurine helps send signals from your brain to your muscles telling them to move.

Nutritional Supplements and Your Health

Nutritional Supplements and Your Health

Walk through any supermarket or retail chain store and you will find rows upon rows of health supplements; in fact, go to the mall and you will find entire stores dedicated to them. It is absolutely mind boggling how many there are to choose from, and it leaves a person wondering if they should buy several supplements for optimum health, or go with a once-a-day vitamin to cure all their nutritional ailments.

In theory, a nutritional supplement is supposed to supply nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, fatty acids and amino acids, that are missing from a person’s diet and are essential for someone’s health. Herbal supplements are also included under the umbrella term “supplements.”

Most herbs and botanicals that are found in these supplements are naturally occurring in different parts of the world. Somewhere along the way, someone came up with the idea of bottling and selling them. Some Supplements claim to help you reduce your risk of just about everything, including high cholesterol, high blood pressure, anxiety and fatigue. And there are also supplements that claim to help increase your motivation, concentration, and your metabolism. So, which do you choose?

First, before you buy anything, you should assess exactly what it is that you are trying to accomplish. Choosing supplements that are designed to work to lower your blood pressure are not going to help with your cholesterol problem. Next, talk to your doctor about your health, if for no other reason than to let them know what you are taking. Sometimes naturally occurring substances, no matter how harmless they seem, can have an adverse reaction to your health when mixed with prescribed medication.

So, when searching for supplements specifically to keep your heart healthy, you should look for those that contain ingredients that address the major risk factors that can lead to heart disease. These include: high cholesterol, high blood pressure, obesity, stress and physical inactivity.

Without a doubt, there are a lot to choose from, and you must be careful that you don’t get caught buying a product that will provide no benefit at all. Make sure that the company producing the vitamins has published clinical trials of their studies related to the product.

In order for one of these studies to get published in a scientific journal the scientific community as a whole must agree upon the findings. There are not very many natural health companies with published studies. Most companies hire their own scientists and do biased testing on their products.

However, within the good natural health companies there are a number of great products that have been designed by nutritionists and researchers to naturally lower cholesterol levels, blood pressure levels, reduce stress and increase energy levels throughout the day; as a direct result, these also encourage an increase in physical activity. Some supplements that do just that are Green Tea, folic acid, magnesium, and C and B vitamins.

If stress and anxiety seem to plague your health, don’t worry, there’s a natural supplement for that. For anyone, you know that short-term stress is unavoidable. Sometimes, chronic or long term stress can be caused by your job, financial worries and your personal relationships. This too may be unavoidable.

Without a major life change, it is often impossible to alter these specific situations; luckily, it is possible to change the way you respond to them. Chronic stress can also lead to depression, which often accompanies heart disease.

One of the supplements you can take to help with anxiety is Ginkgo Biloba, combined with ginger. This supplement has been shown to reduce anxiety caused by chronic stress. Individuals in chronic stress situations should also consider taking extra vitamin C because stress quickly zaps the level of vitamin C in your blood stream. A lack of vitamin C can lead to low energy and can mimic the symptoms of iron deficiency, so it may be worth a check with your doctor to rule out anemia.

In addition to all the above, it is also important to note that a recent 2007 study found that regular supplementation with vitamin E, beta carotene, and vitamin A increased mortality by four, seven, and 16 percent respectively. Not only can supplements help you have more energy and feel better, they can help you live longer too! Who can argue with that?

Overall, most agree that supplements are a good way to fill in the health gaps that your not-always-balanced diet leaves behind. In addition, for those times when you are not able to get a good night’s sleep, or you are suffering from a bad week at work, these natural products can help ease your anxiety and make you feel as though you are back on a level playing field. When it comes to your health you just can’t neglect your body and what you are putting into it.

If you add to this the pollution and other toxins you have to put up with, nutritional supplements become even more of a necessity

Weight Loss Diet Why Nutritional Cleansing Gets Fast Safe Natural Weight Loss

Mon, 12 Apr 2010 08:31:45 +0000

Weight loss has become an obsession in a nation where 63% of the people are overweight and a startling 31% are obese. Clearly our modern lifestyle is not healthy. Many people are desperate to make a change and will try any \’magic-bullet\’ weight loss cure that is offered – still the obesity rates climb. What are the reasons behind this trend? The stress of our lifestyles, toxicity in the environment, unhealthy processed food, improper nutrition habits, and lives spent in our cars, small offices and houses with little or no time in fresh air. Our lifestyles seem designed to make us fat.
People desperate for weight loss will try any diet, take any pill, and even resort to surgery to try and get their weight under control, but if they don\’t deal with the underlying issues that lead to obesity in the first place they are bound to regain the weight leading to an ever increasing waistline. There is no \’magic-bullet\’ to take away obesity. In order to counter the effects of our unhealthy lifestyles it is necessary to deal with the underlying issues that are causing the obesity in the first place. We can learn from the lifestyles of ancient cultures where the diet is predominantly fruits, grains and vegetables and where fasting or nutritional cleansing is an accepted practice.

We are surrounded by more chemicals with higher levels of toxicity than ever before. These chemicals can build up in our body and compound the problems of improper nutrition leading to obesity. Nutritional cleansing is a great way to help our bodies deal with toxicity. By eating healthy meals, predominantly of vegetables and lean protein, and by taking regular cleanse days to flush the toxins from the system our bodies will re-set the natural balance and weight loss will automatically follow. Unlike fasting, nutritional cleansing is not simply a process of not eating. When you undertake nutritional cleansing you drink a specially prepared vitamin and mineral packed supplement that will help increase your energy, cleanse the toxins from your body and even help your skin and hair regain the gloss of health.

Simply by reprogramming your life to eat healthier food, drink plenty of water and cleanse the toxins from your body you will see results. Not only will you lose weight, but you will have more energy, feel healthier and best of all, have reduced cravings for those unhealthy foods. The best thing about nutritional cleansing is that you can achieve weight loss without going on a diet!
