MGM Supplement: Booste Your metabolism

Now I know there are a bunch of people who would like to lose some weight and have a lean, tone, and healthy body. A great way to do this is to boost your metabolism. When someone boosts their metabolism they are basically boosting their base metabolic rate (BMR). BMR is the amount of energy (calories) that your body burns during it normal functions such as digestion, breathing, or even just keeping your body temperature normal.

When we go on diets that cut certain foods out of our daily eating habits our body views this as if we are starving. Since we are starving, our body tries to conserve energy. Dieters often complain of lack of energy, fatigue, exhaustion, headaches and difficulty concentrating, depression, irritability, etc. This is a direct result of the body not getting enough fuel (food/calories) to function optimally.

So what what does this mean?
DO NOT SKIP MEALS!! This is the number one mistake people make. By doing this the body is instinctively 'saving' calories. By drastically reducing your caloric intake you are working against the natural rhythm of your body. This is also the reason you will see that you gain all + more of the lost weight as soon as you get off your diet. The body starts 'storing' calories for a future 'self-induced famine'. This is also known as the 'yo-yo syndrome'... losing and gaining the same weight over and over again.

So what is the best way to lose weight??

• Eat six to eight small meals a day. Do not eat until you are full, just eat until you are satisfied.
• Eat well-balanced meals. There is no such thing as 'bad' food... every food group is used by your body for necessary functions.
• Do some type of aerobic exercise (walking, jogging, swimming, stationary cycling, aerobics, etc.) on a DAILY basis for 30 to 60 minutes, preferably in the morning. Forget this twice-a-week stuff. Your body was designed to be active on a daily basis! When you are active your metabolism will soar!
• Do an additional 15 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise in the evening, five days per week.
• Incorporate "intervals" into most of your aerobic sessions. Intervals are a powerful tool to help boost your metabolism. Intervals means adding a brief stint of 1 minute aerobic activity every 10 minutes into your regular exercise routine.
• Tone your muscles with weight training six days per week. Toned muscles supercharge your metabolism! This should be done just after an aerobic exercise session. You should exercise each body part three times per week.
• Always eat breakfast! Skipping breakfast sends the message to your body that you are "starving" because you haven't had food in 18+ hours (dinner the night before to lunch the following day). As a protective mechanism, your metabolism slows down.

If you don't have the time to find 6-8 small healthy meals to eat each day I want to recommend MGM Supplment Shake Mix. The meal shakes make for a perfect meals that have all the proper nutrition.

MGM Supplement: Hazards of Chlorine and Bleach

Most people use a wide variety of cleaning products, many of which contain toxic chemicals. Chlorine bleach is potentially carcinogenic and can damage the respiratory system. Among its by-products are chlorinated hydrocarbons, chloroform and trihalo-methanes, all of which act like weak estrogens and cause breast cells to divide more rapidly. These by-products have been shown to cause breast tumors in animals.

MGM supplement has a product called Basic Germicide that is more safe and effective than Chlorine Bleach. Check it out at http://www.shaklee.net/mcasey/product/00525

The ingredients in most household cleaners, including corrosives, ammonia, bleach, phosphates, and petroleum, pose a variety of threats to your health.

Note: MGM Supplement cleaners are completely toxic free and totally safe for you and your family.

I recommend that you can go to WW for the Positive Support for a while... I did go for a while.... Then I started losing SO MUCH with MGM.

I ONLY FOLLOWED THE MGM Weight Loss PROGRAM.

2 shakes & a balanced meal at night freshly made. 2 snacks during the day.... and the WW staff was asking me how I was doing it... what WW plan was I on.... I realized I couldn't share that I was on something else (MGM's Weight Loss) otherwise I would undermine their process with WW! SO I HAD TO STOP GOING! Once I started losing so quickly with MGM Weight Loss... I got very excited which produced the conviction determination I needed.

I changed my support from WW to the cinchclub.com; listened in on MGM Weight Loss conference calls.

MGM Supplement: No More Allergy Shots for Me!

Testimony....

I'm allergic to pollen, dust, grass, weeds, trees, feathers, fur, certain scents, dogs, cats, and certain foods (citrus, fish, cashews or anything processed in a plant with tree nuts). I also have asthma. I suffered itchy rashes on my hands so bad I could hardly bend my fiingers.

For years I would break out all over my body every time the wind blew. I was always getting nosebleeds. I was constantly sick with bronchitis, and pretty much had no voice for 4-6 months of the year. I tried over-the-counter, and every prescription med, inhaler, or nose spray.

Zyrtec worked best but made me absolutely crazy and I had to quit taking it. I was getting allergy shots for a while and they helped a lot, but the series were sporatic and a couple times I had analphylactic reactions to the shots. That is really scary! The last time MediCal stopped my shots was when MGM Immune Builder first came out. I was freaking about the shots because if I didn't get them every week ... I'd end up with bronchitis and lose my voice, etc.

I was a non-committed MGM Supplement user, but decided to give the MGM Immune Builder a try. What a difference! I doubled up on it the first few days, then took two a day regularly for a long time. I did go without it for about a week at one point, and that is where I really noticed the difference because the symptoms came back!

Other than that, I've been basically symptom free since I started taking the MGM Immune Builder, and I've gotten friends who were distributers for other companies taking it for their allergies and asthma because they saw the differnce in me and how much better I was since I started taking the MGM Immune Builder.

I have seven children, one with severe allergies who also takes MGM Immune Builder. My oldest daughter who is in college in Santa Cruz, takes it every day and she was the only one in school that didn't get sick the whole year, except once, and that time she recovered real fast when she doubled up on the MGM Immune Builder.

The other kids take it when others around them are getting sick at school and work. It feels good to be able to go outside on a beautiful day and not be afraid of breaking out in a rash. I even go outside when it is windy and still have my voice! Recently I went on a five-mile hike when everything was blooming and didn't even sneeze or get wheezy!

MGM Immune Builder is amazing stuff ... I can't help but be excited about it!

MGM Supplement: Something Good to Know

Since MGM Supplements newest Cinch Energy Tea flavor is Pomegranate...I found this in an article today from prevention.com (the link to entire article of foods to eat for your health is below). Not only do you get an energy boost from this tea, and the Matcha green, white & red tea is very health beneficial, but now you see the benefits of the pomegranate added! MUCH BETTER THAN A STARBUCKS DRINK!

1. POMEGRANATE: If you're going to have a martini, at least make it a pomegranate one. This fall fruit has higher antioxidant activity than red wine and green tea, which may be why a number of studies show it may prevent skin cancer and kill breast and prostate cancer cells. It also helps:

2. Fight Alzheimer's disease: Researchers at Loma Linda University found that mice who drank pomegranate juice experienced 50 percent less brain degeneration than animals that consumed only sugar water. The pomegranate drinkers also did better in mazes and tests as they aged.

3. Guard your arteries: A group of diabetics who drank about 2 ounces of pomegranate juice a day for 3 months kept their bodies from absorbing bad cholesterol into their immune system cells (a major contributing factor to hardened arteries), discovered by Israeli researchers.

MGM Supplement: Women and heart attacks

Testimony sent by Brenda

I've meant to send this to my women friends to warn them that it's true that women rarely have the same dramatic symptoms that men have when experiencing a heart attack...you know, the sudden stabbing pain in the chest, the cold sweat, grabbing the chest & dropping to the floor that we see in the movies. I had a completely unexpected heart attack at about 10:30 pm with NO prior exertion, NO prior emotional trauma that one would suspect might've brought it on.

I was sitting all snugly & warm on a cold evening, with my purring cat in my lap, reading an interesting story my friend had sent me, and actually thinking,"A-A-h, this is the life, all cozy and warm in my soft, cushy Lazy Boy with my feet propped up." A moment later, I felt that awful sensation of indigestion, when you've been in a hurry and grabbed a bite of sandwich and washed it down with a dash of water, and that hurried bite seems to feel like you've swallowed a golf ball going down the esophagus in slow motion and it is most uncomfortable. You realize you shouldn't have gulped it down so fast and needed to chew it more thoroughly and this time drink a glass of water to hasten its progress down to the stomach. This was my initial sensation---the only trouble was that I hadn't taken a bite of anything since about 5:00 p.m. After that had seemed to subside, the next sensation was like little squeezing motions that seemed to be racing up my SPINE (hind-sight, it was probably my aorta spasming), gaining speed as they continued racing up and under my sternum (breast bone, where one presses rhythmically when adminstering CPR). This fascinating process continued on into my throat and branched out into both jaws. AHA!! NOW I stopped puzzling about what was happening--we all have read and/or heard about pain in the jaws being one of the signals of an MI happening, haven't we?

I said aloud to myself and the cat, "Dear God, I think I'm having a heart attack !" I lowered the foot rest, dumping the cat from my lap, started to take a step and fell on the floor instead. I thought to myself "If this is a heart attack, I shouldn't be walking into the next room where the phone is or anywhere else.......but, on the other hand, if I don't, nobody will know that I need help, and if I wait any longer I may not be able to get up in moment." I pulled myself up with the arms of the chair, walked slowly into the next room and dialed the Paramedics... I told her I thought I was having a heart attack due to the pressure building under the sternum and radiating into my jaws. I didn't feel hysterical or afraid, just stating the facts. She said she was sending the Paramedics over immediately, asked if the front door was near to me, and if so, to unbolt the door and then lie down on the floor where they could see me when they came in. I then laid down on the floor as instructed and lost consciousness, as I don't remember the medics coming in, their examination, lifting me onto a guerny or getting me into their ambulance, or hearing the call they made to St. Jude ER on the way, but I did briefly awaken when we arrived and saw that the Cardiologist was already there in his surgical blues and cap, helping the medics pull my stretcher out of the ambulance. He was bending over me asking questions (probably something like "Have you taken any medications?") but I couldn't make my mind interpret what he was saying, or form an answer, and nodded off again, not waking up until the Cardiologist and partner had already threaded the teeny angiogram balloon up my femoral artery into the aorta and into my heart where they installed 2 side by side stents to hold open my right coronary artery.

I know it sounds like all my thinking and actions at home must have taken at least 20-30 minutes before calling the Paramedics, but actually it took perhaps 4-5 minutes before the call, and both the fire station and St. Jude are only minutes away from my home, and my Cardiologist was already to go to the OR in his scrubs and get going on restarting my heart (which had stopped somewhere between my arrival and the procedure) and installing the stents.

Why have I written all of this to you with so much detail? Because I want all of you who are so important in my life to know what I learned first hand.

1. Be aware that something very different is happening in your body ..not the usual men's symptoms, but inexplicable things happening (until my sternum and jaws got into the act ). It is said that many more women than men die of their first (and last)MI because they didn't know they were having one, and commonly mistake it as indigestion, take some Maalox or other anti- heartburn" preparation, and go to bed, hoping they'll feel better in the morning when they wake up....which doesn't happen. My female friends, your symptoms might not be exactly like mine, so I advise you to call the Paramedics if ANYTHING is unpleasantly happening that you've not felt before. It is better to have a "false alarm" visitation than to risk your life guessing what it might be!

2. Note that I said "Call the Paramedics". Ladies, TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE! Do NOT try to drive yourself to the ER--you're a hazard to others on the road, and so is your panicked husband who will be speeding and looking anxiously at what's happening with you instead of the road.

Do NOT call your doctor--he doesn't know where you live and if it's at night you won't reach him anyway, and if it's daytime, his assistants (or answering service) will tell you to call the Paramedics. He doesn't carry the equipment in his car that you need to be saved! The Paramedics do, principally OXYGEN that you need ASAP. Your Dr. will be notified later.

3. Don't assume it couldn't be a heart attack because you have a normal cholesterol count. Research has discovered that a cholesterol elevated reading is rarely the cause of an MI (unless it's unbelievably high, and/or accompanied by high blood pressure.) MI's are usually caused by long-term stress and inflammation in the body, which dumps all sorts of deadly hormones into your system to sludge things up in there.

Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive...

MGM Supplement: Exercising tip

The Surgeon General recommends that adults over the age of 18 get at least 30 minutes of moderate activity most days of the week. I realize that most people that read this blog don't necessarily exercise on a regular routine if at all.

There really is no replacement for exercise. You can go on all the diets in the world, but without regular exercise your results will always be less than satisfactory. Even if you do lose weight on the diets that you might embark on, the loss of that weight doesn't necessarily make you healthier.

So I guess you really have to think about it this way. Even if you loss weight with a diet, that is not necessarily going to make you look tone and feel proud to be in your own skin. Not to mention all the stress relief benefits that you get from exercise. I bet that most of you reading this didn't know that as a whole, the more that you exercise the more likely you are to be successful in what ever it is that you do.

If you do exercise I want to give you a little tip.

• When you start your exercising for the day, start out with a aerobic work out to get your heart rate up. For example: if you are wanting to tone up your legs, start out riding a bike or running for like 10 to 15 minutes. As soon as you get done either go and run some short sprints until you are exhausted. Or go and lift weights with your legs. The amount of blood that has accumulated in the circulation of the legs will stay there throughout your whole work out, as long as you keep your heart rate up. The ultimate effect will be a increase in your cardiac output. This basically means a better looking healthier you.
• It is also more beneficial while exercising to change up your work-out routine. The body has extreme abilities to adapt. So if you don't change it up you won't see the results that you could possibly see by changing up your routine.

Good nutrition is also a big dog of the healthy body. Vitamins and supplements are a great way to get the nutrition that food from a normal diet doesn't give our bodys.

MGM Supplement: Need an Energy Booste

So, there is physical exhaustion which we all have known. There is also mental exhaustion, or maybe more commonly felt as stress, including sadness, boredom, worry, anger and frustration. These can all take a heavy toll on our health. Life happens and so difficult times will happen, but for many there are too many stressful times.

There are lots of helpful tips to help in the heat of a stressful moment, and there are some natural solutions that will give good results for much longer than the moment. Stress is quite possibly one of those health issues that we can turn to for more natural solutions. This would be beneficial in terms of less unwanted side effects to at least start with the natural, and especially if this is not already a long time, serious health challenge.

So let's look at some quick solutions to try. Splashing water on your face or even taking a shower when you are really tired and almost to the point of burn-out can really perk up your energy levels. Dress up when you might be temped to throw on some old and comfy clothes and sometimes the image you see in the mirror will boost your mood for the day.

It is helpful for many people to talk with someone about fears or anxieties or whatever stress they are dealing with at the time. Getting the feelings out can help them not to use up your energy when bottled inside of you. How about some music to lift the spirits. Research shows that music effectively distracts people from feeling fatigue.

If you happen to have a grudge or bad feelings toward someone, let it go. Your mind and your body react to these feelings as they would to stress, and can even lower your immune system over time. Breath from the belly. I read a long time ago that the majority of people take shallow breaths, from the chest. Longer, deeper breaths from the belly will bring more air to the lungs and ultimately more oxygen to the body and brain. You may have to remind yourself of this one more often since it may not come to you when you are under stress unless you make yourself more aware.

Doing something good for someone is another mood elevator. It truly feels rewarding to make a difference to someone, and if you look around there is almost always someone you can help.
There are some natural supplements that have worked over and over for people to help with fatigue and stress, and can be combined with any or all of the ideas above. There is the Happy Vitamin that also has so many other health benefits, there is a wonderful Energy Supplement, and a very effective Stress Relief product.

Info on Hashimoto Thyroidosis

Hashimoto's Thyroidosis is an inflammation (itis) of the Thyroid gland caused by a virus. It is my theory (others agree) that there is only one disease that is caused by malfunctioning cells.

Malfunctioning cells usually show up first where there may be genetic weaknesses within the body. There are two causes of disease: 1) malnutrition-- and 2) exposure to toxins. Hashimoto's attacks the thyroid gland (and other parts of the body as well)--the damage done to the function of the gland is temporary--unless the gland does not get the super nutrition the body needs to suppress the virus.

Doctors tend to quickly respond to blood tests that are abnormal by putting someone on synthroidor one of the other brands of thyroid medication. The problem with that is that the gland cannot recover on its own--if the Pituitary gland does not need to make Thyroid stimulating hormone anymore because the bloodstream has plenty of Thyroid Hormone T4, it stops making it almost completely. T4 is what is in Synthroid--the the body must break down T4 into T3 (triiodothyronine), theactive thyroid hormone.

Viruses do their damage and may simply lie dormant in the body until the immune system weakens again--and come back even some where else in the body to attack. MGM products, including bifda, Premium Garlic, interferon, B, C, Zinc,Vit* Le* and Protein and others, can help the immune system work optimally so that they body has plenty of food to feed the cells of the thyroid gland, and so that the immune system can always suppress a further attack on the body(possibly in the form of fibromyalgia) later. If there is a chance that the gland can become normal again, why not let it--give it a month or two with the supplements and see if the gland can recover.

Ask the doctor for his/her help in trying another tactic. Some times drugs are not the answer--but they sure are easy to prescribe.

MGM Supplement: Preventive Health Measures

Lately I've found my self very inspired by quotes, especially lately. Here is a quote from Dr. Shaklee that may put things into perspective:

"I never belittle the medical profession, but we are two separate fields of endeavor. They are trained to treat disease. I'm interested in building health." - Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee

People today don't go into the doctor just for a regular check-up. They go to the doctor because they are experienceing some sort of symptom that is bothering them. In fact studies have been done that show that a large majority of the population don't go to visit the doctor because they experience "white coat anxiety."

Just think about how the quality of our life could be improved if we just took some preventive measures to improve our health through nutrition and exercise.

MGM Supplement: Sometimes We Fail In Order to Succeed

I received the following short quote from a highly successful person in a field other than MGM Supplement Distribution. After reading it a couple times the thought that kept coming to my mind was the following.

• I wonder why more people don't believe that in order to succeed in anything in life there are certain things that must happen. Learn what those things are and then do them over and over and over again regardless of results. Time and repetition will take care of success process.

Here is the quote that got me to thinking.

"I've missed more than nine thousand shots in my career. I've lost almost three hundred games. Twenty-six times I've been trusted to take the game winning shot, and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life, and that is why I succeed." Michael Jordan

Apparently if you apply the cream to the wart a few times a day for several weeks the wart will eventually dry up and fall off. Now I haven't experienced this myself but I know that this cream is really good for your skin because of it's natural healing properties.

MGM Supplement: Some Facts about Heart Attacks!

Cardiovascular Disease

• Cardiovascular disease is the No. 1 killer of adults in the United States, responsible for about 960,000 deaths annually. Cardiovascular diseases claim more lives than the next seven leading causes of death combined, including cancer, accidents, influenza and pneumonia, and diabetes.
• One in five Americans has some form of cardiovascular disease.
• The cost of cardiovascular diseases in 2002 is estimated to be $329.2 billion in direct costs, such as hospital visits, and indirect costs, such as lost productivity.
  

Sudden Cardiac Arrest

• Sudden cardiac arrest (caused by ventricular fibrillation) suffered in settings outside the hospital is responsible for about 250,000 adult deaths annually in the United States. Each day more than 680 Americans die from sudden cardiac arrest.
• Sudden cardiac arrest is most often caused by an abnormal heart rhythm called ventricular fibrillation (VF). VF usually results from cardiovascular disease but may also result from electrocution or near-drowning.
• When sudden cardiac arrest occurs, the victim collapses, becomes unresponsive to gentle shaking, stops normal breathing and has no signs of circulation such as normal breathing, coughing or movement.
• About 95 percent of sudden cardiac arrest victims die before reaching the hospital.

MGM Supplement:Swim Suit Season Is Just Around the Corner. Are you Ready?

So we are starting to get close to spring time and that means that bathing suit season is just around the corner. Everyone likes to look good when they are out sunning in their bathing suits. Here are a few tips for losing that "winter coat" that you may have acquired over the winter.

Start drinking water all the time. Stop drinking everything else, especially anything that has sugar in it. Water is very important when dieting. My suggestion is that instead of eating your regular portions cut them in half and drink at least one more glass of water with your meal. Not only will this be good for keeping you hydrated but this will help you get your stomach full.

Make smart choices when you eat. Eating healthy is a huge issue. My motto is if your eating something that won't spoil then it isn't good for you. When you eat things that have preservatives in them it takes the food much longer to travel through the digestive tract. The longer that this food sits in your digestive tract the more sugars your body absorbs, thus the fatter you will get. If you think it is going to be very challenging for you to eat right I suggest MGM Supplements weight loss package (MGM Supplement is a Shaklee Distributor)

Start performing some sort of exercise. I know, I know, it is just to hard to find the time to exercise. Here are some tips, talk a family member into going on a walk with you. It has been proven that if you have a partner and routine that you follow, then you will actually perform activities more often. It is extremely important that we all try and fit physical activity into our lives. Our world today is becoming very technology based and we are becoming very dependent on that technology. If we continue on this trend it is going to lead us and our children to serious health problems down the line.

MGM Supplement: Do You Filter or Buy Water?

Have you ever stopped to think about the one single thing that we need most on this planet. Well take a minute now and just try and put this into perspective.

Pollution has been a very touchy subject for many years, but now it is getting a lot more attention because of the recent correlations between pollution and global warming. Global warming has many averse effects not only on our planet but also on us.

I read an article the other day that was making a point that there really are not safe pure streams that you can just drink out of anymore. Much of this can be blamed on global warming. With all the excess carbon in the atmosphere, when it rains now it isn't necessarily safe to drink because it is probably acid rain. I know what your thinking "so what, I don't drink water out of a stream."

Well I do understand that most folks now-a-days either drink city water or bottled water. I have my own personal opinion about both of these sources. First off most city water isn't fit for a pregnant woman to drink because of the fear of birth defects. Well I'm no expert, but if the water isn't good for a pregnant woman and her baby then what are the long term effects that the water is going to have on us. Most people just don't realize what that they might be ingesting. With all the pesticides and cleaners that we use in today's world they are bound to get into our drinking water if they are not already in there.

Bottled water has both negatives and positives. Did you know that water bottled within state lines is not regulated by the same high standards that brands such as Aqufina and Dansi (national brands). So pretty much if your buying a brand of bottled water that is the best deal for the money, your probably being poisoned slowly.

A great way to purify your water is through reverse osmosis. Simple to Install, Even Simpler to Use. Because of its effectiveness in reducing the widest range of contaminants, large municipal water systems treat their most challenging water problems with reverse osmosis technology. The only problem with the large municipal systems are that the water has to travel so far to get to your home that it can be contaminated as it is traveling through the water lines.

Now you can have that same technology in your own home at the turn of your tap.

MGM Supplement: Are You Prehypertensive?

Hypertension is the third leading cause of death in the world, with 1 billion individuals worldwide affected and approximately 50 million individual affected in the in the United States. High BP increases the risk of MI, heart failure, stroke, and kidney disease. Kitteke et al. Identified high BP as a symptom of the "lifestyle syndrome," a cluster of conditions and diseases that result from consuming too many calories and too muck saturated fat, sodium, and alcohol: not balancing intake with physical activity; and using tobacco. Current knowledge about the prevention and treatment of hypertension with lifestyle changes and other effective early interventions has not been adequately translated to the public and to high-risk individuals. For example, Greenlund etal. Found that more than one third of persons with established stroke did not receive advice from a health care professional on dietary or exercise changes.

The seventh report of the joint National Committee on prevention, detection, evaluation, and treatment of high blood pressure established the optimal BP as a systolic BP of 115mm Hg and a diastolic of 75mm Hg with the need to begin treatment when the patient has a systolic of 120 to 139mm Hg or a diastolic BP of 80 to 90mm Hg. The prehypertensive state initially requires health-promoting lifestyle modifications, not medications, to preven CVD.

For children, especially those with a higher risk of hypertension because of obesity, prevention is an ideal intervention approach. In the Bogalusa Heart Study, hypertension and obesity in parents and relatives increased prevalence of increased BP in elementary school children found that high systolic BP was 4.5 times more likely and high diastolic pressure 2.4 times more likely among obese children. Figeroa-Colon et al. found 20% to 30% of obese children ages 5 to 11 years from a high-risk population had hypertension. The response to dietary sodium may vary with the degree of adiposity in children and adolescents. Obese adolescents who changed from a high to a low-salt diet had a significantly larger decrease in BP compared with an insignificant change among non-obese adolescents.

Recommendations for dietary minerals that positively influence hypertension include limiting the daily sodium intake to less than 2400 mg (6 grams salt) and increasing the food sources of calcium, magnesium, and potassium. The preponderance of the evidence for a benefit from increasing minerals is for potassium. Healthy food choices to provide the preferred mineral balance include and intake of five or more servings fruits and vegetables, consumption of six or more servings of grains, and daily low fat dairy product intake of two to four servings. The effect of dietary modifications varies among individuals because of genetic factors, age, medications varies among individuals because of genetic factors, age, medications, and other host factor. Two recent systematic reviews of the effects of reductions in dietary sodium or salt found minimal effects for normal and hypertensive patients, particularly whites, but greater effects were seen for Asians and blacks and for maintenance to lower BP after anti hypertensives were discontinued.

In summary the best way to deal with prehypertension and hypertension is regular exercise and a proper diet. The recommended amount of exercise for adult is at least 30 minutes of exercise during most days of the week. Keep in mind that just exercising 30 minutes a day is the minimum amount so don't expect to see huge changed in weight or body fat when only performing the minimum amount of exercise.

As for the nutrition part: With our busy lifestyles now-a-day it is impossible to get the proper nutrition our bodies need without a daily multivitamin.

MGM Supplement: Is Stress Making Gain Weight?

Stress Changes Your Body
Stress isn't just something you feel in your head. It's something that trickles all throughout your body. Under stress, your body produces two hormones: adrenaline and cortisol. Adrenaline is like lighter fluid, and cortisol is like charcoal. The former quickly burns off the immediately available sugar in your blood, so you can fight or flee whatever is stressing you. Cortisol continues to fuel the fire, pumping more sugar into your blood so you have energy to burn. The problem is that excess sugar coursing through your blood is meant to help you flee the saber-toothed tiger or battle the charging wild boar. It's made to be burned off quickly as you either escape or attack. When the stress comes in a more modern form (like a pressing deadline or a stack of unpaid bills) you can't literally fight back or flee. And without that burst of physical activity, you don't have the chance to burn off that extra blood sugar. Instead, it gets stored in your belly as fat.

Stress Keeps You — And Your Weight — Up
A University of Chicago study showed that men who slept only 4 hours a night had cortisol levels 37 percent higher than men who got a full 8 hours. Men who stayed awake the whole night had levels 45 percent higher than the well-rested guys. And remember, increased cortisol equals more fat stored in your belly. Another study tracked the work habits and weights of nearly 1,800 men over a 12-month period and found that those who regularly logged late hours were 36 percent more likely to tip the scales at above-normal weights than the 9-to-5ers.

That's another reason why letting go of stress is an important step toward letting go of pounds. Another University of Chicago study showed that men who were relaxed enough to get deep, quality sleep secreted almost 65 percent more human growth hormone (HGH) than men who didn't fall into deep sleep. Why is HGH important? It helps prevent the loss of muscle mass that can be caused by cortisol. And muscle mass helps you burn calories and maintain a constantly burning metabolism.

So now that you know what stress can do to our bodies, lets see how to limit the stress in our lives. I use a Natural Stress Release Supplement. Stress Relief Complex utilizes a unique combination of natural ingredients to help you relax without causing drowsiness. In as little as 30 minutes, Stress Relief Complex will provide quick relief from everyday tension, while promoting alertness.

MGM Supplement: Do Feel Run Down?

Do you ever reach a point in your day where you just feel so tired it makes it hard to get anything done. Well there are many supplements that can be taken to cope with this but I want to introduce you to one in particular. MGM Ginseng has Natural Herbal ingredients & antioxidant phytonutrients shown to support and maintain "energy" and resist "fatigue"

Being a college student and a active Shaklee independent distributor I sometimes find myself very tired and just mentally drained. I would sometimes find myself being that person with a coffee cup attached to my hand. Don't get me wrong I love coffee, the only thing is that all that caffeine was making me somewhat "jittery". Not to mention it was severely dehydrating me, and that can actually impede my ability to soak up and learn new information.

Well I started taking our Ginseng and I can whole heatedly say that I feel better. Not only that but I look better. I have more color in my face and I have lost those circles that kept appearing under my eyes. There are a lot of products out there that will keep you awake but not many of them are natural. I like to keep things as pure as possible with as little effort as possible. That is why Ginseng worked for me!!

MGM Supplement: Is Asthma a Problem For Your Children

Many things can cause asthma symptoms to start; these are called triggers. Every child's asthma triggers are different. Sometimes it can be difficult to figure out exactly what your child's asthma triggers are. Work with your child's doctor or nurse to identify your child's specific triggers. It is important to try to control your child's exposure to the triggers that make his or her asthma worse.

Irritants and allergies are the two main types of asthma triggers:

Irritants
Irritants are substances that irritate the nose, throat, or airways. Common irritants include:

Cigarette smoke
Strong smells
Colds or other respiratory illnesses
Chemicals (Green Clean)
Air pollutants
Weather conditions

Allergies
Many children with asthma also have allergies, which can make asthma worse. With allergies, a child's immune system becomes sensitive to allergens, which can include:

pollen (Air Purifier)
pet dander (Air Purifier)
dust mites (Air Purifier)
mold and mildew (Green Clean)
cockroaches

These allergens can increase inflammation (swelling) in the airways and trigger asthma. With continued inflammation, the airways become even more sensitive to triggers.

Some sports such as running long distances and playing basketball may be harder for your child to do, but there are many activities which are great for children with asthma such as swimming, golf and karate.

Always make sure your child has a warm-up and cool-down period before and after exercising, and alert coaches or instructors that your child has asthma. Have your child use her reliever medication 15 to 20 minutes before starting exercise, or as directed by her physician. If your child needs her quick reliever more than twice weekly, talk to your child's health care provider about a daily controller medicine.

MGM Supplement: How to Lower Blood Pressure through Nutrition

Here is a nutrition Plan for Lowering your Blood Pressure Readings

I once heard a Dr. say that just about everyone can get their Blood Pressure to normal in 3 to 5 days.

Use a cup of Soy Protein daily (of course you will mix it with water, that's best) and eat just protein foods for the 3 to 5 days.

Some vegetables are alright, but keep the carbohydrates to a minimum.

Keep track of your blood pressure and when it reaches normal, you can start slowly adding carbs, keeping track of how many carbs you're eating and your blood pressure.
When you see BP increasing, cut back on the carbs - that's your level of tolerance.

Hope it works for you.

MGM Supplement: Synthetic Vitamins Just are Not Worth It

Recent headlines that antioxidants beta-carotene & vitamin E cause mortality.

(MGM Supplement is a Shaklee Distributor)

My husband Dan (MD) told me the same things the recently issued Shaklee Health Sciences Bulletin says, last evening, after he read the article about antioxidants in JAMA. He said the study is poorly designed, they used synthetic vitamin E (MGM's E is natural mixed tocopherols & their Beta Carotene is natural mixed carotenoids), and they compared data from widely divergent studies that did not match up in terms of populations, protocols, or anything else. They didn't do any new research - they just did a meta-anaylsis of old research. We're taking our E!

When the "Shaklee Study" is published, everyone who reads it will know that hundreds of thousands of MGM customers have way BETTER health than those taking other brands, or none at all. As you probably know, Dr. Shaklee was very big on "not messing with Mother Nature" - he created concentrated food supplements using only natural sources - not extractions, synthetics, crystallization, etc. - and Shaklee processes without heat or chemicals, which destroy nutrients & enzymes found in natural food sources.

As Dr. Shaklee said, "We don't make vitamins - only Mother Nature can do that. We make concentrated food supplements that preserve the nutrient content and use a process that does not add heat, or chemicals, or crystallization - or other tortures - and the process we use is the ONLY secret in the Shaklee organization."

Have a great evening - and not to worry about taking your "E"!
