Want More Energy?

Many people aske me what I eat for breakfast because I have so much energy throughout my entire day.  In truth, I start every day with an Isagenix protein shake.  I add their amino acids powder and an anti oxidant powder to my shake.  Some fresh fruit and a little fat free yougurt, and I'm set for my morning's tasks.  Sometimes, in between meals, I need a boost to my energy level.  I mix a packet of Isagenix "Want More Energy" in a glass of water and I'm ready for all the action you can give me! 

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  "Want More Energy" contains alfalfa juice concentrated with trace minerals to keep you running at peak performance. This formulation makes the perfect pre and post workout drink for all you athletes out there.   All those nutrients are absorbed immediately by the body, so your walk to and from the gym is the time when your body is receiving all the fuel it needs to prepare for your workout or recuperate from your time at the gym.  Want More Energy contains no caffeine, no artificial sweeteners or colors and contains no ephedrine.  One serving (mixed with 16oz of water) contains 35 calories, 8g carbs and 7g sugars.  It has much fewer calories, carbs and sugars than a Red Bull and none of the bullcrap that Red Bull contains.  If you're interested in having more energy, call or email me and I'll hook you up with some really good superfoods!

Antioxidants and Amino Acids Made Easy

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein chains.  Proteins are crucial for all living beings.  Antioxidants are those 'soldiers' that fight against the evil free radials.  When high levels of free radicals accumulate in the body, disease occurs (blood vessel damage, high blood pressure, vascular disease and cancers).  An Israeli study found that a supplement containing antioxidants improved blood vessel health in 70 people who were suffering from hypertension. 

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  Isagenix makes a product called Ionic Supreme.  A small scoop of this powder everyday gives you all the anitoxidants and amino acids you need to fight disease.  It's tasty and all you have to do is mix it up in a glass of water and drink it...easy breezy!

Canada Lists Bisphenol A As Toxic

A Repost for you today:
Canada Lists Bisphenol A As Toxic,by Health & Wellness on Friday, October 15, 2010 at 4:50pm.BPA, now listed as toxic by Health Canada, is found widely in plastic bottles and in the linings of aluminum cans.
This week, Health Canada officially declared bisphenol A (BPA) to be a toxic substance under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act. This decision will lead to government regulation and management to limit the use of this industrial chemical in plastic items to better control risks to health and the environment.
The announcement sets the stage for further action in Canada to minimize the prevalence of harmful industrial toxins in the future.
BPA is used in some hard, clear polycarbonate plastic items such as water bottles. It’s also a component in the production of epoxy resins, which are used in linings of aluminum cans.
In 2008, the government had banned its use in polycarbonate plastic baby bottles and baby food packaging.
To justify the labeling, the Canadian government cites scientific evidence that BPA can potentially act as an endocrine disruptor, mimicking hormones in the body, in low amounts.
Because the chemical has the potential of harming the body’s natural balance of hormones, it may present a risk to a child’s normal development. The chemical may also increase risk of a variety of diseases including type-2 diabetes, breast cancer, and prostate cancer.
compound has also recently been named among possible obesogenic pollutants, or “obesogens,” defined as chemicals that may pose risk of disrupting hormonal signaling in fat tissue.
Earlier this year, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced that it would work with the industry to limit BPA in U.S. products and launch an investigation into use of BPA at low doses.
In the U.S. population, there is also widespread exposure to BPA. A previous report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that the majority of people in the U.S. had BPA present in their urine.
The Environmental Working Group has estimated that “6 billion pounds of BPA are produced globally annually.” The group has consistently reported news involving BPA over the recent years and has a timeline of the BPA controversy available on their Web site.

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  As you know, I use and advocate Isagenix products because of its high quality. It is a part of Isagenix policy to avoid toxic chemicals such as BPA in any of its packaging. These include all plastic canisters containing Isagenix products including shakes, soups, and capsules. It also includes shakers and blenders.  If you take supplements, protein powders, vitamins or use everyday beauty products and would like to know more about Isagenix, just email me and I'll tell you all about it!

What Is DeTox Anyway?

The term 'detox' has become quite the buzzword recently.  I'm ageing myself when I say that detox used to mean that you had a really fun weekend and come Monday morning, it was back to seltzer, salads and soups.  Today, 'detox' is used to describe everything from colonics to rehab.
I'm going to give you my 'take on detox'.  Real simple, real easy.  It all comes down to cellular nutrition, respiration and regeneration.  Good cells produce good organs and glands.  Everything you eat, drink and smoke affects the cells.  If the cells get too much booze, nicotine, sugar and other 'stuff', their homeostasis becomes sluggish and 'gunk' builds up.  That's why you get a stomach ache, have insomnia, have a smoker's cough, gain weight and just can't seem to do much at the gym.
The idea of 'good detox' is to accelerate the removal of impurities on the cellular level.  This leads to weight loss, better sleep, more energy and total wellness.

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  You don't have to purge, suffer colonics, starve yourself or drive your mind to madness figuring out the Weight Watcher's Points.  You only need a good Wellness Program, designed just for you and your lifestyle that will help you gently make some healthy changes for longterm results.  Take the free questionaire today and find out what you can do to detox the easy way!
