Hum Saath Saath Hain

2012-02-28T20:30:00.001-08:00

Hum Saath Saath Hain - 1999Starring Salman Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Mohnish Behl, Tabu, Sonali Bendre, Karishma Kapoor, Alok Nath, Rima Lagoo & Neelam, is essentially about the love and affection shared between brothers and unity within a family. Ramkishen (Alok Nath) and his wife Mamta (Reema Lagoo) live with their three sons, Vivek (Mohnish Behl), Prem (Salman Khan), and Vinod (Saif Ali Khan). Prem and Vinod have sweethearts in Preeti and Sapna (Sonali Bendre and Karisma Kapoor), but the eldest son Vivek has always been shy and introverted due to a birth handicap. The family meets with Adarsh and his daughter Sangeeta (Rajeev Verma and Tabu), and decide to get Sangeeta and Vivek get married. Though Vivek protests in the beginning Sangeeta's love and devotion wins him over and they get married. After their wedding Mamta becomes insecure, assuming that Vivek (her step-son) would become selfish and take over the business and property. In order to protect Prem and Vinod, Mamta schemes with Dhanraj (Sadashiv Amrapurkar) to alienate Vivek from the property and inheritance. This divides the family, even though Vivek & Sangeeta accept Mamta's wishes and leave the house. Due to the unconditional love and respect for his elder brother, Prem quietly revolts against his mother's decision and changes her heart. Hum Saath Saath Hain restores faith in the Indian concept of a joint family and gives Indian cinema one of the most ideal characters in its history Vivek and Prem.

The Ideal Diet for Hypothyroidism

2012-02-20T17:19:00.001-08:00

If you have hypothyroidism is very important to know that the type of diet you follow can help you reduce your symptoms, and at the same time help you control your weight. Weight gain goes hand in hand with hypothyroidism and to some people it gets rather difficult to lose weight with this condition.

There are key nutrients and foods that a diet for hypothyroid should include. On the other hand, there are certain foods that should be avoided.

What Your Diet Should Have

A healthy diet for someone with hypothyroidism would include whole grains, natural foods, plenty of fruits and vegetables and a good supply of seafood and other lean protein. You should cut back on fatty meats. A multivitamin is probably a good idea if you don't already take one.

An Important Mineral

Selenium may be the most important nutrient in a diet for hypothyroid.

Why?

This trace mineral is an antioxidant and is essential for converting the thyroid hormone your body produces, T4, into its active form, T3. Brazil nuts are an incredibly good source of selenium, but you can also get it from some lean meats.

Fiber is Key to Control Your Weight

Another tactic that will be very helpful for you if you're trying to lose weight is eating more fiber. Fiber makes you feel full and can help you lose weight, in addition to being helpful for constipation, another side effect of hypothyroidism.

You can ingest your fiber in pill form or through one of those over-the-counter fiber concoctions, but it is so much better if you get your fiber from actual foods, like beans, rice and other grains, whole wheat and oatmeal.

Strive for whole grains, also known as complex carbohydrates, over refined grains (things made with white flour or sugar). They're better for you, help maintain your blood sugar stable and will make you feel fuller.

Alcohol should also be avoided because it can cause blood sugar fluctuations.

A Diet With More Meals

Ideally, a diet for low thyroid function will include small meals spread out through the day rather than three big meals. If you eat five or six small meals it will help balance the slow metabolism that is part of hypothyroidism. Just remember, keep these meals around 300 calories each, and include exercise if you want to lose weight, too.

Some doctors recommend the Zone diet to those with hypothyroid. The why behind the system is somewhat complicated, but it has to do with balancing out your insulin reaction to food, limiting the spikes and crashes you probably feel right now. Carbs are a big part of this diet, particularly those refined grains we were just talking about.

The diet calls for drinking lots of water (a good idea for anyone), eating more fruit and vegetables and less pasta, bread and starches, and a small amount of lean protein through the day. Most of your carbs should come from fruit and vegetables, with other starches used sparingly. You also should not go more than five hours between meals.

Red Light Foods

As we were saying before, your diet should not include certain foods. Some vegetables, fruits and grains can depress the function of your thyroid gland. To learn about these foods visit diet for hypothyroid.

Increase Seminal Fluid For Better Sexual Health

2012-02-16T04:25:00.001-08:00

There are many natural ways to increase seminal fluid and improve your sexual health. The good news is that these methods are long lasting and will provide you with a healthy sperm count for a long time. The bad news is that these methods need to be maintained and could take some time to provide results. The methods of course refer to healthy lifestyle changes such as exercising and eating better.

Regular exercise can help increase seminal fluid by improving the circulation within the body. Good circulation will lead the testes to make more sperm thus increasing your sperm count. Exercise will also help you shed some excess weight. Overweight men have lower sperm counts so try to find your healthy weight by exercising regularly. This doesn't have to be an intense workout everyday, even a short walk for half an hour a few times a week could help you increase your seminal volume.

Cut the bad habits from your life such as cigarette smoking and alcohol drinking. These vices will damage your overall health and hurt your semen volume. You want to increase seminal fluid by maintaining a healthy lifestyle. So also try to have a stress-free life. A stressed out body is less efficient and will lead to a lower sperm count.

Finally, make sure you give your body all the nutrients it needs for optimal functioning. Eat healthy foods and avoid fatty artery clogging foods. Fruits and vegetables contain important vitamins and minerals that are needed for a healthy body. A health body is needed to increase seminal fluid so start by having a healthy diet. Semen increasing supplements are one way to get all the nutrients you need. Don't forget that old wisdom "vitamins make you big and strong".

Herbs That Help To Enlarge Penis Naturally

2012-02-15T02:46:00.001-08:00

Herbs that help to enlarge penis can be found in male enhancement pills, patches, erection oils and other products that improve the male sexual function. These natural herbs are the main ingredients that make up a lot of male enhancement products currently available in the market. They had undergone series of tests and trials to prove their potency in solving male sexual concerns.

Although there are a lot of speculations regarding the potency and efficacy of these herbs in increasing a male's libido and over-all sexual function, medical experts had come a long way to prove that they really work. In fact, many scientific studies show that these herbs do not just help in enlarging the penis; they also provide multiple sexual benefits. Some of these benefits include stronger and longer erections, better stamina, increased sperm production and better sexual performance.

Herbs that help to enlarge penis had been tested not just to work but also to deliver safe results. Some of these herbs act as part of the active formulation of numerous male enhancement products. Medical researches had been conducted to find the unique benefits of these herbs in giving solutions to male sexual concerns.

One of these herbs is Epimedium Leaf Extract which is also known as Horny Goat Weed. It had been found to contain icariin which can increase erectile function. It also increases blood circulation to the penis. More blood supply to the penis means a larger and stronger erection. Furthermore, it can stimulate the release of the male hormone, testosterone, which is responsible in increasing a male's libido and sexual endurance.

Cuscuta Seed Extract, which can be found in VigRx Plus male enhancement pills, had been found to increase the amount of live sperm cells of a man. It is also a known solution to premature ejaculation, a common problem among some men which greatly affects their sexual relations. A bigger, harder and more sustained erection is the male enhancement benefit of this natural ingredient.

The Gingko Biloba Leaf had been proven to provide numerous health benefits such as increased level of energy and better circulation. This plant also increases circulation to the penis to achieve rock-solid erection for a better sexual performance. More blood coming into the penis results to bigger erection. 78% of men suffering from non-medically related impotence had experienced the powerful results of Gingko Biloba without any side effects.

Other herbs that help to enlarge penis during sexual activities are Hawthorn berry, Catuaba Bark Extract, Taj and Safflower and other exotic plants that were discovered by scientific experts through years of research.

Are Plastic Food and Beverage Containers Safe?

2012-02-13T11:02:00.001-08:00

Question: Have plastic food and beverage containers been proven safe?

Answer: No.

During the film's graduation party in THE GRADUATE, Mr. McGuire pulls Benjamin Braddock (Dustin Hoffman) aside to offer sage advice for his future. His future would be one word: "plastics."

Of course, we all know Mr. McGuire's advice and prognostication was correct. Plastics can only be made by man in his infinite wisdom, hence they are patentable. The profit in the manufacture of plastics has been huge. Plastics are everywhere. Plastic manufacturing now uses 4% of the world's oil production annually. Automobiles are now 9% plastic. It is of my special concern that more foods and beverages are being put into plastic containers. Plastics are ubiquitous now. They persist and accumulate in our society as their production exceeds their chemical degradation rate. Harmful chemicals from plastics are now commonly found in groundwater, waterways, and drinking water.

While standing out in the summer heat in Phoenix, Arizona in 1981, my girlfriend asked me what was causing the film to form on the inside of the windshield of her new Mazda 626. She said that she had to wipe it off every morning so she could see to drive to work. I didn't know then. I do now! It was phthalates, the chemical that was added to the plastic dash cover to soften it and prevent cracking. I'm sure by now most of the phthalate has evaporated into our atmosphere and the Mazda is in some junkyard with a cracked up dash.

Phthalates are EDC's (Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals.) They are chemicals found in recycle codes #1 through #6 plastics. Another EDC (Bisphenol A) is in recycle code #7 plastics. All of these types of plastic EDC's interfere with the function of sex hormones receptors. In THE GRADUATE Benjamin was quite a stud. I wonder if he's now taking one of the popular drugs to treat erectile dysfunction, a disorder that has become one of the many epidemics in our new plastic world.

In 2003 a group of Croatian scientists reported that phthalates in plastics dissolved in various solutions. They used a variety of plastic items, including plastic food containers. After 10 days of sitting in distilled water, an average of 55.4 mg/ of phthalates from each kilogram of plastic "migrated" into the water. To a lesser degree the phthalates from plastics dissolved into acetic acid 3% (44.4 mg/kg) and 10% ethyl alcohol (32.3 mg/kg).

The Croatian study shows what Benjamin would suspect, if he took chemistry in college: Water is the universal solvent; and it dissolves even the primarily fat soluble phthalates. The more that you filter water to remove other toxic solutes, the more aggressive water becomes in its power to reach osmolar equilibrium by dissolving its non-inert containers.

What is also obviously missing from the Croatians' controlled, static testing model are the temperature variations that the plastic bottled water product goes through to get from bottling point to the mouth of the consumer. Transport trucks probably reach a very high temperature in the non refrigerated cargo areas that carry PETE (recycle code #1 plastic) bottled water in the summer. Heat facilitates the dissolution of phthalates into the water. Then the bottles may be stored for a much longer time than 10 days prior to consumption. Furthermore, freezing the containers produces micro-fissures in the interior surface of the plastic bottle container as the water expands, exponentially exposing more solute surface area. Traumatic handling or any motion of the package will further enhance diffusion. Applying the laws of physics, all of these factors clearly by extrapolation will increase the water dissolution of the plastic containers.

Fatty foods in plastic containers are even more problematic, as fats are absorbed differently and carry their phthalate solvents into our bodies more easily. Phthalates bio-accumulate because of their fat solubility. Phthalates concentrate in such fat organs in our bodies such as brains, prostates, testicles, ovaries, breasts and, unfortunately, breast milk. (The other popular food alternatives for infants are worse. Commercial baby formulas are loaded with the manmade phthalates.)

I think the worst example of food containment in plastic is milk. All milk except non-fat milk contains fat. Cow milk itself represents a major source of the fats ingested by the public, especially children. Cattle concentrate these chemicals by bioaccummulation because EDC's from plastics are ubiquitous in water and most animal food sources. Meat and dairy products are therefore a major contributor to this group of human food chain derived toxins, regardless of their containment. It is now irresponsible to add more phathalates to the products by putting the milk products in plastic containers that add MORE EDC's.

Cattle have intentially been "fattened up" by adding hormones AND unintentially "fattened up" more by the contamination of cattle food and water by EDC's. The combination of these chemicals passed on to the consumers in concentrated form in milk products will most likely exacerbate obesity in humans that consume them as well.

Our current scientific knowledge and common sense screams for an end to consumer purchase of milk bottled in plastics. Until milk companies have their products quantatatively analysed for these EDC's by competent independant laboratories, my strong recommendation is to avoid purchase and consumption of milk and dairy products contained in plastic.

Sadly, the Croatian authors' 2003 conclusions about the safety of plastics were: "These (exposure) levels would not present a hazard for human health, not even for a prolonged period of time." However, what was deemed acceptable levels of phthalates in 2003 now is recognized as "crystal clearly" too high.

Selective interpretations from the ACC (American Chemistry Council) lead to this erroneously high level being "set" for past toxicity standards. The ACC is an "industry group" advisor. It's much like the wolf guarding the henhouse. Thanks to the ACC efforts, control regulations placed upon this chemical class are minimal. An ongoing perpetuation of phthalate approval for use in virtually everything, including containment of food, has resulted. In fact, the perpetuation of these mythological high safety standards has resulted in the majority of our food being wrapped or contained in plastics that leach EDC's into our foods.

The ACC's Phthalate Esters Panel is made up representatives from BASF, Eastman Chemical, Exxon-Mobil Chemical, Ferro, and Teknor Apex Corporations. After graduating, Benjamin could have gone to work for any of these companies to share the wealth that plastics manufacturing have reaped, instead of hanging around and sporting Mrs. Robinson for the summer!

I love one of the rationalization examples the ACC makes on their PHTHALATES INFORMATION CENTER webpage: "Thanks to phthalates, your nail polish doesn't chip." I wonder if they are aware of the "unexplained" high rate of breast cancer in manicurists. I also wonder if they are aware that most breast tissues and breast cancers have sex hormone receptors that are acted upon by the EDC's found in plastics.

To further confuse the public, the ACC webpage also redefines the PRECAUTIONARY PRINCIPLE which in its un-perverted definition simply is: A (chemical) should not be considered safe until it is proven safe. Environmentalists who are trying to unravel the cause-effect relationships of environment chemicals, to the otherwise unexplained epidemics of various diseases now affecting man as well as every species on our planet, encourage its application. The ACC's watered down version suggests that cost effective, fearless risks are worth taking.

Can the ACC keep up the phthalate safety illusion forever? The American Tobacco Association almost got away with it!

We now know that EDC's, like hormones themselves require very minute amounts to have physiologic impact. EDC's are active in parts per trillion! For example, the usual adult maintenance dose of levothyroxine, a drug to replace depleted natural thyroid hormone in hypothyroidism, is 1.6 micrograms/Kg/day. Why would I even think about saying that a dose in the milligrams (1000 times as much as a microgram) of a known EDC would be safe, especially for a child or developing fetus?

We now know that phthalates also work in synergy with chemicals in other classes to exert "more than additive" physiologic effects.

Previous experiments in rodents showed that high levels of phthalates interfer with testosterone during gestation resulting in birth defects of the genitalia, testicular cancer, and infertility in the rats.

The ACC inspired acceptable level of phthalate myth should be blown out of the water with a recent study completed by the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry. This study of 85 human infant boys reported in May 2005 showed that phthalate levels found normally in the general population adversely influenced sexual development. The phthalate exposure these children had correlated with smaller penis size and incomplete testicular descent, which is a condition that greatly increases the risk of testicular cancer if left untreated.

Solution 1 - Choose glass containers over plastic for purchase and storage of food and beverages including milk and water.

American children can consume several milligrams of phthalate each day.

I wonder if THE GRADUATE's Mr. Robinson noticed that most of the teenage girls now-days have bigger breasts than his seductive wife (gynecomastia), and that they begin thelarche (breast development) and menarche (menstruation) at a significantly younger age, or that many more have an endocrine pathology called PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome).

The chances of a woman getting breast cancer in her lifetime has probably gone from a risk of less than 1 in 10 (10%) before THE GRADUATE was made to a 1 in about 7.5 (13.2 %) rate today.

The choice to avoid food chain plastics is a "no-brainer" when you understand how these chemicals persist and accumulate in our environment, and how they function in our bodies!

Solution 2 - Choose stainless steel containers over plastic for storage of food and beverages including water.

Unfortunately, we are past the point of no return with phthalates. Just like
cigarettes I think we'll have to live as prisoners with their impact on future generations. The only defense we have at this time is to individually choose to avoid them when we can, to mitigate their effects on our health.

Phthalates clearly act upon hormone receptors in both men and women. A concern is the potential phthalate impact on breast and other hormone sensitive tissue in human females, but phthalate's demasculinizing potential on males is more of a threat to all species on the planet.

Unlike Mr. McGuire, I think we can choose a better future by avoiding his "one word." We should start by trying to reduce plastics in our food chain exposures.

Bottom line:

I would strongly advise consumers to purchase beverages and non-solid food products packaged in glass rather than plastic if given the choice.

How Many Calories Can I Have And Still Lose Weight?

2012-02-12T20:03:00.001-08:00

To figure out how many calories you should have, first start with where you are. In other words, figure out how many calories it takes to maintain your present size and then reduce from there. You can go about this in many ways. Most people simply choose an arbitrary number like 1200 calories and that's what they eat, but in nearly every case that's not nearly enough calories to ensure adequate nutrition, not to mention the deprivation that sets up.

While losing weight and to this day, I eat over 2000 calories a day on average and I've maintained a good weight for my height for over 17 years. Remember, your body requires calories to maintain itself.

Basic Calorie Requirements Calculation Based on Activity Level:

Sedentary : 13 X Weight = Avg. cal/day

Sedentary is not exercising at all

Moderately Active: 16 X Weight = Avg. cal/day

Moderately Active is exercising approximately 3-4 times per week

Very Active: 19 X Weight = Avg. cal/day

Very Active is 5-7 strenuous exercise sessions per week.

If you weigh over 200 pound now, and you'd like to weigh closer to 150, here is a calculation you could use to get started: Assuming you are going to be adding enough exercise to quality as Moderately Active, we'll use 16 as our modifier:

150 pounds X 16 calories per pound = 2400 calories

Less 500 (Using the common 500 calories per day reduction) gives us a total of 1900 average calories per day

If you started to incorporate a plan that allowed an average of 1900 calories every day, you'd start to lose weight. The mistake most people make is to reduce calories too much, which ultimately sacrifices muscle plus sets you up for feeling deprived. It's far better in the long run to go more slowly, keeping as much muscle as possible while burning calories via exercise. Remember too, even if you don't eat quite that many calories on many days, you might eat more on the weekends for instance, so it ends up being closer to your goal of 1900 average per day. Take the total calories for the week divided by seven.

Remember, this average calorie number gives you plenty of wiggle room during the week. You can have some treats along with everyone else, or add more on weekends. Instead of constantly saying, "I can't, I'm on a diet," now you can say, "Thank you, that looks delicious," and enjoy some. It doesn't ruin your diet plan because you've got a large enough calorie allowance that if you are more careful some days than others, it will work out to the average number of calories you want. I tend to eat far less calories during the week than on weekends and my totals generally average out to 2000 to 2200 calories per day.

The 500 calorie reduction is a well accepted amount. You can reduce your calories further, but I wouldn't recommend it. It doesn't benefit anyone to try for faster weight loss, in fact, if you reduce your calories too much you end up wasting muscle in the process, which is exactly what you do not want to do. If you want faster results, it's better to add more activity, thereby burning more calories at rest.

You may be thinking I'm nuts, recommending 1900 calories per day, but I can say for a fact that if you eat too little (1000 - 1200 calories is too few, IMO) then you set yourself up for all of the following:

Deprivation. You're going to feel deprived, mentally and physically. 1000 calories isn't enough for your basic metabolic needs, much less to fuel yourself for your activity needs. Add more food! Just have a bit more than you're already having, so for instance, if you are allowed 1/2 cup of vegetables is a whole cup going to ruin all your progress? I doubt it. Eat a whole cup, or go ahead and have two oranges. Fruits and vegetables are very low calorie but provide high nutrition.

Sure, some vegis and fruits are high in sugar, but it's natural sugar. I seriously doubt our planet grows any killer foods - it is more likely the food industry which has processed those foods to become nothing more than a dried powder, then add back more sugars, and chemicals so it will resemble the original product, is more harmful than a simple apple or banana?

If you are diabetic or must watch the sugars, have a small bit of protein along with the higher glycemic food, such as an ounce of cheese with your apple. Notice I said an ounce of cheese, not a slab big enough to feed a small country.

Metabolic Slow-Down Feeding yourself too few calories sets you up for metabolic slow-down. Studies have shown time and again that a heavier person can find it difficult to lose weight, even though eating very low calories, simply because their body's metabolism is burning at such a slow rate. As you probably already know exercise helps to speed up your metabolism but so does eating. That's why they say breakfast is so important, not only to fuel yourself but because it starts the metabolic furnace burning, and it continues to burn all day. If you don't eat anything until noon, you don't stoke your furnace to start burning until then either.

Has the ultra low calorie approach worked for you so far? If not, why not try something more reasonable? Tag along with a friend who doesn't have a weight problem and you'll see how sometimes they eat more, sometimes less, but on average they eat enough to fuel their body and maintain their weight.

Adding more food gives you additional eye appeal. If you split up 1000 calories over the course of an entire day you're looking at pretty skimpy portions on your plate each time you eat. I like to feel like I'm getting enough to eat and I do this by rounding out my plate with extra vegetables.

If I'm having a frozen entree for instance, I'll cook up a cup or more of frozen vegetables to add to my plate. The extra vegis really fill me up, providing the satisfaction I need, and I often have a bit extra vegetables to throw away. Is that wasting food? No, it's smart. Far better for me mentally to have extra food to toss away than to be licking the plate because I'm still hungry. I'm also not likely to start wanting something else to eat right after dinner if I'm feeling content with the amount I've eaten.

Make an effort to learn to like your food as is. Plain mixed vegetables with nothing on them are delicious. It took me awhile to stop putting butter on them, and then even quitting the Molly McButter (just chemicals and sodium). I eat them plain and yes, they are great. Nature made our fruits and vegetables naturally sweet and all those "extras" we are used to using like butter on vegetables or potatoes certainly make things taste all yummy but they also make us larger than we need to be. Those "extra" calories add up.

Slowly Make Adjustments to What or How Much You Eat

Wean yourself off adding sugar to your cold cereal. Read the label; all processed cereals contain a ridiculous amount of added sugar. There's no need to add more. My only exception is brown sugar on oatmeal. I don't sugar my cereal at all anymore but it took me awhile to make the change. Start by adding a bit less, then next week cut back a bit more until you break the habit entirely. Tiny changes make up for big results over time.

If you feed yourself well, and focus on increasing your activity, even if only a little, then you will continue to lose fat, build muscle and get more shapely, all the while increasing your metabolism so you can eat more food!

IVF Implantation Help With Food

2012-02-10T16:13:00.001-08:00

In general, doctors agree that once you hit the implantation part of your IVF cycle, there isn't much that you can do to make things go your way. If your embryo is healthy and your womb is ready, you'll get pregnant, but if not, you won't. However, acupuncturists and other natural therapists seem to agree that certain foods actually can help with IVF implantation in different ways. There are different foods that are recommended for help with implantation, but walnuts, pineapples, and yams are some of the most common. While the scientific evidence behind these claims isn't too concrete, there is plenty of evidence from everyday people who have used these foods to increase their chances of getting pregnant through IVF.

Walnuts, Why Not?

Most nuts have high levels of Omega 3 fatty acids, which are helpful in treating infertility in general. In fact, in ancient Greek mythology, the walnut was actually tied to fertility in many ways, and it was used in fertility rites. The healthy fats in walnuts help boost sex hormones, and they can also help regulate the menstrual cycle. Walnuts also have a ton of other vitamins and minerals in them, so they can help boost fertility and your chances of implantation.

While we aren't exactly sure why walnuts help implantation rates, there is plenty of anecdotal evidence that they do. Some people think that it's the omega 3 fatty acids and the B vitamins in walnuts that help the egg implant itself in the womb.

Pineapple - A Controversial Helper

Many women and acupuncturists swear by pineapple's ability to help with implantation. For one thing, the bromelain in pineapple, which is a nutrient that it contains in higher concentration than pretty much every other food, is said to be an anti-inflammatory and also to increase cervical mucus. The increase in cervical mucus can make the uterus more "sticky," which can lead to increased rates of implantation. The most bromelain in the pineapple is found near the core, so many acupuncturists and natural therapists recommend eating the whole pineapple including the core.

One thing to note, though, is that there is also some evidence that pineapple juice in high quantities can cause cramps and can even cause spontaneous abortion. There's pretty much no danger of this if you eat just a cup of actual pineapple each day - which will be less concentrated than the juice squeezed out of the pulp. Just be sure that you keep things in balance and don't overdo it.

Yams for Fertility

Here's an interesting fertility fact: the Ibeji tribe in Nigeria eats yams pretty much every day, and they have the highest rate of fraternal twins in the world. Wild yams - not to be confused with North American sweet potatoes, which are sometimes called yams - have chemicals in them similar to estrogen and progesterone. They can help a woman produce more eggs during her cycle, which is one reason the Ibeji tribe has such a high incidence of twins, and they can also help with implantation by boosting a woman's levels of progesterone in her first trimester.

Eating a Balanced Diet

While all of these foods have been shown to help with implantation during IVF, the most important thing that you can do is to eat a healthy, balanced diet on a regular basis. Keeping your body healthy is essential to keeping your uterus and embryo healthy. Eat plenty of brightly-colored fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, and get your three servings of full-fat milk products a day. Plus, you should participate in healthy but low-impact exercises like yoga and qigong, both of which have been shown to boost IVF success rates.

Why Cottage Cheese Is The Healthy Cheese

2012-02-08T04:29:00.001-08:00

Would you believe that in France, alone, there are over 400 types of cheese that can be found? But when the word 'cheese' is mentioned and someone would ask what types of cheese he would be able to name, for sure, cottage cheese will be one of them.

Cottage cheese derived its name from 'cottages' where the cheeses are made, literally. It is prepared atop stoves homes found in the rural areas. People who originally manufactured the 'real thing' let nature take its course by leaving the milk to coagulate and turn sour.

Cottage cheese is a product of cheese curd but unlike most cheese, which is dehydrated and has color, this type of cheese retains its whey content because it is only drained, not pressed dry. The cottage cheese, unlike its relatives, does not undergo aging (maturation process) and it is also washed to give it its different taste--sweet and mildly flavored.

When cottage cheese is hard pressed, the end products are farmer cheese, hoop cheese, pot cheese or Queso blanco (blanco meaning 'white'). In Sweden, cottage cheese is commonly called 'Keso'.

A naturally manufactured cottage cheese is made from fresh milk, rennet and mesophilic starter culture (this would help grow 'good bacteria' which is needed in giving the cheese its flavor and aids in coagulation). It is very rare to find natural cottage cheese nowadays. Commercialization of this product has made it easier to make at a shorter period of time.

The commercially prepared cottage cheese, however, are made from curds that were prepared using skim milk or other milk products that are low in fat. This usually alters the original flavor of the cheese. So if one were used to the commercial cottage cheeses that flood the supermarkets, then they would be astonished to find out that these cheeses have deviated from the original 'tanginess' of the natural cheese.

If one is curious in tasting the genuine cottage cheese, the closest one could get to the flavor is the manufactured cottage cheese, which is low in fat, cultured and named Nancy's. The Springfield Creamery over at Eugene, Ore, prepares this.

What nutrients can one get from eating cottage cheese? Again, as compared to all other cheeses, this type of cheese has low fat (5 grams where 3 grams are saturated fat), low carbohydrates (3 grams) and high in protein content (14 grams).

If you are aiming for a sculpted body that is full of muscles and well toned, then cottage cheese diet is the right diet for you. Most people overlook the low carbohydrate content of this cheese. But looking at it, this low-carb food, which is high in protein, feeds the body of its needed nutrients during a strict diet.

This cheese also has sodium (500 milligrams), 120 calories and 20 milligrams of cholesterol. These values are computed against a 113-gram serving.

Some very interesting trivia about cottage cheese:

1. President Nixon loved to eat it together with catsup or black pepper (or both).

2. To make 15 pounds of cottage cheese, one needs to use 100 pounds of milk.

If one is bored with eating cottage cheese alone, there are several ways that it can be served. One good way is to follow President Nixon's recipe, which is to put a dash of pepper before plopping it into your mouth. Cottage cheese can be eaten like a 'tapioca pudding' (just add ½ teaspoon of vanilla flavor and a packet of artificial sweetener for every ½ cup of cottage cheese).

Cottage cheese is best eaten with fruits such as blueberry, strawberry, peaches, banana or pineapple. If one is concerned with the fructose content, however, a flavored drink mix could be used as a substitute for the fruits.

Speaking of 'yumminess', here are a few more of those recipes that use cottage cheese. You could research these recipes online:

1. Chocolate Mousse

2. Lemon Cherry Cheesecake Pie

3. Broccoli bread with Onion and Cottage Cheese

4. Cheesy Mashed Potatoes

5. All Day Macaroni and Cheese (Crockpot)

Cottage cheese is all good. When you're aiming for good health, then this should be a part of your diet. It's tasty and nutritious, so what is there to lose?

7 Tips For Improving Poor Foot Circulation

2012-02-06T21:21:00.001-08:00

Poor foot circulation is a problem faced by a growing number of people especially the elderly. The initial signs of circulation problems such as cold feet may seem like a minor inconvenience however they are a precursor to much more dangerous and life threatening complications if the poor circulation is not improved.

There are a number of simple methods that can help to improve blood circulation such as:

1. Get Active

One simple way to improve your poor foot circulation is to become more active. Physical activities such as walking, swimming, running etc will all help to improve blood circulation if performed regularly. Start off with a steady walk and increasing the pace and length of the walks over time will get the blood pumping and start to open up the smaller blood vessels.

2. Improve Diet

Eating a healthier diet and reducing your fat intake will improve your circulation because there will be less fat in the blood stream which will make the blood less viscous and allow it to flow through the small blood vessels more easily. Increasing fiber in the diet will also help remove fat from your system and improve the circulation even more.

3. Quit Smoking

Smoking is well known for increasing cholesterol buildup within the circulatory system but it also hardens arteries and makes other blood vessels constrict. To have any hope of improving poor circulation it is essential to quit smoking.

4. Reduce Stress

When under stress the body reduces the blood supply to the extremities of the body to provide adequate blood to the major organs. This means that circulation to areas such as the feet and hands will be affected. Some ways to combat stress are meditation, deep breathing exercises or maybe even watching a funny movie.

5. Raise Feet

If the poor circulation to your feet is making your feet swell then try altering the position of your feet at regular intervals. Lying on the floor and place your feet on the sofa for a short time will help the fluid drain from the feet and when you return to a seated position with your feet on the floor some freshly oxygenated blood can flow into each foot.

6. Warm Water Soak

Soaking your feet in a bucket of warm water or taking a warm bath will also helps the flow of blood into each foot. Adding some Juniper oil is also good. Doing this regularly will help circulation through the feet in the short term however it is certainly not a cure for the underlying circulation problems.

7. Supplements

There are several natural herbal supplements that help to improve blood circulation. Incorporating some of these into your diet along with some of the other measures above is the best approach to overcome poor foot circulation and prevent any further health risks that may arise should your circulation deteriorate.

Poor foot circulation should not be ignored as it is a sign of underlying problems with the circulatory system as a whole. Such problems can lead to heart attack, stroke, cancer and many other health risks so if you suffer from poor circulation then the time to take action is now before its too late.

When To Take Whey Protein For The Best Results

2012-01-25T21:41:00.001-08:00

What Are The Best Times To Take Whey Protein To Really Pack On The Muscle?

When it comes to taking whey protein, it makes sense to try and consume the whey protein supplement for the best results. If an aspiring weight trainer is just starting out and looking to supplement their diet with a protein supplement, it can be very confusing as to when to take whey protein for best the results.

Let me give you a personal example. When I first started weight training, way back in '86, my first protein supplement was Beverly International's protein powder. Of course, this protein supplement was not a whey based product but a cheap variation of soy protein mixed with milk proteins.

I'll be the first to say that these early protein powders mixed like cement and tasted slightly better. Anyways, I had no clue when to take this protein supplement. I basically took this protein powder once every two days. This was a complete waste of money with no benefit whatsoever.

First of all, my protein intake was very inconsistent which is not conducive to building muscle at all.

Secondly, every two days was not enough to affect my protein intake at all.

How was I supposed to know when to take a protein supplement? There was absolutely no information - No forums, no blogs, no Yahoo answers, no information sites (such as building muscle101..hehe), no internet, no nothing. If you were an aspiring weight trainer back in the mid '80's, there was not a whole lot of information to be found, let alone use.

Anyways, now I know.

Whey protein is a wonderful supplement since it contains some great muscle building properties that has one important element that most other protein sources don't have.

That is it's digestibility rate. Whey protein isolate for example (the purest form of whey protein), is one of the fastest acting protein sources today.

Once ingested, whey protein isolate can be in your system shortly thereafter.

As well as being one of the fastest acting proteins, whey protein isolate is rich in Branched Chain Amino Acids (leucine, isoleucine, and valine).

These amino acids are very important since they help prevent muscle protein breakdown during exercise and appear to preserve muscle stores of glycogen. In other words, whey protein isolate contains the muscle building properties that most weight trainers are looking for. This is very important to understand.

So, let's get back to the question: when to take whey protein?

Alright, so now you know that whey protein is 1) easily and efficiently digested, and 2) high in muscle building branched chain amino acids. All we need to know now, is when to take whey protein for the best results.

I've done some research and done a lot of personal experiments to see what works best. I've come to the conclusion that there are 3 windows of opportunity to put the power of whey protein to it's best use. Here is what I think are the best times to take whey protein:

o As soon as you wake up;

o 40 minutes prior to working out;

o Immediately after working out.

Let's take a closer look at each point for the best times to take whey protein.

1) As Soon As You Wake Up

"Get Your Body Ready For Growth!"

Upon wakening, your body is pretty much in a starvation mode. Whether you realize it or not, your body is craving for nutrients and needs these nutrients in order to kick start it's internal mechanisms to start building and working. Your body is weak and wants protein. The sooner you can get some protein into your body, the better.

Personally, I've found that a whey protein isolate drink mixed with some yogurt and orange juice works best. This is one of the more important times of when to take whey protein.

Now this is very important and one that can really boost your weight training results, OVERNIGHT! Approximately 45 minutes after you've consumed your whey protein shake, you must have a full, muscle building breakfast. By doing this, you are jump starting your bodies ability to use the protein effectively and efficiently. Believe me, if you can follow this one little tip, you will soon see your results skyrocket.

2) 40 Minutes Prior To Working Out

"Supercharge Your Workouts!"

If you have some pretty intense workouts, your going to stock up on some fast acting, high quality proteins. Whey protein contains high levels of branched amino acids which help preserve muscle stores of glycogen. This is very, very important. Since glucose is the bodies number one energy source, high muscle stores of glucose ensure high, intense workouts.

I would recommend you ingest a whey protein isolate drink mixed with some carbohydrates to supercharge your workouts.

3) Immediately After Working Out

"The REAL Secret To Building Huge Muscles!

In terms of when to take whey protein, this is the most important time to take in a fast acting protein drink. If you were to only have one protein drink per day, this is the time of day to take it. I'm going to very honest here, by simply taking a protein/carb drink right after after your workouts, you will improve your results immediately.

I strongly suggest that after your workouts, you ingest a fast acting protein source such as whey protein isolate and some fast acting carbohydrates.

Why carbohydrates and protein? When carbohydrates is taken with protein, there's a blast of insulin. Insulin kicks the body's glycogen making machine into high gear. Glycogen is considered the principal storage form of glucose and is found mainly in liver and muscle. Glucose supplies the bodies active tissues with energy.

Therefore, insulin will speed up the movement of glucose and amino acids into cells which is what you definitely want and secondly, it activates a special enzyme which is essential for glycogen synthesis.

Additional research has shown that ingesting a protein/carbohydrate supplement after exercise triggers the release of growth hormone. Great news for building muscle.

If you want to build muscle, always consume a power drink that is rich in whey protein and carbohydrates after your workout and include it in your weight training diet.

Try using the following drink for your post workout meal.

½ cup low fat yogurt

1 scoop(2oz) vanilla whey protein powder- 30 grams protein

1 tbsp honey

1 ½ cup low fat or 1% milk

1 cup orange juice

5 grams creatine monohydrate

Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Includes: 590 calories, 45 grams of protein, 93 grams of carbohydrates, and 6 grams of fat.

Remember to adjust the ingredients to match that of your own nutritional needs. Now, like your breakfast, you will need to follow this up with a full muscle building meal approximately 1 hour later. I am very serious here, because if there is one element that will put you on the track to fast muscle growth, this is it. Have the above noted drink immediately after your workout, no later than 30 minutes and you MUST follow this up with a full muscle building meal 1 hour later.

There you have it. If you can manage to follow the above noted schedule, I'm 100% positive that your gains will improve almost immediately.

Are Keurig Coffee Makers Or Tassimo Coffee Makers Better?

2012-01-24T21:45:00.001-08:00

Which of the popular coffee maker pods should you choose? The two most popular options are Keurig coffee makers and Tassimo coffee makers. They provide similar functionality but there are several differences between the two brands that can help you make your decision.

It's important to note to begin with that you can't go wrong with either of these two choices. Both companies are very highly rated and the people who buy them are almost always thrilled with their decisions. So the choice between a Keurig and a Tassimo isn't life or death, it really comes down to personal preferences.

Keurig Coffee Makers
Keurig has at least six different main models that run the gamut in terms of price range and features. The good news is that even the cheapest models, coming in at around $60 or $70 produce the same great coffee in the same quick time as the more expensive models.

The differences lie in style, design and the size of the water reservoir, as well as intended use. For example, they have a model designed specifically as an office coffee maker that is built to be rugged and withstand a constant bombardment of uses.

The coffee maker pods for Keurig are called K Cups. Keurig produces their own wide range of flavors and tastes. In addition, they have partnerships with many popular coffee manufacturers. You can get your Keurig K Cups with Caribou Coffee, Green Mountain, Newman's Organics, Emeril's and many others.

Tassimo Coffee Makers

Tassimo has their machines made by both Bosch and Braun. There are less total models available and while there are cheap options, on the whole they are a bit more expensive than what Keurig offers.

However, they are extraordinarily fast. With a Tassimo you can make your coffee in under a minute from start to finish, offering extreme convenience and ease of use. Another benefit to the Tassimo brand is that their coffee maker pods come in Starbucks coffee flavors. No other pods offer Starbucks, so if you're a fiend for them and want to indulge at your home or office, than it makes sense to go and get a Tassimo.

The bottom line is that both Keurig coffee makers and Tassimo coffee makers are extremely easy to use and produce great coffee. With Keurig you will have more choices in terms of the coffee that is available and the models. With Tassimo you will be able to enjoy Starbucks coffee in less than a minute. Both brands are popular and loved by those who use them.

Nutritional Benefits of Couscous

2012-01-15T19:05:00.001-08:00

Not so many people know what couscous is and fewer people have actually tasted delicacies and dishes made of this healthy food. Couscous is actually a grain food that is comparable to pasta or rice. It is actually made of semolina wheat that's moistened and then formed into tiny grain shapes. Couscous grains are smaller than rice grains and are dusted with flour so that they can retain structure. It can be interesting to know that couscous is staple food of some regions of the world and is considered like the pasta or rice in some countries. Just like pasta and rice, the couscous can be very versatile in terms of preparation and can be used in various dishes and salads; and they can also be used to prepare side dishes.

Since couscous is made from semolina grain, it is manufactured and sold in various ways. Some sell couscous without adding any kind of seasoning or without any extra ingredient. However, there are some stores that sell them in different varieties including couscous that are roasted in onion, garlic or olive oil. Amazingly, couscous can also be made with other kinds of wheat to give different flavors to it.

People from different parts of the world prepare the couscous differently. Some countries, like those from the African region, serve couscous in thin broth and in combination with cooked vegetables. In Morocco, however, couscous is served with lots of vegetables, sauces and beans. In Western countries, however, couscous is used more like an alternative to rice and pasta. If couscous is not local to your area then you can always buy them from health stores or from the ethnic food section of some supermarkets.

When it comes to nutrition, the couscous will never sell you short. It is, in fact, one of the healthiest grain-based products around. Its glycaemic load for every gram is 25% lower that of pasta. Not only that, couscous is also known to have superior vitamin content over pasta. To prove this, it should be said that couscous contains twice the content of niacin, riboflavin, vitamin B6 and folic acid compared to pasta. It also contains more thiamine and pantothenic acid.

Couscous is also a very good source of protein since it has 3.6 grams of protein in every 100 calories. Its protein content is the same as that of the pasta but a bit higher than white rice. Also, it would be interesting to note that couscous only has 1% ratio of fat to calorie making it one good alternative to rice and pasta if you want your food to be lower in fat content.

Couscous is, of course, a very good source for carbohydrates. If you are tired of cooking the usual grain staples like pasta and rice then the couscous can be good alternatives. With its carb content, it can be very satisfying hunger-wise despite its small grain size. The best thing about couscous is that it contains no cholesterol.

Remember that you can prepare by itself to take the place of rice or pasta or it can be cooked in combination with beef, pork, chicken and vegetables.

These tips should help get you well on your way to pleasing everyone!

Determine first how many people will be eating potato salad. Remember, most kids turn up their noses at the thought of anything mushy with potato lumps in it. But men usually heap it on next to their other favorites, so they will eat the portions the kids chose to pass up. Also, potato salad is filling. Many serving sizes are smaller than you think.

Take advantage of the "bags" of potatoes in the store where the potatoes are medium in size. Large potatoes take longer to cook, so they usually must be cut in half. The Idaho white potato provides a great flavor and cook well. Don't make the mistake of using red potatoes since they get too soft and turn mushy. Five potatoes will make salad for about 8 or 9 people. Then, just figure on half of a potato for each additional person over 9.

Next, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Tip.....Do NOT peel the potatoes. Just add them to the boiling water right out of the bag. Be sure to cut the big ones in half! Boil for about 20 minutes and when a knife sticks through them easily, they are done. Hold the warm potato under cool running water and the potato peeling just falls off! All the flavor of the potato will be in your potato salad.

While the potatoes cool, chop half of a large white onion. In a large bowl, mix the onion, about 1 cup of mayonnaise to start with (I use Miracle Whip), 1/2 cup of sweet pickle relish, 1 tsp. salt, and a little pepper. Then chop the potatoes as small as you want and throw them on top of the mixture. Mix well and add more mayonnaise as needed to reach the consistency that you like. I usually add more than the 1 cup before it's all done. You can also substitute with fat free products like yogurt, fat free sour cream, or low-fat mayonnaise.

Another ingredient I like to add is chopped, hard-boiled eggs. I use 3 eggs in a batch of potato salad feeding 8 or 9 people. Add the eggs last so they don't get too mushy. Stir it all together and cool before serving. Potato salad is even better if left in the refrigerator overnight before serving. If you are close on time, it's even ok to throw the bowl in the freezer for about 45 minutes to get it cold quick!

Potato salad is a "crowd pleaser". After you make potato salad following these simple steps, you will be able to adjust the recipe easily for your own taste. Using these easy tips, you won't make mistakes, like peeling away all of the flavor, overcooking the potatoes, or adding ingredients you don't need.

When I cook my potato salad, everyone wants my recipe! This recipe isn't even written down anywhere, until now. So, make this your recipe and enjoy!

Culinary Travels - The Lowdown on Lodi

12 Pomegranate Health Benefits

2012-01-12T05:53:00.001-08:00

Countless studies have shown the seemingly countless benefits of fruits for a person's health. The U.S. Government recommends that people get several servings of fruits every day. Of all the fruits available in the market today, one fruit is at its height of popularity because of its legendary Greek mythology association and its exoticism-the pomegranate fruit.

Considered as one of the earliest fruits that have been cultivated along with grapes, figs, olives, and dates somewhere between 4000 B. C. E and 3000 B. C. E., pomegranate continued to be an emblem of fertility, rebirth, and health.

Dubbed as a "miracle fruit" by some fans, pomegranate has earned its popularity because it is thought to possibly help support the body's natural defenses against Alzheimer's disease, various cancers, coronary and heart diseases, arthritis and many ailments an aging person experiences. Because of its so -called anti-aging possibilities, pomegranate has had several food and beverage variations from juices, ice creams, dishes, and even in water that come in bottles.

Why is pomegranate good for you?

This handsome fruit is quite popular for its deep and purple-colored juice that is packed with lots of antioxidants that may help in maintaining a smooth and wrinkle free skin. But, aside from the possibility of helping people to maintain youthful and glowing skin by keeping the blood platelets together, there are so many health benefits of pomegranate to people of all ages. While no health claims are made regarding pomegranate whatsoever, here are some of the remedies and uses that some people hope pomegranate can help with.

1. It may help reduce the risk of having a heart disease, heart attacks, and strokes. Studies show that pomegranate juice daily may help support the normal blood flow to the heart. Because of its antioxidant properties, pomegranate keeps bad cholesterol from forming, and thus, may help keep the arteries clear of clots.

2. It may help support the body's normal defense in the prevention of certain cancers. Since pomegranates has very high levels of antioxidant called "flavenoids" that is thought to be effective in counteracting various cancer-causing radicals, more and more experts recommend this fruit as a possible part of a healthy diet. Because of flavenoids, many people are consuming pomegranate because it is believed to help support their good health.

3. It may help reduce the risks for illnesses such as atherosclerosis, osteoarthritis, and diabetes. Because of the properties of pomegranate, conditions that are known to cause the thickening and hardening of arterial walls and damage in cartilage and joints are hoped to be helped by this fruit. Studies are needed of course to get test results. No claims are made as to what the pomegranate may or may not help.

4. It is a rich source of various vitamins. Pomegranate is a good, natural source of vitamins A, C and E as well as folic acid.

5. It is rumored to help reduce the possibility of having premature babies. Pomegranate juice and extract is thought by some people to help expectant mothers avoid having low birth weight babies.

6. Some users claim it is beneficial for relieving minor illnesses such as core throat.

7. Other users believe it might reduce the possibility of developing Alzheimer's disease among older people.

8. It is prized in some countries for the belief that it might help in achieving and maintaining a clear skin with youthful glow, and it is believed to help soothe skin inflammation.

9. The antioxidants are thought to help support the immune system.

10. It may help support healthy blood flow because of its iron properties. Pomegranate supports the blood by supplying it with iron, thus may help prevent anemia symptoms that include exhaustion, dizziness, weakness, and hear loss.

11. Aside from having lots of anti-oxidants, pomegranate also might have some anti-viral properties.

12. Pomegranate juice and extract is thought by some women to help in overcoming the feeling of general malaise during menopause.

While no medical claims can be made for pomegranate, the juice is growing in popularity every day as more and more people try it and benefit from it.

Wheat Grinders - Types, Prices, Usage, Recommendations

2011-12-30T19:05:00.001-08:00

If you are anything like me, the idea of buying, let alone actually USING a wheat grinder can be pretty intimidating. I am determined to accumulate a healthy-sized food storage and wheat is going to play a big role in that. I am also a fan of the mantra "store what you eat and eat what you store". Thus it quickly became apparent to me that I needed to do some heavy duty research in order to uncover all the mysteries surrounding "wheat grinders" or "grain mills" as they are officially called. With the help of internet research, some hands on research at several neighbors' houses, and multiple failed attempts in the kitchen, I have come up with a pretty good summary of what you need to know.

Types of Wheat Grinders

Manual Wheat Grinders

Pros

Inexpensive
Can be used with no power source
Small to store

Cons

SLOW to grind (mine took 6 minutes to grind one cup of flour)
Except for the very high-end models, you cannot grind a fine flour
Inconvenient (messy and hard to fit a large bowl underneath)

KitchenAid Attachments

Pros

Less expensive than an electric grinder
Small to store
Convenient to use and then mix bread in the same machine

Cons

I have heard from multiple sources that these units will BREAK your KitchenAid mixer
Not as fast at grinding as electric grinders

Electric Wheat Grinders

Pros

Grinds very fast
Useful for many types of grains, beans, nuts, etc.
Easy to select how coarse or fine to grind, and has a large range

Cons

Fairly expensive, even for the lower-end models
Must have a generator or battery pack to use with no electricity (unless you buy a high end model that comes with a manual crank)
A large appliance to store in your kitchen

Prices of Wheat Grinders

Manual Wheat Grinders

Low: $20-30 models will not grind flour, only coarse corn meal, etc. Not very useful.
Medium: $75-$175 is a good price range. Back to Basics Grain Mill is $75. It can grind fine enough for bread flour but not for very fine cake flour. Wonder Junior is higher-priced at $169 but it can grind into cake flour.
High: Up to $400 for the Country Living Grain Mill. It is quicker than other manual grinders and is able to grind a fine cake flour.

KitchenAid Attachments

$100-120, some may be used on any stand mixer.
Electric Wheat Grinders

Low: Under $200 for grinders such as the Blendtec Grain Mill. Its drawbacks are it is very noisy and cannot do very coarse grinds.
Medium: $200-$300 can get you a great grinder. The two most popular electric grinders are the WonderMill and the NutriMill. In my tests I found the WonderMill to be faster, quieter, cleaner, and easier to store. And priced at $239 it is even cheaper than the NutriMill which is $269.
High: Over $300 is an unnecessary amount to spend in my opinion. There are heavy duty models out there but you can get the job done with the mid-range models.

How To Use Wheat Grinders

Manual Wheat Grinders

Attach wheat grinder to your counter top
Place a bowl underneath
Pour the wheat in the funnel
Turn the crank (for a LONG time)
Wheat will filter into the bowl below

Electric Wheat Grinders

Select how fine or coarse you want to grind
Turn on the machine
Pour the wheat in the top
Wait for it to grind into flour (super fast)
Turn off the machine and pull out your canister of wheat

How To Use Fresh Ground Whole Wheat

Whole wheat bread can be delicious! I have gone through a lot of recipes trying to find the perfect balance of flavor, nutrition, texture, etc. for my wheat bread. Experiment with different recipes and types of wheat until you find what your family prefers. We liked using hard white wheat in a recipe that included gluten and oatmeal.
Pancakes even your kids will love! I took an IHOP corn cakes recipe and simply swapped all-purpose flour for whole wheat flour and it was amazing. My kids ate 3 each at one meal. They are delicious drizzled with honey over top.
Whole wheat oatmeal cookies you can't resist. I haven't tried any of these recipes yet but several of my friends said they prefer whole wheat cookies to regular cookies. Who wouldn't want an excuse to make cookies, hey it's rotating your food storage.
Much much more. I grind up a large Tupperware full of hard white wheat flour and store it in my freezer (it retains the nutrients that way). Whenever I do any baking I replace half or all of the flour called for with my whole wheat flour. If it is as good or better I add that recipe to my food storage recipe binder. It's a great way to experiment until you find what works for you.

My Recommendations

Emergency-Only Usage

If you are planning to use your food storage and wheat grinder only if an emergency situation arises, it is not worth the expense and hassle of buying and storing an electric grinder. At a minimum you should get the Back to Basics Grain Mill but I would highly recommend splurging for the Wonder Junior.
Every-Day Usage

If you plan to "store what you eat and eat what you store" I highly recommend the WonderMill Grain Mill electric grinder. If you are not planning to find an alternative power source for an emergency situation, then eventually pick up a Back to Basics Grain Mill as well. The price of these two combined are still cheaper than high-end electric grinders that have a manual crank option, and the functionality of the WonderMill is better for frequent usage.

Sugar Lovers Beware

2011-12-28T03:59:00.001-08:00

It would be fair to assume that almost everyone on the planet loves sugar and sweet foods. Processed sugar is in many products and is a key ingredient for baking. It seems that everyone has a sweet tooth for some sugar food in one way or another. Most people know to limit their intake of processed sugar, however, what most people don't know is that sugar is one of the worst ingredients to put into your body. The chemical reaction of sugar in the body acts as a poison. Studies show that sugar has drug like effects in the body.

Processed sugar has many harmful effects throughout the body and can cause major imbalances in the organ systems. You could say that sugar tends to throw off the homeostatic balance of the whole body by increasing the production of adrenaline by many times. In essence, sugar stimulates the nervous system by inducing a flight or fight response.

This is obviously not a healthy process. This intense reaction of the body increases the production of cortisone, which suppresses immune function and can lead to other health disorders.

The daily intake of sugar leads to many other imbalances and malfunctioning of the bodily processes. High sugar consumption leads to an overly acidic body and in turn will cause the body to strip nutrients from its reserves to counterbalance this effect. This can eventually cause the body to take calcium from the bones and teeth since calcium is the primary mineral used to neutralize high acid in the cells. Osteoporosis and arthritic conditions can result from this continued process.

Sugar and its Link to Weight Gain

Excess sugar consumption will eventually effect every organ in the body. Primarily, sugar is stored in the liver as glucose. Since the liver's capacity to store sugar in this form is limited, the liver will start to expand almost like a balloon with continued daily sugar intake. When the livers' capacity has been filled, the excess glycogen (glucose) is returned to the blood in the form of fatty acids (fat). The fatty acid compounds are then taken to various parts of the body and are stored as fat deposits in the buttocks, belly, breasts and hips since these are the most inactive body parts.

The consumption of excess processed (refined) carbohydrates has the same effect on the body. Eating foods with refined white flours and other enriched products can cause the same physiological effects. Consuming excess pasta, rice, chips, pretzels, and other high processed carbohydrates can lead to fat deposits on the body.

Many people do not understand how eating excess pasta or rice can cause weight gain since these foods has very minute quantities of fat and calories in them. The secret is...it is not that important how much fat or calories a food has. The real key is what biological effect does a food have in the body.

When the inactive body parts have become filled with fat then eventually the excess fatty acid deposits will become stored around major organ systems such as the heart and kidneys. This leads to the degeneration of these organs and in turn will cause poor health. This can result in poor immune response, poor circulation, high blood pressure, and can even impact brain functioning.

A False Energy High

Too much sugar intake gives one a false sense of energy. When you eat a sweet food, your energy will go up, however, it only feels that your energy is going up. In fact, this false energy is really your body being stimulated via the flight or fight response that I spoke of earlier. After this reaction has worn off, your energy levels will come crashing down as most people experience every day after they have eaten a high sugar food.

Most children that have ADD can completely heal themselves just by eliminating processed sugars in their diets. Children eat way too many processed sugars. The behaviors and bodily responses that these children feel are the flight or fight responses of their nervous systems. All forms of processed sugars such as nutra sweet, cane juice, corn syrup, brown sugar, splenda, powdered sugar and others have the same effect on the body. The chemical structures of these compounds are very harmful to the body and should not be consumed on a frequent basis.

Fruit sugars are very healthy for you. The monosaccharides (simple sugars) in these natural foods are in a structure that are beneficial to your cells. Fruit sugar has a much different effect on your body than does processed sugar. Fruit sugars nourish and energize the body naturally. This is true energy as compared to the false energy one gets from processed sugars. Your cells require the simple sugars in fruits consistently since they serve to fuel the body with the best substances. Make sure you consistently eat many fruits a day. I would recommend eating 4 to 5 pieces of different fruits a day for better health.

The True Bitterness of nutra sweet & sucralose (splenda tm)

What you are about to discover is information that has been known for quite some time by various health organizations. Please take this information seriously because there are agendas in place to hide this truth and to use it against you.

Aspartame (nutra sweet) is actually worse to consume than sugar. This technical name includes the following brands of sweeteners- (equal, nutra sweet, spoonful and equal measure).

Be advised that these compounds are very powerful and can cause severe biological effects in your body. To say that they are toxic is an understatement. The manufacturer of these compounds knows of the dangers in consuming regular amounts of aspartame substances. As I have already said there is an agenda for putting these compounds into various products.

If you want to know the true agenda then research it for yourself. I am not one who attempts to prove anything to anyone. I challenge you to do your own research and see if you can prove what I am saying wrong. In trying to prove me wrong, you will prove me right.

The Breakdown of Aspartame

Aspartame is a volatile substance, meaning that it breaks down very readily under normal storing conditions. Primarily, all aspartame compounds break down into methanol (alcohol), which is a known neurotoxin. The methanol in time then will break down into formaldehyde that is a highly reactive chemical that is damaging to the cells and genetics of the body.

This process can cause a number of neurodegenerative diseases such as alzheimers, lupus, multiple sclerosis (MS), and parkinson's disease. The methyl alcohol that forms from aspartame is thousands of times more potent than the alcohol found in a normal alcoholic beverage.

Reactions to aspartame products include the following: headaches, nausea, depression, fatigue, heart palpitations, slurred speech, breathing difficulties, memory loss, seizures and even death. Consuming high amounts of aspartame can also increase your cravings for carbohydrates. I explained earlier that consuming high amounts of empty carbohydrates (refined flours, pasta, rice, chips) will lead to weight gain.

Primarily, the effects of aspartame chemicals in the body seem to alter key hormones thus creating imbalances in neurotransmitters and blocking other hormone precursors.

So, why haven't you heard about these dangers before now? Let's see...the diet industry is a trillion dollar market to many organizations. Obviously, they don't want this secret information to get out to public ears if you know what I mean.

Aspartame & Children

Children love to consume sweets on a daily basis. Many of the food products that these children are consuming have aspartame sweeteners in them. I would advise all parents to get their kids off of aspartame food items. These foods are not healthy for them. There are plenty of healthy alternatives for any of the items that they enjoy.

Email me and I will give you loads of information. Many kids are diagnosed with ADD and other mood disorders. Many of these conditions are being classified as hyper, behavioral problems and others when in fact these children are being affected by the foods they eat. Look at a normal child's food intake for an average day and you will find that they eat way too much sugar and items with aspartame compounds and other chemicals in them.

This daily consumption of these sweeteners has a harmful effect on their nervous system and therefore becomes expressed as mood disorders and behavioral problems. Take these kids off sugar and these sweeteners and watch them improve.

Pregnant Mothers & Aspartame

If you or anyone you know is pregnant then I would say just stay away from these dangerous sweeteners forever. Make sure you read labels and make it a conscious intent to have the whole family keep clean of these products. It will help your whole family out I assure you.

If you are pregnant and consume aspartame foods you will only be hurting the development of the child. Doing so can cause neurological imbalances and other cellular damage. You are also hurting yourself. It is not worth the price just to have your diet soda. Please educate yourself more on this topic for it can save your health and the baby's health.

Products to Stay Away From

If you drink diet soda then are you most likely consuming aspartame. Most diet sodas and many other beverages are sweetened with one of the aspartame sugar substitutes. STAY AWAY FROM ALL PRODUCTS THAT CONTAIN THE VARIOUS FORMS OF ASPARTAME! These include aspartame, nutra sweet, splenda, spoonful, equal. Read your labels and throw away all items that have these compounds in them. Take responsibility for your diet. If you choose to continue to consume aspartame after reading this chapter well then you are the one to pay the consequences.

What Will I Use To Sweeten My Drinks & My Food

Relax! I know you enjoy sugar and do not want to give up great tasting foods and beverages. You don't have to. There are some great natural sugar alternatives that I feel taste better than sugar and the other toxic substances mentioned earlier.

To sweeten your drinks you can use Stevia. Stevia is a natural herb that is actually hundreds of times sweeter than regular sugar. It has no fat, carbohydrates or calories and is perfectly suitable for people with diabetes, low carb diets and people with candida and other parasitic conditions. Stevia does not cause spikes in blood sugar and has a nourishing effect on the body. It has been used for centuries among various cultures.

You can get stevia at any health food store in the dietary supplement section. There are 2 products: 1 is a liquid concentrate- I recommend this for sweetening beverages like teas and shakes. The other is a ground up version and is in powder form. I recommend this for foods like cereal or oatmeal.

Agave syrup is an awesome food product. You will love this sweetener guaranteed. It is a compound similar to honey only that it comes from a cactus plant in the desert. I believe that it tastes better than honey and can used on pancakes, cookies and to sweeten baked goods. Try it and see! You can find this at most health food stores. If they don't have it then ask them to carry it.

Rice syrup is also a good sugar alternative. It can be used in various ways and has a pleasant taste.

Date Paste is very sweet and can be added to baked goods and pancakes, waffles and cookies.

Fruit Juice Concentrates can be used to sweeten baked foods as well.

Barley Malt Syrup is another great alternative.

Honey - old time favorite for many, can be used also in various ways from sweetening drinks to sweetening baked goods. Use only organic varieties.

I would say to just buy some of these sweeteners and see which ones you like. They are all healthy to consume on a daily basis and you will feel the difference. You will not miss regular sugar believe me. Your body will thank you I assure by eating natural sugars. If you want some recipes on how to use these sweeteners then let me know via email.

The Truth About Sweet-N-Low

There have many reports that state Sweet-N-Low can be carcinogenic when used frequently. I remember when I was a child I heard that this can be a harmful compound to the body. The truth of the matter is that Sweet-N-Low is not harmful to your body. The chemical structure of this substance does not have any damaging effects to your cells as do the sugar substitutes mentioned earlier.

I stated previously that the important thing of any compound is the chemical structure and its biological effects once in the body. Sweet-N-Low has no negative effects once in the body. It is actually a good substitute for sugar.

So there you have it. You now know the truth about sugar and sugar substitutes. Please use this information immediately.

Our Four Favorite Raw Fruit Juice Recipes

2011-12-17T09:03:00.001-08:00

My feeling about juicing is that you should have as many colors of the rainbow represented in your juice. It makes for a more balanced body, raises your vibration and also helps all your chakras spin clockwise (meaning that they are healthy.) With that said, here are our favorite five-star juice combinations so far.

Note: The volumes make about 4 cups of raw juice. You then divide that into two quart Mason jars and add 2 cups of ice cubes to each jar. Dump the whole mixture into your blender and buzz it on High to make 4 cups of diluted juice. This makes enough juice for 2 people for the morning juicing. Ginger is great for increasing circulation and it gives your juices a "zip."

Juice #1: Cantaloupe juice with a ½ cup splash of Knudson's Lemon-Ginger-Echinacea juice (we were trying to use up what was in the fridge one day about 10 days into our juice fast.) One whole 8-10 inch cantaloupe makes about 4 cups of juice.

Juice #2: Apple (4 cups), Pineapple (1/2), Mango (1), Plum (2), Banana (2)

Juice #3: Peach (2), Plum (3), Ginger (2 inch chunk), Pineapple (1/2), Kiwi (1), Orange (2)

Juice #4:Apple (3), Peach (1), Banana (2), Blueberries (1 cup), Mango (1), Plum (2) and Lemon (1)

The fruit juices are definitely more enjoyable than the vegetable juices. We really tried a variety of fruits and vegetables during our 40-day juice fast.
General Juicing Rules:

Drink freshly prepared juice and do not store the juice for over 24 hours. If you can't drink it immediately, put it into a glass jar (filled to the top) and put a lid on it to prevent oxidation. Juice rapidly loses therapeutic and nutritional value during storage.

Raw fruits and vegetables are not always compatible when eaten together. Apples are the exception. You can also mix pears with Jicama.

Melons should be juiced by themselves. Making the entire meal melon is an option.

Avoid using pre-bottled or sweetened juices (like we did in the first recipe.) All the live enzymes are inactivated when they are pasteurized.

Minimize acid juices. Juices don't stimulate acids to be released from the stomach, but orange and tomato juice are high in acids and you may want to mix these juices with other less acidic ones.

About cucumbers. I've read that cucumbers may not be good to mix with other vegetables as they are in the melon family, but it seems to work fine for us. We do limit cucumber to less than 25% of the total volume however.

Don't add more than 25% green juice to your vegetable juices (unless you have a barf bucket handy! Woof.)

Juicing Greens--you might want to do this in between harder vegetables, the juice sludges at the bottom and doesn't pour out easily if you juice them first. For example, I juice a couple of carrots, then a bunch of parsley, then cram a couple more carrots in after the parsley to get the juicer moving again.

Dilute all fruit juice with water (one part juice to 2-4 parts water) and drink throughout the day. We've found that 2 cups fruit juice blended with ½ tray of ice cubes comes up to 4 cups--the perfect dilution and it's frothy cold.

Vegetable juices need not be diluted.

What to Juice:

During the fast, select juicing materials and teas specific to your health conditions. Most of the people I see in my practice do well on the Eat Right for Your Type diet (www.dadamo.com). Because of this, I recommend juicing those fruits on the Highly Beneficial and Neutral Foods Lists. Our fast was extensive, but you don't need to fast that long. A 3-day juice fast will give you lots of benefits and make your body healthier and more alkaline which is what you really need to stay healthy.

Weber Smokey Mountain (WSM) Versus Ugly Drum Smoker (UDS) - Which One Cooks Better Barbecue?

2011-12-16T14:09:00.001-08:00

The Weber Smokey Mountain (WSM) Vertical Water Cooker is a great smoker. It's low cost and quality features make it a favorite among the backyard smoker barbecue crowd. The features include a ceramic coated steel body and nickle plated grills. It has two cooking levels that allow you to have two barbecue dishes cooking at the same time.

The WSM is unique in that it comes with a ceramic/metal pan for holding water that provides moisture to the food while cooking. It will hold a load of charcoal that lasts a solid twelve hours with the proper venting. I use my WSM for pork butts and briskets all the time because it is convenient and easy to use. It beats my bigger offset smoker for the smaller "Q" smoked meat projects.

Weber just released a new model (22 inches) that is larger than the current model (18 inches). This makes the WSM very similar in cooking surface to the average Ugly Drum Smoker (UDS).

I have friends who are crazy about their UDS cookers. Most UDS cookers start life as a 55 gallon drum that has been cleaned and burned out inside to eliminate any contaminating substances. Holes, for air flow, and grates, for food, are added to make it functional. A charcoal box is also added to be the heat source. Just like the WSM, cooking on a UDS is directly over the charcoals.

The UDS cooking surface is also larger than the traditional WSM. A UDS, as a rule, does not include a pan or bowl for water.

A UDS is the really "low cost" alternative for real smoked barbecue cooking because most projects start by finding a throw away 55 gallon drum. You just have to account for the time you spend making it (which can be substantial) for a real cost comparison. There are several resources on the net to describe how to make a UDS.

For those that don't have the time (or the inclination) to make their own UDS there are ready made ones on the market. The cost is still relatively low and comparable to the WSM.

The unique thing about the UDS is that the drippings from cooking fall directly on the hot coals. This produces a distinctive taste for the meat that many aficionados attest is the closest thing to early times barbecue cooking.

Now, to the question of which one cooks the better barbecue.... If you like the taste of the meat drippings on the coals then the UDS wins, however, you can achieve the same effect in the WSM by removing the water pan.

If you don't like the taste of the drippings on the coals but like the simplicity and cost of the UDS just add a pan and grate below the top grate on the UDS to catch the drippings before they hit the hot coals.

They are both super, low cost, alternatives for cooking great smoked barbecue. It's just personal preference.

How To Eat Better

2011-12-16T03:00:00.001-08:00

Handle any emergency with Howcast's First Aid app - howc.st If your personal food pyramid replaces "Grains" with "Pizza" and "Fruits and Vegetables" with "Taco Sauce," it's time to make some changes. To complete this how-to, you will need: Unprocessed foods Fruits and veggies Fish And plenty of drinking water Step 1: Eat whole, unprocessed foods whenever possible. This means fresh or frozen fruits instead of canned, whole grains instead of enriched flour, brown rice instead of white rice, and as little fast food as possible. Avoid "low-fat" or "zero-calorie" processed foods, as they typically have more sugar and salt. Refining grains also removes bran, which contains most of the vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Step 2: Follow the FDA's recommendations to eat at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Try sprinkling berries in your cereal, drinking a fruit smoothie or juice, and adding extra veggies to your pasta sauce, pizza, casseroles, and even sandwiches. An official serving size is: a medium piece of fruit, a ½ cup of chopped fruit, ¾ cup of pure juice, a ¼ cup of dried fruit, a ½ cup raw or cooked vegetables, or a cup of leafy vegetables. Step 3: Pay attention to what, how much, and how often you eat. Absentminded eating is one of the greatest threats to successful weight management and long-term health. Don't multitask when eating. You'll often stuff your face with nutritionally poor foods that are convenient but not healthy. Step 4: Try to drink 64 ounces ...

Carrots - Better Cooked Or Raw?

2011-12-13T03:48:00.001-08:00

Some vegetables are believed better eaten raw because the contents of important substances are still complete. Now, the question is: are carrots the same? Are they more nutritious when eaten raw?

A study done in 2002 showed that the level of beta-carotene in carrots increases when they are cooked. Beta-carotene is a pigment found in vegetables which gives them red, orange, or yellow colors. It is one of antioxidant substances called carotenoids. It has an important role in helping reproduction, regulating immune system and vision quality, and growing bone.

Raw carrots have tough cellular walls which make our body able to convert less than 25% of beta-carotene into vitamin A. Cooking process dissolves cellulose-thickened cellular walls and free up nutrients by breaking down the cell membranes. It shows that they are different with other vegetables, since we better consume them cooked.

Further, the way you cook also determines the content of their nutrition. Various cooking techniques you usually do influences the amount of nutrition, including polyphenols, ascorbic acid, and carotenoids. A study showed that boiling and steaming process preserves antioxidants, especially carotenoid, than frying.

A new study done by Dr. Kristen Brands also gives us a brighter view. To increase carrots' anti-cancer properties by 25%, we better boil them first before slicing. They contain one quarter more of anti-cancer compound falcarinol than the ones chopped first before being boiled. Falcarinol can help reduce cancer risk up to 30%, as a study done by Dr. Brandt proved.

Besides deciding to enjoy raw or cooked carrots, choosing the fresh ones can also determine the nutrition. To get the best-quality, you must choose the ones with a smooth and firm surface. You can also purchase carrots with the most orange look since it means that they contain the highest beta-carotene.

Purchase the well-shaped ones with bright green tops. The carrots are old if the tops are shriveled. Put them in a plastic bag and store them in the refrigerator's vegetable bin. When going to cook them, remember that most of their goodness is located in the skin. You will be better to cook them with the skin if you want to get maximum benefits.

Using Tea For a Better Sex Life

2011-12-11T12:00:00.001-08:00

If you are a normal human living in today's society, you will have heard about the many different supplements that are said to improve your sex life. There are a number of pills and vitamins which supposedly can make a normal sex life better, and also help those who are having physical problems with their performance. Some of these remedies will work and some are simply designed to cheat desperate people out of their money. If, however, you are looking for ways to improve your sex life, you may wish to give some thought to an option which most people never even consider.

Tea has long given benefits to people who drink it often. The chemical compounds in many types of tea can affect the body in different ways. Many teas will help the body to expel harmful toxins while others can help to balance hormone levels. Some types of tea may even help you to have an improved sex life. They seem to provide a state of physical relaxation which makes the body more receptive to sensations, while other teas can help with the mental stimulation that lowers inhibitions and allows you to feel less inhibited in your sex life.

If there are certain areas of your sex life which need stimulation and encouragement, you can try various teas to help you target these areas. You may also choose to make a blend of all of these different herbs, thus creating a tea which gives a general boost to your overall sex life.

Ashwagandha is an herb which can be one of the most beneficial supplements you can add. In men, it can help increase sperm count as well as improve mobility and virility. In women, this tea can enhance the mental and physical stimulation that you feel before sex, making the act much more enjoyable. Distilling this herb into a tea can give you the boost and drive which will improve your sex life.

Kava Kava is another herb which will boost your sex. It will provides physical relaxation which makes your nerve endings more sensitive. This allows the sexual feelings that you experience to feel stronger than normal. Additionally, it can provide you with a mental charge which is said to inject extra passion into sex.

Damiana is another herb which will give you more physical relaxation and mental stimulation at the same time. It can also help to tone both the nervous system and the sexual drive, allowing both to become stronger and more vibrant over time.

Any of these herbs distilled into a tea will help to make your sex life more passionate than it might have been before. Whether you are looking to solve some problems you might be experiencing or to simply enhance something which is already good, turning to these herbal teas can give your sex life the 'boost' which you crave.

Is Eating Healthy Junk Food Better Than Eating Junk Food?

2011-12-11T01:30:00.001-08:00

Fitness professionals like me are frequently confounded by the internal contention people have regarding weight loss. People usually want to lose weight, but then they don't change the way they eat. For some reason people have trouble accepting that junk food is inconsistent with weight loss!

You have to get natural, unprocessed food if you're ever going to get anywhere with your weight. Come on! People say they want to lose weight, and then their kitchen is littered with all kinds of sugary, processed cereals, desserts, candy, potato chips, soft drinks and unhealthy juices. If people really wanted to lose weight, why is it that they don't want to bad enough to change their eating habits?

Most of the time people explain their refusal to give up unhealthy food because they want to have enjoyment in life. This is an oxymoron because the food they eat is actually creating death in them! In the end, eating bad food doesn't help you enjoy anything about life.

If you'd change your eating habits, you would find that you enjoy life more because you'll have more energy, have a better sense of wellbeing, and lose weight. You'll develop more self confidence and have a better life.

Sometimes people associate healthy food with tasteless, uninteresting food, but when you make an effort to change your diet you will discover that you will enjoy the natural tastes that you have been missing in all that sweetened and salted junk food.

A good example is how that if you'd switch from sweet tea to natural unsweetened tea; you'll be shocked if you ever try your old favorite again. You'll wonder how you ever drank that stuff. What happens is that you learn that you just don't need all that unhealthy food after all.

Another good example is coffee. You might think that you can't drink coffee without adding in sweeteners and flavorings, but if you gradually decrease what you use, you'll eventually discover that you can enjoy the natural flavor of black coffee after all.

The list of examples could go on forever. Once you change your frame of reference, you will enjoy food in the form closer to what was intended for you to eat in the first place! You no longer have to be enslaved to the processed food industry.

In order to lose weight, you have to be open minded, realizing that adjusting to new foods can take some time, but is essential to every aspect of your health. As you transition to a healthier diet, here are a few examples of healthy replacements for junk food:

Unhealthy: Chocolate candy, donuts, or cake.

Healthy: A serving of extra-dark chocolate (with over 70% cocoa content). This has less sugar and more fiber than your everyday chocolate.

Unhealthy: Deep fried and breaded chicken with French fries with tons of trans fat.

Healthy: Grilled chicken with veggies and peanut sauce for dipping.

Unhealthy: Cheap burger on white bun from a fast food joint.

Healthier: A burger made from grass fed, naturally raised beef (good levels of omega-3 fats and CLA) and organically sourced cheese on whole grain bread.

See? You can still get great tasting food even though it's healthier for you! Now you can really live a better, healthier life! Keep on making the transition to real food and you'll never want to go back to your old unhealthy eating habits. Good luck!

Avoid Fast Food - Ten Great Reasons to Cook at Home Instead

2011-12-10T15:27:00.001-08:00

Think you are in too much of a hurry to cook? Tempted to grab that fried chicken combo meal yet again to save time? Think again. Here are ten reasons you should avoid that burger and cook a great meal at home:

1. The Cost

The average cost for a fast food meal will range anywhere from $4 to $10, depending on the restaurant. Take even just that $4 and you could buy a pound of brown rice, a pound of beans, and a pound of frozen broccoli or other vegetable you prefer and make the equivalent of six meals. Spend one evening cooking it and have the rest for lunch for almost the entire week.

2. MSG

Monosodium glutamate is in almost all processed food and certainly in almost all fast food out there. All sorts of medical studies have revealed that MSG causes obesity, along with a lot of other nasty things. It's a chemical we should never put in our bodies, and yet it's something that is in virtually every processed food we buy. Free yourself from MSG by cooking from scratch at home.

3. Chemicals

All the techniques used to process food - canning, dehydrating and freezing - virtually destroy the flavor of food, so chemicals under the guise of "natural flavors" have been added to enhance the flavor, while color additives are added to make the foods look fresh. It might make the food look and taste better, but it's not doing much for our bodies.

4. Lose Weight Naturally

Start cooking real, whole foods from scratch and you'll be amazed to see the pounds drop off. Not only because you're avoiding chemicals (See numbers two and three above) but also because you're cutting out all that extra fat, sugar and salt.

5. Experience Great Taste

Once you are free of the MSG addiction, nothing will taste as good as your own home-cooked food from scratch. Buy a grain mill and grind your own flour. Once you taste it, you will never want to go back to store bought flour again.

6. More Energy

Real, whole foods give your body the power it needs in the natural way your body was meant to take it. You won't believe the energy you will have once you start eating foods you made from scratch.

7. Better Health

The fewer chemicals you have in your body, the better your health will be. Studies have shown that chemicals can cause obesity and cancer, along with neurological complaints. The better you feed your body, the longer you will live with a greater quality of life.

8. Avoid Traffic

Think of the gas money you will save if you stay at home and cook instead. Plus, if you make extra and take it for lunch, you won't have to get out and go anywhere at noon, saving you the hassle and even more gas money.

9. Save Time

Think you don't have time to cook? Consider how long it takes to drive to a fast food place. Even if you live right next door to a restaurant, it will still take you about ten minutes to order and receive your food. Since most of us don't live next door to a restaurant, transportation time to and from that restaurant is more like thirty minutes (fifteen minutes there, and fifteen minutes back). In that same amount of time (40 minutes total), you could have cooked a meal - without the hassle.

10. Satisfaction

There's no greater feeling than knowing you cooked a fabulous meal for yourself, saved money, saved time and improved your health.

So go ahead. What are you waiting for? Rattle those pots and pans and enjoy!

Secrets to Making Your Semen Taste Much Better!

2011-12-09T03:54:00.001-08:00

Are you looking for ways to make your semen taste better? This article will show you how to make your semen taste less bitter! You may wonder why you want your own semen to taste better in the first place. Most men want their partners to be more receptive to semen and enjoy it more themselves. If you are reading this article, this should also be your concern too. I am sure I need not go into details to explain further.

Let us get down to business. To make your ejaculation taste sweet, you only need to make some adjustments to your diet. Foods play a very important role in your semen taste. Here are some food that you should eat and avoid.

Foods/things to avoid

Foods such as onion and garlic. They are high in sulphur content, which makes your semen taste bitter. You need not get rid of them totally from your diet. You only need to avoid them days prior to the activity that you have in mind. Also avoid greens such as broccoli, asparagus and cabbage. Smoking and drinking can make your semen taste bitter, especially alcohol.

What you should eat

You might have heard that pineapple juice works perfect. If possible, eat the actual fruit. Pineapples contain enzymes that can help digest proteins, which actually makes your ejaculation taste bitter. You can also eat foods such as carrots as they are rich in vitamin A and beta-carotene. High chlorophyll greens such as celery and wheat grass can also make your semen taste better. In addition, make sure you drink enough water to flush out the toxins in your body.

5 Ways to Become a Better Footballer (Soccer Player)

2011-12-07T16:18:00.001-08:00

Football (or soccer as the 'non-Brits' refer to it as) is the most popular sport in the World. Millions of people play, at various levels, every single day. Most people play for fun, others professionally, however the aim of the game is almost always the same - WIN! During the course of the article I am going to suggest ways to becoming a better footballer (and thus increasing your and your teams chances of winning matches). All the suggestions made will result in improvements in your game, however some will take longer than others to 'flourish'. Here goes:-

FITNESS: Watch the top footballers and you will notice that they produce a lot of movement during the 90 minutes, often running 10-15km in the process. To do this requires high levels of cardiovascular fitness. To gain such fitness requires dedication and discipline. Another sport where participants have very high levels of fitness, probably more so than footballers, is boxing (maybe not always the heavyweights!). Therefore, my suggestion to improve your fitness would be train like a boxer! Not in sparring etc, but by rising early (ideally between 5-6am) and putting in a session. This should ideally include a distance run followed by cardiovascular activities such as skipping, star jumps etc. Add to that push-ups, crunchies and sit-ups and your fitness will begin to improve significantly. Ideally I would suggest your session should be no less than 1 hour, at least 4-5 times a week. Training so early will kick-start your metabolism for the day plus psychologically it will give you a sense achievement which should motivate you day ahead.

GOAL! Rise at 5.30am, 5 times a week and complete a 4-5Km run followed by 5 x 20 push-ups, 5 x 20 crunchies, 5 x 40 star jumps, 5 x 20 burpees, then hold the PLANK POSITION for as long as possible. TIP: This will seem difficult at first, but once you are into a routine it becomes easy. Have training clothes next to your bed and focus your mind so that you get out of bed immediately when your alarm goes off. Don't think about what your about to do, JUST DO IT!

DIET: You are what you eat / drink. You wouldn't put the incorrect fuel into your car, so why put it into your body? Your performance will be affected by what you eat / drink - in the short term and in the long term. Therefore, your overall diet should be well balanced with large potions of green vegetables and salad. Avoid junk food which you know to be detrimental to you - I don't need to list these foods, you know them already, but they just taste too good! Right? 'Garbabge' - they taste good at time of consumption, but how do you feel afterwards once your taste buds have returned to state - I'm guessing it's not great! Improving at anything requires discipline and often sacrifice. Give up the junk food and the benefits which follow will be far in excess of the 'quick fix' pleasure these foods provide.

Your water intake should be high - you should never actually feel thirsty as this is an early sign of dehydration. Replace consumption of fizzy drinks, tea and coffee with water. Drink a minimum of 2 litres and maximum of 5 litres (dependant on body size and intensity of exercise(s) performed) each day. Carry water with you at all-times, don't leave dehydration any invitations into your body!

GOAL! Drink 2-5 litres of water everyday, whilst avoiding fizzy drinks, tea and coffee. Eat portion(s) of green vegetables / salad or fruit with every meal. Snack every 2-4 hours on fruit / salad / vegetables or nuts. Eliminate junk food from your diet completely. TIP: Discipline and dedication are again the key. You don't become an extraordinary footballer by doing ordinary things!

TEMPERAMENT AND FOCUS: Temperament and focus before, during and after a match is a key ingredient to making a footballer better. Before a match you should focus on what the overall aim is. That focus must remain strong and constant throughout. This should not make you fearful or nervous, but ultimately guide you towards achievement. If you make an error or wastes an opportunity, this should not affect your focus as your goal is still the same. It is unlikely that your overall aim was to score at that particular moment or not to make that error at that exact time. Therefore, concentrate on what you can achieve in the remaining time, there will be plenty of time to review performance after the match has finished.

Finally, once the match has ended focus on winning or losing with dignity. This will not just make you a better footballer, but a better person. GOAL!: Before a match spend 15-30 minutes focusing on what you actually want to achieve. Be clear of your outcome. So often people fail because they don't know exactly what they are wanting to achieve.

DO THE SIMPLY THINGS WELL AND OFTEN: Not every footballer can do the things Cristiano Ronaldo, Zindine Zidane or Lionel Messi can do. But, all footballers can learn to do the simple skills often and well. I'm not trying to banish 'flare' and extravagant skill, rather dilute it. Learning to play short passes accurately and directly 100% of the time is an enormous advantage to any player. Great players, such as Paul Scholes and Claude Makele, are experts at doing the easy things well. This is something all players should adopt.

GOAL! Practice short passes, correct positioning, striking off the ball, tackling etc often and for a long period of time. Many players believe because they have mastered a technique they don't have to practice it any more - when in fact mastery and improvement comes from repeatedly practising an already learned skill. This sort of dedication and commitment ensures that in the crucial moments of a game when performing a skill or technique is vital you will be prepared.

LEARN FROM THE BEST: Why re-invent the wheel? If you want to become a top footballer, benchmark a top footballer. They may have natural skill, but to get to the level they have achieved is not by chance. If you want to get to the level of a certain player(s) copy what they do on a regular basis (the beauty of benchmarking is you can take the positives and eliminate any negative routines the player may have!). With footballers living their life in the media spotlight and all sorts of data being openly available on the internet, it's never been easier to benchmark.

GOAL! Chose a World Class player(s) you admire both on and off the pitch. Collect information regarding their diet, training methods and fitness ideas. Study their movement and all-round play in a number of games. Record games which they have played extremely well and analyse their qualities. Possibly contact them directly for advice and hints - if done elegantly, with your reasons for contacting them clearly stated, they should be more than happy to oblige.

Combine all the above with belief and you will most definitely become a better footballer.

Do you love the smell of delicious meat fresh off the smoker? It is juicy, tender, and perfect for the whole family to enjoy. The process of making the perfect meal starts with great smoker recipes. You must consider meat preparation, getting the right spices and seasonings, and the best sauce for your particular cut of meat. There are so many smoker recipes to choose from; choosing ones from an experienced bbq master is the best solution. Once someone has tried and tested many different recipes, they know what works best in different instances.

Smoker recipes usually have some kind of rub on the meats. Salt, pepper, chili powder, and brown sugar are very common ingredients. Always be generous when applying the rubs and spices to get the best flavor out of your meat. Start off with general smoker recipes and then you can customize them to suit your taste by adding favorite spices here and there. Experiment a little with different things to see what you like best.

When smoking meat, sauces are the other main ingredient. Tomato based or vinegar based sauces are the two main varieties of bbq sauce with smoker recipes. Depending on the geographic region you are from, the sauce varies. My personal favorites are the tomato based sauces. If short on time, you can just buy a bottle from the store.

Smoking meat is an art form when at its best. Many good books are written about the subject. Ones that are written by people who compete in competitions are best as they know the tried and true smoker recipes from experience. When you learn from the best, you are on your way to great bbq.

How to Make Sugar Free Cake Mix Taste Better

2011-11-27T09:54:00.001-08:00

Sugar free cake mix is a must-have in your pantry if you or someone else in your family needs diabetic desserts or just wants to cut down on your carbs or sugar in general. However, the last think you want is for your sugar free cake mix to turn out tasting like a diet dessert. Here are some tips that can help your sugar free desserts and cakes taste more like the real thing.

Using applesauce as a partial substitute for oil when you're making a sugar free cake mix can help cut down on both the sugar and the fat in the recipe, making it better for both diabetics and dieters. Applesauce improves the texture but don't overdo it-substitute about half of the oil with applesauce and you'll get a good result.

Another way to improve sugar free cake mix is to use a tasty dessert mix with no sugar added to create layers in the cake. A plain sugar-free cake can taste too, well, plain, but if you put a creamy and flavorful dessert mix in between like Lemon Dessert Mix it will add flavor interest. In addition, you can make sugar free icing out of a dessert mix like this by mixing preparing it according to the package directions and then mixing it with cool whip. You can also add the dessert mix right into the mix (also add one more egg than the cake mix package requires) in order to make a rich and moist pudding cake.

Another good fix for sugar free cake mix is to add canned fruit to the mix, like crushed pineapple or peaches. Pick fruit that's package in water, not in syrup, or you'll get more added sugar (and calories) than you bargained for, but the fruit can add a little bit of natural sweetness and moistness to what could otherwise be a bland, dry cake.

Finally, you can use fruit juice in place of water or milk with sugar free cake mix. Thawing orange concentrate is a good way to add orange flavor, which goes well with both vanilla and chocolate cakes, or apple juice can be used with angel food cake mix to add a delicate apple flavor. These are just some of the many ways you can improve sugar free cake mix so it doesn't taste like you're being deprived.

Easy Raw Food Diet Plans

2011-11-23T11:39:00.001-08:00

Changing your diet to a raw food diet could just be the answer to help you boost your overall health. Nowadays, we're all so busy and dropping to the local takeaway on the way home from work is often the quickest and easiest option for dinner. You may think it's really difficult finding the time and making the effort to eat better for your health. but if you break down the time it takes to prepare everyday meals, you may be quite surprised to learn just how quick and easy it is to prepare meals if you have some easy raw food diet plans.

Breakfast:

Simply grab a handful of green vegetables (spinach, broccoli, lettuce should all work here) perhaps left over from last evening's salad. Place them in the blender; add a squeeze of lemon or lime and a sliced pear. Mix for twenty seconds, pour and enjoy. This is a delicious green smoothie that will give you a great lift of energy every day, as well as providing plenty important nutrients. Time frame all up - about 5 minutes to prepare and drink!

Lunch:

A suggestion for a raw food lunch could be lettuce wraps stuffed with carrot slices, banana and avocado; a small bag of mixed unsalted nuts; as well as a healthy tomato veggie juice. You could probably make the juice yourself at home or else buy it on the way to work at a good juice takeaway. Time frame all up (including eating) - around 25 minutes

Dinner:

For dinner, a typical raw food menu could be a hassle-free tossed salad to start, raw zucchini pasta together with homemade pesto, accompanied by a side dish made of almond flour garlic bread, and then for dessert, banana ice cream. For the zucchini pasta, simply peel the zucchini and mix in with your noodles. The pesto is usually a quick mix of garlic, pine nuts and extra virgin olive oil. Some people prefer to use a dehydrator instead of an stove for the almond flour bread. As easy way to make banana ice cream is to freeze a couple of bananas then peel them and puree through the blender. This, surprisingly gives you very much the same consistency as ice cream. Time frame all up (including eating) - about 1 hour, not counting the time it would take to freeze the bananas and dehydrate the bread.

How to Cleanse Your Colon With Food

2011-11-22T22:43:00.001-08:00

Most people new to the idea of colon cleansing for good health, are turned off by the idea of doing an enema or colon irrigation. So they look for alternative methods to cleaning their colon, and one of the most natural colon cleansing methods they discover is food.

Food is one of the best techniques to use for keeping your colon healthy. Now, there are several approaches to using food for colon cleaning, so we'll look at a couple of those here.

First: The lack of food can help cleanse your colon. Technically this is called a fast, or a body detox technique. Using this colon cleansing method, you simply go on a juice only diet for about one week. Juice fasts can last for two to three weeks if you'd like though, and many people use them for both detoxing their body and losing unwanted body weight.

Juice fasts can be done using either fruit or vegetable juices, but if you're diabetic you may want to water down your fruit juices because they do contain high amounts of natural sugar.

Not everyone can handle going without solid food for a week or more though, so that brings us to our primary colon cleansing method:

Food. Yes, real, solid food that will fill your stomach.

The best types of foods to eat which will help your colon cleanse itself gently and naturally, are high in fiber.

Whole grain and bran cereals for instance, are an excellent way to get extra fiber into your diet and help clean your colon. You may want to try adding flax seed to your breakfast for even better results.

Anything green and leafy is another excellent source for helping to cleanse. Try eating plenty of vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, and various salad greens.

One of the best foods for helping you with colon cleansing though, is fruit. Blackberries for instance, have a whopping eight grams of fiber per cup, and all that extra fiber does a wonderful job of cleansing your colon. Prunes and prune juice are also excellent foods to use for cleansing your colon, and just about any other type of fruit or fruit juice which usually makes you have a good bowel movement will work as well.

The whole point of cleansing your colon naturally using food, is to increase your body's waste elimination process for several days at the minimum. You want to force your body to start flushing out the solid waste materials, so that it's also carrying the toxins and bacteria out of your body more quickly too.

Which Wine Goes With Which Food?

2011-11-19T15:06:00.001-08:00

Perhaps the most common question about wine is "Which wine goes with which food?" We're here to help you with that dilemma and make the 'art' of matching wine and food easy!

The contemporary wine connoisseur will match food with wines that are personal favorites without regard to a 'proper' match. The important issue is "Do they taste good together?" If so, they should be consumed together and enjoyed. The current rule is anything goes!

However, the more traditional connoisseur seeks to match wine and food using a long-established formula which, in general, is as follows:

Food & Wine

Beef : Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Chianti, Barolo, Brunello
Cheeses Ceddars: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon
Cheeses Swiss, Gruyere: Pinot Noir
Cheeses Blue: Sauternes, Sherry
Cheeses amembert, Brie: Chardonnay, Champagne
Cheeses Parmigiano, Romano: Chianti, Barolo, Sangiovese, Sherry, Port
Chicken : Chardonnay, Pinor Blanc, Zinfandel, Merlot
First course : Chardonnay, Champagne
Fis : Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, fruity reds
Lamb : Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, Chianti, Barolo
Ostrich : Beaujolais, Zinfandel, Riesling, Chenin Blanc
Pasta : Reds
Pork : Merlot, Zinfandel, Beaujolais, Dolcetto
Turkey : Beaujolais, Zinfandel, Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Chenin Blanc, Pinot Noir
Veal : Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Blanc, Barolo, Brunello, Chianti, Syrah
Vegetarian : Any of the above

Matching Wine & Appetizers

If The Appetizer is

Salty & Creamy : Light-to-medium bodied fruity whites or Champagne
Meaty & Creamy : Medium-bodied fruity reds with soft tannins
Sweet & Spicy: Fruity, dry whites
Smoky & Tangy : Light-to-medium bodied reds
Sweet & Pungent : Young, light-bodied fruity rose, whites or reds
Salty & Crunchy : Crisp, dry sparkling wines
Spicy & Creamy : Sharp, young, light-to-medium bodied fruity whites or reds

Drinks After Dinner

Serve brandy, port or liqueur with after-dinner coffee. Port may also be served earlier with the cheese.

Traditional liqueurs include:

Apricot brandy: Sweet brandy flavored with apricots.
Baileys Original Irish Cream: A blend of Irish cream, fine spirits and Irish whiskey.
Benedictine: Named after the French monastery where it originated. A liqueur, brandy-based, flavored with herbs.
Chartreuse: A sweet green or yellow liqueur made by Carthusian monks.
Cointreau: A brand of orange-flavored liqueur.
Crème De Menthe: Mint liqueur
Drambuie: A Scotch-based liqueur.
Grand Marnier: Orange liqueur
Southern Comfort: Based on bourbon whiskey and flavored with orange and peach.

In summary, match what you like since most wines go well with most foods. By the way, if you are unsure in a restaurant and choose to ask your waiter, consider the advice as to the 'type' of wine recommended (Chardonnay, Merlot, Pinor Noir, etc.) but then look again at the wine list for one within your price range. The waiter will often will select a vintage or label that is top of the line in price.

Dessert wines are typically sweet. However, we recommend that the sweet Muscat or Sauternes may be best enjoyed alone after the meal is complete. They are to be sipped in total relaxation after a great meal!

Freeze Dried Food Storage Vs Dehydrated Food

2011-11-07T03:12:00.001-08:00

If you have never tried freeze dried food storage, then you may be wondering how it differs from regular dehydrated food. Both are preserved items that have long shelf lives, and both are often used for things like emergency preparedness and quick-prep meal solutions. Hikers and backpackers also use them because they are lightweight, easy to carry on long journeys, and super easy to prepare.

Freeze dried food and dehydrated food use vastly different techniques to "dry" out food. Both are created using preservation processes that zap the moisture content out of food, preventing it from spoiling for an incredibly long time. But they are distinctly different in many ways. Below is a comparison of freeze dried food storage and dehydrated food.

Dehydrated Food

Dehydrated food is created by subjecting food to heat. Typically this means sun drying or air drying in a hot temperature. It is sometimes used in home storage supplies because of its long shelf life, but is most often used for daily cooking and snacking. For example, people love to much on dried fruit and they love to cook with things like sun dried tomatoes. Dehydrated meals are however often used by backpackers because they are super lightweight, compact, and inexpensive.

Taste

The drying process used to created dehydrated food changes the taste and texture. The foods lack much of their original flavor. They are also have a chewier texture. When it comes to taste, you can get really robust flavors out of dehydrated foods, like sun dried tomatoes, if you cook them for a long time.

Nutritional Value

The air and sun drying process also diminish much of the nutritional value out of food. Yet while it is diminished, snack foods like dehydrated fruit are popular because they are higher in fiber than many other foods.

Cost

The air and sun drying process don't require expensive equipment and are fairly simple, so that makes the foods less expensive. You can even make dehydrated food at home if you have the right equipment.

Freeze Dried Food

Freeze dried food is created using a cutting edge flash freezing process. This particular preservation process keeps food in a state of suspended animation. When reconstituted, the meal is exactly as it was before it was flash frozen. Freeze dried meals are in high demand when it comes to home food storage. Some can last up to 30 years without going bad. Some families even have 1 to 3 years worth of freeze dried meals for food storage supply purposes only, while some choose to eat them on a daily basis because they provide a balanced diet.

Taste

The flash freeze process preserves all of the foods original qualities including taste. When reconstituted the food regains its aromas, flavors, and textures. And today, many food storage companies are creating really gourmet freeze dried meals.

Nutritional Value

The flash freeze preservation process also preserves all of the foods original nutritional content. This means that freeze dried food has much more nutritional value than dehydrated food.

Cost

Superb taste and high nutritional value make flash frozen meals more expensive than dehydrated food. Along with this, the equipment used to freeze dry food is highly expensive and that also adds to the cost.

Is A Premium Dog Food Really That Much Better For Your Dog?

2011-10-23T23:42:00.001-07:00

==========The Scoop on Premium Dog Food========

If you're interested in premium dog food, then I probably don't have to tell you about the importance of diet in keeping your dog active and healthy. You already know you want something better than "average" for your furry friend.

But how much do you really know about what's in a premium food and what your particular pet's needs are? I'm no veterinarian but I do know a thing or two about health and nutrition. (As a family dentist who practiced for twenty years, I saw first hand the effects of poor dietary habits on human health -- and particularly on human teeth!!).

Like you, your dog has to deal with the effects of stress, age, exertion, a polluted environment, and foods grown in nutrient-depleted soils. Unlike you, he has to get practically all of his nutrition from a single food. Sure, you may give him a few treats or the occasional table scrap (not too many I hope!), but otherwise he's eating out of the same bag or can day in and day out. You want him to get complete nutrition out of that one food.

===========Complete Nutrition?===============

Even the experts seem to disagree on exactly what complete nutrition is. Maybe this explains why there are so many formulas for premium dog food out there. There's one thing they do agree on, though: premium dog food is better for your pet than economy and grocery store brands. Although you'll pay more, it usually holds true that you get what you pay for.

Experts also agree that, because premium foods are more nutritionally dense and easier to digest, your dog won't need to eat as much. One study even concluded that if you fed your dog the recommended amounts on each package, you'd end up saving money on the premium formulas. That's because your dog needs to eat a lot less of it. (You'll save on pooper scoopers too!)

Another way to know if your dog is getting a proper diet is simply to observe him. Are his eyes bright, his coat silky and shiny, and his skin free from dryness and itching? Is he at a healthy weight? How about his energy level? This may vary from one animal to another, but as you get to know yours, you'll know when your dog isn't feeling up to par.

Of course, any persistent health problems should be looked into by your vet, and the same goes for any special dietary needs. But in general you'll know if your friend is doing well on the diet you're feeding him. If you see signs that he isn't, try a different formula or another brand of premium dog food.

Introduce new foods gradually, especially if you have a picky eater. And while we're on that subject, it's always nice if your dog enjoys eating his food. This has a lot less to do with taste than it does with smell. Dogs have fewer taste buds than we do, but about 40 times as many scent receptors. So make sure he eats with gusto, and doesn't just pick at his food.
Here are some basic guidelines you can follow:

============Essential Nutrients=============

Every dog needs the right amounts of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water. Your dog must have all these in correct proportions to stay healthy. Needs vary with life stage, breed and activity level. Dog food companies make premium dog food for all life stages, from puppy to senior. An average adult dog needs a daily intake of about five ounces for every ten pounds of weight, with essential nutrients in the following proportions:

Protein --23% of total intake

Fats --5% of total intake

Carbohydrates --65% of total intake

Additional vitamins and minerals your dog needs are: Vitamins A, D, E, B-complex, Niacin, Biotin, Folic Acid, Choline, and Pantothenic Acid; Calcium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Sodium Chloride, Magnesium, Iron, Copper, Manganese, Zinc, Iodine, and Selenium.

It's generally agreed that dogs do better on a protein source that's primarily meat rather than soybeans and grains. Check the label. All US food labels must list ingredients in order of their quantity. If meat by-products are listed, they should come after the real meat, not before it. Meat by products are an inferior source of protein, and are basically what remains after the good quality meat has been removed. "Crude protein" can be a similarly poor source, since it may include parts of the animal that can't even be digested or absorbed by the average dog (hair, beaks, etc.).

Omega fatty acids are a hot topic in human nutrition these days, and have been found to be just as important in the canine diet. Both should be present, and in the right ratio. Most premium dog food companies have done the research on this and adjusted the ratios, but as usual, ask your vet if your uncertain.

===========Wet vs. Dry============

You can buy premium dog food in just about any form, but which one is best? Again, most experts seem to agree. Dry food is less likely to allow plaque to accumulate on the teeth, less likely to harbor bacteria if left out too long, and results in firmer, more compact stools. Semi-moist foods are convenient but for some reason (I'm not sure what) don't offer the same nutritional benefits as premium kibble or canned foods.

That said, I have also heard arguments suggesting that a diet of exclusively dry food can be a strain on a dog's kidneys. So, to be on the safe side, check with your vet.

===========Life Stages============

Puppies need more calories and essential nutrients than adult dogs. They need up to twice as many calories per ounce of body weight and should get 25% to 30% of their energy from protein depending on the breed.

Most premium dog food brands take this into account in their puppy formulas, but it doesn't hurt to check the label. By six to eight weeks of age a puppy should be fully weaned and eating his dry food consistently. After that, different breeds reach their mature weight at different rates, by anywhere from 9 months to 24 months old. So it's hard to give an age or weight by which you should take your pet off puppy food. Again, your vet can help out here.

Also, remember not to try to "rush" the growing process by overfeeding. If she grows too fast, a dog can develop bone growth diseases. A puppy should get three to four meals a day because he's growing fast but still has a small tummy, but don't overdo it with portions size.

Adult dogs need to eat according to their size and energy requirements and should be fed two meals a day. This is frequently referred to by the premium dog food companies as a "maintenance diet".

Unlike cats, dogs are not strictly meat eaters. In fact, a dog is more like an omnivore and will eat just about anything, whether it's good for him or not! A certain amount of vegetable matter is part of a dog's natural diet. Dogs love vegetables such as broccoli, carrots, zucchini, peas, and beans, and fruits such as bananas, apples, and melon. These make great low-calorie treats, too!

One thing you should never feed your dog is chocolate--it contains a chemical called theobromine which is toxic to dogs.

Senior dogs need a premium dog food that will help head off and manage the effects of aging. Since different breeds vary so much, it's hard to give an age by which you should switch to a senior diet. The ASPCA recommends using weight as a guideline, and offers the following:

Small breeds or dogs weighing less than 20 pounds:7 years of age

Medium breeds or dogs weighing 21 to 50 pounds:7 years of age

Large breeds or dogs weighing 51 to 90 pounds:6 years of age

Giant breeds or dogs weighing 91 pounds or more:5 years of age

The ASPCA recommends that you begin dealing with the symptoms of old age before they're obvious. Just like us, dogs will begin to accumulate more body fat as they age even as they consume fewer calories. (At least we're not alone!). Muscle mass will tend to decrease, but this doesn't mean you should lower your older dog's protein intake. If anything, protein is more important than ever to help maintain muscle mass, so avoid senior dog food formulas with reduced protein.

One thing you will want to feed him less of is calories. Obesity is a real problem with adult dogs, and many owners don't even realize their dog is overweight. Aside from portion size and calorie content, one way to avoid an overweight dog is to resist giving him table scraps. Most human food isn't good for your dog.

===========How Much to Feed============

How's your dog's weight? You should be able to feel your dog's backbone and ribs with light finger pressure, but not actually see them. If you have to "dig" to find them, your dog is overweight and if you can actually see her ribs, she's underweight.

If you're not sure how much to feed, you'll love the interactive Dog Food Calculator on PetsMart's home page! It's the result of considerable research that has been published in scientific journals and accepted by industry experts. You can determine the right amount of food to feed your dog and find out how long that 40-lb bag will last!

===========Supplements============

If you're all ready feeding a nutritionally complete premium dog food, do you still need supplements? This is another hotly debated topic. As a rule, it seems that most dogs do just fine without supplements. For certain dogs and certain conditions supplements can make a differenced. For example, a dog who isn't thriving and there's no other medical explanation for it might improve with supplements. Or, dogs with certain skin conditions have been known to improve on supplements. Since there's a danger of doing more harm than good, you should definitely discuss supplements with your vet.

If you do decide to use one, pick one that's made from natural sources and is designed as a multivitamin formulated specifically for dogs. That way she'll get everything in the right amounts and ratios. Add it to the diet twice weekly so you won't overwhelm or suppress your dog's own internal regulating mechanisms.

=======Special Diets==========

There are many reasons why a dog might be put on a special diet. Some dogs are very sensitive to certain ingredients in commercial dog foods. Even if you're feeding her the best of premium dog food, if your dog isn't thriving, it's possible her diet is a problem for her. Owners have resorted to alternative diets -- holistic, raw foods, even kosher -- to optimize their pet's health. Some choose these diets simply because they believe they're better, not because their dog is having any issues.

We'll discuss special diets in a future article. For now, I hope you've gained some useful insights about the benefits of premium dog food over and above economy brands.

Natural Treatment of Baby Eczema - Fewer Bath Products and Better Nutrition May Be the Answer

2011-10-20T16:39:00.001-07:00

Steroid creams and ointments commonly prescribed for eczema can cause adrenal damage in infants and children

Steroid creams and ointments are the most commonly prescribed treatment for eczema, but can have dangerous side effects, especially for infants. Steroids are easily absorbed through the skin, and children can absorb a high percentage of the drugs because their skin is thin and they have more skin in relation to their body size. Even short courses of treatment with steroids can cause damage to the adrenal glands, which regulate the body's hormones.

Steroids work by interfering with the chemicals the body uses to signal inflammation. They turn off the inflammation response and cause tiny blood vessels called capillaries to constrict, reducing redness and swelling. Topical steroids also suppress the body's immune system and can lead to an increased susceptibility to fungal or bacterial infections of the skin.

Before using a steroid medicine, caregivers should work with a pediatrician to see if the baby's skin condition is caused by a nutritional deficiency, a food allergy, or irritation from soaps or moisturizers.

What causes baby eczema?

According to the National Institutes of Health, eczema affects up to 20% of infants and children in the United States. The rate of eczema has been rising for years, and is highest in industrialized countries. Hundreds of studies have been undertaken, linking eczema to food allergies, atopy (a triad of conditions including allergy, asthma and eczema), heredity (a child is more likely to get eczema if a parent has an atopic condition), household income (the rate of eczema seems to increase with higher income), houses that are too clean (the "hygiene hypothesis"), houses that are too dirty (dust mite allergy), urban upbringing vs. rural upbringing (kids who grow up on farms have the lowest rates of all atopic conditions)... the list goes on and on.

As eczema is a sign of an underlying condition and not an illness, the answer is probably "all of the above." Eczema can be triggered by food allergies, by contact allergies (contact with irritating substances), by nutritional deficiencies, and as a side effect of other diseases like insulin resistance and diabetes. The eczema trigger is different for each person--and may depend a lot on genetics.

The nutrition hypothesis

The nutritional value of the food we eat has changed dramatically over the past several decades. "Factory farming," where fields are sown with the same vegetables year after year, fertilized with petroleum by-products and sprayed heavily with herbicides and insecticides, has reduced levels of key vitamins and minerals in vegetables. Meat and dairy animals are raised on huge feedlots, fed an unnatural diet of grain and animal by-products, and heavily dosed with antibiotics to keep them alive long enough to slaughter.

Eczema is strongly connected with nutrient deficiency, so it's not surprising that a decline in the nutritional value of food would coincide with an increase in rates of eczema.

Early bathing may irritate newborn skin

Bathing routines and products we take for granted may interfere with the development of healthy infant skin. Babies are born with sterile skin, which is covered by a thick, creamy substance called vernix caseosa. Vernix has antimicrobial and antifungal properties that protect the baby's skin in the womb and after birth, when the baby first comes into contact with bacteria in the outside world. World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines for newborn care specify that, to protect the baby, vernix should not be removed for at least six hours. Unfortunately, in modern societies this protective substance is immediately washed off in the hospital, leaving the baby's skin vulnerable to colonization by bacteria and fungi.

Newborn skin is very thin and loses moisture rapidly. It takes a few weeks for infant skin to develop the "acid mantle," a slightly acidic (pH about 5.5) mixture of sebum, sweat and "friendly" bacteria. (By adulthood, skin may be colonized by nearly two hundred different species of bacteria.) Ideally, over the first few weeks of life, a baby's skin is colonized by beneficial bacteria picked up from close contact with the mother and family. These bacteria perform an important function: they keep skin healthy by preventing colonization by disease-causing microorganisms. If this important step is compromised, skin can be colonized by harmful bacteria. The skin of people with eczema tends to carry a high concentration of Staphylococcus aureus, bacteria which cause skin infections, pneumonia, and even Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

Excessive bathing, soap, and moisturizer use can interfere with development of healthy skin

Infant skin will naturally develop a healthy acid mantle and strong immune defenses if it's allowed to. But again, bathing routines and products we take for granted, including soaps and moisturizing lotions, can interfere with this process.

Infant skin is so delicate that even exposure to plain water disturbs it enough to dry it out. Soap accelerates this process by raising the skin's pH and removing beneficial oils, resulting in impaired skin protection for hours after bathing.

Fragrance and preservative chemicals in soaps and moisturizers irritate skin further, and can actually affect the way skin develops. What's worse, these chemicals can be absorbed through an infant's skin into the bloodstream, potentially affecting the baby's developing hormonal system.

A healthier way to care for infant skin

Babies' skin doesn't get very dirty for the first few weeks of life, so generally the less it's interfered with, the healthier it will be. Adding a half-teaspoon of lemon juice--to reduce the water's pH and add skin-friendly ascorbic acid--and a teaspoon of sunflower or safflower oil to the bathwater will keep baby clean without harming skin. If a moisturizer is needed, use a fragrance free baby oil containing sunflower or safflower oil, which are excellent moisturizers and have the added benefit of helping to prevent bacterial skin infections.

If your baby's skin does become irritated, bathing with Epsom salts or Dead Sea salts is a safe and clinically proven way to soothe irritated skin. (Epsom salts are not salt at all, but magnesium sulfate, a natural mineral effective for soothing inflamed skin. Dead Sea salts are evaporated mineral salts from the Dead Sea in Israel.)

Some magnesium in an Epsom salts bath is absorbed through the skin and is a safe way to supplement this important mineral, while Dead Sea salts provide a whole range of vitamins and minerals essential for healthy skin, including magnesium, zinc, potassium, copper, and B vitamins. A teaspoon of bath salts is plenty for an infant bath.

For older kids and for gentle cleansing when soap is required, try a natural bar soap or highly diluted castile soap, like Dr. Bronner's.

Nutrition and healthy infant skin

Nutritional factors affect how a baby's skin develops, too. Deficiencies of zinc or magnesium are fairly common and cause symptoms which are indistinguishable from other types of eczema. A deficiency of vitamin B6 may result in seborrheic dermatitis, or cradle cap.

Baby eczema may be a sign of zinc or magnesium deficiency

When a breast-fed baby develops eczema, the mother's diet is often suspected as the cause. However, the eczema may have nothing to do with food allergy. Breast milk is often low in zinc, and a sign of zinc deficiency is dry, irritated skin. Recent studies suggest that zinc deficiency may be much more common than previously suspected. Low levels of magnesium may also cause eczema-like symptoms by raising the level of histamine in the blood and making the body more sensitive to allergens.

A simple blood test can identify a zinc or magnesium deficiency, and supplementing with the missing mineral may solve the problem. A special kind of zinc can also be applied as a topical cream for absorption through the skin. Caregivers should talk to their pediatrician about correct dosing before giving a baby a vitamin supplement.

Formula-fed babies may also be deficient in vitamins or in essential fatty acids (EFAs) - fats which are essential to healthy development of the brain, nervous system and skin. Some babies may not be able to utilize the vitamins and fats in baby formula, or the formula itself may not provide enough of them. A doctor or knowledgeable nutritionist can help caregivers choose a more appropriate formula or supplement with the necessary vitamins and essential fatty acids-especially zinc, magnesium, and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a type of EFA.

Food allergies and eczema

About 30% of infants and children with eczema test do positive for food allergies. A baby or child has a much greater chance of developing food allergies if either of the parents have allergies themselves. The most common allergens include cow's milk, soy, egg, wheat, peanuts and shellfish. In breastfed babies, allergens from foods may pass directly to the child through breast milk. Avoiding these foods while breastfeeding may keep the child from developing eczema or other allergic reactions. The La Leche League website has an excellent page on allergies and breastfeeding.

In formula-fed babies, changing the formula may eliminate the problem. Special, easy-to-digest hydrolyzed formulas (formulas where the proteins are partially broken down) are often recommended for formula-fed babies with food allergies. Adding probiotics or prebiotics - beneficial bacteria that live in the gut and help digest food - to infant diets helps to reduce or prevent both food allergies and other illnesses and has been shown to help relieve eczema, too.

Breastfeeding longer, introducing solid foods late (after 6 months), introducing new foods one at a time, and waiting to introduce allergenic foods until after the baby is about a year old help reduce the risk of allergic reactions. Most babies outgrow early allergies to milk and eggs, although peanut allergy is more likely to persist to adulthood. However, children with food allergies are more likely to develop asthma or other atopic diseases when they grow older. Caregivers should talk to their pediatrician if they suspect a food allergy. A food elimination diet should only be utilized under a doctor's supervision, to limit the risk of nutrient deficiency.

Treating the root cause of eczema, rather than the symptoms, will start your baby on the road to a lifetime of healthy skin.

Knob Creek: Machine Gun Night Shoot October 2010 (HD)

2011-10-17T19:10:00.001-07:00

This event is the culmination of THE BEST GUN SHOW you could ever attend. You are viewing the first 6 1/2 minutes of the Knob Creek Machine Gun Night Shoot. Fully automatic weapons including the most modern M16 variations, AK47, .50 BMG, minigun, and classics from every major military conflict of the past century. Plus a few flares! Targets included propane tanks, automobiles, appliances, and large drums of fuel. This "outburst" ran for about 10 minutes, but the intensity had pretty much subsided at the 7 minute mark. Several shooters either did not reload, and/or they were no longer shooting tracers and incendiary ammo. The main range where the video was filmed is approximately 350-400 yards in length, and has a huge hill as a backstop. Due to the dry ground conditions and volume of smoke, you will notice the view becoming much more cloudy beginning around the 2:00 mark. I was standing several rows back in the crowd, well beyond the left side of the shooting line. It is nearly impossible to get a clear unobstructed view. The majority of the shooting line is under a shed, and that area is crowded with security and Knob Creek support staff. Plus, factor in thousands of attendees, many holding their cameras high over their heads (as I did) to get the best possible view. This event is held twice each year, in April and October. The October 2010 event was the first I had ever attended, and I was immensely impressed. VERY IMPORTANT TO NOTE......attendees for these events make ...

Healthy Meals to Lose Weight - Eat Your Way to a Better You

2011-10-13T10:36:00.001-07:00

If you're looking for healthy meals to lose weight, then you're in luck. You are what you eat. Those words aren't just a catch phrase. They are the truth. Whatever you put into your body is obvious on the outside. So if there is weight you want to get rid of, you have to focus on what you are eating first. You must alter your diet and make healthy meals to lose weight. You must also examine when you eat your food, because the when, is almost as important as the what in your daily dietary habits. Once you have a clear understanding of what and when to eat, your body will start to look and feel better.

Let's begin with a quick examination of what to include in your healthy meals to lose weight and what not to include in your healthy meals to lose weight. Remember, you are trying to cut calories without starving yourself into binge eating. Be careful as you make the shift to better eating and don't simply eat less. You goal is to eat healthy foods to lose weight. Include sources of protein in the form of lean meats, eggs, or soy products. Include a complex carbohydrate with your meals, like whole grain bread. Fruits and vegetables are your friends, so eat as many as you can. Combining them to make interesting shakes or salads is a great way to add some culinary interest. The more green leafy vegetables you take in, the more results you will see. Healthy meal plans also include plenty of water. It cleanses your system and flushes toxins away from the skin.

The foods to refrain from including in your healthy meals to lose weight are pretty obvious. Cut down on your fat intake by eating lean meats. Avoid junk food at all costs. Cut out processed carbohydrates, or those carbohydrates found in refined pastas and breads. Cut down on your alcohol consumption. Stop frying your food! Grill, broil, or bake it instead. If you make a salad, mix your own dressing using lemon juice and oil. Don't cover your salad in a layer of cream and mayonnaise, thereby negating the value of the vegetables by covering them in a layer of fat.

Now that you know what to eat, you need to take a look at when to eat your healthy meals to lose weight. Five or six small meals throughout the day is sometimes more easy for the body to handle than the traditional three meals a day. Eating smaller portions also causes the body to adjust its idea of full, and you will find that you need to eat less in order to feel full. Don't eat before bedtime. No matter what you put into your body, it will sit there all night, so no bedtime snacking. Now that you know how to make your healthy meals to lose weight and when to eat them, you can start to reap the rewards. Eating healthy to lose weight is an admirable goal and you'll start to see results in no time.

Muscle Building Foods to Perfect Your Body Composition

2011-10-07T20:45:00.001-07:00

Unless you're training to be a stunt double for Jabba the Hutt, you're training your body to get a better-looking body composition, right? Eating the right muscle building foods with your workout will ensure this happens in your lifetime. Here are some pointers.

Contrary to the diet mindset out there, when you're building muscle, carbs are a good thing. Carb-loading will help ensure that your body uses the carbohydrates as energy instead of your protein shake - which you need your body to earmark for new muscle tissue. Eating the right carbs at the right time will also trigger insulin release, which also helps build muscle.

Next up in the muscle building foods list is the protein shake. Whey protein is a favorite, though you can research further on what works for you. You'll also want to take a casein shake before bed because it takes a while to break it down, giving your resting body protein stores to keep building more muscle and stay satisfied.

Add to the protein shake foods that are high in protein. Great sources are lean chicken or turkey - and ostrich is fantastic, by the way - lean beef, fish and eggs. Be sure you're getting at least one of these with each meal.

Finally, you need to remember - drink plenty of water. It's probably said too many times, but you need more water than you think when you're training. Replacing your electrolytes while re-hydrating is a fantastic way to make sure you're getting all you need for proper recovery, and especially if you don't like water.

This list isn't exhaustive - there are so many foods you can include. These are the must-haves, the basics, to ensure you get a proper diet along with all that hard training you're doing. The great thing is, with so many choices, you won't feel like you're hitting "replay" on the remote. Mix it up and keep gaining!

Foods to Help Increase Semen Volume

2011-10-07T06:03:00.001-07:00

You Are What You Eat:

What to Include in Your Diet to Increase Your Semen Volume

The maxim that you are what you eat holds true when it comes to your fitness level as a person. But did you know that your diet can also have a positive effect to one particular aspect of your life that you want to improve? That is none other than your sex life.

Basically, one of the things that men look at as a problem regarding their sex life is that they find their semen volume to be quite lacking. To increase semen volume is to generally up the ante in your sex life due to a number of reasons.

First, a high volume of semen load is something of a turn on for most women. It's also a symbol of male virility, endurance and even fertility - that is why most members of the male species get alarmed if they find that the volume of their ejaculate seems to be lower than usual.

So how can you actually work to increase seminal volume? Again, it all goes back to your diet. By having a lifestyle which has a generally healthy diet, plenty of exercise and by keeping yourself hydrated at all times, it will be much easier for you to naturally increase semen volume without resorting to buying expensive pills.

Increase Seminal Volume by Including these Food Items in Your Diet

To help you out in your quest to increase semen volume so that you can have a better sex life, here are some food items that you can include in your diet, as well as additional food-related tips:

1. Eat foods which are low in fat in high in protein.

Not only will a high-protein, low-fat diet help to increase semen volume, but it will also do wonders for your overall health. Combine this with eating a lot of fruits, vegetables, beans, wheat germ, oatmeal and other whole grains which are rich in fiber.

Did you know that your diet can even affect the way that your semen tastes? If you're lucky enough to regularly receive some oral loving from your partner, treat her to something sweet by eating foods that will make your semen taste sweeter: cranberries, pineapples and papayas are good for this. If you eat a lot of junk foods combined with beer, your semen will taste bitter.

2. Minimize your consumption of alcohol and caffeine.

Remember that the fluid produced in your semen is made up of 98% water. As such, you should always keep yourself hydrated if you want to produce a decent volume of load when you ejaculate. In addition, steer clear of beverages which may cause you to be dehydrated, such as alcoholic drinks and coffee. If you must drink these, always drink plenty of water afterwards to compensate.

3. Try out these other food items to increase your sperm volume.

Aside from increasing your libido, oysters are also a great way to increase your semen volume. Celery is another vegetable which contains components that stimulate your sexual desire, not to mention increase your semen volume at the same time.

Finally, power-pack your diet with foods which are rich in zinc and you're all set. By following these diet tips, you can eat your way towards a healthier diet, an increased semen volume and a better sex life.

If you want to fast track your results?, there are powerful supplements that can fast track your, these products are safe, natural products that have concentrated amounts of the best ingredients to aid in semen volume enhancement and sexual reproductive improvement overall. I have reviews on my site below for your information.

Feed Your Face - 5 Top Foods for Better Skin

2011-10-04T11:54:00.001-07:00

Water. Ok, no surprise here. Water is the best way to keep your skin plump and hydrated. It keeps dry skin and wrinkles at bay so drink up!

Salmon. By now most of us have heard all about the heart-healthy benefits of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids found in fish oils. These wonder fats are also important to your skin, fighting dry patches, eczema, and other conditions that rob the skin of a smooth, youthful glow.

Wheat Germ. Just one tablespoon of this powerhouse food is packed with skin essential B vitamins, along with vitamin E and Selenium. The B family of vitamins aids the skin in cell regeneration and combats the hormones that can cause unwanted blemishes. Vitamin E and Selenium work together to reduce the risk of skin cancer and fight against premature aging. Sprinkle some in your morning cereal or add a little crunch to your yogurt for a skin-friendly snack.

Orange Fruits & Vegetables. Vitamins A & C play vital roles in our goal for healthy skin. Carotene, the substance that gives carrots and sweet potatoes is deep orange color, turns into vitamin A inside the body. This powerful antioxidant helps to both deter wrinkles and fight cancer causing radicals. Vitamin C is another important antioxidant. When used topically, it helps reduce age spots and when taken internally it helps stabilize the skin's collagen creating a more elastic, supple texture. Next time you shop the produce section, look for rich, orange fleshed fruits and vegetables, like carrots, pumpkin, apricots, and papaya.

Blueberries. A recent USDA study ranked blueberries number one is cancer fighting antioxidants. Blueberries are rich in phytochemicals that not only give them its lovely color but also provide a wonderful source of antioxidants. Combat the unpleasant effect of smoke and other environmental toxins with ½ a cup of blueberries a day.
