Antioxidants are the key to better health

May 12th, 2009

antioxidentAntioxidants are substances or nutrients in our foods which can prevent or slow the oxidative damage to our body. When our body cells use oxygen, they naturally produce free radicals (by-products) which can cause damage. Antioxidants are naturally present in your body, and you may know some of them as Vitamin A, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Beta-carotene, Lutein, Lycopene, Coenzyme Q-10 and other names.

Here is a list of commonly known antioxidants:
Vitamin A and Carotenoids – carrots, squash, broccoli, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, kale, collards, cantaloupe, peaches and apricots.
Vitamin C – Citrus fruits like organs and limes, etc. Green peppers, broccoli, green leafy vegetales, strawberries.
Vitamin E – are nuts and seeds, whole grains, green leafy vegetables.

“Antioxidants” is a collective name for a number of substances of different types, but with the common quality that they stop harmful free radicals. Their effects on the human body are amazingly beneficial. Antioxidants are present in many foods, most famously in berries, certain vegetables, red wine, green tea and even dark chocolate, and are also beneficial when taken as supplements. One of the great things about antioxidants is that they are not drugs or pharmaceuticals – they are essential and naturally occurring compounds.

The research in antioxidants is increasing every week, with more and more scientists becoming fascinated by how these natural compounds may make your life better. Therefore, many of the good things about antioxidants are still to be discovered.

The JD Premium Antioxidant blend is loaded with those high quality antioxidants needed for the body. If you haven’t tried them, take a minute and order them today!

Choose good foods while eating out!

May 12th, 2009

02A10K75There are many people who eat out every day for lunch or in the evening just for fun and convenience.  Unfortunately, the restaurant menus are filled with landmines of destruction to your health.  Here are a few ideas for choosing a healthy way of eating out:

1.  Look for light options on the menu.  There are many restaurants that have light, low fat or healthy sections on their menus.  Check out the list and decide to lessen the fats and calories.

2.  Order a salad or soup first.  Get a healthy start on your meal.  Many times after eating the soup/salad you will find that you are not as hungry and taking the food you ordered in a carry out bag can give you another meal for your next day’s lunch.  You don’t have to eat everything on your plate.

3.  Speaking of eating everything on your plate, find a good friend or ask your spouse if they will share the meal with you.  You can add an extra potato or salad to this shared meal and you will feel satisfied instead of stuffed with the large meal.

4.  Avoid fancy drinks.  Most mixed drinks like margaritas or pina coladas are full of sugar.  Don’t order soda pop with your meals because the waitress will continue to bring you extra glasses of the drink.  Before you know it, you may have drunk 4-5 refills which adds up huge in calories and sugars.  Ask for extra lemons or limes for your water to be able to enjoy the flavored water if water isn’t your favorite thing to drink.

5.  Stay away from hidden fats.  Descriptions on the menu like “creamy, stuffed, sauced, or breaded” generally indicate that the dish is heavy with fats.

6.  Ask for what you want.  If the meal you want only comes with fried chicken, ask if you can have it grilled instead.  Also ask to replace your stuffed potato with a side of extra vegetables.  If they bring bread to the table, ask that they do not.

Take the health responsibility for what is served to you in your local restaurants!

MEDICAL TIP: Take Responsibility for Your Own Health from Dr. David Bowman.

May 5th, 2009

02A10NU5After seeing patients for over 15 years, I have come to the following conclusions:

1.  Take care of your health.  If you don’t take responsibility for your own health, nobody else will.  Whether you see a doctor or listen to other people’s advise about your health, the bottomline person who is responsible for your health is YOU.

2.  Ask for written material from your doctor or bring a pad to write on.  You need to take a note pad with you to write down what the doctor says, and, if necessary, have him give you written material on what is going on with your health concerns.

3.  Be assertive. If your doctor is standing with his or her hand on the doorknob and you still feel confused, then say so. You should never leave a doctor’s office with unanswered questions.  Ask him the questions on your mind; or better yet, have your questions written down ahead of time.

4.  Since today’s time-crunched doctors may not have extra minutes to inform you of all the possible side effects and contraindications of your medications, you must assume some of this responsibility. Talk to your pharmacist or take the initiative to read all the materials given to you about your medication. Again, take responsibility for what medicines go into your mouth.

5.  The days of the authoritative physician and the passive patient are gone. Much of the burden of making sure you get quality care has shifted to YOU, the patient.

WELLNESS TIP: What are you going to eat this weekend?

May 5th, 2009

02A10H3SHave you ever watched what you are putting in your grocery cart?  I mean really, have you ever stopped and noticed what choices you are making for you and your family when it comes to eating every day?  I was asked to take another look at my grocery cart years ago, and I was surprised at the number of “processed” foods I casually put in my cart.

Here are a few suggestions I heard years ago to help you find the health you are searching for when it comes to food choices.

1.  Always shop on the outside aisles of the grocery store., i.e. this is where you will find the fresh fruits and veggies, the fresh meats, the whole grain breads, the dairy (if you are not allergic to dairy). Have you noticed that the inside aisles are mainly “processed” – meaning in a box or can.  Remember there are many additives in those boxes that aren’t healthy for you.  If it’s not fresh, then really it is dead nutrition.

2.  Choose to eat 80% fresh or outside aisles.  The other 20% for me are those items I need in the inside aisles.

3.  Look at the extra products they have tempting you as you stand in the check-out line.   Look at the candy bars and ask yourself, is this really worth it?  Will this create an imbalance in my blood sugars?  Is the flavor of that candy worth the cost of how it affects my body?

4.  What drinks did you buy?  Are they loaded with sugars?  Do you realize that drinks don’t have to sit in your stomach 3-4 hours to digest?  They hit your stomach in seconds after swallowing, which then hits the blood stream shortly thereafter.  Your pancreas secretes insulin to calm down all that sugar.  If you are insulin resistant, diabetic or even hypoglycemic, you will pay the price of that sugared drink.

Again, be aware of what you are eating and what you are feeding the family.

MEDICAL TIP:  ” K48-PLUS can reduce the risks of depression.

April 30th, 2009

02A10MEDMany times when we get too stressed we can become depressed as well.  In countries where fish consumption is high, it has been observed that depression rates are lower than in countries where fish consumption is low.  In 1999 two studies confirmed that an important relationship exists between omega 3 fatty acids and mental health.

Psychiatry Research published findings that showed depressed subjects appear to have a fatty acid imbalance in their system.  The research suggested that depression could be overcome with omega-3 supplementation.  When you consider the powerful need to have Omega-3 in the body, consider the fact that our K48-PLUS Premium Omega 3 might be the answer to assisting your depression in a natural way without having to take those prescription medications that might be causing negative side effects that are harmful to your body.  Don’t worry, be happy, take your K48-PLUS every day and find the joys in life again!

WELLNESS TIP:  Got Stress? 

April 30th, 2009

02A11EFG

Got Stress?  It’s gonna get you if you don’t watch out!

Stress is the body’s response to a potential threat.  When we become stressed, our muscles become tense. Our breath, our pulse rate and even our blood pressure can increase as the body demands more oxygen and blood for the muscles.  Basically, the stressed body is in “charge” mode.  Yet, when most of us feel stressed, we are either at work, in traffic or at home, and we don’t suddenly get up to run or flee.  Instead we stay idle and feel pressured, worried, and uncomfortable, while our body might be screaming… “fight or flight”, and then we don’t know what to do.

Here are a few suggestions.  1.  Relax your body and find a place for peace in your life.  That place may be in your backyard or maybe in a quiet room, or at the nearby park.  2.  Concentrate on your breathing.  Focus on its pattern of taking in and releasing of air.  This is helpful for relaxation and is a way to create a more tranquil state within your body.  Focus on matching equal breaths in and out.  When you release the breath, think of “letting go.”  These are a few ideas that might help you calm your mind and help you breathe again!
