* Anaerobic exercise, better than aerobic exercise

Yep, you read right. In truth, anaerobic exercise {weight lifting, flexibility, movements, Yoga, Pilates, and many others) can lend all of the benefits that aerobics are known to lend, like better coronary and lung performance.

Furthermore, it keeps your body strong, straight, performing and beautiful. What more can you want in a workout?

Well then, why do so many conditioning enthusiasts minimize anaerobics? For one, ignorance concerning its importance. Two, it is harder to do.

It's less difficult to simply plop oneself down on an exercycle and mindlessly pedal for an hour or so whilst grooving to your MP3 player.

Do your self a favor, ensure a mix of anaerobic exercise, focusing on key muscle groups for around 1/3 of your exercise session and see how much more you get out of a workout. You'll get more than the too many people at most conditioning centers.

* Water contamination & hexavalent chromium

The Environmental Working Group, not too long ago, put out a research study on the apparent rise of hexavalent chromium, a heavy metal, in our drinking water supply.

The major issue with hexavalent chromium? It damages key organs and is cancer causing. One answer is a good drinking water filter.

* Herbal remedy to encourage sleep

Pure black cherry fruit juice could boost your brain’s production of sleep inducing carbohydrates. Take 4 ounces just before bed.

Warm milk? Well, it may lend a placebo effect but the protein in the milk actually decreases serotonin, the substance which induces sleep.

Any surprise that the earth’s herbs aid sleep better than the output of another mammal?

* Foods that prevent ulcers

Ready? OK.

Pineapple, papaya, banana, red pepper, rhubarb, garlic, plantain, just to name a few.

Yep, real foods, from the earth, as opposed to “Frankenfoods,” lend so many added benefits to us which the research community is still trying to keep up with them.

Some time in the future, as the storehouse on information with regards to the worth of natural herbs, vegetation, seed products, nuts and many others, mounts, I envision a harried researcher going on some mountaintop and bellowing, “Just eat real foods!”

And then you’ll walk out of McWendy’sKing, go to a produce store and get some broccoli and legumes.

* Supplemental glucomannan to reduce weight

A dietary supplement, glucomannan, assists fat loss. What’s glucomannan & how does it help with reduce weight?

Well, glucomannan is a soluble fiber that is derived from the root of the konjac plant. Indeed, it is an herb. Little wonder that an all natural herb derivative can have health advantages.

The fiber in glucomannan expands once combined with fluids which makes you feel quite full, helping stave off hunger & slow insulin release (which promotes fat burning). Take approximately 60 minutes just before meals for best results.

* Supplemental vitamin D, once again

We have been over the value of vitamin D, particularly for us as we age and for the duration of the wintertime season.

Now a new piece of research indicates that vitamin D can prevent bronchial asthma attacks in kids and teens.

Adequate vitamin D is probably important for everyone at all times. If you are lucky enough to get 20 minutes of sun exposure over most of your body, every day, great. If not, supplement with D.
