How to Boost (or weaken) Your Immune System

Posted on May 12, 2012 by admin

Summer is coming! You’re likely planning trips to some great destinations, family gatherings, weddings and more.

Imagine for a moment, how that vacation could be improved by being in great health, or ruined if you became ill and were confined to the inside of a vacation cottage, hotel, cruise ship cabin or…worst scenario…a small tent!!? Even if you’re in perfect health, how will it affect your vacation if your partner or child is sick and cabin-bound? What if you were sick on your wedding day…or the wedding day of your child or best friend?
This week’s feature article will help you and your family have more good health days and fewer sick days during your vacations this Summer. The key is strengthening your immune system.
How to Boost (or weaken) Your Immune System
Adequately feeding your immune system boosts its fighting power. Here are the top eight nutrients to add to your family’s diet to help avoid a summer vacation ruined by illness this year! Following the immune system boosters, read on to see 4 immune system weakeners.

Top 8 Immune System Boosters

1) Vitamin C:

Vitamin C tops the list of immune boosters for many reasons. Vitamin C increases the production of infection-fighting white blood cells and antibodies and increases levels of interferon, the antibody that coats cell surfaces, preventing the entry of viruses. Vitamin C reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease by raising levels of HDL (good) cholesterol while lowering blood pressure and interfering with the process by which fat is converted to plaque in the arteries. As an added perk, persons whose diets are higher in vitamin C have lower rates of colon, prostate, and breast cancer. If you take vitamin C supplements, it’s best to space them throughout the day rather than take one large dose, most of which may end up being excreted in the urine.

Here are the  “Top Ten Fruits” for fiber and vitamin C:

  • Avocado
  • Papaya
  • Guava
  • Cantaloupe
  • Orange
  • Apricots (dried, unsulfured)
  • Mango
  • Strawberries (organic)
  • Kiwi
  • Grapefruit (pink or red)

2) Vitamin E:
Vitamin E stimulates the production of natural killer cells, those that seek out and destroy germs and cancer cells. Vitamin E enhances the production of B-cells, the immune cells that produce antibodies that destroy bacteria.

3) Carotenoids:

Beta carotene increases the number of infection-fighting cells, natural killer cells, and helper T-cells, as well as being a powerful antioxidant that mops up excess free radicals that accelerate aging.

4) Bioflavenoids:

A group of phytonutrients called bioflavenoids aids the immune system by protecting the cells of the body against environmental pollutants. A diet that contains a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, at least six servings per day, will help you get the bioflavenoids needed to help your immune system work in top form.

5) Zinc:

This valuable mineral increases the production of white blood cells that fight infection and helps them fight more aggressively. It also increases killer cells that fight against cancer and helps white cells release more antibodies. Zinc supplements have been shown to slow the growth of cancer.

6) Garlic:

This powerful immune booster stimulates the multiplication of infection-fighting white cells, boosts natural killer cell activity, and increases the efficiency of antibody production.

7) Selenium:

This mineral increases natural killer cells and mobilizes cancer-fighting cells. Best food sources of selenium are tuna, red snapper, lobster, shrimp, whole grains, vegetables (depending on the selenium content of the soil they’re grown in), brown rice, egg yolks, cottage cheese, chicken (white meat), sunflower seeds, garlic, Brazil nuts, and lamb chops.

8) Omega-3 fatty acids:

A study found that children taking a half teaspoon of flax oil a day experienced fewer and less severe respiratory infections and fewer days of being absent from school. The omega 3 fatty acids in flax oil and fatty fish (such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel) act as immune boosters by increasing the activity of phagocytes, the white blood cells that eat up bacteria.

4 Habits that Weaken Your Immune System

Certain foods and environmental influences can keep the immune system from doing a good job. Watch out for these threats to your body’s defenses.

1) Overdosing on sugar:

Eating or drinking 100 grams (8 tbsp.) of sugar, the equivalent of about two cans of soda, can reduce the ability of white blood cells to kill germs by forty percent.

2) Excess alcohol:

Excessive alcohol intake can harm the body’s immune system in two ways. First, it produces an overall nutritional deficiency, depriving the body of valuable immune- boosting nutrients. Second, alcohol, like sugar, consumed in excess can reduce the ability of white cells to kill germs.

3) Food allergens:

Due to a genetic quirk, your immune system may recognize an otherwise harmless substance (such as milk) as a foreign invader and attack it, causing an allergic reaction. After many encounters with food allergens, the wall is damaged, enabling invaders and other potentially toxic substances in the food to get into the bloodstream and make the body feel miserable. This condition is known as the leaky gut syndrome.

4) Too much fat:

Obesity can lead to a depressed immune system. It can affect the ability of white blood cells to multiply, produce antibodies, and rush to the site of an infection.

Cognition Enhancement: 4 Advanced Muscle-Guidance Factors

Posted on May 12, 2012 by admin

How Good Is Your Muscle Guidance System?

No matter how much speed, endurance, flexibility, strength and agility you develop…it won’t help you succeed in sports or enjoy an active life unless you add four additional factors.

You won’t move very fast, your endurance will decrease, muscular flexibility won’t help, iron strength will get you nowhere, and agility will be impossible!

Without the proper guidance, your muscles are like a fine-tuned sports car speeding along the road without a driver!

Cognitex is formulated to take advantage of the latest developments and ingredients for cognitive health. The latest ingredient in the Cognitex formula is uridine-5′-monophosphate, a critical brain nutrient.
Uridine-5′-monophosphate (UMP) is a basic building block of RNA and DNA as well as of phosphatides such as phosphatidylcholine that are critical to optimal brain function and the health of neuronal cell membranes. Naturally found in the milk of nursing mothers, UMP is essential for the growth and development of infant brains. Animal studies suggest that dietary supplementation with UMP may increase brain acetylcholine and phosphatide levels, and enhance some cholinergic functions.
The Cognitex formula provides other critical extracts that support healthy brain function, such as blueberry standardized for both anthocyanins and pterostilbene.

Get Big the Easy Way by Actually Looking Forward to Drinking Your Protein – Every Time with MyoFusion™!

By ingesting quality whey proteins along, amino acid levels remain in the bloodstream for 4 hours -the first 2.5 to 3 hours of that at potent anti-catabolic, muscle-building levels. Add in egg albumin (the only rival to whey as the greatest bodybuilding protein in the minds of the sport’s elite) and milk protein isolate (80% casein /20% whey) for its “longer tail” ensuring blood amino acid levels remain high before the next anabolic blast of MyoFusion™ -and you’ve got the optimal condition for growing muscle the way the pros do.
Although there is certainly a plausible argument for ingesting very slow moving proteins before bed in order to maintain blood amino acid levels longer during sleeping hours, for the educated athletes, a hard hitting ultra-bioavailable utility protein for use from morning to night, day in and day out, nothing will grow you like MyoFusion™.
When going to every extreme to create the most effective competitor’s protein supplement in existence, you have to go to equal extremes when developing the flavor. In medical terms it is referred to as “compliance factor,” put simply, the better it tastes, the more you will use it. The superior flavor technology behind this superfood formula ensures that you will look forward to drinking MyoFusion™ every time.

Top 10 Tips to Healthier Joints

Posted on May 11, 2012 by admin

Finally! Summer is coming, the days are lengthening, more sun, warmer weather!! Naturally, you’re already getting out of the office, out of the house and walking, hiking, running, biking, playing softball, volleyball or your favorite team sport.

Your mind remembers what it’s like to be active. Your muscles and joints may have been relatively inactive for the past several months. This could be a recipe for trouble:
  1. Active mind gives sedentary joints the signal to suddenly spring into action.
  2. Sedentary joints try to obey, become strained, and you’re benched at the beginning of the season!

How to avoid this unfortunate scenario:

1) Avoid a pain in the neck.

Document holders attached to computer monitors and positioned at eye-level, along with hands-free telephone headsets, can reduce neck strain.
2) Ditch the high heels.
Unless you’re a fashion model, chances are you can live without high heels. Experts say a three-inch heel stresses your foot seven times more than a one-inch heel. In addition, heels put extra stress on your knees and may increase your risk of developing osteoarthritis.

3) Sit and stand.

Neither sitting nor standing on your feet all day is good for you. When possible, alternate between the two to prevent locking yourself in one position. If your job primarily involves sitting, take a break and stand up every 30 minutes or so.

4) Handle heavy loads.

To make heavy loads easier to handle, use your largest, strongest joints and muscles to take stress off smaller hand joints and to spread the load over large surface areas. When you lift or carry items, use the palms of both hands or use your arms instead of your hands. Hold items close to your body, which is less stressful for your joints. For joint safety, slide objects whenever possible rather than lift them.

5) Resolve to reduce.

Lose weight. You won’t just look better – you’ll feel better, too. Every extra pound you gain puts four times the stress on your knees. The flip side is that even a small amount of weight loss will give your knees relief. Research has shown that losing as little as 11 pounds may improve your joint health and cut your risk of osteoarthritis of the knee by 50 percent.

6) Turn off the tube.

Television not only keeps you sedentary, which slows your metabolism, it also makes you prone to overeating. Read a good book instead, or better yet, pop on those cross trainers and hit the road.

7) Hang out at the bar.

Eating the veggies typically found in a plain tossed salad from a salad bar – romaine and Bibb lettuces, broccoli, spinach, kale or parsley – can lessen the amount of bone loss that occurs with age, research says, thanks to their high calcium count. But remember to go easy on the dressing.

8) Be supplement savvy.

Glucosamine, a supplement made from the shells of crab, lobster and shrimp, has been shown to ease joint pain and stiffness, particularly in people with osteoarthritis of the knee. Some studies suggest that it may contribute to cartilage repair.

9) Throw some fish on the grill.

Omega-3 fatty acids, found in cold-water fish, such as salmon and mackerel, can help keep your joints healthy. In fact, studies show omega-3s can reduce the pain and inflammation of stiff joints in people with arthritis. Because you probably don’t have time to grill fish every night, consider supplementing your diet with fish oil capsules.

10) Curtail your caffeine intake.

While you may need that extra burst of energy in the morning, try and resist those second and third cups of coffee. Studies show that the extra caffeine can weaken your bones.

11) Lube Your Joints!!

Minerals and Longevity

Posted on May 11, 2012 by admin

How Can Minerals Help You Live Longer?

There would be no life without minerals!

Minerals participate in a multitude of bio-chemical processes necessary for the maintenance of our health. Nearly everything on earth is comprised of minerals. There would be no life without minerals! Minerals control millions of chemical and enzymatic processes which occur in the human body at all times. Vitamins are much less effective without minerals.

Vitamins, carbohydrates, proteins and lipids are all compounds of the chemical element known as carbon. Minerals from the earth are elements that are not carbon and which are not bound to carbon.
Mineral deficiency in the soil leads to mineral deficiency in our food.

The soil near the top eight feet of the earth, where our plants grow, is severally devoid of minerals compared to millions of years ago. When you test surface soil today, from anywhere in the world, you find no more than 20 minerals. When you test earth from a much deeper zone, or if you test volcanic ash, you find at least 84 minerals. This provides proof our surface soils are deficient in minerals. If soil is deficient in these vital organic molecules, our plants and foods will be deficient in these organic molecules.

Soil mineral content has been decreasing at an alarming rate.

The nutritional value of modern foods isn’t just declining, it’s collapsing. We are losing our minerals, the fundamental source and the basic building blocks of life. During the last 60 years, the level of iron, a vital mineral for good health, has dropped 55 percent in the average rump steak. During the same period magnesium plummeted by 21 percent and calcium was also significantly lower. In fact, every mineral, except the three used to fertilize today’s farmlands, was anywhere from 10 percent to 40 percent lower than 60 years ago.

Mineral deficiency leads to sickness and disease.

Dr. Linus Pauling, two-time Nobel Prize winner and father of Orthomolecular Medicine, stated, “You can trace every sickness, every disease and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.”
Every cell in your body must have minerals to live and function. Your brain cells and nervous system utilize minerals to deliver electrical signals to every part of your body. Vitamins, enzymes, hormones, the immune system and almost all biological activities need a wide variety and amount of minerals to work right. And the skeletal structure, the skull, bones and teeth, depend on an adequate mineral supply to stay strong.

Minerals promote longevity.

Dr. Alexis Carrel received a Nobel Prize for proving that a living cell would be immortal if it had sufficient amounts of nutrients in proper balance of all elements needed. He was able to keep a chicken heart alive in a regularly cleaned, nutrient-rich solution for 34 years. He proved that cells simply need proper nutrition and to have wastes and pollutants removed to live indefinitely in their life-supporting fluid.

Sometimes slower is better – especially when it comes to the rate of protein digestion. While rapid protein absorption is desirable immediately before or after exercise, delayed release is probably more beneficial throughout the remainder of the day.
Casein proteins are pH sensitive and gel in the acidic environment of the stomach. As a result, it can take more than twice as long for caseins to be broken down into their amino acid subcomponents than whey and other proteins. Because of their unique time-released qualities, caseins are aptly described as anti-catabolic or muscle-protecting proteins.

Incontinence: The Silent Epidemic

Posted on May 11, 2012 by admin

Overcoming A Silent Epidemic

Urinary incontinence is a psychological, social, and economic burden for millions of Americans. Affecting more than twice as many women as men, urinary incontinence is associated with loss of independence, decreased quality of life, decreased participation in activities, increased caregiver assistance, and increased costs of care.

An analysis of 21 studies revealed that up to 55% of older women and 34% of older men suffer from urinary incontinence. More than 13 million Americans are affected by urinary incontinence.

Quality of Life

Urinary incontinence negatively impacts quality of life. In a study evaluating 511 women, aged 30 to 59 years, that evaluated all types of urinary incontinence, 19% of women with UI reported avoiding one or more social activities. Women also reported abstaining from attending work (1%), movies (3.5%), sports (15.7%), visiting friends (2.7%), and shopping (3.1%). While incontinence is not a socially disabling condition, it has a significant impact on the daily lives of women due to embarrassment, frustration, anxiety, annoyance, depression, and fear of odor.

Coping Mechanisms

Coping mechanisms for hiding or managing urinary incontinence include:
  • Limiting daily travel to places and routes where locations of all the restrooms are known
  • Reducing fluid intake
  • Avoiding sexual intimacy
  • Wearing adult incontinence pads or diapers
  • Preferring to drive themselves everywhere they go, so they can control bathroom stops
  • Carrying extra clothes and diapers everywhere they go, in the event of a wetting accident
  • Wearing dark, often baggy clothing to hide wet spots and/or conceal adult diapers
  • Sitting on the aisle at the theater and on planes to have easier access to the bathroom

Treatments

Various treatments for SUI, include behavioral therapies, absorbent products, devices, magnetic and electrical stimulation techniques, surgical procedures, and pharmacotherapy. Each treatment has specific advantages and disadvantages. Nearly 200 different operations have been described in the literature, with cure rates ranging from 40% to 95%.

Surprisingly, there is a little-known, inexpensive, low risk, highly effective remedy for urinary incontinence!

You Are What You Digest, Not What You Eat!

Posted on May 11, 2012 by admin

How Digestive Enzymes End Inadequate Digestion

The Shocking Truth:

How does it feel to pay for something and NOT receive the full benefit? Much of the nutritional value of the food and health supplements you so carefully purchase could be wasted–literally go down the toilet–unless you employ the strategy in this weeks health tip.

Only What You Digest Delivers Value:

Regardless of the quality of food you consume, it does you no good until it is sufficiently broken down and absorbed by your body. Vegetables, salads, protein drinks–no good unless your body properly digests them.

What Causes Digestion to Work?

The answer is digestive enzymes, the powerhouse of digestion. Digestive enzymes break down the food we eat so it can be used as a source of nutrients and a source of energy. Every cell relies on the raw materials provided to the body by digestive enzymes. Digestive enzymes unlock the benefits of vitamins, minerals, proteins, and hormones and put them to work in the body.

A Healthy Diet That is Not So Healthy:

Even a seemingly “healthy” diet could literally be starving your body of the enzymes it needs to preserve your well-being, maintain optimum energy levels and help your live longer and illness-free.

Cooking Kills Enzymes:

Unfortunately, cooking any food at temperatures above about 116 degrees Fahrenheit kills all enzymes. All canned or bottled foods contain no enzymes because they are cooked before being processed. Most fresh-frozen vegetables also generally have no enzymes because they are usually dipped in hot water before freezing.

The Value of Raw Food:

Raw vegetables and fruits can be an excellent natural source of enzymes which will digest as much as 75% of the food itself without the help of enzymes secreted by your body.

Vegetables Picked “Green”, Or Irradiated Are Enzyme Deficient:

Unfortunately, raw vegetables contain no enzymes when they are picked “green” (often the case in supermarkets because they have to be transported over long distances). Enzymes can only develop when they ripen on the plant. Irradiating food, or treating it with preservatives can also kills enzymes.

The Double Damage of An Enzyme-Deficient Diet:

A diet lacking in enzymes can actually do double damage to your health!

1) An Enzyme-Deficient Diet Robs Your Vitality

First, the enzymes that exist naturally in your own body, the endogenous enzymes, are called upon by your vital organs to digest the food you eat, instead of doing the crucial job they were meant to do-providing energy, fighting disease and ensuring the smooth functioning of your cells. That can rob your of vitality, make you feel listless and lead to premature aging.

2) An Enzyme-Deficient Diet Can Slowly Poison You

Second, without enzymes, the food you eat goes partially undigested and will stay in your intestinal tract for months, where it can actually putrefy. This can lead to releases of the harmful bacteria that can literally start to poison your health and lead to far more serious problems. It has been estimated that 80% of all diseases start in the intestinal tract!
Ensure you give your body the digestive enzymes it needs to unlock the benefits of vitamins, minerals, proteins, and hormones and put them to work.

Enzymatic Therapy Naturalean with 7-KETO is a dietary supplement which combines 7-keto DHEA, a naturally occurring metabolite of DHEA (dehyroepiandrosterone), with seven other ingredients to support healthy thyroid function and metabolism. The combination has been clinically shown to enhance weight loss when used in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise program. After eight-weeks of supplementation, the Naturalean with 7-KETO group lost significantly more weight than the placebo group, and the weight loss was primarily due to a loss of body fat – not water weight or muscle tissue.

Naturalean with 7-KETO:

  • A clinically studied combination – Accelerates the loss of body fat, while maintaining muscle mass
  • Contains a safe form of DHEA – 7-keto DHEA does not convert to active testosterone and/or estrogen and has no known adverse effects
  • Naturalean with 7-KETO is not a stimulant, or appetite suppressant; does not raise heart rate, blood pressure, or cause problems with sleep
  • Supports healthy thyroid function and enhances metabolism

Ayurveda: How to Benefit from 5000 Years of Indian Health Wisdom

Posted on May 11, 2012 by admin

Ayurveda: Health System from Ancient India

One of the World’s Oldest Healing Systems:

Ayurveda is a traditional Indian health care system dating back approximately 5000 years. Its name comes from the combination of two Sanskrit words, ayus meaning “life” and veda meaning “knowledge.” It is roughly translated into the “science of life”. Ayurveda is one of the world’s oldest healing systems that have developed a rich pharmacopoeia of herbal medicine, a philosophy on healthy living, and that offer spiritual insight. It is suspected that it has even influenced the development of traditional Chinese medicine.

The goal of Ayurveda is to rarely, if ever, experience sickness:

Ayurveda is a preventative medicinal and healing system, meaning that it aims to keep the healthy person healthy and heal the sick person. Theoretically, if a person follows Ayurvedic practices correctly, he or she should rarely ever fall sick. If he or she does fall sick, Ayurveda has many natural solutions, predominantly food and herb based, to eliminate the cause of sickness.

Ayurveda: A holistic system, treating mind, body and spirit:

Ayurveda is a holistic system, meaning that it not only treats physical illness but also the psychological, emotional, and spiritual illnesses of a person. Ayurvedic knowledge recognizes that there are more than one aspect of the person (commonly known as bodies) that should be taken care of and that a person is not in full health until all the bodies (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual) are in balance. In essence, it heals the whole person rather.

Arjuna Bark – An Ayurvedic Medicine

The bark of the arjuna tree (Terminalia arjuna) has been used in traditional Ayurvedic herbalism for over three centuries to support a healthy heart.

Today, scientific research is confirming arjuna’s benefits. Arjuna has been found to have antioxidant properties similar to vitamin E, and to help maintain cholesterol levels already in the normal range, according to preliminary clinical studies. It has also been found to help maintain healthy phospholipid and triglyceride levels, according to animal research.
Modern science is also providing the knowledge that enables development of highly effective arjuna formulations.

This week, TommyK Vitamins is pleased to highlight this formulation:

What’s Inside?

This broad-range formula combines arjuna bark with additional botanicals, including salvia, hawthorn and guggul. Salvia is the most widely used herb in China for supporting healthy circulation. Hawthorn is the most widely used herb in North America and Europe for supporting a healthy heart. Research suggests that hawthorn increases coronary blood flow, displays antioxidant activity and supports normal heart contraction. Guggul is a traditional Ayurvedic botanical, shown in modern research to support cholesterol levels already in the normal range. Together these botanicals provide a comprehensive herbal approach for supporting a healthy heart.

Smooth Skin: Top 10 Tips

Posted on May 11, 2012 by admin

What are the Top 10 Natural Tips
for Smoother Skin?

Summer is coming, and others will soon be seeing a lot more of your skin. How would it feel to know that you’ll be showing off smoother, healthier, radiant, glowing skin? Here are our “Top 10 Natural Tips for Smoother Skin“, plus our top safe and effective natural  skin creams on sale so that you can get an immediate boost in your personal skin rejuvenation program.

Benefits:
  • Look Younger
  • Be more confident
  • Feel good about yourself
  • Confidence helps you have more fun with others
  • Enjoyable experiences can lead to great relationships

1. Know Your Skin Type

Knowing your skin type is very important for skin care, for instance if you do not know whether is your skin is dry or oily, you may end up using a product that has a damaging effect on your skin. If fact, most skin care products clearly specify the type of skin they are most suitable on.

2. Drink Lots of Water

Drinking adequate amounts of water is another important measure to keep your skin healthy and moist.

3. Cleanse Your Skin Regularly

Cleansing your skin regularly is another important skin care tip. Cleansing helps in getting rid of dirt and other harsh elements from your skin. Use lukewarm water for cleansing.

4. Be Gentle to Your Skin

Being gentle to your skin is also very important. Don’t scrub or exfoliate your skin too hard.

5. Keep your skin moist at all times.

This is probably the most important tip. Dry skin is the most unfavorable skin type one can ever have. Apply a moisturizer when the skin is still damp.

6. Quit Using Soap on Your Face

Avoiding using soap on your face is also a good tip. Soap should only be used on the body.

7. Protect Your Skin from the Sun

Using sunscreen lotions or moisturizers with inbuilt sunscreens is also important. Suns harmful UV radiations can cause a lot of diseases and brown spots. Therefore, this tip must be followed without fail.

8. Get Enough Exercise and Sleep

Exercising a bit and sleeping soundly too are necessary. This also keeps the entire body healthy and fit. It also helps in beating stress.

9. Promptly Treat Skin Problems

Treating skin dilemmas with gusto. You should never let your ailments develop but treat them at the first opportunity. Consulting a dermatologist is also not a bad idea.

10. Relax

Beating the stress. Stress is harmful for both your body and skin.

11. Treat Your Skin to a Top Quality, Natural Cream

Two of the most powerful antioxidants currently known for topical application are Astaxanthin, 500x more powerful than vitamin E in neutralizing free radicals, and Pycnogenol™, 50x more potent than vitamin E. Both help normalize skin, enhance the activity of defensive cells, smooth fine lines and wrinkles, and protect against the stresses of your daily environment.

So begin your glowing, radiant skin strategy now, at the beginning of Spring, by applying our “Top 10 Natural Tips for Smoother Skin“. You’ll experience the benefits throughout this Summer!

If exfoliation isn’t a regular part of your skin care regimen, it should be. Your skin’s dead, hardened outer layer not only worsens the appearance of wrinkles, age spots, scars and blemishes-it also gradually destroys skin health, clogging pores and preventing the release of natural oils that normally help preserve natural softness and luster as you age.
That’s why microdermabrasion is one of today’s most popular nonsurgical exfoliation procedures. Under the supervision of a certified dermatologist, a spray of microfine crystals continuously removed by vacuum scours away dead skin cells and restores your skin’s youthful glow.

Whether you’re a man or a woman, the visible effects of aging on your appearance are always the same. Skin tone eventually loses its luster. The firm, supple look of your younger years begins to fade. Face and neck become noticeably dry and wrinkled instead of refreshed and vibrant.
Now you can combat these changes with DNA Repair Cream by Cosmesis. An innovation in skin care, this formula features teprenone and caprylic acid, two key ingredients that help restore your skin’s youthful glow. Teprenone has a molecular structure similar to vitamin K, while caprylic acid occurs naturally in palm and coconut oils: topical ingredients dermatologists have relied on for years to help men and women enhance their skin’s appearance.

Vitamin D

Posted on May 11, 2012 by admin

Why Vitamin D is Vital to Your Heart Health

The Sun May No Longer Be Enough
Vitamin D is one of the most important nutrients for health and is produced in the body naturally through regular sun exposure. The skin produces approximately 10,000 IU of vitamin D when exposed to 20-30 minutes of summer sun. However, with the proliferation of sun block use, many are not being exposed to the UV rays that are necessary for natural vitamin D production in the skin.

Vitamin D deficiency has been found

to be linked directly to heart disease.

“D” Deficiency’s Link to Heart Disease
Researchers from Utah presented evidence linking vitamin D deficiency to heart disease at the American Heart Association’s (AHA) Scientific Conference in Orlando, Florida.

Vitamin D has a good reputation even in the worthy company of other vitamins, having been associated variously with cardiovascular health, strong bones, cognitive health, cancer protection and immune health.

Cardiovascular Benefits of Vitamin D

Scientists from the Heart Institute at Intermountain Medical Center in Salt Lake City now claim to have dug up stronger evidence supporting the cardiovascular benefits of vitamin D. They also claim to have more firmly established the link between a lack of the vitamin in the diet and heart disease.

Case Study:
For more than a year, the Intermountain Medical Center research team followed 27,686 people who were 50 years of age or older with no prior history of cardiovascular disease. *

The participants had their blood vitamin D levels tested during routine clinical care. They were divided into three groups based on their vitamin D levels – normal (over 30 nanograms per milliliter), low (15-30 ng/ml), or very low (less than 15 ng/ml). The scientist then followed them to see if they developed some form of heart disease.
Researchers found that people with very low levels of vitamin D were 77 percent more likely to die, 45 percent more likely to develop coronary artery disease, and 78 percent more likely to have a stroke than those with normal levels. They also found that participants with very low levels of vitamin D were twice as likely to suffer heart failure.
Supplementing your body with vitamin D3 may provide the following benefits:
  • Maintain healthy bone density
  • Promote efficient utilization of calcium by the body
  • Aid in healthy immune system function
  • Promote healthy cognitive function and mood
  • Plus many more nutritional benefits!

Can You Drink Enough Milk?
Adults striving to achieve optimum health and wellness who regularly avoid sunlight or use sun block are urged to supplement their body with 5,000 IU of vitamin D daily. To obtain this amount by drinking milk, you would need to drink 50 glasses each day!

Sleep Better Without Taking Drugs

Posted on May 11, 2012 by admin

How to Sleep Better Without Taking Drugs

When is the last time you had a really good night’s sleep? How did that affect your mental alertness the next day? Your emotional well-being? Your relationships? There’s nothing like a good night’s sleep to “reset” the body and mind after a stressful day.

Natural Sleep, without Drugs

During stressful times, more people turn to sleep drugs, which can lead to highly negative side-effects and addiction.
Fortunately, there’s a natural alternative. A small gland in your brain, the pineal gland, produces a natural, sleep substance called melatonin.

About Your Circadian Rhythm and Melatonin

Melatonin helps control your sleep and wake cycles (referred to as circadian cycles). When it is dark, your body produces more melatonin; when it is light, the production of melatonin drops. And so, your body maintains its circadian rhythm.

How Your Circadian Rhythm Gets Disrupted

But here’s the problem: If it’s dark during the day your body might produce more melatonin making you drowsy, or if you’re under bright lights late at night, your body produces less melatonin…and you have a sleepless night.  Jet lag, shift work, and poor vision can disrupt your natural melatonin supply and screw up an otherwise great night sleep.

As we age, our brains produce less melatonin, which can lead to increased sleepless nights.

Foods, Not a Good Melatonin Source

Now, it’s pretty impossible to eat foods that contain enough melatonin to shift you back into your natural sleep/wake cycle once travel, night life or age have thrown a wrench into it. There are only trace amounts of melatonin in meats, grains, fruits and vegetables.

Melatonin Easy to Supplement

Fortunately, you can supplement low melatonin levels and return to deep sleep nights that lead to bright, alert enjoyable days.

Melatonin is popular with our adult clients at TommyK Vitamins, and can help reduce insomnia, but that’s not all. In addition, it can help adults get off of sleep drugs, strengthen the immune system and aid in prevention and treatment of some kinds of cancer.

Benefits of Melatonin:

Fights insomnia:
One study of 334 people aged 55 and older found that sustained-release melatonin seemed to help people fall asleep faster, sleep better, be more alert in the morning, and improve quality of life in people with primary insomnia. Melatonin supplements may also help with sleep problems associated with menopause.
Benzodiazepine Withdrawal:
Some clinical research has found that melatonin may help elderly people with insomnia who are tapering off or stopping benzodiazepines such as diazepam (Valium), alprazolam (Xanax), or lorazepam (Ativan).
Strengthens the Immune System:
Melatonin has strong antioxidant effects. Preliminary evidence suggests that it may help strengthen the immune system.
Slows the Progression of Breast Cancer:
Laboratory experiments have found that adding melatonin to certain types of breast cancer cells slows their growth. Preliminary evidence also suggests that melatonin may strengthen the effects of some chemotherapy drugs used to treat breast cancer.
Blocks Prostate Cancer Cell Growth: In test tube studies, melatonin blocks the growth of prostate cancer cells. In one small-scale study, melatonin — combined with conventional medical treatment — improved survival rates in 9 out of 14 men with metastatic prostate cancer.
One caution.
Melatonin is a powerful supplement and should be taken only by adults, and not for long durations of time. If you’re experiencing persistent sleeplessness, there’s potentially a reason that has to do with diet, lifestyle or a larger health issue. Get to the root of the cause!
