Spirulina - Protection From Degenerative Brain Conditions September 15, 2011 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Greetings Friends of Bio-Alternatives,
Neurodegenerative diseases are one of the fastest growing areas of health concerns for today's health practitioners; for example, there are no known cures for Alzheimer's or senility, both of which are becoming prevalent as the world's population ages. Fortunately, Spirulina has shown great promise as potential aid in supporting cognitive health. Dr. Paula Bickford of the University of South Florida is one of the most respected researchers on age-related neurological issues. She has held a variety of leadership positions in her field, and now serves as President of the American Society for Neural Therapy and Repair. Dr. Bickford had been responsible for a great deal of the research showing health benefits for blueberries, which subsequently led to a huge increase in blueberry consumption. But over the last few years, Dr. Bickford has turned her sights to Spirulina as a potent neuroprotective agent. In a series of four rodent studies, Dr. Bickford found that Spirulina:
The greatest enemy of value is rejection your not good enough, your not tall enough, your not preatty enough, your not big enough, your not rich enough, your not talented enough. Don't get down on yourself don't sink into self pitty you are extremely valuable priceless in the eyes of the one that created you. GOD loves and cares for you, though the world may turn on you blood is not always thicker than water. So wipe off the stain of rejection lift your head up roll your shoulders back and walk tall.
By: Louis Bryant my word for the day, hope it will change your day and life. - Look, are you a suckling calf? Name one creature on earth that uses milk after it's weaned. Man's the only one. And man's the only one who lives out only half his life span. A cow has four stomachs. You don't. You can't handle whole milk.
- If you want to change somebody, don't preach to him. Set an example and shut up. - Scales lie! You lose thirty pounds of muscle and you gain thirty pounds of fat and you weigh the same, right? Take that tape measure out. That won't lie. Your waistline is your lifeline. It should be the same as it was when you were a young person. - The guy who's most impressed me is Paul C. Bragg. He completely saved my life. When I was a kid, I was addicted to sugar. I was a skinny kid with pimples and boils. Used to eat ice cream by the quart. I had blinding headaches. I tried to commit suicide. And then one day, my life changed. Bragg was a nutritionist. My mother and I were a little late getting to his lecture. The place was packed, and so we started to leave. But Bragg said, "We don't turn anybody away here. Ushers, bring two seats. Put those two up on the stage." It was the most humiliating moment. There I was, up on stage. I was so ashamed of the way I looked; I didn't want people to see me. Little did I know they had problems, too. And Bragg said, "It doesn't matter what your age is, what your physical condition is. If you obey nature's laws, you can be born again." From that moment on, I completely changed my diet, began to exercise, and went on to become captain of the football team. And do you know something? Every time I get ready to lecture, I think, If I can just help one person like I was helped... - Show me the guy who doesn't get nervous in front of a crowd and I'll show you a lousy speaker. - What I do isn't about money. Can you put a price on a human life? This is my favorite one that why it is in red bold. - Any stupid person can die. Dying's easy. Living's a pain in the butt. - You learn as you go. When I first went on television in 1951, I pulled out a loaf of Langendorf's white bread, squeezed it into a ball, and threw it down -- boom. "That's what it does when it hits your stomach!" I said. Only problem was that Langendorf's was one of the network's sponsors! Oh, jeez, the phone calls. That's the last time I ever showed a label. Jack Lalanne When protein is metabolized, the nitrogen is released and flushed out by the kidneys. Comparing nitrogen in (protein intake) with nitrogen out (in urine) is the standard method of determining whether a person is getting the right amount of protein. For adults, nitrogen-in should match nitrogen-out. If you are losing less nitrogen than you are consuming in food, you are retaining protein. Retaining protein is normal for kids who are growing or for someone who is building muscle through strength training. But, losing more nitrogen than you consume means protein-rich tissue (mostly muscle), is breaking down. There are many potential causes for this, such as illness, stress, or chronic inactivity. The current recommendation for protein intake for healthy adults is 0.8 g protein per kilogram of body weight per day. This number was determined using studies on healthy young adults. But consider that body composition changes as people get older.
Once adults pass the physical prime of their teens and 20's, they lose an average of 10 ounces of lean body mass a year. This is mostly in the form of muscle tissue. Few people actually lose 10 ounces of weight a year. Instead, most gain about a pound a year, so the loss of lean tissue is masked. Another way to look at this is the average person gains about 1 pound and 10 ounces of body fat per year. This phenomenon, called sarcopenia, is derived from Greek words for "vanishing flesh." This change in body composition contributes to impaired wound healing, loss of skin elasticity, and an inability to fight infection. Louis Bryant - Reduces the risk of dying prematurely.

Never just begin to train. Approach it. Prepare the body for what is to follow. Don't allow yourself to be goaded into contests or rushed into training before the body is properly warmed up. If it's cold weather, dress warmly and warm up longer. Don't warm up by lifting weights. Start with calisthenics for around 10 minutes and get the oxygen enriched blood coursing through your boby.
It kill's to see so many over weight people in the world, well not even going as far the world. Just blocks from where I live 4 out 6 people are very much over weight I see it everywhere, in the stores, in the movie theaters. I think it's crazy to see fat people waiting on line to get something to eat, and eating on line while there waiting it's so sad.
By Louis Bryant Becoming the Right Fitness Trainer is easy if you follow this simple five-step process.
I have seen it many times in the industry,where you have the over weight trainer not a good reflection, or motivator. by: Louis Bryant Step No. 1: Begin by knowing your clients' goals. “What do they (not you) want to accomplish/change about their body or current lifestyle?“ Listen a lot and let them talk! I hear most everything I need to know by keeping my mouth shut often. In a long term client-trainer relationship your knowledge base will reveal itself glaringly. If you think the same exercises with the same weight and reps as last week will work, just watch your client move on quickly. Any true fitness professional should possess confidence, knowledge, variety and be supportive of all clients while telling them the fitness truth. If their body fat is 30%, tell them that and how to reduce it. If you as a Fitness Trainer are overweight, dress poorly or are not well groomed, most potential clients will see that as a reflection of how you view your fitness program. And if you think shouting at clients is appreciated, let me pop that bubble here: It is not -- especially by older clients, who make up most of my business currently. If you're not attracting some older clients, let me assure you that you are missing a stable, reliable, and continuing source of repeat income. These folks have most of the disposable income in America and want quality from you. Be the professional Fitness Trainer that motivates, encourages and pushes clients gently so that they hardly realize you just got them do their all-time max effort! Be trustworthy! I currently train a 94-year old “superstar“ named Ms. Agnes. We do balance drills, weights and even Muy Thai punches seated. She has lost the cane she came with three months ago! Personal Trainer means just that! Step No. 2: Know what questions to ask and what to look for initially. Get your waivers signed and baseline measurements done. Talk about any/all restrictions. If you don't know what a laminectomy is or where C5 is, look it up! If your client wants to be a bodybuilder or power lifter, I hope you have contest experience. Don't say anything you can't prove later. If the client's goal is over-all fitness and well being, as it is with most of my older clients, know how and when to have them stretch, watch his or her face and listen to the breathing. Know how to use the Karvonen Formula to figure baseline RHR and MHR, then give them the numbers. This will get you major points usually. If you don't know what I mean, here it is: “The Karvonen Formula is a medically derived formula to calculate important numbers for your cardiovascular workout program.“ I carry that formula taped inside my appointment book 1 / 3 Are You the "Right" Personal Trainer? Written by Bill McGinnis, MFT Step No. 3: Mention the NCCA agencies you are certified with and why that is important. I personally have three of the top five. Either gain their confidence with your own or watch them disappear. My clients are happy to know “these organizations carry the NCCA, National Commission for Certifying Agencies, stamp of approval for having integrity in their testing procedures and are very knowledgeable in content. They are monitored by state authorities with strict guidelines for granting anyone a Fitness Trainer certification.“ Mention your “CEC's“ also and explain whey they're important. (CEC's are continuing education courses required to keep the aforementioned top five certifications.) Wow... I hope you already knew that. Step No. 4: Be the “busy“ trainer in your gym? I train around 125 sessions per month in the Alumni Field House at the University of Texas Medical Branch. Affiliate yourself into the very best “fitness facility“ in your area. When you're not actually busy, talk to someone you don't know! I have gained dozens of new clients by smiling and saying “How are you today?“ Easy right? I see many trainers that won't smile or talk to anyone -- several such trainers I have personally dismissed while a Fitness Manager. Offer a short introductory session if you're not fully booked. I have given many during my career. This has turned into thousands of dollars income for me with repeat business. Today, I'm fully booked training over 125 sessions per month with people on a waiting list. Bet me this being friendly stuff doesn't work. If you'd rather be just average and not busy that's your business. If you want to be “the best “ -- that's my business. Part of my current specialty is training other trainers who have no imagination and little confidence. Step No. 5: Do you have a web site, a business card or T-shirts with your phone number or name? The very best Fitness Trainers I know, including myself, have all and are proud to share their information with anyone. I use any resource to promote all possibilities for growth in my business, including education. Do you want to separate yourself from your peers? Become a Master Fitness Trainer. This is one of the very best certifications I have ever gotten. It makes a huge difference if you want to write, speak, or be known as a stand out professional member of our Fitness Industry. Master Fitness Trainers are rare and can charge more. This process is not easy, so be prepared to study and know your stuff! This should go without saying, but I'll say it anyway: Do unacceptable!not talk on your cell, send texts, take your eyes off clients during movements or do anything looking absurd. All are absolutely Written by Bill McGinnis, MFT Number 1.Whole grain roll with sliced turkey breast, tomato and low-fat cheese
