A little exercise can make a lot of difference!

For as long as I can remember I have been playing soccer. With that came a lot of running. I always hated going on a four or five mile run before a practice. Ask most athletes and I’m sure they’ll agree; conditioning is the worst part of training.
For a while, you couldn’t have paid me to go out running; I hated it. It wasn’t until high school was over and I hung up the cleats that I started to really appreciate a good run. Then one day, playing a game of pickup basketball, I realized just how out of shape I was. I was out of breath from just a few trips up and down the court. The freshman fifteen is no joke, but it isn’t a life sentence either! I began to get back on the road for runs. Now I hate the feeling of NOT going on a run.
For me, and many other runners I’m sure, running is as close to meditation as I can get. There is an old Zen saying that I love. “Everyone should sit in meditation for 20 minutes a day, unless you’re too busy; then you should sit for an hour”. This saying holds true for exercise as well. Not having time isn’t an excuse for ignoring physical fitness. Little adjustments to your daily routine can contribute to the recommended 30 minutes of exercise a day.
I’m not saying everybody should run for miles and miles on end every day, (I’m 20 and training for a marathon), but everybody can do something to increase their daily physical output that doesn’t require an exercise facility; you may not even have to leave your work. You know that thing that’s always next to the elevator, kind of looks like a broken escalator? Yeah, those are stairs.

• A brief session of stair climbing does more good for you than walking or running for the same amount of time because you have to work against the force of gravity.
• According to a study done at Harvard University, if you can fit in 8 flights of stairs a day you could reduce your death rate by 32%.
• While climbing stairs, you burn an average of 10 calories a minute. That’s 7 times more than standing awkwardly with strangers in an elevator listening to bad music.
• Even two flights of stairs a day can lead to 6lb weight loss over the course of a year.

Trying to add a little extra physical output to your daily routine doesn’t mean hitting the gym for 2 hours a day. Adding even 10 minutes of walking can drastically improve your overall health. Get a pedometer and aim for 10,000 steps a day.

• Whether you’re at the mall, school, work or movies, park in the back of the lot rather than driving around the parking lot looking for that perfect spot. It’s a simple but effective strategy. It adds a few extra seconds to your trip, but can help add few years to your life.
• Kill two birds with one stone and take a “walking meeting”. If you know that it will take just five minutes to explain a project or idea to a coworker, walk around the building while doing it to add some calorie burn.

Just in case you’re thinking that you’re “too old” to get back into shape, I’ll leave you with the story of 67 year old Larry Macon. He’s a full time trial attorney in San Antonio, Texas. He has run over 825 marathons, with 113 in one year. Did I mention he’s 67? Check him out HERE.
Don’t forget Dr. Wallach’s mantra, “Exercise without supplementation is suicide.” Make sure you always have some Rebound FX On-The-Go Pouches to fuel even the smallest of workouts!

Is there a light at the end of the diabetes tunnel?

Despite all that the nation is doing to promote healthy lifestyles and all the efforts going into preventative health, it was troubling to read this morning on CNN Health that the number of those living with type 1 or type 2 diabetes rose from 17.5 million in 2007 to 22.3 million in 2012. During the last couple of years, we have seen an upward trend in many people making healthy lifestyle changes, but this begs the question, are we doing enough?
The total cost of those diagnosed with diabetes in the United States in 2012 was $245 Billion up 41% from 2007. This cost, according to Dr. John Anderson, president of medicine and science of the American Diabetes Association, isn’t due to rise in health costs, but simply due to the sheer number of Americans living with diabetes and he doesn’t know of any other disease increasing that significantly. Additionally, 23% of total US healthcare costs are attributed to diabetes, that’s about 1 in 5 healthcare dollars.
The high costs and the rise of those newly diagnosed with diabetes are due to many factors. One is aging. The risk of developing diabetes gets higher as you get older. Another is an on-going problem in the US, with excess weight and obesity. Genetics also play a part in the development of diabetes, especially in African Americans, American Indians, and Asian Americans. Still, there is much research being done to find treatments to reduce and/or prevent the prevalence of this disease.
Recently, the Molecular Nutrition & Food Research journal published a study on the use of Cocoa to help manage diabetes. The research found that a diet rich epicatechin, a main flavanol in cocoa which is abundant in dark chocolate, improved insulin pathways and receptors, helping in the management of diabetes. This study also noted that current medications to maintain long-term glycemic control in many people with diabetes were inadequate and the use of cocoa for treatment could be the answer.
Preventing terrible, sometimes deadly, diseases such as diabetes can only be done by living a healthy lifestyle. But as research has shown, consuming foods such as dark chocolate may also help. Youngevity offers several Healthy Chocolate choices such as CocoGevity Plus, Triple Treat or Triple Truffle. CocoGevity Plus combines smooth and velvety rich dark chocolate with exotic fruits and botanicals to deliver powerful bioactive nutrients which may support heart health, immune function, and many other aspects of health. There are many benefits to consuming dark chocolate; helping with diabetes is just another one.
So, the lesson here is to eat more dark chocolate! Who doesn’t love hearing that advice?

Happy National Heart Health month!

Happy National Heart Health month! Heart health, along with cardiovascular disease, has become a huge problem in the world of health and wellness. With the United States having the highest obesity rates in the world, heart and cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in the U.S. According to the American Heart Association, CVD takes the lives of more than 2,150 Americans each day; heart related deaths more than cancer, car accidents, stroke, and Alzheimer’s disease. That’s one death every 40 seconds. Heart disease is the number one killer of American women, causing one in every three deaths per year…one every minute!
There’s never been a better time to start creating healthy lifestyle and diet habits than now. The best way to support heart health begins by living a healthy lifestyle. It’s time to quit smoking, cut out processed foods from your diet, and exercise; take a walk, go for a bike ride, anything to get your heart rate up! The benefits from a heart-friendly lifestyle go much further than heart health. When you’re body is healthy, your mind is healthy. Unhealthy habits clog up your thought process, make you feel lethargic all day, and have a lasting negative effect on your mood.
An estimated 78 million U.S. adults are hypertensive. There are so many stressors we interact with on a daily basis, and they take a toll; reduced sleep, anxiety, random aches and pains throughout the day. Top it off with an unhealthy heart, and you have a recipe for cardiovascular disease. A good cathartic release can go a long way. Adding even small amounts of exercise to your daily routine is a great way to blow off some steam and can drastically reduce stress.
Paired with healthy eating and regular exercise, adding natural supplements into your diet can provide your body with the nutritional building blocks that you just can’t get through diet alone. Youngevity offers Ultimate™ Cardio Fx™. Featuring garlic, gingko, hawthorn berry, CoQ10 and more, Ultimate™ Cardio Fx™ is an excellent choice for people with active lifestyles or who may be concerned about their cardiovascular health.
Youngevity also offers the Healthy Brain and Heart Pak™. This bundle is specifically formulated to support and promote healthy brain and cardiovascular function. Each pack provides a broad spectrum of foundational nutrition including Beyond Tangy Tangerine® – 420g canister, EFA PLUS™- 90 capsules, Osteo Fx Plus™ – 32 oz, Ultimate EFA and Selenium. Selenium is an important antioxidant shown to protect against cell-damaging free radicals. It provides selenium, vitamins and other trace minerals and nutrients to support good heart health.
A.J Reb Materi has said that “So many people spend their health gaining wealth, and then have to spend their wealth to regain their health”, and when it comes to heart care this can’t be any more true. 17% of all money put towards health care in the U.S. goes towards cardiovascular care, that’s 273 billion dollars a year. Taking care of your body isn’t just physically smart, but fiscally as well.
The month of February is the perfect time to show your heart extra love!
Until next week,
Best Wishes for Ultimate Health and Majestic Dreams!
