A List of The Top 10 Superfoods

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 11:22:00 +0000

Wild Salmon
The wild caught salmon is a great source of omega 3 fatty acids, good quality protein, minerals and vitamins. The omega 3 fatty acids are known to prevent heart diseases, depression and the onset of dementia. Salmon is also a very good source of iron and is low in calories and saturated fats. The reason wild salmon is better than farm raised is that the feed and fish oils farmers give to their salmon contain chemicals which are determined by the Department of Health and Human Services as carcinogens. Of course the risks from these chemicals are far lesser than the benefits from eating salmon, so even if you have a farm raised one in your fridge don't throw it away.

Chia Seed
Chia seed is a super food first discovered by the Aztec to aid their warriors in long journeys. Thanks to the great nutritional value, a single tablespoon of it was enough to sustain a warrior for as long as an entire day! Chia seed is just amazing, it contains 6 times more calcium than milk, twice the antioxidants that you can find in blueberries, more omega 3 fatty acids than salmon and its a great source of fiber,complete protein and more than 27 vitamins. It includes almost every health benefit possible- better bone health, increased energy levels, better heart health, prevents cancer, diabetes and muscle tissue breakdown, anti-aging, prostate health, hydration maintenance for a longer period, prevents cravings, digestive health, reduced menopause symptoms and others. Its also very convenient, since its just a seed and has a rather neutral taste you can just throw a tablespoon on your breakfast

Acai Berries
Acai berries are one of the best sources of antioxidants known to mankind. Antioxidants fight the free radicals in the body, which are responsible for cell damage, aging and cancer. This means that among the benefits of Acai berries are cancer prevention and anti- aging. Oh and I almost forgot to mention these berries aid weight loss by boosting the metabolic rate. They also contain healthy fats, fiber, plant sterols, minerals and amino acids. Usually Acai berries are very hard to store so unless you are in Brazil, you will probably find them as a juice.

Barley Grass

Get ready for another amazing superfood! For some reason barley grass isn't very popular, but its nutritional value is out of this world. It contains 30 times more vitamin B1 and 11 times more calcium than cow milk, 5 times the iron in spinach and 6 times the beta carotene, and almost 7 times the vitamin C contained in oranges. Barley grass is also rich in antioxidants, fiber, protein and chlorophyl which gets rid of toxins stored in intestines. Its also naturally reach in minerals like copper, zinc, manganese and potassium. Some of its benefits include cellular repair and regeneration, anti- inflammatory contents, cancer prevention, bone and skin health, boosted metabolism, cardiovascular health, lower cholesterol, anti- aging.

Quinoa
Pronounced Keen-wah, this whole grain was regarded as sacred by the Incas, and for a good reason. It is rich in protein ( the complete one), iron, manganese, magnesium, copper, phosphorus and fiber. Quinoa is great for vegetarians who are concerned about their protein intake. This grain's benefits include maintaining the brain volume and function, strong bones, internal detoxification and a boost in energy levels.

Broccoli

Broccoli conatins high amounts of vitamin C, K, D and A, fiber, folic acid, indole alkaloids that stimulate an enzyme which prevents the creation of cancer, dietary fiber and a lot of minerals. A very interesting benefit for guys is that eating broccoli will help boost testosterone. Other benefits include boosting the immune system, strong bones, healthy eyes, cardiovascular health, prevents cravings and also broccoli can prevent birth defects if eaten during pregnancy.

Yogurt

Yogurt contains a so called friendly bacteria that help the digestion, the immune function and the intestines. It also contains a lot of calcium, potassium, magnesium, vitamin B2 and B12, fiber and protein. Some of the best benefits of yogurt are that it can prevent osteoporosis, reduce the risk of high blood pressure, helps the gut, prevents cravings by making you feel full. And by the way I'm very proud the say that Bulgaria ( my own country ) makes the best yogurt in the world!

Beans

Beans are a great low fat source for fiber, protein, carbs, magnesium and potassium. Thanks to the fiber they will prevent cravings and also cleanse your body form toxins. They are also rich in antioxidants and the small amounts of fats beans contain are omega 3- the good type of fats. Thanks to that and also the potassium and magnesium they will keep your heart healthy (especially soy beans).

Nuts

Nuts are an excellent source of protein, omega 3 fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants. Something else very important is that nuts help better the intake of some nutrients which makes them a great pair for the other superfoods on this list. Health benefits that nuts provide are lowering the cholesterol levels, healthy heart, higher energy levels, lower diabetes risk, lung cancer prevention, lower blood pressure and breast cancer prevention. Its important to know that the FDA doesn't include Brazil nuts, macadamias and cashews in the list of healthy nuts thanks to the higher amount of saturated fats they have. Also nuts are very high in calories so you need to limit your intake to about 1 ounce a day.

Avocado

Avocados are very rich on some key nutrients like Vitamin K, folate, potassium, vitamin E, lutein, magnesium, vitamin C and vitamin B6. Thanks to the lutein avocados lower the risk of eye and skin diseases. Avocados also have a lot of omega 3 fatty acids, which make them great for your hearth and cardiovascular health. Another benefit is making the immune system stronger thanks to the effects of vitamin C and vitamin B6. Other benefits provided form avocado are blood sugar regulations, cancer prevention and better absorption of some nutrients including carotenoids.

These is my list of top 10 superfoods. If you have any questions or if you would like to add something to the list please leave a comment or e-mail me at stancho1234@gmail.com

List of 10 foods you should avoid

Chia seed- the newest superfood

A list of foods that will help you gain weight

Chia Seed- The Newest Superfood

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 14:04:00 +0000

After recently getting huge media attention ( from Fox News to the Ophra Winfrey magazine ), Chia seed's popularity has been growing rapidly. It's incredible nutritional value, originally cultivated by the Aztec, ranks it right on top of every superfood list. What's so incredible about it? Here are a few fast facts:

It contains twice the omega-3-fatty acids that the Atlantic salmon does

Chia has 600% more iron than spinach

Chia seeds contain 6 times more calcium than milk

It contains 32% of your daily magnesium needs, which is more than broccoli does

In chia you can find twice the antioxidants you do in blueberries

Its a great source for soluble and insoluble fiber, which is extremely important for your digestion

A single serving contains 27+ vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, and amino acids

These are the raw numbers that stand behind the chia seed, but lets turn those numbers in to the benefits they carry with them, shall we?

Chia seeds aid weight loss- their great nutritional value and unique gelling action will keep you full for hours, and also they have the ability to block the absorption of extra calories.

They provide energy- can you believe that a single tablespoon was enough to sustain an Aztec warrior for a day? Chia seeds provide energy, stamina and endurance thanks to all of the vitamins, minerals, fibers and complete protein they contain. Another reason for having more energy troughout your day is that chia seeds balance your blood sugar.

Keeps your heart healthy- omega-3-fatty acids are known to protect you from heart diseases and inflammation such as arthritis. These acids are also good for lowering the bad cholesterol and increasing the good one.

Chia seeds add antioxidants to your diet- as already mentioned, chia seeds contain twice the antioxidants that blueberries contain. Antioxidants can prevent cancer, heart disease, muscle and tissue degeneration, diabetes and many other health problems.

Good for people with dibetes- Chia Seeds slow the conversion of carbs into sugar, help maintain and lower a healthy blood sugar level, which is very important for anyone with diabetes. Also, it has been shown to reduce cardiovascular risk factors in those people with well-managed type 2 diabetes.

Other chia seeds benefits include- better bone health, anti-aging, prostate health, hydration maintenance for a longer period, digestive health, reduced menopause symptoms and others

Chia's has a barley noticable nutty flavor. It can be mixed with juices, cereal, yogurt, or it can be added to puddings and baked goods like cakes, biscuits and bread. Another good thing about chia seeds is that they don't go rancid, and due to the high volume of antioxidants they can stay in room tempreture and be good to eat for as long as 2 years.

The recommended daily amount of chia seed is two doses of 20 grams each.

If you are wondering where to get chia seeds, I have something to recommend- Chia seeds from Digestive Science. There are a few reason I suggest this exact product:

its pesticide free

doesn't contain any caffein, gluten or cholesterole

no GMO

Asthma Treatment Guidelines

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Sat, 08 Oct 2011 01:01:00 +0000

Before looking a the asthma treatment guidelines I believe I should write down a few words on what exactly asthma is, what causes it and what are the symptoms. I'll try to keep it sh0rt.

Asthma is a chronic lung disease that causes a persons a airways to swollen. This makes it harder for air to reach and leave the lungs. It is believed that the factors that might be causing this disease are:

allergies
stress
atopy
airway hiperreactivity
exposure to cigarette smoke
genes
obesity
environmental factors like pollution, cold climate or high levels of humidity
undergoing a respiratory infection as a child
and being born with a Caesarean Section

The symptoms of asthma are wheezing, chronic cough, shortness of breath and chest tightness.

After some general information on asthma its time to get on to the treatment guidelines.

Basically there are 2 types of asthma treatment- long term control medications and quick relief medications.

The quick relief medications are used to stop the symptoms during an asthma attack. It can also be used, if your doctor recommends, before exercising. There are 3 popular medications of this type.

Anticholinergics- like other bronchodilators, it is used to acute bronchospasm by relaxing the airways. It can also decrease the mucus gland secretion and reduce the intrinsic vagal tone to the airways. A known side effect is mouth dryness. It is often used as an alternative to the beta2-agonists. A good anticholinegic is Atrovent.
Beta2-agonists- a very quick acting inhaled medication used to relax the bronchial smooth muscle and to increase in cyclic AMP producting functional antagonism of bronchocontriction, thus fighting the asthma symptoms in a rapid manner. A few of the known side effects include high blood sugar, shakiness, hypokalemia, increased lactic acid, increased heart rate and headache. Some of the popular beta2- agonists are Albuterol, Ventolin, Maxair, Xopenex and Proventil.
Oral and intravenous corticosteroids- Due to the serious side effects this type of medication should be used short term. It acts by reducing airway sensitivity and by blocking late reaction to allergen. It is recommended that the corticosteroids are not used for more than 10 days. The possible side effects are increased appetite, fluid retention, weight gain, mood alteration, hypertension,reversible changes in sugar metabolism, peptic ulcer, and rarely aseptic necrosis of femur.

The quick relief medications are effective in fighting asthma attacks and flare-ups but they cannot be relied on for a long term control on the symptoms. That's why long term control medications are a so important and are often called the cornerstone of asthma treatment. Instead of just fighting an attack when it occurs, these medications prevent it on a day by day basis. The most common are:

Inhaled croticosteroids- they are the most commonly prescribed and effective long term asthma medications. They have an anti-inflammatory effect and unlike the oral corticosteroids the risk of side effects is very small, which makes them safe for a long term use. Popular inhaled corticosteroids are Aerobid, Alvesco, Asmanex, Azmacort, Flovent, Pulmicort and Qvar.
Long acting beta agonists- this inhaled medication is known to open the airways and reduce the inflammation, however it is also known to cause severe asthma attacks and for that reason its recommended that it is taken in a combination with an inhaled corticosteroid. Long acting beta agonists are Serevent, Brovana, Foradil, Perforomist.
Leukotriene modifiers- first of all its important to know that these medications are linked to agitation, aggression, hallucinations, depression and suicidal thinking! Otherwise they are used to prevent asthma symptoms for up to 24 hours. Leukotriene modifiers are Accolate, Zyflo and Singulair.
Combination inhalers- Most commonly these medications include a long acting beta agonist and corticosteroids. They work by widening the airways ( the LABA's effect) and by decreasing and preventing airway inflammation. These medications are very convenient, but are also linked with severe asthma attacks. Some combination inhalers are Advair, Symbicort.

There is also a third, not so popular way to treat asthma. Its called homeopathy.

Homeopathy is a way of treating certain conditions by using small doses of remedies found in nature. The difference between homeopathy and herbal medicine is that homeopathy uses not only herbs but also minerals and other natural substances. Any mineral, plant or animal substance can be used as a remedy. The substance is diluted in liquid repeatedly. It may sound a bit... unusual but these very small amounts of remedies can act very strongly when used properly. Also, this dilution makes the remedies extremely safe.

Homeopathic treatment is the only system of medicine that actually tries to cure asthma instead of just controlling the symptoms. There are several substances that have a positive impact on any type of asthma:

Kali carbonicum
Ipecacuanha
Arsenicum album
Blatta orientalis
Phosphorus
Belladonna
and others

A homeopathic asthma treatment I recommend is Asthmamist. Its an all natural spray that contains all of the above ingredients and many more. You take two sprays under your tongue three times a day. Asthmamist is FDA approved and is also recorded in the Homeopathic Materia Medica. Also one more thing that I find impressive is that the company behind it is so confident in their product they offer a 90 day money back guarantee.

For more information on Asthmamist go to www.asthmamist.com

I believe I introduced you to the most important guidelines of asthma treatment and I hope this article will be satisfying. Please if you have any questions leave a comment or e-mail me at stancho1234@gmail.com

Irritable Bowel Syndrome- Symptoms, Causes and Treatment

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 17:38:00 +0000

Irritable Bowel Syndrome or IBS is a digestive disorder known for causing abdominal pain, bloating and discomfort. IBS is not a disease, its a functional disorder of the bowel.

Generally the irritable bowel syndrome is classified in 3 groups:

IBS-C which is constipation predominant
IBS-D which is diarrhea predominant
IBS-A which is abdominal pain predominant

Symptoms of the Irritable Bowel Syndrome

There are several IBS symptoms including

abdominal pain, diarrhea and constipation
chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, headache, backache
There are also psychiatric symptoms like anxiety and depression

What causes Irritable Bowel Syndrome

While the actual causes remain unclear, there are a two rather unproven theories for what causes IBS.

One of those theories blames stress. According to it the IBS disorder develops after a very stressful experience and in people who have lived in stress for a long period of time. As a backup the scientist explain that people who have been abused as children have IBS more often than other people.

The other hypotheses claims that the main reason for irritable bowel syndrome is caused by a gastrointestinal infection . It is thought that the risk of developing IBS increases six times after having this kind of an infection,

Irritable Bowel Syndrome Treatment

There is no medicine for the IBS mostly because the reasons for it are not yet clear. But there are a few things that can be done to partially treat the disorder.

The first thing you can do is make a diet out of the foods you should avoid and the ones you should eat. Foods to avoid are these that contain lactose, fructose and fructan. Alcohol, sodas and caffeinated drinks are also known to have a negative effect on the IBS symptoms.

Foods that you should include in your diet are white rice, brown rice, psyllium husk, oat bran, corn grits, pinto beans, kidney beans, broccoli, carrots, apples, peaches, oranges, tangerine and grapefruit. The reason these foods are good for people with irritable bowel syndrome is that they contain a lot of soluble fiber which is effective in fighting the symptoms of IBS.

Another way of making life with IBS easier is exercising. Regular exercising will help bowel movement and also reduce stress which is one of the reasons for the disorder. It is recommended that you exercise at least 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week.

One other treatment that has proven very effective in easing the irritable bowel syndrome is natural supplements. They usually contain all the fibers, minerals and nutrients you need and also some of them contain probiotics. Probiotics is the so called friendly bacteria that is used to balance the microflora in the gut for digestive balance. You can usually find probiotics as a separate supplement but as a combination with fibers and nutrients it is more effective. Such a combination is the Digestive Science IBS relief system. I recommend this exact product for numerous reasons:

It is a 3 step system - Step 1 consists of the CoBalance IBS Support daily supplement, of natural ingredients, enzymes, fibers and minerals providing a fast pain relief. Step 2 is when the probiotic supplement comes in to action. And step 3 is a nutrient and fiber supplement which is mixed with water and tastes like wild berries.
It contains the super food named chia- a seed that contains a lot of omega 3 fatty acids, antioxidants, fiber and other nutrients and minerals
It has a very nice 30 days trial offer and a 90 days money back guarantee which is great.

A List Of Foods That Will Help You Gain Weight

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Thu, 25 Dec 2008 09:23:00 +0000

For some of the guys out there its hard as hell to even gain a pound. Those men have a really fast metabolism that burns calories like its suppling energy for an army. Most people would kill to have such a metabolic rate, but for all the men that wish to gain muscle this is a nightmare. So I decided to help those guys with a small list of very nutritional foods that will help you gain weight, its up to you to make this weight to muscle mass.

Oatmeal

They are very nutritional and will surely help you gain weight, in fact oats are used to feed horses! The key is not to eat them like always - with milk. Eat the oats by itself so you can eat more!

Nuts

Nuts contain huge amounts of the best proteins you can find in mother nature.

Eggs

But of course don't drink them raw like Rocky!
They have a good amount of protein especially in the whites. But don't get too carried away, half a dozen eggs a day is enough!

Red meat

Red meat is good with its high amount of protein and iron. The iron is known for helping muscle gain by increasing the oxygen inflow to the muscles.

Olive oil

A great source for healthy fats and it can also bring out the best of the veggies by activating their antioxidants, so make sure you use it with your salads and whit whatever you can!

Protein drinks

Using gainers for those drinks is a good idea or at least protein powder. Add up some milk, peanut butter, oats, dried fruits and what ever high calorie stuff you have around you. Of course try to make it taste OK.

Soups

Do you know that lentil, black bean, split pea, barley or minestrone soups contain more carbs than chicken meat? Plus they are yummy.

Salmon

Fish foods are generally good for anyone thats trying to gain weight, but salmon is just incredible. It contains more calories than any other fish plus its jam packed with protein and the healthy omega 3 fatty acids. Make sure you have this one in your menu!

This is the list of mega nutritional foods, make sure you have them in your menu and of course make sure you eat as much as you can.

And if this isn't helping you, I would recommend trying some additional supplements like whey protein and weight gainers.

Weight gainers basically contain a good amount of proteins and carbs which are essential in order to gain weight. You have to drink a serving between meals, post workout and before going to bed. This way you will ensure good protein synthesis, muscle recovery and growth.

Whey protein on the other hand has a low carb formula, which promotes lean muscle growth. It will have slower results in the weight gaining department, but the body you develop will be a lot leaner. You just mix 2 scoopfuls of it with water or milk in a blander or a shaker and than enjoy its great taste and muscle growth benefits.

For both weight gainers and whey protein I would recommend the Muscle Advance products.

They have a great formula for a pretty nice price. I've used them for a while and definitely had great results!

Brain Fitness

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 09:25:00 +0000

Not many of you realize that your brain needs workouts just as your muscles. In order to have a strong and healthy brain you have to give it different tasks, most of which in the shape of games. Yes games just like sudoku, chess, crosswords etc. And just like in fitness, where different exercises work on different muscle groups , each game affects a different brain function. There are 4 basic functions:

Memory
Attention
Processing speed
Cognitive control

The hard part about brain fitness is to organize your workout so all 4 functions will get equal pressure, or how to emphasize on your leak points. To tell you the truth I can't help you here, its just too complex. The way I do it is trough a brain fitness program named Lumosity.

This program is created by some of the leading scientists in neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and bioinformatics from Stanford, UCSF, and other leading research institutions.

Lumosity is basically a computer based brain fitness program consisting of fun and engaging exercises and online games. It is based on the concept of neuroplasticity - the brain's ability to learn and physically adapt given appropriate stimuli.

It begins with a 30 day session. The first few cover all the 4 basic functions, then they are separated and you will make 5 sessions which are emphasizing on just 1, beginning with memory and ending with cognitive control.

One of the coolest extras to the program are all the graphics that chart your general progress named BPI-Brain Performance Index, your progress in any of the 4 functions ( according to this one, my worst function is processing speed- seems I'm kind of slow ;( ) and your progress at any of the the games.

I really enjoy this program and I can sure see and feel the progress. If you want to give it a try check out its home page at Lumosity.com

Does 5-HTP help Depression? Science Says Yes!!

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 22:10:00 +0000

With symptoms that range from feelings of hopelessness and sadness to physical manifestations such as headaches, fatigue, and pain, Major Depressive Disorder affects over 14 million adult Americans in any given year. The toll is vast; as indicated by the latest statistics provided by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), depression clocks in as the leading cause of disability in the US among individuals aged 15 to 44.

Despite the fact that over 147 million anti-depressant prescriptions were written by US doctors in 2004 alone, many people opt out. Whether a matter of tolerance, side-effects, or a simple dislike of ‘medicating’ with pharmaceuticals, many individuals suffering with depression are choosing natural supplementation over pharmaceutical medication. One such popular supplement is 5-HTP.

Derived from the seeds of Griffonia simplicifolia, a shrub which is native to West and Central Africa,5-HTP, or 5-Hydroxytryptophan, is a naturally-occurring amino acid, and a precursor to the neurotransmitter serotonin. Given its chemical composition, 5-HTP has been shown to increase serotonin levels, the deficit of which is believed to be the leading cause of depression.

Many clinical trials have supported the long-time belief that 5-HTP does, in fact, ease symptoms of depression. The first large-scale clinical trial, conducted in 1972, found that daily oral doses ranging from 50 to 300 mg resulted in significant improvement in 69 percent of study participants. The effects of treatment began to manifest within 2 weeks, and the side effects reported were minimal.

Several other trials have supported this inaugural study. One trial, designed to test the speed of onset when compared to standard antidepressant treatments found that, of the 59 patients with eight different types of depression, 32 patients showed significant improvement within 2 weeks. Standard anti-depressants typically take 4 or more weeks before effects are noted. In this study, 5-HTP was administered in dosages from 150 to 300 mg daily for 3 weeks. Another, similar study found that, after a 2 week treatment of 24 patients hospitalized for depression, 7 showed a marked improvement in symptoms. In addition, the researchers noted a 30 percent increase in 5-HTP levels, leading them to believe that supplementation with 5-HTP was, in fact, effective in raising serotonin levels.

In a 1991, double-blind, multi-center study, conducted to compare the effects of 5-HTP treatment with those of standard SSRI treatments, researchers found that up to week 6 of treatment, patients reported a nearly equivocal efficacy response with a 50 percent improvement. At the end of the study, however, researchers found that the percentage was slightly greater for patients treated with 5-HTP. Apparently, 5-HTP was better tolerated and carried fewer side effects, than the anti-depressant Fluvoxamine.

In the end, I think we can safely assume that 5-HTP is a viable option for those suffering from depression. An added benefit: 5-HTP has also been shown to be an effective treatment for diabetes,migraines headaches, fibromyalgia, insomnia (therefore it can be found in many sleep aids, for instance- melatrol), and weight issues.

Acne Prevention

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Fri, 16 May 2008 14:00:00 +0000

Many people suffer from acne and its damaging social consequences. These people try everything to remove the problem, but they seem to miss the key point in acne treatment. The secret is in being proactive rather than reactive. Its much harder to treat the acne when its already on your face than to block it before it gets there. In order to prevent acne you should follow these simple tips:

Use facial cleansers!

One of the reasons for acne is the fact that dust and oil clog your pores. The most reasonable way to react to this is by cleansing. Its important that you don't use ordinary soap, as it doesn't help in clearing excessive oil, but actually causes an increase in oil production. This way not only that you don't prevent acne, but you are causing it.

The best substance you can use to cleanse your skin is salicylic acid. Look for a cleanser that contains at least 2%.

Such a cleanser is ClearPores.

Follow a diet!

There are 3 key rules in every acne prevention diet.

The first one is to eat protein high foods, it helps a lot in repairing the cells and in fighting aging. Make sure that fish, chicken without the skin, turkey breast, and egg whites are in your menu!
Rule number two says you should stop avoiding fats. They have an anti-inflammatory effect which is perfect for preventing acne. The best way to get those fats is by eating seafood- like tuna, salmon and mackerel which contain omega 3 fatty acids. Just don't get carried away, you don't want to be reading my post on the best ways to suppress your appetite.
The third one tells you to lower the intake of carbs and sugar. They cause inflammation, chemical changes in the body and the diminish of collagen, which is very bad for the skin.

Follow these simple rules, but make sure you don't get carried away. Everything should be done in a reasonable amount.

Use facial scrubs on a regular basis!

Their exfoliating effects help remove the dead cells from the surface of your skin, thus preventing the creation of acne. Facial scrubs will make your skin look brighter and more radiant because black heads will no longer be visible.

Use solutions that contain Benzoyl peroxide!

In order to prevent acne you need to use such a solution at least once a week. Benzoyl peroxide creates oxygen in the pores, this way it kills the acne bacteria. Salicylic acid cleansers and benzoyl peroxide are a powerful combination for preventing acne.

Such a benzoyl peroxide solution is Acnezine.

These are the best ways to prevent acne, but if you already have acne and you need a way to remove it, read this- The 2 Best Acne Treatment Products

What is Protein, And Why Do You Need It?

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 11:40:00 +0000

Protein, is made out of amino acids, which are linked together in chains. Amino acids are the principle means by which we get nitrogen -an essential element in your survival.

In order to build big and strong muscles you will need to achieve a positive protein balance. This means your body will have to make more protein than it will break. Of course, if you make less protein than your body breaks down ( negative protein balance), soon your muscles will become smaller and weaker.

How to measure protein balance?

Your protein balance can be estimated by measuring your nitrogen balance, since protein contains nitrogen. Having a positive nitrogen balance is generally taken as a sign of an anabolic (building muscles) state with an overall gain (retention) of nitrogen for the day, whereas a negative nitrogen balance indicates a catabolic (breaking muscles down) state.

Another way to keep track of your protein balance is by measuring your leucine balance. A positive balance of this amino acid shows protein anabolism. And as you are probably already guessing, a negative leucine balance suggests protein catabolism.

Simply said in order to have bigger muscles you need a positive protein balance. The way to know if you such a balance is to check if your nitrogen and/or leucine balances are positive.

How to maintain a positive protein balance?

As you know you can't eat all the time so there are gaps in protein intake such as when you are sleeping. So the question is how does your body maintain a positive balance when its not receiving any for such long periods.

Your body maintains its protein balance largely by adjusting tissue protein breakdown according to how much protein you feed it.

In between meals, you lose tissue protein, but after a good protein-containing meal, you recoup what you lost through a decrease in protein breakdown. In most cases the synthesis of tissue protein stays the same after the meal, yet because protein breakdown is reduced, the result is a gain in protein. This is protein balance. You don't gain muscles and you don't lose any.

In order to actually make your muscles bigger and stronger, you’ve got to work on both sides of the protein balance equation. However, the second side ( stimulation of protein synthesis ) is the most important side of the muscle-building equation. Indeed, the stimulation of muscle protein synthesis is the means by which resistance exercise makes muscles grow it’s also how some of the most powerful muscle-building hormones ( testosterone, HGH, insulin-like growth factor-1) do their job.

This makes picking out the best protein supplement a very important part of your bodybuilding efforts. There are many companies that claim their protein is the best, so be careful! The one that I use and would definitely recommend is the Muscle Advance Low Carb Whey Protein. It has a pretty good low carb formula which will keep your muscles lean and it also tastes great!

Acne In Adult People

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 15:17:00 +0000

In the post about acne myths I point out that most people think that adults don't suffer from acne. Thats a common misbelief with really bad results. People think they can just let acne cure it self with time and in most cases they are wrong, which leads to serious stress and lack of confidence in their life as adults.

There are several reasons for acne in adult people.

Not treating acne in teenage years.
Using tap water or other chlorinated chemicals.
Pregnancy and menstrual period are often causing acne in adult women.
The intake of steroids, anti-tuberculosis drugs, lithium, anti-epileptic drugs and medications that contain iodine.
Skin pressure such as the one that a backpack applies can be a cause for acne.

As you see some causes are easy to avoid like the first 2. To treat acne read my post about The 2 Best Acne Treatment Products and to deal with the tap water you can use a basic water filtration system.

The other causes are a bit harder to avoid, I doubt that women will not get pregnant just because of acne or people will stop taking their anti-epileptic drugs for the same reasons... for those people and for the adults that already have acne once again I recommend reading the post about the 2 best acne treatment products by clicking on the link I gave earlier in this post.

Try to do what ever you can to avoid the reasons for acne in adult people we already spoke about, but don't get fanatic... And if you are one of those people who think that acne will cure itself with time, YOU ARE WRONG, please treat it!

Interesting Facts About The Muscles

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 07:40:00 +0000

Gaining lean muscles has never been easier! Click here for more info!

In this post you will discover some interesting facts about the human muscles, but first I want to make sure you know, exactly what the muscles are. Basically they are the organs who allow us to move. They are made out of fibers. These fibers stretch and contract under the command of your brain. What holds the muscles to the bone is called tendon. When the muscles contract they pull the tendon, which pulls the bone and... you move.

Do you know that you have more than 640 muscles, which are separated in to two groups- Voluntary and Involuntary muscles

Voluntary are the muscles that you move whenever you want to do it, like your biceps for example.

Involuntary are the muscles that move without you thinking about it, like the heart. It contracts up to 80 times a minute and doesn't depend on whether you want it or not.

Now, when you know what muscles are, its time for the facts:

The biggest muscle in the human body is the buttock muscle
You use 17 muscles in order to smile, and 43 to frown
When you move you use 200 muscles
The strongest muscle in the human body is located in the jaw and its name is the the masseter muscle
Your muscles are normally around 40-50% of your body weight
Every half a kilo (1 lb) of muscle you gain, your body burns an extra 50 calories a day
The fibers you already know about can support up to 1,000 times their own weight
75% of the muscle is water
Producing the human speech takes 72 different muscles
The human tongue consists of sixteen separate muscles, not one as many people think.

These are the interesting facts about the human muscles I am aware of. If you know more please leave a comment!

Something else you should never forget is taking care of your muscles. Make sure you exercise, warm up before challenging your muscles and provide enough protein so they could recover from a tough work out.

Taking Cold Showers Is Healthy!

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 16:01:00 +0000

Taking a 5-10 minute cold shower is an unpopular but effective technique to keep you in shape and feeling good for many years.

Cold showers are known for these benefits:

Cleans the circulatory system.
Brings blood to the capillaries, therefore increasing circulation throughout the body.
Provides flushing for the organs and provides a new supply of blood.
Reduces blood pressure on internal organs.
Contracts the muscles to eliminate toxins and poisonous wastes.
Strengthens the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems.
Strengthens the mucous membranes, which help resist hay fever, allergies, colds, coughs.

These benefits lead to a lot more like fat loss, healthy hair, more energy etc. Just 10 minutes of cold water... its that easy. But of course be careful, don't jump right under the water cause its not going to be pleasant and it might just draw you away from the procedure. Instead do it step by step, or in this case limp by limp!

Teeth Whitening Pens

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 13:41:00 +0000

In order to have a strong spirit you need to build your confidence, and one of the things that break many people's confidence is the color of their teeth. So I decided to post about it, but I had a problem... don't know much about dental care. So I asked my personal dentist "what is the best do it your self solution?" and he recommended tooth whitening pens.

He said that many of his patients have already used it and it seems to be an easy to use, cheap and effective option.

These pens usually contain a gel that has a natural formula. If the formula isn't 100% natural just stay away from the product!

Teeth whitening pens are very easy to use. After you brush your teeth you just twist the pen to dispense some gel and apply it.

The next question I asked is more than obvious- "What brand of teeth whitening pens will you recommend to me and why?" Mark ( my dentist) told me that the one he would always recommend is the Idol White.

There were a couple of reasons for that:

His patients had excellent results using the product.
It contains 100% natural ingredients.
Its easy to use.
If you order it from the web page you get a great bargain. For a 3 months supply you get another 3 months supply free and you also get enrolled for the free unlimited refills program. This means a free lifetime supply of the idol white product!

That really got me going so I thought of doing my own research on the ingredients and their effects, but there was no point. I didn't find anything important that's not already said on idol white's ingredient page.

So if you want to check out the teeth whitening pens you should just go to Idol White's web page. There you will find all of the ingredients and how they help you, loads of testimonials and more interesting info. To do so, you need to click here!

I hope this post will help you, good luck!

Horny Goat Weed a.k.a. Epimedium

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 15:49:00 +0000

Horny Goat Weed or as some of you may know it Epimedium, is a natural and safe way to increase sexual libido in both male and female.

It was firstly discovered by a goat farmer who found out that when he gives his goats from this uncommonly looking weed they become more sexually active. This is the reason for the funny name "Horny Goat Weed"

This ancient Chinese herb works by increasing the blood levels of testosterone and corticosterone hormones. It also expands the circulatory system's blood vessels, improving the circulation of these hormones. This combination is responsible for the increased sexual desire in both genders. It also cures back , kidney , joint and liver problems.

Horny goat weed is safer than Viagra and other synthetic drugs because it produces less PDE5. This enzyme helps men get erection, but in big amounts leads to side effects such as stroke, heart attacks, low blood pressure, lack of vision and even sudden death. These exactly are the known side effects of the blue pill known as Viagra.

Epimedium is not only safer than Viagra but it is also cheaper, a bottle of good Horny Goat Weed pills ranges around 40 bucks containing around 60 pills ( Viagra- $20 per pill).

Such a good, recommendable Horny Goat Weed supplement is the " VigRx Plus ". It contains all the benefits of epimedium we spoke about plus no need of prescription, 60 days 100% money back guarantee and it contains only 100% pure pharmaceutical grade ingredients which are regularly tested to ensure the safety and quality. The FDA (Food and Drug Administration ) has approved each ingredient as safe and all appear on the FDA's GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) list.

Cellulite Massage

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 09:24:00 +0000

A recent cellulite treatment offered in the beauty centers is the cellulite massage. It works by making the cells more active under the influence of the electromagnetic field, which is a result of the petting and the light pressure applied by the masseur.

The effect of the cellulite massage is greater when a gel or cream is applied on the cellulite area of the skin. These gels make the temperature of the skin go up, which also heps the blood flow.

The cellulite massage has great effect on the walls of the blood-vessels and the flow of blood and cellular fluid in the entire organism.

Also according to some studies such a massage helps losing fats and weight controlling, so this is a great way to let someone else get you in shape!

Another great cellulite treatment is Revitol. A natural cream, which has great results in removing cellulite. Ingredients such as caffeine extract, green tea and algae are bound to help you look and feel great for the summer.

Panax Ginseng Extract

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Fri, 14 Mar 2008 09:11:00 +0000

Panax Ginseng is an old herb used widely in Eastern Asia. How old? Well its usage can be traced back over approximately 5,000 years. Its many great benefits have earned the name Panax, which is derived from the Greek pan (all) akos (cure). And as for the word Ginseng it is from chinese and means "in the image of a man".

The Panax Ginseng extract is used for treating conditions like depression, insomnia, fatigue, aging, diabetes, tumors, mental and physical stress. It also acts as a stimulant, promoting endurance, boosting the immune system and improving mental awareness.

Panax Ginseng extract is used in supplements, mostly anti-aging and sexual performance and desire boosters. Im certain in the effects of only two such supplements, so I can't point you out a whole list.

Anti-aging supplement which uses Panax ginseng extract is Provacyl. It is a mix of many natural herbs and nutrients such as the one we already know about plus Ginkgo Biloba leaf, Acai fruit and more, which provide restored mental alertness, lean muscle mass gain, fat reducing, boosted sexual virility, increased energy levels and natural HGH releasing.

For more info on Provacyl click here!

I called this supplement a sexual performance and desire booster, but it actually has a few more benefits like boosting stamina and helping maintain muscle health. This supplement`s name is Deer Antler plus. Exactly the velvet deer antlers make it so good for body building and or people who suffer from arthritis. Not many people know that the velvet deer antlers are composed of 50% amino acids.

Myopia and Pinhole-Glasses

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 11:04:00 +0000

Myopia or nearsightedness is one of the most common eyesight problems and it recently is getting even more popular. People who suffer from this condition can't see distant objects clearly without glasses.

For most people myopia is hereditary and usually shows its symptoms (headache, eyestrain and fatigue) in childhood. Many times the conditions worsens with age, and causes myopic creep.

Myopia can be treated in several ways, the 3 best treatments are:

Glasses and contact lenses
Laser-assisted surgery (LASIK)
Pinhole-glasses

In this post we will discuss the option of pinhole-glasses.

First of all you may ask why pinhole instead of normal glasses. The answer is simple- studies show that prescription glasses often assist in a faster degeneration of vision. Those results prove that using pinhole glasses is much better in the long run.

Why don't pinhole glasses have the same effect as prescription glasses?

Pinholes help the formation of a clear image on the retina without using diffraction. The same diffraction that makes prescription glasses dangerous.

The best place to look for pinhole glasses is at Pinhole Glasses They offer highly affordable glasses at the price of $19.99 a pair or the special offer of 2 pairs at $29.99 including free shipping. Their site also contains a testimonial page. This is just one of the many happy user mails:

"I want to tell you that I am very impressed with your glasses and prompt service. Your airmail package arrived very quickly and my eyesight is clear when I use the pinhole glasses. I used to struggle changing focus between my needlework and work order sheets at my workstation, but now I find it easy to do and it does not strain my eyes. I am definitely a fan of yours and may have some more orders for you from my co-workers." D.Allen - London, UK

I recommend you read a FAQ on pinhole glasses (to do so click on the orange "pinhole glasses" text ).

Hair Loss in Women

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Sat, 08 Mar 2008 10:12:00 +0000

Most people think that women don't suffer from hair loss, actually hair loss is part of the lives of more than 25 million women in the US alone. There are different types of hair loss in women. The most popular kind s is called Androgenetic Alopecia, aka Female Pattern Alopecia. This type of baldness doesn't mean total hair loss. It is simply the receding of the hairline above and in front of your head. This condition usually occurs after the menopause.

The pattern for hair loss in women may be noted with excess loss, but what brings women to professionals is the continuous thinning of the hair. It is an average of 100-150 hair strands per day that a person shed and people who already have thin hair have lower number of shedding. There is a pattern on hair loss in women. When the hair is being shed, roots grow shorter hair afterwards. After a while, it appears to be fuzzy. The genetic relations of both parents are also a factor on hair loss.

Some of the reasons for hair loss in women are unbalanced use of birth control pills, rapid weight loss, pregnancy and hereditary. Sudden mood swings and physical stress may also cause it.

Luckily, there are ways to treat hair loss in women. Unfortunately most of the solutions on the market work only for male pattern baldness, but there is a product, and a very good in fact, dedicated for women. Its name is Provillus .

Provillus for Women promotes hair follicle growth, thereby supporting hair re-growth. It keeps the hair healthy and full-bodied by supplying adequate nutrients. Some other things I like about the product are:

The ingredients are FDA (the US food and drug administration) approved
Its on the market since 1996
Provillus is not just a topical solution, but a system that has both a topical solution and a dietary supplement
Its a risk free investment since the company offers a 90 day money back guarantee, which also shows great confidence in the quality of the product

To check out Provillus you can click here

5 Weight Loss Supplement Ingrediants That Most Of You Have Never Heard Of!

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Thu, 06 Mar 2008 14:38:00 +0000

These 5 natural ingredients are used in some weight loss supplements with great success. The 2 most interesting things about themare that they aren't very popular and that they make a great combination between each other, plus a couple of more well known weight loss helpers like Hoodia and green tea.

Chitosan
Chitosan is a starch found mainly in the exoskeletons of shellfish like crab and shrimp. This fiber works by binding with the fat in your body and excreting it through the stool. Thats the reason it is used in some weight loss supplements.

White Kidney Bean Powder
Loads of studies show us that White Kidney Bean interrupts the digestive process that converts starch to sugar, that way it lowers the caloric intake from foods such as rice and bread. By reducing the absorption of these sugars, the body has fewer calories to store.

White Willow (bark)
White willow bark is a tree native to Europe and Asia. The name "white willow" comes from the color of the leaves, which are covered with fine white hairs. Its known for its ability to promote the metabolizing of fat and increase caloric expenditure.

L-Methionine
Methionine is a lipotropic, it helps the liver to process fats (choline, inosol, and betaine). It also prevents the accumulation of fat in the liver, and maintains normal liver function.

Beetroot
Beetroot encourages and supports liver metabolism, normalizing the Ph of the body and strengthening the blood.

Keep in mind that these 5 ingredients have more than one effect. For instance the beetroot has also kidney cleansing properties and many more benefits. As you already know the combination of these 5 and a few more herbs and nutrients gives you a powerful weight loss weapon. The good news is that you don't need to look for each one by itself. There are supplements that contain all of them. You probably know that I have one favorite supplement that I always recommend- the Proshape RX. And yes it contains all of the mentioned ingredients. There are a lot of reasons why proshape is my favorite but I don't intend to go into any details, if you want to get more information simply check out my post on it by clicking here.

The 2 Best Acne Treatment Products

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 22:19:00 +0000

Acne is one of the most popular skin problems. This is why there are so many products, which claim they can remove acne overnight. And as I and you know some of them, or even most, don't work even after months of use. I personally found my cure in the ClearPores 3 way system, but I was thinking "what if there was someone to tell me about it, before I spend my time and money on all the other solutions?". So I decided to be that somebody for you. Here are, in my opinion, the 2 best acne treatment products:

ClearPores 3 way system

If you have seen some of my other posts on acne, you must have noticed that I recommend this system a lot. The reason for this is simple, I used it and it helped me. It is a 3 point facial and body system. The 3 points are- Deep Wash, Herbal supplement and Protection Cream.

The Deep Wash is used to unclog the pores and fight the bacteria, the supplement will help your body fight acne from the inside, with the help of herbs such as Aloe Vera, Echinacea and Dandelion. The third part of the system- the protection cream is used to keep the pores clean, moisturize the skin and protect it from drying out. It will do so for a period of 24 hours .

I found this video on the net, I think you might find it interesting.

For more info on ClearPores check out here!

Acnezine

It contains only natural ingredients such as Aloe Vera (leaf) and Bioperine Extract. They help control the free radicals that cause skin damage, aging and wrinkling, and that can contribute to infection. It also limits inflammation, promotes healing, helps take care of the ugly redness, and works to limit the inflammatory response that can cause scarring.

I recommend the Acnezine even though I haven't used it, cause I've gotten so much positive e-mails about it and also I know the company that is behind it and I know they can be trusted.

For more info check out here!

I hope this post will be of help to you. Once again I want to say that this is my opinion. And you are the one that has to decide for yourself. Good luck!

Menopause Symptoms

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Thu, 28 Feb 2008 20:47:00 +0000

If you are unsure you know what exactly menopause is, I suggest you read The Menopause

Menopause is different for every women, some have just a few symptoms ( around 12%) and others develop almost all of them (14%).

The average menopause age is 52 years, if it occurs before this age it is considered premature.

Here is an almost complete list of menopause symptoms.

Hot flashes
Sleep disorders
Night sweats
Changes in menstruation
Mood swings
Depression and anxiety
Irritability
Cardiovascular disease
Difficulties in concentrating
Mental confusion
Hair loss and hair thinning
Memory problems
Decline in libido
Vaginal dryness
Headaches
Urinary problems
Osteoporosis
Thinning of the skin around the cervix.
Breast tenderness
Tiredness
Weight gain

Symptoms can be noticed for several months to years before the last menstrual period and can continue for several years after, and as you already know the severity is different in every women. But some don't undergo even one of the symptoms. Why? Because they know how to treat menopause naturally. Tough taking all the herbs like Black cohosh, Dong quaiр and Promensil would help, there is a far better, easier and effective way. Natural supplements such as Menozac already contain all the herbs, nutrients and vitamins needed for an easy menopause. And this is all they contain, so they are 100% natural. If you are the type with a heavy menopause you better check them out. The one I recommend ( menozac ) has been on the market for 15 years which is very important. I personally think that the longer a product has been on the market the more confidence you can have in it. If you want to have a look at it click here.

A Hoodia Supplement Success Story!

noreply@blogger.com (SSotirov) — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 14:43:00 +0000

If you don't know what Hoodia gordonii is, my advise is to read this post- "What is Hoodia?".

In short the Hoodia gordonii plant is a natural appetite suppressant. It is found in South Africa and a few other countries including the USA. Fortunately Hoodia supplements can be found worldwide, or at least online stores deliver it almost worldwide.

As you know, losing weight comes trough eating right. Thats a bit hard to achieve when you crave chocolate ice cream or pop corns. Here is where Hoodia gordonii comes to help you. Some say its the key to sticking to a diet. And that definitely is true for one person.

Today I stumbled on an article in my favorite bulgarian health newspaper. It was about a girl named Plamena Dimitrova, who lost over 20 pounds while taking Hoodia supplements. She knew what she had to do in order to lose weight. She exercised and tried to eat healthy, but she had a problem her appetite was voracious. Some times she was almost out of control, forgetting about diets and healthy eating, and even if she was actually eating something healthy, she would still eat too much and go over her calorie quota for the day. This was a huge problem which made her weigh loss dream seem impossible.

Then Plamena saw an article on Hoodia supplements on a blog, just like this one, then she checked out the site and saw all the happy costumer testimonials and decided to give it a try. Soon after she started taking the supplements, she began to notice that the craving was gone and she didn't need to eat nearly as much food as she once demanded. Now Plamena follows her diet strictly and has some impressive results. Too bad the pictures are on the newspaper and I can't post them for now...

There are 3 morals to the story.

Appetite suppression is important because you can't have effective weight loss if you can't stop eating.
Hoodia gordonii works!
Never give up on your dreams, no matter how unachievable they seem!

There is one thing to keep in mind, not all hoodia supplements are the same. Although they may have hoodia in the name, some may not have any in their ingredients. Actually, most sold today are like that! They are not regulated by the government so the companies selling them have wide latitude in the claims they make.

Authentic supplements can play a big part of an overall weight loss program as shown by Plamena's success story. However, it's important to keep their role in perspective. Hoodia will not perform miracles for you, but it can sure be the key to your own success story!

Now the big question is. Which Hoodia supplements offer the real deal. I personally always recommend the ProShape RX supplement for a bunch of reasons. It is 100% natural and as I personally have witnessed it gets the job done. Proshape contains not only Hoodia gordonii, but also a wide mix of herbs and nutrients like Green Tea, L-Methionine and more, so it will not only suppress appetite but also produce a couple of more great benefits like more energy, faster metabolic rate and others.
