Pure Water for Good Health

2006-07-24T17:35:00.000-07:00

Why Pure Water Is So Important To Your Health
1. Water is more than a thirst quencher. It is a vehicle for carrying nutrients to your cells. Water also acts as a natural lubricant to limbs and joints.

2. Water is quite possible the single most important catalyst in achieving or maintaining desired weight.

3. Water supresses the appetite naturally and helps the body metabolize stored fat. Studies have shown that a decrease in water intake will cause fat deposits to increase, while an increase in water intake can actually reduce fat deposits.

4. Most people drink less water than their bodies require. This leads to mild dehydration which can cause dizziness, minor headaches, loss of appetite and sense of not feeling mentally sharp

Water filtration is a priceless investment in family health and wellness. Pure water is the foundation to good health, after all our body is over 70% water.

Shower Water Filter

2006-05-18T18:49:00.000-07:00

A shower filter is becoming a very popular filter for many. Chlorine in your shower can cause dry, itchy skin. It can also make your hair brittle and ruin your coloring. Over half of most peoples chlorine intake is from their shower. Chlorine is used in the treatment of most public water supplies because it kills harmful bacteria and other waterborne, disease-causing organisms...

But there is growing evidence that chlorine in water may actually pose serious health risks when it is absorbed into the human body over long periods of time.

Not only is chlorine absorbed through the skin, but it also vaporizes in the shower, is inhaled into the lungs, and is transferred directly into the blood system.

Once you try one of these filters you will wonder why you didn't get one sooner.

Fluoride Water Filters

2006-04-22T17:23:00.000-07:00

Why use a fluoride water filter? Municipal water treatment plants commonly add fluoride to the water to help prevent tooth decay, and they try to maintain a level of 1.5 - 2.5 mg/l. Concentrations above 5 mg/l are detrimental to tooth structure. High concentrations are contained in waste water from the manufacture of glass and steel, as well as from foundry operations.

Organic fluorine is present in vegetables, fruits and nuts. Inorganic fluorine, under the name of sodium fluoride, is a waste product of aluminum and is used in some rat poisons. The MCL established for drinking water by the US EPA is 4 mg/l.

So for those of you who prefer not to have fluoride in your water, we have a selection of fluoride removal filters from Crystal Quest®.

Water filters are becoming a necessity for many people. If you get your water from the city you may believe that the city filters this water for you. While it is true that city water is decontaminated. The goverment allows a certain amount of contaminants to remain in your water.

Also city water is usually decontaminated by adding chlorine. This chemical can be hazardous to your health. Another way water can get contaminated is on its way from the city storage facility to your home. The pipes in your home and leading to your home could be adding dangerous lead and other chemicals. It is a good idea to filer out these dangerous chemicals by using a home water filtration system. There are so many types of filters to choose from - where does one start.

The first thing you need to do is determine what contaminants are in your water. You can get test strips from most home stores or have your water tested by a professional testing lab.

Healthy Eating Habits You Can Live With

2005-02-26T19:49:00.000-08:00

Healthy Eating Habits You Can Live With this site has great prices on waterless cookware. Cooking with minimum water helps your food retain vitamins and minerals. Just think how much healthier your meals would be if you used a good set of waterless cookware.

Cooking the healthy way - with little or no water has many benefits. It saves money because food shrinks less and less fuel is used in cooking. You save time because you don't need to watch the pot and stir. You save work because the stainless steel pots are easy to clean, dishwasher safe and you don't need to peel your fruits and vegetables.

Scientific studies have shown that waterless cooking saves vitamins and minerals. Foods cook in their own juices and have better flavor, color and texture.

Learning to use waterless cookware is easy. Just keep in mind these basic rules.

1. Always use the right size pan. Select the pan that your food will most nearly fill. If the pan is too large there will be air pockets and this can dry your food or possibly cause it to burn. For best results the pan should be about 2/3 full.
2. Rinse prepared fruits and vegetables. Rinsing in cold water and then draining is important because it removes harmful chemicals that may have been sprayed on the food and it allows enough water to cling to the food to combine with the natural juices and cook your food in its own steam.
3. Control the heat. Always control the heat throughout the cooking process. If the heat is too high, the steam evaporates and your food burns. Never put heat higher than Medium.
4. Get a vapor seal. Start cooking on medium heat until the steam control valve whistles. Then turn the heat down to low or simmer and close the valve. When you do this the lid forms an air-tight seal. It can take about 3-5 minutes for the valve whistles depending on the type of food you are cooking. Generally, the more water the food contains, the faster the steam valve will whistle.
5. Don't Peek. This is vey important, but you must resist the urge to peek. When the cover is removed while cooking, heat and steam are allowed to escape. This lengthens the cooking time and dries out the food.
6. Vacuum release in knob. If lids lock on when food is done, simply open the valve to release the vacuum and remove the lid.

So it is best to buy a filter that has more than one stage of filtration. One of our more popular filters has 5 stages of filtration from Crystal Quest.

1. the first stage is a one-micron filtration pad that removes all visible particles such as silt, sediment, rust, sand, dirt, other undissolved particles as well as GUARDIAN, CRYPTOSPORIDIUM and other microbiological CYSTS.

2 & 3 Water passes through a bed of media made of a special high-purity alloy blend of two dissimilar metals - copper and zinc systems contain a patented media, KDF-55D® and KDF-85D®, which has been tested to drastically reduce or effectively remove: Chlorine, Lead, Arsenic, Barium, Cadmium, Chromium, Selenium, Mercury, Iron and other metals that may be present in the water. KDF® is listed under NSF standard 61 (health effects) for water treatment plant applications

4. Stage 4 The Coconut Shell Granular Activated Carbon is used to improve the taste and odor and to remove: Chlorine, THMs, PCBs and hundreds of other organic contaminants that may be present in the water. The Coconut Shell GAC listed under NSF standard 42.

Diets

2005-01-02T15:29:00.000-08:00

Now that New Years is upon us, many have resolved to go on a diet and lose weight. There are just so many diets out there, how do you pick the one that is right for you?

My personal recommendation is to find a plan you will be able to live with - not for just a week or month, but for the rest of your life. One of the best resources for the weight loss secrets - without dieting and harsh exercise or bills is Ultimate Weight Loss Revealed. It is a downloadable ebook, and contains lots of useful information for those who are serious about changing their eating habits.

There is the Atkins diet, which claims you will lose weight by eliminating carbs from your diet. There has been a lot of controversy regarding the safety of this type of dieting. While it does work for many people, there are still many questions regarding the long term affects of eliminating carbs. If you cannot eliminate carbs for the rest of your life, then this may not be the diet for you. This diet is also high in fat and I personally would not recommend it.

Another popular diet is the south beach diet. This one seems to be sensible and not too restrictive. If you are looking form a diet that will help you lose weight in a sensible and healthy way, take a closer look at this one.

There are several other short term diets that I will list here, just in case you want to check them out. Any diet that eliminates entire food groups is generally not very healthy.

The 3 day diet may work for temporary weight loss, but I definitely would not recommend it.

The cabbage soup diet - this one just sounds ridiculous.

The Zone Diet - I am not too familiar with this one, but it seems to be quite popular and has been around for a while.

To sum up, any diet that claims to be a quick weight loss diet, will most likely result in some initial weight loss. In the long run, most people that try these diets will gain all the weight back within a year or less. This is primarily due to the fact that when one "goes off" the diet and back to their normal eating patterns, the weight will come back.

Lose Weight for New Years

2004-12-31T18:24:00.000-08:00

Are you one of the millions of people who resolve to lose weight this year? It seems that every year people make a New Years' resolution to lose weight. Unfortunately most of them fail within the first few weeks.

So, why do most people fail in their resolution to lose weight? I believe it is because they want a quick fix. Most people are looking for a way to lose weight fast. While virtually every diet works for losing weight, most of this weight loss is temporary. The weight loss is temporary because when a person stops the diet and goes back to their normal eating pattern, the weight comes back on.

Another reason many people fail at a diet is because the diet is too restrictive. They feel deprived. Most people cannot live very long following one of these restrictive diets. I know I can't. The secret to successful weight loss is to change your lifestyle. You need to find a diet you can follow for the rest of your life.

Don't think of a diet as something you go on for a while to try to lose weight. A diet is just the food you eat. While it may be beneficial to follow a more restrictive eating plan while you are trying to lose weight, you will need to find something that you can maintain forever in order to keep the weight off.

So why should you listen to my weight loss advice you may ask. Well, I don't have experience in losing weight, but I have maintained my weight between 140 and 150 lbs for over 20 years. I am 5'8" tall, so that is a good weight for me. I don't follow any special diet, I pretty much eat what I want. I just seem to want mostly what is healthy. For instance I always use skim milk. I cook my food in waterless cookware for low fat healthy food.

I do exercise to help keep my weight down. No strenuous exercise though. I like walking for weight loss. During the spring and fall I go hiking a lot. During the summer I love to go kayaking. The best thing to do is find something you enjoy. It doesn't feel like exercise, its just fun.

My biggest weakness is chocolate. I love chocolate. I know this is something I could never give up. So I generally have the best chocolate, made without preservatives or artifical ingredients. Just like the gourmet chocolates available at IndulgeInChocolate.com. When something is more expensive, you don't buy as much. Therefore you cannot eat as much. Once you taste the best chocolates, the other cheap stuff just doesn't measure up any more.

If you are looking for a great resource that will help you to lose a sensible 2 to 3 pounds a week without dieting, killer exercises or pills - then I recommend the ebook Ultimate Weight Loss Revealed. It has a lot of sensible and useful information on maintaining a healthy weight. Plus it is guaranteed, so there is nothing to lose.

Lose Weight

2004-12-28T19:57:00.000-08:00

Are you planning to lose weight next year? For many people this is a top priority for their New Year's resolution list. The sad part is that most people will fail within the first month. Don't let this happen to you.

If you need to lose weight, the first thing to consider is why? Why do you want to lose weight. In order to succeed you must lose weight for yourself. It must be because you want to live healthier. If you start with the intent finding a "diet" to lose weight, you may very well lose weight. But you will not be successful unless you keep the weight off.

Keeping the weight off is not as difficult as it sounds. The key is to make a permanent change in your lifestyle. Your current habits made you gain the extra weight in the first place. If you go on a diet, then after losing the weight, go back to what you did before. The weight will come back. Guaranteed!

Healthy Weight Loss

2004-12-25T18:33:00.000-08:00

Healthy weight loss can only occur by increasing our intake of pure, healthy water. Water is not only the number one ingredient for a healthy body on the inside‚ but it also plays the lead role in maintaining a healthy and youthful appearance on the outside.

The quantity and the quality of the water we consume determines our body‘s ability to metabolize and shed excess fat and properly maintain the body‘s largest organ‚ our skin.
Weight loss is primarily the result of our liver converting stored fat into usable energy. This process not only requires sufficient water intake‚ but also can be greatly accelerated by consuming an abundance of clean‚ healthy water. Water also suppresses the appetite naturally and helps digest our food properly.

When we increase our water intake it naturally speeds up our metabolism and allows our body to better assimilate nutrients from the foods and nutritional supplements we consume‚ the result being natural and healthy weight loss.
