BACK ON TRACK

It is definately time for me to get back on track with this blog... it has been far too long!  I am just coming down from a very exciting weekend in Australia.  As a matter of fact, my husband and I have been here for nearly three weeks already and ill be heading back home one week from today.

As our body clocks have been turned upside down, sleep is prime importance to us.  We are getting into this time zone and will be turning ourselves back upside down again.  Sleep is so important for our mental and physical well being!  As soon as we get home, we have this waiting for us... http://www.marketamerica.com/index.cfm?action=shopping.wpGoShopProducts&skuID=13123

Did you know that a lack of sleep can actually accelerate the aging process.  As we enter our prime years, we seem to have a harder time sleeping through the night.  Drugs are not a good solution because there can also be so many side effects from them.  

So, if you are having trouble sleeping through the night, why not look for better ways to sleep through.  Make a regular bedtime routine, perhaps a nice relaxing bath to clam down. (Much better than an action filled TV program, wouldn't you think?)  Then you can read something to encourage you and finally, if that does not work for you, go the natural route.  Created with new technological breakthroughs in the anti-aging field, Prime Dreamz is a unique product designed for anyone who is having trouble with restful sleep.  It contains Magnesium (a mineral many of us are short on) along with herbs that will help you fall into a restful deep sleep and wake up in great form.  

Get your beauty sleep to feel refreshed, energized and look your best!

For Your Heart and More Leading Anti Aging Drs. Recommend Omega III

On Saturday our church ladies had a presentation by The Long Island chapter of Women Heart.  (http://womensheart.org/) This presentation told me much of what I knew, but more importantly, was a strong reminder of what I need to DO.  One of the women presenting to us had a heart attack at 59, with her only symptom being fatigue and a little indigestion (something that we all experience at times).   I have concluded things do need to be changed in our lives.  Some of the foods we eat need to be eliminated and regular exercise increased.  These are not things we haven't done before, so, I know we can do it again; it just needs to become a permanent part of our lives.

One day after this talk, my husband said "You know, you really should take Omega 3 every day."    He showed me an article, with facts about its affect on cardiovascular health, like this statement from Don Colbert, MD "Omega 3 improves circulation. Helps lower triglyceride levels. Protects your heart. Improves joint movement and promotes brain Health" I do know this, but, I tend to forget taking my pills. I love to drink my vitamins, but, not so with swallowing pills. Then just to reinforce and motivate me a bit more,  I researched and found an article by the Mayo Clinic~~the top five foods for lowering cholesterol  listed as #2~~you got it! Fish. Not ones like the common mass farmed Tilapia; the ones best for Omega 3 like lake trout, Salmon, halibut...(http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/cholesterol/CL00002). I know this; I teach it; I also know that it can help with weight management and joints and so many other things....

picking this topic up five days later....

My knees had been bothering me going upstairs. Two days after taking my Omega three daily...I noticed going upstairs I wasn't feeling the pain. Coincidence? I think not; the day I did not take....pain back. So this week we had fish 4 times, I took my Omega, and took better care of my heart and the heart of my husband. ❤ 

I just want to add this, Market America's Heart Health™ Essential Omega III with vitamin E is a superior product for a number of reasons. Most comercial products contain only a third of the actual fish oils this product contains. It 's fish oil only comes from the small fish, which will not contain the amount of toxins as large fish.  You can read about the uniqueness of the product by clicking here: 

Heart Health Essential Omega Iii Fish Oil With Vitamin E - Single Bottle (30 Servings)

So, this week we have increased our exercise, eaten more fish, I have been diligent about taking my Omega 3.  It has been a good week.  

LEMON AID!

So good for you!

Looking to have a fresh start to spring? Yes it is on its way...Get a fresh start! Does drinking lemon water daily sound exciting to you? I did not think it would, but there are amazing benefits to this little citrus fruit squeezed into water. Besides being Vitamin C rich, it also contains vitamin B, has calcium, riboflavin, magnesium, just to name a few nutrients.

Too much cozying up next to the fire with hot chocolate and cookies this winter could be cause for your spring wardrobe fitting little snug. Adding lemon water daily can assist you in any weight loss program. It paves the road to quicker weight loss; it will help your body to eliminate toxins, cleanse and even help with some of your aches and pains because it is a diuretic. A great way to start your morning would be to take hot water (I use my biggest water glass) and squeeze half a lemon into it, before you have caffeine. If you cannot contemplate plain water and lemon, add a bit of agave nectar or honey. If you start out with a smaller piece of lemon, your taste buds will grow to accept it without sweetener, so I would recommend just try it that way. When I was on a veggie detox, starting my day with this, on about the fourth or fifth day it actually tasted sweet. I read a recommendation to actually do this twice a day; I may try that because there are so many other benefits to doing so.

It will help your complexion, keep you regular, aid in digestion, its antibacterial properties can help with sore throats and respiratory issues (I actually wipe down my wood cutting board with it rather than soap--then lightly rub in Mineral Oil~that is an extraJ), helps lower blood pressure and relax the mind (stress reduction), and, the pectin can also assist in cholesterol lowering. There are too many benefits as far as I can see to not incorporate this into daily intake. Why, it sounds like sitting down and relaxing with a nice cup of tea as my grandmother used to enjoyJ, not discounting the benefits of green tea here of course, but her tea consisted of lots of sugar and milk taking the benefits away other than it was her method to relax.

So, get your system ready for the freshness of spring. Start your day cleansing and purifying; add to that an exercise routine, healthy eating, and, you will be off on the right foot. When you bring out your spring wardrobe, it will still fit; as an added benefit you just might also have glowing skin to match it. Did I mention anti-aging as well? TimelessBeauty4U!
