Pure insanity… Last week British scientists suggested that cholesterol-lowering statin drugs should be given out with fast food orders in order to erase the heart risks linked with eating fatty foods.  I wonder, did these scientists miss Health Class?

Would you like MacStatins’ with your burger?

We have a choice.  Pharmaceutical intervention is wonderful as a last resort.  However, when it appears that Science is promoting the usage of  these drugs, applauding unhealthy lifestyle choice, you have to wonder what the motivation is.

Statin Drugs are a 50 billion dollar industry… Are we looking at a ploy to make it a 100 billion dollar industry?

It’s your life, don’t compromise.

Glorifying Obesity...

Many of us grow to accept defeat , stop looking for a solution, and then find a way to gain acceptance for our limitations.

“If a hundred foot oak tree had the mind of a human, it would only grow to be ten feet tall!”

- T. Harv. Eker.

Accepting and glorifying unhealthy lifestyle and condition

is contributing to the growing global Obesity epidemic.

As an example,  Italy crowned its twenty-first “Miss Ciccione d’Italia” or “Miss Chubby” in the village of Forcoli, near Pisa. – Read “A Different Kind of Beauty Queen”

Join the movement to reverse the Obesity Epidemic

Many of us have struggled to shed fat. There are thousands of weight loss ads out every day!  The sad part is, we are faced with a global obesity crisis.

What if there were a simple rule to follow… You know that your body has the control of systems!  Would you follow that system to get the results?

Seven years ago, Javier Garrido was full of energy, responsible, and happy. He had three jobs and worked out at the gym for hours every day. He fell in love, got married, and when his wife, Johanna, was eight months pregnant, a tragedy happened in their lives…
Javier had an accident at work and broke his back in three different places and his left hand was lacerated. He had to learn how to walk again and it took him a year and a half to be on his feet. In the meantime, he grew depressed due to his disability and started to eat compulsively. He no longer had the passion to live and the gleam in his eyes was gone.

Johanna couldn’t watch her husband going into self-destruction mode and she encouraged him to drink Bios Life Slim to give him the boost he needed to change his life. Javier was able to overcome his sense of helplessness and he lost 40 pounds in 12 weeks! He no longer complains about back pains and

he even took Johanna to go dancing all night long on her birthday recently.

“Slim has helped me to see life differently. I feel capable of accomplishing many things in life, my energy levels have improved and I no longer have to take pain killers for my back.”

He added, “Before Slim, I didn’t have the energy to play with my kids and I felt like I was 50 and I’m only 32 years old. Now that I drink Slim twice a day, I’ve stopped drinking soda and improved my eating habits—I enjoy eating fruits and vegetables. I eat whole wheat bread instead of white bread. I’ve switched regular oil to olive oil, and I’ve started to exercise and go to the gym again. I’m taking spin classes and I’m having fun!”

As he looks back, Javier remembers he was embarrassed about his weight. “Every time we had to take pictures, I would always volunteer to be the photographer because I hated having my picture taken and I wasn’t happy with the way I looked. I had trouble finding clothes that fit me. No matter what I would wear I would always look fat. When I saw the Ryan Barnett story, I was motivated to change my life since he’s just a regular person like me.”

It’s NOT just Baby Fat, it’s a Nation-wide Epidemic!

A new study from the Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine reports that almost one in five American four-year-olds is obese, and the rate is alarmingly higher among blacks, Hispanics, and American Indians.

The report’s lead author said that rate is worrisome among children so young, even in a population at higher risk for obesity because of other health problems and economic disadvantages.

“The magnitude of these differences was larger than we expected, and it is surprising to see differences by racial groups present so early in childhood,” said Sarah Anderson, an Ohio State University public health researcher. She conducted the research with Temple University’s Dr. Robert Whitaker.

The study is an analysis of nationally representative height and weight data on 8,550 preschoolers born in 2001. Children were measured in their homes and were part of a study conducted by the government’s National Center on Education Statistics.

The findings revealed that almost 13 percent of Asian children were obese, along with 16 percent of whites, almost 21 percent of blacks, 22 percent of Hispanics, and 31 percent of American Indians.

According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, adults fare no better. Approximately 45 percent of blacks, 36.8 percent of Mexican Americans and 30 percent of whites are obese.

Obesity leads to unhealthy complications such as high blood pressure and abnormal blood lipids which can lead to heart disease and stroke and diabetes in children.

Diseases commonly seen in 40- or 50-year-olds are presenting in six- and seven-year-olds. Obese children are developing type 2 diabetes, fatty liver disease and musculoskeletal problems, which occur because their bodies can’t carry that much weight.

The latest winners of the Slim 90 Day Challange have been announced.  Ryan Barnett lost 65 lbs.  Not only that, his Cholesterol changed dramatically – Before Slim his Total Choleseterol was 223, the Triglycerides – those unhealthy fats were at 319.  Ninety days later  His Total Cholesterol was 178 and the Triglycerides plummeted to 67

Growing up, Growing out.

Growing up, Ryan stood out from his family—he was the chubby one. At school, he was the clown—making fun of his size so others wouldn’t. It wasn’t until high school that Ryan was able to slim down because he was active in sports. 
However, five years ago, Ryan got a job, got married, and his lifestyle became more sedentary. Ryan began to gain weight and eventually weighed 293 pounds. He was exhausted, depressed, and discouraged about life. “I had gained 100 pounds in just a few years and I became so depressed about it that eventually I didn’t want to see people I hadn’t seen in a long time. I didn’t want to go out in public, I was afraid people were looking at me all the time.”

He added, “Up until that point I’d try to avoid mirrors and scales because I did not want to accept the fact that I was gaining weight.”

 

Life gets complicated.
Before Bios Life Slim™, Ryan had tried several other diets without success. “In the past three years, I probably tried four or five diets. I’ve tried products that would make me less hungry but nothing seemed to work for me. After a few days, I’d give up.”

To make matters worse, events in Ryan’s life contributed to his weight gain. “A few years ago, my mother and father died just a few months apart from each other and that was a big blow to me. I used food as a comfort to drown out any sorrows— it was a big problem for me.”

He added, “Anytime that anyone would hand me any snack, I’d shovel it in my mouth. I loved food. I’d be snacking all the time.”

Then one day at a doctor’s appointment, “My doctor was telling me that my blood pressure was high and my cholesterol level was skyrocketing. He told me: ‘You’ve got to lose this weight.’ He started handing me all these weight loss pamphlets and that was embarrassing. I didn’t want to hear a person saying that I needed to lose weight—that was my wake up call.”

Losing 65 pounds in ninety days!
 “I started with just taking Bios Life Slim and I saw results. The first week I lost 12 pounds. During the second week, people were already asking me, ‘are you exercising or something? You look like you lost some weight in the face.’ So I said to myself: let’s take this to the next level. I started eating right and exercising along with Slim and I saw huge results.”

He added, “It helps to go in with the right mindset. You need to find out why you want to lose weight. I did it for health reasons and because I wanted to be happy again. Once you’re on that track it’s just so easy.”

Ryan said that keeping a journal and planning meals ahead is beneficial to the weight loss progress. “I kept a journal each week. For the first three months, I tried to write down everything that I ate. I also tried to plan out my meals in the morning and what I’d eat that day. You don’t want to make it too hard for yourself so in order to limit my food intake I’d portion my food in advance.”

He said joining the Get Slim Challenge was the extra push he needed. “The contest is another thing to add to the list of incentives. Every time you tell someone you’re in this competition is another reason to keep going and not let them down.”

Changing how to live with food.
Ryan also shares what not to do. “Before joining the contest, one of the worst things that I did was that I would skip breakfast. I was just on a big rush to go out the door and around lunch time I was starving. I just wanted to eat anything in front of me. I’d go on my lunch break to McDonald’s or to a Chinese buffet. All the time that I was going to eat, it wasn’t about nourishing myself, it wasn’t about being hungry anymore; it was about being completely full to the point that I couldn’t move. Now I have breakfast every morning and in case I’m hungry between meals, I have some carrot sticks.”

Ryan said that in order to stick with a diet, it’s important not to deprive yourself of foods you enjoy. “One important thing that I did in this entire 90-Day Challenge, it’s not limiting yourself saying that you’re never going to eat cake anymore or chips again. I still like those things, so I take one day out of the week—I choose Saturday—and I eat whatever I want. That was the day I set aside to eat the things that I love. The rest of the week I’d be fine, following my diet.”

He added, “Don’t starve yourself. I think a lot of people make this mistake. They feel like if they’re hungry, they’re going to be losing weight—but that is not true. You’re just setting yourself up for failure because you’ll binge when you see or smell something you really like. It’s important to make sure you’re full all the time.”

Exercise is a must, Ryan said. “Whether it will be jogging, walking, or swimming, find some exercise that works for you. Something is better than nothing. Find your intensity level, stick with that and gradually build up. Do it three or four times a week. Also, find little things throughout the day to exercise. For example, take the stairs instead of the elevator.”

Ryan emphasized, “Improve your eating habits, become more physically active and Slim will work wonders! Slim does work and you can change your life. Anybody can do this, do at your own pace. Make sure to drink Slim at least twice a day [with your largest meals].”

Life after Slim

Ryan’s confidence got a boost when friends and family started noticing his body transformation.“I have people coming up to me and saying ‘I barely recognize you!’ I can’t tell you how good it feels to have someone recognize how much weight I’ve lost. It has helped me to build confidence in almost everything I do, and propels me to continue on even further.”

Ryan’s life improved in other ways. “I saved a lot of money because I don’t eat fast food anymore.”

Ryan encourages others to lose weight and to take Slim.

“I have people come up to me daily and ask what I’m doing and how they can get their hands on Bios Life Slim. It’s a true privilege to help others catch the vision and lose weight. I’m accomplishing that by first helping myself. If there’s one thing that I could say through this experience is that anyone can do what I—and many others—have done.”

Weighing 85 pounds less now, Ryan is happy again and he tells us about his new lifestyle. “I no longer have knee or back pain. I have more energy, I’m more physically active and I have become conscious of what I eat. I eat to live now and not live to eat. Overall I’m a much happier person and life is good again.”

Is it not time that we stop relying so heavily on Pharmaceuticals?   We are creating our own Hell on Earth  with our demands on the Medical system and by continuing with our own bad habits. There are absolute alternatives that most of us do not understand or embrace.

Pharmaceutical companies will bend over backwards to create a drug for a condition. Even though there are natural alternatives clinically proven, in the SAME research facilities to be more effective, billions of dollars are spent to find a drug alternative that is known to cause significant side-effects.  Financial gain is sustaining the momentum on this practice, however we are the ones creating the demand for it by not taking proper care!   Our Medical facilities cannot keep up with the demands we place on them either!

Medical professionals are not taught an overwhelming amount of nutrition. They understand how treat a condition with pharmaceuticals, and they are, for the most part,  bound to follow that training.

The popularity of dietary supplements has created a great deal of research on the interactions of drugs and supplements.

Due to a large rapidly aging population relying on pharmaceutical products, it is found by some of the research, there is a monumental risk that these individuals will suffer nutritional inadequacies, or worse, nutritional deficiencies induced by the use of pharmaceuticals.  The impact of waste from these products flushing through our bodies and down the drain, are another contributing factor to global environmental catastrophes and global epidemic health problems.

Another example was the delayed publishing the news of the radioactive spill of Tritium at the Automic Energy Canada, Chalk River nuclear facility in December.  It is well known that this facility is in desperate need of upgrade for public safety, however this plant generates 70% of the global supply of isotopes used for Cancer radiation and medical diagnostics.  Some are downplaying it as “just a minor amount”, not to worry.

But , consider that a great deal of cancers would not occur if we had proper nutrition.  We also need to reduce our exposures to harmful elements.  We all know this, but were are running our routines, no time to change gears.  It’s somebody else’s problem, somebody else’s fault.  Are we really helpless to  effect change?

Calcium de Glucarte is a formulation which has given several Cancer patients years of life and a quality of life.  Calcium D-Glucarate’s effect is to favor the body’s natural defense mechanism for eliminating carcinogens thus preventing many forms of cancer, including lung, breast, prostate, and colon. It was proven in several studies done at the MD Anderson Cancer Clinic in Houston , Texas. There are no toxic effects from taking D-Glucararate.  I have heard of many people gaining several years of quality life using this. How many people have ever heard of this ?    Do you wonder why ?

Would there not be less of a demand for the nuclear facility in Chalk River and  those isotopes if we were to personally place more focus on managing our health and environment a bit better?

Statins are globally used to assist the Cardiovascular epidemic reduce cholesterol.  This is 40 billion industry in North America. The Statins are known reduce CoQ10 in your body- this is extremely important for heart health. As CoQ10 decreases people develop congestive heart failure.

Our bodies are not chemical processing plants.  I doubt that evolution is going to have us caught up to that any time soon either! Why are we, marching so steadfastly to that Pharmaceutical pit here in North America?  Heart disease is 80% preventable, and yet it is the leading cause of death globally.  .

Diuretics used to decrease the volumes of salt and or water in our bodies to reduce blood pressure.  They do this very effectively.  The trade-off is depletion of the essential minerals magnesium and potassium, and  the Vitamin-B , thiamin responsible for neuro-function and carbohydrate metabolism.

Metabolism is important!!  We have an epidemic of Obesity epidemic to the point where we are thinking it might just be a good idea to get those fat kids on Statins… ? We have solid science on natural alternatives that absolutely work. Why is that not part of the medical regiment?

Pharmaceuticals provide important benefits to patients with medical problems but consumers should beware of the potential depletion of nutrients associated with their use.

We have absolute solid science on many natural alternatives that address serious conditions.  Pharmaceuticals provide important benefits to patients with medical problems.  To learn more on Calcium D-Glucarate go to the link above WELLNESS, WOMEN’s Health – Women’s Formula Plus,      MEN’s HEALTH- Men’s Formula Plus. For further information on Bios Life, the only clinically proven natural alternative for Statin Drugs see HEALTH SOLUTIONS, Read about Bios Life, read about the Heart.

I believe that the responsibility is ours to pay attention to our lifestyle alternatives.  We are running out of time!

Once you read this you will always remember your Bios Life Slim!

According to a new study conducted by researchers at Columbia University Medical Center, spikes in blood sugar levels can be linked to age-related memory loss. The new study was published this last December in the Annals of Neurology Journal.

Using high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging to map the brain of 240 elderly volunteers, the researchers found a correlation between elevated blood glucose levels and reduced cerebral blood volume in the dentate gyrus, a pocket in the hippocampus section of the brain. The hippocampus is the area of the brain associated with memory and learning formation.  Damage to this area of the brain can cause amnesia and it is one of the first areas damaged once diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.

The finding suggests that tools to improve blood sugar levels may help both the body and the brain as it ages. Dr. Scott Small, associate professor of neurology at Columbia University Medical Center, said in a news release that because blood sugar levels tend to rise with age, “our finding suggests that monitoring and taking steps to maintaining blood sugar levels, even in the absence of diabetes, could help maintain aspects of cognitive health.”

McEwen, who heads the neuroendocrinology lab at Rockefeller University in New York and was not involved in the research, said the study’s findings were “compelling,” with important implications not just for the elderly but for the growing number of overweight children and teens at risk of Type 2 diabetes.

“When we think about diabetes, we think about heart disease and all the consequences for the rest of the body, but we usually don’t think about the brain,” he said. “This is something we’ve got to be really worried about. We need to think about their ultimate risks not only for cardiovascular disease and metabolic disorders, but also about their cognitive skills, and whether they will be able to keep up with the demands of education and a fast-paced complex society. That’s the part that scares the heck out of me.”
Low blood sugar levels have the most impact on the brain since glucose is the primary source of material for its energy production.   When the brain senses low blood glucose levels it signals to the body the need to eat more food in order to supply the brain with more energy. This cycle repeats until the body becomes insensitive to insulin. Once the body becomes insensitive to insulin, the pancreas quits producing insulin and the result is diabetes.

We are all anxious about the current economic downturn, the state of our environment, the state of our health.  We have come to enjoy a very high standard of life, and many of us are worried about our economic futures.  We are absolute creatures of habit.  Inside we understand that we are at a point where these habits must change to alter the coarse of destruction we have created.

When your car breaks down and there are major repairs, somehow you find the resources to repair it.  If you had a fuel leak, would you put a bandaid over it, or would you get it fixed properly?  If you see signs of your health declining, are you taking the steps to fix it properly or are you using bandaids?

We have a health care system in this country and yes, in Canada, the Government lets us write off the medications prescribed.  The Pharmaceutical companies are raking in the cash, doctors and medical facilities  are overburdened by our demands on them.  Our medical system is structured so that physicians are trained to use phamaceuticals.  They are obligated to use them.   Are we not responsible for our own state of  well-being?  Are you a chemical factory? or would you not rather avoid that trap?

Pharmaceuticals are  bandaids.   Many come with life altering side-effects that we have habitually come to accept.  Your body was designed to work with food, and not with chemicals.  I do not believe that evolution can turn us into machinery that quickly!

Listen to your body.  We know more and care more about our automobiles than our bodies.  Yes, nutritional supplements are expensive, however,  our soils are depleted of minerals from the chemicals and techniques we have used.  The produce we consume is gased and preserved so that it looks good when we buy it.  But is it doing the job?

Why do 60% of women and 50% of men die of Cardiovascular disease?  Where did childhood obesity come from?   Why is there a growing threat of an alzheimers’ epidemic?  Why are SO many people developing Cancer, and auto-immune disorders?

If we continue to follow the pack like the creatures of habit we are and ignore the facts these problems will only continue to escalate.

What is more important, your car?  or your health?
