12 Reasons to Eat Dairy

Live longer, feel better, lose weight: Dairy has some powerful health benefits! Borrowed from: Perri O. Blumberg
1. Some cheeses have anti-inflammatory properties. Scientists recently found that Roquefort has anti-inflammatory properties, which can help protect against cardiovascular disease & may help account for the low incidence of heart disease in France. Researchers hope to extract Roquefort’s beneficial traits to use in medicine & anti-aging remedies. Experts speculate that the health benefits might be linked to the qualities of molded, fermented cheeses, so try to incorporate other types like Camembert into your diet, too.

2. Eating cheese & fermented dairy products may help reduce the risk of diabetes. According to a 2012 study from the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, having at least 55g of cheese a day, reduces the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by about 12%. Researchers speculate this could be because of the probiotic bacteria present in cheese & yogurt, which can lower cholesterol & create certain vitamins that shield against diabetes.

3. You can prevent tooth decay by eating cheese after a meal. In Harold McGee's book On Food and Cooking, he explains that eating cheese prevents acid secretions from clinging to your teeth: "Calcium and phosphate from the cheese diffuse into the bacterial colonies and blunt the acid rise." 4. Eating dairy helps with sleeplessness. For those suffering from insomnia, a protein naturally occurring in milk may improve sleep quality & next-day alertness. Additionally, tryptophan which raises levels of serotonin & melatonin, both of which aid in getting a good night's sleep. Having milk, cheese, or yogurt is, also, easier on your stomach & rich in calcium, which promotes transforming tryptophan into calming melatonin.

The ingredients in it are formulated to allow your body to get to the metabolic rate(REM) it needs to be at during the night to repair, restore, & rejuvenate. Our bodies were meant to sleep at night.

When you drink the Nite Lite® 3 hours after your last meal, just before bed, you will not only enjoy the fat burning, muscle building effects, but you are also getting the anti-carcinogenic & anti-tumorigenic benefits that Nite Lite® has to offer while enjoying the best night sleep that you have ever had. Sleep deprivation is the#1 medical problem in the U.S. today.
5. Most cheeses are naturally gluten free. Even those blue cheeses that are made using the traditional technique of growing penicillium roqueforti on bread loaves contain far less than the commonly accepted threshold of 20 parts per million of gluten. 6. You can eat cheese even if you're lactose intolerant. Aged cheeses, such as Asiago, Parmesan & bleu cheese, contain little or no lactose. So even people with lactose intolerance should be able to eat aged cheeses since all the lactose (milk sugar) has been converted by bacteria to lactic acid. Additionally, all natural cheeses are very low in lactose. Most of the lactose is removed when the curds are separated from the whey when making cheese, so these shouldn't pose any issues too. 7. You can pair dairy with a spicy meal to slash the heat. Drinking milk afterwards or combining spicy foods with a dollop of yogurt helps lower the spiciness. 8. It keeps you full. As a filling snack, or an addition to a hearty sandwich, cheese can help you keep satiated longer. A study published in the January 2013 issue of Pediatrics found that children who snacked on a combination of cheese & vegetables consumed 72% fewer calories than children who were served potato chips alone. 9. It's a great source of protein. Cheese is a protein-rich food. Harder styles of cheese, like parmesan, have higher protein contents than softer cheeses, with some parmesans having 11 grams per ounce. 10. You can keep your cheese from going moldy. By simply wrapping it in a paper towel soaked in white vinegar & placing it in a sealed plastic bag in the refrigerator. The acid from the vinegar prevents mold from forming. Some note that vinegar may affect the flavor of the cheese, so if this is a concern for you, use a vegetable peeler to remove mold from a firm cheese. In general, if cheeses (other than fresh cheeses and blue cheeses) develop a blue-green mold on the exterior, you can make a cut about an inch below the moldy area and the rest of it should be fine to eat. 11. You can save your rinds for soup! Parmigiano rinds work great, but save rinds from any of your favorite hard cheeses to use them as "soup bones" to add flavor a vegetarian broth. Many cheese shops sell rinds for this very purpose; just ask if you need any assistance finding them. 12. You can make feta healthier. This herbaceous, salty, flavorful cheese (which is packed in salted water) can be soaked in water for a few minutes and rinsed thoroughly, before tossing into salads or adding to pastas, to reduce sodium levels dramatically without really changing the flavor.

Exercising Outside

Exercising outside is much more enjoyable than inside, & may be more motivating as well.  British researchers say it isn't just the surroundings, but the color green.  When cyclists watched videos of a woodsy environment, they felt happier & less tired than when they viewed the same scenery in black & white or red filtered.  Dominic Micklewright, Ph.D., of the University of Essex, says positive emotions probably make it easier to work out more often & for longer.

Ways to Boost Your Metabolism

Our metabolism is what turns everything we eat & drink into energy for our body. The faster it is, the more calories we burn off, making your metabolism an important part of maintaining a healthy weight. If you are looking for ways to boost your metabolism, try these tips: Skip the labor-saving devices & work your body instead. Rev up your engine; require more energy from your body with physical activity. Do aerobic exercises for at least 30 minutes, 5 days a week. Don’t skip meals; depriving your body of food actually slows your metabolism. Nibble on health snacks often, and eat smaller meals at mealtime. Find out your calorie allowance, which is based on age, gender & physical activity level. Build muscle with strengthening exercises twice a week, such as using hand weights, resistance bands, yoga, etc. Balance energy intake from foods & beverages with energy out as in physical activity & exercise.

What is ADHD?

From the U.S. National Library of Medicine: ADHD is a problem with inattentiveness, over-activity, impulsivity, or a combination. For these problems to be diagnosed as ADHD, they must be out of the normal range for a child's age and development.
Causes ADHD is the most commonly diagnosed behavioral disorder of childhood. It affects about 3 - 5% of school aged children. ADHD is diagnosed much more often in boys than in girls. Depression, lack of sleep, learning disabilities, tic disorders, and behavior problems may be confused with, or appear with, ADHD. Every child suspected of having ADHD should be carefully examined by a doctor to rule out possible other conditions or reasons for the behavior.
Symptoms There are 3 groups of ADHD: Lack of attention (inattentiveness) Hyperactivity Impulsive behavior (impulsivity) Some children with ADHD primarily have the inattentive type. Others may have a combination of types. Those with the inattentive type are less disruptive and are more likely to not be diagnosed with ADHD. Inattentive symptoms Fails to give close attention to details or makes careless mistakes in schoolwork Has difficulty keeping attention during tasks or play Does not seem to listen when spoken to directly Does not follow through on instructions and fails to finish schoolwork, chores, or duties in the workplace Has difficulty organizing tasks and activities Avoids or dislikes tasks that require sustained mental effort (such as schoolwork) Often loses toys, assignments, pencils, books, or tools needed for tasks or activities Is easily distracted Is often forgetful in daily activities Hyperactivity symptoms: Fidgets with hands or feet or squirms in seat Leaves seat when remaining seated is expected Runs about or climbs in inappropriate situations Has difficulty playing quietly Is often "on the go," acts as if "driven by a motor," & talks excessively Impulsivity symptoms: Blurts out answers before questions have been completed Has difficulty awaiting turn Interrupts or intrudes on others (butts into conversations or games)
Diagnosis The diagnosis is based on very specific symptoms, which must be present in more than one setting.  Children should have at least 6 attention symptoms or 6 hyperactivity/impulsivity symptoms, with some symptoms present before age 7. The symptoms must be present for at least 6 months, seen in two or more settings, and not caused by another problem. The symptoms must be severe enough to cause significant difficulties in many settings, including home, school, and in relationships with peers.

Dangers of Grapefruit

Did you know more than 85 drugs interfere badly with grapefruit, with 43 of them dangerously so?  The same problem can happen with limes, Seville oranges, & pomelos.  The interaction between grapefruit, whether in the form of the fruit or the juice, and certain medications can be significant. The interaction occurs because a substance in grapefruit interferes with the breakdown, or metabolism, of the medication. As a result, the patient ends up inadvertently taking more, or in the case of fexofenadine, less, than the prescribed amount.
What Drugs Interact With Grapefruit?
Cholesterol Medication The consumption of grapefruit (or grapefruit juice) increases the concentration of lovastatin, a cholesterol-lowering medication, in the bloodstream, resulting in potentially toxic levels of the drug. Antihistamines Unlike many of the other drugs that interact with grapefruit juice, according to a study out of the London Health Sciences Centre in Ontario, fexofenadine, an antihistamine, levels actually decrease with the consumption of normal quantities of grapefruit juice (300 ml, which is a little more than a cup of juice). According to Graedon's Guide to Grapefruit Interactions, published by The People's Pharmacy, grapefruit as a whole fruit & grapefruit juice have the same effect. Immunosuppressant Cyclosporine, sirolimus and tacrolimus, used by transplant patients, are immunosuppressants, which means they "turn down" the immune system. It is used after organ transplants to help prevent rejection by the transplant recipient, and for active rheumatoid arthritis. The list of potential side effects is a long one and includes a higher risk of infections (since the immune system is less able to fight off infections), headaches, high blood pressure, nausea, diarrhea, abnormal hairiness and tremor. Since grapefruit impacts the breakdown of cyclosporine, patients who eat grapefruit (or drink grapefruit juice) while on cyclosporine will have higher concentrations of the medication in their bloodstreams Calcium channel blockers Amlodipine is in a class of drugs called calcium channel blockers. The class as a whole may be used for a variety of conditions, but amlodipine is most often used to treat high blood pressure and to help patients who have angina (chest pain caused by a decreased blood supply to the heart). Levels of amlodipine will be higher than prescribed if patients consume grapefruit in any form (juice or whole fruit) while on this drug. Medications in this class that interact with grapefruit include felodipine, brand name Plendil, and nifedipine. Heart Rhythm Medications Quinidine & amiodarone, two drugs that are used to control abnormal heart rhythms, compete with grapefruit for metabolization by the CYP3A4 enzyme complex. Amiodarone may not be effective in treating heart rhythm abnormalities when taken with grapefruit. This drug is an anti-arrhythmic medication that works to normalize an irregular or fast heart rate. Hormones Oral contraceptives and agents used for hormone replacement therapy, such as estradiol, are among the drugs that are affected by grapefruit. As is the case with other medications, grapefruit increases your blood levels of these hormones, which raises the risk of side effects, such as blood clots, headaches, nausea and vomiting, breast tenderness and excessive vaginal bleeding. Statins Statins are drugs used to lower high cholesterol levels. MayoClinic.com lists several statins that interact with grapefruit, including simvastatin, lovastatin and atorvastatin. The consumption of grapefruit with a statin drug increases the likelihood of the usual side effects associated with statin use, which include liver damage, muscle injury and kidney failure. If you eat a lot of grapefruit or drink a lot of grapefruit juice, you may want to ask your physician about statins that will not interact with the fruit, like fluvastatin, pravastatin, or rosuvastatil, notes Harvard Medical School. Neurological and Psychological Medications Various medications used for neurological and psychological conditions, like anxiety or depression, also interact with grapefruit. These medications include benzodiazepines like diazepam and triazolam and antidepressants like buspirone and sertraline, says the Harvard School of Medicine. Anti-seizure medications like carbamazepine can also be affected by grapefruit, adds MayoClinic.com. Buspirone is a medication used to treat anxiety. Unfortunately, eating a grapefruit while taking buspirone can decrease its effectiveness. Medications that have little to no interaction with grapefruit include clonazepam, flurazepam, haloperidol and zolpidem. Sedatives and Anticonvulsants Among the sedatives and anti-anxiety medications affected by grapefruit are diazepam, zaleplon, buspirone and triazolam. Carbamazepine, a drug used to control seizures, interacts with grapefruit, too. Increased blood levels of these medications caused by ingestion of grapefruit will intensify their side effects. More MayoClinic.com lists other medications that may be affected by grapefruit, including certain antibiotics, the anti-arrhythmia drug amiodarone, the antihistamine fexofenadine, and several anti-retroviral drugs used to treat HIV & AIDS, including saquinavir, ritonavir, & indinavir. Researchers have found that grapefruit, orange & apple juices reduce absorption of the anticancer drug etoposide.  Dextromethorphan, an over-the-counter cough remedy, is also affected by grapefruit.

Top Foods to Lower Cholesterol

A bad diet is key to unhealthy cholesterol levels. Try these foods to lower cholesterol:
Almonds They're rich in unsaturated fats that help raise HDL while lowering LDL.  These fats, also, help make LDL less likely to oxidize, which means it's less likely to plug up your arteries. Keep an eye on portion, though. Almonds are high in calories,so all you need are a 2 ounces a day. Drink Orange Juice OJ manufacturers are fortifying their juice with plant-derived cholesterol-busting compounds known as phytosterols. A review of 84 scientific studies revealed that getting 2 grams of phytosterols a day, the amount in 16-ounces of sterol-fortified OJ, could help lower harmful LDL levels by more than 8%. Check with your doctor first regarding whether citrus will interact with any of your medications. If it does, look for sterol-fortified margarine, milk, soymilk, cheese, or breads instead. Olive Oil Olive oil is rich in antioxidants & heart-healthy monounsaturated fats that help lower LDL cholesterol & increase HDL. In a study of people with high cholesterol, blood samples showed less potential for harmful clotting just two hours after the study subjects ate a meal with olive oil. That's because olive oil is rich in phenolics, plant substances that makes blood less likely to clot. Only 2 tablespoons a day for benefit & use it in place of other fats. Steamed Asparagus Have a platter of crudités or a salad if you want to improve your diet, but steaming may help improve the cholesterol-lowering capabilities of some produce, including asparagus. Other vegetables that get better after steaming include: beets, okra, carrots, eggplant, green beans, & cauliflower. Researchers think steaming these vegetables may help them do a better job of binding bile acids, which means your liver needs to use up more LDL cholesterol into order to make bile. That translates into less circulating LDL in your bloodstream. Oatmeal Start your day with a bowl of warm oatmeal. Of all the whole grains, oats are the best source of soluble fiber, the kind that forms a gel to prevent cholesterol from being absorbed into your bloodstream. Try to get 5 to 10 grams of soluble fiber a day. If you have 1¼ cups of cooked oatmeal for breakfast, you'll start your day with 5 grams. Top your oatmeal with a chopped-up apple for an extra 3 grams of fiber, and you're set. Cook Pinto Beans Try adding pinto beans to your next chili. They're packed with soluble fiber to help lower cholesterol. And in a study, people who ate a half-cup of pinto beans a day lowered their total cholesterol by 8% in 12 weeks. (Tip: If you use canned beans, rinse them to wash away excess sodium.) Blueberries This superfood helps keep your arteries clear by reducing blood levels LDL. Researchers suspect it's because the berries support liver function so well. Which means: cholesterol gets swept out of your system much more easily. Enjoy blueberries fresh, frozen, or freeze-dried. They all have the same benefits. Tomatoes Include lycopene-rich tomato products in your diet every day for a few weeks, & you may knock your LDL levels down by as much as 10%, according to a recent study. Researchers think the lycopene in tomatoes inhibits LDL production while at the same time helping break down this artery-clogging fat. You'll need to consume at least 25 milligrams of lycopene a day for cholesterol benefits. That's about a half cup of tomato sauce. Avocado They're chock-full of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats that help knock down LDL cholesterol & triglycerides while boosting HDL. Mash avocado into guacamole, add slices to a sandwich, chop it up in a salad, or spread a little on whole-grain crackers with a tiny pinch of coarse sea salt. Chocolate Here's some good news: Studies confirm dark chocolate is healthy stuff. It's full of flavonoids, which are antioxidants that help lower cholesterol. It, also, has oleic acid, the same type of heart-healthy monounsaturated fat found in olive oil. To improve your cholesterol, just have a little, up to 1 ounce of dark chocolate a day. Check the label to make sure your chocolate is at least 70% cocoa.

Natural Remedies for an Upset Stomach

(Borrowed from Alyssa Jung)For gasiness, constipation, nausea, or indigestion try these natural remedies:
1. Carrot & Mint "Juice" If you're suffering from the winter flu, try this drink: Boil 4 sliced carrots, 4 cups of water, and 1 teaspoon of dried peppermint or 1 peppermint teabag. Turn the heat to medium-low & cook about 15 minutes or until carrots are soft. If you're using a teabag, remove it, then blend the mixture until smooth & enjoy! You can, also, add a pinch of ground ginger to further soothe, or squeeze of lemon juice for flavor. The carrot provides nourishment & peppermint soothes your stomach. 2. Rice Tea Make a rice "tea" to settle an upset stomach or stop diarrhea." Boil 1/2 cup of rice in 6 cups of water for about 15 minutes. Strain out the rice, then flavor the water with a dash of honey or sugar & drink warm. 3. Burnt Toast You have heard that toast is good for an upset stomach, but burnt toast is even better, because the char absorbs toxins that are making you feel ill. Add a smear of jelly to make it tasty. 4. Apple Cider Vinegar A mixture of 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, 1 cup warm water, & 1 tablespoon honey will ease indigestion & may help cramping & gas. It can, also, lessen discomfort caused by heartburn. 5. CRAP Diet For constipation, try the CRAP, which stands for "cherries, raisins, apricots, & prunes," diet. These are fiber-friendly foods that should get your system moving. 6. Yogurt Yogurt helps a stomachache due to the probiotics, which eases digestive discomfort & boosts your immune system. Be sure to choose non-fat plain yogurt without added sugar or flavors. 7. Caraway Seeds Caraway seeds are packed with vitamins & minerals, which inhibit the growth of bad bacteria that causes indigestion, gas, or bloating. Nibble on a handful after eating your meal, or if you feel gassy. 8. Fennel Whether it's indigestion, or gas & bloating, fennel can help. Sip a fennel tea, chew on a few fennel seeds or crunch on some raw. It supports digestion, reduces gas, helps with cramping, & reduces nausea. 9. Heat Place a hot water bottle or heating pad on your stomach. The heat increases blood flow to the skin surface & transfers the perception of pain from inside your stomach to the outside.

Managing Stress

When you think of stress, you probably think of major life-disrupting events like: a job loss, a gravely ill parent or friend, a case of identity theft, a significant financial loss. But sometimes, stressors can come in smaller packages, such as: the juice glass that broke at breakfast, the weeds gathering in the flowerbed, the phone call you need to make to your mother. Every day troubles may not be monumental & probably don't feel extremely stressful. Individually, they certainly don't seem awful in the grand scheme of overall emotional well-being. But could those little daily stresses harm your health or even make you susceptible to serious illness & disease? Maybe according to researchers. Recent studies suggest that the total of minor stresses from everyday life may be the worst of all. These mini stressors, eventually, can add up to major, chronic stress.
Are minor stresses getting the best of you? Watch for These Signs of Potential Chronic Stress: Emotional Physical Anxiety, worry, & guilt Irritability, anger, & frustration Depression Loneliness Disorganization, confusion, & distraction Headaches; muscle, neck, back tension or pain Constipation Insomnia Heartburn, stomach problems, &nausea Weight gain or loss Skin problems Loss of libido

The ingredients in it are formulated to allow your body to get to the metabolic rate(REM) it needs to be at during the night to repair, restore, & rejuvenate.
Stress & Your Health Unfortunately, it's very easy to let the little aggravations get out of hand. When these minor problems take control, your body may experience the same damaging physical effects that major chronic stressors can cause. Stress activates the nervous system, stimulating the secretion of certain hormones & increasing blood pressure, heart rate, breathing, metabolism, and blood flow to the muscles. Most of the time, this process is helpful. The boost in activity helps the body meet greater demands during crises. But this extra physiological activity may take a toll! Normally, the body can recover when the stressful situation subsides. But when the stress response is turned on too often, or for too long without time to recover, the body suffers! Depending on the amount of stress, this price could be high. Several studies have shown a link between elevated stress levels & deficiencies in your immune system. In fact, long-term, unrelieved stress may depress immune system function so much that the body becomes more susceptible to colds, flu, and other infections. Research has, also, linked excessive stress to chronic illnesses & diseases, including heart disease & cancer.
	Omnitrition's Immune Defense® Helps You Support a Healthy Immune System. Immune Defense has been known to help people with suppressed immune systems.

Everyone should take antioxidants! They are, also, beneficial to people who suffer from allergies & chronic sinus infections.
What to do to Manage Your Stress?  Here are some strategies for maintaining your equilibrium & protecting your body from stress: You probably know exercise is one of the best stress-busting tools around. Research shows that exercise routines with Eastern influences are helpful, such as those that incorporate yoga, chi-gong, and tai chi. Researchers have, also, found that meditation, if practiced regularly, not only can lead to a healthier perspective on daily circumstances but may help lower blood pressure as well. It has even been linked to a longer lifespan. Meditation works by inducing a tranquil state of calm through mental focus & breathing techniques. Similar to meditation, autogenics training & progressive muscle relaxation induce calm by focusing attention & increasing body awareness. Autogenics training accomplishes this through visual imagery, such as concentrating on a peaceful place, and through awareness of body sensations, such as focusing on the weight or temperature of the limbs or on calm, natural breathing. Progressive muscle relaxation involves slowly & systematically tensing & releasing various muscle groups, focusing on the feelings & sensations that accompany tension & relaxation. With practice, you can achieve deep relaxation quickly, even in stressful situations.
Try These Simple Tension-Relievers, too: Consume less alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine. Practice deeply inhaling & slowly exhaling. Set aside 15 minutes for active relaxation like autogenics training, meditation, or taking a brisk walk. Keep in touch with supportive family members & friends. Take short breaks frequently. Visualize relaxing scenes.

Tips for Muscle Cramps

Did you ever wake up with a "Charlie Horse" in your calf muscle?  What can you do?
According to MayoClinic.com, muscle cramps are defined as sudden and involuntary contractions of one or multiple muscles in your body. Muscle cramps can occur during the day or awaken you from sleep. They are usually harmless, with physical exertion, hot weather and certain medical conditions -- such as nerve compression, hormone disorders and anemia -- being possible causes. Muscle cramps can be treated at home & usually go away quickly. Certain vitamins might help reduce the occurrence or recurrence of muscle cramps.
The vitamin B complex is eight different B vitamins -- including B1, B2, B6, B12, biotin, folic acid, niacin and pantothenic acid. The B vitamins help metabolize food into energy that can be used by your body during physical exertion, as well as when you are performing daily tasks. The vitamin B complex also is important in creating red blood cells and transporting oxygen through your body. Oxygen is essential to keeping your muscles healthy and in preventing muscle fatigue. A vitamin B deficiency can lead to muscle cramping. Vitamin B can be supplemented or received through food sources -- such as whole grains, seafood, dairy, chicken, meat, eggs and leafy, green vegetables.
Omnitrition's Charge® Gives you Energy to Face the Day! Who needs more energy?...almost anyone! Full of B vitamins, Omnitrition's Charge® is very helpful with: stress, fatigue, anxiety, energy, focus, & concentration. B vitamins are also natural anti-inflammatories, so they are helpful for people who suffer from many kinds of muscle or joint aches & pains. In addition, Omnitrition's Charge® has Phenylalanine, a natural pain killer.
1. Vitamin C Extreme physical exertion, including heavy physical labor or an intense workout, can lead to an increase in free radical production, according to "The Vitamin Book." Free radicals attach to muscles and cause damage and weakness. The antioxidant properties of vitamin C can help protect your muscles from damage, leaving them strong and healthy. Without vitamin C, you might experience muscle cramps, tension, aches or injury in the days following intense physical labor. Vitamin C can be supplemented. You can also find vitamin C in a large number of food sources -- including strawberries, other berries, cantaloupe, oranges, tomatoes and potatoes. 2. Vitamin E Like vitamin C, vitamin E also contains antioxidant properties that can help rebuild muscles and reduce cramping and soreness. By preventing free radical damage, vitamin E can help keep your muscles strong after intense physical exertion. Vitamin E also contains anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce muscle inflammation and repair muscle fibers that become damaged. Vitamin E can be found in wheat germ, nuts, seeds, canola oil, egg yolk, wheat, oats and green, leafy vegetables. 3. Vitamin A Vitamin A contains antioxidant properties, according to "The Vitamin Book." These properties are important for the health of your bones, muscles, skin, eyes and joints. Vitamin A helps ensure proper growth and development of muscles. Vitamin A also has anti-inflammatory properties to help reduce inflammation that can lead to muscle cramping. Anti-inflammatory properties can also help rebuild damaged muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage and bones. Vitamin A can be taken as a supplement or found in liver, cantaloupe, carrots, kale, collard greens and fortified milk.

1. Take 250mg vitamin E a day to prevent nocturnal leg cramps. Studies suggest that taking vitamin E improves blood flow through the arteries. 2. If you tend to get cramps during exercise, drink at least 2 cups of water before each workout. Then stop and drink 100ml to 250ml every 10 to 20 minutes during your exercise session. If you sweat a lot, consider a sports drink, such as Lucozade Sport or Gatorade, that replaces lost sodium and other electrolytes. Cramps are often caused by dehydration, so if you get cramp frequently, drink more water. Try drinking less water before and during a workout. In some cases, drinking a lot of water prior to working out may actually cause more cramps. But do drink plenty of water throughout the day, just not right before exercising. 3. Restore potassium, magnesium and calcium concentration in your blood. For example, eat more bananas, peaches, cheese like cheddar, dried apricots, chocolates, cod liver, sea food, etc. 4. When you have finished exercising make sure you warm down by going for a jog and doing stretches. If you get cramps rest and stretch them out 5. Severe cramps can often be a symptom of an underlying condition such as thrombosis, embolisms. If your doctor has cleared you of the worry over these two, do check into a fibromyalgia diagnosis, as this is often difficult to diagnose. The "pressure point" test is one that is easy to administer by your doctor, and you can find out almost immediately if you're a likely FMS patient. In this case, some medications can alleviate your symptoms almost entirely.

Will You Get Diabetes?

Did you know about 79 million Americans have prediabetes? This means they have blood sugar higher than normal, but not high enough to be diagnosed with type2 diabetes. Without prevention, people who are prediabetic will probably become diabetics in 10 years or less.
Here are steps to help prevent or delay getting diabetes: 1. Lose 7% of your body weight. That is only 15 pounds, if you weigh 200. That along with regular moderate exercise has shown to lower the risk of developing type2 diabetes by about 60%. 2. Exercise 30 minutes 5 days a week. Choose moderate-level exercises, like brisk walking, playing tennis, lifting weights, even scrubbing floors. In some, prediabetes can raise the risk of heart disease & stroke by 50%. Monitor your blood sugar regularly. A fasting blood sugar of 100 to 125mg is prediabetes & 126mg or higher is diabetes, where below 100mg is normal.
