Boosting the nation’s Selenium intake may help reduce the severity of Swine Flu

Mark — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 12:56:08 +0000

People who follow a diet rich in the mineral Selenium, which is found naturally in Brazil nuts, cereals, meat and fish, could be less likely than others to experience severe influenze H1N1 (Swine Flu) symptoms. Studies suggest that viruses become more virulent in those who are selenium-deficient, causing more severe, longer-lasting symptoms (1).

Unfortunately, the UK’s Selenium intake has fallen well below the Government’s reference level of 75mcg/day for men and 60mcg/day for women. Average UK intakes are in the region of 34mcg/day (2). This raises fears that Britons are at increased risk of experiencing more severe influenza H1N1 (Swine Flu).

Medical nutritionist and independent advisor to Healthspan, Dr Sarah Brewer suggests that people can potentially reduce the severity of viral infections by increasing their intake of Selenium-rich foods or by taking a *Selenium supplement. If choosing a Selenium supplement Dr Sarah recommends finding a selenium yeast supplement which is widely regarded as the international gold standard quality due to its high bioavailability.

Dr Sarah Brewer comments: “I believe that the reason why the severity of Swine Flu infections in the US is reduced could be attributed to the fact that, as a nation, their Selenium intake levels are adequate. Lack of Selenium is now recognised as a ‘driving force’ for influenza virus mutations (3), which may explain why so many new, pathogenic influenza viruses emerge from Asia, where Selenium intakes are among the lowest in the world.”

Henrietta Norton, Healthspan’s senior nutritionist, said: “Selenium is often referred to as the ‘miracle mineral’ and although it’s only required in very small amounts, it’s vital to our health being essential for the body’s antioxidant enzyme defences. Of course, nothing will truly guarantee protection against a severe infection such as Swine Flu, however supplementing the diet with Selenium could enhance the body’s immune system, helping fight against infection as well as potentially reducing the severity of an infection.”

* Healthspan’s Selenium Yeast Tablets 200mcg with Vitamins A, C & E, offers a powerful antioxidant combination that can help the body combat the cell damaging effects of free radicals attributed to an influenza/flu infection. These are available on www.healthspan.co.uk or by calling freephone 0800 73 123 77. They cost £5.45 for 180 tablets and £9.95 for 360.

School Run Cold Trap

Mark — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 14:22:13 +0000

Research reveals why driving to school increases the risk of catching cold and flu

New research from Kleenex® Anti-Viral shows they may be unaware that their car can be a prime breeding ground for spreading and catching germs: only 1% of parents think their kids are susceptible to catching a cold in the car compared to 84% in school classrooms and 13% in the playground.

The car is potentially a cold and flu trap due to limited air circulation, passengers contained in close confinement and used tissues.

Over 50% of parents questioned admitted to leaving their used tissues in the car for longer than a day and only 30% clean them out once a month, leading to a build up of used tissues in car doors and footwells.

This combined with 94% of school runs clocking in at up to 30 minutes each way, means there is a greater chance for germs to circulate and a longer time for your family to be exposed to them.

Famous family doctor and mother of three, Dr Dawn Harper identifies cars as a high risk factor in the cold cycle and shares her top tips on how families can prepare themselves against colds and flu this winter.

She explains: “Parents are protective over their child’s health and try to maintain high levels of hygiene within the home. We are forgetting to take preventative measures when ferrying our kids around in the car – it takes just one sneeze in a car environment to release millions of air borne germs.”

“It is vital to contain these germs and the easiest way to do this is to instil hygienic tissue usage and disposal, especially as Kleenex’s research shows 55% of children using their sleeve or hand to wipe their nose if a tissue isn’t readily available!”

With a third of parents (33%) offering lifts to neighbours and friends’ children, instances of colds are not just confined within the family either. And with more than 30% not buying tissues to keep in the car, it means your own children are more likely to come down with a cold or the flu this winter.

Dr Harper continues: “Germs can remain virulent for up to 24 hours, even in a used tissue, but it is not always easy or practical to throw away a tissue immediately when you are driving. An easy way to protect you kids against cold and flu germs in the car therefore is to use an anti-viral tissue that kills 99.9 percent of major cold and flu viruses in a tissue.”

Here are her top tips for families for the winter:

Practice coughing etiquette – use a disposable tissue (preferably an anti-viral one) and remember to dispose of it as soon as you can

Open windows to increase ventilation and reduce humidity (this will reduce the risk of airborne viruses)
If you have a virus, avoid travelling
Wash your hands when you get out and don’t touch your mouth before doing so
In addition to avoiding germs and washing your hands, your family can stay healthier during cold season by getting sufficient sleep and exercise, drinking plenty of water and eating a nutritious diet
Anti-Viral tissues available in box format, at all major retailers RRP: £2.15 for a single pack, £3.80 for twin packs.

Tests have shown that Kleenex Anti-Viral tissues will kill99.9% of the following viruses in the tissue within 15 minutes:

· Influenza A and B that causes flu

· RhinovirusesType 1a and 2 that are the leading causes of colds

· Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), the leading cause of lower respiratory infection in children

Boost Energy Levels With Co Q10

Mark — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 14:01:50 +0000

Healthy Direct (www.healthydirect.com) the vitamin and mineral supplement provider has launched Co Q10, a new energising supplement that helps maintain general health and wellbeing.

Coenzyme Q10 is an essential nutrient which is produced naturally in the body and is the catalyst in transforming food into energy. It can help a variety of health problems from improving muscle function and reducing blood pressure to reversing the ageing process and boosting energy levels. The older you get however, the levels of Co Q10 decrease.

Henrietta Norton, senior nutritionist at Healthy Direct says: “Co Q10 is a potent antioxidant and helps our body to function efficiently and as such an important energy source, large organs can struggle if levels drop – you could say that Co Q10 acts as the body’s spark plugs! As well as aiding a variety of health problems you can also combat the damage caused by beta blockers, blood pressure lowering medication and statins.”

Healthy Direct’s Co Q10 provides 60 capsules of 100mg doses to be taken daily and is available from www.healthydirect.com or by calling 0800 107 57 57.

Why Use High Protein Low Carb Diets

Mark — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 22:45:29 +0000

: Image via Wikipedia

We need protein in our diet to stay strong and healthy. If we don’t eat enough our bodies will steal it from our muscles and organs. In fact, protein is essential for the development of our muscles, which lead to an increase in the burning of calories. Our muscles could be described as fat furnaces as they keep our metabolism running high.And protein is very good at curbing appetite and balancing blood sugar in contrast to many “fast release” carbohydrate based foods and snacks.

Protein also helps reduce carbohydrate cravings. Carbohydrates, especially sweets and starches, can trigger the brain to crave more of the same–which leads to a vicious cycle of overeating. Protein foods help block cravings. When you eat protein with healthy carbohydrates, such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains, the protein will keep you satisfied, while reducing your cravings for sweets and starches. This makes protein a powerful ally in your quest to lose weight.

Protein comes in the form of meat, soy products, cheese and dairy products. However, most of these are in the form of animal proteins, which add greatly to the bad cholesterol in our bodies. Therefore we need to look for high quality proteins, in our diet, from non-animal sources.Protein-enriched meal replacement shakes, protein supplement powders and high protein low carbohydrate snack products, contain protein sources which are easily absorbed and assimilated, and which allow you to reach your body’s protein requirements without those unwanted calories.

And for those concerned about Cholesterol levels? The inclusion of at least 25g Soya protein per day as part a diet low in saturated fats can help reduce blood cholesterol.

Bottoms The UK’s Forgotten Body Part

Mark — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 08:00:52 +0000

· Strictly’s Lisa Snowdon has the ‘perfect bottom’, research reveals

· 73% of women and 52% of men hate their bottoms

· Over half of women desperately wish their bottoms were smaller

· 49% of women have chosen a small, firm bottom as their ideal shape

· However 56% of men are more attracted to women with round, peachy bottoms

· 61% of Brits spend between 5 and 8 hours a day sitting down

· 54% of people don’t dare look at their bottoms in the mirror

· Of the 56% of women who’ve had their bottoms pinched, 61% hate it

Independent research today reveals that the UK’s most forgotten and neglected body part is the bottom! The majority of us spend between five and eight working hours abusing our bottoms by sitting on them all day (61%) and over half refuse to even look at their bottom in the mirror (54%). The research by Andrex® goes onto reveal that this abuse is deep-rooted with 63% of the population despising their bottoms and women being the worse culprits (73%). In light of this news, Andrex® is urging people to ‘Be Kind to Your Behind’!

Renowned psychologist Judi James, “The bottom is historically and naturally an ancient symbol for attraction. Humans are not supposed to spend all day sitting down, the more we hate our bottoms and ignore them, using them primarily as a cushion for hours of sitting, the more shapeless, flatter and unattractive they are likely to become meaning our prime signaller is being diminished.”

The Andrex® survey goes onto reveal that although the bottom has always been an attraction to the opposite sex, men aren’t helping women embrace it! Out of the 56% of women who have had their bottoms pinched on a night out, 61% hated it. With 63% of the nation hating their bottoms, 60% of women wish they could alter their bottoms in size with small and peachy being the most desired shape to women (49%).

Judi James continues, “We are the first generation to have a very poor relationship with our bottoms and it could have something to do with PC thinking. Women used to employ any tool possible to exaggerate and enhance their bottoms, from the days of the bustle right up to the clinging dresses worn by the likes of Marilyn Monroe. Flat shoes, masculine-cut clothes and the fact its non-PC for guys to ogle a woman’s bottom in the street means things like the sexy bum-wiggle has all but vanished as a flirt signal.”

As a result of this neglect, a nationwide appeal to ‘Be Kind to Your Behind’ has been launched by Andrex®.

Losing Weight For The Summer

Mark — Wed, 07 May 2008 18:37:42 +0000

A Personal Product Test.

Well, I’ve decided to challenge myself to losing at least 2 stones in weight by the end August this year.

To do this I have decided initially to make a purchase of three months of the new wonder diet pill Hoodia derived from the Hoodia Gordonii cacti. I’ve chosen to use the Pure Hoodia product promoted on this blog by PureHoodia.

The container shown contains 90 tablets and you simply take one about 30 minutes before your normal breakfast, lunch and evening meal times.

I intend to keep up my vitamin intake using supplements, and take at least one helping of bran fortified cereal every day with a little semi- skimmed milk. Otherwise I intend to be eating little.

In the way of exercise, I don’t intend to be doing much for the month of May as I am sceptical if this product is all it says it is, and I intend to test it, by keeping my exercise levels the same, eating less, and just taking the product to see what progress I make in losing weight.

Currently with jeans, a T shirt, and trainers I weighed in today at 4pm at 17.5 stones. I’ll be using the same weighing machine for consistency and reporting here at the end of each week on my progress.

I hoping that this product will do exactly what it says, and make me not want to eat. Well we’ll see. Watch this space.

Thursday May 8th Update:

It’s now about 12 hours since I started the course of Pure Hoodia tablets. Interestingly I haven’t felt hungry, so that part of the claim sees to be working. I haven’t felt satisfied either from a food perspective. I still feel the desire to drink, or for a coffee, but there is no desire to add a scone, or a bit or shortbread, or a snack of any kind.

Basically the feeling is that you’ve had a meal several hours ago, and the feeling of fullness has passed and at the moment you don’t desire anything further. I’ve taken my second pill. Overall perhaps I feel slightly tired, certainly I feel lazier than normal, but I think if someone offered me a bun, my reaction would be ‘no’, because the thought of one would be that I wouldn’t enjoy it.

If you were doing any activity that required your reactions to be on top form, then perhaps it would be wise to decide to eat a small balanced food bar or similar before that activity to counteract the slight feeling of lethargy.

Saturday May 10th Update:

After a couple of days, I’m pleased to report that the feelings of hunger have not reappeared. I find as meal times come due and I take another pill, there is still no desire to want to eat. For breakfast I’ve been choosing to take a Slim Fast drink, and between 6pm and 8pm, I’ve either taken some cereal, or a small salad. Afterwards I’ve felt satisfied with that small amount. I’ve skipped lunch altogether. When I’ve chosen to eat, the enjoyment has still been there, but I’m definitely eating smaller amounts.

I’ve felt no temptation to snack on buns, chocolates, or anything else during the day, and even to a degree my desire for cups of coffee have diminished, instead preferring mildly flavoured or just plain tap water. No temptation for sweets either, though I can’t say I have been a big sweet fan anyway. Sleeping has been normal, and everything so far is progressing well. (Haven’t made any attempt to weigh myself yet).

Thursday 15 May 2008 Update (After 1 week)

Well it has been an interesting week, and I can say that the product has lived up to it’s claim. I haven’t felt hungry except for a twinge when I forgot to take a pill at a lunch time a few days ago. However that went away again quite quickly after taking it.

As meal times came round I was aware that I should be going to get something to eat. The habit was still there except I wasn’t in the mood to eat anything. I can’t say I’ve really had any side effects either. I’ve felt normal after the first few days and no longer felt lazy or lethargic. No stomach problems, and no constipation. (I’m presuming that is because I am still eating small amounts daily with a least one bowl of fibre cereal every two days).

Next of course is the question – “How has the first week gone, did you lose any weight?”

Yes, I’m please to say I’m down 1/2 stone to 17 st. I’m aware that any weight loss is supposed to be larger at the start of a diet than later, but I’m pleased as the initial progress.

Thursday 29 May 2008 Update

It’s now two weeks since my last update, and things haven’t progressed
as well as I had hoped. I’ve only managed to lose 2lbs over the two week
period!

I have been choosing to eat, but keeping to small portions of
mostly salad and healthy eating.

I have noticed this week a gradual desire to eat if I’m late by more
than 1 and half hours in taking my Hoodia pill. I guess that now
having eaten much less, my body is beginning to get hungry and
the pills are having to work harder to keep the hunger suppressed.

I’ve also decided to buy new scales just in case there is an inaccuracy
in the older set.

Tuesday 15 July 2008 Update

Well it’s been a while since I updated this post, and I suppose you have been wondering how I am getting along. I have noticed that now recently that if I do miss taking the pill around the meal time, I am tempted to slip back into old habits. Having said that I’ve held out reasonably well. I did get caught for two regular meals that were a little bigger volume wise than I would have liked… but I guess no one’s perfect

So how am I doing… I’m at 16st 10lbs. I still haven’t commenced any exercise, but overall feeling healthier than I was in May. Again not as good progress as I would have liked, considering I lost half a stone in the first week, but still heading in the right direction. Anyone who says it’s easy to lose weight is mistaken. However these Gordonii pills do help, but I wouldn’t expect dramatic weight loss with them over a short time… just a successful slow loss over a longer period. I’m still aiming at achieving the other stone before the end of August.

Monday 4th August 2008 Update

So how is it going? Well I’m stuck again at 16 st 10oz. That leaves 18lbs to lose before the end of August. In two days I’m off to Greece to participate in two weeks of the Mediterranean Diet, so I’m staying positive I’ll end up back on track. I’ll report back later in the month.

Tuesday 5 August 2008 Update

Yee Harr! The First Stone is gone! I weighed myself today and I’m down 2lbs to 16st 7oz. It’s taken me 3 months almost to the day to lose the first stone. Onwards and upwards!

Thursday 31 August 2008 Update

Well how did I do? Not as well as I had hoped. Although I was in Greece and did eat quite a bit of salad, I found because of the heat I was drinking about 2 litres of Coke every day, along with about 2 litres of fresh fruit juice, and about 2 litres of water. Of course the Coke is very high in sugar, so all in my weight stayed the same over the period and I finished up at 16st 6 oz.

However:

During the trial of the Hoodia supplement, I didn’t exercise.
I didn’t go out of my way to be pedantic about what I was eating. I just ate less, or cut back, or just said no to the temptation of something sweet, (but not all the time so the fun went out of the test).
I did nothing really different. I still had the occasional fast food, but split it in two, perhaps eating it over two dinner times, or giving half away.
I still had the odd piece of confectionery, but kept away from crisps (no more than 5 packets were eaten over the test).
I didn’t allow myself to come under any mental pressure not to eat – the tablets helped greatly in this respect by taking away the desire, but I did find if I missed taking the tablets at the right time (especially as the weeks went on), that I did experience a weak desire to eat.
Overall I feel that I didn’t suffer the ‘diet mental stress’ to stick religiously to low fat and healthy food, although to be honest I did eat more salads. As I like spicy food, I did enjoy salad dressed with lemon and pepper dressing as it gave the food a kick and in some ways made up for not eating many spicy chinese or indian meals.

So the overall result of the target period was 50% success. I lost 1 stone. However I will be continuing with the eating lifestyle and continuing hopefully to report a slow continual weight loss over the coming months.

Monday 29 September 2008 Update

The other half stone has gone – I’m now 16 stone. That’s down 1.5 stones since May 2008 (4 months).
Overall I feel this is a reasonable achievement for someone who has never made a conscious effort to actually lose the weight or stick to a rigid diet and exercise. Perhaps not as dramatic a loss as some people achieve, but I feel I should be able to continue this progress with much conscious thought.

I guess what I’m trying to say is that this is the easy way to lose weight – no real effort to it – as long as you are prepared to accept that it will take several months. I happy with the overall experiment so far, and would recommend this method to anyone. Just be sure you buy your Hoodia from a genuine source or this won’t work. If I can do this, then so can you (unless you have some sort of medical condition to prevent you). Keep watching this space…

Stress Busters – Rescue

Mark — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 08:00:51 +0000

When Murphy decides to drop you in it, (you know, what will go wrong, will go wrong when it’s most inconvenient), here is something you might find will keep your stress levels manageable.

It’s a new type of repair tape which is capable of withstanding heat, fuel, and internal pressure, so for example you can quickly and easily mend a radiator hose, or even a burst water pipe in an emergency.

I’ve ordered it myself though I’m not in any way connected with the product.

Mind you, take a look at the guy on the right in this video and how he uses a knife! I cringed right at the end of the video – I was waiting to see the blood spurt!

Here is a great little device which I have owned for several years now, and is a fantastically efficient ear cleaner and time saver.It is an ear syringe that you simply fill with water when having a hot shower and inject gently into your ears. It doesn’t hurt and you can’t over insert it into your ear, but it is much safer than poking in your ear with a cotton bud.

You can get it here: www.earclear.com

How To Choose Your Baby’s Gender

Mark — Sun, 21 Oct 2007 07:00:35 +0000

Here is something that most people don’t realise is even possible.

Most people, ( including myself), when considering starting a family, didn’t realise that it is actually possible to choose the sex of your child with a very high degree of success.

It seems that we’ve been told all along that it’s just a matter of chance and you have to take whatever comes. At least that’s what I was led to believe, and I never thought to question it.

Because of the importance of this information, I’m reproducing this post as a separate page on the site, and you will always be able to find the information quickly by looking in the right side bar under ‘Choose Your Baby’s Gender’.

It appears that that information was in fact wrong.

It would seem you can take action as a couple, and the success rate is 94.8% in favour of you having the child you want. So are you a couple dreaming of a boy, or of a girl, as your next child?

If you’re sure the answer to that question is ‘Yes’, then you need to get this book beautifully written by Ashley Spencer.

Click here to buy this book now. This will take you to Ashley’s site.
