Tom Tierney and DR J Jacques on AG Immune

http://whybodywise.blogspot.com/2013/02/tom-tierney-and-dr-jacques-on-ag-immune.html

I just did the Math!!!

I just did the Math! 

I am sitting here at my computer and 

I am adding up the years 

I have been CANCER FREE!    .

36  years!!

And I look at what I have done to be in the position? 

I purposed to 

eat right, 
get plenty of exercise and 
take Excellent Supplements.

 .

And then the question is...

How long have you been on Excellent Supplements?

I did the Math!

15+ years!!!

I have to say, every sense I got on these Excellent Supplements, 

My health has GREATLY Improved. 

When I discovered Body Wise I was in my 40's and sick and tired of being sick and tired,  

now at 59, 

I have more energy than most 

 Go ahead....

Ask me how your can feel the same...

more energy, less lbs, anti aging!

 

Really? Genetics?

Summer 2013      59 years young 

When I think that our health agenda is inherited... I think, "Wow! am I glad I got  parents with good genes..." but even in saying that, I know that "I" rule my own good health...

I was the first person in my family with cancer(Thyroid Cancer)...way back in the 70's, recovered, and forget about it until it is all the talk...and then in the 80's, my sister died of Germ Cell Cancer...  A very sad death...
So I sit here, 35 years past cancer with a sister that died at the young 35... None related...

My goal has always been to prevent illness...and I was and I still am very aware about stress, poor nutrition and a lack of exercise which can kill your immune system...  Instead, my habit is to re-framing my stress in the very stressful time, stay nourished on fresh non-processed food as well as my "super-dooper vitamins" and staying mobile, I walk  everywhere I can..  I stay aware that if I am responsible for my future good health. (FYI, My sister had the same parents with "good genes")

Yes, I have had stressful and challenging times but in these challenging times I remember, re-frame and create stress relief activities.,...such as, Surround myself with FUNNY people because...Laughter is good for your Immune System and well as your Soul.

I have not had any health issues for many many years... Laughter is my favorite language, Body Wise is my favorite "super-dooper vitamin" and living in Carlsbad is my favorite place to stay active.

It is time for you too to stay healthy!!!  

Lets grow old gracefully and in GREAT HEALTH!

Healthy After Cancer via the Power of Prevention: ARE YOU VITAMINS MANUFACTURED TO THIS QUALITY?

Healthy After Cancer via the Power of Prevention: ARE YOU VITAMINS MANUFACTURED TO THIS QUALITY?: Much of what makes a great nutritional supplement is what goes on behind the scenes in manufacturing. This includes careful consideratio...

Prevention.....

Prevention....Shall I say more...?

We are in the year 2012...and there are still people that dont know that certain cooking items are not healthy..  such as microwaving..  There is plenty of research to prove this point...search and you will see... 

Lets look at it logicly... you boil veggies, the longer you boil, the more nutritients you loose..  So, do you thing maybe if you put food in the little box and send Radiation to your food, what do you think is left...  Fiber maybe, but certainly not Nutrition. 

So, think about it...should you be walking away from the microwave?  YES! Walk away!!! 

The Weight Loss Wars

It is remarkable...  Obesity on the rise and yet, every other commercial is about weight loss.  And now, Celebrities are getting in the game.   So many commercials!

If you are looking for a program, how do you choose? 

My suggestions:

1. Do your research prior to joining a plan.. quality of products is very important
2. Be sure it fits into your day to day life..  It is something you can implement daily.
3. Make sure it is not a DIET but rather a LIFESTYLE plan...  Diets don't work!  Altering habits do!
4. Must eat food....  but the right foods ~ Clean Food..   
5. Exercise, at least 15 min a day is encouraged
6. Water should also be encouraged
7. No stimulants or drugs.
8. Be sure you know people who have lost weight and have kept it off for several years.  No YO YO Diets!

If you are one of the many Americans needing to drop more than 25lbs, keep in mind...  it took time to get to where you are, it takes a period of time to change a habit. They say it takes 28 days to change a habit or a taste bud...  


You can reverse cravings...  You can burn inches..  The first step is taking a first step..  Put on a Pedometer and work at  increasing you steps...  to 8K to 10K steps daily. 

Movement, Water, Clean food, and Support are the keys.. 


If you are looking for support, I have private support group on Facebook, Fit and Fabulous....  a great place to start.

Remember...  The first step to weight loss is taking the first step... Get moving!

Healthy Living to you...  and remember....
Prevention isn't Expensive, it is Priceless!

Is Healthy Food really more expensive than Junk food?

That question perplexes me...  I hear all the time......
."it cost too much to eat healthy!"  Okay! I might agree if you said,
"it cost too much to eat Organic!" 
But, to eat fresh food that fuels you...that is less expensive than Junk food... 
Let me explain....
When you eat junk food...your body burns it very quickly..something like news paper over a log to keep you warm- the paper burns fast and then the fire is out.  On the other hand...the log burns long and slow putting out heat.  That is how you want to eat, eat food that takes a long time to burn..the longer it takes to burn, the longer time between hunger pains. 
So as you can see... 

Fast food = Fast burn.  Fresh food = Good fuel. 

Step away from the Junk food...

Invest in the health of you and your family...

it will take you through a lifetime.

How much does it cost?

The other day I was in a coffee house... after sharing a little bit about Body Wise one of the gentlemen asked, "How much do you spend a month?"  

The next day as I was thinking about that conversation and the gentleman who could use some nutritional support, I thought..."How much do you spent a month on coffee?"  My guess is: A lot more than I spend on vitamins.

When I think about where we spend our money why not budget our  vitamins into the household expenses under Food? Medical? whatever makes sense for your budget.  I know I prefer to be healthy and spend my money on prevention rather than a new pair of shoes.   If I had a choice to feel excellent or have a wonderful new pair of shoes...I would take the feeling excellent any day.

For me, I have found the answer for excellent health...Excellent Vitamin supplements-14 years and counting...   I take the very best!  Ask me about them... 

Think about where you are investing everyday... Something to think about.

DON'T FALL FOR GIMMICKS...

January 6, 2011

DON'T FALL FOR GIMMICKS

The Internet and television are currently exploding with commercials advertising exercise equipment.  Marketing departments know that many 2011 New Year's resolutions are about exercising more.  This brings out the credit cards from many people.  Whether it is the core lounger, sauna belt, ab stimulator, or (my favorite) the neckline slimmer, they are all advertised as "miracle discoveries" that eliminate the need for working out to lose weight or toning up.  Even though our brain tells us that this is surely a gimmick, millions of dollars are spent on these easy, time-saving solutions.  To be fair, some of the advertised exercise equipment may not be completely worthless (like the shake weight or mini-stepper) IF they are used in combination with other more vigorous exercise routines.  Nevertheless, it is the claims that accompany many of these implements that make utter nonsense:  "FIRM ARMS IN ONLY 2 MINUTES A DAY."  "VIBRATE YOUR WAY TO A WHOLE NEW LIFE."  "ROCK HARD ABS WITH NO SWEAT."  "HAVE A DREAM BODY IN ONLY 6 MINUTES A DAY."  As I watch the the models demonstrating these items I wonder.... did they get their bodies in only 6 minutes per day using the "Body Vibrator"! 

....I have however used the Total Gym...I loved it!  No room for one now or I would get another and get on it.  You do sweat and raise your pulse on The Total Gym...I also like the Ab-roller... it makes sense to me but again I have no room for it.  So, I pull out my trampoline and workout during a full  TV show...  I jump, walk, jog and do passive Isometrics on my trampoline. I love it!( Especially when it is too cool outside to get outside)

The beautiful great outdoor...a good walk is always a desired way to stay healthy and burn some LBS.  Stretch, Water, Deep Breathing and ENJOY the Great Outdoors...Walking, plenty of water and Body Wise is exactly how I burned off two dress sizes and got back into the body of my young adulthood.
YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY!


When it comes to what we eat....lets be smart about it...

Below I have posted some items I found on WebMD. What happened to the days when what we ate made sense? Raw and fresh fruits and veggies.. Fresh meats from the Meat Market...Fish from the Fish Market.. No bagged foods...no processed foods...no foods with dies and additives...and don't get me started on artificial sweeteners.

Lets just be Smart about it!

The Goal Is Weight Loss

High-protein diets take a page from the low-carb craze. The goal is to lose weight by eating more protein-packed foods, which often means consuming fewer carbohydrates. The portion of total calories derived from protein is what defines a high-protein diet. In a typical diet 10%-15% of daily calories come from protein. In a high-protein diet, this number can be as high as 30%-50%.

What Is a Gluten-Free Diet?

Before tackling the gluten-free diet, let’s get to know our culprit. Gluten is a specific type of protein, but one you won’t find in meat or eggs. Instead gluten is found in wheat, rye, and barley. Going gluten-free means avoiding these grains. A gluten-free diet is essential for most people with gluten allergies or celiac disease, a condition which causes intestinal damage when gluten is eaten.

Sodium: A Good Thing...in Moderation

We may malign the salt shaker, but sodium plays an important role in maintaining the body's fluid balance. It’s essential for muscles and nerves to function properly. But most of us consume too much of it. FDA guidelines call for less than 2,400 mg of sodium per day -- about 1 teaspoon of table salt. Surprisingly, most of our salt intake doesn’t come from the salt shaker; it’s hidden in many of the foods we buy at the grocery store.

Cancer Free after 30 years..

The other day I was thinking... Who else is out there that has been cancer free for more than 20 years..better yet, 30 years?

I believer there are more stories out there somewhere... Sense I have been cancer free for more than 30 years I thought it would be interesting to hear stories of others that have been cancer free for as long as I have.

My Cancer was Thyroid Cancer, pretty intense... This was in 1976; I had just turned 23 years old 1 week prior to the diagnosis - Cancer was not common at all among younger people..shocking for the time..

I am looking for stories of others who have lived healthy after cancer. Who do you know?

Please help with getting the word out. I would like to hear from others.

Thank you... Staying healthy after Cancer.

Am I CRAZY?

There was a day, or should I say..a couple of years, where I felt like I was going Crazy! I was emotional, I could laugh and cry in the same breath, I put weight on and if I was not depressed due to Hormones, I was depressed because I was "FAT!"
And then realized that I was Hypo-Thyroid! Ok! Now what??? I did my homework, got educated and went after it.. I got off the Synthetic Thyroid(on it for only 2 years) and back onto the Natural Thyroid.. I learned that when you do not have a Thyroid, the Synthetic did not work...and it didn't. I also incorporated an smart and aggressive Nutrition program..I found a supplement that works! With the correct Thyroid medication, Supplements and education, I found the solution and got results.

I had Thyroid Cancer at 23 years old, was on Natural for 19 years, the doctors put me on a Synthetic which threw me into Hypothyroid, and leveled out again when I went back on the Natural form of Thyroid. It has now been 33 years after cancer...

Hypothyroidism

When the thyroid gland is under-active, improperly formed at birth, surgically removed all or in part, or becomes incapable of producing enough thyroid hormone, a person is said to be hypothyroid. One of the most common causes of hypothyroidism is the autoimmune disease called Hashimoto's disease, in which antibodies gradually target the thyroid and destroy its ability to produce thyroid hormone.

Symptoms of hypothyroidism usually go along with a slowdown in metabolism, and can include fatigue, weight gain, and depression, among others.

* The Hypothyroidism Risks/Symptoms Checklist reviews the key symptoms.
* Quiz: Could You Be Hypothyroid? is a self-test to help you identify risks and symptoms.
http://thyroid.about.com/library/links/blthyroid.htm

I am glad to say, I lost the weight, leveled out my hormones and got back to my normal active lifestyle 12 years ago..... Thankfully!

My message? When one behaves like they are Crazy, they just might be Hormonal...There are things you can do and you can go back to living a normal life. Please feel free to post any questions.

Here is to being level....

Fear NOT Weight Loss!

The Obesity Epidemic

More than one third of U.S. adults—more than 72 million people—and 16% of U.S. children are obese. Since 1980, obesity rates for adults have doubled and rates for children have tripled. Obesity rates among all groups in society—irrespective of age, sex, race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, education level, or geographic region—have increased markedly.

Health Consequences of Obesity

Obesity has physical, psychological, and social consequences in adults and children. Children and adolescents are developing obesity-related diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, that were once seen only in adults. Obese children are more likely to have risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including high cholesterol levels, high blood pressure, and abnormal glucose tolerance. One study of 5- to 17-year-olds found that 70% of obese children had at least one risk factor for cardiovascular disease and 39% of obese children had at least two risk factors.

Obesity is Costly

• In 2000, obesity-related health care costs totaled an estimated $117 billion.

• Between 1987 and 2001, diseases associated with obesity account for 27% of the increases in medical costs.

• Medical expenditures for obese workers, depending on severity of obesity and sex, are between 29%–117% greater than expenditures for workers with normal weight.

• From 1979–1981 to 1997–1999, annual hospital costs related to obesity among children and adolescents increased, rising from $35 million to $127 million.

These Statistics are startling... But there is good news...We can reverse these statistics.

Fear NOT Weight Loss!

Dare to be Lean...with the Dare to be Lean Challenge... I look forward to hearing from you.....

Dare to be lean?

I heard a statistic this week end....there are more malnourished people than ever before and obesity is on the rise.. beyond what anyone could ever imagine...

Being there are more vitamin companies than ever and the amount of weight loss products more than ever..

How could that be?

My thought???

The products out there are Not EFFECTIVE!

Read my "How to buy the right multi vitamin"

I take a very effective vitamin and I lost weight on these products...

EFFECTIVE!!!

Question?

If you had the choice to prevent illness..Would you?

Far too many people prefer treatment and antibiotics..not helping support their immune system...

I, as a stubborn person, prefer prevention...No Illness is my goal.. No more chronic Sinus Infections for more than 10 years now...after more than 30 years of suffering.

Take care of your Immune System and it will take care of you!
