I want great health and I don't want to take dozens of medications to keep me healthy.  I want out of the Sick Industry!  Take a few minutes to watch this video.  And decide if YOU want out of the Sick Industry! Do you want out of the Sick Industry? Note: I believe that the Pharmaceutical Industry has positively impacted all of our lives through addressing health issues. However, many of us have taken medications for most if not all health issues. This video makes some interesting points especially for Boomers. As we age we require more and more medications to maintain our health.  Is that really the Best Solution?  Doesn't it make more sense to take control and do something to positively influence your body so that the Doctor takes you off medications? After watching this video your gut is probably screaming and saying:  "there is still time isn't there, there is still time to make a change?" And in your heart you realize that this is something you really want to do; you want to change.  You may wonder about what to change and you might not know where to start making a change. First of all, I agree with you change is hard.  But, remember this:  You have done it before (made big changes) and were successful and YOU can do it again.  Attitude is everything. So here are some suggested steps that when taken seriously will POSITIVELY effect your health. If you are not currently in an active and regular exercise routine GET INTO ONE.  Be sure to get the Doctors approval, however.SURPRISE! In the majority of cases our health is not what we want it to be because we have become overweight. Consider looking at your eating habits  --  it is very likely that they will require some adjustment.  Consider a conversation with a nutritionist.Nutritional supplements should become a part of your lifestyle.  If they already are -- ask this question: What changes have I seen or experienced as a result of taking this product?  The answer may surprise you.  Not all supplements are effective.Applying these steps is where the rubber meets the road.  And I can personally testify that doing it will make a difference: I have lost 11% of my total body weight in the past 12 weeks. Starting and maintaining a new behavior has a lot to do with motivation.  So how do you keep motivated? Here is a method that will reveal your personal motivating equation. In her book "Get Motivated" Tamara Lowe shares her research on just what it takes to motivate yourself as well as others.  Here are three questions she asks everyone she encounters: : Do you need to be competitive or cooperative?Do you prefer constancy or variety?Which would make you feel more valued: Appreciation without financial bonus or a bonus without appreciation.For your unique motivation equation answer the three questions above recording your "yes" answers in the chart below.  Remember, that your answer is what you are most like.  Once you have determined your combination, begin implementing those types of behaviors. Motivation Yes No Competitive Cooperative X Constancy Variety X Appreciation without a bonus Bonus and no appreciation X For example, the choices indicated in the table above show that this person is motivated by a cooperative environment (i.e., team player) they want the situation to be variable (i.e. changing) and for a reward they prefer a bonus. Let's apply this unique equation to motivate yourself to work out: Work with another person, get a regular partner or get a trainer.A workout with variety, Mon, Wed, Fri - do weights and on Tue, Thur, Sat do some type of cardio exercise (i.e., elliptical trainer, riding bikes, etc.)The Bonus here would not be financial, but - weight loss, feeling better, better lab results, and the removal of  some medications with the Docs approval all would be a huge bonus.Here is what this article addressed: The pharmaceutical industry has made significant contributions to the overall health picture in America.  However, many people have become dependent on that industry to manage their health. We are responsible for our own health,  we have to CONTRIBUTE to being healthy by losing weight, eating correctly, getting exercise and finding additional nutrition that really supports our health.We discussed one method to identify what motivates you.  Get motivated!You can DO this!For a Free Report of results from a Double Blind Study measuring the effectiveness of Nutritional Supplements fill in form below: .link,.signupframe { color: #226699; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } .link { text-decoration: none; } .signupframe { border: 1px solid #000000; background: #ffffff; } * Email * First Name * = Required Field var icpForm10060 = document.getElementById('icpsignup10060');if (document.location.protocol === "https:") icpForm10060.action = "https://app.icontact.com/icp/signup.php";function verifyRequired10060() { if (icpForm10060["fields_email"].value == "") { icpForm10060["fields_email"].focus(); alert("The Email field is required."); return false; } if (icpForm10060["fields_fname"].value == "") { icpForm10060["fields_fname"].focus(); alert("The First Name field is required."); return false; }return true;} Email Marketing You Can Trust To your Boomer Health - 2 months ago

The great trade is over and has come to a screeching halt. But you still can take advantage of trading away a clunker for results, more about that in a minute. Do you recall that several months ago our government ran a program where if you traded your old gas guzzler for a new shiny fuel efficient car the government would provide $4500 towards the purchase of a new fuel efficient car? Well it seems the program was a success. In fact, the program was extended and again the monies were all used. Here is the point, there are at least two benefits for removing inefficient gas guzzlers from our highways: less fuel consumption resulting in savings for the consumer less smog in our atmosphere and a cleaner more enjoyable environment.A good thing for everyone. The benefits are far reaching and will likely make a huge difference for our children and grandchildren. So here is how you can take advantage trading Clunkers for Cash.

We supplement because: mom said to do itadvertisers are constantly selling the idea and in some cases our doctors encourage us to take vitamins.I call this Cash for Clunker Supplements.

It has now been 3 years and by BP readings remain consistent in the low 100's/low 70's. That is a cash health supplement for sure. And here is the best news: there are literally 1000's more stories just like this one. You too can reap the health benefits from consuming this product. You can trade your cash for clunker vitamins into a cash supplement for health. It will be worth a lot more to you than taking your usual vitamins.

Yes, I am a boomer and well I am beginning to experience that memory thing, ah what is it again? According to  University of Illinois psychology Professor Art Kramer, "the brain is always changing and by midlife, there is less turnover of new neurons ... the production of chemical messengers in the brain called neurotransmitters also slows down."  Well that is a relief, we are just slowing down and I say thank God this is a natural occurrence and not something we Boomers need to worry about.  But we can do something about it.  Now that is the ticket. The Professors said the that there are actions we can take to improve our memories and of course they have to do with lifestyle changes.  The old ways have caught up to us and "...we have to eliminate our high-fat diets,consumption of  too much alcohol, lack of exercise and a high-stress lifestyle.  All of which  can all affect your cognitive fitness down the road." So to get a sharper memory:  Here are some tips from experts that can do for your memory what crunches can do for your abs: Eat a healthful diet to feed your brain as well as the rest of your body. Get plenty of aerobic exercise, as long as your doctor approves. Your brain needs a challenge, so try to learn something new every day. Read. Do crossword puzzles. Learn a new hobby. Take a different route home. Try using your other hand to hold your toothbrush. Don't isolate yourself. Maintain social contacts and regular conversation with others. As much as you can, reduce your stress load. Create an image in your mind of something you want to remember. Or try associating something you want to remember with something you already know. Use a sound, such as a kitchen timer, to help you remember something, Arrange things in your home to jog your memory. Keys, for example, can go in the refrigerator on top of your lunch bag. Try verbal cues to make yourself less anxious about the things you might forget, like turning off the stove. Try saying out loud a few times: I turned off the stove. I won't need to go back and check it again. Make a list of what you need to do, and take notes of things you need to remember. Repeat names in conversations. Do things when you remember them, instead of putting them off. Avoid multitasking. Identify places for important items and always keep them in the same place. If you find yourself becoming increasingly forgetful, see your doctor. Sometimes memory loss is the result of physical problems that need medical attention.
