Healthy, full of natural nutrition food is integral part of healthy and happy lifestyle. Physical activity is another very important part of our life as well.   

Strength Training Will Give More Active Life Expectancy

People are now living longer. This is a gift of 20th-century science, medicine and technology with the discoveries of many treatments for life threatening diseases all contributing to us staying alive longer. Science is continuing to deliver deep insights into aging, which challenge the outdated and obsolete ideas with which most of us grew up.

A key element of the traditional view of aging has been the belief that the processes leading to weakness, frailty, disease, disability and death were somehow programmed into us as a fixed feature of our biological make-up. Old age has been seen as a time of loss, of strength, of health, of hair, of teeth, of vigor, of brain power and of joy.

We have previously accepted all of these negative aspects of aging with shrug or a sigh after all we have been programmed by society to "take it easy" and "slow down" ready for the rocking chair.

Now things are changing, we are discovering that with this great gift of living longer we have also the opportunity to live these years in good health. Health is not just the absence of disease or illness; it is living with maximal functional capacity in all of our body and mind systems.

Taking an active role in our own health is a much better option than sitting around waiting for some pill to prevent this or that or save your life. We can do a lot ourselves to improve our chances of healthier aging. After all aging is the result of a build up of damage to our bodies’ cells. It takes a long time for that damage to get to a level where it may harm us in the form of disease and can prove our undoing.

To delay or avoid disease we now know that vigorous physical activity really does make a difference – not only for how long we live but for how long we live a healthy life. We need to make sure we make the right choices in our exercise habits over the course of our life to build up our health. This course of action will increase what is known as "active life expectancy" – the time of advancing years free from disability as well as promoting longevity. With each advancing year it becomes progressively more important to exercise on a very regular basis.

But not any old exercise will do, misleading information about what type of exercise is correct is everywhere from magazines, media and the internet. People that have never had any formal exercise training or experience are suddenly spouting about how just a little bit of exercise like a 30 minute walk is all you need to do to stay healthy.

The sad part of this is that they are believed with people thinking that gardening or walking is enough; therefore they are losing the opportunity to enjoy the many benefits a proper exercise program will provide. To be effective in managing health the exercise program must contain a minimum of 60% of strength training exercise. This will maintain and increase muscle tissue and bone density and reduce and manage any excess body fat which reduces the risk of heart disease and diabetes.

Additional benefits that you will enjoy are an enhanced immune system, reduced stress, a quick thinking mind, a sharper attitude and a greater sensation of health. When you are engaged with your exercise program you also feel more useful and productive which adds to a better quality of life.

Don’t let your body give out on you. We only get one shot on this merry go round of life, so we must squeeze every bit of living out of the one body we get issued with.

Longevity Now Review – Will it Help You to Live Longer and Better?

Nothing matters if you do not have good health. You could have millions of dollars in the bank, an amazing job or business, great family relationships and many friends, but if your body is not well, all the money, friends or love in the world will not make much of a difference.

David Wolfe is a world renowned expert on health and nutrition. He knows the causes of the most threatening diseases and exactly what can be done to avoid them. Our medical society traditionally relied on treating the symptoms with medicines and drugs.

But, wouldn’t it be great to not get symptoms in the first place? The Longevity Now program, being released by David Wolfe, provides proven methods and step by step instructions for anyone to add years to their lives and life to their years.

Longevity is the goal of having not only a longer life but a high quality of life. The problem has been that most people never focused on preventive and affirmative programs for remaining healthy to begin with. But this really is the best solution for anyone.

THE SECRET INGREDIENTS OF THE LONGEVITY NOW PROGRAM

EASY AND FUN: Mr. Wolfe has created a revolutionary program which makes it not only easy but also fun to follow a program that will increase your vitality, energy and overall health.

STEP BY STEP: You will be given step by step instructions on what to do in your daily life in order to see incredible changes in your energy and strength.

SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATIONS: If you have never heard Wolfe speak, you are missing out. His research and the studies he is involved with are truly cutting edge. You will get a full understanding of why the methods he teaches work.

ONGOING SUPPORT AND INFORMATION: Because of the baby boomer phenomenon, millions of dollars are going into research and developments of what works best to not only create optimal health but also to heal pains and diseases. In the Longevity Now Program, you will receive cutting edge information as it comes in.

When it comes to your health, do not put off what you can do today to live longer and ensure that you have the physical, intellectual and emotional health to have the experiences you want in life.

There really are secrets to longevity. And there is a lot of false information out there. But David Wolfe is a credible expert, author and educator in this important area and he is at the forefront of the quest to make longevity an integral part of life.

The Cacao Experience

One thing that I’ve gotten into in the past several months is raw chocolate or cacao pronounced Ka(cow)- yes, identical to our dearly beloved friends who produce for us in plentiful supply our daily servings of milk! Cacao is the nut from which all chocolate is made; so however you eat your chocolate in whatever form from whatever source whether it be a mars bar a snickers or something of higher quality like sacred heart or green&blacks it all comes from the cacao bean.

This bean which is botanically classified as a nut comes from the fruit of the cacao tree and is known as theobroma cacao; the literal translation of which being: food of the gods! Unfortunately by the time you get your tasty bar of chocolate it has been processed so much that it barely resembles the quality or taste of the original food. Chocolate in it’s original state is an excellent source of magnesium and chromium which according to Nutrition Expert David "Avocado" Wolfe are the two main major mineral deficiencies right now in America…

And interestingly enough with the high rate of heart related deaths throughout the world and with so many people eating chocolate bars it kind of makes one wonder what happened to the goodies inherent in the original food. Our heart and brain thrive on magnesium which make chocolate great food for the soul. It is the most chemically complex food known with over 300 chemicals and contains significant sources of PEA (Phenylethylamine) and anandamide. The former also known as the love chemical and the latter taken from the sanskrit ananda, meaning bliss, and therefore known as the bliss chemical!

The cacao fruit can yield anything from twenty to fifty beans and is the highest source of antioxidants known to man according to ORAC (Oxygen Radical Advanced Capacity) ratings in the US. (If interested please refer to wikipedia for a definitions of ORAC and antioxidants)

My own experiences of eating chocolate tell me that it’s a great feel good food which is very stimulating and produces a mild euphoria. It lifts ones spirits and is also one of the best tasting foods. It’s also a natural appetite suppressant and laxative. By introducing raw cacao into your diet each day either in the form of a smoothie or as a snack you will be on your way to having the best day ever. Here are a few ideas for eating your chocolate raw:

Small Handful of the raw nibs and goji berries with some
raw honey or agave syrup.

Cacao Smoothie:-

Approx 300-400 ml of water
24 Almonds
3 Dates
2-4 tbsp of cacao nibs/powder
1-2 tbsp of coconut butter
Honey or Agave to sweeten
1 tsp of cinammon
1/2 tsp of nutmeg

The cacoa smoothie can become an exciting way of getting all your daily nutrients. Ingredients like Cashews, Cayenne, Berries, Cherries, Bee pollen, Aloe Vera, Camu Camu, Goji, Maca and Lucuma can all be added to create wonderfully nutritious and stimulating drinks that will have you thinking

"I never knew eating healthy could taste so good"

You can even make shockingly good mochas. You can use herbal teas as a base for that extra nutritional component and play around with it to see what works for you. Best to keep it simple to begin with and then progress from there!

Technorati Tags: cacao smoothie, david "avocado" wolfe, the cacao experience, two main major mineral deficiencies

David "Avocado" Wolfe has written many books and created few programs on raw food, nutrition, raw food diet, lifestyle and longevity. In this interview he talks about his new book.

David Wolfe Shares Highlights of His New Book – Superfoods – Food …

Lenette: So, what was your biggest discovery in the research of your newest book, "Superfoods: The Food and Medicine of the Future"?

David: I think it has to do with phycocyanin, the blue pigment that’s in Spirulina and blue-green algae. The research that I stumbled across when I was researching that part of the book was completely mind-bending. Basically what the blue pigment does is ramp up all your stem cell production, so if you take something like blue-green algae or an extract of it like these phycocyanin products that are out there right now, even a few that are made out of Spirulina, and then you take something that’s really strong in building your immune system, like medicinal mushrooms, and you do that as a one-two punch, it’s really powerful how quickly you can ramp up your immune response. I think that was one of the things that I kind of stumbled across and then I was just playing with it, and it just became an awesome adjunct to what I am doing. It’s just amazing.

Lenette: Wow. So you’re combining the two now? When you’re taking one, you’re taking the other?

David:Right. Exactly. And the reason why is because phycocyanin, the blue pigments of algae, is the original pigment that was on the Earth a billion years ago or however many billion years ago algae were dominating the Earth. The Sun was actually putting out most of its energy in the blue spectrum instead of the green, and therefore the plants were blue. Algae was blue. There are still residues of those blue pigments. If you look into nature and you look closely, you’ll see it. When you take in those blue pigments, instead of having that effect of rebuilding your blood like chlorophyll does, this has an effect of rebuilding your stem cells or rejuvenating you. If you couple that with something like medicinal mushrooms, like Reishi mushroom and its ability to rebuild your immune system, you have this ejection of stem cell colonies out of the bone marrow, and those get turned into immune system weapon cells like N-K cells, T-fighter cells, macrophages. All those things can be formed out of the stem cells and it can cause a huge jump in your immunity. It’s really powerful.

Sounds like a little [science] discovery, right? I’m so into superfoods. It’s my genre, but I take for granted some of the simpler things like the power of marine phytoplankton and just what that is alone is totally ridiculous. We went off on a little tangent, but I could go off on a lot of things that came up from this book.

Lenette: Awesome. What chapter are you most proud of in the book?

David:Oh, that’s a good question. I’ll tell you what I really liked finding. I liked finding, in the Marine Phytoplankton chapter, there’s a whole section on how marine phytoplankton form sulfur, and then the sulfur gets evaporated up into the atmosphere and forms clouds. That’s how the marine phytoplankton protects itself in the summertime from being over-oxidized. That little section of that chapter was really, really interesting. Let me give you another analogy to that. As spring comes in, the trees will put leaves on to block the sun so that it doesn’t overheat the ground, it doesn’t burn the tree or the bark up. The way that algae does it in the ocean, or phytoplankton or microalgae, is it will actually release sulfur, secrete sulfur, into the ocean water and then that goes up and forms clouds that protect the algae in the middle of the summer to protect the algae from being hit by too much radiation. It’s a very interesting cycle, and that was all figured out in the last 50 years. It’s a closed cycle, meaning the stronger the radiation, the more sulfur the microalgae will release and the more that will protect the oceans from excessive sunlight or radiation. That is the basis of our entire weather system on the whole planet.

Lenette: Wow. In hearing the benefits and properties in marine phytoplankton, I have never heard sulphur. But it actually does have sulfur in it? So it’s good for hair, skin and nails?

David:Yes. Just like Spirulina and blue-green algae to a significant degree as well are really rich in sulphur. So is hemp seed. There’s another little trick in there. If you take something like MSM and you mix it with marine phytoplankton, there’s a very interesting synergy there. MSM, or sulfur, comes into existence in algae as a substance called DMS. It’s oxidized into a substance called DMSO and then evaporates off into the clouds.

Lenette: What is your longer definition of "superfoods" now and how has it really evolved for you in the past decade?

David:One of the things about superfoods is that they are plant-based so that they are controllable in terms of contamination. Animal foods; we don’t know what kind of water those animals are drinking. We have no idea what kind of conditions they’re in. I knock out things like salmon, or things that are thrown into the category of superfoods as superficial. We go to something that’s a plant. We go to something that is both a food and a medicine, so it has medicinal/herbal components. It also has food/caloric component. We also go to food that has 20 different tricks under its sleeve, not just two or three like a regular raw food would have. A good example of that is the Goji berry. Goji berry has its medicinal side which is like polysaccharide content of its sugars. Anywhere from 35-50% of the total sugar of the Goji berry is actually a very long-chain sugar that has very powerful immune system qualities. The other side of the Goji berry is it’s nutritive. It’s a complete protein source so it’s actually like fuel and it has good calorie value. If we go deeper, we find it’s a secretagogue. It helps to release Human Growth Hormone; it’s the only food to ever be shown to do that. It’s one of the highest antioxidant foods in the world. It contains substances which flip around the aging process, that help us produce more hormones, not just human growth hormones, but all hormones. It just goes on like that. We could continue to look at that. Spinach doesn’t have all that. Spinach is just like one thing, or broccoli. People say, "How come you don’t talk about broccoli?" and it’s like, "Where were you those 10 years I was talking about broccoli?"

Lenette: What are a few of the superfoods covered in your book that might be new even to people who already incorporate superfoods into their lifestyle?

David: Why don’t I just give a general list of them all? Some people are new to the information. Goji berry, Cacao-raw chocolate, maca, blue-green algae, Spirulina, marine phytoplankton, Chlorella, bee pollen, honey, propylis, royal jelly, yacon root products, Noni, Aloe vera, kelp, hemp seed, Acai, camu camu berry. That’s about it. A good rundown of some of the superfoods in that book that are covered pretty in-depth.

Lenette: There’s nothing in it coming from left field or right field. Those all seem pretty familiar to me. I know you’ve talked about a lot of those.

David: If you’re into live food and you’ve been paying attention to what’s going on, then it will fit right in to what you’ve been hearing about. There’s nothing completely out of left field in there.

Lenette: It seems like so many of these superfoods work synergistically with each other. Is there a way that you have laid it out, or is there an easy way for us to remember what to take with what else?

David: I kind of represent the antithesis of the food-combining theory. What I actually recommend is that you play around with the stuff with total fun and joy in your heart. Just play around with it the way you played around with food when you were a kid. Then you find out that you could just throw all this stuff into a smoothie into certain combinations that are right for you. For example, I’ll do Spirulina in the summer or if I’m in the tropics, but I don’t really do Spirulina when I’m in the temperate climates of the world. It’s more of a tropical algae. Blue-green algae, however, or marine phytoplankton are cold weather types of plants or superfoods. I would do those more in the northern climates. When you’re mixing together, I think some review of the climate of where you are, your altitude, the overall time of the season, plays a little bit of a factor in what you should mix together. Other than that, it’s kind of a free-for-all.

Lenette: Okay. Which chapter gave you the most trouble in gathering the research numbers for?

David:That’s a good question. Let me think about that. Probably Aloe vera. Surprisingly Aloe vera had some of the least amount of material out there that I was able to get access to. That really surprised me because with the popularity of Aloe out there and all the different uses that there are for this amazing superfood and how little information and how few books have been written about Aloe vera, that was shocking.

Lenette: It seems like it’s hard to get really solid numbers for raw foods and superfoods, even recommended daily allowance, whatever that even means. I remember hearing you at one of your lectures talk about you went and got your Goji berries tested by three different people trying to get the vitamin A percentage and they each came back with completely different numbers. And you were kind of over it.

David:And even Vitamin C. There is no Vitamin C in a dried Goji berry. Robert Young, of Young’s Living Essential Oils, had put out these statements that the Goji berry had all this Vitamin C in it and this and that. Then you come to find out later that actually that’s not true at all. So there is a lot of misinformation like that out there all over the internet. I feel like with this book "Superfoods" that I’ve kind of distilled and gotten rid of all those myths. Like it just makes it real clear what each food does, what’s in it, and it’s very well scientifically backed. In the back of the book there are all these scientific charts, for example what’s in a Goji berry, what’s the protein, what’s the breakdown of the carotenes, what’s the content of the antioxidants, all that stuff for every superfood.
