The Prostate, What YOU Don't Know Could Kill You! by Jeff Cuckson Prostate cancer is a major killer of men! How is it then that in a poll 96% of men knew nothing at all about the prostate gland. Prostate Cancer is the most common diagnosed cancer in the USA and UK. Next to lung cancer it is the second leading cause of cancer death in men in the USA. Women know more about men's health than men do themselves and that's a fact. Why is that? Is it because we find it hard to discuss these things? Is it because it's not macho! From the time that we are young, we ar ... Resolve by Jackie Stanley Resolve + Enthusiasm = Power Think for a moment about the highest mountain you ever climbed, the deepest valley you ever crossed, or the longest river you ever had to swim. Perhaps it was healing a relationship with an estranged loved one, closing a big deal at work, overcoming an addiction, surviving an illness, succeeding against the odds or making what seemed like an impossible dream come true. I imagine that there were moments in the process when you felt weak, became convinced you could go ...

Sounds like the sort of claims someone standing on a soapbox trying to sell snake oil would make... but SURPRISE... these statements are coming from the mainstream... and the results are from simple natural multi-vitamins NOT pharmaceutical drugs! But that is not all! It is now being said that if everyone over 65 took a multi every day that the ... TAKING THE FEAR OUT OF THE HYPNOTIC TRANCE by Christine Hunter Mention the word “Hypnosis” to someone and the chances are you will get one of three very different reactions: intense curiosity, nervousness, or disdainful skepticism. But the truth is hypnosis is widely used today not just in medicine but also by top sports performers, business experts, and those in the media to boost their performance and mental focus. Despite this, many members of the public still view hypnosis with fear and suspicion especially when the hypnotist talks about putting the cli ... Rediscovering Protein - Corrective Action in the American Diet by Protica Nutritional Research Protein must be a part of a healthy diet for a simple reason: it is essential for life. Every single cell in the human body -- including bones, blood, skin, chemicals, and enzymes -- depend on protein for effective operation.[i] Yet while Americans are more health-conscious than ever before, the national health dialogue continues to be dominated by a cynical theme: malnutrition. Many Americans are suffering the ill-health effects of a diet that is too high in saturated fat[ii], carbohydrates[iii ... Eating Healthy in a Time-Starved World by Protica Nutritional Research Americans are literally running out of time. Achieving a work-life balance, which is still a luxury for tens of millions of working parents, has been overtaken by an even greater demand: a work-life-nutrition balance. Unfortunately, this increasing demand for nutrition has not been accompanied by a useful strategy that enables people to reclaim time from their harried lives. The result of this dilemma has been an additional layer of stress applied on top of an already stressful life. This has f ... Unchaining Yourself from an Unhealthy Food Addiction by Protica Nutritional Research The cry of “I have no willpower!” often emerges from the consumers who jokingly surrender to their lack of will when it comes to eating something clearly unhealthy. However, scientific nutritional research has identified that something much more serious – much more dangerous – is often at work here. For many people, what they perceive as a harmless lack of willpower is actually an addiction an addiction to chemicals that the brain secretes in response to stimulation by certain foods, such as cho ... Protein - The Denominator Customary to All Diets by Protica Nutritional Research The Human Body is in a constant flux with the environment. Matter and molecules flow in and out, casting themselves into its complexities. Although the body lends them structure, it is the intake—the diet—that decides its physique. To control what goes in a diet is to choose what stays inside. Dietary decisions reflect an awareness of metabolism and the nutrients needed to modify it. There may be a host of diets purported for each activity and illness. However, the one macronutrient that is inva ... The Danger of Curbing Hunger Artificially by Protica Nutritional Research Unhealthy eating is a harmful problem in America, and contrary to a very outdated perception, this harm is not limited to those who suffer from obesity[1]. In reality, according to the Directors of Health Promotion and Education, the majority of Americans exhibit unhealthy eating habits, with just over one in four women and only one in five men claiming to eat the minimum five daily servings of vegetables and fruits[i]. In response to this growing wave of American malnutrition, a number of nutri ... Finding the Elusive "Complete" Protein Source by Protica Nutritional Research Images of “protein powder” containers with accomplished bodybuilders on their labels help inform consumers that protein is a critical macronutrient in strength training success. Yet what is sometimes lost in this protein-bodybuilding link is that protein is an essential component for everyone, regardless of physical activity. Even those who live sedentary lives must ensure that their protein intake is complete and balanced. The importance of protein in diet is undeniable. Protein creates digesti ... The Business Traveler’s Diet Problem: Staying Fit When on the Run by Protica Nutritional Research ... Not All Protein is Created Equally by Protica Nutritional Research America’s focus on nutritious eating began to receive national attention in the 1940s when President Roosevelt introduced the RDA, or Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) model. This model, which took on the shape of a pyramid in the 1980s (and hence now goes by the term “food pyramid”), has gone through a number of iterations since its inception more than 60 years ago[i]. This change and evolution of the RDA model is, in many respects, a positive step. It demonstrates that, just as America’s info ... Current Dietary Recommendations in Strength Training by Protica Nutritional Research Efforts to expand the limits of human strength and endurance have kept the scientist and the athlete occupied for centuries. The quest for another pound of muscle, or to lift next couple of kilos has been relentlessly pursued in the gym and the laboratory alike. As the questions and conquests became more challenging, the answers have become more elusive and complicated. Few concepts and conclusions have withstood the test of time in exercise physiology. Even as we tackle the metabolic and geneti ... Capsulized Food: The Next Step in Food Evolution by Protica Nutritional Research Anyone who has spent a day fasting from food, or who has even skipped a meal, knows just how much time we save when we are not provisioning and consuming meals. Of course, efficiency is not our only concern when it comes to eating. If we were to articulate our fundamental requirements for food, we would probably come up with the following: (1) it should give us the nutrition our bodies need; (2) it should support our body transformation goals (e.g. lose fat or gain muscle); (3) it should taste g ... Exposing the "Best" Source of Protein Myth by Protica Nutritional Research An American culture that is marked by a chronic lack of time and the need to achieve is often in pursuit of the “best” something or other. These “best” lists tend to improve time efficiency they help people make quick decisions without a lot of research or “trial and error”. However, as with most inventions, there is a potentially harmful application of these very popular “best” lists. There are situations where the need to identify the best of something obscures the real truth that, quite simp ... Inactive Alert: Essential Proteins for Sedentary People by Protica Nutritional Research The importance of protein in diet has been clearly established by nutritional scientists, and widely accepted by athletes. Among other vital functions, protein is indispensable for creating muscle. Just as important is protein’s essential ability to repair damaged muscles after training[i]. While the value of protein in diet has been accepted and promoted within the athletic community, it has been less well disseminated within the very large sedentary population. Currently making up about 25% o ... Turning an Addictive Snack into a Complete Meal by Protica Nutritional Research The proliferation of fast food restaurants, convenience stores, and vending machines in virtually every corner of residential America has created a serious nutritional problem. “Snacking” – a harmless-sounding verb that deceptively implies something unobjectionable – has reached addictive proportions[i]. The manifestation of this addiction goes beyond mere obesity something that is widely considered to be a severe public health crisis[ii]. Even among non-obese Americans, researchers are identif ... The Isometric Diet and Balanced Health by Protica Nutritional Research The concept isometric has been a part of the health care vocabulary for decades. The most common application of the term, until now, has been with respect to physical exercise. Taken from the Greek root word Iso, meaning equal, the familiar term Isometric exercises involves applying equal weight to achieve strength goals. Fairly recently, health researchers have discovered another innovative application of the isometric concept in the health care field: nutrition. These researchers have identif ... Protein and Endurance Sports by Protica Nutritional Research Endurance Sports are like music concerts. They start at a low key, setting a steady rhythm and culminate into a crescendo that enthralls the spectator and the athlete. And not unlike an orchestra, endurance demands a flawless performance from every organ, testing the limits of their resilience. As each system, conducted by the human will, endures a pace bordering on fatigue, the athlete begins to hear music from the heart. What’s often neglected, and considered unnecessary, in endurance sports i ... Breast Cancer Cure With The Power Of Fame by Denny Armstrong There is no known cure for breast cancer. More than 1.5 million people will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year worldwide. The incidence of breast cancer has nearly tripled in the past 50 years.

Scientists don't know why most women get breast cancer, yet breast cancer is the most frequent tumor found in women the world over. What can a woman do when fate has played a cruel joke and a woman's very life can be ... Catching a Killer - New Steps Taken in Treating Mesothelioma by Maggie Kay There’s a silent killer out there. It creeps up on its victims, attacks them quietly and unsuspectingly, and initiates a wound that develops over many years before it eventually causes pain. This unstoppable murderer is known as mesothelioma. Mesothelioma is a malignant tumor that develops on the mesothelial cells of either the lungs, heart or abdominal organs, and plagues those who have been exposed to asbestos for a prolonged period of time. Many who fall victim to this disease are people who ... Nutrition Supplements for Aging Americans by Protica Nutritional Research While America has given birth to the song “Young at Heart”, and the phrase “you’re as young as you feel!” can be heard from coast to coast by millions of people, demographic trend point firmly toward the other direction: aging. Currently, the 65+ population comprises slightly more than 12% (35 million) of the total US population. By 2030, this percentage is predicted to almost double to just below 20% (71 million)[i]. In other words, within a generation, an unprecedented demographic reality wil ... 6 Easy Techniques To Cope With Night Shift Work -Without Any Expensive Doctors Or Medicine by Ebe Heng People working the night shift poses a huge challenge for their sleeping system, because of the improper light exposure/ activity levels.
