Can Omega-3s Benefit Your Child?

Supplements of omega-3 fatty acids may help prevent asthmatic cough and allergy to house dust mites in children, according to Australian researchers, which adds powerful new evidence to the continuing debate about the effect omega-3s have on children.

In the past, omega-3 fatty acids have been used to potentially improve heart health and mental health in all individuals. The results from recent research could prove beneficial in widening the span of potential health benefits omega-3s have to offer, especially for children. This new study found that children who are predisposed to allergies may benefit from omega-3 supplementation. The results showed these children to have less asthmatic cough, however no benefit was seen in children who were not predisposed to allergies.

Past studies have found omega-3s to benefit children’s health when taken during pregnancy. Omega-3s are critical to normal eye and vision development. Babies who are deficient in omega-3s may not respond properly to light and may have behavioral and vision problems. Omega-3 fatty acids accumulate in the brain and eyes during the last trimester, which may be why premature infants are at a much higher risk of developing irreversible nerve and vision damage. Consuming these nutrients before and during pregnancy could potentially assure your baby will benefit later in life.

Honestly, How Healthy Are You?

Before Moses died, Scripture says; Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died, his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated. (Deuteronomy 34:7)

The Bible tells us that the eyes are the windows of the soul, the light of the body.

What this means is Moses did not die of an illness nor was his body feeble or his mind weak. God was ready to take him home, Moses had fulfilled his purpose. Joshua passed on at age 110, after he came off the battle field. caleb went full bore battling giants in his late eighties, until the Lord called him home.
These heros of the Bible never spent time in doctor's offices or hospitals for cancer or any dis-ease. You were created in the image of God (Genesis 1:26) for a reason ~ to be a reflection of God to the world for His glory. Are you healthy? or do you think you healthy simply because there's an absence of a grave disease in your life?

Good health is a lot more than absence of disease in your life. Good health is waking up in the morning feeling rested and ready to attack the day. Good health is having the energy to keep up with the job, the family, the kids your involved with daily. Good health is having something left in the tank after you've put in a full day of work. Good health is thriving, not just surviving.
God intended us to prosper, living long and abundant lives. Enjoying everyday life!

Just think about the times we have eaten pizzas, doughnuts, ice cream, which makes ones arteries harden. How about those potlucks with main dishes such as mounds of fried chicken, pork drenched in a molasses~based sauce, greasy onion rings, potatoe salads, coleslaw, and, oh me oh my, those desserts...three layer German chocolate cake, apple pie with whipped cream, cobblers!

Think also about those holiday meals that are cooked every year. Turkey, ham, dressing, potatoes and gravy. Then to top that wonderful meal off, we have all the desserts and snack foods.

No wonder the church has it's share of sick and hurting people. It is mind boggling the number of people seeking prayer for cancer treatments, heart ailments, arthritis, and liver problems. Ill health is the number one subject of prayer requests! Children fighting cancer, diabetes and heart problems, thirty year olds battling with Parkinson's disease, having heart attacks, fifty year olds exhibiting disorders like dimentia and Alzheimer's disease.

Don't we realize that we are setting ourselves up for debilitating disease and/or early death by making poor choices in what we eat and how we live? Sure we do. We live in the information age.
Why aren't we as healthy as we should be?

God spoke through His prophet Hosea thousands of years ago. In addressing the moral and spiritual decay of the nation Israel, the Lord said; My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge because they have rejected knowledge...(Hosea 4:6)

Too many people go through life without realizing that at least 8o per cent of diseases are lifestyle related.

How can I have fun during the holiday’s without gaining weight? As most Americans are well aware, the holidays can be detrimental to dieting. In fact, the average American gains five pounds between Thanksgiving and New Years, but it does not have to be this way any longer. You can get a head start and follow the tips below so that when Santa Claus comes to town, you can be a little bit naughty and still look nice for the new year.

Be Prepared to Party:
Have a serving of Biometics Pro-Fit Plus or Body’s Best before you head out. Filling up on protein, fiber and water before and during a party decrease your appetite. You can avoid overeating by curbing your appetite before the party starts. Do not choose to be “on or off” a diet. Chances are that while you are at a party, you will break any strict diet. On the other hand, if you are “off your diet,” all restrictions are off and you may over eat. The key to permanent weight loss is not in dieting, but in changing your attitude towards nutrition permanently.

Keep It Under Control:
Chew thoroughly and use a small plate. You can only fit so much on a snack-size plate and the food that you choose will digest more easily if it is chewed well. Finish dinner within an hour. Begin any holiday feast with a salad and be sure to eat your entire meal within an hour. By stretching out the length of the dinner, you will be inclined to eat more. Don’t eat for the sake of eating. Just because everyone else is doing it, it doesn’t mean that you have to. If you do snack, choose salty foods over sweet foods.

Leave the Party Behind You:
Once the party is over, the eating frenzy is too. Just because you break your normal eating habits for one evening does not mean that you can continue to do so. Get back to your daily routine the next day. This includes your exercise schedule. Do not wait to get back to the gym. Your metabolism will remain high if you continue to exercise.

Have a Stress-Less Holiday Season

Stress is common during the holidays, and has multiple sources. There’s the stress of traveling to see family or of hosting family for an extended period of time, the stress of too many family members in one space, the stress of buying gifts for the many people in our lives, and the overwhelming stress that comes from exceeding our budgets to pay for all these gatherings, food, gifts, and the expenses of travel. Stress is frequently more than simply losing our temper or not enjoying ourselves. Stress has physical side effects too.
According to Men’s Health magazine, more than 43 percent of men will experience the physical side effects of stress in their lifetimes. These physical side effects include diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and back pain, plus the stress on your body can impair your immune system.

Reducing stress is not as easy as taking a deep breath and letting it out. But reducing stress can go a long way toward maintaining proper health, and there are many supplements that can aid you.

Probably the most well-known supplement for stress, St. John’s Wort, is still one of the best. Its traditional use in Europe was to “ward off evil spirits,” but today most people make the dried plant into a bitter tea or in capsules and take it to help lift mood. It has been closely studied for many years, and researchers have identified “hypericin” as one of the main compounds in the herb, but believe that there are many more that work with hypericin to lift mood, and that these compounds work by affecting the body’s levels of the hormone seretonin, a brain chemical that affects emotions.

Rhodiola rosea, an herb from the arctic mountain regions of Siberia, is typically considered to be an “adaptogen.” This means that it is an herb that works through the adrenal glands to produce adjustments in the body to help combat stress and increase resistance to stress. Adaptogens generally work by strengthening the immune system or nervous system. In a clinical trial studying Rhodiola rosea’s ability to alleviate symptoms of depression, 128 patients were given an extract of Rhodiola rosea. The Rhodiola rosea extract was effective in reducing or removing symptoms of depression in 65% of the patients.

These supplements are considered very safe, and can be used together for optimal effectiveness. Side effects for these supplements are rare, though it is possible that people may be allergic to the actual plants. St. John’s Wort has been known to interfere with the proper absorption of some prescription medication, including oral contraceptives, anti-depressants, and some medicines used after organ transplant, so it is best to consult with the prescribing doctor if there is any question. Also, it is always important to remember that anyone taking prescription anti-depressants should not discontinue their use without consulting their doctor.

Resisting Sugar Cravings On Halloween

Halloween is around the corner, and even if you don’t have kids with full bags of trick-or-treat candies, most people will stock up on candy to hand out to the visitors. Unfortunately the temptation will get the better of some of us, and we end up indulging a little too much.

Candy and other sweets are digested and turned into glucose quickly. This sudden supply of glucose in the blood creates a “sugar rush.” To counter the over-abundance of glucose, the pancreas sends insulin out into the blood to lower the sugar levels. The sugar rush is over quickly, and the body reacts to the lack of glucose in the blood by feeling hungry again. The resulting up and down of blood sugar can mean that we feel “cravings” for the Halloween candies sitting right next to us.

How do we keep an even keel during this trying night? Staying full can help. Taking a fiber supplement is a good choice, since it can give the sensation of fullness. Taking supplements that help combat the urge for sweets and help to balance blood sugar levels is an even better choice.

The herb Gymnema Sylvestre is frequently found in diet aid supplements because it has been studied for many years for its ability to control blood sugar and help with diabetes. Scientists studying the effects of Gymnema on diabetes have found at least nine different natural chemicals (called “gymnemic acids”) which have an effect on the body’s blood sugar levels. It seems to work by helping the body use insulin more effectively.

Vanadium, more commonly known as Vanadyl Sulfate, is a supplement that researchers say seems to mimic the effects of insulin in the body, although they are not sure why or how it works. It is through this ability to mimic insulin that Vanadium supports how the body uses glycogen (the form of blood sugar when it is stored in the body) and maintains blood glucose levels.

These supplements are considered very safe, with no known side effects, and can be taken together with no adverse interactions. Due to its effects on blood sugar, anyone with diabetes may wish to check with their doctor before taking Gymnema Sylvestre.

Halloween Bio Nite

Halloween is not the same without a good horror movie to end the night, even though heading to a dark bedroom after the show might be more spooky than normal. Chances are you might even lie in bed awake with no hope of sleep thinking about how the evil monster might be inside your closet. This is just one of many reasons for sleep deprivation.

Many Americans experience sleep deprivation on a regular basis and it is definitely cause for concern. Adequate restful sleep, like diet and exercise, is critical to good health. Insufficient sleep can result in mental and physical health problems.

BIO NITE is your solution to this problem and here is why. The primary ingredient in BIO NITE is melatonin, which is naturally secreted by the pineal gland in the brain. One of melatonin’s major roles is to create a sleep pattern. Jet lag, excessive light, shift work, and poor vision can all disrupt melatonin cycles.

Studies suggest that melatonin supplements help induce sleep in people with this type of disrupted sleep pattern and those with low melatonin levels (such as some elderly).1 So this Halloween, watch the scary movie and sleep peacefully with BIO NITE.

BIOMETICS offers a full line of advanced liquid nutrition for overall body health. BIO NITE is Emusol® Micellized which guarantees maximum absorption of melatonin to promote a natural and safe way to fall asleep.

The Biometics Healthy Lifestyle Guide offers tips and suggestions to enhance your health. This 32-page supplement booklet addresses basic nutrition for a healthy lifestyle. It offers simple guidelines and refers to the health of others through Biometics. Give yourself a gift of health. Purchase the Biometics Healthy Lifestyle Guide to a new healthier, leaner you!

THREE SUPPLEMENTS YOU NEED, PT. 3

Supplements You May Need, but Might Not Know About: Part 3

This week Nutrition Line will discuss the benefits of another supplement found in Biometics products that many people need, but are not commonly known.

Brain Food: Omega-3 Fatty Acids

It is called a brain food, but an even better description for omega-3 fatty acids is the ultimate health food due to its positive health effects. Recent studies have proven omega-3 fatty acids to be beneficial in lowering risk of heart attack, and stroke. One study found omega-3s to significantly lower rates of depression and another study found that people over the age of 63 saw a slower decline of mental abilities when taking omega-3 fatty acids. Other benefits include possible slowing of tumor growth, reducing of menstrual cramps, and lowering symptoms of asthma and rheumatoid arthritis.

However, despite the long list of health benefits surrounding omega-3 fatty acids, most people no longer consume enough to reap the benefits. There are two main reasons why.

About 100 years ago, cattle began to be fed with grain instead of grass. The change did not seem to be drastic, but the health impact on meat-eaters has been tremendous. Grass fed cattle produces beef that contains an abundance of omega-3 fatty acids, but today, meat no longer contains this valuable component. Instead, most people today consume too many omega-6 fatty acids- a cousin of omega-3.

Omega-6 fatty acids are found in corn, safflower seed, sunflower seed, cottonseed, and soybean, which make up most of today’s popular cooking oils. According to Dr. Artemis Simopoulos, president of the Center of Genetics, Nutrition and Health in Washington D.C., the imbalance of omega-3s and omega-6s can cause an increase in dangerous heart problems, more depression, faster development of tumors, and more autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. The best way to balance out the current imbalance of the American diet is to consume foods that contain omega-3 fatty acids at least twice per week. These foods include cold water fish, walnuts, and flaxseed. However, Dr. Simopoulos suggested that if you do not choose to include these foods in your regular diet, you should take a supplement that contains the Essential Fatty Acids every day. To decrease the amount of omega-6 fatty acids in your diet, avoid foods with vegetable oils, cook with olive oil, and choose dressings, mayo, and margarine made with olive or canola oil.

THREE SUPPLEMENTS YOU NEED PT. 2

Supplements You May Need, but Might Not Know About: Part 2

This week Nutrition Line will discuss the benefits of another supplement found in Biometics products that many people need, but are not commonly known.

Heart Protector: Coenzyme Q10

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is also known as ubiquinone, from the word “ubiquitous,” meaning present everywhere. It is essential to the process that allows your cells to produce the energy to do all of the things that keep you alive. Beginning in the 1950s, a number of successful studies and research projects have been completed on the benefits and multiple purposes of CoQ10 including its use in heart health, Parkinson’s disease, the immune system, and even cancer.

A new study suggests that CoQ10 supplementation can reduce some symptoms of Parkinson’s disease by improving the function of the patients mitochondria- the “powerhouses” that produce energy in cells. In the multicenter Parkinson’s Study Group, patients who took high doses of CoQ10 in early stages actually slowed progression of the disease.

In multiple studies, it was shown that people with congestive heart failure and cardiomyopathy, both frequently fatal conditions, recover more quickly when CoQ10 was added to conventional treatment.

Because there have been studies that show CoQ10 to be effective in boosting the immune system, it is now being researched and explored for its effects against cancer. Although a clinical trial has not yet been conducted, the future is bright. A related chemical has shown promise in suppressing cancer growth in test tubes and in animals by possibly disrupting the process of cancer-stricken cell growth.

CoQ10 is primarily found in animal products, however, even if you are a meat eater and consume large amounts of meat and fish products every day, you probably do not consume more than 15mg of CoQ10 (100mg was used in clinical trials).

**If you have a serious illness, are taking a prescription blood thinner, or are concerned about taking CoQ10, see your doctor or health care professional before taking the supplement.

BIOMETICS offers a full line of advanced liquid nutrition for overall body health. CELL CARE contains 30mg of CoQ10 for improved heart and cellular health!

51 Reported Deaths from Popular ADHD Treatment!

51 Reported Deaths from Popular ADHD Treatment!
Psychologist and Author Discusses the Truth about Treating ADHD

WILMINGTON/WILLARD, NORTH CAROLINA - 9/20/2008 - Fifty-one deaths were reported in the United States alone that were linked with Ritalin (a popular medication prescribed for ADHD) use in a 5 year period. This was enough to cause alarm among the medical community and prompted an FDA investigation which eventually led to a 2006 recommendation to include a black box warning with the medication. So let's try to put these "51 deaths" in perspective; let's say that there are roughly 2-3 million prescriptions written each month for Ritalin in the United States alone.

Let's just assume that most of these 2-3 million are repeat consumers and are the same 2-3 million that month-in and month-out purchase Ritalin. So conservatively speaking, 51 out of about 3 million people receiving Ritalin died in some way as a result of medication.
Some argued that Ritalin was directly responsible, while the FDA committees countered that these deaths were related to undiagnosed heart conditions. However you divvy up the numbers and explain them, the fact remains that 51 people died while using Ritalin. The numbers come out that you have a 1 in roughly 60,000 chance of dying a death related to Ritalin use. Terrible numbers if you play professional baseball. If you own a gambling casino in Vegas and have to pay out based on those numbers, those aren't bad odds. If you are the mother, father or family member of one of those 51 unfortunate children/teens who died while taking Ritalin, throw out the numbers, they don't matter. The pain in your heart cuts intensely like a dagger and the statistics don't mean a thing to you!

The preceeding paragraph is an excerpt from Dr. Thomas' new book, Turbo Charged Childhood. Dr. Thomas discusses ADHD and the treatment options for the estimated 15 million Americans that have now been diagnosed with the disorder. In his new book, Dr. Thomas presents a number of non-medication interventions that have worked for many families with an ADHD member. He combines his 28 years of clinical experience with a human touch. The result is a compassionate and humerous look at many of the problems that kids and families face while trying to manage problems associated with ADHD. The book answers such questions as:
*Do non-medication approaches work?
*What is the truth about medications?
*How do you educate the ADHD child?
*How do you maintain a healthy family life living with an ADHD child?
*How do you protect your marriage under the stress of raising an ADHD child?

Dr. Thomas addresses these issues and more in his new book, Turbo Charged Childhood! This book is a must read for any parent faced with the dilimena of medicating a child battling ADHD. It is also a powerful resource for teachers, guidance counselors and mental health professionals.

What others are saying about Turbo Charged Childhood...

"MUST for any PARENT or TEACHER that has a healthy "WILD" Child. Great for adults who have trouble focusing as well...and the story about the German shepherds was great!"~Ted S

It was full of information...Dr. Thomas has made complex information easy to read & understandable...a must read for anyone dealing with the issues related to ADHD.~Chris S.
