After the age of about 30, bone thinning is a natural process and cannot be stopped completely. Whether you develop osteoporosis depends not only on the thickness of your bones early in life but also on your health, diet, and physical activity later in life. The thicker your bones, the less likely the bones are to become thin enough to break. Young women in particular need to be aware of their risk for osteoporosis and take steps early to slow its progress and prevent complications.

A lot of physical activity during the preteen and teen years increases bone mass and greatly reduces the risk of osteoporosis in adulthood. If you eat a diet adequate in calcium and vitamin D and exercise regularly early in life and then continue with these healthy habits, you may be able to delay or avoid osteoporosis.

osteoporosis

Healthy Balanced Diet

Eat a nutritious diet that includes adequate amounts of calcium and vitamin D. Both are needed for building healthy, strong bones. Vitamin D is vital for calcium absorption in bones and to improve muscle strength. Getting more vitamin D may help prevent falls in older people who are low in vitamin D. And some studies show that taking vitamin D may reduce the chances of breaking a bone.

Natural Supplements

Talk to your doctor about measuring your vitamin D to be sure you are getting enough. The best source of vitamin D is exposure to sunlight. Vitamin D is also added to milk, some calcium supplements, and many multivitamin supplements.

Physical activity

Get regular exercise. Weight-bearing exercises, such as walking, jogging, stair climbing, dancing, or weight lifting, keep bones healthy by working the muscles and bones against gravity.

Avoiding Alcohol

Don’t drink more than 2 alcoholic drinks a day if you are a man or more than 1 alcoholic drink a day if you are a woman. Drinking more than this puts you at higher risk for osteoporosis

Avoiding Nicotine

Don’t smoke. Smoking puts you at a higher risk for osteoporosis and increases the rate of bone thinning after it starts.

Supplements that can prevent Osteoporosis

Nature-Min®

nature-minYour body can benefit from nutrients locked deep in an ancient seabed, because four percent of our body weight is comprised of these minerals. Since our bodies can’t manufacture minerals, we have to obtain them from our food or supplementation.

Forever Nature-Min® is an advanced, multi-mineral formula using new bio-available forms of minerals for maximum absorption. It provides minerals and trace minerals in a perfectly balanced ratio for maximum efficiency. Using a mineral base of natural seabed deposits, Nature-Min provides most of the key minerals found in the human body.

Minerals in the body perform three functions:

1. Some, like calcium, phosphorus and magnesium, are constituents of the bones and teeth.
2. Others are soluble salts that help to control the composition of body fluids and cells.
3. Minerals, such as iron and hemoglobin, perform other vital tasks. They work with enzymes and proteins, which are necessary for releasing and utilizing energy.

Forever Nature-Min® is an excellent way to ensure that your body is getting the minerals and trace minerals it needs to meet the demands of a healthy, balanced lifestyle.

  • Contains trace minerals from natural sea bed deposit
  • Perfect blend of minerals in each tablet
  • Minerals play many roles in the human body, from regulating fluid balance to activating genes and hormones

Forever Calcium®

calciumCalcium is the most common mineral found in your body, accounting for about 2% of your total weight. The majority of calcium, 99%, resides in your teeth and bones, while the remainder is found in nerve cells, blood, body tissues and other body fluids. Long associated with the growth and maintenance of bones and teeth, calcium is also essential for the clotting of blood and the transmission of nerve impulses. Calcium is needed for our muscles to function and to release hormones, including insulin. According to the USDA, 75 percent of Americans are not meeting daily calcium recommendations.

Calcium is the major mineral that helps strengthen bones. Children and teenagers especially need adequate calcium in their diets, as the pre-teen and teen years are when they maximize the calcium storage in their bones in order to build up and preserve the bone mass they will need later in life. This is true because peak bone mass and calcium content of the skeleton is reached during the teen years. Bone calcium begins to decrease in young adulthood, and progressive loss of bone calcium occurs as we age, particularly in women. Adequate dietary calcium can help minimize this loss. A diet high in calcium appears to encourage the body to burn more fat and cuts the amount of new fat laid down by the body.

Estimates show that roughly 30 to 50 million Americans are lactose intolerant. People who are lactose intolerant cannot digest lactose, a natural sugar found in milk and dairy products, and therefore may not be consuming enough dairy products for their Calcium needs. For individuals who either cannot tolerate any lactose or do not like dairy products, Calcium supplements may be an option. The most effective is Calcium Citrate, because it dissolves easily in the stomach and is absorbed efficiently.

Forever Calcium® is an ultra-dense Calcium Citrate formula that supplies your body with 100% of the daily-recommended dietary intake (RDI) of calcium. Blended with a hint of vanilla flavor, the daily serving of Forever Calcium contains 1000mg of calcium combined with vitamin D and magnesium – two elements that are essential for maximizing calcium absorption. Two Forever Calcium tablets with breakfast, and two with dinner is an easy, effective way to ensure you’re getting the calcium you need for the promotion of good bone health.

  • Calcium Citrate formula combined with Vitamin D and Magnesium
  • Easy to digest and efficiently absorbed
  • Daily serving provides body with 100% of RDI of calcium

Forever Lite Ultra® with Aminotein®†† – Vanilla or Chocolate

shakesForever Lite Ultra® with Aminotein® is the perfect addition to your healthy Forever Living lifestyle. Forever Lite Ultra® with Aminotein® integrates new thinking with new technologies to help you maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle.

Two servings a day of Forever Lite Ultra®, prepared with skim milk as directed, supply a full 100% of the Reference Daily Intake (RDI) for the vitamins and minerals shown in the Nutrition Facts section. Forever Lite Ultra® supplies the 18 important amino acids, including essential, non-essential and the branch-chain amino acids.

Forever Lite Ultra® is also an integral part of Forever’s Clean 9 program. It will help you take charge of your health and put you on the path to effective and sustained weight management!

  • For your low-carb lifestyle
  • Two shakes provide 100% RDI of numerous vitamins and minerals
  • Naturally flavored
  • About 21 servings per can

Your neighbor is coughing; your mailman is coughing, and even your son comes home from school with a cough.  The flu has made its way to the news headlines, so you will want to do what you can to help make sure it doesn’t make its way to you.

The easiest way to catch the cold or flu is by rubbing your nose after sneezed on.  Experts from the Mayo Clinic say that cold and flu germs have shown potential to live for 48 hours or more.  So while you will want to remember to avoid rubbing your nose, it’s also good practice to wash your hands frequently, use hand sanitizer and keep your immune system boosted.  Here are some products from Forever Living that can help you stay healthy this season.

Aloe Hand & Face Soap

Flu GermsAloe Hand & Face Soap is a rich, moisturizing hand and face cleanser with a generous amount of aloe. It creates a luxurious lather, leaving the skin feeling clean, smooth and silky, while minimizing the irritations experienced with some bar soaps. Its mild formula also makes Aloe Hand & Face Soap an ideal shampoo for children and adults alike.

Biodegradable, pH-balanced and non-irritating, it is mild enough for daily facial, hand, hair or body cleansing, and is suitable for those with sensitive skin.

The skin-soothing stabilized aloe and hydrating honey soften and moisturize as it cleans – not to mention its pleasing scent of lemon and lavender. And the 2-oz bottle makes it the perfect size for us to have on hand anywhere, any time!

Let’s face it – if you’re an active family, there’s not much you can do about picking up a few germs. But you can get rid of them quick. Forever Hand Sanitizer® – a big peace of mind in a tiny bottle. Kills 99.99% of germs

Forever ImmuBlend®

cold and flu germsForever ImmuBlend™ is designed to support immune system function by addressing all aspects of the immune system from its first line of defense to its last.

Immune-boosting Ingredients

Has this ever happened to you?  You’re feeling like life is finally coming together.  You’re managing work and fitness with ease.  You’re looking forward to all your favorite activities and you have plenty of energy for all of your hobbies.  Then over the course of a week or two, you find that each day you have less and less energy.  You want to go to bed earlier and wake up later.  You start to crave foods you normally don’t eat and you no longer have the zest for the things that used to bring you joy.  Before you know it, you’ve come down with a cough, congestion, maybe even a fever.  It seems hard to believe you’re even the same person.  It happens to all of us at one time or another: our bodies become overloaded and haven’t done enough to support them.

Immublend by Forever Living

immublend forever living

Fructooligosaccharides

The benefits of Fructooligosaccharides have been known in Japan for years, where their properties as probiotic support for the growth of friendly bacteria were acknowledged early on by the Japanese government.  Fructooligosaccharides have also been known to increase calcium absorption in the large intestine.  Extracted from fruits and vegetables such as jicama, tomatoes,  chicory and leeks.  Fructooligosaccharides are a natural way to boost the immune system.

Lactoferrin

Lactoferrin is a protein that is extracted from milk for its probiotic and immunity-boosting properties.  It is a naturally occurring substance in the human body, one that can improve your immune system’s responses at the cellular level.

Maitake & Shiitake Mushrooms

In China and Japan mushrooms have been used for their nutritional and healthful qualities for more than 3000 years.  Research has shown the mushrooms have compounds and nutrients that are not found in other plants.  In studies on mice, it has been shown that mushrooms have powerful immune-boosting properties.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D occurs naturally in very few foods, such as cod liver oil, beef liver and sardines.  If the thought of fitting those foods into your dietary regimen does not sound appealing don’t worry, with Forever Immublend, there’s another way to get the benefits of Vitamin D, which supports healthy cell proliferation, increased calcium absorption and a healthy cardiovascular system.

Vitamin C

Your body might obtain enough Vitamin C through diet since it occurs naturally in delicious fruits like citrus, pepper and sweet potatoes.  But this nutrient is such a powerhouse you’ll want to make sure you’re getting plenty.  Vitamin C has been shown to improve the immune system, increase absorption of iron from plant-based foods and help protect cells from free radicals.

Zinc

If you already have cold and go the store to buy lozenges, chances are they will include the mineral zinc.  That’s because zinc has been shown to provide support to help your immune system get back to full strength more quickly.  The other great thing about Forever Immublend is that it can be taken daily, year-round, without losing effectiveness.

Do you ever have trouble sleeping?  Nearly every person experiences some form of insomnia in their lifetime.    So what are the best ways to improve the quality of sleep?  The answer lies in improving sleep habits gradually.

sleeping

MAINTAIN A RELAXING ENVIRONMENT

aloe-blossom-herbal-teaBefore you even approach to bed, try doing a short, non-stimulating activity, but keep the lights dim.  You might read a book, meditate for a few moments or do progressive muscle relaxation: lie down in a quite place and flex each muscle in your body then release it, from your fingers to your toes.  It’s a great idea to set a nightly ritual of enjoying a cup of Aloe Blossom Herbal Tea (Item #200).  With no caffeine and a delicious mixture of cinnamon, ginger, clove and allspice, this tea is a perfect way to wind down every evening.

KEEP A SET SLEEP SCHEDULE

sleep_scheduleIt may be tempting to sleep in when you don’t have a morning meeting or stay up late to watch the new episode of your favorite show.  But one of the most the most important parts of sleeping well is to practice what is called good “sleep hygiene.”  According to the National Sleep Foundation, sleep hygiene refers to a number of practices that contribute to good sleep.  The most important one is having a set sleep schedule.  If you go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day, your body will be more able to fall asleep and stay asleep.

EXERCISE

exerciseYou’ve heard it before, and now you’re hearing it again.  A regular exercise routine helps regulate your sleep patterns.  Make sure to do vigorous exercise in the morning or afternoon and relaxing exercise such as Yoga or taking a short walk in the evening.

2013 is here! – NOW is Time to Start Clean 9!

Posted in: Healthy Lifestyle, Products. Tagged: Clean 9, exercise, nutritional cleansing, positive thinking. Leave a comment

happy-new-yearYou worked hard in 2012, so it’s normal to reward yourself during the holiday season.  But what’s the best way to cope if you’re entering the New Year with a few extra pounds to show for it? Luckily, the month of January is when many of us find ourselves with extra motivation to start fresh with healthy routines.  You can start the year off right by hitting the re-set button on mind and body.

FRESHEN UP YOUR EXERCISE ROUTINE

Just do itLight exercise before meals can act as an appetite suppressant.  Schedule a brisk walk, a session on the workout ball, or a moment with an exercise tape before dinner, and you might find you want to eat less.

Try walking up 30 minutes early to get in a daily exercise session.  Create a small area in your home that includes a piece of workout equipment or some hand weights.  Use those extra morning moments  to start your day off with a calorie deficit.

Take walk breaks instead of coffee breaks, or form a lunchtime walking group.  Use your 15 minutes to walk up and down a flight of stairs, walk around the block or perform some rejuvenating Yoga poses such as downward dog forward bend.

START THE YEAR RIGHT WITH NUTRITIONAL CLEANSING

CLEAN 9A Nutritional Cleansing program such as Forever Living’s Clean 9 can help you recovery after a period of heavy eating.  Start the Clean 9 program today and you’ll have a jump-start to a new you in 2013.

You can use Clean 9 as a way to get back to healthy calorie levels and to purge the body of excess chemicals and fat.  You’ll feel extra motivation to continue a healthy diet into the new year.

RE-TRAIN THE BRAIN

Positive ThinkingResearchers have explored the health benefits of optimism and found that positive thinking can have effects such as decreased stress, greater resistance to catching colds, improved health, a sense of well-being, better coping skills and a longer lifespan.

Negative thoughts can have the opposite effects.  When our thoughts are mostly positive, we reap the benefits of positive thinking.  When thoughts are mostly negative, we can became depressed, suffer from low self-esteem, have trouble controlling our diets and become stuck in bad mood cycles.

So welcome your body and mind into the New Year with improved exercise routines, positive thinking techniques, and Clean 9 – a nutritional cleanse that will help your body recover from holiday excess.  Next thing you know, 2013 will be the best year yet!

Feeling good, looking gorgeous – Cellulite

free-of-cellulite-skin

We need to feel good and look gorgeous everyday in today’s world. Everybody takes pictures, tons of pictures.  We need to be ready to pose and look confident. To look confident we have to be confident.  Anytime is good to start, it’s never too late to begin taking care of ourselves.
Many women have a hard time showing their bodies with confidence because of very common problem, cellulite.

CELLULITE VS HEALTHY SKIN

What is cellulite?

The term cellulite refers to the dimpled appearance of the skin that some people have on their hips, thighs, and buttocks. This appearance is much more common in women than in men because of differences in the way fat, muscle, and connective tissue are distributed in men and women’s skin.

What causes it?

It is believed that it is caused by a poor diet, excessive ingestion of fat or carbohydrates through meals, refined sugar and flour.  The consumed fat is absorbed from the intestine and transported through the blood, either directly or via liver, to fat cells.  In addition, a lack of exercise and not drinking enough water contribute to the problem.

SUGGESTED TREATMENT:

detox first

Detox your body and lose weight

The first suggestion is to lose excess weight and keep it off.  To do that, complete detox is necessary (recommended 2 times a year).  Forever Living Products offers an amazing product. The first step to a clean body is to cleanse and support the digestive system. Clean 9 provides us with the necessary tools to cleanse our body.
In the Clean 9 pack, we will find:
– 3 bottles of Aloe Vera Gel
– 1 can of Forever Lite Ultra® with Aminotein – Vanilla or Chocolate
– 1 bottle of Forever Garcinia Plus®
– 1 bottle of Forever Bee Pollen®

sugar fat salt

To keep the weight off we need to

Avoid fats, especially fat with sugar (chocolate: 60% sugar, 30% fat) and fat with salt (potato chips with salt).  The combination of fat and sugar promotes the storage of fat in our bodies.  When we eat, the glucose level in our blood rises, alerting our pancreas to release insulin to reduce blood sugar level.  This increased insulin increases our storage of fat what contributes to cellulite.

cellulite diet

To prevent cellulite include these foods in your diet

– beet root
– celery
– cucumber
– seaweed
– aloe juice
– take vitamin C – Vitamin C helps to activate remodeling of collagen
– take vitamin E – vitamin E inhibits undesirable thickening of fat

massage

To eliminate cellulite we need a routine massage and skin care

– A use of a natural fiber sponge and a small amount of aloe soap will improve dramatically appearance of the affected skin.  Best way to do this is to rub the the area with cellulite in a circular motion 3-5 times a week (from bottom up).
– Also drinking the natural fiber drink, substituting it for one of the three meals.
– And exercising daily, at least 30 minutes; aerobics are recommended.

aloe body toning kit

Forever Living Products recommends also using Aloe Body Toning Kit

an at-home body wrap designed to help trim, tone and tighten, minimizing the appearance of cellulite. European herbal complexes and natural warming agents are the “secret weapons” in the war against the unsightly appearance of cellulite.
The Aloe Body Toning Kit includes:
– Aloe Body Toner
– Aloe Body Conditioning Creme
– Aloe Bath Gelée – aloe based soap
– Loofah (natural sponge) and plastic wrap
A combination of a routine exercise, a healthy diet and a skin care will help us to regain a healthy weight and a gorgeous looking skin that we will not be ashamed to show off.
