Echinacea TinctureAre All Vitamins Created Equal?

Everyone has read the reports and seen the news. Our soil is depleted and lacks the necessary nutrients and minerals that our bodies need. The environment is toxic and wreaks havoc on our health. Free radicals attack our immune system. The only solution seems to be supplementation with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to compensate for environmental deficiencies.

After hearing all of this, what do most people do? They take a trip to the local supercenter or pharmacy, grab bottles of a popular supplement, and then think their job is done. It is a safe bet, however, that many people are not considering if what they consume is nutritionally complete and balanced. Not all supplements are created equal.

Dr. Myron Wentz, Ph.D and founder of USANA Health Sciences has this to say in the company's "Health and Freedom" brochure: " I began testing health supplements in my analytical laboratory to measure their nutritional balance and their effectiveness in promoting and sustaining a healthy life. Many of the products I analyzed were not only nutritionally unbalanced, but had incorrect and misleading labels. My research proved many times that what consumers thought they were buying and what they were receiving were two different things."

What can people do to ensure they are purchasing supplements that are high quality and nutritionally balanced? Here are 5 tips to assist in this process:

1. Perform careful research! Don't just go along with the latest fads. A good book to purchase is "The Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements" by Lyle MacWilliam, BSc, MSc. MacWilliam is a former Canadian Member of Parliament and a current member of the Legislative Assembly for British Columbia. His book carefully analyzes over 500 products available in the US and Canada. The products that are listed at the top are best in the market today.

2. Look for a company who invests significant time and money in extensive scientific research, has worldwide scientific alliances, and who puts quality first.

3. Check to see if there is a guaranteed potency. Yes, there are companies who offer this and who follow stringent analytical and quality control procedures. In other words, what you see on a product's label is actually in the product.

4. Make sure the company's products follow pharmaceutical-grade good manufacturing practices (GMP). This is a step above FDA regulations. This means a variety of government agencies conduct periodic inspections and require control of procedures, as well as documentation.

5. Lastly, look to see if the company's products provide a money-back guarantee. Believe it or not, there is a company that is so confident about its products that if offers a revolutionary one million money-back guarantee to some professional and world class athletes.

Follow the above 5 tips for optimal health!

Dr Wheatgrass SupershotsThe reason why it's so hard to stick to a diet

Deep down you know the latest diet you've just started isn't going to work. Sure, the first few days you're buzzing with high spirits and dreaming about the new clothes you'll be able to buy, but it soon wears off doesn't it? You don't need me to tell you diets are extremely hard to stick to, but the reason why hasn't been discussed properly.

The reason is choice. Yep, it's that simple.

To elaborate, our appetites haven't evolved to cope with the enormous amount of choice that exists today. Why does this matter? Because choice stimulates appetite. That's why you can alway fit in a chocolate pudding, even though you couldn't manage another mouthful of potatoes. Your mind says "Hey, that's enough potatoes!" and makes you feel uncomfortably full. On seeing dessert it then goes "Ooh, chocolate pudding, that's different!" and makes you hungry again.

Now this wouldn't be so bad by itself, but the problem is made worse by the huge and varied types of food which we are surrounded by. If you compared the foods stocked by a typical supermarket today with one from 50 years ago the difference would be staggering. Add in the new foods from around the world and you end up with a constant hunger that never seems satisfied. Our 'full' signal is simply drowned out by our appetite.

For example, the UK didn't have takeaway pizza chains until the early 80s, which just so happens to be around the time obesity started increasing. Supermarkets became more powerful (UK's Asda is part owned by Walmart) and the range of foods exploded. Brits who were happy with simple meals were suddenly eating like kings every day, leading to expanding waistlines.

In newly emerging economies like India and China obesity is on the rise (along with related conditions such as insulin resistance). More food choice goes hand in hand with weight gain.

So to succeed in losing weight you need to start taking a list of foods to buy at the supermarket. Stick to it rigidly and don't be tempted by special offers (unless they are for fruit and vegetables of course). Remove any tempting food if possible from your home, although this is hard if you have a family.

Also, a fun and interesting way to help lose weight is to eat foods your ancestors used to have. Try and find out the diet your grandparents and great-grandparents used to eat and try to do the same once a day. If they only ate meat once a week or month, try doing the same and see if you feel any better.

Why not make a new years resolution to stop the circle of fad diets and take control of your appetite.
