Tips for healthy

Water makes up 75% of our body and 2 thirds of the earths surface, making it evident that it is important for life and growth. Your lungs, cells, vital organs, muscles, bones, tissues and brain are mostly water, and depriving them of water can lead to deterioration of all of these. This means that over time, without the adequate amount of daily water, your lungs will deteriorate, your cells will deteriorate, your heart and other vital organs will deteriorate, your muscles, your bones, your tissue and your brain will deteriorate. Even your blood is 80% water, so think about what you are doing to your insides when you don't drink enough, and think about the good you are doing for your body when you do drink enough!

Water also transports oxygen to your cells, removes toxins and waste from your body, and protects joints and organs. Lack of water, leading to dehydration, can cause dizziness, fatigue, allergies, arthritis, joint and muscle pains, headaches, constipation, and in serious cases, can cause asthma, hypertention, ulcers, disease, and even death. Pay attention to all of the people walking around that are overweight, hurting, complaining of aches and pains, or have muscle cramps, arthritis, bone and joint pain, health and heart probelms, diabetes, etc. and notice the amount of water they are drinking. Probably very little if any. How many times have have you heard of a celebrity that collapsed and is in the hospital, later to find out that it was caused from dehydration. Water is more serious then people give it credit for.

Your brain is only about 2% of your over all body mass, but it takes up to 25% of all of your nutrients, including oxygen and water! So if you are depriving your body of water, your brain is suffering greatly leading to unclear vision, focus, thinking and motor skills. Your brain runs your entire body, if you don't have your brain, you don't have anything! Even medicines, both over the counter and prescription, are largely made up of water. Many scientists, and doctors (both traditional and non) know that water plays an important role in not only overall health, but in HEALING as well! New research is being presented to show that the MAIN, most important, and possibly one of the only components in the healing process of medicines used for illness, weather it be in the treatment of something as simple as a cold or complex as cancer, is water, and increase in oxygen levels (also given to you through water).

But weather you believe that water can heal disease or not, you should know that it will definetly prevent disease, and lack of it will surely and most evidently cause disease. Did you know that once you become thirsty, you are already dehydrated! Once you are thirsty, it is too late. You should be drinking water throughout your day to prevent this. And for every hour you are outside, you should drink atleast 8 ounces of water.

You should be drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day, but as with everything, too much can be harmful. If you are drinking over a gallon of water a day and still feeling dehydrated, you should go see a doctor. And you should be careful as to which water you drink. You will want the most pure water. I personally drink spring water. There is, and always will be, question and speculation about which water to is best or worst for you. Some say that spring is the best and others say it is not. It is really up to you to decide, reseach the ingredients in your water and make your own conclusion. But I would stay away from tap water all together.  I'm sure with a little research you will find a list of others, and even information to the contrary, but like I said, draw your own conclusions.

When you are choosing the type of water, you want to make sure it is free of bacteria, parasites, metals, radioactive materials, oil, and chemicals (including pestisides, herbasides, chlorine, sewage, nitrates, phosphates, etc) which can ALL be found in tap water.

sneaky exercises

Get in some "sneaky exercises". What I mean by this is, in your downtime, the time you set aside to relax and watch tv or sit on your poarch, or whatever it is that you do for relaxation, sneak in a little exercising that is NOT counted for your daily routine. You can buy an exercise machine that fits in your living room, one that is easy to use, like an eliptical bike, a treadmill, or an ab machine (there are many different ones) that you use while you are watching tv (for example) or if you don't have or want a machine, then just do floor exercises, jumping jacks, march in place, go for a stroll, or create your own exercises right there on the couch.

It's best to stay as active as you can all day long, but even in the lazy hours of the day, keeping your body in some kind of motion can get you closer to your goals a lot quicker.

Don't count this towards your daily exercise, this is just a little extra to keep you strong, motivated and stimulated. Did you know that if you are trying to solve problems in your head or think about goals, things you want to achieve or reflect on your day and life choices, you can solve more problems and come to more elaborate realisations if your body is in motion while you are doing it! It may sound strange, but it makes sense. When you exercise you are releasing endorphins and serotonine, you are stimulating your body and brain, and more oxygen is getting to your brain. This causes you to think clearer, cause you to be more focused and you are more likely to look at things from a positive perspective and with a better understanding.

Try it the next time you need to solve something. Don't put too much thought into it, just do it, think about your problem and work it out in your head while you're exercising. You'll keep your body moving without any effort and you'll come to a clearer understanding of whatever you're trying to solved.

when someone calls you and starts talking

When calling your prospects, do you find it difficult, maybe even impossible?

I’m here to tell you, it’s not impossible and it doesn’t have to be difficult… maybe you just need a new approach. Think about it, when someone calls you and starts talking about how they got your number because you are interested in … bla, bla, bla (lost you already didn’t they). Well, are you doing the same thing?

The average person’s instinct is to say no and get rid of you as fast as they can. You need to remember when you call, you are most likely interrupting them and already you have 1 strike against you.

What if you start out a little different? Get their attention … make them more interested in what you have to offer.

Ok… to start, write down what you want to say, organize that into an opening about what you want to say about what you have to offer, make the opening as least 30 seconds, maybe longer if you can. Tell it like you would tell your friend, you wouldn’t be afraid to talk with them would you?

When you do call your prospect, use their first name, Say Hello (first name) this is (your first name) and (then just continue your opening without waiting for them to say anything, you don’t want to give them the opportunity to end the call before you have said what you called to say). If you use their first name and your first name only, they’ll be wondering if they ever met you or when they met you and be more interested in listening to you which gives you the opportunity to get your information out there!

I find that this is the most effective way to deal with calling leads. Go ahead, practice first on a friend, then go for it! Don’t be afraid, what’s the worst that can happen? They hang up? What if they ask for more information … there you go…. that’s what you want!

But exerise is not the only way to build that body beautiful. It also entails certain amount of responsibility on the foods one chooses to eat. Being healthy and fit requires one to observe diet fitness.

Diet fitness is as essential as exercise itself. Diet for fitness provides the essential nutrition one needs to restore worn-out muscles and for healthy growth. Diet fitness should never be taken for granted. With the popularity of keeping fit, many different views, methods, programs and dieting strategies have been formulated by many professionals. Among these are high carb diets and high fat diets. Whih one is more effective and which one should one choose to follow?

First thing to know would be the fundamental differences between these two diet approaches. As the name implies, high carb diets concentrates on taking in carbohydrate-rich foods while high fat diets endorses fat-rich foods. High carb diets are utilized to glycogen stored in the liver and muscles. Glycogen is a glucose complex that provides large amounts of energy ready for use in anaerobic exercises.
