Joining the IPOD FITNESS CENTER and keeping track of my walks has helped me turn walking into a very good habit.  Working out by walking and taking VITALIFE, SECRETAGOGUE PLUS, and CELADON PLUS every day made me feel so much better and keeps me healthy.  

Thank you, Nancy, for your invitation and for all the center's support.                  

I take Vitalife Adaptogen first thing in the morning everyday. 

The benefits are amazing.  Adaptogens control the excess production of cortisol- anxiety and stress hormone produced by the adrenal gland. 

I have had high cholesteral for years and my Dr. convinced me to take a Statin drug to reduce it. The side effects were horrible and I told him I wouldnt take it anymore but would go on an excersize program. This was the same time as our June conf. He said it probably wouldnt work and I would be at the same cholesteral level in 3 months. Low and behold , 3 months later after walking everyday for 1-2 miles, I had reduced it and maintained 60 points. I havnt missed a day since June 2,07.   Bob Lowy

I am always on the lookout for simple messages that people can us to improve their lives.  Sometimes I think that people can get caught up in high profile sports or the exploits from our own youth and think that wellness and fitness can only be achieved by a regimented routine.  Granted, many do need to make some serious changes to right a sinking ship.  But for most, just a few small steps taken in our days lives can make a huge difference in feeling GREAT versus feeling...well, just normal.

Hi,

I just did my first exercise with Jacob (my 8 year old) and when I saw what I needed to do to set him up as my partner, I figured I better blog it so those of you with non IFC members can setup your partners. First thing is to visit the Sep Parti page and see if your team is setup.

Unfortunately, Nike+iPod only counts walking and running as excercise. I get in a least 4 hours of Tai Chi, an hour or two of hard martial arts, and several hours of japanese sword work each week. Too bad the pedometer gizmo isn't a bit more flexible in its software. Maybe the next version...

Went backpacking last weekend. Alas, it doesn't count toward my walking, as I don't feel comfortable carrying an iPod on the trail. Probably for the best, since we forded several rivers and I fell into at least one!

Not all vitamins are created equal!  Mom may have said, "take your vitamins," but she may not have known how important it is to be very choosy about which vitamins you take.

So are those knees hurting a little more since you've gotten serious about getting in shape or since you've been training for that marathon?   Here is an incredible help for any joint discomfort plus a great overall health booster.  Try Zeacaps from Viatalife Networks!  Zeacaps is the original nature source of Mucopolysaccharides and chondroitin sulfates, which help stimulate immune function and slow down joint deterioration.  It contains A, B Complex, D and E, multi minerals, high quality protein and all essential amino acids.  WOW!  Additionally, Zeacaps contain Omega-3 oil

OK, we all know about B12 shots for people who are feeling droopy, but did you know that a B12 defencency  is one of the most common causes of lethargy, that "I just can't keep going feeling."  B12 helps break down homocysteine in the body, helps reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke, promotes a more restful sleep, helps restore emotional balance, and prevents nerve damage and anemia.  These are all huge problems in our country.  Our brand contains Aloe Vera which is phenomenal for the stomach and digestion.  It's liquid, easy to take and great tasting.  Here'

What is it that the FDA says there is NO SAFE level for human consumption?....The answer is "trans fats". From the 4/06 New England Journal of Medicine....A 2% increase in energy intake from trans fatty acids was associated with a 23% increase in the incidence of coronary heart disease". Dietary trans fats lower the ability of blood vessels to dialate(less elasticity can result in hypertension) and they increase HDL (bad cholesterol). Trans fats are found in many baked goods, processed foods and fast foods (esp. fried fast foods).
