Posted in Fitness by admin on the September 26th, 2009

Placing the body in an aerobic state means, living or active only in the presence of oxygen. Which simply means to get ones’ heart rate to increase slightly for an extended period of time by continues movement.

Hot Flashes, Night Sweats and Palpitations

Posted in Women's health by admin on the September 25th, 2009

As women age, many experience sensations ranging from mild flushing to hot flashes, sweating, palpitations and chest discomfort. Severe symptoms are alarming and may be life altering due to sleep deprivation leading to exhaustion, stress and poor concentration. Daytime symptoms are frequently precipitated by stress, invariably occurring at a critical moment during a speech or closing of a sale.

Symptoms may be caused by a deficiency of progesterone, but more often a lack of estrogen. Estrogen causes cell multiplication (estrogenic effect) which is necessary to avoid shriveling, somewhat like a prune, but in excess may lead to fibrocystic breast disease, uterine fibroids, PMS, and possibly cancer (estrogen dominance).

Unsaturated fats are carbon(C) chains containing at least one C=C double bond. And because of the stereo chemistry of the remaining hydrogen atoms(H) in the trans conformation, this type of fat is easily oxidized in the body releasing free-radicals. Free radical are atoms or molecules of neutral charge have not filled their octet, and look for other molecules to bond with.

Posted in Children's health by admin on the September 23rd, 2009

Technology has played a large role in this increasing trend of unfit children as video games and television are two of the main causes of lack of exercise in children. This poor level of physical activity can develop into a routine that will last the child’s entire life.
