Tips for a Balanced Diet of Natures Foods
The most important tip for healthy living is a balanced diet of rainbow colored foods, a joyful soul and regular physical activity. Often in our busy lives, this is hard to achieve. We take vitamin and mineral supplements to boost the metabolism and make up for a poor diet and vitamin deficiencies. However, what is your body deficient in?

Tips for a Healthy Body
Eat right, exercise, relax, wash and get a full nights rest to energize and maintain your body’s health. It is that simple. Don’t obsess on a singular area remember, “You are cool, because you are you! Now isn’t it fun to be a remarkable you?

Tips for a Healthy Heart and Soul
To create a healthy balanced life our mind, body, heart and soul should be in harmony. Our spirituality connects us with our core values, God, nature and each other which helps us reach a higher understanding of our purpose and to be our true-selves.

Spiritual growth is a journey to discover and awaken our soul, our inner spirit. When we become conscious and aware of our inner being, universal truths and core beliefs we realize and become who are meant to be.
By discovering who we are, we develop an inner power and strength that guides all the decisions we make. Spiritual growth is the basis of living free of tension, fear and anxiety, for a happy, healthy responsible harmonious life.

To walk the path of spiritual discovery, you do not need to become a hermit or go into the desert for forty days and forty nights, or fast until you have visions or make a religious pilgrimage. Just be you and satisfy those deep spiritual yearnings. Learn, practice and live your beliefs as you explore your inner growth and spirit, to become a happier stronger and more responsible person.

Tips for Life
Tips for life will arm you with tools for a lifetime of success. Tips for life lays a foundation from which to grow and become all you can be.

Be the Person You Wish to Be: Stand up and be YOU, for you are a unique, incredible person. You are the magic!

50 Ways To Change The Way You Think About Healthy Eating (Kindle Edition) newly tagged "health"

Written By Amazon Publisher on Thursday, August 30, 2012 | 10:56 AM




WELCOME TO THE LAST HEALTHY EATING COOKBOOK YOU WILL EVER READ.

Before you dive into this cookbook, there are two truths you should know right off the bat:

1). It is very possible to eat healthy food without forfeiting taste; and,

2). When we say taste, we don’t mean taste-like-air. We mean melt-in-your-mouth, recommend-to-all-of-your-friends, never-eat-a-candy-bar-again taste.

Most of us have tried to eat healthy at one point in time or another; we see the advertisements showing men and women being seduced by ninety calorie brownies, only to try it ourselves and discover that the brownie tastes like used cardboard.

We’d like to change the way you think about eating healthy. We’d like to prove that eating healthy can, in fact, taste so good that you’ll never want anything else.

If you’re reading this book, you obviously want to try something new. You haven’t given up on a healthy lifestyle. These fifty well-received recipes cover all the meals of the day, including snacks—and the occasional midnight snacks few of us can resist. Using the recipes as directed in this book will greatly contribute to a healthy lifestyle and you will still look forward to every meal.

A lot of these meals are interchangeable. You can just as easily make some of these for lunch as you can for dinner!

Enjoy, and happy cooking!

"This is a great cookbook because of the variety in recipes that you do not get with other cookbooks" - I Devour Book 4/5

"This book delivers on its promise. It offers recipes that are both healthy AND yummy" - B. Pepper 4/5

You are what you eat.

Most people believe that it is difficult to eat healthily without compromising on taste, convenience and money.

Based on my experiences as a dietitian, I was inspired to write a recipe book to encourage healthy home cooking based on fresh simple ingredients that offer variety, taste and flavor. I firmly believe that healthy food can be a breeze to prepare, taste great and is definitely very affordable!

With that in mind, this book was born. Maximum Flavor, Minimum Fat offers 61 healthy recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, soups, snacks and smoothies. These recipes are a compilation of my own culinary experiments. Now before you think that this is just going to be a book about salads and brown rice, let me assure you that the recipes include all-time favorites such as steak sandwich, beer-battered fish, ricotta pancakes as well as other exotic flavors including shrimp curry and chicken enchilada.

Maximum Flavor, Minimum fat offers comprehensive nutritional analysis and profiling for all the recipes to cater to your specific nutritional needs e.g. low calorie, high protein, diabetic-friendly. So whether you are trying to lose weight or just eat healthier, this book is definitely is a good starting point.

For those who still think that a healthy meal is some 97% percent fat-free microwavable frozen dinner that comes in a minute portion leaving you still hungry after craving for more, it is time to throw on an apron and start cooking away.

Some of the recipes available in the book:

Breakfast
Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Wild Blueberry Compote

Written By Amazon Publisher on Saturday, July 7, 2012 | 3:32 AM




Weight loss advice, laughter, and inspiration from the delicious, caloric, yet uncomfortably large life experiences of a formerly fat man.

Allen Zadoff spent years reasoning that a big, healthy man should have a big, healthy appetite and that his rapidly increasing girth was no more than a regular guy thing.

At 350 pounds, however, it became clear that what had started as a little weight problem was destroying his life. Desperate to find a new way of living that would carry him into thin and beyond, Zadoff began to focus less on what he ate, and more on the physical and emotional underpinnings of what he came to understand as a disease. The pounds melted away, and so began the adventure of a lifetime.

Following Zadoff's incredible journey both up and down the scale, Hungry blends his personal story with surprising strategies for weight loss success; it is as laugh-out-loud funny as it is inspirational.

How To Give a Shit About Your Health: Straight-up advice for getting healthy, fit, and energized for life (Kindle Edition) newly tagged "health"

Written By Amazon Publisher on Wednesday, June 6, 2012 | 7:35 PM




Owner and head fitness nut at Ki Health & Fitness in Vancouver, BC, Karina Inkster is a certified personal trainer with a Master's degree in Gerontology, specializing in health and aging.

Karina has been weight training, swimming, running, cycling, and power yoga-ing her way to fitness since 2003. Karina deals with a potentially life-threatening allergic condition which prohibits her from training after having eaten within 8 hours, in case a food triggers a serious allergic reaction when coupled with exercise. She also faces severe seasonal allergies and asthma that limit her activity for 5 months each year, as well as weekly allergy shots after which she can't train - again due to anaphylaxis risk. Yet, with careful planning and unwavering dedication, she trains consistently 6 days per week (even while in full time graduate school and working 3 jobs).

Karina understands the many challenges involved in maintaining an active lifestyle, and aims to live by example in overcoming her own obstacles. She helps clients to enjoy working out, and to fit regular exercise into their busy lives.

When she's not lifting weights, swimming, running, working with clients, or writing, Karina plays Australian didgeridoo and piano, designs and creates jewelry, makes paper art with Origami and paper filigree (a.k.a. quilling), or cranks up her favourite reggae music.

When Doctors Don't Listen: How to Avoid Misdiagnoses and Unnecessary Tests (Hardcover) newly tagged "health"

Written By Amazon Publisher on Sunday, September 2, 2012 | 12:30 PM




"This is a well-written book on an innovative approach to healthcare reform: it challenges patients to take charge of their health and every medical encounter with their doctor. An important topic and an important book--I encourage my patients to read it."
—Siddhartha Mukherjee, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer

"I have always said that a hospital can kill you as sure as cure you. You must be your own best advocate. Follow the advice of Drs. Wen and Kosowsky…and transform from being a patient to an advocate for your own health."
—Fran Drescher, actor, producer, activist, and author of Cancer Schmancer

“It’s critical for patients to advocate for their own health.  This book teaches you how…Read it; it will change radically how you approach your doctors.”
—Melissa Etheridge, Grammy Award-winning musician and host of The Melissa Etheridge Radio Show

“This clearly-written, brilliantly and creatively thought-out book, filled with fascinating and horrifying examples of how doctors are now trained to not listen to their patients in order to ‘rule out’ diseases, focuses on ‘ruling in’ diagnoses that not only are accurate, but that will save billions of dollars per year in lawsuit-driven tests. A brave, terrific, essential work.”
—Samuel Shem, M.D., Ph.D., author of The House of God and The Spirit of the Place

"Leana Wen and Josh Kosowsky have written an authoritative guide to answer a seemingly simple question: How should you talk to your doctor?  Through fascinating examples taken from their own clinical experiences, they show how doctors’ training fails to teach real listening skills.  But Drs. Wen and Kosowsky don't stop there: They also offer up constructive and practical advice that just might save your life."
—Darshak Sanghavi, MD, Chief of Pediatric Cardiology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, health care columnist for Slate, contributing editor at Parents magazine, and author of A Map of the Child: A Pediatrician's Tour of the Body

“Their proposal for ‘diagnostic partnership’ is a major contribution of this courageous book in which common sense plays the leading role.”
—Julio Frenk, MD, PhD, Dean of the Harvard School of Public Health

“A powerful appeal for individualized medical evaluation based on an active partnership between doctors and patients. The rational, mutual approach to diagnosis advocated by Drs. Wen and Kosowsky is the antidote for mindless and wasteful routines that all too often replace careful listening and focused assessment of each patient.”
—Harvey V. Fineberg, M.D., Ph.D., President, Institute of Medicine

“Exposes the stereotypic physician following cookbook recipes to liberating a new frontier in the ‘art’ of humanistic medicine that empowers patients and physicians alike.”
—Lincoln Chen, MD, Director, Global Equity Center at Harvard Kennedy School of Government

“Not only offers a compelling argument for revitalizing this touchstone of good medicine, but also provides a comprehensive guide for how doctors and patients can improve the quality of healthcare by doing so.”
—Jordan J. Cohen, MD, Professor of Medicine and Public Health, George Washington University, and President Emeritus, Association of American Medical Colleges

"This is an important contribution to helping both physicians and patients more effectively manage their encounters.  The authors make it clear that ‘more medical care’ may frequently be harmful to a patient's health.”
—Robert Graham, MD, Professor of Family and Community Medicine, University of Cincinnati

“This book is a must read for informing the dialogue about health care reform and transforming medical education. Its humanistic authors provide support for re-integrating the lost art of humanism with more scientific medicine. The authors’ passion for the individual behind the illness is contagious.”
—Afaf I. Meleis, Ph.D., DrPS (hon), FAAN, Margaret Bond Simon Dean of Nursing, University of Pennsylvania

"Doctors take an oath to do no harm. Yet more than ever, modern medicine makes healthy people sick. Emergency physicians Leana Wen and Josh Kosowski make a passionate argument for patients to get involved and informed about their care. A fast, smart read to help you take charge of your health."
—Audrey Young Crissman, MD, author of What My Patients Taught Me: A Medical Student’s Journey

"Evidenced based medicine, clinical guidelines, and diagnostic algorithms have been widely adopted as an answer to inconsistent and out-of-date medical practice. Drs. Leana Wen and Joshua Kosowsky make the case that the resultant algorithms-gone-wild syndrome seen in many medical settings today actually drives imprecise and wasteful testing, muddled diagnoses, and patient confusion. They argue that these clinical behaviors are at the heart of our “morbidly obese” medical care system and that thoughtful physicians relying on patient narratives and diagnostic common sense will create a leaner medical care system and better patient outcomes. Theirs is a contrarian and compelling case with the wellbeing of millions of patients and $250 billion a year riding on it."
—Fitzhugh Mullan, MD, Murdock Head Professor of Medicine and Health Policy, The George Washington University

“When Doctors Don’t Listen by Drs.Wen and Kosowsky have insightfully crafted a revelation about the workings of modern medicine. It addresses with a finely nuanced balance the basis for our dysfunctional “cookbook style" of medicine. The analysis is not a critical pontification by outsiders, but a pained view by deeply informed insiders. The book pleads powerfully for the disenfranchised patient. It must be read both because most of us sooner or later are bound to seek health care and because the authors provide an important viewpoint for the intensifying nationwide health care debate."
—Bernard Lown, MD, Professor emeritus Harvard School of Public Health, Senior Physician emeritus Brigham and Women's Hospital, Nobel Peace Laureate 1985

“What a brilliant concept – this outstanding book provides an innovative and interesting approach to understanding how physicians interact with patients presenting with an illness and reach a diagnosis. Using a case-based approach followed with careful analysis of the process by two experts in the field of Emergency Medicine, clarity and transparency are provided to one of the most complex areas of medicine, how the physician develops the framework for a diagnosis and orders tests to prove it. Drs. Wen and Kosowsky have given the non-medically trained reader a variety of common scenarios for presentation to the Emergency Department. Physicians often reach a wrong diagnosis by following set pathways hard-wired from years of training and experience. Unfortunately, key words or phrases from the patient which lead the physician down a “typical” pathway for an illness can trigger the wrong answer and result in a large number of expensive, time-consuming, and potentially harmful tests. By teaching the patient the importance of providing the essential information on their illness to the physician, and making sure the physician actually listens to them, the likelihood that the physician makes the correct diagnosis increases substantially. This excellent book contains a literal treasure trove of information which will be beneficial and educational for patient and physician alike. As popular as the ED has been over the last two decades, pictured in television shows such as “ER” and other medically oriented television series, I anticipate this book will be widely read, very successful, and often quoted, not only by the lay public but also the medically-trained care providers who strive to listen better to their patients.”
—W. Brian Gibler, MD  FACEP, FACC, President and CEO, University Hospital, Senior Vice President, UC Health, Professor of Emergency Medicine, University of Cincinnati College of Medicine

Toe Reading - Are You Walking Your Destined Path? (Paperback) newly tagged "health"

Written By Amazon Publisher on Tuesday, September 4, 2012 | 7:36 PM



Toe Reading is the metaphysical understanding that the direction and formation of the toes are the physical printout of the path a person's life has taken. The toes are one of bodies' depositories for stories and emotions. KC Miller author of the self-published book, Toe Reading: Are You Walking Your Destined Path is taking the country by storm with what is becoming known as a Toe Reading phenomena. KC Miller was featured on MTV's #1 dating reality program NEXT as a Toe Psychic. Dozens of article have been published about her work as a Toe Reader and the revealing information that your sole/soul holds. KC is the Founder and Director of the Award-winning private college, Southwest Institute of Healing Arts, one of the largest providers of holistic healthcare education in the country.


This book is so interesting, insightful and educational. I had the pleasure of seeing the author in a seminar last year. She is very upbeat and looks so healthy. It makes you want to know what she knows:) Each of our toes tells a story about our life - positive and negative experiences. When you become aware of how events and attitudes affect your toes and that you can do things to change and better your life it is empowering. A great read!

Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers: An Updated Guide to Stress, Stress Related Diseases, and Coping (2nd Edition) (Perfect Paperback) newly tagged "health"

Written By Amazon Publisher on Friday, September 21, 2012 | 4:04 AM



 


Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers: An Updated Guide to Stress, Stress Related Diseases, and Coping (2nd Edition) [Perfect Paperback]


25 new from $5.24 95 used from $1.75

Combining cutting edge research with a healthy dose of humor and practical advice, Sapolsky explains how prolonged stress causes or intensifies mental afflictions.


Why don't zebras get ulcers--or heart disease, diabetes and other chronic diseases--when people do? In a fascinating look at the science of stress, biologist Robert Sapolsky presents an intriguing case, that people develop such diseases partly because our bodies aren't designed for the constant stresses of a modern-day life--like sitting in daily traffic jams or growing up in poverty. Rather, they seem more built for the kind of short-term stress faced by a zebra--like outrunning a lion.


With wit, graceful writing, and a sprinkling of Far Side cartoons, Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers makes understanding the science of stress an adventure in discovery. "This book is a primer about stress, stress-related disease, and the mechanisms of coping with stress. How is it that our bodies can adapt to some stressful emergencies, while other ones make us sick? Why are some of us especially vulnerable to stress-related diseases, and what does that have to do with our personalities?"


Sapolsky, a Stanford University neuroscientist, explores stress's role in heart disease, diabetes, growth retardation, memory loss, and autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis. He cites tantalizing studies of hyenas, baboons, and rodents, as well as of people of different cultures, to vividly make his points. And Sapolsky concludes with a hopeful chapter, titled "Managing Stress." Although he doesn't subscribe to the school of thought that hope cures all disease, Sapolsky highlights the studies that suggest we do have some control over stress-related ailments, based on how we perceive the stress and the kinds of social support we have.

    This is possibly the best anatomy-phys book I've ever read, and as a nurse I've read a few! Now don't get stressed out here! I truely mean it, this one is fun. No formulae to memorize, no complicated Krebs Cycles to navigate, no difficult Latin origin and insertion sites to locate, just pure fun. The author has the knack--no let's call it for what it really is, a rare gift--for taking the dry facts of biological functioning and making an amusing but clearly informative tale of it all. Dr Sapolsky has a purpose beyond the mere dissemination of information on anatomy physiology of humans, zebras, lab rats, or baboons to the lay person. His intention is to show that the modern lifestyle, and how the individual reacts to it, can have a major impact on health and even on the economy of the country. I'd recommend the book to anyone with an interest in how the body works as wonderfully as it does, to those who wonder why they get sick when they're stressed out but their neighbor never seems to, to those who want to lead a healthier lifestyle and need a little background information to get started, and to high school or college students who can't quite get into that biology class because the content seems too difficult--or just plain too boring--to manage.

    Smart Health Digital Pedometer Heart Rate Watch (Sports) newly tagged "health"

    Written By Amazon Publisher on Wednesday, September 5, 2012 | 1:38 PM

    Have you ever driven past one of those automated radar-measuring "Your Speed Is:" signs on a neighborhood road? Why put a sign telling you your speed, but not a cop writing tickets? Why does the Prius tell you your MPG dynamically why you drive? It's all about feedback. People drive slower in neighborhoods with speed signs and they drive more fuel efficiently when their car tells them their performance.

    Pedometers have exploded in popularity in recent years, with everything from cheap giveaways (from fast food restaurants no less) to GPS-based dynamic sports trackers costing hundreds of dollars. The idea is the same as the signs in your neighborhood or fuel efficiency in your Prius - feedback. By seeing how many steps you take, it encourages you to walk more and live a more active lifestyle.


    The Smart Health watch is a great idea - following the "Start Walking!" guide of Denise Austin, it encourages even the most sedentary people to get moving. Many reviewers here are panning the watch, and I'll get to that soon, but what it does is offer an affordable entry level product into the world of biofeedback.


    Now on to the watch itself - this is a product worth what you pay, about $40. It is certainly not as attractive of a sports watch as the Timex Men's T5J571 1440 Sport Digital Resin Strap Watch. It has a big black plastic face, plastic buttons, and a really 1980's looking LCD display. It is fairly easy to set, but does not have many functions typical of sports watches like a stop watch, alarms, or calendar. It does have a nice backlight that is reminiscent of Timex Indiglo.


    The watch counts steps and reports total distance walked and calories burned. It also measures heartbeat on demand by pushing a silver button. The heartbeat monitor works quite well and I might just keep the watch around for that capability - it's nice to get a quick pulse during a workout, walk, or even a bike ride.


    There is some advanced setup - you can input your age, gender, height, and weight to adjust the calorie calculation. You can also adjust the step sensitivity between low, medium, and high, in case you feel it is under or overcounting steps.


    Unlike other pedometers, there is no way to adjust stride length, but the manual says it does it automatically. I'm not sure about this - the accuracy seemed suspect compared to using a walking application on my iPhone with the GPS.


    The watch also comes with a 30-day trial of Denise Austin's website, and a guide on how to get started walking.


    The main downside of the watch looking drab and lacking other features is that you won't wear it all day, and likely will only put it on to go walking, defeating the idea of the walking lifestyle where you try to add steps all day in as many ways as you can (such as parking far away from the store). I suspect most will just put the watch on before leaving for a walk.


    Other reviewers have noted the watch is difficult to rate, and I agree. My review says it all, but if I were to boil it down, I'd have to say 4 stars. The low price is indicative of the quality you will get. To earn 5 stars, I'd like to see it at least add a few more features similar to other low-cost sports watches and also improve the all-plastic look. Bottom line - when you get more into it, you will buy a better watch. But the market needs entry products, and this is a fine one for that purpose.
