Experiment Shows Importance of Omega-3 Fatty Acids

The importance of omega-3 fatty acids, as part of your diet, are becoming more prevalent as more and more studies begin to surface. Diets typical of modern America - ones high in omega-6 fatty acids and low in omega-3s - are linked to higher risks of cancer, diabetes, and immunity disorders.

Taking a daily omega-3 supplement, and lowering your omega-6 intake, is even more critical after seeing the effects of an experiment done by University of British Columbia.

Lab studies indicate that the associations between high omega-6 intake and low omega-3, reflects real influences that various patterns of omega-3 and omega-6 fat intake exert over the risks of major chronic diseases.

Both of omega-6 and omega-3, fatty acids are essential to your health. Each one plays a different but critical role in inflammation, metabolism, and vascular health. While high omega-6 intake is not bad, it's the omega-imbalance, especially low omega-3 intake that causes the most damage.

In the experiment,

"pediatric researchers fed one of four milk formulas to groups of infant pigs, to simulate the effects of different maternal intakes of omega-3 and omega-6 fats (Novak EM et al. 2008).

In all cases, the piglets’ formulas contain only short-chain omega-3s (ALA) and omega-6s (LA).

The body must first convert these short-chain forms to long-chain omega-3s (DHA and EPA) and omega-6s (AA) before they can be used to build brain cells (neurons) and promote connections between brain cells (dendrites).

Fish fat and oil are the only significant food sources of the long-chain omega-3s (DHA and EPA) essential to human health.

Most of omega-3 fat in most Americans’ diets is the short-chain, plant-source omega-3 called ALA, small amounts of which occur in leafy greens, flaxseed/oil, walnuts, grass-fed meats and poultry, and canola oil.

The results affirmed the indications of prior research, showing that the imbalanced Contemporary diet, which was very high in omega-6 ALA, reduced brain levels of omega-3 DHA and yielded high levels of long-chain omega-6s in the brain."

If you're looking to incorporate more omega-3-fatty acids into your diet, fish is your best bet. The purest choice fish include canned sardines or mackerel, wild Alaskan salmon and sablefish, and small, troll-caught tuna.

If you're not a fish eater, TriVita's Omega Prime is a supplement that gives you the needed omega-3 fatty acid to maintain a healthy omega-3 balance.

TriVita's Omega Prime contains a premier and unique blend of four different types of the most highly regarded Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) oils – Fish, Flaxseed, Evening Primrose and Perilla Seed. It also uses only contaminant-free fish oil that has undergone a 10 stage distilling process.

Omega Prime's EFAs support our wellness in so many ways, starting with helping to reduce runaway inflammation. Many of us don't realize this, but runaway inflammation can lead to various serious health problems in the body involving the heart, arteries, lungs, joints and more.

Omega Prime helps meet the American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines. One daily dose of Omega Prime provides the amount of Omega-3 recommended by the AHA for healthy individuals, as well as for those who have heart disease or the risk of it.

Weigth Loss

With all the attention on weight loss in our world, it’s important to remember that there is more to weight loss than simply counting calories. Caloric quality is a more important focus than quantity.

The idea is to focus on health; balanced weight is the natural byproduct. Eating for balanced health and weight loss involves an appropriate amount of protein, quality carbohydrates, healthy fats, oils and snacks.

Protein:
Protein builds and repairs muscle, allows optimal immunological function and stimulates the body to release a necessary hormone called glucagons. Hard-boiled or poached eggs, 2% organic unsweetened yogurt, chicken, turkey, tuna, salmon and other cold water fish are all exceptional examples; palm size is the perfect amount for each meal.

Carbohydrates:
With diabetes on the rise, people are increasingly aware that the wrong type of carbohydrates (white stuff) causes an overproduction of insulin leading to toxic side effects. Favourable carbohydrates include vegetables (except corn and carrots), fruits (except bananas, raisins and dates) and whole grains like brown rice, oats or rye.

Good Fats fior Weight Loss:
Remember, it takes fat to burn fat – but all fats are not equal. Two types of fats fall into the “good fat” category: monounsaturated fats and omega-3 fats. Monounsaturated fats are from olive oil, nuts like almonds and cashews and avocados. Omega-3 fats come from fish, fish oils, hemp seeds, walnuts, flax seeds and oil.

Snacking is necessary for weight loss!
Snacking helps to regulate and boost metabolism, balances blood glucose levels and reduces levels of triglycerides in the bloodstream. High-fiber, healthy fat snacks will help you stay energized until your next meal.

Mens Health Trivita Daily Men

Mens Health Trivita Daily Men

Why has mens health become such an issue these days? There are a lot of possible reasons.

There is still a thinking among some men that to show pain or emotion is a sign of weakness. When you are dieing of cancer because you did not want to show any weakness earlier when you had a little pain. Is that intelligent or what? Generally when the body shows a little pain it means that there is something wrong with the body, it is not weak to check it out. Many deaths from cancer could have been prevented if earlier remedial action was taken.

Fortunately younger men today are showing or expressing more emotional feelings to both other men and women.

Emotions are an essential element in mens health as well as in womens health. Historically men have not been as perceptive in showing their emotions as women have done and still do.

These are:
1. To give and rceive love. Heart focused simcere and positive feelings boost the immune system.
2. Be forgiving - as you let go of negative feelings towards others you will find an inner peace and optimism.
3. Practice gratitude - gratitude brings instant joy, builds physical defences and reduces stress.
4. Develop acceptance - when you practice acceptance it clears your mind of needless worry, allowing you to enjoy life.

Trivita developed Daily Men specifically with mens health in mind. Daily Men has Saw Palmetto which is known to hep reduce an enlarged prostate which is a typical concern of mens health.

You can find more about Trivita Daily Men at the Trivita shop and also purchase it there. All Trivita product is third party tested, is of pharmaceutical grade and has a 60 day money back guarantee. Trivita works towards improving both womens and mens health constantly and is soon to introduce a product range called Sonoran Bloom.

TriVita – Cheers to those with a glass half full

TriVita – Cheers to those with a glass half full

Optimistic people have something to smile about – a longer life!

None of us like the thought of getting older, although it is inevitable.  In the age of Botox and other cosmetic procedures, you can alter your physical appearance to keep yourself looking younger.  But the way you perceive yourself can make a big difference in the way you age and your longevity.

The mental health connection
We are all familiar with lifestyle changes that can promote healthy aging, such as exercise, proper nutrition, supplementation and not smoking.  We have those things ground into us in everything we read or see on television.  However, there are also psychological characteristics, which can help predict life span.  Some research has shown that people who are relatively more depressed, hostile or anxious are unlikely to live as long as others.

How do you respond to stress?
Stress in itself is not ultimately what harms us – it’s our perception of stress that often makes the difference between health and wellness.  Driving to work in 110 degree heat only to discover you have a flat tire and an expired AAA card can destroy your entire day, if you allow it to do so.  You see, you do have a choice in controlling your mood and your attitude.

Optimism and moods
Have you ever been in a bad mood, only to have someone ask you if you are?  What does that do?  It puts you in an even worse mood!  Mood influences the positive or negative thoughts that dominate your brain.  It filters how we see things in particular situations.  There are ways people can lift their moods:

• When bad things happen, try to take them less personally, find reasons why they might have happened and work to fix the situation

• Compare yourself to others who are in worse situations

• Use exercise, deep breathing or relaxation techniques.

Why do optimists live longer?
It is possible that optimists may have more effective coping strategies than pessimists.  They often seek out the help of family and friends when facing a difficult situation, are more likely to make healthful lifestyle choices, and listen carefully to the recommendations of their healthcare providers.

Being realistic
Do the phrases positive thinking or seeing the bright side turn you off or annoy you?  Rather than worrying about being optimistic all the time and being blind to reality, it’s more important to learn to turn your negative thought patterns into positive ones.  Not everyone is born an optimist, and it is not realistic to expect that everything will always turn out for the best.  However, it’s unhealthy to always expect the worst.

There is still hope
If you find yourself creating negative scenarios that prevent you from making constructive plans for your future, talk to someone you trust about your outlook.  Becoming optimistic does require belief, hope and determination – things we’re all capable of.  You may not be in the place in your life you would have hoped at this age, but remembering the happy times, setting some achievable goals and giving yourself something to look forward to may lift your spirits and lead you into a longer, healthier life – no matter what your age!

TriVita – Amazing Adaptogen Plants that help your body adapt to everyday stress

TriVita – Amazing Adaptogen Plants that help your body adapt to everyday stress

The fascinating story behind our Adaptogen formulation
By Brazos Minshew, TriVita’s Chief Science Officer

I began my work with adaptogens as a student in 1977.  By 2005 – almost 30 years later – this long-held curiosity finally culminated in the development, formulation and market introduction of TriVita’s Adaptogen 10 Plus.  Since then, this exceptional natural product has improved the lives of countless people.

So, what is it about this remarkable product that makes it so popular?  And what are the main benefits of Adaptogen 10 Plus if you use it regularly?

It all begins with adaptogens
These extraordinary plants draw their unique characteristics from their harsh surroundings.  They were first discovered in Siberia in 1908 where a comet had hit the earth, super-heating the air and exploding with such force that entire forests were leveled.  This tremendous explosion completely sterilized this vast region, preventing anything from growing there.

Even without a comet explosion, Siberia is a harsh environment for vegetation.  Only the most robust plants grow there, and only under the best of circumstances.  After the comet explosion sterilized the soil, years went by before plant life once again returned.  The only ones that could regenerate and flourish were those that could adapt to stressful conditions.  Then it was discovered that the people who ate this vegetation as part of their diet showed an incredible resilience to their harsh, formidable environment.

Studies of these plants continued for decades.  Dr. Nicolai Lazarev “decoded” the ingredients within these plants that gave “stress resistance” to people who ate them.  It is said that he tested, decoded and classified more than 4,000 adaptogenic plants from around the world, using a simple three-point standard.  For a plant to be classified as adaptogenic, it must:

• Be non-toxic in the body

• Increase the body’s resistance to physical, chemical or biological stress

• Normalize the body’s physiology.

For example, if stress causes someone to have too much acid in their stomach, an adaptogen must help the body reduce it.  Conversely, if someone has too little acid, that same adaptogen must help the body increase it.  The same is true for blood pressure: bring it down if it’s too high; bring it up if it’s too low.  Amazing adaptogens offer outstanding health benefits!

Of course, Siberia is not the only harsh environment on earth.  Other extreme locations also produce plants with adaptogenic qualities.  As I learned more and more about these astonishing plants, I began to envision a way to bring them all together − in one single product.  Knowing full well about the disastrous effects inflicted upon the human body from long-term stress, I was driven to find the right formula to help address these stressors.

Bringing it all together
There are only 10 known adaptogens.  But there are many thousands of plants that can benefit stressed out people even though they aren’t adaptogenic.  Antioxidants help the body stay healthy, fight free radical damage and boost your immune system.  Our Adaptogen 10 Plus contains OptiBerry, a proprietary blend of antioxidants extracted from berries and other prime sources of antioxidants.

When a person is under chronic stress, switches in the brain turn on the systems needed to help the body cope, and turn off the systems considered “unnecessary.”  One of the first systems turned off by stress is digestion.  This action creates a big problem.  It means that even though we may have an exceptional remedy to help deal with both the direct and indirect effects of stress, it can’t get into the body because the digestion switch is turned off.  So I overcame it by borrowing a page from the playbook of Integrative Medicine.

Integrative Medicine has found that Aloe Vera can help relax a tense digestive system.  This helps nutrients and medications to be absorbed, even when the body is under extreme stress.  There it was – the answer to our digestion roadblock.  So we added Aloe Vera to our adaptogen/antioxidant blend, and “voila,” perfect harmony!

If you are feeling the effects of stress (or if you want to help prevent them in the first place), then trust the science that delivers the true stress protection of adaptogens, and super fruit antioxidants and Aloe Vera: TriVita’s Adaptogen 10 Plus.

Mens Health Trivita Daily Men

Mens Health Trivita Daily Men

There are many basic things you can as a man improve your health. Mens health depends on many things.

Some of which are:

1. Breath deeply
2. Drink water
3. Sleep peacefully
4. Eat nutritiously
5. Be active

In todays fast paced world we often do none of the above. Our breathing is shallow, we drink very little water, burn the candle both ends so get very little sleep, we eat out or take out meals to go and as for watching TV or sitting at the computer we are not active.

Trivita recognises that mens health need require a balanced nutrition base that has been specifically designed just for men. Trivita developed Daily Men a multi vitamin that has 25 whole food concentrates and a proprietory blend just for men. This blend includes Essential Fatty Acids, Saw Palmetto, Choline Bitartrate, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Citrus Bioflavonoids, Astragalus (root), licorice (root), Pumpkin Seed, Stinging Nettle and Korean Ginseng (root). Some of these help with keeping the prostate healthy and the sexual organs functioning. Both of which men are keenly aware and want to be functioning as best they can.

Daily Men also compared to other multi vitamins provides higher levels of vitamins B, C and E which help with the health of the heart or cardio vascular health.

Now if men do all of the above activities as in breath deeply, drink water, sleep peacefully, eat nutritiously and are active plus supplement their diet with Trivita Daily Men their health will be much improved.

Trivita Daily Men can be purchased at the Trivita Shop.

Your Risk of Blood Clots

 

What You Can Do To Reduce Your Risk of Blood Clots
Over 300,000 people in North America die each year from stroke.
Another 700,000 die each year from heart attack. The most common type of both stroke and heart attack is ischemic disease,
 caused by a blood clot. Damage occurs when the blood clot reduces – and then totally blocks – circulation in an artery.
The tissue nourished by that artery begins to die almost immediately.

The nature of blood clots
Blood clots are a miracle when they occur in the right place at the right time. If a blood vessel is injured it sends out chemical
distress signals that cause platelets to seal the leak. Platelets are small, white cells that are normally very slippery.
They become sticky when the lining of the blood vessel (the endothelium) is damaged.
The endothelium sends chemical messages to the platelets.
The platelets send chemical messages to attract fibrin proteins.
Fibrin proteins are like string that becomes very sticky and ties the groups of platelets together.
This is an immature or “white” blood clot.
If the leak is not sealed by this “white” clot, larger red blood cells are tied to the platelets by fibrin to form a “red” clot.

Blood clots in the wrong place – at the wrong time
Problems occur when these clots happen in the wrong place at the wrong time. For example, one probable cause of
migraine headaches is inappropriate communication between blood vessels and platelets. If a single blood vessel cramps
or spasms it can signal platelets to become so sticky that they restrict circulation in the rest of the brain. Ischemic strokes
and heart attacks are often caused by mature red clots breaking free of the injured area and blocking arteries in the heart or brain.

Interestingly, blockages from blood clots can occur in any area of the body. For instance, a person can have a “stroke”
that injures the lungs or kidneys. Deep vein thrombosis in the legs is the exact same kind of vascular disease that causes
stroke or heart attack.

The key to preventing damage is to make sure that the clots form only when and where they are supposed to.
This is only possible with accurate communication between the endothelium in the blood vessels and the clotting
mechanisms in the red blood cells, platelets and fibrin. Simple nutrients can have profound effects on improving this
communication – and I make several suggestions later in this report.

Working smarter, not harder
Blood thinners force platelets and fibrin to ignore clotting signals from the endothelium. When a person is having a
stroke these drugs are life-saving because the blood vessels, platelets and fibrin are getting the message to clot in
the wrong place at the wrong time. One new class of drugs triggers the release of nitric oxide to open the blood vessels.
 Nitric oxide also helps the blood vessels, platelets and fibrin proteins communicate clearly.
To prevent blood vessel miscommunication in the first place, high nitric oxide levels are needed.

Nitric oxide is made from nitrogen; nitrogen comes from fruits and vegetables. Eating up to nine servings of fruits
and vegetables every day will make your clotting system very smart! Plant-based foods have been proven to
improve your health – including the health of your circulatory system.

Smart nutrients
Adaptogen 10 Plus®
Dr. Nathan Bryan, cardiologist and specialist in nitric oxide communication, recommends Adaptogen 10 Plus
to help increase nitric oxide. Adaptogen 10 Plus also helps protect against stress.
Stress alone – without any help from cholesterol – causes blood vessel spasms which may result in blood clots.
So, a good first step in improving the health of your circulatory system is to eat your fruits and vegetables every day
and take whole-food supplements like Adaptogen 10 Plus.

OmegaPrime®
Essential fatty acids such as those in OmegaPrime can help keep the platelets from getting sticky at the wrong time.
Dr. Dwight Lundell, cardiologist and specialist in bypass surgery, recommends the Omega-3 EFA in OmegaPrime
as a prime tool to help protect against inappropriate clotting. We need 1–4 grams of Omega-3 every day (2–6 OmegaPrime soft gels).

HCY Guard®
Dr. Kilmer McCully, cardiologist and specialist in vascular health, recommends the protective nutrients found in HCY Guard
to help your body reduce homocysteine (HCY). HCY is one culprit in forming clots at the wrong place and time.
Taking a single HCY Guard sublingual lozenge daily can help your body reduce homocysteine up to 35% – in as little as 42 days!
Other nutrients such as Vitamin E, turmeric and ginger, and Vitamin C all provide information for your blood clotting system
to work smarter. Smart nutrients are the key to making good decisions about where and when to activate this miraculous system!
