Get a Nutrition Tune-Up by Reliv in ( Nutrition , · Healthy Living Tips )

Most likely, you maintain your car with oil changes and other preventive services to keep it running smoothly for as long as possible. But is your body also on a maintenance and prevention plan so it runs at its peak and lasts longer? Good nutrition is vital to your long-term health and your quality of life. Starting today, give yourself a regular nutrition tune-up.

Add more of:

Whole grains.

Choose fiber-filled whole grain bread, cereals, brown rice and whole wheat pasta. You’ll feel more satiated and benefit from the added fiber and nutrition that are retained in whole grain foods.

Colorful vegetables.

The rainbow of veggie colors, especially dark green, red and orange, pack potent nutrients.

Fruits in nearly any form.

Fresh, frozen or canned are all good options but beware canned fruit in syrup since it’s high in sugar.

Calcium and vitamin D.

Go for low-fat or fat-free versions of milk, yogurt and cheese. Or choose fortified soy beverages. Supplements can meet your intake goals of calcium and vitamin D too.

Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats.

Look for canola, corn, olive, peanut or soybean oil, or plant-based foods such as nuts, seeds, avocados and olives. These are healthy fat options to replace solid, saturated fats.

Seafood.

Swap out meat and poultry more often with a variety of fish and seafood for a boost in omega-3s.

Cut back on:

Sodium.

Don’t exceed 2,300 milligrams of sodium per day — or just 1,500 mg per day if you’re over age 51; are African-American; or have a history of high blood pressure, chronic kidney disease or diabetes. Sodium is high in many processed foods and canned goods such as soups.

Sugar.

The American Heart Association says high intake of added sugars is linked to many health problems, including obesity, high blood pressure and other risk factors for heart disease and stroke. Women should limit their sugar intake to about 6 teaspoons of sugar a day; the limit for men is 9 teaspoons. Keep in mind sugar is in many foods and drinks. Just one 12-ounce can of cola has about 8 teaspoons of sugar — maxing out your sugar limit.

Solid fats, especially trans fats.

Skip fatty animal-based foods such as bacon, poultry skin, butter and whole milk products. Also avoid foods with partially hydrogenated vegetable oil (read: trans fats) often found in cookies, donuts and crackers.

Refined grains.

White bread, white rice and many commercial cereals have had the fiber and many nutrients stripped away and act like sugar in the body. Choose whole grains instead.

Tune-Up in a Can

An easy way to keep your body running in optimum condition is to fuel it with the premium, balanced nutrition of Reliv nutritional supplements. In addition to supplying essential vitamins and minerals, many Reliv products such as Reliv Classic® and Reliv Now® are rich in healthy soy protein.

Reliv also helps you cut back your sugar intake with zero-calorie Relivables® All-Natural Sweetener.

Smart Summer Snack

Nectarines: A Smart Summer Snack Reliv in ( Nutrition , · Healthy Living Tips )

The nectarine is the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) fruit of the month in July - and they're a great source of nutrients necessary for optimal health!

Vitamin A.

This retinoid plays a key role in cellular growth and vision.

Vitamin C.

This antioxidant is necessary for the formation of collagen in bones, cartilage, muscles and blood vessels. It also has been shown to prevent or reduce the duration of the common cold.

Fiber.

According to the U.S. National Cancer Institute, dietary fiber promotes longevity by decreasing risk of cardiovascular, infectious and respiratory diseases. Fiber’s widespread benefits also include aiding digestion and promoting weight loss.

Niacin.

This B vitamin helps convert carbohydrates into usable energy and plays an important role in the nervous system, digestive system. It also promotes skin, hair and eye health. Many studies show niacin may even increase HDL (good) cholesterol.

Tips for adding to nectarines to your day:

Shake-up breakfast. Add a cup of sliced nectarines and a cup of ice to your morning Reliv shake and blend. For a filling meal replacement, add a scoop of Slimplicity.

Snack on the go.

Grab a nectarine and a handful of Relivables Soy Nuts for a quick bite with plenty of fiber and protein.

Save for later.

To enjoy this summer fruit throughout the year, arrange whole or sliced nectarines on a cookie sheet and place in the freezer. Once frozen, store the nectarines in a plastic bag. When you’re ready to eat, run the nectarine under cold water to remove the skin. Prepare frozen nectarines as usual.

Simplicity

Dear Diary, Thank you for helping me lose weight Reliv in ( · Healthy Living Tips , · Weight Loss )

To lose weight, it’s important to pull together the right tools first. One essential basic is a food diary. Don’t write it off as an optional, “if I get around to it” part of your day. Keeping a food diary can have as much impact on weight loss as cutting out a giant bowl of ice cream every night.

A food diary can unearth not only what you’re eating and how much, but also why you’re eating. As a result, you can get to the root of where those sneaky pounds came from and how to best get rid of them for good. And you can track your progress to celebrate your successes!

Your best bet is to keep your food diary simple. Use your Reliv Slimplicity® “No-Cheat Sheet” or start a new food diary in a notebook. Keeping track of what you eat each day keeps you accountable and more mindful of what you’re putting in your mouth. And you’ll notice patterns, such as eating when you’re sad or bored. Your food diary will be a reality check — and a weight loss buddy.

Here’s what you need to record:

What you ate or drank:

Be honest about every bite and every sip. Several of those “throwaway” nibbles each day can add up quickly.

Portion size:

How big was that dollop really and how many chips did you eat? (Hopefully, you’ll realize it’s better to swap chips for something like apple slices…) This can be incentive to use measuring cups, spoons and your handy portion size guide.

Time:

Knowing when you ate can help you make sure you’re eating often enough (every three to four hours) to avoid binging, but also to help you realize you may be eating way too often. And you’ll recognize any danger zones.

Location:

Were you standing at the counter to eat? In front of the TV? Did you eat alone or with family or certain friends?

Hunger level:

Were you famished before you started? Or not really hungry at all?

Feelings:

How were you feeling when you decided to eat? Depressed? Bored? Happy?

Turn to Slimplicity for a complete weight loss system to help you win the battle of the bulge once and for all. The plan includes a satisfying meal replacement shake, Accelerator capsules to curb your appetite and rev your metabolism, online support with motivating tips and information, a food and exercise journal, and a pedometer to get you moving.

Move It For a Longer Life

Move It for a Longer Life Reliv in ( · Fitness , · Healthy Living Tips )

Do you know where your fitness level is? The more we learn, the more we realize how important it is to move our bodies. Inactivity brings spiraling health risks, especially when combined with a poor diet.

Sit on this: A 15-year study in the American Journal of Epidemiology found women who spent six hours a day sitting have a 37 percent higher risk of dying during that time period over those who spent less than three hours a day sitting.

Daily physical activity is a proven step to reduce your risk of developing or dying from chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and some cancers. Not to mention it helps you control your weight. Moderate daily activity for at least 30 minutes helps lower cholesterol, blood sugar, blood pressure and stress levels, improves bone health, improves flexibility and range of motion in joints, and reduces symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Examples of moderate activity:

• • Brisk walking
• • Weight lifting
• • Tai chi
• • Dancing
• • Golf
• • Cleaning house
• • Gardening
• • Softball

To take it up a notch, add jogging, climbing stairs, bicycling, swimming or tennis. Try taking a brisk walk at lunchtime to boost your fitness and increase your alertness for the rest of the day. If you’ve been sedentary for a while, build your activity levels gradually, even if you have to start with just 10 or 15 minutes at a time. Your goals should be to:

• • Improve your cardiovascular endurance by increasing your breathing and heart rate;
• • Strengthen your muscles by working all muscle groups at least twice a week through weight lifting or resistance exercises such as push-ups, abdominal curls and squats;
• • Improve flexibility by stretching.

Exercise’s Peppy Partner

A common reason people say they don’t exercise is that they just don’t have the energy to do it. That’s where nutrition comes in to play. A diet rich in protein and fiber, with healthy fats and a variety of fruits and vegetables, provides the necessary energy to fuel your commitment to exercise. At the same time, when you’re busy juggling family, work and social responsibilities, supplements can offer a way to shore up your body’s nutritional needs as you increase your activity level.

Reliv’s ProVantage® and Innergize!® provide the powerful nutrition you need to boost exercise performance and aid in recovery. 24K™ gives you an additional boost. This caffeine-free healthy energy shot contains 24 ingredients that work synergistically to tap into your body’s natural vitality. With increased energy, you’ll be pumped to get moving every day toward a healthier, longer life!

Healthy Aging Tips

3 Tips for Healthy Aging100 days ago by Reliv in ( · Healthy Living Tips )

From surgically-altered Hollywood stars — to advertisements for drastic anti-aging treatments, we constantly feel the pressure to stay young. But if we take care of our bodies from the inside, we can embrace aging instead of fearing it!

Challenge Your Brain. The saying “use it or lose it” applies to your brain. People often stop challenging their brains after retirement. Challenge your mind with the sudoku or crossword puzzle in the newspaper. Forcing those neurons to work in a fun way keeps you focused and alert. Healthy energy shot 24K™ can also help with your mental clarity and focus for those extra challenging Saturday morning crosswords.

Laugh Often. Laughter reduces stress hormones and releases endorphins — “feel good” hormones — in the brain. Laughing with others strengthens relationships, and studies have shown that strong friendships can increase your longevity.

Eat More Fat. Who would have thought anyone would tell you to add fat to your diet? Good fats like Omega-3 fatty acids are essential to keep your bones strong, reduce the effects of inflammation and contribute to healthy skin. Omega-3’s are found in foods like fish, pine nuts, avocados and ReversAge^®.

ReversAge is packed with essential nutrition for your body as it ages. Ingredients like Co-Q10, GPC and SAM-e help keep your brain sharp, your mood up and your body functioning to the best of its ability so you can enjoy vitality throughout your years.

Amazing Super Soy

My business has Dr. Carl W. Hastings with his scientist who work very hard on our nutritional products to bring you the most up to date research on nutritional information and keep improving and adding new products to improve your lives. Many people do not wish to believe how important nutrition is in our lives to be healthy, but today just living a healthy lifestyle and consuming a healthy diet is not enough our foods just does not have enough of the nutrients our bodies require. By no means is our products going to cure any illness or disease, but more nutrietns in your life may decrease some of your symptoms and give you more energy which is worth give a try. Any improvement in our lives when it comes to our health is well worth giving a try, by the way your taking NO RISK....30-DAY Money Back Guarantee if you do not feel any improvement using our products. Now for today's post is how soy is becoming Super Soy.



Soy and Women’s Health

An important recent study found that soy food consumption did not increase the risk of cancer recurrence or death among survivors of breast cancer. Women in the highest intake category of soy foods had a 9 percent reduced risk of mortality and a 15 percent reduced risk for recurrence compared to those who had the lowest intake level. Researchers used data from a multi-institution collaborative study called the After Breast Cancer Pooling Project. Breast cancer outcomes were assessed, on average, nine years after cancer diagnosis.

For postmenopausal women with hormone-sensitive breast cancer, another recent study showed those who consumed high amounts of soy isoflavones had a lower risk of recurrence. In addition, evidence suggests that eating soy during childhood and/or adolescence reduces breast cancer later in life.

Soy and Men’s Health

Researchers at Northwestern University have found that a new, nontoxic drug made from soy’s isoflavone genistein could prevent cancer cells in the prostate from spreading to the rest of the body. So far, the cancer therapy drug has worked in preclinical animal studies and now shows benefits in humans with prostate cancer.

Soy’s Benefits to Heart Health

Researchers have found that soy-based diets reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol and triglycerides and raise HDL (good) cholesterol. In 1999, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a health claim about soy protein and heart disease based on soy’s cholesterol-lowering effects. The claim states that “25 grams of soy protein per day, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease.”

Soy foods also help the heart when they replace other sources of protein such as animal protein. This substitution reduces overall saturated fat intake while increasing polyunsaturated fat intake, which lowers cholesterol levels.

In addition, soy isoflavones reduce heart disease risk by inhibiting the growth of cells that form artery-clogging plaque. This plaque can lead to a heart attack or stroke. Soy also improves the flexibility of blood vessels, while another study shows a diet rich in isoflavones may improve the function of arteries in stroke patients.

Put simply, soy is one amazingly healthy bean!

The Mighty Soy Bean

Soy contains significant amounts of all the essential amino acids for humans, and is also a good source of protein. The beans contain significant amounts of alpha-linolenic acid, omega-6 fatty acid, and the isoflavones genistein and daidzein.

Soy isoflavones are responsible for most of soy’s health benefits. Studies have shown isoflavones are true multi-taskers, tackling everything from promoting heart health, alleviating hot flashes associated with menopause, increasing bone density, and lowering the risk of prostate, colon and breast cancers. In addition, protein rich soy foods may help you lose weight and fat when substituted for other sources of protein.

Savor these Soy Safety Facts:

● Isoflavones in soy foods have no significant effects on hormone levels in men or women.

● Soy foods are safe for a developing fetus.

● Women who eat soy foods have a lower risk of developing breast cancer.

● No studies demonstrate a link between eating soy and breast cancer recurrence or tumor growth in humans.

● Soy foods protect against thyroid cancer and have no effect on thyroid function in healthy people.

Soy Remains at the Heart of Good Nutrition

Throughout my 35+ years as a food scientist, one food that has continually impressed me for its sheer health-promoting power is soy. Whole soy powder, like that found in Reliv’s nutritional supplements, is especially eff ective since it retains all of the protein, phytonutrients and isoflavones thought to reduce risk for many serious diseases.

Soy is the foundation of several Reliv products and has been an essential part of the Reliv nutrition Revolution since 1988. Yet it’s important to recognize that soy is just one important part of a total package. Soy alone offers an array of benefits ranging from menopause relief to disease prevention and weight loss. But it’s the additional ingredients that work synergistically to make soy such a powerhouse in our products.

Recently, soy foods were highlighted in the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Health and Human Services (HHS)’s 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommendations. These guidelines include recommendations to increase the intake of soy products and fortified soy beverages.

Others are finally catching on to what we’ve known for years about soy benefits. And research continues to show the many ways soy supports good health. So, cheers to your two Reliv shakes a day — you’re an official trendsetter!

To your health,

Dr. Carl W. Hastings, Reliv Vice Chairman & Chief Scientific Officer
