THE PERFORMANCE ADVANTAGE December 2006 Volume 1
To each and every one of you that is reading this or will be in the future, I want to wish you a happy and healthy holiday and may the magic of this time touch your innermost being and I hope you feel the connection that each of us has with each other. Yes we are unique and that makes us valuable. Our value comes from the unique contributions we bring to each other. Yes we are unique but we are one. Share this oneness with every one you come in contact with. Bless them for their uniqueness and their presence in your life. It is said in life there are no friends, no enemies, only teachers. Learn from and love one another. This magnifies our divine nature through our humanness.
How Long Will You Last?
In life we have two ages; our chronological age and our biological age. We cannot do anything about our chronological age. It progresses with time. It is how long we have been around. Our biological age can be ahead or behind our chronological age. We can be younger or older and we can either speed up the process or even reverse it. The average life-span now is about 77 years. At the turn of the 20th century (1899-1900) the average life span was about 49 years. That means in 100 years we have increased the life span by 28 years. That is incredible unless you look more closely. In 1900 many children and mother died in childbirth. They are included in the average. Very few statistically die in childbirth now. Researchers have concluded that with all our advances in medical technology if you factor out all the children who died at birth and recalculate the average, life span has only increased by about 5 years. However your quality and quantity of life is mostly determined by you through your lifestyle. Genetics plays a roll but you determine the outcome.
Statin Drugs Promise Falls Short
Cholesterol lowering statin drugs are used lower the risk of heart attack and stroke in people. They are the most widely used class of drugs in the US. They are prescribed to lower high levels of artery clogging bad cholesterol. The latest study from the Archives of Internal Medicine showed that the benefits of prescribing statins to healthy individuals to prevent cardiovascular disease fell short of expectations. They have shown to lower high levels of cholesterol in people already at risk for heart disease but using it in healthy adults was not cost-effective. Statins are also known to have side effects even when they lower the cholesterol levels including liver and kidney damage. Dietary changes, exercise and the use of certain natural supplements such as BIOS2 from Unicity have shown to be as effective as statins without the side effects.
YOU ARE VALUABLE
There has never been anyone like you ever. You have a unique look, unique fingerprints, unique perspective, unique intelligence and a unique destiny. That which is unique is more valuable. If there are many of the same the value is less. Therefore your value is priceless because you are a one-of-a-kind. Amid this human experience we called life you are a contributor and your contributions affect the whole of humanity. Who are you to withhold your value and hide it when it can be shared with others and bring richness. If you have ever questioned your worth, remember your uniqueness and how valuable you are because of who you are. Those who are truly seeking prosperity in all areas of their life know the secret to receiving that prosperity comes from the giving of their value to others first. By sharing first you receive last and usually in excess of what you gave. Through your life you will be given opportunities to give and receive. Do both with love and humility and your value will grow even higher.
GO ORGANIC
There is increasing evidence from around the world that organic food is the most healthful. With recent studies we now know the role that our eating habits contribute to our good health. Organically raised foods contain higher amounts of vitamins such as vitamin C, carotenes, minerals, and cancer-preventing substances called polyphenols. Organically grown foods are more flavorful than commercial foods. In regards to animal products such as meat and dairy, organically fed animals that avoid hormones and antibiotics avoid the cumulative affects that could be harmful. Organics products avoid carcinogenic chemicals such as pesticides. It is almost impossible to eat 100% organic foods but we can make better choices to buy organic when possible.
CHIROPRCATIC FOR KIDS
In a study from the Journal of Pediatrics it was reported that chiropractic care is the most frequently used holistic health care choice for children. The study showed the higher the education levels of the parents were the more likely they were to choose holistic health care such as chiropractic. Parents educated about how chiropractic works and its exceptional safety record are choosing to provide proactive health and wellness care to ensure the health of their children.
