Red's Health Tips

I attended a twelve-hour seminar today on improving my business and myself.  Myron Golden’s Six Figure Business School is one of the best business schools I have attended.  I am speaking tomorrow afternoon on health and nutrition.  I was asked today to speak at another event next weekend in Houston.  I look forward to that event also.

Today was long, but extremely worthwhile.  I had to leave NAS Belle Chase this morning because it is a Drill Weekend for Reservists.  The base had changed a lot since I was stationed there in the 80’s.  I am spending tonight at the old Naval Support Activity, which is now called Federal City – an unusual name.  I make it a point to stay at military bases if there are convenient.

Another typical day on my 28-day Fast Start Program.  Nothing different to talk about my energy levels, mental clarity or hunger.  I feel strong, think clearly and have no hunger pangs even thought I am eating much less than I did before I started on my new lifestyle.

I previewed my new book cover to a copy of associates and received very good reviews.  One minor tweak and I’m ready to send it to press.  I obtained some more information on electronic publishing that I will act on immediately upon returning to Houston.  I have been delayed in electronic publishing because of formatting issues.  I now have another track to take.

I listened to Myron Golden talk about his newly approved MLM pocket coach app for iPhones.  It got me to thinking about generating a weight loss app for iPhones and Androids.  Monetizing ideas creates new products that generate more money.

Oxidative stress prevents you from losing weight effectively.  Your digestive tract cannot operate correctly when overwhelmed with excessive inflammation or oxidative stress.  Omega-3 fatty acids fight this type of stress well.  Glutathione is made in every cell in your body.  Glutathione helps fight inflammation by providing hydrogen atoms to fight free radical damage.  Age and other factors decrease the amount of glutathione that you produce.  Foods or supplements help replace and stabilize your glutathione levels.

Natural sources of glutathione are asparagus, broccoli, avocado, spinach, raw eggs and garlic.  N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC), milk thistle (silymarine), Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA, curcumin and selenium help your body regenerate glutathione to healthy levels.

Many food products today contain 20-50% of the nutrient value compared to the same foods 60-80 years ago.  Food that used to provide 100% of your daily needs is not capable of providing that level of protection today.  As a result, you are forced to use supplements. 

The quality of supplements varies, so it is important to choose carefully.  One supplement may contain a basic chemical, such as Calcium, in one form.  Another supplement will advertise the same chemical, but in a different compound.  The choice of form (chemical composition) is important.  Some forms are more bioavailable to your body – they give you more of what you want.  Always check the content of the ‘serving size’ – don’t assume that one pill or capsule is what’s needed.
