A dog truly is man's best friend.
If you don't believe it, just try this experiment.
Put your dog and your wife in the trunk of the car for an hour.
When you open the trunk, see which one is really happy to see you!
Now that should put a smile on your face!
Maintaining a positive attitude about your efforts will help you stay motivated. Don't just concentrate on the number on the scale. Feel confident that you are also improving your health and longevity. As you make gradual changes, your mental and physical status will both change for the better. All of these factors should put a smile on your face.
Turn OFF your hunger switch!

Glutathione
Glutathione: The Next Household Word
You may or may not have heard of glutathione, even though over tens of thousands of medical articles have highlighted its importance. Optimizing glutathione levels will shortly join the list of factors known by everyone to have an impact on our health and well-being, along with vitamin supplementation and cholesterol regulation.
Glutathione is a small protein produced naturally in every cell of our body. It is made up of three protein building blocks, called amino acids. These are glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine. The cysteine amino acid contains a sulfur group responsible for the chemical properties of the whole glutathione protein.
Glutathione: An Essential Health AID
There are three major roles of glutathione in the body: Antioxidant, Immune booster, and Detoxifier. Even cells in the healthiest of individuals constantly need to replenish their glutathione supply.
The Master Antioxidant (AID)
Antioxidants participate directly in the destruction of reactive oxygen compounds called free radicals. These by-products of a cell's normal function can't be avoided, but exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun or other sources promotes their emergence. Free radicals have been linked to muscle fatigue during exercise and aging.
For this reason, the body is equipped with a variety of antioxidants. Vitamins C and E are natural antioxidants but do not occur naturally in the body. These and other antioxidants actually depend on glutathione to function properly, which is why glutathione is called "the Master Antioxidant".
Food for the Immune System (AID)
Glutathione helps build your immune system's resistance and improve your chances of staying healthy.
Lymphocytes are cells of your immune system. Glutathione is essential for lymphocytes to increase in number, produce antibodies, and function efficiently.
A Natural Detoxifier (AID)
Our food and water sources are becoming increasingly contaminated with chemicals, as is the air that we breathe. Supplemental detoxifiers such as glutathione help to counter the effects of the toxins we inhale and ingest.
By physically binding to toxic compounds in cells, glutathione helps make them soluble - and harmless. The body can then eliminate these disarmed toxins in the bile and urine.
Raise Glutathione Levels - But How?
The fact is, you can't ingest glutathione to feed it to your cells. Glutathione must be manufactured within your cells. What you can do is help this natural process by giving your body the glutathione building blocks it needs. The limiting factor in your daily intake of building blocks is the amino acid cysteine.
Cysteine, traveling alone as an amino acid through our digestive system, is poorly absorbed and very little of it will actually make the trip from our mouths to our cells. Luckily, when cysteine molecules bind to each other to travel in pairs, they can survive this process. They do this by forming a bond between sulfur molecules. These bonded cysteine amino acids are then called "cystine". Although this sulfur bond is resistant to the digestive process, it is easily broken if submitted to heat or mechanical stress.

Superbugs ‘are all over– not just in hospitals’
POTENTIALLY fatal superbugs are not confined to hospitals but are now invading homes, schools and gyms, scientists claimed last night.
A report in New Scientist says the infections are now lurking “just about everywhere”.
Robert Daum, a paediatrician at the University of Chicago’s Children’s Hospital was one of the first to warn of “community MRSA” in 1998.
He told New Scientist, “Everywhere it has come it has stayed and it comes to more and more places every day.”
It is thought young people, gym users and those involved in contact sports or living in close proximity – such as in prison – are the most vulnerable to the infections.
Community MRSA is not thought to be simply an escapee from hospitals because it has certain distinguishing features and is actually more virulent.
It is however usually susceptible to certain antibiotics that no longer work on hospital MRSA, although experts believe this could soon change.
Robert Skov, head of the Danish Centre for Antimicrobials and Infection Control in Copenhagen, told the journal, “Once these community strains get into hospitals, I would be surprised if they don’t pick up more resistance determinants.”
Hospitals in Wales and England are already advised to screen people scheduled to undergo certain types of surgery for superbugs. But some doctors now want all patients, and possibly even people just visiting emergency rooms, to be screened for the infections as well.
Richard James, director of the centre for Healthcare Associated Infections in Nottingham, said this would save hospitals money in the long term.
But Dr Daum believes the infections are already too widespread in the US for screening to have any effect.
In Scandinavia, the battle against MRSA has already been taken to the community in a bid to halt the infection spreading, with nurses sent to people’s homes to treat carriers and educate them about hygiene.
Dr Skov said, “Every case of MRSA, regardless of whether it causes infection or is just colonisation, is a transmission possibility. That means we should fight MRSA in the community too. If you don’t then you will have a silent pool who are continuously spreading it to other people.”
Doctors also fear the increasing invulnerability of these superbug bacteria could put medicine back to how it was before the advent of antibiotics. This regression would mean humans once again becoming defenceless against common illnesses such as pneumonia, according to the article.

New Silver Solution
This isn't your grandma's silver!
Silver has been used for thousands of years to keep water and foods safe. In 1924 the first patent was issued for "colloidal" silver. Colloidal simply refers to a fine dispersion of silver into water that doesn't settle or filter easily. You are probably familiar with the term colloidal silver, but you can imagine the technology used to create such a product in 1924. Since then most commercial silvers feature silver dispersions in the range of 300 to 3,000 parts per million, resulting in admirable antibacterial results.
Today, however, the newly patented silver sol technology features an engineered nano particle of specific size and resonance whose catalytic properties allow a single silver particle to neutralize pathogens continuously. While the old, homemade colloidal silvers are capable of destroying one pathogen per silver particle, it takes hundreds of times more silver to do what the New Silver Solution technology can do in far less concentrations- and the New Silver is absolutely safe!
Because of the size, resonance, concentration and other factors associated with the new patent, additional and deeper health benefits can be expected.
The New Silver:
...Kills 99.9% of most bacteria, yeasts and molds within 10 minutes
...Continues to kill pathogens with catalytic, not chemical action
...Can be used internally, as well as topically
...Has multiple mechanisms of action to ensure its efficacy
...Is non-toxic and safe at recommended levels
Buy some to day and see for yourself:

The Secret of Growing Old--and healthy!!
I am a fan of Dr. Weil and his beliefs. If you would like additional information on the benefits of Okinawa and the Coral, listen to these videos:
http://healthyagain.biz/lifevideo.html
You can also find information at my website: http://www.shopnutronix.com/abc37801
What Is the Secret of Growing Old?
Your diet could add decades to your life
By Andrew Weil , Dr. Weil is clinical professor of medicine at the University of Arizona and director of its Program in Integrative Medicine.
I've read that people in Japan live much longer than Americans do. If that's true, what's their secret?
It's true, but only in Okinawa, a Japanese island state. There, 34 people out of 100,000 live to be 100 or older. By contrast, in America 10 people per 100,000 make it to membership in the Willard Scott birthday club.
These centenarians' secret? Lifestyle, lifestyle, lifestyle. Though genetics (which you can't change) may contribute to longevity, lifestyle factors (which you can change) can determine how well people age and even how long they live. As proof, consider this: Okinawans who migrate to other countries and abandon their lifestyle habits have higher mortality rates (especially from cardiovascular disease) than do those who remain in Okinawa. According to the Okinawan Centenarian Study, elder Okinawans have low rates of heart disease, obesity, dementia, and breast and prostate cancers. And they have the longest disability-free life expectancy in the world. To emulate their success, here are five secrets to longevity.
Eat Like an Okinawan Centenarian
The most vivid difference between the long-lived Okinawans and us is how--and what--they eat. Every day they eat seven or more servings of vegetables, including dark leafy greens, seaweed, onions, green peppers, bean sprouts, and sweet potatoes; seven or more servings of mostly whole grains; two to four servings of fruit; and two or more servings of soy foods. They also drink several cups of green tea daily. At least three times a week, they eat a serving of fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
In addition, Okinawa's elders don't eat many dairy products or sweets, and they shun fast, processed, and junk foods. Men drink an average of two alcoholic drinks a day; women may have one--usually the distilled rice liquor Awamori.
Try to Hara Hachi Bu
Translation: "Eat until you are 80 percent full." The elders who practice this are lean, a trait that reduces the risk of chronic diseases. To practice hara hachi bu, try eating about half the portion you usually consume. Then wait 20 minutes--the time it takes for your brain to register that you're full. If you're still hungry, eat a little bit more and then stop. After a few days, you may realize that you can feel full on less food.
Stay Active
Okinawan centenarians regularly walk, garden, perform martial arts, and do traditional Okinawan dance.
Connect
Deep spirituality and powerful cultural beliefs are especially evident among the women centenarians (who outlive the men by 8 years). Okinawan women believe that their gods and ancestors watch over them; they pray to them for their health and that of their families. Their prayers are often meditative, and they might repeatedly murmur words like these:
I am one with the ancestors The ancestors are one with the gods The gods are one with the universe The universe is one with me
Be Taygay
Translated as "laid back," taygay reflects the typical Okinawan personality, which is easygoing and relaxed. As the study authors note, "nothing ever starts on time" in Okinawa.

Who Is Watching Over You?
I received this today and had to share, we all need someone to watch over us!
Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of passage?
His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him
alone.
He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the
blindfold until the rays of the morning’s sun, shine through it. He
cannot cry out for help to anyone. Once he survives the night, he is a
MAN.
He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must
come into manhood on his own.
The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild
beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some human might do him
harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat
stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he
could become a man!
Finally, after a horrific night, the sun appeared and he removed his
blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the
stump next to him. He had been at watch the entire night, protecting his
son from harm.
We, too, are never alone. Even when we don't know it, our Heavenly
Father is watching over us, sitting on the stump beside us. When trouble
comes, all we have to do is reach out to Him.
If you liked this story, pass it on. If not, you took off your blindfold
before dawn...
Work for the Lord - the pay isn't much but the retirement is out of this
world!!!

Labor Day, oops
Well I don't intend to be one of the Labor Day, work for a boss person!! I think the word labor went out the door with the new generation. People of my age, believed in working for your pay, we didn't go to work expecting to sit on our keyster, do nothing and get paid.

Oh, that dreaded "DIET" word...
I hope you are not like me and need to worry about everything you put into your mouth adding 5 extra pounds!! I hate diets, I love to eat!! I started a Water Arobics Class at the Recreation Center and have meet loads of great people, haven't seemed to loose those pounds but I have heard muscle weighs more than fat...well that is something!! Well enough rambling...if you need some help with weight lose, get back with me, I have natural products
Now for the tip of the day:
Make fitness a family affair. Take your kids or spouse on a walk after dinner. Round up the neighborhood kids for a spontaneous game of ball. There are plenty of things to do as a family that don't center around the television or the computer. Getting physical is a great way to bond. Not only are you spending quality time together, you're also burning calories in your spare time. Walking or horseplay with the kids for 20 minutes can burn 78 calories.

Stop Aching Joints
The Most Advanced Glucosamine Supplement for Joint Pain Relief
Soothes Aching Joints
Eight Nutrients for Joint Relief
Capsules for 100% Absorption
NuFlex includes 8 of the best-researched nutrients for joint care and repair.
• Ease the pain from Achy Joints (Shoulders, Knees, and Hips)
• Maintain Already Strong Joints
• Provide Building Blocks to Rebuild Cartilage
When your cartilage wears down, it loses its ability to act as a shock absorber. This results in stiffness and sore joints. NuFlex contains essential building blocks to help your body rebuild cartilage. Unlike pain relievers that only mask the symptoms, NuFlex offers real nutritional support for your joints.
Through cutting edge research comes a revolutionary pain-relief supplement that can help you rebuild and maintain healthy cartilage! NuFlex combines 4 powerful ingredients to relieve pain and support healthy joints.
Benefits for Athletes
Benefits for Athletes Sore knees, elbows and hips are routine for athletes. Even young athletes may be slowly wearing out their cartilage by the constant pounding of the knees and other joints. This accelerated destruction of cartilage may hinder optimal athletic performance or show itself later in the athlete’s life as serious joint pain.
Benefits for Seniors
This gradual destruction of cartilage also happens with age. However, this destruction can be slowed and even reversed by bathing the joints with the nutrients found in NuFlex.
Ingredients per 3 capsules
Glucosamine Sulfate 1500mg
Boswellia Extract 200mg
Chondroitin Sulfate 150mg
Tumeric 150mg
Quercetin 25mg
Methionine 25mg
MSM 25mg
Bromelain 25mg
* 30 day supply/90 capsule bottle
Glucosamine Research- The Science Behind Joint Relief
Did you know that cartilage in your knees is slowly wearing down? It’s a fact of life that as we get older our joints wear out. If you’re a current or ex-athlete this process dramatically speeds up. The result is severe joint pain, such as sore knees and aching hips.
The good news is that there’s something you can do about it.
Most products in the nutrition industry don’t live up to their hype. Products are usually “tall” on promises but “short” on results. It is rare that I get too excited about an ingredient.
Glucosamine has been the exception. The nutrient is derived from the shells of ocean shrimp. It’s the basic building block of larger molecules in cartilage. Many studies show it stimulates cartilage cells to make proteoglycans and collagen the basic blocks of cartilage.
Dr. Jason Theodosakis first recommended glucosamine for the treatment of osteoarthritis, (OA) in his book, The Arthritis Cure. Osteoarthritis is the progressive loss of cartilage leading to pain, and loss of joint function often leading to severe disability.
While many seniors and baby boomers are using glucosamine for osteoarthritis, a growing number of people are taking it to help preserve healthy joints. Athletes can slowly wear down their cartilage by the constant pounding of their knees and other joints. Football, running, wrestling, and basketball are just a few of the sports in which the knee is subject to repeated minor injuries.
This accelerated destruction of cartilage may hinder athletic performance or show up later in life as serious joint pain.
The good news is that you can bathe your joints with the nutrients your body needs to rebuild cartilage. NuFlex contains 1,500mg of glucosamine and three other ingredients to support your joints.

Attitude Is Everything!!!
ATTITUDE
There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror, and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.
"Well," she said, "I think I'll braid my hair today."? So she did and she had a wonderful day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and saw that she had only two hairs on her head.
"H-M-M, " she said, "I think I'll part my hair down the middle today."? So she did and she had a grand day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head.
"Well," she said, "Today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail." So she did and she had a fun, fun day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn't a single hair on her head.
"YEAH!" she exclaimed, "I don't have to fix my hair today!"
Attitude is everything.
Have a Good Day!
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle."

Did You Know Today is Special????
Most people don't know that back in 1912. Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York This would have been the largest single shipment delivered to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York. The ship hit an iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever lost.The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery; were disconsolate at the loss. Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning,which they still observe to this day.
The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as "Sinko de Mayo

If you are looking for B-12 and hate shots, go to http://www.shopnutronix.com/abc37801
B12s are nature's "feel-good" nutrients, promoting energy, stamina, mental clarity and improved mood. Sublingual B-12, B-6 & Folic Acid tablets are designed to dissolve under the tongue to speed B Vitamins directly to the bloodstream where they go to work - without the need for expensive, often painful, B-12 injections.
Unlike caffeine and other artificial stimulants, B vitamins don't give you that artificial jolt of energy, followed by an inevitable letdown. Your body uses B vitamins the way nature intended - to give you sustained stamina and mental clarity throughout the day, every day.
Vegetarians or individuals consuming a primarily plant-based diet may be at higher risk of Vitamin B12 deficiency since its best sources are animal products. In short, all the critical roles that Vitamin B12 plays in your body, combined with its difficult absorption and availability primarily from animal products compels a careful review of your diet to determine whether you are getting adequate levels.

Bird FLU/ We have the Perfect Product
This article is the governments ideas, mine on the other hand are very simple,
go to http://www.shopnutronix.com/ABC37801 and read about the Silver Solution!!!
DO IT NOW---Small price and Great Rewards, Piece Of Mind, we have it!!
WASHINGTON - The government forecasts massive disruptions if bird flu or some other super-strain of influenza arises, with as much as 40 percent of the national work force off the job, but it doesn't foresee closing U.S. borders to fight the spread, according to a draft of the national response plan obtained Monday by The Associated Press.
An outbreak could lead the government to limit international flights, quarantine exposed travelers and otherwise restrict movement in and around the country.
But a complete shutdown of the border would not be likely, nor would it do more than slow the pandemic's spread by a few weeks, according to the plan that is being finalized by Bush administration officials for release Wednesday at the White House.
"While we will consider all options to limit the spread of a pandemic virus, we recognize complete border closure would be difficult to enforce, present foreign affairs complications and have significant negative social and economic consequences," the 228-page draft report says.
Pandemics can strike when the easy-to-mutate influenza virus shifts to a strain that people have never experienced, something that has happened three times in the past century. The government is preparing for a worst-case scenario of up to 2 million deaths in the United States.
It's impossible to predict when the next pandemic will strike, or how great its toll might be. But concern is rising that the Asian bird flu, called the H5N1 strain, might lead to one if it eventually starts spreading easily from person to person.
So far, H5N1 has struck more than 200 people since 2003, killing about half of them. Virtually all the victims caught it from close contact with infected poultry or droppings.
The plan says preparedness for a pandemic could take years, and so significant steps must be taken immediately across all levels of government and the private sector to protect national security, the economy and the basic functioning of society.
The report aims to energize the private sector, noting that 85 percent of the systems that are vital to society, such as food production, medicine and financial services, are privately run.

Questions and answers about avian influenza
"While a pandemic will not damage power lines, banks or computer networks, it has the potential ultimately to threaten all critical infrastructure by its impact on an organization's human resources by removing essential personnel from the workplace for weeks or months," the report says.
Telecommuting urged
Not only would sick workers stay home, but so would anyone who caring for ill family members, under quarantine because of possible exposure to the flu or taking care of children when schools shut down. The same could go for anyone who simply feels safer at home.
Included in the report's advice for employers: Have workers remain at least three feet apart or otherwise limit face-to-face contact to limit the flu's spread, including by working from home or substituting teleconferences for office meetings.
The report envisions possible breakdowns in public order and says governors might deploy National Guard troops or request federal troops to maintain order.
Last fall, President Bush announced a $7.1 billion strategy to fight the next flu pandemic, focusing largely on public health preparations — including plans to stockpile enough bird flu vaccine for 20 million people and anti-flu drugs for 81 million. So far, the stockpile contains enough vaccine for 4 million people and medication for 5 million.
This new report is Step 2, outlining how every branch of government would have to work together with federal health officials to try to contain a pandemic and minimize its damage to the economy and society. By early next month, government agencies are to release the specific steps they plan.
The report attempts to settle any turf battle within the administration, saying the Department of Health and Human Services would lead the government's interagency response effort and the Department of Homeland Security would have a secondary role to assist with the health response and non-medical support.
If a pandemic begins abroad, federal health officials are guaranteed to take certain initial steps, such as screening travelers arriving from affected areas and putting the possibly infected into quarantine. Ship and plane captains already are required to report certain on-board illnesses upon arrival, but crews would be trained to take such steps as putting a surgical mask on a coughing traveler.
Delaying the inevitable
With no border restrictions, pandemic influenza would arrive in the United States within two months of an outbreak abroad, the document estimates. But models of influenza's spread suggest that sealing the U.S. border would not only be impractical — 1.1 million people cross the nation's 317 official ports of entry daily — but it would only delay the inevitable by a few weeks, it says.
Domestically, Americans take an average of 1.1 billion trips a day — four for every person.
INTERACTIVE
The new document promises that the Bush administration will create a "toolkit" of options to help mayors, governors and transportation officials decide what, if any, restrictions on that travel would be appropriate at different stages of a pandemic. It calls mandatory quarantine a last resort, and urges planners to consider, for example, that closing a community would sever it from the delivery of groceries and other essential goods.
The military could be activated to enforce travel restrictions and deliver vaccines and medicines, the report says.
Colleges should consider whether dormitories could be used to house or quarantine the sick, and establish mandatory sick-leave policies for anyone exposed to the flu.
Repeatedly, the report stresses that government must provide accurate and timely information to citizens, who could either help or hinder flu's spread through their own actions.
"The collective response of 300 million Americans will significantly influence the shape of the pandemic and its medical, social and economic outcomes," the report says. "Institutions in danger of becoming overwhelmed will rely on the voluntarism and sense of civic and humanitarian duty of ordinary Americans."
