The Key to Strong Muscles

Thu, 31 Jan 2008 00:00:00 -0600

The key to a strong body is a great workout program. But if you're like most people, you don't want to spend 5 days a week in the gym. I didn't either, so I went searching for a better work out program.

I found it with Adam Zickerman. Most weight training programs require 6 hours a week of in-the-gym training. Adam's program required just 1 hour.

Some people find this hard to believe.

But after using the program for myself and seeing muscle growth after just 2 weeks, I knew I'd found something very unique.

I'd always been a skinny guy and putting on muscle was difficult with the typical 3 sets of 10 workout routine. I didn't understand what it took to build muscles until I read through Adam's scientific explanation of muscle building.

Adam teaches that each muscle actually has 4 sub-sets of muscle in it. When I was doing my 3 sets of 10 workout routine, I was only utilizing 2 of these sub-sets. But, if I could use all 4 sets of muscle, I could obviously build muscle much faster.

The key to using all 4 sub-sets of the muscle is to lift very slowly. It has something to do with fast twitch and slow twitch muscles (Adam explains it much better). The point is, Adam took a scientific approach to weight training.

By lifting slowly, taking 10 seconds to raise the weight, and 10 seconds to lower the weight, you utilize all of your muscle. By continuing with this slow-lifting technique until you have literally burnt out the muscle (aka - you can't move it), you have done more in the 2 minutes that took than 3 sets of 10 for 7 weeks could build.

Cause & Natural Treatment of Acid Reflux

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 00:00:00 -0600

Acid Reflux. It's one of the buzz words today. We see many ads for drugs that supposedly 'cure' this 'excess' acid. In reality, these drugs only mask the symptoms.

Here is the real cause of Acid Reflux: The body is not producing the right amount of acid for the foods that are in your stomach. For example, proteins (like steak, chicken, etc) need to be digested at a pH of ~1.0. [pH ranges from 1.0 to 14.0, where 1 is extremely acid and 14 is extremely alkaline. 7.0 is neutral.] Proteins digest best at a pH of 1.0; however, when the stomach is at a pH of 4.0, there isn't enough acid to allow the enzymes that digest protein to work effectively. The is improper digestion. The foods can start to ferment, causing acidic bubbles that push up through the stomach and into the throat bringing the acidic stomach juices with them.

The best way to correct acid reflux isn't to neutralize the acid. The best way to treat acid reflux is to get the stomach to be producing the right amount of acid at the right time. Proper enzymes and other nutrients can give the stomach the materials it requires to function properly.

An acid reflux remedy will give the stomach the proper ingredients to produce the correct amount of acid. The stomach requires the proper digestive enzymes, alkalinity, and minerals to carry out digestion. Dr Morter's Acid Reflux pack is one natural acid reflux solution (http://mortersupplements.com/acidrefluxpack.html). Other ones can be found on the internet.

Take the natural approach to acid reflux. Get the cause of indigestion and realize that will the proper tools, your stomach works perfectly.

Relief! – A Natural Allergies Remedy

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 00:00:00 -0600

Allergies are caused by incomplete digestion of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates in the body. When spring comes along and all this extra pollen is floating in the air, bodies that are already toxic to begin with, get overloaded with this excess protein they have to deal with. You see, pollen is actually just a protein, and when you breathe it into your system, your body has to break it down. If your body is already having trouble breaking the normal foods you are eating, this addition job of breaking down pollen will cause the body to overload.

Thus, what the body does is it tries to cleanse the pollen from the body by creating excess mucus, which traps the pollen in the nose and throat before it gets into the lungs &/or stomach. Then, when you blow your nose, this trapped pollen is excreted from your body.

So, you never want to cover up your body's production of mucus because your body is doing exactly what it needs to do to survive.

So, if you want to make the excess mucus not necessary, you need to address your body's inability to digest this excess pollen.

First, start taking digestive enzymes. These will aid your body's ability to break down the allergy-causing substances. Then, cleanse your body of excess toxins. Take a 3 week colon cleanse to clean out your body. A clean body can better handle an influx of new toxins. And finally, alkalize your body. A healthy body is best equipped to remove foreign entities. Barley green is a top choice for alkalizing the body.

For those looking for all these supplements in one place, try this natural allergy remedy, ( http://mortersupplements.com/allergiespack.html), a Morter HealthSystem product. Or visit your local health food store to pick up the ingredients listed above. Your health is your choice. Which road will you choose?

Adrenal Fatigue

Fri, 09 Nov 2007 00:00:00 -0600

Adrenal Fatigue is caused by long term stress which depletes the nutrients in the energy systems of the body.

These energy systems are known as the adrenal glands. To regain your energy, replenish the nutrients that the adrenal glands need to function properly.

With long term use, the adrenal glands get fatigued. In laymans terms, this means they have run out of fuel. For example, if a human is fatigued, they simply need some rest and good meal to give them a boost again. With the fatigued adrenal glands, they need rest and nutrients to get them up and going again.

Step 1: Relax! Ooops....Let me say that quieter....r...e...l......a.....x :) shhhhhhh.

Pinpoint the exact cause of your long term stress. Often times, it seems like it's everything, but for this exercise, find just one event that's putting your nerves on constant alert. Got it? Now, take out a sheet of paper.....*don't worry - I'll wait*......and write out:

___(enter stressor here) _________ has not been giving me peace and relaxation.

To achieve more peace and relaxation, I will do the following things in the next 3 days to bring this event to a more peaceful and relaxing point in my life.

First Day Action Step: _______________
Second Day Action Step: _______________
Third Day Action Step: _______________

Each step will take less than 5 minutes to complete (make them very minor, yet signifcant, and do them before 10:00 in the morning.

After 3 days, your life will feel much more in control and you'll notice your shoulders drop as you breathe a sigh of relief.

Step 2: Re-nutrilize your adrenal glands. (Ok, so that's not a word!) Your fatigued adrenal glands need food to repair themselves. With the proper adrenal fatigue supplements, you can give them that food. Find a product that contains supplements geared specifically for the adrenal glands. Dr. Morter's supplement line carries two products called Alkadrenergy and Adrenergy that are designed specifically for adrenal fatigue ( http://mortersupplements.com/supplements/adrenal-gland.html ). Use both of these products or any other ones that are geared specifically for adrenal gland fatigue.

After 2 months of a more controlled, relaxed life and a daily dose of adrenal fatigue supplements, you will start feeling like a whole new person. You'll be excited to get up in the morning, you'll feel more energy throughout your day, and you'll notice your friends starting to say you look different - happier, healthier.

Here's to getting your life on track, to having the energy you want to do the things you enjoy. Get started today with your 3 steps and a purchase of nutrients for your fatigued adrenal glands!
