Ways to Implement Green Living

Green living is not something you just do, but green living is a state of mind. You must in your mind really want to help our environment my thinking everyday what you can do help save our natural recourses. There are many ways to implement green living, that is why I have listed here ways you can get started.
Start using products that are safe for the environment. Examples of these products can be; cleaning products, recycled papers, and even clothing made from environmentally safe processes. Usually the products are packaged in drab looking containers, the reason being they do not use fancy inks and paper from trees.
You can also start helping by recycling plastics, glass, and paper products. Even if you just recycle one or two items then you are helping the environment. Many cities now require recycling of products and require you to separate them.
The next time you replace a light bulb try replacing it with a LED bulb, which are safer than CFLs which contain mercury. With an LED bulb you can save up to 80% over a standard incandescent light bulb.
When was the last time you had your car tuned up? Simply by tuning up your car you are helping eliminate gas emissions and using less fuel. Buying a hybrid car when it comes time to trade in your old car is a great choice.
Another way to save energy is by adjusting your thermostat either lower in the winter or higher in the summer. Not only do you save energy you also save money on your utility cost.
Try planting a garden in the spring and reap the rewards. If you never planted a garden you might find it a very fun thing to do, growing your very own food will save you money at the grocery store. Even if you don’t plant your own garden you can buy fresh organic food that is free of pesticides and other chemicals.
Water conservation is another way of implementing green living. We take for granted the natural water resources we have around us. Try using less water during showers, and when washing clothes. Also if you water your lawn during the hot summer months why not collect water using a 55 gallon drum available from your local home supply store. You can use this water for your lawn and garden. Saving on one our most valuable resources helps everyone. Just by using one or two of my tips you can help our environment and do your part in green living.

Weight Gain vs. Menopause

Is Weight Loss Impossible During Menopause?
Interviewer: Gail Edgell

Gail Edgell: All of a sudden, women hit 40 or 45, and things start to change. They gain a lot of weight around the waist. What is really happening?

Dr. Chilkov:    As we age, our metabolism slows down, and there are many changes in our hormonal balance. We have to look at changes in estrogen, insulin and thyroid function as well as changes in lifestyle. Women can get more sedentary as they age because of the demands of life.

All of these factors will cause an increase in body fat. It’s lovely to be thin for cosmetic reasons and vanity. But really, we want to have low body fat and more muscle mass. High body fat increases our risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, arthritis and depression. So many health issues are made worse by having a higher percentage of body fat. That should be our motivation for being leaner and thinner.

Gail Edgell: What can women do, starting in their 40s, to really combat this issue? Does it change as they are going into their 50s and 60s?

Dr. Chilkov: The bottom line is having a lifelong normal weight. Maintaining a normal fat-to-lean-body-mass ratio is a lifestyle. Then we deal specifically with metabolic issues with herbs and nutrients.

You have to include the lifestyle factor of regular exercise. If you want to maintain your weight, you want to exercise an hour three times a week. If you want to lose weight, you have to do that every day. You want to have a healthy diet and proper stress management — stress hormones cause your body to store fat. And you want to have adequate rest, so you aren’t swimming upstream against your own physiological factors.

There are a number of herbs and nutrients that we can use to help our body burn more fat, even while we are sitting. Let me introduce some of those.

The first one that I want to discuss is CLA; that is an abbreviation for conjugated linoleic acid. This is a type of fatty acid that promotes fat loss and muscle growth. It occurs in some foods — for example, it is very high in cottage cheese. I prescribe 1,000 milligrams, twice a day, in a capsule as part of a weight-loss program. It increases the burning of fat. That is how it helps us lose weight more efficiently. We are going to promote fat loss, but we also are going to promote muscle growth. Why is that important? Muscle has a higher metabolic rate, so it keeps us lean. If you have more muscle mass, you can eat more calories and still stay thin. You want to be using things that not only burn fat but also build muscle. That is a real key to staying lean.

CLA is used in treating other health concerns. It’s used in cancer care, in treating cardiovascular disease and diabetes. It’s not just used as a weight-loss supplement.

A lot of people have heard a lot about Green Tea and weight loss. It is a useful herb for weight loss because it, too, will improve fat metabolism. Green Tea also reduces appetite. It has a little bit of caffeine and the main medicinal component, ECGC. The decaffeinated form is not as effective for weight loss as the natural caffeinated form. It can be taken in capsules, or it can be taken as a beverage tea. When you take Green Tea in capsules, you want a fat-soluble capsule; it is much more effective. Green Tea really, really increases thermogenics, or energy expenditure (calorie burn), that can boost your metabolism by 4 percent a day.

Green Tea also helps keep blood sugar stable. That is why it reduces appetite. Keeping blood sugar stable is a big component of weight loss. If your blood sugar drops, your body will produce the stress hormone cortisol. That is a fat-storage hormone. Keeping your blood sugar stable during the day by eating small, frequent meals and not waiting too long to eat really makes weight loss much more efficient.

Green Tea is a fabulous antioxidant. It protects your cells from damage. Green Tea is also wonderful in cancer treatment and cancer prevention. There are many benefits to using Green Tea besides weight loss.

Gail Edgell: I know you spoke about Green Tea in a hot-tea formula, or a tea-bag formula. I know that there are hundreds out there on the market. What kind of Green Tea should people be purchasing?

Dr. Chilkov:    When you buy teas, herbal medicines or nutritional supplements, you want to buy the absolute highest quality. Buying a cheap brand is not the best way to get a real therapeutic outcome.

Gail Edgell: Are there other supplements that women can possibly take?

Dr. Chilkov: There are two more that I wanted to discuss. One is carnitine. Carnitine is the main amino acid in our muscle. It is also very important for our brain. But carnitine is required for fat metabolism. Sometimes vegetarians have trouble with weight loss because they are carnitine-deficient. They have very little carnitine in their diet because carnitine primarily comes from flesh foods.

Carnitine is another supplement that increases fat-burning and builds muscle. There are certain groups of people who really want to be careful about losing too much muscle — for example, the elderly, people who have chronic illnesses, and people who have cancers. When we want to build muscle, we put carnitine in the body. We can also use it when we want to lose fat. Carnitine enters a pathway in the cell that is part of the energy factory inside the cell. If you push that forward, you are going to burn more fat. Carnitine is required for that pathway in our cells. Without carnitine, we cannot burn fat for energy. Therefore, carnitine will benefit people who are suffering from fatigue as well as obesity. Carnitine is also helpful in treating some forms of depression.

About 800 to 1,000 milligrams three times a day is the dose I recommend. Carnitine can be taken in a powder form or a capsule form. Some supplement companies even make it in a liquid form, which I have found is useful in children.

Gail Edgell: Is there a possibility that individuals can overdose on these? I know that you have been making some recommendations — for example, 800 to 1,000 milligrams of carnitine three times a day. If people were to take more than that, what would happen? Are they urinating it out?

Dr. Chilkov:    There’s really not a lot of benefit from taking double or triple the doses. You want to stay in a therapeutic dose range, where you are going to alter your metabolism in a healthy way. I want to emphasize that what we want is healthy weight loss. And at the end of the weight loss, we want a healthy woman. If you lose weight in a healthy fashion, you will also keep it off. That will relieve you of yo-yo dieting.

Gail Edgell: You said that you had one last supplement to recommend?

Dr. Chilkov: I have one more that is not well known. It’s Coleus forskohlii, which is a plant. The main active constituent in that is called forskolin. Again, it increases your metabolism and thermogenesis — fat-burning, calorie burning and energy expenditure. The other thing about Coleus is that it will stimulate your thyroid. Of course, that will increase metabolism and weight loss as well.

Coleus also has another benefit in that it regulates insulin and blood sugar. I want to say a little bit about that because regulating insulin and blood sugar is another key to weight loss. CLA, which I mentioned at the beginning of this talk, also does that. You asked me why we gain weight around the middle as we age. The reason that happens is because a syndrome called insulin resistance develops. Insulin, the hormone that unlocks the door for sugar to go inside the cells, starts to become less efficient. We start to store our calories as fat rather than burn them as energy. When you use something like CLA or Coleus, you’re counteracting that pattern. That pattern develops more in people who abuse sugar and eat too many sweets. By limiting carbohydrates and sweets, you stop yourself from developing this fat storage around your abdomen due to insulin resistance. If you have a history of diabetes in your family, you are going to be much more prone to something like this.

Coleus is also a slight mood elevator. That, of course, will affect food cravings, our motivation to exercise and eat right. By dealing with things that affect our mood, levels of stress, anxiety and depression, we will be able to engage in healthy choices that cause us to be lean and to lose weight. I think it’s important to include things in your plan to address that aspect.

Gail Edgell: Did you say that Coleus forskohlii comes in a supplement form or liquid?

Dr. Chilkov: Typically, you will see it in capsule form. You will see weight-loss products that contain all of these ingredients. There are a number of good products out on the market, or variations of these. These four things that I have talked about can be used individually or together.

To summarize, what you want to do in a weight-loss program is make sure you are eating a diet that is appropriate for you. You do not want to be on an extreme low-calorie diet. You want a good balance between your proteins, carbohydrates and healthy fat. (Older women do better by limiting their carbohydrates. They will lose more weight by doing this because of the insulin relationship.) You want to have regular exercise. You want to make sure that you get adequate rest, keep your blood sugar stable throughout the day, and manage your stress well. If you do all of those things, you will become lean.

Gail Edgell: Sounds easier than it really is, right?

Dr. Chilkov:    If you set up some structure for yourself and stick with it, this is not extreme. This is very doable.

Women Cure Your Breast Cancer

Breast Cancer In Women According to the American Cancer Society and the American Medical Association breast cancer is the most common disease found in women and is the second most major cause of death for them. Normally, the disease is not invasive until they reach their twenties. Every single year millions of women are diagnosed with breast cancer. As women get older, cancer screening visits increase and is the most common reason for office visits to their doctors. The biggest procedure women follow up when they visit their doctors is a mammogram. A mammogram is used to check the breast to determine if any cancer is present. The first question women usually have is what breast cancer is. Breast cancer is described as abnormal cells that have mutated and they are no longer normal. The next question asked is why so many women get breast cancer. There are many causes of this dreaded disease. In some women, it appears to form if their menstrual cycle begins too soon. The average age for women to start their menstrual cycle is around twelve year of age. However, for those that begin earlier, evidence has indicated that for many, this group runs the risk of getting breast cancer sometime in their life even before they reach thirty. If a woman has menopause after fifty, this can be the cause of a woman’s system to make hormones in her body change too late. Too much saturated fat in the diet can cause breast cancer. A diet including monounsaturated fats like canola oil and olive oil does not appear to induce or increase the chance of breast cancer. Many types of breast cancers are genetic in nature. If the family has a history of breast cancer, it is likely to be passed on to later generations. Women that have a history of a female family member who had breast cancer also have and increased probability of acquiring it. Women who take estrogen replacement therapy can also be cursed with this disease. This is mostly true if the therapy has been extended up to ten years. It is obvious that breast cancer is a grievous disease that should never be ignored. Women should schedule regular check-ups with their doctor especially when they have reached their twenties.

What Breast Cancer Is It is to your advantage to know just what breast cancer is so you will know how to fight it. Knowing what breast cancer is will make coping with it, and perhaps curing it, much easier. Breast cancer is a group of cells in the breast that have become abnormal for various reasons. Researchers suspect that some forms of bacteria get into normal cells and cause mutations. When this happens, the mutated cells then attack other normal cells and cause them to become mutated. Some cells wind up getting destroyed in the process. When many cells are altered in this way, cancer develops. Often a small amount of these mutated cells wind up being cancerous. This is why cancer often starts in a small section of the breast then outwardly spreads. If the cancer is not controlled or stopped, it can spread even beyond the breast and end up in other parts of the body. At that time it becomes imperative to quickly find a cure. Scientists know what breast cancer is. Researchers know that since cancer is a group of abnormal cells, they apply their research toward finding chemicals that can destroy the mutated cells, or alter them so they can repair themselves and become normal again. By finding what causes mutated cells to manifest may provide clues to the reason for their development in the body and find ways to actually reverse the process. This can help to avoid it in the future, especially for those who have already had it. Those who have never had it can take the necessary steps to keep it from ever happening. The Four Stages of Breast Cancer In order to cope with breast cancer, you need to examine the different stages so you can be better deal with it from the beginning. Breast cancer often occurs in stages. Many types of cancers spread at a slow rate while others spread more rapidly. There are cancers that grow predictable and there are types that spread randomly. The types of cancers that spread randomly are created by estrogen in the body. The stage that it is in will depend mainly on the size of the tumor and if the cancer has spread or not. Stage 0: Stage 0 is described as noninvasive carcinoma or carcinoma in situ. During this stage of development the cells are abnormal in the lining of the lobule (a small section of a lobe) and have not become cancerous yet. Stage 1: In stage 1, the tumor has become cancerous and has grown to an inch in diameter, but has not spread beyond the breast. Stage 2: With stage 2 one of three things has happened: (1) The cancerous tumor has grown to less than one inch in diameter and has spread to the lymph nodes under the arm (2) The cancerous tumor has grown to be about one and two inches, but has not yet reached the lymph nodes, but is headed in that direction (3) The cancerous tumor is larger than 2 inches in diameter and has not moved. Stage 3: The cancerous tumor has grown to more than two inches across, and has reached and penetrated the lymph nodes under the arm. In some cases this type of cancer has been known to spread to the lymph nodes adjacent to the breastbone, or other tissue near the breast. Stage 4: This is referred to as metastatic cancer. The cancer has spread beyond the breast, lymph nodes, and to other parts of the body. Despite all misconceptions, breast cancer is dangerous but it can be cured if discovered in time. Powerful Antioxidants In case you didn’t know, foreign bodies, (molecules known as free radicals), attack your body every single day. They are known as free radicals because they are roaming freely about. However, the first atom they find they will become attached to it. Once they become attached to the atom, the cell destroys what is there, or replaces the cell. When the replacement has been completed, the once healthy cell now becomes a bad cell. Then the bad cell converts healthy cell into bad ones. Given time, these groups of cells become mutated and cancerous. To reverse this process, you need a sufficient supply of antioxidants such as fruits, vegetables, and other important foods. The three most powerful antioxidants are beta-carotene, vitamin C, and vitamin E. Beta-carotene is what gives many fruits their appearance. It also stimulates the release of natural killer cells, which hunt down and destroy cancer cells before they can do any damage. It only takes about 15 to 30 milligrams a day to stop these free radicals and destroy them. You can find beta-carotene in cantaloupes, sweet potatoes, spinach, and bok choy (a Chinese cabbage with long white stalks and narrow green leaves. Latin name Brassica chinensis). Vitamin C is the next most powerful antioxidant. According to scientific studies at the University of California, those who took at least 66 milligrams of vitamin C every day, found their bodies to be free from any foreign antibodies. Vitamin E is the most versatile antioxidant. Vitamin E not only blocks free radicals, and also stops cancer by stimulating the immune system. When the immune system is engaged, it goes about its job of destroying bad cells in the body. The best way to acquire vitamin E is by eating wheat germ. Other foods that contain vitamin E are whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. Breast Cancer Treatment Options There are many breast cancer treatment options available. According to many doctors and nutritionists, the best method is aimed at the food you eat. Research studies show foods that have healing properties are the best to consume, in order to get rid of breast cancer. What would these foods be? Nutritionist say that by eating lots of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes , you greatly reduce developing breast cancer. If you already have breast cancer, eating these kinds of foods gives you an excellent chance of having the cancer going away. How do these foods cause such healing? The same nutritionists speak about certain compounds in foods that actually help fight and prevent cancer at the cellular level. Phytonutrients, (substances that are found in plant food) have the ability to stop cancer. One good example of this type of plant food is broccoli. Broccoli contains phytonutrients called isothiocyanates. In lab tests, this chemical actually destroys cancer tissue. You will find phytonutrients in many other types of foods such as soybeans, tofu, tempeh, and soy milk. As for soy milk, this is really good for you if you are lactose intolerant, because it contains a soy product called genistein that stops the growth of tumors in tissue. For centuries it has been known that a perfect healer for many illnesses is garlic. It has a lot of phytonutrients and allyl sulfides. Allyl sulfides have been known to destroy cancer-causing substances in the body. For more free information, visit the link below http://bestchoiceebooks.com/cancer/optin.html

Wireless Broadband Internet

Wireless broadband internet is a huge advance in technology, providing a much faster connection to the internet, compared with outmoded methods, such as dial-up, on top of the benefit of being more convenient than a wired broadband internet connection. The reason is due to the fact that using wireless broadband internet enables a person to use a standard desktop computer in addition to other desktops, laptops, or game consoles throughout the house, without the drawbacks associated with a wired broadband connection.The drawbacks of a wired broadband connection include having to keep a main computer connected to the router, and depending on a particular family’s needs, utilizing a lot of unsightly network cables that may have to be tacked to walls or over doorways. Not many people want to have 50 foot network cables running from their main desktop to every room of the house just to accommodate the broadband needs of the family. This is where using wireless broadband internet comes in.The leading advantage of utilizing wireless broadband internet, for a technologically-inclined family, is the ability to use a game console such as the Wii, PS3, or Xbox 360, without interrupting other users in the home. While households without such capabilities, having to take turns (depending on how many connections their particular router hub is equipped with), and disconnecting and reconnecting cables so someone can switch to internet, or back to a game console, just becomes tiresome. Wireless users, however, are not hampered down with such restrictions on their usage. However, all of that is easily avoided when using wireless broadband internet and connecting all of the household’s technology to one wireless router. This leaves the home free from multiple network cables running all over the place, and allows everyone in the home to use multiple laptops, game consoles, or the home desktop, all at the same time.Networking an entire household to a wireless broadband internet connection is virtually hassle-free once all household technology is connected to the router. A decent wireless router can cost, on average, around $60.00, and can be found at retailers such as Best Buy, TigerDirect.com, or newegg.com, but can also be rented from a cable service provider, such as Verizon, Charter, or DirecTV, for a monthly fee of around $5.99 a month.Saving time by not having to disconnect and reconnect a network cable every time someone wants to use the laptop, the computer or the Wii is definitely worth the price.

Well I hope that with a few of my tips, you will be able to get some airline travel discounts.

Here are some tips to find the lowest fare air ticket:

  • Buy tickets 3-5 months before your departure date

Some airlines offer discounts for early buyers. It’s also best to buy your tickets at least 20 days in advance to ensure the best seating possible, most discounted tickets sell out fast. You should also know that Airline Tickets are subject to price increase, especially during Christmas season, so buying early avoids further ticket increase.

  • Never fly on weekends
  • If you’re planning a trip, plan to leave on weekdays, preferable Monday to Wednesday. Weekends are high traffic times, for travelers and would probably cost you an additional $25-$40 increase.

  • Don’t travel During Peak season
  • Airlines tend to increase ticket prices during Peak travel season due to the increase in demand. Traveling during low season is also advantageous if you want to avoid airport and tourist spot crowds. If you really have to travel during peak season, consider leaving home early and going home late to avoid the rush.

  • How long to Stay
  • Yes your travel stay also affects airline ticket prices. Airlines give discounts if you stay at least a week at your destination and return within 90 days.

  • Consider a Connecting Flight
  • Contrary to popular belief, direct flights aren’t always the cheapest. Some people have saved up to $1000 dollars on booking connecting instead of Direct flights. If you don’t have a lot of luggage, and aren’t very particular with time, it is best, and a lot cheaper to book a connecting flight instead of direct.

  • Use the senior citizen discount
  • Some Airlines offer the same senior Citizen discount for the companions of the Senior Citizen. Ask if it’s available.

  • The Early Bird gets the Airline Ticket
  • Call Airlines at 12:01 am on Wednesday mornings. This is when airlines release all the new fares and seat plans. You can be first and choose the best and cheapest tickets at this time.

  • Shop on the Internet

  • When you do shop on the internet
  • Check first with travel agents regarding prices, Internet prices aren’t always the cheapest, it’s best to ask a good old travel agent. It won’t hurt to look at news papers too, as some airlines publish discounts on print. If you’re planning to buy more than 6 months in advance, it’s probably best to ask a travel guide as internet sites don’t usually have schedules for longer than six months.

    Airline travel discounts are everywhere; you just need to know how to find them! I hope that with these tips, that’s exactly what you are going to be able to do. Now go out there and get that lowest fare air ticket! Happy travels.
