Whats Your Body Telling You

Image
Im still processing and digesting the wealth of information I received from participating in Kevin Giannis remarkable Rawkathon event. Listening to interviews with 14 world-renowned health experts in seven days is a lot to absorb. One of the folks who particularly resonated with me was raw food coach Karen Knowler from the UK. She spoke about what it means to truly live a healthy balanced life, how to safely transition to a raw foods diet, and put an end to emotional eating. Karens energy and enthusiasm is contagious and by the time she was through speaking, I was vibrating. This will often happen to me when I hear Truth. Ever have that experience, where deep inside you feel an inner "Yes!" after you hear or read something? Ironically, Karen shared a story on the Rawkathon about a time when her own body informed her that she had just made a very important decision. As a follow-up, Karen has written a wonderful article that further illustrates her increased perception and in...

Water In Your Body

Image
I talk a lot about hydration on this blog. I thought it would be a good idea to talk about everything water does for us in our body, besides just cooling us off through sweat. Proper hydration is important to perform best at your sport, but it does so much more! Water helps control our internal body temperature through sweating. Athletes know all about that!  It is the water in our blood that carries nutrients (glucose, oxygen, and fats) to the muscles and also removes the by-products from metabolism. The waste products are rid from our body through urine. Darker urine means that the waste is more concentrated. Being properly hydrated will reduce the stress on the kidneys and liver, whose job it is to remove waste from the body. Water also lubricates our joints and provides cushion to our organs.  Drinking enough water will also help prevent  constipation .  So as you can see, water has many roles in our body. As an athlete, you are at a greater risk for dehydra...

Sailing With Nutritionist Keri Glassman On A Mind Body Spirit Cruise My Opinion Of Her High ORAC O2 DIet

Keri Glassman Nationally recognized nutritionist and author Follow Foods For Long Life on FACEBOOK ! Learning About Nutrition on a Cruise? On Tuesday, I wrote about many of my favorite experiences on the  Mind, Body, & Spirit Cruise  that we recently took. Besides all the great activities like Zumba, yoga, ballroom dancing, stretching and massage, there were some very good lecturers, the best of whom was Keri Glassman. Since I am a nutritionist, its not a surprise that I would enjoy the lectures about nutrition the most. But I must say, it takes a lot of guts to stand up in front of a bunch of people vacationing on a cruise and discuss nutrition! (Pardon me miss Glassman, could you speed up the lecture as its interfering with the ice cream social on the Lido deck!). Much to the credit of the passengers, the seats were filled and people were truly interested in learning more about nutrition. Much to her credit, she encouraged people to listen, enjoy the cruise and prac...

Zumba On The High Seas With Diane Hedrick The Highlight Of My 10 Day Mind Body Spirit Cruise On The Crystal Symphony

Morning Zumba on the deck with Cabo San Lucas in the background Follow Foods For Long Life on FACEBOOK ! Another Healthy Vacation Last year I posted How to take a healthy cruise and have fun without the weight gain. Feeling pretty confident that I could do this again, Doug and I jumped at the chance when we got a great deal on a 10 day "Mind, Body & Spirit" cruise to the Mexican Riviera on the Crystal Symphony. But besides just focusing on the healthy food options, this time I focused on the full agenda of healthy lectures and activities.  Cruises and other types of "all inclusive" vacations can be dangerous if you slip into the mode of trying to "eat and drink your moneys worth". But try to remember that the lovely memory of that last chocolate dessert fades long before the fat it put on your thighs! There are always wonderful food choices to make, especially on cruises where they bend over backwards to please you.  Lots of wonderful ingredients for a...
