| Spirulina - The Ultimate Natural Nutritional Supplement |

A nutrient rich blue green algae that grows naturally in mineral-rich alkaline lakes, Spirulina is the ultimate natural.......
When it comes to natural nutritional supplements there is little doubt that Spirulina is head and shoulders above the rest. A nutrient rich blue green algae that grows naturally in mineral-rich alkaline lakes, Spirulina is the ultimate natural nutritional supplement and a giant leap beyond ordinary supplements. Spirulina contains the most complete source of nutrients found in any single food on the planet.
When you think of protein you usually think of meat, or maybe fish. Spirulina contains more high biological value protein, over 65%, than any other natural food and that includes both meat and fish. Spirulina also contains more protein than:
*Dried Milk (35%)
*Peanuts (25%)
*Eggs (12%)
*Grains (8-14%)
*Whole Milk (3%)
Yet, that’s not its most impressive feature; Spirulina contains a greater concentration of vitamins, nutrients and other unusual nutrients than any other natural food on the planet. Just 3 to 10 grams per day can deliver impressive amounts of beta carotene, vitamin B-12 and B complex, iron, essential trace minerals, and gamma-linolenic acid. And that’s not all; spirulina is rich in phytonutrients and functional nutrients that demonstrate a positive effect on health.
Spirulina is a major source of iron, calcium and mineral content. These help to maintain healthy blood, bones, nerves and muscles. Spirulina is nature’s richest wholefood source of Biochelated Organic Iron, which is completely non-toxic and weighs in with 58 times more iron than raw spinach and 28 times more iron than raw beef liver.
Spirulina is unquestionably one of the planet’s finest natural complexes for supporting body ecology and the benefits are many, it contains the following natural substances essential for optimum health:
*All eight essential amino acids - and ten non-essential amino acids – in terms of nutritional profile, spirulina is the closest thing to mother’s milk.
*Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) - an essential fatty acid thought to help combat heart disease, arthritis and the symptoms of ageing. Spirulina contains more GLA than Evening Primrose Oil.
*Natural Carotenes & Antioxidants - ridding the body of harmful ‘free radicals’, thus improving skin and hair and general well-being. Spirulina contains every natural antioxidant known; the antioxidant vitamins B-1 and B-6; the minerals zinc, manganese and copper, the amino acid methionine; and the super-antioxidants beta-carotene (25 times richer than raw carrots), vitamin E and trace element selenium.
*Wide spectrum of vitamins - including natural vitamin E for promoting normal red cell formation and vitamins B-12, B-2 and B-6 to aid absorption, release energy from food, and enhance brain function.
*Low fat content - proper balanced nutrition reduces the body’s craving for food. Coupled with virtually no fat, spirulina can be a powerful weapon for combating weight loss.

| Student Health Plans Thanksgiving Tradition - Nov 26, 2004 18:26 IST |
|
MedSave.com is gearing up for a lesser-known Thanksgiving tradition. Thousands of college students change their health insurance plans during their trip home to see parents this week. From the Wednesday before Thanksgiving through the following weekend, online and telephone requests from students and their parents have come in at a record pace. This trend has grown each year since the enrollment firm’s launch in 1997. Despite efforts to take more calls and process more applications, the firm still expects a backlog of business on Thanksgiving weekend. Other enrollment firms report similar trends. MedSave.com focuses on low cost health insurance, so it serves a higher percentage of students than some other enrollment firms. In addition, students are more likely than adults to enroll for a health plan online rather than traditional paper methods.

In 2002 the European Union passed the directive on dietary supplements. This directive, which is part of a larger form of legislation called codex alimentarius, is a dangerous directive which takes away your rights as An American citizen to control your own health.

| Low-Fat vs. Low-Carb Study Results Mis-Reported: Study Revelaed the Real Enemy is Junk Food - Nov 26, 2004 13:51 IST |
|
Recent headlines suggesting low-carb dieters were more likely to re-gain weight than low-fat dieters resulted from misinterpretation of a study presented earlier this month at a major conference on obesity. In fact, the study showed no difference between the two groups of dieters. The real “enemy” revealed by the study was junk food consumed after subjects had lost weight.
According to Catherine LaCroix, editor in chief of LowCarb Living magazine, the study presented earlier this month at the North American Association for the Study of Obesity was widely misreported. “A review of the data showed there was absolutely no difference in weight re-gain between the ‘low-carb’ and ‘low-fat’ groups,” said LaCroix. “So we talked to Suzanne Phelan, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Human Behavior at Brown University, who presented the study. She admits that those headlines proclaiming ‘low fat beats low carb’ were ‘somewhat misleading.’”
