TriVita Health – More Stretching Methods

For a structured stretching activity, you can try a number of exercise methods.  But be sure to consult your healthcare provider before beginning any new exercise and make sure your instructor is a certified professional.

• Yoga can help tone your muscles as well as help increase lubrication of the joints.  Plus, it’s recommended by the Arthritis Foundation.  Many people find it very soothing, and a great stress reliever.  For those with limited mobility, there is “chair yoga,” a modified version of yoga that can provide similar benefits as regular yoga.

• Pilates, although not specifically a stretching exercise, may help increase your flexibility while strengthening your core muscles.

TriVita Health -- It’s No Stretch of the Imagination

TriVita Health -- It’s No Stretch of the Imagination
Flexibility plays a large role in your overall health

You often hear that you should stretch before and after exercise.  However, it’s becoming increasingly clear that standalone stretching is the most important type of stretching you can do.

Regular stretching lengthens your muscles and increases your range of motion.  This is called flexibility.  Plus, it can also help:

• Reduce the risk of injury

• Increase balance

• Improve coordination

• Promote circulation

• Improve posture

• Reduce stress.

A recent study showed that stretching can even help improve strength and muscle endurance.  Researchers at Louisiana State University divided 38 mostly sedentary people into two groups.  Over 10 weeks, one group didn’t do any stretching; the other group did leg stretches for 40 minutes a few times per week.  Not only did the stretching group increase their flexibility, but they also increased their strength and muscular endurance.

But don’t think the benefits of stretching are restricted to the exercise arena; flexibility can mean an easier time picking something off the floor or reaching for something on a high shelf.  Just be sure to follow this list of stretching do’s and don’ts.

Stretching do’s and don’ts

Do:

• Consult your healthcare provider before beginning a stretching program, especially if you have had hip replacement surgery

• Warm up before stretching to reduce your risk of injury

• Try to stretch for 20 minutes at least three times per week

• Stretch after exercise to help restore muscle to its resting state

• Stretch all muscle groups including those in the back, chest, shoulders, neck, legs and arms

• Hold each stretch for 10 to 30 seconds.

Don’t:

• Stretch to the point of pain; you may feel discomfort but pain is a warning sign

• Stretch before warming up

• Bounce while you stretch; this can lead to injury

• Twist your spine or overextend your neck

• Hold your breath while stretching

• Jerk into position; move slowly.

TriVita Health -- Grandparenting 101

TriVita Health -- Grandparenting 101
Tips for being a good grandparent

Memories of time spent with your grandparents last a lifetime; the cookies you made with grandma or the time you went fishing with grandpa – all by yourself!  It is these experiences that make the grandparent/grandchild relationship so special.

Here are some tips for being a good grandparent – and ways to solidify the unique bond between grandparent and grandchild.

• Be at the hospital to meet the baby when it first comes into the world.  Ask the parents in advance what role they would like you to play on delivery day.

• In the first few months, offer to help the parents in any way you can.  This could include running errands or even spending time watching the child while the parents get much-needed sleep.

• As the children grow, spend one-on-one time with each grandchild; this creates memories that will be with them always.

• Don’t play favorites; spend equal time with all grandchildren unless proximity prohibits it.

• Plan events with your grandchildren rather than merely sitting them in front of the television.  These can include baking cookies, taking nature walks, putting together a puzzle, fishing, etc.

• Be a neutral party. This becomes especially important during the teenage years when kids need someone to talk to besides their parents. (Their parents are the last people they want to talk to!)

• Don’t compete with your grandchild’s other grandparents.  There is no need to be jealous of the time and attention they spend with the grandkids.  Each grandparent should get equal time.

• Keep family history alive.  As a grandparent, you are in the unique position of knowing more about family history than anyone else.  Pass this knowledge on to your grandkids so they will feel a sense of continuity and history.

• Be an active part of your grandchildren’s lives.  This may mean getting caught up on current trends (although not necessarily embracing them).  Becoming computer literate can be especially important.

• Offer to have the grandkids over for the weekend; this will give the parents much needed time to themselves, will give you an opportunity to spend more time with the grandkids, and makes the grandchildren feel special.

• Listen to your grandchildren.  Encourage them to talk to you about their feelings or even just tell you what’s going on in their lives.

Some grandparenting DON’Ts
There are many things you can do to be a good grandparent.  And conversely, there are things you can do to be a bad grandparent.  Avoid these pitfalls:

• Don’t criticize your son- or daughter-in-law.  This can lead to problems with your own child, which may trickle down and affect your relationship with your grandchild.

• Don’t give unsolicited advice.  This may be very difficult to avoid but parents have to learn on their own.  If they ask, certainly offer your nuggets of wisdom – but only if they ask!

• Don’t discipline the grandkids.  However, don’t let the kids run wild!  Children do need boundaries set.  There should be an understanding that they will stay within these boundaries – or go home!  Of course, if you find yourself taking care of the grandkids on a daily basis, you will need to take on the role of disciplinarian.

As a grandparent, you have the opportunity to spend time with your grandkids and simply enjoy their company – without the accompanying responsibilities of parenthood.  Take joy from it.  And be the best grandparent you can be!

Mens Health

Mens Health

Basic things to do every day to help improve mens health are:

1. Breathe deeply - deep breathing releases body toxins faster than any other means.

2. Drink water - proper hydration is essential for every organ and system in a mans body.

3. Sleep peacefully - establishing a bedtime routine will help you sleep longer and more soundly. Sleep allows the body to heal and rejuvenate.

4. Eat Nutritiously - choosing healthy whole foods minimizes blood sugar swings.

5. Enjoy activity - an active lifestyle enables every system in your body to work better.

Those are five basic things that all men can do to improve their health.

Because of modern stress and fast paced lifestyle not all men do those five basic things. Health supplements have become necessary for many men. The ultimate vitamin is probably vitamin C.

There are vitamin Cs and vitamin Cs. Non Acidic vitamin C is the ultimate vitamin C to help improve mens health.

Non Acidic Vitamin C helps to:

1. Build mens body defences by supporting the immune system when it is down or stressed.

2. Detoxify the body by enabling the body to get rid of harmful toxins and pollutants.

3. Promote cardiovascular health by facilitaing the building of collagen, which helps maintain heart elasticity and blood vessel health

4. Promote healthy aging.

5. Facilitates repair of the body and reduce inflammation.

6. Minimize nerve pain in the body.

As you can see vitamin C is a powerful vitamin with the Non Acidic Vitamin C being the ultimate Vitamin C. All mens health can be improved by taking health supplements especially Vitamin C.

Defense Against Memory Loss with B-12

The link between Vitamin B-12, mental focus, energy and memory is proven. You may also know that after about age 40, our bodies become less able to absorb Vitamin B-12 from food. (Since this month marks the “Great American Smokeout” in the U.S., here’s another timely fact: Smoking steals essential nutrients – including Vitamin B-12 – from the body. There’s another great reason to quit!) So, there are those who view mental decline as an inevitable part of the aging process. However, our discoveries about the power of B vitamins are prompting us to re-think the idea that getting older means losing mental function.

Correct a B-12 deficiency, help correct memory loss One of the premier medical authorities in the field, Harvard Medical School, plainly endorses the use of B-12 to treat memory loss caused by a deficiency of this invaluable vitamin. The prestigious school supports these findings:

A lack of Vitamin B-12 can cause permanent damage to brain cells

Vitamin B-12 deficiency is among the reversible causes of memory loss (along with stress and disease)

Addressing B-12 deficiency is a treatment for memory loss

Addressing B-12 deficiency early can help bring back lost memory function

Ignoring B-12 deficiency can worsen memory loss.

Younger people at risk, too?

It’s generally older adults who tend to be more prone to a deficiency of B-12. However, there is evidence that younger people don’t get enough B-12, either. People as young as 26 turned out to be as B-12 deficient as some people over 65. According to the National Institutes of Health, one study suggests that B-12 deficiency affects a much broader age range than many have thought. The study, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, pointed to three different age groups found to have about the same deficiency in blood levels of B-12: those 65 and over, those ages 50-64 and those ages 26-49. That’s right: people as young as 26 turned out to be as B-12 deficient as some people over 65.

To Your Continued Good Health,

Weight Loss

Weigh Loss-Some obese individuals can’t lose weight no matter how strictly they follow a diet or how religiously they do an exercise routine. For these people, the only solution left is to undergo weight loss surgery. Weight loss surgery comes with many names. Some doctors refer to it as gastric banding, intestinal bypass surgery, or obesity surgery.

Weight loss surgery is recommended to people who are 80 to 100 pounds overweight. It is also the more preferred option for people who are suffering from diseases like diabetes or heart diseases but need to shed some pounds.

Weight loss surgery is characterized by the surgical reconstruction of a person’s stomach and intestines in such a way the digestive processes are interrupted. Large portions of the small intestines or the stomach maybe removed. This type of procedure was often performed on patients who suffered from stomach ulcer or cancer. Doctors observed that most of their patients lost weight after their respective operation. Now, the procedure is adapted for obese people to help them lose weight.

Weight loss surgery is a type of surgery that restricts the person’s stomach to hold food. When this happens, the whole process of food digestion is drastically slowed down. The person can eat as much as he or she used to, but the processing of food and nutrients to the body is delayed. As a result, fat accumulation is deferred.

However, there are certain cases wherein weight loss surgery causes unpredictable side effects that are sometimes harmful to the patient. This is why utmost care is necessary when operations similar to this are considered.

Weight loss surgery is known to improve almost all obesity-related problems. Its benefits can be observed continually 18 months up to 2 years after the operation. However, the patients who undergo this procedure are observed to vomit a lot. Much of it is because their stomach cannot carry the amount of food they eat. Other side effects include sweating, nausea, weakness, faintness, and diarrhoea.

Studies also show that 20% patients who had undergone weight loss surgery go through a series of follow-up operations that aims to correct the complications arising from the first operation. Some patients develop gallstones. Gallstones are clusters of cholesterol forming in the patient’s gallbladder. Nutritional deficiencies like osteoporosis, anaemia, and bone diseases are also common to patients, as not all the necessary nutrients are obtained from the food they eat.

These are the ugly truths about weight loss surgery. However, with the help of a qualified physician, the side effects associated to with this weight loss procedure can be avoided. Just make sure that you submit only to the care of an experienced obesity doctor, who can closely monitor your condition and provide you with the necessary care.
