Barcelona, Spain – Sunday 31 August 2014 Energy drinks can cause heart problems according to research presented at ESC Congress 2014 today by Professor Milou-Daniel Drici from France. Professor Drici said: “So-called ‘energy drinks’ are popular in dance clubs and during physical exercise, with people sometimes consuming a number of drinks one after the other. This situation can lead to a number of adverse conditions including angina, cardiac arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat) and even sudden death.” He added: “Around 96% of these...
Everything, living or non-living, is either acidic or alkaline. The natural processes in the human body are designed to consume alkaline foods. Our blood’s pH level is primarily determined by the food we consume. To resist the harsh effects of oxidation, viruses, bacteria, inflammation and various levels of disease our diet should consist of approximately 60% Alkaline Forming Foods so we can maintain optimal vibrant health. Most people are simply not aware or educated that our body must balance the...
The Healing Process - Using Whole Foods, Vitamin, Minerals and Enzymes Healing of these injuries doesn’t occur on a distinct step by step pathway but is actually more of an overlap of all the stages at once.

The three stages are inflammation, proliferation (scar formation) and scar...

Two years ago I started working with a person who has two daughters that compete in swimming....
While I appreciate the effort to further clarify “water safety” and related terms, I believe that water safety education needs to go much further. It is also about educating people as to the environment they are entering into when they access the water. We had 6 drownings so far in NYC, none of which had to happen. As a matter of fact, 98% of drownings do not have to happen! Education, common sense, good judgment and strong skills...

Protein Requirement of Athletes • Protein requirements of Athletes are well above those of sedentary people. • This is due in part to changes in amino acid metabolism induced by intense exercise. Role of Protein & Amino...
