A little more of a bumpy ride this week. My wife went in to see the doctor for a routine visit and ended up in the hospital. She is okay now but needless to say, that was not how we had planned for the week to unfold. She stayed overnight and we were looking forward to her coming home today, but she had a fever and they want to keep her another night. It's my second night as Mr. Mom and while I cherish the time with my daughter, I miss my wife! She's doing fine and they are simply keeping her as a precaution.
It is times like these that it becomes apparent when a small business is, well, a small business. My wife and I are the only ones who do the calls, and neither one of us has been available for several days. I apologize to those who didn't hear from me ... I'm doing my best and look forward to getting caught up once Doreen comes home.
More news on steroids in dietary supplements.
I probably receive about a dozen spam e-mails about hoodia every day, so I finally decided to put together a quick Hoodia Gordonii FAQ ... it shares a brief piece of information and then links out to a very comprehensive article at Bodybuilding.com.
A few cautionary articles like this one are circulating about the dangers of overdosing on vitamins. It is ironic because most people fall far short of what they should be getting, yet that doesn't stop people from making hypothetical statements that the media is eager to pick up and hype. For example, in this article, they mention iron as dangerous in large amounts. Absolutely! That's why quality multivitamins leave it out. It then mentions how Vitamin B6 can cause nerve damage. What they fail to mention is that the quantities required are so huge you'd have to eat handfuls of vitamins to get there in most cases. They mention a piece of nutrition software to help monitor levels ... I wonder if it's as powerful as our own nutrition coach?
I'm enjoying the many "myth-busting" articles that are coming out. If you haven't already read our own Gym Mythology then, well, there is the link. Afte that, mosey on over to be further myth-informed. I'm not just posting this because they agree with my own opinion about the best time of day to train or that nutrition is going to manipulate weight far more quickly than exercise alone.
My son still lives in South Dakota where it is cold, cold, cold with a lot of snow to boot. The town we moved from is close to Rapid City, where a sports editor writes about steps taken to make cutting weight safer.
Here's a little twist on the hype over the health benefits of the Mediterranean Diet. Here's my tip for eggs: if you're going to eat the yolk, get free range or grain-fed for a healthier yolk and poach them to preserve the integrity of the fats. If you want to swap out a few yolks, subtitute them with a teaspoon of olive oil. Yum.
Let's get crazy! No, I mean, there's yet another diet craze. Oh, look, it's another magic pill. I'll pass.
If you've ever read about brown adipose tissue or UCP (uncoupling proteins) you'll find this article about traditional role of adrenaline in fat loss challenged interesting. If not, don't worry about it ... you can still enjoy the article without the B.A.T.
The media is still excited to know that you can lose weight over the phone. My clients have been doing it for years. In fact, I've had to yank the phone-based one-on-one consultations because there is no more time to schedule them! I hope to have space open by Christmas so that those of you interested in a new you in the New Year will have that option available ... e-mail me if you'd like to reserve a spot ahead of time.
It appears that money is a good incentive to lose weight as one employer found out.
Here's some good information that less doesn't always mean more fat loss. If you don't read the article, at least read this one sentence: "Mariash is one of many athletes who have learned that thinner doesn't always mean faster or stronger, and that fitness and conditioning don't work well without proper nutrition." I couldn't have said it better myself, so I won't!
Until next time,
