7 Ways for Women to Look Great Naked!

Lucas Wold asked:

My gym is located right by Lake Tahoe, which is home to the sexiest beaches in Nevada, hands down. It should come as no surprise then, that I am most often called on for help lookin’ good in a bikini.

Here are SEVEN of my sizzling hot tips to help you raise your metabolism through the roof, so you’ll be lean and **** and looking great ***** before strutting your stuff on the beach:

1. Supplement your diet with krill oil, whey protein, and a greens booster.

This is the magic combination to stoke your metabolic fire. Krill oil helps increase your fat burning powers, whey protein builds lean, **** muscle, and the greens supplement will keep everything nice and balanced.

2. Train with resistance.

Training for strength, either with weights or your own bodyweight is one of the absolute best ways to transform your body. Lean muscle is what gives your body that **** shape. Plus, muscle tissue raises your metabolism so that you will burn fat even while you’re asleep!

3. Use intervals.

Traditional cardiovascular training has been shown to be ineffective for fat loss. Much better is to train with intervals. Intervals are simply periods of higher intensity activity alternated with lower intensity periods. For instance, if you use a spin bike, an interval workout could be 30 seconds pedaling as hard as you can mixed with 30 seconds of easy spinning.

4. Eat breakfast every day.

Having a nutritious breakfast each and every day is one of the very first things my fat loss clients focus on. It is THAT important for fat loss. Breakfast is your chance to get your day going right, make the most of it.

5. Make sure at least a third of your calories come from fat.

It might sound strange, but you can’t lose fat unless you eat fat. Your body won’t release its fat stores until it is sure it will have enough fuel coming in. As a bonus, healthy fats will keep your skin supple, smooth, and glowing. THAT sure helps you look great *****!

6. Hire an expert.

Fitness professionals are experts at blasting fat off of their clients as fast as possible. Whatever your situation, they’ve seen it before and can help you overcome all of your obstacles to success.

7. Get plenty of sleep.

A full night’s sleep every night will fast-track you on your path of looking great *****! Your body produces fat burning hormones while you sleep, especially if you’ve been following the other six tips in this article.

Are you ready to be lean and **** this summer?

You’ve got all of the tools you need, now get started!

Lipids, Glorious Lipids: a Guide to Beneficial Oils

Posted by admin Web Hosting Wednesday 4 October 2006 1:05 am

Marie Veronique Nadeau asked:

Lipids, Glorious Lipids: Part Two

Last month I talked about the stratum corneum and the importance of lipids in maintaining lipid barrier function in the top layer of the epidermis. This lipid barrier keeps water from evaporating on the skin’s surface, and is crucial to preventing dehydration. We all know how these cold, wintry days can dry out our skins.

The questions I’d like to raise this time are the obvious ones every researcher is asking. First of all, we must consider if there is any value to incorporating lipids in various types of skin treatment products.

In examining this question we can look at two scenarios. One is that if certain lipids are contained in skin treatment products, these lipids will be incorporated into the intercellular lipid matrix and lipid barrier. Once incorporated they will assist in repairing the matrix and barrier, thus increasing the moisture binding properties of skin leading to reduced moisture loss and improved skin health. The second scenario is that topically applied lipids will remain on the surface and may leave a pleasant, emollient, cosmetically-appealing feel, but no other benefit.

Here are some facts to consider:

One researcher has demonstrated that a mixture of three lipids (cholesterol, palmitic acid and ceramide) repaired the lipid barrier in skin where lipids were intentionally removed by the use of acetone. The symptoms were relieved with linoleic acid applied topically. Indications are that topical application may be beneficial to people with essential fatty acid deficiency syndrome (EFAD).

Other investigators have shown that topically applied lipids can assist in repairing the lipid barrier, if not by directly replacing damaged or lost lipids, then by absorpting into the lipid barrier and exerting their own water barrier properties. The information to date indicates that lipids in cosmetic products exert a beneficial effect upon the lipid matrix of skin, and incorporating lipids in a cosmetic product will enhance that product’s ability to moisturize and improve the health of skin.

Whether topically applied lipids actually replace lost lipids or are simply absorbed the outcome remains the same- applying the correct lipids will assist in maintaining the structure of the lipid barrier and improving the health and beauty of the skin.

This positive conclusion begs the question: Which lipids are critical to barrier function that should be part of a “lipid mix”?

The answer to this question is currently under scrutiny-lipid research in the cosmetic field is very new, and we have quite a way to go before we can begin to provide systematic answers.

To make an increasingly long story much too short, here is what we know:

1) The composition of lipids compromising the extracellular matrix are 50% ceramides, 25% cholesterol and 15% free fatty acids.

2) Essential fatty acid deficiencies have been identified as resulting in abnormalities in stratum corneum function.

Bearing this in mind I have, for the last year, been investigating the properties of various lipids from natural sources, both plant and animal. My goal is to create the best lipid mix available to help you heal and maintain the all-important lipid barrier. As most of you probably know by now, my decision to incorporate oils from animal as well as plant sources is based on my conviction that the best blend will, of necessity, come from a combination of both sources. A plant/animal mix ensures that you get the needed essential fatty acids in the right ratios. I also recommend that you take a fish or krill oil supplement every day to ensure that you maintain beautiful, glowing skin.

Below are just some of the lipids I have chosen for their beneficial properties:

Sea Buckthorn oil–The major EFAs contained in seabuckthorn oil are oleic and linoleic acids. It also contains the following essential fatty acids: pentadecenoic, palmitoleic, heptadecenoic, linolenic, eicosenoic, eicosadienoic, erucic and nervonic. Among the carotenes found in Seabuckthorn are alfa- and beta-carotenes, lycopene, cryptoxanthin, zeaxanthin, taraxanthin and phytofluin. Tocopherols are primarily vitamin E and gamma-tocopherol. Phytosterols of seabuckthorn oil include beta-sitosterol, beta-amirol and erithrodiol.

Marula oil’s high content of palmitic acid creates a protective coating on the surface of the skin. It also has a high concentration of anti-oxidants.

Red raspberry seed oil possesses an exceptionally high proportion of alpha and gamma tocopherols (Vitamin E), vitamin A and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Red raspberry seed oil offers the skin broad spectrum protection from damaging UV-A and UV-B rays.

Cranberry seed oil is rich in tocotrienols (vitamin E) and other antioxidants, and possesses a unique balance of omega 3, 6 and 9 EFAs not found in other oils.

Emu oil possesses the balance of omega 3, 6 and 9 EFAs that is ideal for healing skin and promoting skin, hair and nail growth. It is anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, has a natural SPF, is a natural emollient and moisturizer, penetrates multiple layers of skin, is non-comedogenic, hypo-allergenic, prevents and diminishes scarring/stretch marks and more. It is recommended for use in a variety of skin disorders and allergies.

Pomegranate seed oil is high in lipids including pucinic acid. Its high polyphenol content makes it a strong anti-oxidant, and it contains conjugated fatty acids which gives it strong anti-inflammatory properties.

Krill oil (from a crustacean) contains vitamin E, vitamin A, vitamin D and canthaxanthin, which is, like astaxanthin, a potent anti-oxidant. The anti-oxidant potency of krill oil is such that when compared to fish oil in terms of ORAC (Oxygen radical absorptance capacity) values it was found to be 48 times more potent than fish oil.

The astaxanthin found in krill oil provides excellent protection against ultraviolet light and UV-induced skin damage.

What is Krill Oil?

Posted by admin Web Hosting Friday 29 September 2006 10:59 pm

james dalton asked:

As we age our bodies act differently and our lifestyles changes accordingly. We are unable to do the things we used to do and our bodies do no react the same way. This is part of the reason why the supplement market is a billion dollar industry. Supplements are available for a wide range of health problems, one such product is krill oil. The purpose of this article is to look at the use of this oil noting its benefits and more.

Krill oil is created from the crustacean called krill. Omega-3 fatty acids are in abundance in krill. These fatty acids can also be found in fish oil. Contained in the oil is Vitamin E, Vitamin A and a powerful antioxidant called astaxanthin. The stability of the oil is based on the antioxidant that is contained in it, which is very potent.

Krill are small shrimp crustaceans that can be found throughout the oceans of the world. The most popular that are used in the making of oil is usually found in the Arctic Ocean. Whales, fish and other sea creatures use these animals as a main food source. Whales often consume large amounts of krill daily and because they are so abundant, then it is always a renewable source.

Krill oil extracted from these crustaceans contains important omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA and DHA. These fatty acids are typically found in fish oils. Antioxidants, Vitamin A and Vitamin E are all contained in krill oil. PCBs and other heavy metals are non existent in the pristine waters of the Arctic.

It should be noted that if you have known allergic reactions to shellfish then you should not take this oil. The same goes if you have a known blood coagulation disorder, or are taking anticoagulants. The use of the oil is safe and there are no detrimental side effects that have been attributed with its use. The oil is stable and will last up to 2 years. You should also ensure that it is not stored in the refrigerator or freezer. At temperatures higher than 100 degrees or lower than 50, the oil loses its effectiveness as the phospholipids contained in the oil are reduced.

Cod Liver Oil Vs Krill Oil and How to Strengthen Your.

Posted by admin Web Hosting Saturday 3 June 2006 8:35 pm

kevingianni asked:

http://www.therenegadehealthshow.com - Lisa, an astute viewer of the show, asked an incredible question about yesterday’s post…

Here it is:

“I too have heard great things about cod liver oil. However, when I consulted my chiropractor on this he said that he would advise against it because the oil is obtained from the liver, a filter where the toxins are built up and concentrated and would definitely not be healthful. Is there an alternative and why would it be done that way? Any suggestions?”

I have an answer for this as well as a routine to strengthen your wrists. Many of the exercises that I recommend are very difficult if your wrists are weak.

Take a look… (There’s also a contest for this show’s question of the day, so watch the whole thing!)

hamsteradorer asked:

My frog & tadpole bites consist of:
anchovy meal, krill meal, dried squid, fish oil, blood meal, wheat flour, lecithin, and beta carotenes as the first 8 ingredients. It also smells the same as triop food. I don’t have a lot of triop food. Can they eat the frog food?
