10 FASCINATING FACTS ABOUT THE HUMAN BODY





Hey, it's Marco! You ever wonder what causes muscle soreness after exercising (it's not what you think) or why your nose gets runny when it's cold outside? Did you know that Humans have more than five senses? Why do guys hurt when they're kicked in a certain "private" area? And why is it nearly impossible to tickle yourself? Here are 10 interesting facts I bet you weren't aware of... Read on!

HOW SEXUAL ACTIVITY MAKES YOU YOUNGER AND SMARTER!



How Sexual Activity Makes You Younger and Smarter

Marco here! Having regular sex may help us grow new brain cells, according to scientists from Princeton University in the United States. And the more sex you have, the more cells you can grow, it seems. Animal studies, published in the journal PLoS ONE, suggest that sex stimulates the growth of brain cells in the hippocampus, the part of the brain responsible for memory and learning. Factors such as stress and depression have been shown to shrink the hippocampus, yet exercise and sex counteract this effect. Furthermore, sex could actually be protecting our brain cells against decline... So have some today! And tonight, and tomorrow. And the next day, and the next day, and the next...

Ahh... Love!

WAS WATERMELON THE FIRST VIAGRA?




Wow! This is interesting... "Nature's Viagra!" Concentrated within every piece of watermelon and heavily concentrated in the watermelon rind is an amino acid known as Citrulline. Citrulline promotes healthy circulation and the proper flow of blood through the system, helping to treat hypertension, angina and other cardiovascular issues. It also promotes healthy sexual function and has been touted as Nature's Viagra! Additionally, it plays a role in clearing fatigued muscles of ammonia & lactic acid thereby freeing up the muscle for fresh energy production.

Could it Be?

Constipation and Breathing... Learn This!



Hey, it's Marco! This natural breathing exercise for quick-constipation-relief help has been used by more than 150 Soviet and Russian medical doctors on thousands of their patients with striking success. The exercise works quickly for children, during pregnancy, and to ease chronic constipation too since the exercise helps to get rid of spasm providing more O2 and blood for all GI organs...

WHAT THE HELL IS A "SQUATY POTTY?" You're Gonna Love This!



Some of you fine folks out there on Planet Earth may just want to purchase one of these things! Oh, and never hold your breath while "pooping." A Buddy of mine is an EMT and has told me countless stories of 911 calls he's responded to due to people, especially elderly folks, holding their breath and/or straining on the toilet and passing out! Kinda funny, but then again... Can you imagine? You're in the hospital and someone asks you what happened... Uh, I fell off the toilet... Duh! So sad, but true! If you have constipation issues, look at your diet! And eat more fiber! Remember, everyone poops! Daily!

CAN BIG PHARMA RUIN YOUR SEX LIFE? You Betcha!



How Beautiful!

Hey, it's Marco! Look around, what do you see? I see Life and it's everywhere. What does that mean? It means that people, plants and animals and pretty much everything else that lives on this planet all make babies. You do, I did, and I expect someday, our children will too. Nuthin' like a good romp in the sack with your darling, lovable, hot spouse, eh? (Your married Spouse, of course for all you pretentious goody two shoes, Ahem...) But what happens when you've let yourself go, just got too busy to stay healthy and find yourself on Pharma drugs? (And no, I've never tried Viagra. Thank Heaven for Testosterone!) Look, common medications can affect sexual functioning for both men and women. Which ones? Well, you MUST ask your doctor when he/she writes your prescription. ASK! "Hey doc, umm, you know, uh, will this drug jack my stuff in the bedroom?" ASK!
One of the most common health issues affecting our sexuality is prescription medication, and most medications have side effects. When these are minimal or trivial, we ignore them. Hey, it happens. But some side effects are major. Got anal leakage? Honey, what's that perfume you're wearing?! When these drugs affect your sexual functioning, ignoring them is difficult. Come on, you can't ignore this stuff!


The most common unwanted effects that drugs have on sexuality involve reduced desire, limited arousal and inhibited or impossible orgasm. Impossible orgasm? That's not fun! Here are common sexual side effects of some popular medications:


Antidepressants: inhibited arousal and orgasm

Antihypertensives: inhibited erection

Anti-inflammatories: inhibited erection, difficult orgasm, increased skin sensitivity

Ulcer medication: limited desire, inhibited erection

Birth control pills: limited desire, decreased lubrication

Allergy and Asthma medications: can have a drying effect inside the body and cause reduced vaginal lubrication

Male baldness drugs: Hey Guys, get this!

• Ejaculation disorders (oopsies!)
• Libido disorders (not tonight honey, you're on your own) ---> (adam and eve dot com)
• Orgasm disorders (still nothing?)
• Erectile dysfunction (life is hard, but you're not)
• Male infertility (well, at least you're savin' on day care)

And the best part about these male baldness drugs? These effects continue even after you stop using the drugs!

And Ladies, you're at risk too! Some medications can adversely impact the ability for you to become aroused or reach orgasm. These meds work on both the brain and the genital tissues. If you were having pleasurable sex before taking medicine and then all of a sudden you can't have an orgasm or have no desire to have sex, I'd bet money that drugs are the culprit! Or your husband's six pack! (Beer?)

Okay, gotta get back to work. Final thoughts: Most doctors, heck, most people aren't going to talk about problems in the bedroom. If you're having no sex drive and you think it might be from your medication, talk to your doctor and just ASK! You'd ask if the drugs made you woozy, so ask if you find your sex drive has gone on vacation!

Just thinkin' about ya... Now you know. 



THE 15 MINUTE RULE! For when you just don't feel like it!




And a big "THANK YOU!" to Dr. Rob Gilbert for teaching me this lesson! 

Hey, Marco here! You've heard me preach it before but here it is again!

It's the START that STOPS most people. You have heard it said, “half the battle is showing up.” I know you know this but, how well do you apply this in your life? What have you taken action on recently? Do you take regular action toward your goals? Do you even have any goals, aspirations?

If you answered no to any of these questions, then you are in the majority. (Fat, Tired, Drug dependent) And you certainly don't want to be the majority!  We need to get you started. So how do you become the minority? You gotta get busy gettin' busy! Why? Because without energy, nothing's happening!

Listen, you want to know what procrastination is? It's getting ready to get ready. Most people procrastinate because things aren't perfect in the present moment. So let me ask you, "when will the perfect moment come for you?" Tomorrow? Next week? Next year? Imagine if you had started exercising one year ago where you would be today! Wow! I know, I know, everyone has an excuse! But is there any validation to your excuses? Nay Nay!

Remember, action beats inaction anytime. So get started today. Never worry if conditions are ideal. With intensity and consistency, you'll make conditions more ideal.

Still having a problem getting started? Well here's where the 15 minute rule applies. Take action for 15 minutes. Exercise, study, clean the house... And go  "easy.” Just not too easy and something amazing will happen. You'll slowly turn your "I got to" into an "I GET too!" See how easy that is! Put your body in motion and the Emotion will follow!

This always works!  One of the best ways to change your feelings is to change the way you are moving. Begin by acting as if. Move the way you want to feel, even if this feels fake at first. Fake it till you make it, and fake it till you feel it.

Emotion creates motion, and motion creates emotion. This relationship is called a reciprocal interaction. So there. You learned something new today! Now Go! BE! Get er Dun!

Thank God it's Friday!

Stay healthy!

THINK ORGANIC MILK IS BETTER? Nay Nay!






Marco here! got milk? Many people have switched to buying organic milk because the awareness of how dangerous conventional milk is due to hormones, antibiotics, and GMOs used in the production of milk is increasing rapidly in health and food communities.
But did you know that organic milk can still come from feedlots and undesirable environments, just like conventional milk? Here are important reasons why organic milk may not be the best choice for your family:

Numero Uno! THE WRONG KIND OF FEED!


Sure, these producers are not allowed to use hormones or antibiotics. But many larger organic producers – and some smaller ones – still feed their cattle unsuitable feed that can cause digestive distress for cattle. Cattle are ruminants which means they are meant to eat grass, fibrous plants, and shrubs. Grassfed cattle naturally stay healthier when on pasture and are under low-stress when eating the correct feed intended by nature. These animals usually don’t need to be treated with drugs.
Many organic facilities that produce milk feed their cows soy, corn, and grain, and sometimes other types of miscellaneous feed. These are unnatural and produce  inflammatory which causes an acidic environment in the cow’s digestive tract and body, and set the stage up for disease. This is why many farmers administer antibiotics... Read on below!

Peace Is The Only Way...



Remember, pees is the only way...   (wink wink)

WHAT'S SAFER? ALCOHOL. OR WEED?




Hey, it's Marco! Hmm, I was just curious, but I'm thinkin' WEED, not that I have time for either... let's see what the facts state...


* Many people die from alcohol use. Nobody dies from marijuana use. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that more than 37,000 annual U.S. deaths, including more than 1,400 in Colorado, are attributed to alcohol use alone (i.e. this figure does not include accidental deaths). On the other hand, the CDC does not even have a category for deaths caused by the use of marijuana.

* People die from alcohol overdoses. There has never been a fatal marijuana overdose. The official publication of the Scientific Research Society, American Scientist, reported that alcohol is one of the most toxic drugs and using just 10 times what one would use to get the desired effect could lead to death. Marijuana is one of – if not the – least toxic drugs, requiring thousands of times the dose one would use to get the desired effect to lead to death. This “thousands of times” is actually theoretical, since there has never been a case of an individual dying from a marijuana overdose. Meanwhile, according to the CDC, hundreds of alcohol overdose deaths occur the United States each year.

* Alcohol use damages the brain. Marijuana use does not. Despite the myths we've heard throughout our lives about marijuana killing brain cells, it turns out that a growing number of studies seem to indicate that marijuana actually has neuroprotective properties. This means that it works to protect brain cells from harm. For example, one recent study found that teens who used marijuana as well as alcohol suffered significantly less damage to the white matter in their brains. Of course, what is beyond question is that alcohol damages brain cells.

I could go on, but why?

ALLEGATION #1
“There is a serious drug problem in this country.”

TRUTH
America does have a serious drug problem and our public policy needs to better address this issue with health and science-based educational programs, and by providing more accessible treatment to those who are drug-dependent.

In this sense, there is a serious drug enforcement problem in this country. Despite the notion that America’s drug war focuses primarily on targeting so-called hard drugs and hard drug dealers, data compiled by the FBI reports that 46 percent of all drug arrests are for marijuana.

IS YOUR VITAMIN C ON GMO'S? Gotcha Thinkin' huh...



Marco here! Interesting topic huh? GMO vitamins! Some of you might know this already but many do not know yet about the truth of most vitamins and supplements being sold worldwide.

"As we complement our organic whole foods-based diet with herbs and supplements, we need to make sure that these vitamins and botanicals are derived from naturally occurring plant and mineral sources, and that they contain no synthetic chemicals whatsoever," says Organic Consumers.

"Vitamins E (tocopherols) and C are the most common vitamins raising GMO concerns, since E is derived from soy and C from corn." What next? GMO children?

Fake Vitamin C!

CHRONOS MOVIE! YOU'RE GONNA LOVE THIS! Or not...




 Chronos is an audio/visual movie that is almost entirely done in time lapse photography. It was made back in 1984-ish and is all about layers of time.

Stonehenge, Egypt, Monument Valley, Pompeii – there’s just so many places that are showcased and all of them are stunningly beautiful. What does this have to do with health and wellness? Everything! It's beautiful!

Baraka! A Visual Journey...



"The word Baraka means 'blessing' in several languages; watching this film, the viewer is blessed with a dazzling barrage of images that transcend language. Filmed in 24 countries and set to an ever-changing global soundtrack, the movie draws some surprising connections between various peoples and the spaces they inhabit, whether that space is a lonely mountaintop or a crowded cigarette factory. So sit back and enjoy this visual journey...    got wine? 

Samsara Documentary New Trailer



SAMSARA is a Sanskrit word that means “the ever turning wheel of life” and is the point of departure for the filmmakers as they search for the elusive current of interconnection that runs through our lives.  Filmed over a period of almost five years and in twenty-five countries, SAMSARA transports us to sacred grounds, disaster zones, industrial sites, and natural wonders.  By dispensing with dialogue and descriptive text, SAMSARA subverts our expectations of a traditional documentary, instead encouraging our own inner interpretations inspired by images and music that infuses the ancient with the modern. I promise, this will be Beautiful!

FLUORIDE: PANACEA OR POISON?





Approximately half of the United States' drinking water supply is fluoridated in an attempt to reduce dental cavities in children. Is this state of affairs justified? Is it safe?

Hey! Marco here! Avoid fluoridated water! Boiling water removes chlorine, but concentrates fluoride. Water filters do not remove fluoride, unless there is a reverse osmosis component. Children should avoid fluoridated vitamins and fluoride treatments at the dentist. Everyone should avoid fluoridated toothpaste. The concentration of fluoride in water is 1 ppm, in toothpaste 1,000 ppm and in fluoride dental rinses 10,000 ppm. Work on your legislators to get fluoride out of the water supplies!

EVIL WAYS TO SHED WEIGHT! DON'T DO IT!



Oopsies! Wrong picture... **please see below! **

Hey, Howdy, Hey! You really want to shed some weight? Take your time, do it right! I don't care to use the word "Lose" as some people tend to associate this word with a loss. And we know how you feel when you "lose" something... In another life I was a Therapist!


1. Purge diets (bulimia) - You'll see these skinny mini's down at The Scarf and Barf Cafe! These diets are some of the most extreme and dangerous methods for weight loss. Vomitting, laxatives, diuretics all fall under this category and can be disastrous for your health and well being. Trying to shed weight is never a good enough reason to put your life in this much jeopardy. If you are currently struggling with bulimia please get help immediately! And then eat something, a burger, with fries, not like half a grape.

2. Crash diets - Crash diets are little more than starving yourself for vanity and are quite dangerous. Crash dieting causes malnutrition and in some extreme cases, death. Crash dieting will set you up for failure! That's why it's called a "crash" diet! Wow, just noticed that the first three letters in diet are D-I-E.. See, I am a geiness! (Genius-LOL)

3. Surgery (liposuction, gastric bypass) – This is one of the most extreme options for weight loss and should only be considered in emergency situations. That being said, I can’t imagine a situation where diet and exercise wouldn’t be both better for you and more effective. Many look to surgery for a “quick fix”. However, if they aren’t careful, they often find themselves gaining back the weight. Plus, no surgery is without risk and side effects. I’d say the surgery option is only for those extreme cases and where it is recommended by a doctor. But then again, the time spent in "RECOVERY" could have been used in the gym, or the track, or the pool, or in a really killer cross fit class... Or dancing naked with your significant other! Or at my house chasing kids...

4. Appetite suppressants – These drugs have been associated with many dangerous side effects, including fatal pulmonary hypertension and heart valve damage. Some studies have even linked strokes to the use of appetite suppressants. Regardless of their results, these drugs are not worth the risk to your health.

5. Fat burners – While these drugs have shown some results, most are in fact, quite dangerous. So take them with a vodka and red bull! (Just kidding...) Several have already been pulled off the market due to their side effects. Most, if not all, are unregulated by the FDA, which means nothing btw... Er, I mean that they do not undergo the same quality checking that real products do. Also, while they may help some to cut weight, they do nothing towards increasing your health and well being.
**PS. FDA stands for Flippin' Dumb Asses...**

6. Fad diets (Atkins, south beach, Foo Foo, etc) – These sometimes show some results, but most are either not healthy or otherwise unsustainable. For example, the Atkins diet encourages large amounts of fats and cholesterol which can be really acidic while eliminating good and healthy carbs. As I see it, the only thing these fad diets are good for though is taking people’s money. I'm tired. Gotta get some sleep! ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzz.... Good night!

** Was kinda shocked when I stumbled upon this Hate Pic! God hates fags? Really? That's just horrible! I'd like to meet this evil person! Come on.. God said hate? God said fag? Does God hate fat people? How bout that kid who stole my bike back in 3rd grade?  As I see it, hate no one! 

The poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote, “If we could read the secret history of our enemies we would find in each man’s sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.”
Harboring anger and hatred toward anyone guarantees that you remain in low energy fields where problems will continue to crop up repeatedly in your life. Try examining every relationship in which you feel judgmental thoughts of anger and hatred. Replace those thoughts with energies of acceptance, kindness, cheerfulness, and love. You will have to make a personal commitment to, first of all, notice what you are feeling and then exercise your ability to choose to send love. When your heart becomes pure, your enemy becomes your friend, or even more significantly, your teacher. Your worst enemies are your greatest teachers because they allow you to examine the emotions of anger and revenge and then to transcend them. They give you the exact tools you need to elevate yourself to the spiritual energies that eliminate problems and provide solutions. When you send love in response to hate you accomplish one of the most difficult things for anyone.

Lesson learned: From the Buddha, “We live happily indeed, not hating those who hate us. Among men who hate us we dwell free from hatred.”

Be well! Stay healthy and free of hate!

A Theory of Everything (else)...



You should probably take a "looksee" at this... If you're a Dork like me. It's kinda interesting!

Veggies, Fruits, Pesticides and Vinegar? Yuck!



Have no idea how to start this one... But let's try anyway!

There are a number of different types of vinegar; each with its own set of benefits and uses. White distilled vinegar is useful for cleaning and horticultural purposes, while fruit vinegars such as apple cider vinegar has many reported health benefits when taken internally.
The only vinegar that is best avoided altogether is 20% vinegar, which is a petroleum derivative that is dangerous to breathe and can be damaging to your eyes and skin.
A vinegar solution can also be used to remove certain pesticides and bacteria from your fresh produce. Other uses include hair care, and improving the pH of alkaline water, which can benefit plant growth
Recipes for treating a sore throat; treating various types of pet ailments; and making a non-toxic weed killer are included... Read on!

Yoga! Life changing! 



Dashama T-shirts! LOL! Just kidding... But that would be awesome! I'd wear one...

YOU'RE NOT GETTING OLDER, YOUR GETTING WEAKER! AND LAZIER...




Quick Rant...

Hey, it's Marco! Just a quick tip to help you shed a few pounds for the summer! Hey guys, remember when you loved to wash your car! Now, your Wife or significant other takes it to the car wash for $50 bucks and has it washed for you. Remember how we used to take out the trash, now we have our children do it for us. Ladies, remember when you used to take the stairs to tone that hiney and those legs, now you take the elevator! Remember biking outside just for the hell of it because it was a beautiful day? How about mowing the grass? Do you have a lawn service? Remember when sex was more than a chore? Remember the passion, the kisses and the sweat? Do you have your kids take the groceries inside? You have accountants doing your taxes, while you waste your brain on mindless television? Are you helping your children with their homework or have you hired a tutor? Guys, what happened to the chin up bar and dumbbells in your closet? And ladies, where did all your yoga dvd's and jump ropes end up? The garbage? Yes, I know, we're all busy, but please, get back in the game! Find the time, make the time! It's the start that stops most people! If you walk one mile a day, every day for a year, that's 365 extra miles you've walked! Imagine if you walked two! Forget the plastic surgery, forget the botox, (okay, well maybe a little) forget the magic pills, they don't exist! Stop being so lazy! We only get one shot at this life! Make it count! Remember, put your body in motion, and the emotion will follow! Oh yeah, the tip: GOYA! (Get off yer arse!)

PEPSI AND GMO's? Wait, what? Really?


got pepsi? 

     Hey Howdy Hey! Marco here... Most people just think of soda when they hear the name “Pepsi.” But in fact, PepsiCo is the nation’s largest food company and second largest in the world. Its annual earnings top $60 billion, from a dizzying array of brands. Walk down almost any supermarket aisle (soda, snacks, cereal, juice) and you’re likely to bump into a PepsiCo-owned product.
     PepsiCo brands span five divisions: Pepsi-Cola, Frito-Lay, Gatorade, Tropicana, and Quaker. While most consumers probably think of processed snacks and cereal-type products when trying to avoid foods containing GMOs, beverages are also a major culprit (which explains why Coca-Cola has donated more than $61,000 to the No on 37 campaign). Somebody gettin' fat!

THIS IS JUST AWESOME! Herbs! Spices!



Marco here! Indian cooking is famous for its spices. While sometimes they might be too hot for your taste buds or have potent flavor, Indian spices have several potential health benefits which make it worthwhile to include them on your dinner menu. However, you should always consult with your doctor before starting an Indian spice regimen because I'm certain they are experts on these types of things, right? Why do we always have to ask our doctor anyway? I don't get it...

BET YA DIDN'T' KNOW THAT...



Happy Tuesday! I think it's Tuesday. See what happens to your brain when you live at work... Someday, I will have a Life! But until that happens---

Wanna know how soft drinks and fries make so much money? A soda at a fast food restaurant is marked up about 1200 percent. Fries are marked up about 500 percent.

Wanna know how to make a McGriddle? Here's what you'll need:
Cake: Consisting of wheat, flour, vegetable shortening and three different types of sugar.
Egg: Factory farm cancer egg which includes sodium acid pyrophosphate, a leather stain remover.
Cheese: Only buy the processed with preservatives and flavor enhancers. You know, the ones created in a lab somewhere.
Bacon: Make sure that it's real bacon, manufactured with a carcinogenic ingredient known as sodium nitrite. This is used as a color fixer by meat companies to turn packaged meats a bright red color so they look fresh. Fry it all up and eat. Yum.

Did you know that most fast food chemical enhancers include:
Sodium Phosphate: Found in fast food coffee and detergents.
Titanium dioxide: You can find this in dressing and sunscreen.
Dimethylpolysiloxane: (that's my Hunny's maiden name btw) Found in McNuggets and Silicone salt.
Azodicarbonamide: One can always find this tasty little morsel in Subway breads. Oh yeah, it causes asthma.

Critical violations per 100 health inspections: 
Did you know that McDonald's restaurants received the most health citations for being the largest offender of hand washing violations? KFC received 102 health citations for having too much mold on their soda nozzles and for serving expired chicken pot pies. Arby's was cited for leaving roast beef at room temperature too long. Dairy Queen employees are constantly caught handling raw meat and then serving their delicious fake ice cream with meat goop on their hands. Wendy's had 84 violations for failure to properly cook food before serving...

Gotta love fast food! Buy a cool lunch box. Take your own lunch! And be glad you have me! Someday I'll be a Sufi Master! (not really...)

WE INTERRUPT THIS BLOG FOR LAUGHTER! "The" Best Medicine!

Vaccines-The True Weapons Of Mass Destruction?



Hope I'm not offending anyone out there in Vaccine Land, however, if you truly believe the only way to protect yourself from some dreaded disease is through a needle...

2011 recommended immunizations for children from birth through six years old


Oh yeah, presently, compliance with the CDC's immunization schedule for children from birth through 6 years of age requires 60 vaccines be administered, purportedly to make them healthier than non-vaccinated or naturally immunized ones. Sixty vaccines, while a disturbingly high amount (for those who retain the complementary human faculties of reason and intuition), does not, however, correctly convey just how many antigenic challenges these children face in total... but we'll talk more later. Gotta hit the track! 

Thank You Mastin Kipp for more Anthony Robbins!

DO WE REALLY NEED TO DRINK ALL THAT WATER?



Water is the most important substance on earth! Water constitutes four-fifths (80%) of the body's weight and performs and supports the internal functions of animals and plants. The average adult body loses about three and a half quarts daily in perspiration, respiration, urination and defecation. Body temperature is regulated through water. Water makes up 92% of the blood of the body and nearly 98% of intestinal, gastric, salivary and pancreatic juices. Water holds all nutritive factors in solution and acts as a transportation medium of these substances. Water is necessary for proper digestion of food. One of the most important functions of water is to flush toxins from the body. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger. Even mild dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as much as 3%. One glass of water shuts down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied. Lack of water is the number one trigger of daytime fatigue. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.

Water!

EXPENSIVE RUNNING SHOES ARE THE BEST, RIGHT? Nay Nay...



Marco here! Are the most expensive running shoes the best? If you believe they are. The most expensive shoes are usually not the best shoes for your feet. You cannot assume that high price will buy you extra protection or more miles. With the price of some of the shoes, you might expect that they would do the running for you. That would be nice, huh? I bet there's an app for that..

The Perfect Running Shoe!

CAN SMOKING CAUSE BACK PAIN? TRY IT AND SEE...



Another reason to stop smoking! See, sometimes it's okay to quit! A new study strengthens the link between smoking and lower back pain, and also sheds light on the causes of degenerative lumbar spine problems.

Numerous researchers have proposed a link between smoking and low back pain, but the exact nature of that link had remained largely untested in terms of long-term prospective studies. "Because we had the subjects' medical records and answers from self-reported questionnaires over such a long period of time, a 53-year period of time for the oldest patients, we were able to determine if the risk factors, such as smoking preceded the development of the disease years later...
PS! And toss out that can of Smokeless tobacco too!

Why Calcium Supplements Increase Heart Attacks! Whatever...



Calcium or not, you're still gonna die! So get busy livin' or get busy dyin'! Sorry, it's been one of those days... (daze?)

DOES GATORADE ACTUALLY WORK? Nay Nay...



Use this instead...

Marco here... No, it doesn't. Taste good though... Make your own. Use packet shown above (click and get a free sample) with a capful of Apple cider vinegar and a capful of organic maple syrup, or stevia. Add to 8 ounces of clean* water. You're all set! But come on, are you really training that hard? Didn't think so. Just drink water then. got lemon?
*People are stupid.

Gatorade...

Still Nope...

WOW! ARE DOCTORS MORE DANGEROUS THAN GUNS? This Should Be Fun...



Hey, Marco here! No, guns are not more dangerous than doctors, however, this guy has an interesting point. Remember folks, guns don't kill people, doctors, er, I mean people kill people. With guns, knives, cooking... LOL!

Does Chemotherapy Stimulate Cancer Growth?



Mina Bissell's groundbreaking research has proven that cancer is not only caused by cancer cells. It is caused by an interaction between cancer cells and the surrounding cellular micro-environment. In healthy bodies, normal tissue homeostasis and architecture inhibit the progression of cancers. But changes in the microenvironment--following an injury or a wound for instance--can shift the balance. This explains why many people harbor potentially malignant tumors in their bodies without knowing it and never develop cancer, and why tumors often develop when tissue is damaged or when the immune system is suppressed.

“Cancer cells inside the body live in a very complex environment or neighborhood. Where the tumor cell resides and who its neighbors are influence its response and resistance to therapy,” said senior author Dr. Peter S. Nelson, a member of the Hutchinson Cancer Center’s Human Biology Division. “Our findings indicate that the tumor microenvironment also can influence the success or failure of these more precise therapies.” In other words, the same cancer cell, when exposed to different “neighborhoods,” may have very different responses to treatment.'

Lies, Lies, Lies! Everywhere Lies!



We all create our own story! What story do you live in?

LORD GOD! I'M PEE'IN PLASTIC! AND IT'S IN MY BLOOD!



got plastic? 

Whoa! Would you believe that 93% of Americans have "Plastic" in their blood and Urine? How about if I told you that 42% of the rivers tested in America turned up positive for Bisphenol-A or BPA a man made epoxy resin used in the production of most all consumer plastic goods sold in America. These goods include things we use on a daily basis; money, water, food, clothes, toothbrushes, DVD & CD's, eyeglasses and food containers. The BPA Chemical leaches out of these products and into your system. The worst of it comes from microwaved foods and heated beverages like baby formula. Let's take a look at what our government regulatory agencies have to say about Bisphenol-A and its effects on both our environment and our bodies.

Build Your Blood First! Then the Muscle Will Follow!



Hey! Marco here! For All Your So-Called Protein Needs stop eating protein and start eating high concentrations of chlorophyll fruit and vegetable to build healthy blood. Creating and maintaining a healthy and fit body is all about building healthy blood and then from healthy blood to building healthy bones and muscles. Therefore, bones and muscles are made from blood NOT protein. So eat more Kale for building healthy blood. Forget about all this thinking that you need protein. It's a story that needs to END! In fact the less protein you eat the healthier you will get!

Build Your Blood!

ARE FIZZY DRINKS EVIL?



Biological scientist Dr Hans-Peter Kubis, who's just led a study into what soft drinks do to our bodies, has reached some shocking conclusions. When you read what he discovered, you may well choose never to touch the fizzy stuff again.

Hey, it's Marco! Well, it’s no surprise to learn that our consumption of soft drinks has more than doubled since 1985, from ten gallons per person a year to more than 25 gallons.
We know this is not entirely good for us, but could sugary soft drinks be so dangerous that they should carry health warnings? 
This may sound alarmist, but new medical studies have produced worrying results.
Even moderate consumption, a can a day, or just two a week may alter our metabolism so that we pile on weight. The drinks also appear to increase the risk of heart disease, liver failure and hypertension. 
In children, soft drinks have been linked to addict-like cravings, as well as twisting kids’ appetites so they hunger for junk food... Damn! What's left to drink? Water? I'm okay with that!

WANNA BE SUPERHUMAN?




Glasses, lipstick, false teeth, the contraceptive pill and even your mobile phone -- we take for granted how commonplace human enhancements are. Current scientific developments point to a future where cognitive enhancers and medical nanorobots will be widespread as we seek to augment our beauty, intelligence and health.

Superhuman takes a broad and playful look at our obsession with being the best we can be. Items on display range from an ancient Egyptian prosthetic toe to a packet of Viagra, alongside contributions from artists such as Matthew Barney and scientists, ethicists and commentators working at the cutting edge of this most exciting, and feared, area of modern science.


Interesting!

CANNABIS AND YOUR HEALTH!





"If the words "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" don't include the right to experiment with your own consciousness, then the Declaration of Independence isn't worth the hemp it was written on."
- Terence McKenna

In a day and age where possession of an herb like cannabis is an offense punishable by incarceration, it is important for us to reflect on how we arrived at this dark point in time.

Herbs, after all, were put here by God. If you prefer the word Nature, the point is the same, and it was put best by Bob Marley when he said: "you can't tell God it [cannabis] is illegal."

And yet authorities are telling God, and you and me, that is is illegal, despite a growing body of scientific evidence that it has profound potential as a medicine. Does this not in some way call into question the very legitimacy and authority of those who would lay claim to the right to decide what a human can or can not use a natural substance to improve their health, or enliven their spirit? As long as no harm is being done to others in the act of choosing what is best for oneself, who can rightfully take issue with the freedom to choose one's own "medicine"? Sure beats getting hammered with alcohol!

Marijuana! Not Just for Smoking...

Big Pharma Wants to Control the Good Stuff!




Patients, primarily people diagnosed with MS or cancer, spray Sativex beneath their tongues.

GW Pharmaceuticals claims that Sativex is formulated to provide the same health benefits that medical marijuana offers but without that drug's high. GW says that Sativex balances the psychoactive agent THC with cannabidiol (CBD), the chemical believed to be the source of medical marijuana's anti-nausea and cancer-cell-killing effects, in such a way as to eliminate any of the sensations associated with recreational marijuana...
As we see it, Allowing cannabis to circumvent FDA approval sets a dangerous precedent and puts us on a slippery slope." Big Pharma's big contributions to many legislators means they have many elected officials willing to see things the drug companies' way on this, as on many other issues.'


Weed! Grow your own...
