<p><strong>Managing Weight is Simple - Just Not Easy.</strong></p>
<p>If it were, everyone would be thin.</p>
<p>Since we are not, here are some tips that successful people use to lose weight. Feel free to share them with others so they can benefit, too.</p>
<p>Your desire to become the person you’ve only imagined and a weight management supplement may be the catalyst for helping you achieve your long-term weight management goals.</p>
<p><strong>SUCCESSFUL WEIGHT LOSS TIPS</strong></p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 1: TAKE A WEIGHT MANAGEMENT DIETARY SUPPLEMENT.</strong><br />
Used with common sense exercise and moderate changes in your diet, weight management supplements are an indispensible part of any weight management program.  Choose good quality weight management products, kits or program to help you <a href="http://nupro.net/store/products.asp?44">achieve your weight management objectives</a>.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 2: DRINK 8-10 GLASSES OF WATER EACH DAY</strong><br />
To begin with, you should drink a glass of water in the morning first thing, before you eat.</p>
<p>This is probably the easiest, and the healthiest glass you will drink all day and it will help you remember to drink water all day long.</p>
<p>For some people, this is a problem because water doesn’t really “taste” like anything. Drinking water 8 to 10 times each day gets easier the more you actually do it. It is simply a matter of conditioning your taste buds, and yourself, so that it becomes easier to do.  Once you get started, you will begin to crave water.</p>
<p>If you really cannot bear the taste of water, try using a water purifying pitcher or filter. You can also add a few drops of lemon or lime juice to your water – but no sugar or sweetener! Ice also helps.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 3: EAT BREAKFAST</strong><br />
Do not skip breakfast. If you need to go to bed a little earlier so that you can get up 20 minutes earlier each morning – do it!</p>
<p>Breakfast is so important to your good health and to weight control because it increases metabolism – your body’s fat burning mechanism.   This recipe for <a href="http://nupro.net/newsletters/theperfectbreakfast.asp">The Perfect Breakfast</a> is, well, perfect.</p>
<p>And, it will help you stay on track the rest of the day. You are more likely to binge on something sweet and in the “bread” group if you skip breakfast. You can always keep a couple of hard-boiled eggs in the fridge or some high-fiber, low starch fruit around.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 4: EAT AT LEAST 3 MEALS AND 2 SNACKS EACH DAY</strong><br />
Eating more meals to lose weight sounds wrong, doesn’t it!  Eating more often will increase your metabolism … just like eating breakfast.</p>
<p>Eating regularly also helps you curb your bad carbohydrate intake by making sure that your snacks are planned and occur at regular intervals throughout the day.</p>
<p>It takes a minimal investment of planning time at the grocery store and at home each morning before you head out for the day to make some healthy food choices and prepare a few healthy snacks and meals.</p>
<p>Confused about what meals you can prepare? Tanya Willis&#8217; recipes for 10 healthy meals is a great start &#8211; and <a href="http://nupro.net/taunya's%20recipes/taunya's%20recipe.pdf">preparing and eating healthy meals saves you money</a>.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 5: EAT SLOWLY &amp; ENJOY YOUR FOOD</strong><br />
You will feel full and more satisfied if you take the time to savor your food and chew it slower.</p>
<p>Don’t get in the habit of eating while standing or eating quickly. Sit down and chew. Eating slower will help you enjoy your food more, pay attention to what it is you are actually eating and get a better sense of when you are actually full.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 6: EAT MORE PRODUCE</strong><br />
If the only vegetable you have eaten in the last 5 years has been the potato, now is a good time to begin experimenting with other vegetables.</p>
<p>Eating lots of low-calorie, high-volume, high-nutrient vegetables and fruits crowds out other foods that are higher in sugar, fat and calories.</p>
<p>Move the meat off the center of your plate and pile on the vegetables. Try starting lunch or dinner with a vegetable salad (not a lettuce salad) or bowl of broth-based soup. The U.S. government&#8217;s 2005 Dietary Guidelines suggest that adults get 7-13 cups of produce daily.</p>
<p>Stock your kitchen with plenty of fruits and vegetables &#8211; include a few servings at every meal and snack.</p>
<p>Confused about what to buy at the supermarket? Harvard University School of Public Health can help &#8211; and <a href="http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/what-should-you-eat/">eating healthy saves you money</a>.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 7: CLOSE THE KITCHEN AT NIGHT</strong><br />
Establish a time when you will stop eating so you won&#8217;t give in to the late-night munchies or mindless snacking while watching television.</p>
<p>Have a cup of tea, suck on <strong>one piece of hard candy</strong> if you want something sweet after dinner, but then brush your teeth so you will be less likely to eat or drink anything else.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 8: AVOID WHITE FOODS</strong><br />
This is one easy way to remember what not to eat. If it is made from sugar, flour, potatoes, rice or corn &#8211; just say no. Remembering this rule of thumb will make it easier to recognize those rice cakes as an unhealthy high-carbohydrate snack.</p>
<p>Always look for colorful fruits and veggies to substitute for the white ones. Buy broccoli, bell peppers, green beans and peas, brown rice in moderation, leafy greens like kale and spinach, apples, melons, oranges and grapes. These foods are not only colorful they are also high in fiber, nutrients and important antioxidants. Eating colorful fruits and vegetables will give your diet variety as well as give you added health benefits.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 9: GO FOR WHOLE GRAIN</strong><br />
By substituting whole grains for refined grains like white bread, cakes, cookies and pretzels, you add much-needed fiber and will fill up faster so you&#8217;re more likely to eat a reasonable portion. Choose whole-wheat breads and pastas, brown rice, bran flakes, popcorn and whole-rye crackers.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 10: ADD MORE STEPS</strong><br />
Get yourself a pedometer and gradually add more steps until you reach 10,000 per day.</p>
<p>Throughout the day, do whatever you can to be more active &#8212; pace while you talk on the phone, take the dog out for an extra walk and march in place during television commercials. Having a pedometer serves as a constant motivator and reminder.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 11: TRIM PORTIONS</strong><br />
If you did nothing else but reduce your portions by 10% &#8211; 20%, you would lose weight.</p>
<p>Most of the portions served both in restaurants and at home are bigger than you need. Pull out the measuring cups to get a handle on your usual portion sizes, and work on paring them down.</p>
<p>Get instant portion control by using smaller bowls, plates and cups, because the food will look plentiful on dainty dishware.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 12: CONTROL YOUR ENVIRONMENT</strong><br />
If you don’t buy it, you can’t eat it!</p>
<p>Controlling your environment includes everything from stocking your kitchen with lots of healthy options to choosing the right restaurants. That means avoiding temptation by staying away from all-you-can-eat restaurants.</p>
<p>And when it comes to parties, eat a healthy snack before so you won&#8217;t be starving and be selective at the buffet. Before going back for more food, wait at least 15 minutes and have a big glass of water.</p>
<p><strong>TIP NO. 13: 3-6&#8242;s, 2-9&#8242;s or 1-18</strong><br />
If you aren&#8217;t eliminating wastes, everyday, you are storing it &#8211; and those pounds of stored waste add up faster than you think.  There are estimates that people are storing 10, 20 and even more pounds of waste.</p>
<p>Choose a supplement to <a href="http://nupro.net/store/products.asp?cat=30">promote and support regularity</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Everyone knows that too much sugar is bad for you</strong>.  It can make you “hyper”, fat and sick; give you cavities, diabeties and a whole host of other conditions people would rather not endure.</p>
<p>People are pouring over labels to search out the amount of sugar that is in the products they are purchasing, and ultimately consuming, because it is common knowledge that “Sugar is bad for you.”</p>
<p>When you read sugar on a label, it generally refers to a sweet flavored food additive that is a simple carbohydrate such as sucrose (which primarily comes from sugar cane and sugar beet).  Other simple carbohydrates are used in industrial food preparation, but are usually known by more specific names—glucose, fructose or fruit sugar, high fructose corn syrup, etc.</p>
<p><strong>What most people don’t know is that the term “sugar” is more than table sugar and various syrups</strong>.</p>
<p>Sugar is actually a biochemical term, derived from a more complex term, saccharide, that is a synonym for carbohydrates.</p>
<p><strong>Where the the confusion starts is:</strong>  when experts utter the term “sugar” they, for the most part, are talking about all carbohydrates (saccharides) &#8211; foods that are particularly rich in starch (such as cereals, bread and pasta) and/or sugar (such as soft drinks, candy, jams and desserts).</p>
<p><strong>For dietary purposes</strong>, carbohydrates can be classified as simple or complex.  The term complex carbohydrate denoted fruit, vegetables (that grow above ground) and whole-grains.  This excludes such sources of simple carbohydrates such as candy and sugary drinks; starches such as processed grains, flour and convenience, packaged grain products and vegetables that grow underground.</p>
<p><strong>Simple carbohydrates are not essential nutrients in humans</strong>: the body can obtain all its energy from protein and healthy fats.  Simple carbohydrate provide 4  kilocalories per gram, but because they are absorbed quickly, contribute to spikes in blood sugar and, when needed, a spike in energy.</p>
<p>On the other hand, proteins also contain 4 kilocalorie per gram, while fat 9 kilocalories per gram and, because they require digestion to release their energy, provide a more regulated source of glucose (blood sugar) for energy.*</p>
<p><strong>Complex carbohydrates, which are absorbed more slowly, perform numerous roles in living things</strong> including: storage of energy, structural components , coenzymes and as a component of DNA. Saccharides and their derivatives include many other key roles in the immune system, fertilization, cellular protection, repair and regeneration, blood clotting, and development.</p>
<p>Based on the effects on risk of heart disease, diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular issues and others, attributable to simple carbohydrates, the Institute of Medicine recommends that American and Canadian adults get between 45–65% of dietary energy from complex carbohydrates.</p>
<p>The Food and Agriculture Organization and World Health Organization jointly recommend that national dietary guidelines set a goal of 55–75% of total energy from carbohydrates, but only 10% directly from sugars (their term for simple carbohydrates).</p>
<p>The long and short of the issue of sugar (carbohydrates) is:  glucose is glucose.  Too much, delivered too fast is not good.  Choosing diverse dietary sources of protein, healthy fats and complex carbohydrates, all of which require digestive action, will support the energy requirements of your body in more healthy way.   </p>

<p>*  The <a title="Glycemic index" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycemic_index">glycemic index</a> and <a title="Glycemic load" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycemic_load">glycemic load</a> concepts have been developed to characterize food behavior during human digestion. They rank carbohydrate-rich foods based on the rapidity of their effect on <a title="Blood glucose" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_glucose">blood glucose</a> levels.   Glycemic index is a measure of how quickly food glucose is absorbed, while glycemic load is a measure of the total absorbable glucose in foods.  The <a title="Insulin index" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin_index">insulin index</a> is a similar, more recent classification method that ranks foods based on their effects on <a title="Insulin" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin">blood insulin</a> levels, which are caused by glucose (or starch) and some amino acids in food.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>“Which weight loss supplement can help me lose weight?”</strong> continues to dominate the questions we receive.  And, since the most <strong><em>recent data indicates that 2/3’s of Americans, men, women and children are obese</em></strong>, it is easy to understand the reason for the questions.</p>
<p>The answer is always:  Some can but none will.  You are probably asking yourself:  “What?”</p>
<p><strong>The answer revolves around a simple concept.</strong></p>
<p>All food contains energy (calories) that fuels your body along with nutrition (protein, healthy fats, vitamins, minerals and water) that feeds your body.  In a perfect world, you would be consuming a diet that creates two equations that zero out – which is the basis for the balanced diet.</p>
<p><strong>The equation would be:<br />
</strong>Energy expended = Energy consumed<br />
Nutritional needs = Nutrition consumed produces a healthy, energetic body</p>
<p><strong>An out of balance equation produces predictable outcomes.</strong></p>
<p>When the energy expended is less than the energy consumed the equation is:<br />
<strong>Energy expended + FAT = Energy consumed</strong></p>
<p>When the nutritional needs are less than the nutrition consumed the equation is:<br />
<strong>Nutritional needs + UNHEALTHY = nutrition consumed</strong></p>
<p>Mathematicians are likely pulling their hair out, but the point is when you are making balanced choices, you will experience the preferred outcome.</p>
<p>The report on obesity further indicated that <em><strong>most obese people are malnourished</strong></em>, which would seem to be an oxymoron.  However, if you consider the amount of package, process and fast food (and their food values) that is consumed today, the findings in the report are easy to understand.</p>
<p>The conclusion, in the report, is that<strong> <em>2/3 of the population is fat, malnourished, less healthy and likely to die sooner than any generation before them</em></strong>.</p>
<h3>Finding the Silver Bullet</h3>
<p>This is the precise population that is searching for silver bullets; natural, pharmaceutical or medical, to substitute for their judgment.  Writing from my perspective (I’m not a Medical Doctor or Pharmacist), these people should balance the equation by choosing <a href="http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/what-should-you-eat/">whole food, drinking water, exercise and rest</a>.  All of the excuses in the world will not change the inevitable outcome.</p>
<p><strong>The good news</strong> is that, once they are doing the best they can, supplements can help fill the gap in the equation.</p>
<h3><a href="http://nupro.net/store/weightlosssupplements.asp">Some Can</a> But None Will</h3>
<p>In the final equation, you must <a href="http://nupro.net/store/naturalhealthcenter.asp">change the things you do</a> to change the way things are.</p>
<p><strong>How healthy are you?</strong>  <a href="http://nupro.net/store/nuprohealthmeter.asp">Take the Test</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thanks for all of your comments on weight management. The two questions, most frequently asked about weight loss, revolve around what to eat and how to exercise. Here is an example of one of the many questions we receive and my response:</p>
<p><strong>Question:</strong>  <em>“So happy to enjoy such a insightful article “How to lose weight with diet pills” that does not depend on base posturing to get the topic fulfilled. Thank you for an enjoyable read.</em></p>
<p><em>2 questions: What kind of diet should I go with? I need to get some kind of workout what kind of exercises should I get into? Your input is appreciated.”</em></p>
<p><strong>Response:</strong>  Your questions regarding diet is one I hear often. The key a healthy diet, and successful, long-term weight management is to avoid high calorie/empty nutrition food. The most common culprits are soda, snacks, convenience and fast food, processed and packaged food.</p>
<p>The answer is explained elegantly here:<br />
<a href="http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/what-should-you-eat">http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/what-should-you-eat</a></p>
<p>The short version is: eat 7-9 servings of differently colored, fresh vegetables that grow above ground, a serving of about the size of a deck of cards of fish or poultry each day, a serving about the size of a deck of cards of red once a week, with limited, (if not eliminated) amounts of milk and milk products, white flour (processed wheat, rice and oats), sugar, fruit juice and tropical fruits and vegetables that grow underground.</p>
<p>And <a href="http://nupro.net/store/water.asp" target="_self">drink water</a>; at least 8 – 8 ounce glasses each day. Preferably, you can determine optimum hydration by dividing your body weight by two for the number of ounces of water to drink each day.</p>
<p>Exercise is important, but strenuous exercise takes a toll on your body. I&#8217;m a fan of walking for about 15 minutes a day. The important thing to remember is to vary the pace &#8211; start normally then speed up until you feel your body compensating, then slow down, speed up, slow down.</p>
<p> Also, landing your foot into the arches is important, so shorten your stride. Many people over-stride when they walk which causes excess impact force that radiates from the heel of the foot all the way up through your spine.</p>
<p>Finally, considering a weight management supplement may be appropriate.  I&#8217;m not a fan of many of the supplements on the market because they simply focus on using high amounts of natural stimulants to raise waking time metabolism. </p>
<p>Therefore, my Company approaches the issue of weight management supplements on an around-the-clock basis by restoring the efficiency both daytime and nighttime glucose utilizing.  By default, the regime is intended to <a href="http://nupro.net/store/weightlosssupplements.asp" target="_self">promote and maintain efficient metabolism</a> that, in turn, will address healthy weight management.</p>
<p>Thanks for asking these important questions.  In the end, it is your life,  the choice is yours to make.</p>
<p>How healthy are you?  <a href="http://nupro.net/store/nuprohealthmeter.asp" target="_self">Take the test</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you were shown a substance that: aids in weight loss, reduces puffiness, clears complexion, improves circulation, improves breathing, improves digestion, improves endurance and fights constipation, would you be interested?</p>
<h3>This could be the wonder product of the century!</h3>
<p> I’ll bet you are you asking yourself:  <strong><em>“How much does it cost?” </em></strong>and <strong><em>“Where can I get it?”</em></strong></p>
<h3> Here’s how you can get your supply today:</h3>
<p> Go to your kitchen sink, fill a glass with water and drink it. That’s right – it’s WATER</p>
<p>Incredible as it may seem, water is the most important component of good health known to man.</p>
<p>In fact, 60% &#8211; 70% of the body’s weight is water.  Water is the body’s solvent:  it thins blood, carries away toxins, helps metabolize fat, liquefies consumed food, rinses out organs, balances electrolytes to support nerve function, carries hormones for endocrine function – in short it is the body’s magic potion.</p>
<p>However, when the body gets less water than it needs, it perceives the situation as a threat to its survival and begins to conserve every drop. Many of the cleansing functions of water are affected as it reuses and reuses and reuses the conserved, filthy water.</p>
<p><strong>Drinking enough water is the best treatment</strong> for a whole litany of things – headache, constipation, digestion, sluggishness, clarity of mind, water retention, weight gain – all symptoms of dehydration.</p>
<p><strong>There is a good rule of thumb for drinking enough water:</strong>  divide your body weight by two. The result is the number or ounces of water to consume every day.</p>
<p>Caffeinated beverages such as coffee, soda, energy drinks and certain teas are diuretics, which force the body to expel water. If you consume caffeinated beverages, compensate for their effect by drinking two ounces of water for each one ounce of these beverages</p>
<p><strong>If you are trying to lose weight or are not healthy</strong>, increase the amount by 20%. Contrary to popular opinion, juices, soups and other liquids that require digestion do not count! Water is water!</p>
<p>Follow this schedule to utilize water effectively:</p>
<ul>
<li>Morning (right after rising):  consume one quart of water during a 30-minute period.</li>
<li>Noon:  consume one quart of water during a 30-minute period.</li>
<li>Evening:  consume one quart of water during a 30-minute period.</li>
<li>Drink the remainder of your requirement throughout the day.</li>
</ul>
<p> <strong>The body’s signal for hunger and thirst are similar and are often confused.</strong> Try drinking a glass of water instead of eating something. Your body just might need hydrating instead of a snack!</p>
<p>When the body gets all the water it needs to function efficiently, its fluids are perfectly balanced. Glands, nerves, and bowel begin to function efficiently. Skin begins to glow, water retention subsides, weight normalizes, endurance increases, concentration improves, and on … and on … and on!</p>
<p><strong>P.S.</strong>  Chlorine isn’t good for your body but it kills the stuff that gets in your water pipes that can make you sick. Chlorine is normally a gas … so if you put a one gallon, open topped container full of tap water in your refrigerator before you go to bed, the chlorine will dissipate and your fresh water (without chlorine) will be waiting for you in the morning.</p>
<p><strong>P.P.S.</strong>  Most people are deficient in trace minerals because they aren’t eating enough fresh vegetables (5 to 7 baseball size servings &#8211; daily).  Add an ounce of a <a href="http://www.nupro.net/store/proddetail.asp?prod=34" target="_self">trace mineral supplement </a>to your daily water to fill the gap in your diet.</p>
<p><strong>NOTE:</strong>  Are you doing the best you can to stay healthy?   <a href="http://www.nupro.net/store/nuprohealthmeter.asp" target="_self">Take the test</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Trying to Lose Weight in the Dead of Winter is Next to Impossible.</strong></p>
<p>Those of you who are trying to realize your New Year resolution to lose weight are, in all likelihood, frustrated.  The fact is:  metabolism is turned down every fall; it is restored every spring.  Overwhelming this cycle is not very likely. </p>
<p><strong>Take heart!  Spring is just around the corner.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Children, all over the U.S., will soon be repeating a simple poem:<br />
<em><strong>Spring has sprung, the grass has riz,<br />
I wonder where the flowers is?</strong></em></p>
<p>Plants will be budding, putting on leaves with blossoms springing toward the sun.  Animals will be awakening from their winter doldrums, or their hibernation, to welcome the return of the season of plenty.</p>
<p>It is the cycle of all living things on Earth; it is basic survival and, it is a testament to the adaptability of life on Earth.</p>
<p>Even though people live in modern homes, with central heat, abundant food and water, this natural cycle exerts the same, unavoidable impact on the human body.</p>
<p><strong>There are a few steps you can take can assure you that your metabolism will come roaring back when it is time.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Are you 3 &#8211; 6’s, 2 &#8211; 9’s or 1 &#8211; 18?</strong><br />
It’s time for a spring-cleaning.  Your bowels should move at least once every day – preferably after each meal (3 &#8211;  six inch cigar-shaped.)  Even then, it is a good idea to clean up any residual wastes from the winter diet.  Supplements are especially effective in that regard so, choose <a title="Why are you storing that?" href="http://www.nupro.net/store/proddetail.asp?prod=15" target="_blank">an effective supplement to refresh your bowels</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Are you suffering a hangover from the holiday goodies and/or craving carbs, sugar and starches?<br />
</strong>They, and most other winter foods, are notoriously short of trace minerals. Often referred to as “The Currency of Life”, trace minerals deficiencies have been known to contribute to a listless feeling, cravings and constant hunger.  Once again, the fastest way to address the issue is with <a title="Lacking minerals, vitamins are useless" href="http://www.nupro.net/store/proddetail.asp?prod=34" target="_blank">a full-spectrum trace mineral supplement </a>until fresh, mature vegetables are readily available.  By the way, if you are a vegetable-hater, you should consider trace mineral supplementation year-round.</p>
<p><strong>Feed your Metabolism.<br />
</strong><a title="Your copy of the 3 Day Diet" href="http://www.nupro.net/store/threedaydiet.asp" target="_blank">The 3 Day Diet</a>, once attributed to the Cleveland Clinic, has been around for a long time.  None-the-less, it is still an effective way to feed your metabolism.  Follow the instructions, wait a week to repeat the diet. Two cycles is usually sufficient to jump start metabolism.</p>
<p><strong>If you have packed on more than a few pounds, weight management supplements are in order</strong>.<br />
However, caution in order, too.  Some weight loss supplements rely on stimulants to “spike” wake-time metabolism.  Advertisements for these types of supplements often emphasize energy as their most notable characteristic.  The tendency to consume more than enough sweets, bread and pasta, starchy vegetables, and caffeinated beverages (coffee, tea, soda and energy drinks) may already be taxing metabolic functions.  Adding another source of stimulants may not be the best idea.</p>
<p>A better choice may be <a title="Healthy Weight Management" href="http://www.nupro.net/store/weightlosssupplements.asp" target="_blank">weight management supplements formulated to support metabolic function</a> while managing appetite, cravings and alertness.  While you won’t get the “buzz”, you won’t be anxious and/or jittery either.</p>
<p><strong>Feed your body.<br />
</strong>While it seems counter-intuitive, you must eat to lose weight.  Starvation and low-calorie dieting send a signal to your body that food is in short supply so it goes into survival mode &#8211; protecting fat and reducing metabolism. </p>
<p><strong>What you are consuming is the issue</strong>.<br />
Before you put something in your mouth, ask yourself one simple question:  “Is this going to <a title="Harvard University School of Public Health" href="http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/what-should-you-eat/" target="_blank">feed my body something it needs</a>?”  If the answer is no, don’t eat it.  You already know the answer when you consume junk, packaged, comfort and fast food, so don’t eat them. </p>
<p><strong>Eat, eat, eat.<br />
</strong>Eat <a title="Cholesterol, Blook Pressure and Energy" href="http://nupro.net/pbreakfaststore.asp" target="_blank">breakfast</a>, eat vegetables for lunch, eat a healthy supper early.  You should eat a baseball sized apple or pear for mid-morning and afternoon snacks. (Add a sprinkle of cinnamon and/or a dash of lime juice for variety.)   Here are <a title="What's for Dinner?" href="http://www.nupro.net/taunya's%20recipes/taunya's%20recipe.pdf" target="_blank">10 healthy, easy to fix recipes</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Drink water</strong> to help flush away the byproducts of burning fat – at least 8 – 8 ounces glasses each day.</p>
<p><strong>Lose it and keep it off!</strong><br />
Besides appearance, losing weight is a healthy choice.  Researchers have shown, time and time again, that maintaining a healthy weight will reduce your chances of enduring many of the health issues that are confronting others.</p>
<p>Would you care to know how healthy you are?  <a title="Take the Health Test Challenge" href="http://www.nupro.net/store/nuprohealthmeter.asp" target="_blank">Take the test.</a></p>
<p><strong>Editor&#8217;s Note:</strong>  Rather than the prevalent &#8220;miracle in a bottle&#8221; paradigm, we believe maintaining health is a life-style. We have developed a strategy that promotes and maintains health.  You can review our work at <a title="Stop seeking magic bullets - choose health." href="http://nupro.net/store/naturalhealthcenter.asp" target="_blank">the Natural Health Consulting Center at NURPO</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The number of people who “resolved” to lose weight this year is uncountable. Clubs, gyms, authors of dieting books, manufacturers of diet pills and others must be salivating at the prospect of all the new customers.</p>
<p>If you have vowed to slim down, congratulations on you decision. You will feel better, live longer and, according to a mountain of studies, you may avoid the degenerative diseases that might plague you in later life.</p>
<p><strong>You are faced with the daunting task</strong> . . . deciding how to go about it. Fad diets, excessive exercise and skipping meals will not work for long-term weight management. You will either get tired of the grind, the boring food, the constant hunger, the sore muscles, the inconvenience, the time away from home or work and you will give up.<br />
<strong>Make this motto your motto:<span style="text-decoration: underline;"> weight loss is a journey.<br />
</span></strong>You didn’t gain your weight over night nor will you lose it overnight so, set reasonable objectives.</p>
<h3>Trying to lose weight in the dead of winter is a fool’s mission.</h3>
<p><strong>Here’s something you need to consider:</strong> people are mammals &#8211; mammals hibernate, or slow down their metabolism considerably during the winter months to assure their survival during the cold, least abundant time of the year. They pack away fat for insulation and protection from starvation. In the spring, they “wake up” with higher metabolism and energy. Even though we live and work in buildings with central heating and shop at supermarkets with plenty of food &#8211; people are mammals &#8211; it is unlikely you will change wintertime mammalian metabolism.<br />
<strong>Here’s what you can do until your body is released from winter’s grip:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>You do need to eat three balanced meals everyday to lose weight so, don’t skip any meals – especially <a href="http://nupro.net/pbreakfaststore.asp" target="_self">eat a perfect breakfast</a>. And, if you need “a little something” to eat, sprinkle a little cinnamon on an apple or pear for a tasty treat.</li>
<li>Break the fast food lunch habit. Start a new habit &#8211; bring something from home.</li>
<li>Break the comfort food habit. White flour products, like bread and pasta; starchy foods, like potatoes and rice; table sugar, sugary tropical juices and fruits, like mangos and pomegranates; milk and milk products provide too many calories and too little nutrition.</li>
<li>Break the “What’s for diner habit.” Find <a href="http://www.nupro.net/taunya's%20recipes/taunya's%20recipe.pdf" target="_self">different, more healthful recipes </a>that will suit your pallet and start preparing them. By the time your metabolism rebounds, you will be ready to start burning away the winter fat with your new, but familiar, healthy meals.</li>
<li>Make your plan of action for when winter releases its grip on your body. It should include moderate exercise – everyday. Walking after lunch, an evening stroll with your family or parking further away from your destination adds a good bit of opportunity to burn calories.</li>
<li>Determine why you gained weight in the first place. It isn’t always what you think. Consider <a href="http://nupro.net/store/whyamioverweight.asp" target="_self">other possibilities for your weight gain </a>before you assume you are suffering from gluttony.</li>
<li>Choose a dietary <a href="http://nupro.net/store/managingweightloss.asp" target="_self">supplement to support metabolism, appetite and cravings</a>. Often, lingering <a href="http://nupro.net/store/Minerals.asp" target="_self">mineral deficiencies can affect your success</a>. The combination of a better diet and quality dietary supplements will pay dividends.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>When winter has finally changed to spring, start your program.</strong> Be decisive, dedicated and disciplined.</p>
<p>Your motto should be: losing weight is a journey. It requires a commitment, dedication to your program and the discipline to maintain the choices you’ve made to achieve your objective. Healthy weight loss is in the range of 10 to 12 pounds each month. If you are particularly heavy, it might be more.</p>
<p>Finally, and most importantly, sustaining the changes that you have made to lose the weight will assure you a lifetime of living in your perfect body.</p>

<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 9.0pt;">Although it may seem simple, creating a synergistic nutraceutical formula to help support all of the different areas that promote fast, lasting, meaningful weight loss wasn&#8217;t easy.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There seems to be a variety of opinions regarding the value of diet pills.  There are as many people who have experienced meaningful weight loss from using diet pills as those who have been disappointed.  The simple fact is:  diet pills are not magic bullets.  But, they can be a useful weapon in your personal battle of the bulge.</p>
<p>Regardless of your position,  one of the most popular segments of the dietary supplement industry is weight loss, commonly sold as diet pills, to help people burn fat and lose weight. It is easy to understand why diet pills are so popular with consumers.</p>
<p><strong>Americans are a growing population.</strong><br />
Unfortunately, it is growing wider and wider. Airline seats are becoming too small for the passengers; beds aren’t strong enough to hold the occupants; cars, that used to seat 6 people comfortably, do so for 4 people. Clothing manufacturers are even changing the cut of their clothes. Size 12 isn’t a 12 anymore – it is relaxed fit.</p>
<p><strong>Prior to 2003</strong>, most of the diet pills contained an herb called Ma Huang. It has a stimulating action and, when mixed with a natural caffeine source and a natural aspirin, initiates <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermogenesis" target="_blank">thermogenesis</a>: a process that creates heat by burning calories in the form of stored fat. Users experience increased energy and in most cases, measurable weight loss.</p>
<p><strong>The active ingredient, Ephedra, was banned by F.D.A. in 2003.</strong><br />
The F.D.A. felt these ephedra-based products were dangerous and banned all supplements containing Ma Huang and any other herb that contained this particular plant compound generally referred to as Ephedra.<span> </span>Rightly or wrongly, people lost a valuable tool for weight loss because a few people, who were using the product, refused to follow label instructions.</p>
<p><strong>What are People Doing?</strong><br />
People still want diet pills to help them lose weight. The industry offers a host of diet products that contain stimulants from various sources. Recently, the F.D.A. evaluated weight loss products. After the evaluation, more than 70 of them were recalled because the products were adulterated with unauthorized stimulants. The list is available on <a href="http://www.fda.gov/consumer/updates/weightloss_pills122908.html" target="_blank">Consumer Alert website of the F.D.A</a>.</p>
<p><strong>There are better choices.</strong><br />
There are diet pills on the market that do not rely on over-stimulating the body to help consumers lose weight. But, because they lack the “pop” that was the hallmark of the ephedra-based diet products, they are often overlooked by consumers. In fact, many of these products can be very helpful for achieving meaningful weight loss.</p>
<p><strong>People should expect three things from a diet pill:</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>A quick, experiential change of energy. It isn’t that jittery feeling &#8211; it is a sensation that people often refer to as an awakening.</li>
<li>A sustained, heightened level of energy and focus that, when taken in the morning, carries the consumer through the typical mid-morning doldrums. You can expect a similar experience if you use the weight loss supplement at lunch.</li>
<li>Appetite and cravings management to help avoid snacking between meals.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Can diet pills help you lose weight without feeling jittery?</strong><br />
You bet. Diet pills can help you lose weight. But, you should know that there is a difference between burning calories and burning fat. And, you can lose weight even faster if you add moderate exercise and avoid eating products made with white flour, milk and milk products, starches and table sugar. And, don’t forget fruit sugar in juices!</p>
<p>Whether you choose to begin your weight loss program for health reasons or appearance, you don’t have to feel like you could jump out of your skin to lose weight. All you really need is your good judgment, <a href="http://nupro.net/store/weightlosssupplements.asp" target="_blank">well-crafted diet pills </a>and a little time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>More and more people are concerned about their weight – and rightfully so.</p>
<p>Being overweight and obesity are about to replace smoking as the #1 killer of Americans. Extra pounds and inches <span style="background-color: #ffff00;">restrict activity, damage health and shorten life; it harms self-esteem and social life</span>.</p>
<p>The United States Center for Disease Control found that being overweight is a significant contributing factor for: Diabetes, High blood pressure, High cholesterol, Asthma, Arthritis, Poor health and yes &#8211; Cancer.</p>
<p>Some years ago, nutritionists devised a theory for weight management. The theory is: the energy value of food can be measured and called calories; caloric burn is the measure of the energy required to support the body; therefore, eating fewer and/or burning more calories than required to support the body will create weight loss.</p>
<p>Dieting or the “eat less – exercise more” school of weight management was born – and indeed, people lose weight. The problem is: <span style="background-color: #ffff00;">when people stop dieting, they regain the lost weight – and, in some cases, gain even more!</span></p>
<p>The theory has a two-fold problem.</p>
<p>First, on the average, Basal Metabolic Rate (resting metabolism) is responsible for 80% to 85% of the overall caloric burn while exercise uses 15% to 20%. <span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Dramatic increases in exercise create modest increases in caloric burn.</span></p>
<p>Second, when faced with insufficient calories to support its needs, the body simply “turns down” basal metabolism to conserve energy. When you eat less food your body simply adapts to fewer calories. <span style="background-color: #ffff00;">Rebound weight gain occurs,</span> after the diet is discontinued, because the caloric intake increases more quickly than lower basal metabolism that was set for consumption of fewer calories.<br />
<img src="http://nupro.net/store/images/menu/mirror.gif" alt="Lose weight" hspace="10" vspace="10" width="133" height="175" align="left" /><br />
A solid weight management program requires moderate exercise, better nutrition and a catalyst to promote basal metabolism. In many cases, that catalyst is a dietary supplement.</p>
<p>Here are examples of <a href="http://nupro.net/store/weightlosssupplements.asp">nutraceutical supplements</a> that support weight loss.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://nupro.net/store/products.asp?cat=46">daytime supplement</a> promotes, in addition to weight loss, helps regulate appetite, metabolism and energy; the <a href="http://nupro.net/store/products.asp?cat=26">night time supplement</a> helps tone and firm the body, promotes stress management and restful sleep. Together, they offer a powerful tool to help you feel good and look great &#8211; around the clock.</p>
<p>Choosing to lose weight is one thing &#8211; making the changes that will keep it off is the smartest, healthiest decision you will ever make.</p>
