Sleep, Metabolism and Obesity

2012 by Sean Wells

Scientists have conducted specific studies of humans and animals and discovered that sleep plays a critical role in memory and learning, but also immune function and basic metabolism. It seems that sleep plays a role not only in how energetic we feel, but also the way in which we generate energy.

To prevent or limit excessive weight gain—another metabolic byproduct—a recent animal study provides new insights into the importance of circadian rhythms and their interaction with normal metabolism. Researchers studied two groups of mice with both these rhythms and the genes responsible in mind.

One group was genetically normal, while the other group lacked what is known as the Rev-Erb alpha gene, responsible for biological circadian rhythms. In the mice lacking the Rev-Erb alpha gene, research determined that they became obese and hyperglycemic. This was the case even if they ate the same quantity of food at the same time as normal mice.

Further investigation indicated that the major difference between the two groups was in the way Rev-Erb alpha-deficient mice metabolized the food they ate. The Rev-Erb alpha deficient mice metabolically created much more fat than the normal mice—this shift occurred specifically during the feeding period. Additionally, the Rev-Erb-alpha deficient mice were observed to rely less on carbohydrate stores for fuel when they were at rest. This suggests that when abiding by “normal” hours of sleep, the body is more inclined to indiscriminately burn calories rather than store them away.

“It is now clear that impairment of daily rhythms such as shift-work, exposure to artificial lighting, or jet-lag has multiple adverse effects on human health, every effort should be made to maintain or restore normal temporal organization and to avoid potentially disruptive behaviors such as nocturnal meals or light exposure at night”, said Etienne Challet, Ph.D., a contributing researcher.

From a personal point of view, it seems obvious that sleep is beneficial. We all know from experience that when going without sleep, consequences ensue, and that getting a good night’s sleep will often make us feel ready to take on the world. The benefits, apparently, extend well beyond that feeling—proper sleep yields demonstrable benefits for health and weight management.

Leptin Causing Your Weight Loss Woes?

Are you someone who diets and works out, but doesn’t see the results you’re wanting? If you diet, do you feel like you are always hungry?
If this sounds familiar, then you may be dealing with leptin sensitivity.
What is Leptin Sensitivity and, for that matter, Leptin?

Let’s start with leptin, a protein that’s produced by the body’s fast cells. While a variety of signals control how much we eat, the whole process begins when the brain detects your leptin levels. If the levels are normal, it shuts off the signal to store extra calories as fat. The body no longer feels like eating because the brain has told the body to stop eating.
The problem is, most overweight people have excessively high leptin levels due to leptin resistance, a process similar to the concept of insulin resistance. Essentially, the brain becomes desensitized, which makes it difficult for the body send the brain signals. This can result in food cravings and weight gain. The brain believes the body is in a famished state and tells it to continue to store fat. This sensitivity to leptin can cause the brain to believe it is in a constant state of starvation. Leptin resistance is essentially the idea that your body is obese but your brain is starving, hence the reasons people continue overeating.
How Do You Control Leptin?
Research has found that lowering leptin levels in overweight people can “reboot” your body and help with weight loss. Here are a couple of ways that you can get your body back working for you:
Suppress the appetite.
You need to eat, but not everything.
Inhibit carbs from being absorbed.
While carbohydrates in fruit and vegetables are good for you, others can cause your blood sugar to soar and disrupt your hormone balance. Eating too much of them can make leptin ineffective as an appetite suppressant.
Stop carbs from being converted to fat.
We don’t want excess carbohydrates being converted into fat. Supplements that contain natural ingredients such as White Kidney Bean Extract have been shown to help stop carbs from eventually being converted into fat.
You’ve given your body the help it needs to control leptin, now continue to work: eat a healthy, balanced diet and exercise regularly. You’ll get that beach body in no time!

TLS CORE Fat & Carb Inhibitor was created to deal specifically with the weight management issues related to leptin sensitivity in three specific ways.  
1. It may help with appetite suppression with the help of LeptiCore®, a clinically-proven, patent -pending, all-natural ingredient designed specifically to promote healthy weight management.*
2.  Inhibits the amount of starchy carbohydrates being absorbed by the body. These carbohydrates can elevate blood sugar levels, increasing insulin. This can cause the body to store additional fat, triggering leptin, causing you to eat and over-consume.
3.  Helps to stop the body from converting excess carbohydrates into fat.*

Nutrition and Cancer Prevention

By Dr. Deedra Mason
Today, nutrition to prevent and treat disease had gained greater credibility among physicians as the scientific research has shown the real benefits of proper diet and quality nutritional supplementation. A quick Google search for “nutrition and cancer prevention” yields over 6.8 million results. Such is the intense interest from research scientists, physicians and the general public.
According to the American Institute for Cancer Research, no single food or food component can protect against cancer by itself. But strong evidence does show that a diet filled with a variety of plant foods—such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains and beans—can help lower the risk for many cancers.
A healthy diet is the always the first step and the foundation of any wellness program. But when food is not enough, nutritional supplements have the potential to provide nutrients in sufficient quantities. Below are four key nutrients which have displayed anti-cancer properties in clinical settings, and, in consultation with a health professional, could be incorporated effectively into an overall wellness program.
Curcumin. Curcumin has been used for centuries safely in the care of the liver, pelvic stasis and cancer. Several studies point to curcumin as an inhibitor of cancer at the mitotic level, interfering with Initiation, Promotion and Progression stages. This fairly unique property is most likely due to curcumin’s antioxidant, free-radical scavenging effects and ability to increase levels of glutathione—the body’s own endogenous antioxidant, which has been shown to aid in the reductions of potentially mutagenic and carcinogenic pollutants of body systems.
In recent years the clinical community has also decided to directly study certain natural anti-inflammatories such as curcumin and resveratrol in comparison with over-the counter NSAIDS in their ability to inhibit tumor cell growth. The study concluded that resveratrol and curcumin were among the most potent anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative agents, while aspirin and ibuprofen were (surprisingly) among the least potent.



nutraMetrix Curcumin Extreme with BCM-95® has superior bioavailability and absorption to other curcumin products on the market. Curcumin Extreme promotes liver detoxification, promotes healthy glutathione levels and normal cellular regeneration http://bit.ly/TweHrB





Vitamin C. Some of the benefits of vitamin C in cancer care are extrapolation based on the observation that those who consume diets rich in fruits and vegetables have a lower incidence of cancer. However, a large number of objective clinical studies over the last 60 years have also investigated a more direct role of Vitamin C in cancer prevention.
Vitamin C is a fantastic donator of its electrons or double bonds and extenuates the activity in both extracellular and intracellular metabolism to limit toxic metabolites and limit free radical accumulation, which in turn may lead to DNA mutation. The most surprising part of vitamin Cs benefits is in how little vitamin C needs to be consumed to support the body at a basic level. As little a 110 mg per day has been shown to be protective, and higher intakes of ascorbic acid have been shown to be beneficial in potential prevention of oral, stomach and colorectal cancers.

Isotonix Vitamin C provides superior delivery of the nutrients your body needs in the most cost effective way. According to researchers at the University of Leeds, Guy’s Hospital in London, Baylor University and the Mayo Clinic, among others, have shown that not only do isotonic solutions leave the stomach faster, but also that the osmotic pressure of the stomach contents is one of the controlling mechanisms for the rate at which the stomach empties, leading to more efficient assimilation by all of the body’s systems. The liquid composition of Isotonix Vitamin C Formula places the vitamins and minerals in an optimal position for absorption and superior delivery to the body’s systems. http://bit.ly/UThbxu

Omega-3 Fatty Acids. Omega-3 Fatty Acids are a significant contributor to overall cellular health. Recent reviews and health trials see a benefit to Omega-3 fatty acids in skin cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, lung, breast and even the prevention of treatment related cachexia, or muscle-wasting. In addition, pairing Omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids with Vitamin D has additive and synergistic effects in cancer treatment .
Some of these benefits are because Omega 3s exert anti-inflammatory and anti-neoplastic effects. By altering membrane fluidity at the cellular level, Omega 3s can help limit oxidative stress and modify signal transduction. One minor caution is that peroxidation of Omega 3s can also occur, and therefore all Omega 3 supplementation in therapy is best accompanied by concurrent antioxidant application; Vitamin E and Vitamin C are the best co-actors with Omega 3s.

nutraMetrix Heart Health Essential Omega III Fish Oil with Vitamin E provides the three grams of EPA† (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA† (docosahexaenoic acid) that studies reveal is the most effective amount to promote overall cardiovascular health. http://bit.ly/PsUDGl






Vitamin D. A discussion about the benefits of nutritional interventions in cancer risk would not be complete without a discussion of Vitamin Ds role. Classically it is reported in the literature that Vitamin D status is inversely associated with risk of cancer; this is true in almost all of the literature on colorectal cancer. The overall summary of meta-analyses indicates that vitamin D levels, through dietary intake and serum levels of 25(OH)D, are associated with a decreased risk of cancer, including colorectal cancer, adenoma, advanced adenoma and recurrent adenoma. Some studies suggest that this relationship is made even stronger when Vitamin D3 is taken along with higher consumption of calcium, through both dietary and supplemental choices.


nutraMetrix Isotonix Vitamin D with K2 contains vitamin D3, the metabolically active form of vitamin D, along with vitamin K2, a form of vitamin K which supports vascular health and calcium utilization http://bit.ly/Y1HEPN







Well-practiced nutrition has made considerable progress since the earlier days of medicine, when the connection between food and disease was perceived as weak or even nonexistent by medical experts. In modern times, and in legitimate laboratory studies, many individual nutrients, vitamins and phytochemicals have been shown to demonstrate anti-cancer potential. Hopefully a day will come when a new definition of what constitutes a healthy diet, combined with advances in the knowledge of what truly causes cancer, will make treatment virtually unnecessary, and prevention the new paradigm

Surviving the Holiday Feasts

by Dr. Robert Blair

The holiday season is rapidly approaching. In addition to the wonderful visits with friends and family that often occur during the holidays, many of us spend a lot of time eating lots of food. Not only do we have our traditional holiday feasts with friends and family, but we also find ourselves taking part in holiday office parties and other events where food is present in abundance. Surviving these holiday feasts can be a challenge for many of us. However, there are things we can do to survive the holidays without feeling like we ate a bowling ball:

• Don’t go to a party hungry. Going to a holiday party hungry will almost always lead to leaving you feeling bloated and uncomfortable. According to WebMD, this can further lead to a slower digestion process, upset stomach, and heartburn. Instead of going to a holiday party hungry, try eating a healthy snack shortly before leaving home. This will help regulate your hunger and help you avoid over-eating.
• Watch your portion sizes. At holiday parties, people often want to try all the foods offered. While there is nothing wrong with this, many tend to forget that true portion sizes are much smaller than they think. By eating smaller portions of each food item, it’s easy to sample each type of food with less chance of over-eating and causing digestive discomfort.
• Limit high fat foods. Many holiday foods are high in dietary fat. Not only is fat high in calories, but it can slow down digestion and possibly trigger heartburn. If you choose to consume high fat foods, make sure to consume small portions.
• Get some exercise. Rather than sitting down on that comfortable recliner after a large holiday meal, get some exercise. Taking even a leisurely walk around the neighborhood can help ward off that uncomfortable bloated feeling. Pick up the pace to a brisk walk if you want to burn off some of those extra calories.
• Eat slowly. Eating slowly gives the brain time to send “I’m full” messages to your stomach. Waiting for this cue helps to prevent the consequences of over-eating.

In addition to these tips, a number of dietary supplements can help support a healthy digestive system during the holidays, specifically fiber, probiotics, digestive enzymes, and aloe.

• Dietary Fiber. Most people do not consume the amount of fiber needed each day (20 – 35 grams per day for most adults). Dietary fiber has numerous benefits including helping to maintain normal digestive tract health and movement. Dietary fiber also helps maintain the beneficial bacteria in our digestive tracts.
• Probiotics. Speaking of beneficial bacteria, probiotic supplements are a great way to support a healthy digestive system. Maintaining optimal bacterial balance is important to maintaining optimal digestive health; therefore, choosing a probiotic supplement that contains a variety of bacterial strains makes it easier to obtain the most comprehensive benefit. Some of the most beneficial strains include Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei, Bifidobacterium bifidum, and Bifidobacterium breve.
• Digestive Enzymes. Digestive enzymes are an essential element of healthy and complete digestion, beginning with enzymes released by our salivary glands as we chew. Eating too rapidly can lead to inefficient digestion, as some of our digestive enzymes are not given time to complete their job properly. Additionally, the body’s ability to make certain enzymes declines as we age. Supplementing with digestive enzymes can promote healthy digestion and break down foods that are typically hard to digest. A good digestive enzyme supplement will contain at least three types of enzymes: proteases to digest proteins, amylases to digest carbohydrates, and lipases to digest fats. Other beneficial digestive enzymes to consider include lactase (digests lactose) and cellulase (breaks down cellulose, normally indigestible to people).
• Aloe vera. Aloe vera promotes healthy digestion by providing natural plant enzymes that break down food. These enzymes include amylase (starch), cellulase (cellulose), lipase (lipids), and alkaline phosphatase (proteins). Aloe supplementation also helps to support a healthy gastrointestinal pH, normal composition of intestinal flora, and helps to promote an overall healthy digestive process. Consumption of aloe vera can promote bowel regularity and intestinal comfort after eating.

Combining these dietary supplements with healthy eating habits will definitely help you—and your stomach—ease through the holiday feasts.

Form Your Health Foundation

by Crystal Shelton

People often wonder which supplements are best to take and what ingredients will work best for them. While most have individual needs that can be targeted, there are certain components that everyone should use to build their foundation for optimal health. Specifically, everyone should have the following in their daily regimen: a multivitamin, antioxidants, calcium and B vitamins.

Multivitamin: The most critical component of creating a wellness foundation regimen is a multivitamin. Multivitamins are intended to be taken in an effort to supplement the diet with vitamins and minerals that are not being acquired through food. It is well known people are not eating well-balanced meals and acquiring the necessary nutrients, therefore it’s easily stated that multivitamins qualify as one of the most important dietary supplements to be taken. Vitamins and minerals are the foundation of health and nutrition and are necessary for the body to carry out normal functions.

nutraMetrix® Isotonix® Multivitamin is an isotonic-capable food supplement containing 100 percent or more of the daily value of essential vitamins and minerals. There are wide varieties of vitamin and mineral supplements on the market today. Only Isotonix Multivitamin contains a unique blend of complementary vitamins and minerals with the superior delivery of Isotonix
http://bit.ly/100Fs9D




It’s very important to choose a multivitamin which provides all of the essential vitamins and minerals which are included at amounts that provide 100% of the recommended daily values. These nutrients play a variety of roles in supporting a healthy immune and cardiovascular system, promoting strong bones and skin health, maintaining normal metabolic functioning and healthy tissue growth and repair among many other benefits.
To name a few specifics, vitamin C is a multi-faceted nutrient primarily known for its antioxidant benefits and strong role in immune health. It has also been shown to promote normal levels of cholesterol as well as normal platelet activity. A deficiency in vitamin C has been associated with fatigue and vitamin C is critical in the proper absorption of iron – another nutrient critical for optimal health.
Vitamin D is another nutrient that should be a part of any multivitamin. Americans are deficient in vitamin D and this deficiency can lead to a number of health concerns in bone health and immune function. In addition to those general benefits, research also reports that women may be able to reduce their risk of heart attack by taking a multivitamin daily. Ideally, multivitamins should be delivered in a way where little nutritive value is lost, making the absorption of nutrients highly efficient while delivering maximum results.

Antioxidants: Antioxidants are necessary components in building the foundation for health as every single person is exposed to free radical damage and oxidative stress. These damaging free radicals are linked to numerous health conditions ranging from cardiovascular health to the aging process itself. In trying to combat free radicals, the most important ingredients to consume are proven and researched antioxidants.

Pycnogenol® is the most clinically researched pine bark extract available. It has been shown in a number of studies to possess a very powerful antioxidant effect and it has also been proven to produce positive results related to cardiovascular health as well as inflammation. In general, oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs) are the most powerful natural free radical neutralizers. Other bioflavonoid extracts such as bilberry, grape seed, red wine and citrus bioflavonoids fall into this category.

nutraMetrix Isotonix OPC-3® is an isotonic-capable food supplement that is made from a combination of bilberry, grape seed, red wine and pine bark extracts, and citrus extract bioflavonoids, all found to be powerful antioxidants.  Studies have shown OPCs to be up to 20 times more powerful than vitamin C and 50 times more powerful than vitamin E in neutralizing free radicals. nutraMetrix Isotonix OPC-3 contains the only isotonic form of Pycnogenol® in the world.
http://bit.ly/Wa2bit

In choosing ingredients to provide optimal antioxidant support, an array of these potent antioxidants would be the most effective. Since free radicals are so heavily associated with many diseases and conditions, combatting those would promote far reaching effects in the areas of inflammation, cardiovascular health, joint health, cellular health, among others.

Calcium: Calcium is one of those ingredients easily found in a multivitamin, but the effects are so far-reaching and typically the dose necessary is more than found in multivitamins, so additional supplementation is warranted. As an essential mineral, calcium is a vital nutrient with a multitude of roles for health. Calcium is a primary component of bones, making it a very critical nutrient for everyone. The body uses calcium to maintain strong bones and teeth, where it is primarily stored. In addition to supporting bone structure and hardness, calcium is also necessary for muscular and nervous system function. It also plays a role in the regulation of hormones and enzyme production that affects almost every function in the human body.


nutraMetrix Isotonix Calcium Complete provides the body with an optimal blend of calcium, vitamin D3, magnesium, vitamin C and boron in an efficient isotonic solution that is readily absorbed by the body. Isotonix dietary supplements are a replica of the body's own fluids, such as tears, plasma and breast milk. All fluids in the human body have a certain concentration, which is called the osmotic pressure. The body's common osmotic pressure, which is isotonic, allows a consistent maintenance of all body tissues. In order for a substance to be used in the body's metabolism, it must be changed to the isotonic state.
http://bit.ly/OuITmo


Only about 500 mg of calcium can be absorbed by the body at once, so it’s important to not ingest more than that at once as it will be wasted. Because vitamin D and magnesium are necessary to aid in the absorption and use of calcium, a supplement which contains these with calcium is preferred.

B Vitamins: Another component of establishing your foundation for health involves a complete B-complex formulation. B vitamins are necessary components for numerous metabolic processes and they support hundreds of biochemical reactions in the body. Specifically, folic acid, vitamins B6 and B12 help lower homocysteine levels in the blood, leading to a direct, positive effect on heart health. Folic acid and B12 also work together in promoting healthy red blood cell formation.

nutraMetrix Isotonix Activated B-Complex delivers metabolically active forms of several vitamins and minerals in isotonic form, ensuring that your body receives and uses vital nutrients quickly and efficiently.   By utilizing both the activated form of these vitamins, as well as the superior Isotonix delivery system, nutraMetrix Isotonix Activated B-Complex supports your body’s absorption and immediate use of beneficial ingredients.
http://bit.ly/Rj8eCo




Additionally, each of the B vitamins work by a number of different mechanisms to help increase energy, improve mood and cognition and protect telomeres, which help with long-term health. Traditional forms of B vitamins must be converted into usable forms once ingested. By using forms such as methylcobalamin, folinic acid or pyridoxal 5’ phosphate, also referred to as the metabolically “activated” forms, once can be sure optimal utilization is occurring and the effectiveness of these vitamins are enhanced.
While most everyone’s dietary supplementation needs are unique, there are certain ingredients that provide a multitude of benefits and help establish the basic foundation for optimal health!

Multivitamins and Cardiovascular Health for Women

by Crystal Shelton

Cardiovascular disease has many risk factors, some of which can be controlled–such as cigarette smoking–and others which cannot, such as aging or a family history of cardiovascular disease. A new study has found there may be something additional in your control to help reduce your risk of heart attack.
Multivitamins are intended to be taken in an effort to supplement the diet with vitamins and minerals that are not being acquired through food. It is well known that many people are not eating well-balanced meals and acquiring the necessary nutrients, therefore it’s easily understood that multivitamins qualify as one of the most important dietary supplements to be taken.
Vitamins and minerals are the foundation of health and nutrition and are necessary for the body to carry out normal functions. Among the numerous general benefits, a new study reports that women may be able to reduce their risk of heart attack by taking a multivitamin daily.
A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition included over 30,000 women with no history of cardiovascular disease and about 2,200 women with a history of cardiovascular disease. Both sets of women, aged between 49-83 years old, were asked to complete a questionnaire which asked questions regarding their diet, lifestyle and use of dietary supplements.
After a 10 year follow-up with the women, heart attacks were reported in 269 cases in the group with a history of heart disease, and in 932 cases in the group with no history of heart disease. In this second group, these reports revealed an association of a 27% reduced risk of heart attack in women that took a multivitamin compared to those that did not.
Additionally, in this same group of women, those that took a multivitamin along with other supplements had a 30% reduced risk of heart attack. There was an even stronger link of reduced risk in those women who had taken a multivitamin for five years or longer.
Unfortunately, in the group of women with a confirmed history of cardiovascular disease, taking a multivitamin did not appear to reduce the risk for heart attack. This study strongly suggests, however, that women with no history of heart disease may be able to reduce their risk of heart attack substantially by taking a daily multivitamin.

nutraMetrix Isotonix Multivitamin supplements dietary deficiencies and helps maintain normal metabolic functioning.   There are wide varieties of vitamin and mineral supplements on the market today. Only Isotonix Multivitamin contains a unique blend of complementary vitamins and minerals with the superior delivery of Isotonix.  http://bit.ly/100Fs9D
