For those of you, who don’t know what free radicals are, they are byproducts of cellular activity that can cause unwanted damage to other cells, along with adding unwanted stress to your body.As we all know it is really hard to get all vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, etc.. from the food we eat on a daily basis. That is why it is important to implement Antioxidant Supplements into your daily regimen.

Drug Free Alternatives

Jul 3, 2008

I was laughing the first time I heard about herbal mood enhancers, but now that I have tried them, I think differently. I was optimistic the first time I tried Red Dawn Vector pills then about an hour later when it kicked in it felt like I was walking on air with all kinds of energy like when I take ephedra diet pills and I couldn’t stop smiling. Now anytime I am going out or getting together with friends to watch a Ultimate Fighting Championship fight I bring Vector pills by Red Dawn with me. Vector euphoria enhancers are way cheaper than drinking so I am saving money and surprisingly Red Dawn products are 100% legal. The best part is the next day when I talk to my friends and they are hung over I feel great, I am not drowsy or sluggish at all.

Eat your protein people!

Jun 26, 2008

It amazes me how many people do not eat enough protein. People…YOU NEED PROTEIN!!! You need protein to remain healthy, maintain muscle, grow muscle and even to lose weight. If you are not eating enough protein your muscle will just waste away. I could get into scientific terms but I am going to simplify this as I would to a 5 year old.

First, eat more protein. Yes, it is that easy. A rule thumb we go by is that if you are a fit person, you need to eat 1 gram of protein per each pound of body weight to maintain the muscle you already have. So if you weigh 120 pounds, eat 120 grams of protein a day. Quit crying and saying that you can not do that because you can. Quit making excuses. With all the meal replacements and protein powders and protein pills available to you here at www.i-Supplements.com, it is so easy to get your protein intake each day.

If you want to gain more muscle mass the rule of thumb is to eat 1.5 grams to 2 grams of protein per each pound of bodyweight. This gets a bit tougher but can still easily be done with the addition of a high quality protein powder incorporated into your nutrition program. It makes it alot easier to hit your protein goal each day with a protein supplement.

If you are overweight, these rule of thumbs do not quite apply. Please consult your doctor and dietitian to find out what your body fat is so you can find out what your muscle weight is. Then these rule of thumbs will apply to you.

Here is a question I get alot….what if I don’t eat enough protein, what will happen? Plain and simple, your muscle will just waste away. Have you seen people in the gym that are skinny but flabby? It is because their body is fueling itself by feeding on its own muscle instead of body fat. Eat enough protein and guess what? That won’t happen to you. Here are a few protein recommendations to help put you on the right track to that rock hard body!

Throughout the years I have used alot of different topical pain relievers and some worked pretty well. One I use on a pretty regular basis is Sci-Fit Joint Balm which has been very effective for me. I like the fact that SciFit has added ibuprofen into the balm which makes it that more effective and quick acting. Another topical pain reliever that is getting unbelievable feedback at i-Supplements is Myo-Med by Bioforce.

Sun Protection Tips - Sunblocks, Sunscreens & SPF

May 14, 2008

We are now reaching the summer months where the temperatures become much warmer. You are now in your short sleeve shirts, tank tops, shorts, along with your new swimming suit and you are planning on enjoy time outside in the sun. The days of cold weather and winter clothing are coming to an end and boy am I excited about that! I feel like I have been living in a cave for the past 4-5 months.

There are individuals who may have concerns with spending too much time in the sun, but don’t let that effect your summer plans. A little knowledge on how to protect yourself from sunburn, skin cancer and wrinkles will go a long way! Throughout this article you will learn some simple ways to protect your skin from the damaging rays of the sun, allowing you to enjoy some fun in the sun.

How Does Sunburn Develop

People develop sunburn when their skin cells have either been damaged or destroyed. There are different layers of the skin on a persons body, you have outer and under layers. Typically, you are going to have an outer layer of dead skin cells with the under layers directly beneath being live. The live cells are constantly producing dead cells to revivify the surface of your skin. Individuals obtain sunburns when their live cells of the epidermis have been exposed to too much ultraviolet radiation or UVR from the sun. This causes those cells to become injured or dead. When this process occurs your skin becomes flushed due to an increase of blood flow to the harmed area, which will force your white blood cells to work hard to remove the problemed areas. The actual “burning” we see and feel is due from the reaction of the chemicals that have been released from the cells that were damaged.

Who’s Proned to Sunburns

If you are an individual who spends a lot of time in the sun with unprotected skin, you need to reconsider what your doing to your body, regardless of your regular complexion. People with light or pale skin are generally going to be at more risk of obtaining a sunburn vs. a person with darker complexion, however that does not mean that darker people are immuned from the sun, because your not. If you are naturally tan or dark, you will have an SPF of anywhere from 4-8, so you have some natural protection already. There are certain medications such as antibiotics that can increase your sensitivity to the UVR’s of the sun. Young children and babies can develop sunburns very easily due to their thin and sensitive skin. If you have an infant under 6 months, try to keep them out of the sun as much as possible! Children who are 6 months and older be sure to apply sunscreen and keep it away from their eyes, mouth, etc.. Please note the more time in spend in the sun with exposed skin thats not protected, you are increasing your chances of developing skin cancer down the road.

Sunscreen vs Sunblock

Sunscreens and Sunblocks are the two different skin protecting products from the damaging ultraviolet radiation of the sun. Sunscreens protect your skin from chemicals and Sunblocks are a physical protections.

When applying a sunscreen to your skin, it is designed to absorb UVR, which in return reduces the amount of radiation that saturates your skin. If you didn’t know there are two different types of ultraviolet light, which are UVA & UVB. The UVA also known as the aging ray, will weaken the immune system of the cells of your skin. The UVB which is referred to as the burn ray, will cause changes to your DNA. It is known to cause abnormal growths in your skin cells. In the past most of your sunscreens would only protect your skin from the UVB rays, however now there are many products available that will protect you from both UVA & UVB.

When using a sunblock it actually physically protects your skin from the harmful UVA & UVB radiation of the sun. Sunblock Protecting Lotions are now much easier to use, whereas in the past they would a thick, white and greasy creams. Now you can get them in waterproof, sweatproof and non-greasy formulas.

SPF

An SPF is a number that rates sunblocks and sunscreens and is referred to as “Sun Protection Factor” for UVB rays, which is the burn ray. There are a variety of SPF’s on the market today ranging anywhere from a protection of 1 to 60. You may wonder which one will benefit you the most and prevent sunburn. Well lets say you generally get burned being non-protected in about 30 minutes being in the sun. If you got a lotion with an SPF15, you will have protection from the sun for about 450 minutes. What you do is take the 30 minutes that it generally takes for you to get burned times the protection, which in this case is 15: [30×15=450]. The most common protection is the SPF15.

Well, I hope you have a better idea on how to implement Sunscreens & Sunblocks to protect yourself, while enjoying yourself in the sun. These are great tips rather you are doing honey dues around the house, boating on your favorite lake/river, while on vacation or just simply enjoying a drink outside. Keep your skin healthy & looking good by protecting it each time your exposed to the harmful rays of the sun!
