“Scientists are becoming convinced that failure to attend to the proper care and feeding of our bodies doesn’t just affect us, it affects our genes—and that means it may affect our offspring…The way people live and their lifestyles no longer just affects them, but may have a knockoff effect for their children and grandchildren.” Dr. Cate Shanahan

Hey everyone this article is written by John Beradi one of the best nutritionist floating around… Regarding intermittent fasting (IF) like the article say’s it isn’t for everyone BUT… when I completed it doing my 30 Days 30 Changes I survived & did see some noticeable results. Personally I did the 24 hour fast consuming just chlorophyll & apple cider vinegar…. I love my food so until 11am I was hurting so bad… between 11am and 12:30pm I noticed a considerable change in the way I felt clarity of thought & general well being… The 12:30pm onwards period I found fine. Read the article & really research it if you wish to try John has some great articles on his site.

Cellulite…Oh No!

Cellulite finally explained….

The best way to visualise the understanding of cellulite is to quickly grab a pencil and paper. Draw 3 lines – the outer line is your outer epidermis (line 1). The line below this is called the inner dermis (line 2). (Line 3) Lies in the subcutaneous layer, which attaches the skin to the underlying tissues. This layer consists of loose connective tissue and a lot of adipose (fat) tissue (this gets tested with skinfolds). On the other hand, the dermis consists of dense connective tissue composed mainly of collagen fibres (responsible for the mechanical strength of skin). Picture it like this; the epidermis is like a pair of pantihose (only very small things can pass thru it) and the dermis is like fishnets. Genetically though some people have fishnets (dermis – connective tissue) that have larger openings and some people have smaller openings.

People who display cellulite are those that have a dermis layer that is not as dense. Add to this excess fat at the subcutaneous layer and the fat pushes through the dermis layer like playdough through a fishnet. There’s actually two major components that create cellulite – genetics (sorry) and large deposits of fat. Now why don’t men appear to suffer so much with cellulite? When there are large fat stores there’s the presence and activity of the fat-promoting enzyme lipoprotein lipase. Women tend to have a higher percent of this activity in the thighs and hips in preparation for pregnancy and lactation. Thus, a woman who genetically has a dermis layer that is less dense is more likely to have cellulite than a man who is carrying the same ratio of lean tissue to fat %.

What is the solution?

• Decrease the amount of body fat on your body (less fat, less playdough to be pushed through the dermis)

• Tone up with resistance training

Assessing Lifestyle – Lifestyle Mop Up

Ryan — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 20:51:50 +0000

Bombarded on facebook… Sorry been away catching up. I have a point that I think the lifestyle mop up program truly identify’s it is this…Often we assess lifestyle on the wrong basis… Someone may have a body shape you are completely envious of, “she looks fantastic”… But.. Does she relax?; Does she eat well? Or is she running on just lucky genetics, stress or both. Maybe she’s just skinny fat. Skinny fat??? Her shape in general looks fine; you look at her a little closer maybe some skinfolds and identify although she looks like 18% body fat she comes up as 32%. How is that? No weight training (resistance training including body weight exercises) will equate to a lack of lean tissue your metabolic enabler. What this also leads to is; osteoporosis; and a myriad of other health conditions. Also who wants a girl that can’t help you move house anyway! “I will just carry the laundry items”. … Gee “Thanks”.

Longevity

Ryan — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 23:50:35 +0000

‎”We reluctantly accept as fact the normal human life span consists of growing up to reach a physical peak in early 20′s, followed by an inevitable steady decline caused by the ageing process. Under this fault assumption, we allow ourselves to gain an average of 1.5 pounds of fat per year (0.68kg’s) starting at age 25 and continuing through age 55 (we also lose half a pound 0.23kg’s of muscle per year, resulting in adding a pound a year in the wrong places as we age). Our last decade or two (until we reach the average life span of about 78 years) is usually characterised by inactivity, excess body fat, assorted medical conditions, and a host of prescription drugs to alleviate the pain and symptoms of chronic disease……. p10 “The primal blue print”.
