Bodybuilding Program

To have a well built body must be the wish of almost every man in the world. To be the center of attention of many women is a dream of some men. That’s why, now there are so many men that go to fitness center just to have a well built body. Some people even buy bodybuilding equipment for themselves. Not only that, some of them even willing to use steroid injection just to have the body they dreamed of.

There’s nothing wrong in dreaming of having a well built body. Instead, it’s good, because it’s healthy, as long as the method is right. With a muscular body, the chances for you to have a metabolic disease are low. Not only that, you’ll look good in the mirror. But, the reality today, is that many people chose to take an easy way to have a muscular body, such as testosterone injection. That is wrong. Testosterone injection can cause testis atrophy and infertility. It’s better for you to just exercise than to use such drug.

But the problem now is that many people complained that exercise didn’t work for them. They’ve read all the bodybuilding articles, followed what’s written inside, they’ve trained as hard as they can, but their body didn’t change even one bit. Then, they’ve started to asked: “is it really possible for me to have a muscular body?”

I tell you now, it’s POSSIBLE. Nothing’s impossible if you want to try. But then again, the method must be right. You know, my friend was like that himself. He was so desperate to have a muscular body. He went to the gym everyday, trained his ass out, but still there was no sign of even just a tiny muscle in his body. But one day, his luck changed. His body started to changed a little. There was a tiny muscle in his arms. Not long after, his whole body become so well built. I was starting to wonder what kind of bodybuilding article he read, or what kind of training program did he use. I even asked him if he used a testosterone injection or not. When I asked him all that, he just laughed and told me: “it was all diet and exercise”.

At first, I couldn’t believe it. But, when he showed me his bodybuilding program, I started to believe a bit. It’s all make sense. This training program is not like other training program. This program’s main point is not the exercise, but the diet. It said that many people have the wrong concept of training all along. They just prioritize their bodybuilding program on the exercise itself, not the diet. Whereas, it’s the diet that matters. Honestly, at first, I was a bit skeptical about this program. I mean, how come just controlling your diet can give you a muscular body? It seems too easy. But, after I see the result of that program to my friend, I’m starting to believe it.

If you are also want to have a muscular body, and you’ve desperate trying to have one, I can show you where to get this training program. You can get it on The Muscle Maximizer. The price is really low, it’s not even equal to the result you’ll get. So, instead of using drugs, why not try this instead? Trust me, this one really works. If even my friend can have a muscular body, I believe that you can.

Proper Screening for Early Detection of Breast Cancer

by Keith Bussey

Often there are no outward signs of breast cancer that you can see or feel. If there are outward signs, the more common ones include a lump, an area of thickening, or a dimple in the breast. Less common signs include breast swelling and redness or an enlarged underarm lymph node.

However, even if you have one or more of these signs, it still doesn't mean you have breast cancer. Remember that most breast lumps turn out to be benign (not cancerous).

Still, it is extremely important that you SEE YOUR DOCTOR RIGHT AWAY if you are worried that you might have breast cancer. Having your doctor take a look will ease your worry, and if anything is found, you'll be able to take care of it quickly.

Physical examination of the breast is one way to find breast cancer. You should perform a personal breast exam every month on yourself, preferably after you have finished your monthly menstrual cycle. You should also have yearly exams performed by your doctor during your routine physical exam. Lastly, you should have a yearly mammogram starting at the age of 40. You can have a single baseline mammogram between the ages of 35-40. If you have a strong family history of breast cancer however, you will likely need to start the screening process at an earlier age. You should talk to your doctor about what the appropriate age would be for your circumstance. You can read about other screening methods for detecting breast cancer in our Screening & Testing section.

There is a whole world of testing that goes along with taking care of your breasts. And, although medical tests can be nerve-wracking -- especially when it comes to waiting for results -- they are essential in keeping your breasts healthy and getting you proper care if you develop breast cancer.

In this section, you'll learn about the different types of cancer tests, such as mammograms, breast MRI, and biopsy. You can learn about getting your test results and keeping track of your medical records. Also featured are the pros and cons of genetic testing and what those results might mean for you.

Breast cancer and medical tests go hand in hand, whether you have been recently diagnosed, are in the midst of treatment and follow-up, or simply want to increase your odds of early detection.

Most cancer-related tests fall into one or more of the following categories:

• Screening tests: Screening tests (such as yearly mammograms) are given routinely to people who appear to be healthy and are not suspected of having breast cancer. Their purpose is to find breast cancer early, before any symptoms can develop and the cancer usually is easier to treat.

• Diagnostic tests: Diagnostic tests (such as biopsy) are given to people who are suspected of having cancer, either because of symptoms they may be experiencing or a screening test result. These tests are used to determine whether or not cancer is present and, if so, whether or not it has traveled outside the breast. Diagnostic tests also are used to gather more information about the cancer to guide decisions about treatment.

• Monitoring tests: Once breast cancer is diagnosed, many tests are used during and after treatment to monitor how well therapies are working. Monitoring tests also may be used to check for any signs of recurrence.

Type 2 Diabetes - Fruit: The Good And Bad Choices!

By Beverleigh H Piepers

From the day you receive your diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes, all you ever hear about is eating the right foods. Doctors and dietitians always preach a balanced diet. So fruit should be considered okay to eat, right? Well, some are and some aren't. Even the quantity of the good choices have to sometimes be monitored. Unfortunately it is isn't a simple matter to decipher.

Fruits are loaded with vitamins and minerals. Some fruits are even loaded with fiber and antioxidants which offer their own level of protection against certain disease. But fruit is also loaded with sugar. Even though it's in the natural form, sugar is still sugar when it comes to diabetes.

The first rule with eating fruit is to stay away from canned versions. These are packed with added sugar, making them not only a bad choice, but actually dangerous in some instances. If you absolutely have to eat canned fruit, do so in moderation and take a good look at the label before you open the can. Canned fruits that have a low sugar content or light syrup are the best choices. Watch out for terms that manufacturers use to disguise the word "sugar".

The second rule is to go with natural choices, meaning fresh whenever possible. It isn't always feasible to go to the store every time you run out of fruit, but you can still stock up and freeze fruit before it can go bad. Fresh fruit is the most nutritious and hasn't been altered with additives, preservative, or more sugar.

You can also go with dried fruit as long as it hasn't been altered by the manufacturer. Some makers will add sugar or high fructose corn syrup in the dehydration process so that the snack will be more appealing to the taste. Make your selection as natural as possible. Better yet, you can purchase a dehydrator and make your own snacks that have a longer shelf life.

The third rule is to go with frozen fruits. These are not only usually all natural but they keep considerably longer. Plus, they are excellent for smoothies. Adding some protein powder or nuts can give you the protein that you need to offset the sugar content.

The fourth rule is to use the glycemic index (GI). Diabetics often have an innocently distorted view as to which fruits are good for you and which ones have to be portioned. Using the glycemic index takes all of the guesswork out of it. Also, there are many factors which help determine your body's glycemic response to fruit:

• the physical form of fruit, for example a whole apple versus applesauce: mashing foods tends to give them a higher glycemic index or load.
• also, the riper the fruit, the higher its glycemic index.

Can You Get Food Intolerances Later in Life?

By John Carlo

As far as I can remember I never had problems eating just about any food. It may have been the case where I didn't like the way something tasted but I could still eat it, in other words it didn't make me sick. Fast forward twenty years and I hear myself saying things like "I can't eat so and so because I have a food intolerance to it." What does it mean to have food intolerances? How is having food intolerance different from being allergic to certain foods? Why do we become intolerant to certain foods as we age?

In my case it's shell fish. One time when I was much younger I tried a raw clam; it turned my stomach really bad and about a couple of hours later I was vomiting. I think that was the start of my food intolerance. There is some information online regarding stressful situations in connection with a food episode like the one I had. But unfortunately it's not understood why.

Regardless of the reason the intolerance was gradual as other food items were added to the list. In the case of raw clams I could never eat them but I was still able to eat lobster, cocktail shrimp and my favorite stuffed shrimp. First it was the cocktail shrimp; just putting it anywhere next to my mouth would make my stomach turn. Then the lobster, I felt really sorry when I couldn't eat lobster but it wasn't as hard to give up as stuffed shrimp.

So why was I able to eat these things when I was younger but not so much now? First of all let's quickly mention that food intolerances are different from food allergies. For example, food allergies will cause an immediate reaction of your body's immune system. This reaction can cause a life threatening condition called asphyxiation and requires immediate medical attention. Food intolerances on the other hand are normally non life threatening and usually cause problems with your digestive tract.

I for one will not die (as far now) eating shell fish but it will make me sick to my stomach. What are some causes of food intolerances? A quick search online list several causes including lack of certain digestive enzymes as in the case of being lactose intolerant. Other reasons include celiac disease, irritable bowel syndrome, sensitivities to preservatives found in some foods, even a stressful memory of certain food (as may be the case with my food intolerance).

Finally the question; can food intolerances and food allergies develop as we age? The simple answer is yes. Now as to why it happens exactly is not yet known. There are many different examples. For some people they may have had an allergy or intolerance when they were younger, but they grew out of it, only to find later in life they have it again or with another entirely different food.

Although disappointing that we do not yet know why we get food intolerances and allergies as we age at least we can test for them and learn how to live with them. It just goes to show that things are always changing especially within our own bodies and we have to stay alert. If you think you may have an intolerance or allergy see your doctor right away.

Scalp Acne: Causes, Treatment and Prevention

By Fay Villamor

Acne can grow anywhere on the body where there is skin. Since scalp is an extension of the skin, then it is possible to get acne on that area. Scalp acne is just one of the many different kinds of acne. But, unlike facial and body acne, scalp acne is more discreet because it is covered by several strands of hair. However, it can still be very troublesome. Fortunately, there are several ways to deal with it.

The causes of acne are similar to those that develop on other areas of the body. Excessive production of oil or sebum is still the main culprit. However, there are also other factors that trigger this skin problem. This includes poor hygiene, level of stress, inadequate nourishment, hormonal changes, seasonal changes, food allergies and heredity. Also, infection from certain micro-organisms can induce scalp acne.

Scalp acne is not as embarrassing as facial acne. But, there is still irritation to trouble with. Acne on the scalp can come in small and itchy bumps or pustules. They usually appear on the front hairline, as well as on the back part of the head near the neck. The bumps can become crusted and sore due to irritation from hair products, and from brushing or combing. Scalp acne could also be very painful because of the inflammation.

Like many other types of acne, scalp acne is best dealt with prevention methods rather than acne products and medications. In fact, it is way easier to prevent any kind of condition than to actually treat it. One of the most helpful ways to deal with this skin problem is to discontinue the use of any hair styling products that are oil-based since they are known to trigger acne breakouts on scalp.

Also, maintaining a clean scalp is a must. However, one must not overdo it to prevent drying of the skin on the scalp. It is wise to use hair shampoos and conditioners that are specially formulated for sensitive scalps. The hair should be properly washed at all times to remove dirt and dust that could possibly build-up along with oil or sebum on scalp. Styling products should not be left on the hair overnight. Shampoo and hair conditioners should be thoroughly rinsed to prevent residues.

Since it is covered with hair, acne on the scalp is treated in a different, but easy way. The most popular treatment for scalp acne is the use of anti-dandruff shampoos. These shampoos contain zinc that has been shown to be very effective for eliminating acne. However, scalp acne can worsen into a condition called scalp folliculitis. For this condition, it is best to seek medical advice from expert dermatologist. They could prescribe the right treatment for this skin problem.

Often, treatment for scalp acne goes hand in hand with forehead acne treatment. If you want to get rid of them, then you should start by avoiding its triggering factors! Keep your scalp and face clean at all times!

Excessive Exercise and Your Fertility

Did you know that an excessive exercise can affect your fertility? Some studies have proved that an excessive exercise can reduced the testosterone concentration in your body. And as we all know, testosterone is the kind of hormone that helps your testis to produce sperm cells. Now, you must be wondering how that can happen.

Testosterone is classified as a steroid hormone. There are many hormones that classified as steroid hormones, such as estrogen, testosterone, androgen, etc. These hormones (testosterone, estrogen and androgen) responsible for our secondary sex signs. Estrogen is a hormone that responsible for woman’s secondary sex sign, while testosterone responsible for man’s secondary sex sign. Androgen is a steroid hormone that will later be turned to testosterone or estrogen.

These hormones, especially estrogen, need fat cells in their making. That’s why, according to some studies, women in their menopausal years are more susceptible to cardiac disease than those in their reproductive years. Why??? It’s because the fat in the body of those in their reproductive years will be used to make estrogen. And it’s not just any fat; it’s the LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein) which we all know as the bad fat that will be used to form an estrogen. In menopausal women, estrogen concentration will decrease rapidly. That’s why their LDL will just circulate in their blood stream and can create an atherosclerosis, which will lead to cardiac disease.

In men with some excessive exercise, the testosterone concentration will decrease, because the fat will be turned to estrogen instead of testosterone, and we all knew that we need testosterone to produce sperm cell that will then fused with the ovum to form a zygote that will later be a baby. So, from now on, if you want to have a muscled body, don’t just do some exercise, but also control your diet. Because as you now know, an excessive exercise can make you infertile.

How to Lose Weight without Torturing Yourself

I guess most people would agree if I said Obesity is our enemy. Not only obesity could bring many diseases such as hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, heart disease, etc, it could also make ourselves looked ugly in the mirror.

I was an obese man. My weight was 100 Kg, and my waist was 120 cm. I often had shortness of breath, my chest hurt even when I walked for just 10 meters, and my blood pressure was 180/100 mmHg. Not only that, I didn’t want to look myself in the mirror, because I hated my own reflection. I was really fat. It was like I despised myself. I’ve tried everything in order to lose some fat, from exercise to only eat 1 meal per day. Everyone told me that I would just torturing myself with that kind of diet program, but I didn’t care. Well, it worked, but not for long. I lost 10 kg. But when I stop my diet program, my weight increased 2 times more than what I’ve lost. It was a horror (for me anyway).

I was really frustrated. Then, I decided to start my own diet program again. I repeated my old program, but this time I didn’t eat any carbohydrate at all. I didn’t eat bread, potato, rice, anything with carbohydrate in it. I hope I can lose some fat with this new kind of torture. This time, it worked for about 3 months, and then the same thing happened again. Only this time, it’s not 2 times, but 4 times more than what I’ve lost.

After that, I was really frustrated. I even started to think about liposuction. But, everyone around me said that liposuction couldn’t cure my diseases. Until one day, I discovered an easy way to lose my weight. My friend told me about The Diet Solution Program that could help me burn my fat in short time, without I had to reduce my eating portion. At first, I was skeptical. But, I thought that there was no harm in it, if I watched it. After I watched it, and followed the direction in that The Diet Solution Program, my weight started to decreased. In just half month, I lost 3.5 kg. In 2 months, I lost 6 kg. Amazing! At first, I was skeptical. But, I thought that there was no harm in it, if I watched it. After I watched it, and followed the direction in The Diet Solution Program, my weight started to decreased. In just half month, I lost 3.5 kg (7 lb and 11.45 oz). In 2 months, I lost 6 kg (13 lb and 3.64 oz), without intensive exercise.  Amazing! Now, it’s been 6 months since I started my Diet Solution Program, and my weight keeps decreasing and never increased again. I’m so relieved that I could find this program. I think this program can help not just me, but everyone who has the same problem as I had.  You can find this video on this Diet Solution Program website.

But, in order to get the full tips on how to lose some weight, you must pay some money. It’s not expensive. For me, there’s no meaning on losing some money if I can lose some weight.
