How To Reduce Your Sodium Intake

How To Reduce Your Sodium Intake

The average adult consumes approximately 5,000 mg of sodium a day-more than twice the recommended limit of 2,300 mg. Here's how to reduce your intake. Sodium plays an important role in the body. However, most people consume more sodium than they should, which can raise their risk for high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease and stroke. Many people believe they can make a big difference in their sodium intake by not adding salt to their food at the table, but, in fact, 75 percent of the sodium we consume comes from processed foods.

Look At Labels

Reading labels can help you learn how much sodium is in your grocery items.
Use the Percent Daily Value to compare the amount of sodium among brands. Choose foods that have lower values. Watch for foods with lower sodium noted on the label. The U.S. Department of Agriculture defines sodium content as follows:

Salt or Sodium-Free: Less than 5 mg sodium per serving
Very Low Sodium: 35 mg or less sodium per serving
Low Sodium: 140 mg or less per serving
Light In Sodium: 50 percent less sodium compared with the traditional food
Less Sodium or Reduced Sodium: 25 percent less sodium compared with the traditional food

Watch Out When You Eat Out
Many restaurant meals are dangerously high in sodium, with some dishes containing more of the nutrient than you should have in a day.
- Ask for nutrition information information
- Ask that salt, soy sauce and monosodium glutamate not be added to your food
- Take a Fibo Trim 15 min before a meal to reduce the fat intake in your food

Lighten Up at Home
- Use low-sodium recipes.
- Take the saltshaker off the table
- Use fresh or frozen foods
- Don't cook with water that has been softened.
- East fewer processed foods- Limit the amount of prepackaged and processed food you consume.

5 Foods to Fuel Your Workout

Make a Commitment - Make it public - Make it Happen!

Nobody Can give you wiser advice than yourself!

  • With a Smear—Take some celery and fill in the groove with some almond butter or peanut butter. The celery has fiber and calcium and vitamin A and a low 6 calories per medium stalk. The nut butter has protein and fat. The overall calories are low, and this really fills you up without slowing you down, providing great “slow release” energy for a terrific workout.
  • The Double A—Simply put, an apple with almonds. The apple is low in sugar, it contains valuable pectin fiber, which slows the entrance of that sugar into the bloodstream, and it’s a nutritional powerhouse containing vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Combine it with about a dozen almonds, which add some fat and protein, further slowing the entrance of the sugar into the bloodstream for sustained energy, and keeping hunger away.
  • Whey To Go—Whey protein is a great high quality protein that also helps supports the immune system. Studies indicate that whey protein may boost weight loss efforts. Consuming whey as a shake before exercise supports fat burning and may help with gaining or maintaining lean body mass. www.advocare.com/0312767

  • Berry Cheesy—Berries are loaded with phytonutrients, antioxidants, and fiber and are low in sugar. Mix a bowl of berries with a piece of string cheese for the perfect pre-workout snack.

  • TG: Too Good—This stands for turkey and grapes. It’s a perfect match of protein, carbs, and low calories to take the edge off your hunger and prime your exercise pump. Four small slices of deli-packaged turkey contain only 87 calories but give you more than 14 grams of protein.

Creating An Active and Healthy Environment For Our Children

Make A Commitment - Make It Public - Make It Happen!

Creating An Active and Healthy Environment For Our Children

Children learn by our example and they model what we do. Creating an active and healthy environment around our children will promote healthy habits that will last a lifetime.

Create an Active Environment- Make time for the entire family to participate in regular physical activities that everyone enjoys. Try walking, bicycling, rollerblading, or hiking. - Join other neighborhood families in activities like softball, baseball, touch football, soccer, hide-and-seek, etc.- Enroll your child in a recreational, structured activity of his/her choice. This can range from football to dance to gymnastics or martial arts. Let them choose what they enjoy to do. The idea is to get them moving.- Assign active chores around the house like raking leaves, mowing the lawn, taking out the trash, or washing the car.

- Encourage your child to try as many new activities as possible.
- Limit your child’s time on the computer or in front of the TV.
- Enroll your child in a children’s gym or fitness camp.
- Make an effort to keep physical education and recess a part of your child’s school day.

Create a Healthy Eating Environment

- Pack healthy lunches and snacks for your child. At least, you are giving them the option to make a healthy choice.
- Make the time to eat healthy meals together.
- Have children choose healthy recipes for meals.
- Allow your child to prepare the healthy meal with your help.
- Load your refrigerator with nutritious items like fruits, vegetables, bars and low-fat dairy.
- Avoid serving large portions.
- Limit the frequency of eating out.
- Make dinner a family event without distractions like the TV.
- Visit your child’s school to see the snack and meal options in the vending machines and cafeteria. Go to school meetings to promote healthy meal and snack selections.

Taffe Jr. Endowed Chair in Research; fellow, American College of Nutrition; fellow, Academy of Toxicological Sciences; author, more than 300 research and educational publications; doctorate in biochemistry and microbiology, University of Wisconsin.

THE CREATIVE USE OF COFFECCINOWe are pleased to report that the sales of Coffeccino have increased 50% since the release at the end of July 2006 of the improved formula and flavor. The new gourmet flavor, creamy texture and other formula changes have resulted in an excellent and very versatile product.

http://www.advocare.com/0312767

Most consumers use Coffeccino following the directions on the package, blending it with six ounces of hot or cold water. Some individuals add ice to make a frappe.There are a number of other creative ways to use Coffeccino and to meet one's taste and texture expectations. The package directions suggest using milk. One can either replace all or part of the water (hot or cold) with milk, which can range from skim milk to whole milk, depending on the extent to which one wants a creamier, milky taste and texture.Some individuals may desire a stronger coffee flavor, and this can be easily accomplished by replacing all or part of the water with caffeinated or decaffeinated coffee. http://www.advocare.com/0312767

Instant coffee could also be added.For the more adventurous, Coffeccino can be added to Chocolate or Vanilla Meal Replacement Shakes or Muscle Gain. The addition of Coffeccino to the Chocolate Meal Replacement Shake or Chocolate Muscle Gain results in an excellent mocha flavored product. For individuals not concerned with the number of calories, whipping cream can be added to Coffeccino, or Coffeccino can be incorporated into a chocolate or vanilla milk shake. Other creative uses include the addition of Coffeccino to a chocolate cake or brownie mix.Again, Coffeccino is an extremely versatile product, and the number of ways in which it can be used is almost endless.

Be creative, and don't be afraid to experiment. What new, exciting, and delicious recipes involving the use of Coffeccino can you develop? Please let us know

Attracting Attractive People - Mental Vitamines

Attracting Attractive People

Let's begin with something you've heard a few thousand times; we don't attract what we want, and we don't attract what we need; we attract what we are. To attract ‘attractive people’ we must begin that process by becoming an attractive person. If you want a team of strong leaders, you have to become a strong leader. Now, all of this will sound a bit nebulous to people who have spent most of their working lifetime in the corporate world. It will seem like so much ‘positive thinking nonsense’ to those who just don't yet understand the process of ‘taking back control of your life and of your own destiny.’ To See more click here now www.advocare.com/0312767

Even if it's all true - that we attract what we have become and that we attract what we are - where does a person start the process of ‘becoming more?’ How long does whatever that process is really take? To help answer those two fundamental questions, I must go back several years in my own life to that day when I decided to do something with my life; one thing made sense to me - if I kept doing what I had always been doing, I would keep getting the same results. I had gone to a ‘business meeting’ - one similar to one that you attended when you walked into your first AdvoCare meeting. There was something different about the people who were in the room. Those who conducted the meeting said things I hadn't heard in college classes or in the training sessions I had experienced in the Air Force or in my career in aerospace. To See more click here now www.advocare.com/0312767

After attending the first meeting, I attended several others, and each time what was being said and what was being offered made sense; I could begin part-time, I would get help, and I could go as far as my efforts and desire would allow. My future was not in the hands of a ‘boss,’ because I was the boss and I was the employee.

Finally, I joined and thrust myself into a new way of thinking. Some of the leaders saw something in me that I did not see in myself, and they nurtured me along the way; that doesn't mean they did anything directly for me, but they nourished my spirit and taught me to see things in a different way, to feel the emotions of desire I had not experienced, and in a hundred different ways, they taught me to believe in myself and my capacity for changing my life. It was not what I was ‘learning’ that kept me going, it was what my mentors were helping me to believe in. They convinced me that it was not the ‘how to’ that was important, it was the ‘why to’ that would keep me going toward my goals, where others were turning back and giving up. Because of what I was becoming, and of what I had come to fully embrace, and because of my goals and objectives, I moved past the obstacles - I became solution-directed rather than problem oriented. So, to answer the earlier questions of ‘where does one start’ and ‘how long does it take?’ I would answer with the following; we start where we are, regardless of what we have or don't have, and we make a full commitment to learn and to grow. That is going to require change, and change is difficult. I would begin with something simple - something that you may not be doing that you should do, like making your bed in the morning. That discipline will start a process that will lead to taking back active control of your life, because one new discipline sets the stage for a willingness to impose many other disciplines upon ourselves. How long is all that going to take - well, the issue isn't about ‘how long,’ it is about whether you're eager to join the march toward a better life. But if you're willing to get better, you'll become attractive to other people ‘ stronger people, better and more productive people. Try it!
