An Unexpected Problem With Monsanto’s Roundup

There’s another problem with Monsanto’s herbicide Roundup besides it’s encouraging the growth of super weeds, and the need for ever greater applications of insecticide. The unexpected issue is radioactivity.

It turns out that phosphate ore is mined to produce phosphorus which is used to make glyphosate, the main ingredient in Roundup.

To get the phosphorus, Monsanto maintains the only plant in the US that refines the phosphate ore. At the end of the process you are left with molten slag which contains radioactive uranium and radium. Oh, by the way, Monsanto produces over 200 million pounds of the stuff every year. crazy for the environment!
 

Side Effect From Taking Beta-Blocker Drugs – Weight Gain

A study by Australian researchers published in the International Journal of Obesity found that adults on beta-blockers weighed more and had larger waistlines.

The study looked at 11,400 adults with high blood pressure and/or diabetes. The researchers also found that the participants in the study burned fewer calories and fat after a meal.

The patients on beta-blockers also reported lower levels of physical activity. The researchers actually hypothesized that the widespread use of beta-blockers may be fueling the obesity epidemic.

The only group that will actually benefit from statins and beta-blockers are people who have a genetic defect called familial hypercholesterolemia.

So…if your doc wants to you take beta-blockers, make sure you’ve got that genetic defect before you agree to take beta-blockers; otherwise, experiment with the diet, exercise and alternative therapies route first.
 

Ways To Treat Back Pain

Back pain is all around us. It’s the most common type of pain and 30% of women and 26% of men will be struck by it during any given year.

Since more and more of us are sitting for longer and longer periods of time, this figure will probably continue to rise.

Sitting actually puts more pressure on the back than when you walk or even just stand.

There are a number of things you can do about it.

1. Get up every hour and take a short stretch break.
2. Lose weight if you are overweight.
3. Don’t overdo exercising on the weekend.
4. See a chiropractor or acupuncturist.
5. Take 2000 mg of Vitamin C every day.
6. Get a standing desk.
7. Do the Shiatsu (a Japanese finger pressure technique) lower back pain treatment.

Add In Watching TV And Computer Time For A Negative Result

I just discussed the impact of too much sitting. Now add time spent in front of a TV, computer or video game and you’re really affecting your cardiovascular health.

Researchers from the United Kingdom followed 4,500 Scottish men and women, looking at the impact of screen time. They found that people who spent at least two hours of leisure time in front of a TV or computer were more than twice as likely to have a heart attack or other cardiac event.

Those who spent four or more hours in front of the screen were 50% more likely to die.

For these screen people, their weight was higher, their cholesterol, C-reactive protein and other metabolic risk factors were all higher.

Interestingly, there were no negative links with activities such as reading, playing cards or board games.
 

Cheer Yourself Up The Fast Way – Inhale

The fastest way to cheer yourself up when you are feeling down is to sniff something pleasant.

Charles Wysocki, PhD, a behavioral neuro-scientist from Mondell Chemical Senses Center found that sniffing works faster to change your mood than looking at a treasured souvenir or hearing a favorite song.

He compared the olfactory system to an interstate and our visual and auditory system to country roads. This means your sense of smell will affect your brain faster.

And the cheeriest scent may be citrus since it boosts the release of norepinephrine, a mood-regulating hormone.

So…cut that lemon or orange and inhale.

To Stretch Or Not To Stretch Before You Exercise

The wisdom has been to stretch before you run so that you reduce injuries caused by not being warmed up.

A recent study reported by George Washington University is challenging that wisdom. They divided runners into two groups. One stretched before running and the other didn’t.

The researchers found that injury rate was the same for both groups, about 16%.

However, they did find that runners who were regular stretchers before being put into the non-stretch group had a 40% higher chance of injury.

For the non-stretchers who were part of the stretching group, their risk of an injury went up 22%.

What this means to me is if you are a stretcher, keep stretching and if you’re a non-stretcher, don’t.
 

An easy way to increase your risk of having a stroke: drink diet sodas.

According to a study reported at the American Stroke Association Conference, diet soda drinkers had a 61% higher risk of heart attack and stroke.

The researchers followed 2,500 New Yorkers for one plus years and found that people who drink diet soda every day had this increased risk.

Just think for a moment what’s in a diet soda – phosphoric acid, artificial colors, artificial favors and other assorted chemicals. Yummy!

So…water anyone?

Participant Feedback:

Here's what Serge Gravelle, President/CEO of My Mall Network Corporation, had to say about the Switched-On Selling Seminar:

"The results were instantaneous; within 24 hours, we had closed seven contracts, seven times more than we had done during the preceding eight months. By the end of the week, we had signed eighteen contracts. The best part is that I enjoyed making the sales, a feeling I had a hard time experiencing in the past."

Company Blows The Competition Out Of The Water During The Recession

A year ago August during the middle of the recession, Kevin Kordek, CEO A-Active Termite and Pest Control, put half his sales force through the one-day Switched-On Selling Seminar.

I spoke to him last August and Kordek told me that six of the eight people immediately jumped to above his top tier salespeople.

Next, his company became the #1 distributor in the country on two of his high-end product lines, and one of his salespeople increased his closing percentage by 300 percent!

Was there anything special or different about these sales people? Kordek said “No, they were middle level sales people before they attended the one day seminar.”
