The prostate is a small gland located just under the bladder and it’s part of the male reproductive system. The prostate encircles the urethra (the tube that carries urine from the bladder outside the body) and produces and secretes a nutrient rich fluid that protects and helps transport sperm. The prostate gland resembles a chestnut in size and shape.
In most men, the prostate gland will undergo two stages of growth. The first stage occurs early in life and is usually complete by the end of puberty. The prostate usually remains the same size for many years; however, it may begin growing again during middle age, and some men develop symptoms by age 40. If the prostate becomes enlarged it may compress the urethra, which can interfere with elimination of urine and semen. The interference with urine elimination can cause a number of irritating symptoms and can lead to more serious problems as well. There are a few things one can do to keep the prostate healthy. Doctors recommend periodic prostate checkups and lifestyle changes like cutting down on caffeinated drinks, going easy on salt and spices and eating dinner earlier in the evening to give the body a chance to eliminate fluids before bedtime. Supplementing your diet is also a good idea. I have a supplement that is a scientifically developed blend of lycopene, saw palmetto berry, pumpkin seed and zinc—–all natural source ingredients that support prostate health without any uncomfortable side effects. Some competitive brands have lycopene but don’t include the palmetto berry, pumpkin seed or other important prostate health nutrients.

Supplements
Posted by trixie42 on June 26, 2008
In this fast paced world we live in, our eating habits are not the greatest and taking supplements are important to our well-being.
I take a gender specific supplement with research recommended levels of vitamins, minerals, antioxidents and probiotics. Plus heart healthy flavonoids, phytosterols and omega-3 fatty acids. Formulated to meet the specific gender needs for men and women. This is so convenient as your doses come in packets. One am and one pm packet. For women there are multiple vitamins and minerals including high levels of folate, biotin, calcium and iron. These supplements help bridge the nutritional gap in womens diets. Fructose occurs naturally in fruits, vegetables and their juices, as well as honey. It gives these foods their sweet taste. Fructose in crystalline form has been widely used for the past 20 years as a nutritive sweetener in foods and beverages.
Fructose compounding mineral delivery system designed to help the absorption of vital minerals. For men this iron free supplement includes the vitamins and minerals men need every day to bridge the nutritional gaps in there diets.
The Mineral Complex is timed released and helps promote strong bones and teeth. A blend of calcium sources plus phosphorus, magnesium, and vitamin D. Designed with the fructose compounding to help the absorption. Another reduces the risk of heart disease when used as part of a diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol. Phytosterols reduce serum cholesterol levels by inhibiting the absorption of cholesterol in the blood stream. Plant sterols, phytosterols, are cholesterol-like compounds that are found mostly in vegetable oils, nuts and legumes. Diet rich in plant sterols helps Omega three fatty acids promote healthy triglyceride levels. Also a flavonoid powerhouse that helps prevent LDL(bad) cholesterol oxidation and helps maintain healthy blood platelet activity with a patented blend of grape skin, grape seed and other heart-smart antioxidants. One other unique dietary supplement helps fortify and detoxify your gastrointestinal tract with two strains of healthy probiotics. This good “flora” helps improve the absorption of all the nutrients in your food. A useful antioxidant unleashes superior antioxidant power on free radicals throughout your body. This supplement is made with a combination of mixed carotenoids derived from whole foods. It provides free radical protection at the cellular level.
With this group of supplements that come in packets I take mine with breakfast and dinner. That way I am taking them with food which is recommended.
To maintain a healthy lifestyle one needs to consider supplements.

Gas Prices/Added Income
Posted by trixie42 on June 6, 2008
Can you believe that gas prices actually went down in the last day or so. Back down to $3.76. Wow! I recieved an email today with tips for saving on gas that I want to share with you. The following is from Charlie Fish from Eagle View Mortgage:
Tips for Stretching Your Tank
In terms of the economy and its effect on our daily lives, there is no hotter topic than the outrageous prices we are seeing at the pumps. The maddening part is as consumers, we have zero control over these inflated costs. To make matters worse, there’s always that person who says something like, “You know, Europeans pay a lot more for gas than we do.” That’s true, but it doesn’t make it any easier when we’re reaching for our credit cards at the pump. The absolute worst part about high gas prices, however, is the notion of having no alternatives. Even a diligent hybrid owner has to make a trip to the gas station at some point, right?
So, now that you’re feeling backed into a corner and completely depressed about the situation, what do you do? The answer is actually a simple one; cut down on the amount of gas you use. I realize it doesn’t sound simple, but by changing just a few bad habits, any motorist can stretch a tank of gas no matter what type of car they drive. Here are some tips that are sure to help.
Go Easy on the Pedals - Jackrabbit driving is a killer when it comes to burning fuel. Remember that slow and steady wins the race in more ways than one.
Avoid Long Idles - The bottom line is idling burns more gas than restarting an engine.
No Junk in the Trunk - Clean out your trunk and the rest of your car for that matter. Excess weight bogs down your vehicle, causing it to burn more fuel.
Drive the Speed Limit - The higher the speed, the more gas your car will use.
Go Easy on the A/C - Air conditioning burns gas. Before turning it on, ask yourself if rolling down a window or two might do the trick.
Use Overdrive and Cruise Control - Most automatic transmissions have these features. If you drive a stick, consult your owner’s manual about the recommended RPMs when shifting.
Keep Tires Inflated and Aligned - Believe it or not, frequent alignments and keeping your tires inflated to the proper amount will save you gas.
Honor the Scheduled Maintenance - Scheduled maintenance is designed to help your car run as efficiently as possible. Check your owner’s manual for specifics.
There you go, eight possible solutions to an otherwise unfixable problem. In addition, you may want to exlpore the idea of carpooling. Also, walking now and then is an option. Not only will it save you gas – it’ll keep you healthy.
Do you have any tips for saving gas?
Give me a call and tell me about them!
I realize how the economy has affected so many lives and I want to show you a business that makes total sense. Please get in touch with me at 952-894-4845 or email me at sbloch@q.com
