New Type of Fish Oil Proven 47 Times Better For Your Health Than Regular Fish Oil
Dear Friend,
Now you can ‘upgrade” your Omega-3 rich Fish Oil capsules to ones that are proven 47 times more effective for your health using an ORAC rating …. and for no additional cost!
As you know, leading natural health experts recommend everyone should be taking Fish Oil. The main reason is the Omega 3 antioxidants in it reduce health-killing free radicals in your body.
But this breaking new research proves you should upgrade from your regular fish oil because a new kind works much better. It gives you more of the health benefits you want most – now and in the future.
The news is that Krill Fish Oil has proven far superior to regular Fish Oil for your health. In fact, a recent McGill University study by R.Bunea, M.D., K. Farrah, M.D. and L. Deutsch, M.D. showed:
Here are more proven clinical study results …
Fish Oil with their Omega 3’s Are “A Must” For Good Health
… This Discovery Gives Your Body Even Better Omega 3’s …
With 47 Times More Antioxidant Power Than Regular Fish
Oil!
Prograde ® EFA Icon Krill Fish Oil ™ is a revolutionary and quantum improvement for your health.
You see, the fish or crustracean we use to get our fish oil from is NOT the cheap stuff, but is Krill oil. Krill fish oil is very different than regular fish oil. If you haven’t heard of Krill before, its because its very hard to get. Krill are small crustaceans found in the Southern Ocean and Antarctic Ocean. The extraction of oil from Krill is a relatively new technology.
Prograde ® EFA Icon Krill Fish Oil ™ is much better for your health than regular Fish Oil for many reasons including …
#1. The antioxidant power is 297 times greater than vitamin A or E, and 47 times greater than regular fish oil! Regular fish oil is very low in antioxidant content. This is measured by the standard ORAC value.
#2. Its most powerful antioxidant effects are produced by astaxanthin which is NOT contained in regular fish oil . It readily crosses the blood-brain barrier, which helps to both protect and stimulate the brain for a better mood, better memory and clearer thinking.
#3. This is important: Krill Oil contains phospholipids which form a microscopic barrier that helps cells filter out toxins and free radical damage that can result in serious illnesses. Regular fish oil does NOT contain this.
#4. It has 500% better absorption by your body than regular fish oil, according to U.S. Government National Institutes Of Health.
#5. There is NO fishy aftertaste or digestion problems. No “fish burps”, or acid reflux that often occur with regular fish oil.
And if all that isn’t enough to get you to upgrade now, get this …
In fact, The FDA and EPA have issued health alerts warning against eating certain fish for young children, women who are pregnant (or may become pregnant) and for nursing mothers. According to the Mercury Policy Project, a 132 pound woman who eats 12 ounces of canned tuna a week could exceed the EPA’s “safe limit” by 350%!
Is farm-raised fish is a healthier option? No. These fish farms use hormones, chemicals and antibiotics so farms can earn more profit, and the fish can still have mercury and poisonous PCBs.
On the other hand, KRILL are tiny deepwater crustaceans at the very bottom of the food chain and completely free of unhealthy toxins and pollution commonly found in regular fish oil.
Want even more proof? Doctors in Japan have already switched their patients from regular fish oil to krill oil. The health benefits reported have been amazing!
“Return To Youth” and “Second Youth”
Reported By People Like You!
Your health and vitality could soon return to a younger state – how you felt 5, 10, or even more years ago!
EFA Icon Krill Fish Oil ™ helps rejuvenate the cells, glands and organs of your body, so they function as if you were much younger … so you look and feel much younger than you do now!
Our Krill Fish Oil contains phospholipids form a microscopic barrier that helps your cells filter out toxins that can result in life-threatening illnesses. They also protect against oxidative stress caused when damaging free-radical molecules break through weakened cell walls.
The EPA and DHA molecules in our Krill Fish Oil are attached to phospholipids, making them more bio-available and better absorbed by the body than other fish oils. And because of Krill’s high phospholipids and antioxidant content, there is no fishy aftertaste. Regular fish oil lacks this phospholipids complex.
It prevents plaque buildup in your arteries. It REDUCED POTENTIAL DEADLY FAT IN AND AROUND THE HEART REGION 21 times more than regular fish oil!
And if you have high blood sugar, it has been shown to reduce levels of a compound in the blood linked to heart disease. The peer-reviewed Nutrition, Metabolism and Cardiovascular Diseases reported a daily supplement cut levels of harmful homocysteine by 22 per cent, compared to less than 1 per cent in the placebo group!
Reduces Symptoms Of PMS For Women
A major study showed it significantly reduced the physical and emotional symptoms of PMS and “was much more effective than regular fish oil”.
This was a double-blind, randomized clinical trial reported in the journal Alternative Medicine Review.
This can mean less or NO MORE IRRITABILITY, MOODINESS, BLOATING, breast tenderness or FATIGUE.
4 Ugly Truths Kept Hidden From You
About Regular Fish Oil
#1. Contains Very Little Antioxidants. Regular fish oil has just 3% of the health-restoring, life-extending antioxidants found in our Prograde® EFA ICON KRILL FISH OIL ™.
#2. Poor Absorption by the body. You lose up to 80% of the listed DHA and EPA from regular fish oil no matter which brand you take, according to national absorption testing. This is because your body can’t efficiently break down the triglycerides needed to gain access to them.
#3. Fish Burps And Digestion Problems. These are common for many people who take regular fish oil capsules.
#4. Toxins and contaminants. The regular fish used is from polluted water and often has high levels of heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides and other toxins.
Now you can have better health and a longer lifespan to enjoy the things that really make you happy like:
EASIER WEIGHT LOSS!
“Lower Body Weight, Smaller Stomach, Lower Hip Size”!
A new study by Dr. Monahar Garg at University Of Newcastle concluded this changes levels of “hunger hormones” like ghrelin and leptin, which control appetite.
The result: faster and easier weight loss because you will be less hungry all the time!
The study showed people experience a feeling of fullness for longer. This was true even hours after eating meals!
Improves Memory, Thinking, Mood
and Prevents Mental Decline!
In a recent study, people improved their concentration and working capacity 60.2%, ability to focus 39.0%, planning skills 50.1%, social skills 48.9%, driving capacity and road-safety skills 34.5% This was scored using Barkley’s Executive Function Scoring.
In another study published in the Archives Of Neurology, those who consumed enough had 60% less risk of memory problems.
It helps with the generation of new nerve tissue in the brain, something that no one ever dreamed possible until now! This is why it works so well for improving mental cognition --- and preventing mental decline.
Prevents or Ends Eyestrain, Eye Fatigue and Cataract
Formation!
As you work away at your computer, your eyes are bombarded with bright light and visual stimulation at a close distance. The natural result from this is eye fatigue.
Results of clinical trials suggest the antioxidant Astaxanthin in our supplement works to prevent eyestrain and eye fatigue!
Dr. Mary Boesche, Professor of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at the University of Utah School of Medicine, notes: “In randomized, placebo-controlled studies, symptoms of eyestrain decreased in the subjects who took astaxanthin supplements.”

Astaxanthin has also been shown to lower risk of cataract formation and age-related macular degeneration, which is the leading cause of legal blindness for people over 55 years of age.
An Italian study showed Astaxanthin can actually improve visual function in patients who are in the early stages of age-related macular degeneration.
Now … You Get A Much More Effective Source Of Omega- 3’s… with 47 Times More Antioxidant Power To Relieve Your Health Problems and Feel Your Best … For about THE SAME COST as if you bought regular fish oil!
I’m so excited for you to start feeling better – your health problems gone -- your energy level higher … preventing serious illnesses … feeling better than you have in years!

I Have Been Using Prograde For 6 Months And I Love It!
I have chronic, long term arthritis in both knees and hips and I was taking Celebrex, but it causes its own set of issues, as you know. Among other things, I started taking Prograde supplements, lost about twenty pounds and started regular daily exercising.
OMG, my life has never been better. No pain AT ALL in my knees other than the usual stiffness and slight difficulty up and down stairs. Otherwise, I run 2K a day, walk everywhere, do aerobics and dance for hours. I could not have imagined such a thing just six months ago, so I just wanted to let you know. I am forwarding your website link to everyone I know and urging them at least to try.”

Increased body fat and a sluggish metabolism may not be entirely your fault.
Sometimes, no matter how well you eat and how much you exercise, your body fat levels barely change; especially if you have been overweight for awhile. Women experience this more than men due to other hormonal and physical differences.
Now, it’s true that weight loss is hard, otherwise it wouldn’t be worth so much to people to lose those stubborn pounds.
Body Weight Frustration Can Be Solved!
But not everyone is willing or able to undergo surgery, or take medications and eat like a mouse to lose weight. And they don’t have to.
Luckily, scientists are discovering new ways to change our cellular makeup with simple, but powerful, dietary strategies so that it’s easier for people to eat less, burn more calories, and shed unwanted fat.
All this may sound too good to be true, but it’s actually real. You can add or subtract specific foods and nutrients from your diet, and make a drastic difference in your metabolism, without having to starve yourself to do it.
However, before I share some of this exciting research with you, I must first make this disclaimer:
There is NO magic bullet in existence for weight loss!
Losing fat is a multi-factorial effort. It takes consistent and good eating habits, regular and effective exercise, and the right mindset to make it happen. Without these all in place, no new scientific discovery will make any difference in your weight or health.
Now, on to the science:
Researchers have recently discovered that certain systems in our body are responsible for appetite and metabolism. One of these systems is called the endocannabinoid system (called ECS).
Some people may recognize the word cannabinoid and think it’s related to marijuana. And, in fact, they are right, which I’ll explain more below.
The ECS is a complex signaling system located in the brain and many other tissues, and is comprised of special receptors (CB1 and CB2), proteins and ligands (such as AEA and 2-AG), that play an important role in physical and emotional responses to stress with appetite and energy regulation.
This system is thought to affect a wide variety of physiologic processes including nociception (pain sense), motor control, memory and learning, food intake, and energy balance.
Several studies have demonstrated that in obese or diabetic rodents and humans, activity of the ECS is elevated in adipose tissue, liver, and pancreas, also in the brain, particularly the hypothalamus. These people also have increased levels of the ECS ligands, anandamide (AEA) and 2- arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG).
Activation of the ECS increases food intake, decreases energy expenditure, and disrupts glucose and lipid homeostasis by inducing insulin resistance - which is not good for health or body composition at all.
On the flip side, blockage of the ECS receptors and ligands in the lab through pharmacological means or genetic knockout of ECS receptors in mice, decreases food intake and body weight, and markedly improves insulin sensitivity, glucose, and lipid homeostasis in obesity.
With respect to marijuana, the chemicals (primarily THC) in this plant are shown to act directly on ECS receptors in the brain and greatly increase food-seeking behavior, while decreasing energy expenditure (munchies anyone?).
Marijuana Munchies Are Rooted In Our Brains
The EC System was actually named when scientists discovered the receptor in the brain (and then other organs) that were responsible for the actions of cannabis (aka, marijuana). The endocannabinoid system was essential to life and relates messages that affect how we relax, eat, sleep, feel pain, forget, and protect. But most interesting right now is its role in body weight regulation and hunger.
As such, the EC System is being investigated in great detail so scientists can find ways to decrease its activity and help people with greater appetites and lower energy output to lose weight and be healthier.
Krill Oil and the Endocannabinoid System
Scientists are now looking for ways to restore normal tone and activity to the ECS in obese and diabetic people that have abnormalities with this system.
Some pharmacological antagonists have been tried without success, as they have been shown to have psychiatric side effects, such as increased incidence of depression and anxiety.
However, recently, triumph with supplemental krill oil has been found.
Krill Oil is Better Than Pharmaceutical Drugs
In obese rats, krill oil, more so than fish oil, was able to down-regulate the ECS in different tissues, helping rats eat less and lose body fat.
Even though both oils caused an increase in blood levels of EPA and DHA (the omega-3 fatty acids in marine oils), krill oil was more effective at inhibiting the ECS and caused greater decreases in fatty liver and fatty heart.
Recently, the beneficial effects in humans of krill oil supplementation were shown, as well.
Sixty-three normal weight, overweight, and obese men and women were given either 2 grams of krill oil, 2 grams of fish oil, or 2 grams of olive oil for 4 weeks.
At the beginning of the study, it was found that the obese men and women, but not the overweight, had increased levels of AEA, while both overweight and obese people had higher levels of 2-AG (than normal weight people). This supports other findings that show that high 2-AG levels are associated with high body fat levels rather than just high BMI.
After 4 weeks, the krill oil was able to significantly decrease levels of 2-AG in the obese and overweight subjects, while the fish oil and olive oil did not do anything. Both the fish oil and krill oil had a positive and similar effect on blood EPA and DHA levels, but the krill oil was better at reducing endocannabinoid levels.
Krill oil is more potent in this regard because of the more efficient utilization of krill oil fatty acids into cellular tissues due to its unique molecular phospholipid structure. Compare this to fish oil, which has a triglyceride structure.
A Phospholipid Has Only Two Fatty Acid "Tails" While A Triglyceride Has Three
Since this study was so short (4 weeks), there were no significant overall changes in the participants' body fat levels or cardiovascular disease risk. However, longer studies will probably show benefits similar to animal studies conducted for a greater length of time.
Overall, krill oil has the ability to help people struggling with high body fat levels, enhanced appetite, and sluggish metabolisms better than fish oil and other common cooking oils. A dose of just 2 grams of day can have a great effect on the energy regulation system in the body, as long as the length of time consumed is more than just 4 weeks.

#5. There is NO fishy aftertaste or digestion problems. No “fish burps”, or acid reflux that often occur with regular fish oil.
And if all that isn’t enough to get you to upgrade now, get this …
Regular FISH OIL Comes From
A POLLUTED FOOD SOURCE!
That’s right! A high percent of regular fish oil is highly contaminated with toxins like mercury, lead, arsenic, PCB’s, the radioactive strontium and other pollutants from industrial waste in the water.A POLLUTED FOOD SOURCE!
In fact, The FDA and EPA have issued health alerts warning against eating certain fish for young children, women who are pregnant (or may become pregnant) and for nursing mothers. According to the Mercury Policy Project, a 132 pound woman who eats 12 ounces of canned tuna a week could exceed the EPA’s “safe limit” by 350%!
Is farm-raised fish is a healthier option? No. These fish farms use hormones, chemicals and antibiotics so farms can earn more profit, and the fish can still have mercury and poisonous PCBs.
On the other hand, KRILL are tiny deepwater crustaceans at the very bottom of the food chain and completely free of unhealthy toxins and pollution commonly found in regular fish oil.
Want even more proof? Doctors in Japan have already switched their patients from regular fish oil to krill oil. The health benefits reported have been amazing!
| This Could Even SAVE YOUR LIFE! The HARVARD SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH found that Omega-3 deficient diets cause up to 96,000 preventable deaths annually in the United States. This is even more deaths than from high Trans Fat intake!The average American diet is severely deficient in the Omega-3 vitamins DHA and EPA. You CANNOT get enough from eating fish because you’d have to eat Salmon or a similar fish 6 to 24 times A WEEK depending on your current health! The best way to get your life-vital Omega-3’s each day is by taking EFA Icon Krill Fish Oil ™. It contains ALL and the BEST Omega-3’s your body needs PLUS a large amount of health-improving, life-extending antioxidants NOT found in regular fish oil! |
“Return To Youth” and “Second Youth”
Reported By People Like You!
EFA Icon Krill Fish Oil ™ helps rejuvenate the cells, glands and organs of your body, so they function as if you were much younger … so you look and feel much younger than you do now!
Our Krill Fish Oil contains phospholipids form a microscopic barrier that helps your cells filter out toxins that can result in life-threatening illnesses. They also protect against oxidative stress caused when damaging free-radical molecules break through weakened cell walls.
The EPA and DHA molecules in our Krill Fish Oil are attached to phospholipids, making them more bio-available and better absorbed by the body than other fish oils. And because of Krill’s high phospholipids and antioxidant content, there is no fishy aftertaste. Regular fish oil lacks this phospholipids complex.
Up To 21 Times More Effective Than Regular Fish Oil
For YOUR HEART HEALTH!
It Lowers Inflammation, Cholesterol and Triglycerides!
The Alternative Medicine Review reported a double-blind clinical trial showed Superba Krill Oil to be effective for the support of healthy cholesterol, triglycerides and blood lipids.For YOUR HEART HEALTH!
It Lowers Inflammation, Cholesterol and Triglycerides!
It prevents plaque buildup in your arteries. It REDUCED POTENTIAL DEADLY FAT IN AND AROUND THE HEART REGION 21 times more than regular fish oil!
And if you have high blood sugar, it has been shown to reduce levels of a compound in the blood linked to heart disease. The peer-reviewed Nutrition, Metabolism and Cardiovascular Diseases reported a daily supplement cut levels of harmful homocysteine by 22 per cent, compared to less than 1 per cent in the placebo group!
Reduces Symptoms Of PMS For Women
This was a double-blind, randomized clinical trial reported in the journal Alternative Medicine Review.
This can mean less or NO MORE IRRITABILITY, MOODINESS, BLOATING, breast tenderness or FATIGUE.
4 Ugly Truths Kept Hidden From You
About Regular Fish Oil
#2. Poor Absorption by the body. You lose up to 80% of the listed DHA and EPA from regular fish oil no matter which brand you take, according to national absorption testing. This is because your body can’t efficiently break down the triglycerides needed to gain access to them.
#3. Fish Burps And Digestion Problems. These are common for many people who take regular fish oil capsules.
#4. Toxins and contaminants. The regular fish used is from polluted water and often has high levels of heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides and other toxins.

Results of clinical trials suggest the antioxidant Astaxanthin in our supplement works to prevent eyestrain and eye fatigue!
Dr. Mary Boesche, Professor of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at the University of Utah School of Medicine, notes: “In randomized, placebo-controlled studies, symptoms of eyestrain decreased in the subjects who took astaxanthin supplements.”

Push-Ups Event Nets $4,000 for Wounded Warriors

“The Police and Fire Department really helped by their participation,” Ward said. “The kids were so excited that they were there to do push-ups with them.”
Ward said she is proud of her Fit Body Boot Campers, who helped raise more than $4,000 to help our troops in need. Boot Camper Eric Gurvin was the top male push-up performer, with an impressive 143 push-ups in 90 seconds and female participate Kathy Freund with 133!

Does Our Metabolism Really Slow Down As We Age?
Here is an Interesting Article from my Partners at Prograde
By Cassandra Forsythe-Pribanic, PhD, RD, CSCS
It’s Mother’s day, and as I sit down to write on this topic, I can’t help but wonder:
“Am I going to look like my mom when I’m her age?”
Not that my mother is ugly or anything, but she certainly has a little more “junk in the trunk” than I’d like to have.
And, her arms jiggle a bit when she waves; not like a tray of Jell-O, but they definitely have a softness to them that makes me cringe inside a little (Mom, if you’re reading this… I love you!!).
For the guys: I’m sure when you first met the woman you are now married to (or plan to marry), you checked out her mother to see what her future hotness potential would be.
If her mom was a bit chubby, no problem – most mom’s are, right? But, if her mom shared a similarity to a Beluga Whale, you probably thought twice about your decision.
Or men, when you look at your dad, is that how you want to look like when you’re his age?
For most guys, probably not, but for some, it’s a possibility; especially if your dad looks like George Clooney.
Whomever it may be, mom, dad, you or me, we all want to know: Is it possible to maintain our leanness and muscularity as we age? Or, should we just enjoy it while we’ve got it and not fight fate?
Well, first think about this: About 40% of the calories we expend every day, called our Total Energy Expenditure, is due to the amount of activity we engage in.
Both of these together are called Activity Energy Expenditure or AEE.
Now, compare your AEE now, to your AEE 10, 20 or even 30 years ago? Are you doing the same amount of physically activity, which includes gym or game time, plus daily movements as your younger years? Or, are you considerably less active?
If you’re like most North Americans, you’re probably a lot more sedentary than you used to be. From long commutes to work, to hours on an office chair, to lengthy business meetings and then busing your kids to soccer practice, then gymnastics and Tae Kwan Doe, you definitely move a lot less now than you did when you were younger – especially if you have kids.
For myself, 10 years ago I was walking to and from my classes at college all day long. Then, I’d hit the gym for at least 2 hours (yes, it was a long time, but I didn’t really like studying and used every excuse not to), followed by working long shifts as either a server or clerk where I was constantly on my feet. Also, if I ever had to go anywhere other than school or the gym, I’d bike or walk, but never, ever drive.
Compare that to now, where I have to drive everywhere (I swear, I’ve driven more in the past 5 years than I ever have in all the previous years of my life, not by choice, but because it’s now impossible to walk or bike), I sit for many hours at a computer writing articles like this, then, I manage to get in at least a few hours of teaching exercise classes, followed by house work and chasing around a 13 month old.
Yes, it’s not complete laziness, but it’s definitely a lot less than a decade ago.
And, this decline in activity impacts how many calories we burn each day, in addition to how much muscle we have (you’ve heard the phrase “Use it or lose it”, right? Well, it’s true).
So, this is the first issue. If you want to prevent your metabolism from dropping when you get older, and do everything possible to not end up looking like your overweight parent, you’ve got to keep moving!
Specifically, exercising with a mixture of both aerobic and strength activities is going to give you the best bang for your buck. Physical activity also preserves lean muscle mass, so in addition to a fast metabolism, you’ll keep your toned tummy.
Researchers have shown that aerobic capacity and exercise volume are positively correlated with the amount of calories your burn each day. This means that both the intensity and amount of exercise you do is important.
Further, for men, maintaining a high energy intake along with high energy expenditure is important for keeping their metabolism going strong. For women, this isn’t found to be the case. But, calories are important for giving you the energy to actually be physically active.
Regular physical activity additionally has the benefit of helping people maintain normal cognitive function, such as memory, processing time, and executive function, while reducing or delaying the risk of late-life dementia.
Sounds pretty good, right? Then get off your butt and get moving to help not only keep your leanness, but preserve brain power!
But can we really prevent out metabolism from slowing down?
According to experts in this area of aging research, it looks like no matter what we do, we can’t really prevent our metabolisms from slowing down completely.
It’s just like aging: there’s no such thing as anti-aging. Regardless of what we do, we’re still going to age. The Fountain of Youth doesn’t really exist.
Don’t waste your money on the admission fee
As we age, the metabolic function of our muscles and organs change, such that we become worse at oxidizing (burning) fats and carbs, and better at storing them. We also have a harder time making muscle and other important tissue like healthy skin and bones.
However, older adults who are more fit are proven to have more muscle and less fat, but the rate of decline in muscle loss and metabolic rate is similar for all adults regardless of fitness level.
But the bottom line is that if you start out with more muscle, it’ll take longer to break it down and you’ll still have more than your sedentary roommate in the nursing home when you die.
What should we eat to maintain a fast metabolism?
Recently, a large group of researchers collected prospective data from a cohort 3,075 older adults in something called the Health, Aging and Body Composition (ABC) study. From this information, many different discoveries have been found, but one of them that was particularly applicable to this discussion was what healthy older adults eat to stay lean.
Although this study only used food frequency questionnaires (FFQ) to analyze diet, which is subject to reporter bias, it was found that there were six dietary patterns that were associated with healthy survival over a 10 year period:
1. Fruit
2. Vegetables
3. Whole Grains
4. Poultry
5. Fish
6. Low-fat (not fat-free!) Dairy
Basically, when you include plenty of fruit and vegetables, which are rich in age-fighting antioxidants, whole grains like rice (not bread!), turkey, chicken, eggs, and salmon, along with low-fat yogurt, you’re getting nutrients that help you live a long, healthy life.2. Vegetables
3. Whole Grains
4. Poultry
5. Fish
6. Low-fat (not fat-free!) Dairy
It also suggests that red meats may not be the answer to a long life, but that may be up for debate as the FFQ often lumps red meat with processed high-salt, nitrite-containing meat products. And, not-so-healthy vegetable oils/soy bean oils, are usually combined with good oils like olive and flax, so it’s hard to say these are life-shortening or not.
In addition to this data, we can compare with information from the dietary habits of healthy centarians (people who live healthily past 100 years). From the well-researched book, Blue Zones, by Dan Buettner, five Blue Zones have been identified in the world:
• Sardinia, Italy
• Okinawa, Japan
• Loma Linda, CA
• Nicoya Peninsula, Cost Rica
• Icaria, Greece
In these areas, there are certain common nutrition and physical habits that they all display:• Okinawa, Japan
• Loma Linda, CA
• Nicoya Peninsula, Cost Rica
• Icaria, Greece
• They consume plenty plant foods, such as fruits, vegetables, beans, nuts and seeds and real whole grains (grains, not breads)
• They do not smoke
• They drink moderate wine and tea
• They do not stress when they eat
• They include powerful spices like turmeric and cayenne
• They maintain a consistent high level of physical activity

Living Long and Living Lean
So, ladies: if you want to avoid the thunder thighs and tummy pooch that your mother carries around, and guys, if you want to avoid your dad’s beer gut, do everything you can to stay very physically active your whole life and eat real food, not processed junk.
Don’t let kids get in your way of a healthy exercise routine and daily movement. Instead, be active with your kids, and that doesn’t mean just driving them around to every activity you can cram in their day. And, don’t make the excuse that you have to eat excessive amounts of candy, or refined foods because that’s all your kids eat. If you let them only eat that, it’s your own issue, but don’t fall into the same trap yourself.
If you’re not a parent, don’t let work or extended happy hour ruin your daily lift or run. Your life (and lean body) is too important to throw all away in just a few years of a new corporate position. Work is not life, and it won’t buy you liposuction when you develop more cellulite lumps than a bowl of cottage cheese.
And Mom – I do love you, but I’m going to do everything I can to not have your thighs Love, Me
