Automaticbody-does a body good-
Automaticbody is great for your weight-loss needs, but we all need some solid food once and a while so here are 7 that you might want to give a try.
Remember that proper dietary choices help us to maintain a proper body weight-SNACK ON!!!
1. Oranges - Loaded with Vitamin "C" oranges along with kiwi, strawberries, peppers, cantaloupe, and tomatoes are great for controlling cortistol levels under stressful situations.
2. Turkey - Turkey contains an amino acid called L-tryptophan, which also triggers serotonin release and a relaxed state. Low fat and high protein, a winning combination.
3. Salmon - Salmon and other cold water fatty fish are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to have a stress relieving effect.
4. Avocados - With potassium levels higher than bananas, avocados help in controlling high blood pressure.
5. Broccoli - Broccoli loaded with folic acid, a vitamin which has been proven to reduce stress, depression and anxiety.
6. Almonds - Loaded with B vitamins, vitamin E, magnesium, and zinc, all of which are involved in the production of serotonin. The zinc and magnesium combination in particular has been shown to improve sleep, including falling asleep quicker and waking more alert.
7. Blueberries - Packed with antioxidants that reduce oxidative stress within the body. Oxidation leads to free radical production. Too many free radicals and we see early signs of aging plus cancer and other devastating diseases.
Of course there are hundreds of different foods you can add to this list, basically any fruit or vegetable.

Meeting your Protein needs
Bodybuilding, Pain and You
We will be looking today at some ways that the mature lifter can "BRING DOWN THE HOUSE OF PAIN", although this information is not intend just for the mature but for all ages, arthritis can strike at any age.
If you have been lifting for any period of time ,even world champions experience some type of chronic joint pain such as arthritis, which involves an actual wearing away of the joint surface.
This is why Schwarzeneggar had hip replacement surgery.
Weight lifting is not the villain as most people as they age experience some form of arthritis, even though it is not a naturally occurring process just because you're aging.
From a training standpoint it's simply best to avoid exercises that either hyper-extend your joints or place them at an unnatural angle.
This is why I keep telling you there are certain exercises that I don't do, including anything that puts my shoulder joints out of position, and nothing behind the head.
" IF IT HURTS DON'T DO IT".
Modern medicine offers little or nothing to prevent joint pain, and when it occurs can only offer medication to treat the symptom and not the source of the problem, so lets you and me look at some solutions.
1/ After the age of 40 the body will take longer to recover from exercise, so slow down, stop lifting really heavy weight{ who are you trying to impress}, and if pain occurs let your body fully recover.
2/ Studies show that green tea also appears to prevent joint breakdown, again likely due to a potent anti-oxidant effect, although it seems to inhibit key enzymes in the process as well.
3/ Obesity is definitely a risk factor for arthritis especially in the knees and hips-{ I personally can attest to this as being 100 lbs overweight and twisting my knee every time I get out of the truck has left me with knee problems, and is the reason I'm dropping a 100 lbs, I'm down 40lbs and feeling great.
4/ Not eating meat may reduce the level of collagen intake and some speculate that this may be a risk factor for joint problems.
5/ Vitamin C is vital for collagen synthesis and one sign of a vitamin C deficiency is a breakdown of connective tissue due to a slowdown of collagen production. Xango"s Limitless Collection is great for an energy surge right before a workout and contains key ingredients that the body craves without the artificial sweeteners.

Green tea has a calorie consuming effect within the body, but green tea also has a positive effect on men's testosterone levels.
The elements found in green tea are various catechin, or polyphenol compounds, and studies show that older individuals who consume four cups a day are less frail.
Green tea extract can also have an effect on our hormones, in men green tea extract can block the activity of aromatase, the enzyme that converts androgen's, such as testosterone into estrogen.
{If you wonder by I'm telling you this it's because testosterone is the hormone largely responsible for the SEX DRIVE IN MEN.}
Other studies show that green tea extract may inhibit {5-alpha reductase}, which converts testosterone into DHT. DHT is linked to male pattern baldness, acne, enlarged prostate and prostate cancer.
For best results with your testosterone levels-stop smoking,loss weight,limit alcohol, exercise and drink green tea.
