Important Message: Please note, our website address was incorrect. The correct web address follows this article!

Greetings, Beloved Reader! It is my prayer for you – and the desire of your Heavenly Father – that you prosper and be healthy in your soul (mind—thoughts and emotions) and in your body (3 John 1:2). May you glean from this week’s article the knowledge you need to be healthy!

Part 4 ends the series, “Eating Well…Feeling Satisfied…And Losing Weight!*” In this article, we will discuss posture and exercise.

STOP! Don’t hit that delete button! There are simple things that you can do to improve digestion and circulation, even for those who may experience musculoskeletal issues.

For many, the thought of going to a gym to work out creates extreme anxiety and negativity. You may have experienced similar emotions: “I’m too fat, they’ll laugh” or “I can’t do those exercises, my joints hurt too badly.” You may have bought into the devil’s lie: “I can’t change. Who am I kidding?” The truth is, these are not who you are! If you have received Jesus as your Savior, you are a Child of God, the Beloved of Jesus! Therefore, you are “being changed into His image with ever-increasing glory. This comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.” (2 Corinthians 3:18, God’s Word Bible) Adam Clarke’s Commentary on the Bible further clarifies this verse: “By the energy of that Spirit of Christ which gives life and being to all the promises of the Gospel…we are made partakes of the Divine nature and escape all corruptions that are in the world.” Who are you? You are a partaker…a participant(!)…in all the promises of the Bible through Jesus Christ! Therefore, you share in the “Divine nature” of Christ…and as a participant of this Divine nature; you are free to break away from illness and ill-health…you are free to break away from destructive thoughts and lifestyles! That means, Beloved Reader, you can experience optimum health throughout your lifetime!

Posture:

What is posture? To better understand posture, let’s review its origin. Our word posture comes from the Latin very “ponere” which means “to put or place.” According to the Encarta Dictionary, posture is “the way in which somebody hold his or her body, especially when standing” and “a position that the body can assume, e.g. standing, sitting, kneeling, or lying down.”

The concept of good posture may be referred to as “neutral spine positioning.” Neutral spine positioning is the correct alignment of the body…the spine is not straight…natural curves

In the thoracic (upper) and lumber (lower) regions…slight forward curve in the lumbar region (lordosis)…a slight backward curve in the thoracic region (kyphosis)…a slight extension in the cervical vertebra at the top of the spine. The ears, shoulders, hips, knees and ankles should be aligned as if a plumb line were running from the ears down through the torso into the legs and the feet. Neutral posturing allows the body to function at its strongest, most balanced position; therefore, minimizing stress to joints, muscles, vertebrae and tissue. Neutral posture can be maintained in any position: standing, sitting, kneeling, or lying down.

Tips for Good Posture:

Improving your posture is easier than you may think. Follow these simple tips for a better posture:

1. Standing up straight does not mean you should tense your back, pull your chest in and up while forcing your chin down to your chest! Good posture aligns your ears loosely above your shoulders, above your hips. These points make a straight line while the spine itself still has the “S” curve. Your body’s weight should be evenly distributed on the outside portion of your feet. Do not place your body weight on your heels. Your legs should be approximately shoulder-width apart with your arms hanging naturally at your side. This position should not cause pain! If you have pain, STOP! Realign yourself according to these instructions, and try again!

2. When sitting in an office chair, it is important to maintain good posture alignment! Avoid slouching or leaning forward, keep your elbows at a 70-90 degree angle and keep both feet flat on the floor. ADJUST YOUR CHAIR AS NEEDED TO MAINTAIN GOOD POSTURE!

3. Gentle stretching can help get you back into good posture alignment.

a. Tilt (gently stretch) your head in all four directions (forward back, left, right) over your shoulder. DO NOT ROLL HEAD IN A CIRCLE! Gently massage neck.

b. On your hands and knees, curl your back up as a cat and then do the opposite (visualize a bowl placed in the hollow of your back).

c. Repeat these stretching exercises throughout the day. They can raise your energy level without doing a heavy workout!

To exercise or not to exercise, that is the question!

When you hear the word, “exercise,” what you do imagine? Do you think it will encompass too much time, special equipment or too much impact upon swollen, sore joints? There is good news here! Exercise is simply movement…just get moving! Here's some simple suggestions for getting moving:

1. Start slow and set realistic goals for yourself. Reward yourself at special milestones. Nothing motivates better than success!

2. Choose something fun to do. I suggest 20-Minue Praise Moves fitness DVD by Laurette Willis. This DVD has beginner to advanced segments. PLUS, there's a special section for those with limited mobility. You can purchase Laurette's fitness video at www.praisemoves.com.

3. Don't buy expensive "exercise" clothing. Just wear something comfortable and a pair of properly fitted footwear.

4. Find a convenient time in your day to exercise such as 30-45 minutes before a meal or 1.5 hours after a meal. Break your exercise routine in to 10-15 minute segments. How about "slump time," you know, that time of day you'd rather take a nap than exercise!

5. Use your exercise time as another opportunity to fellowship with the LORD. If you have to, dedicate this time as a sacrifice of praise unto God!

6. Surround yourself with supportive people. Decide what kind of support you need--how about an accountability partner--and have those selected individuals help you!

Beloved, you can do this! You can change your life by changing your lifestyle. Anything you do is a beginning. Your beginning gives you something to build upon. Come on, Beloved, let's begin!

Remember, it’s your health…your life…live responsibly!

Part 3 of Eating Well…Feeling Satisfied…And Losing Weight!*

By Pam Anderson, DNM, RN, AHNA, CNHP

Greetings, Beloved Reader! It is my prayer for you – and the desire of your Heavenly Father – that you prosper and be healthy in your soul (mind—thoughts and emotions) and in your body (3 John 1:2). May Part 3 of this series impart to you the knowledge you need to be healthy!

Let’s spend a few moments in review:

• Part 1 – we discussed the basis for the Glycemic Index
  • The GI eating plan adjusts for personal preferences and lifestyles and helps achieve goals for blood glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides levels, blood pressure, and weight management.
  • There are no counting calories or jeopardizing your health when using the GI as a guide to healthier eating.
• Part 2 – we discussed the basis of digestion:
  • Simply stated, digestion is the mechanical and chemical breaking down of food so it can be absorbed.
  • Tips for better digestion:
    • Digestibility
    • Healthy eating pattern

• Low glycemic foods
• Food combining

Today, we will delve further into food combining. Relax! It really does work!

Why Should I Consider Food Combining:

Okay, Beloved Reader, your bemoaning of this series is heard! Believe me, I can identify with you. First the glycemic index, then all those tips for better digestion, and now…food combining! Have you ever eaten a meal or a snack only to discover within a short period of time, you are experiencing indigestion, bloating, or gas? I have! My symptoms progressed until I was diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome and eventually, my symptoms became so severe a cholecystectomy (gallbladder surgery) was performed. My journey towards optimum health has opened my eyes to consequences of proper vs. improper food combining. And you, Beloved Reader, may be experiencing similar ill-health symptoms* as I once had. Those symptoms of indigestion, bloating, gas and irritable bowel behavior may be related to improper food combining…and if that is the case, you can alleviate these symptoms with proper food combining.

What Is Food Combining:

First, let’s examine the principles behind food combining. Consider the stomach as a butter churn. Its responsibility is to churn…or break food down…via chemical and enzymatic activity. The stomach’s chemical/enzymatic activities are dependent upon alkalinity or acidity of the nutrients to be broken down. Alkalis and acids are opposites…alkalis and acids will neutralize one another. This neutralization process may hinder or completely arrest digestion. The end result: fermentation and putrefaction of the foods eaten. Due to undigested, fermented and putrefied food wastes, such as protein, exaggerated immune and endocrine responses may result. These responses can eventually trigger an autoimmune response with the potential to develop into an autoimmune disorder/disease. Some types of autoimmune diseases have been correlated to poor digestion, metabolism and assimilation of nutrients. These include: diabetes, thyroiditis, multiple sclerosis, lupus, celiac disorders, Crohns disease, ulcerative colitis, and arthritis to name a few.

As you can see, Beloved Reader, there are sound physiological reasons for food combining. Food combining is dictated by chemistry. Different foods will digest differently. Starchy foods require an alkaline medium for digestion while protein foods require an acid medium for digestion.

While I am an advocate for food combining, I understand that life-style changes must occur in “bite-size” pieces. For people who have not been diagnosed with serious or life-threatening disease processes, less perfect combinations may be eaten. However, as with any positive life-style changes, the more we know, the more we grow in health!

Tips for food combining:

1. Oils and fats should be used in moderation. Restrict the use of margarine or other hydrogenated oils.
2. Proteins and starches digest poorly together; therefore, limit or restrict combining these.
3. Vegetables and starches combine well together.
4. Vegetables and proteins combine well together.
5. Acid fruits and sweet fruits digest poorly together; therefore, limit or restrict combining these.
6. Acid fruits and sub-acid fruits combine well together.
7. Sweet fruits and sub-acid fruits combine well together.
8. Melons should be eaten alone as they do not digest well with other foods; however, any of the melons can be combined together.
9. Fruits should not be combined with vegetables or grains; however, there is an exception to this rule: Leaf lettuce or celery may be combined with fruits to help deal with the excessive sugars.

Food Charts:

OILS / FATS	Butter, avocado (best mixed with green veggies or sub-acid fruits), olive oil, flax seed oil, coconut oil, almonds, pecans, pumpkin seeds, sunflowers seeds
PROTEINS	Seeds, nuts, meats, dairy, dried peas and beans and all other bean products
STARCHES	Potatoes, parsnips, corn, pasta, bread, winter squash, lima beans, pumpkins, coconut, yams, most legumes, whole-grain cereals, brown and wild rice, all grains
VEGETABLES	Asparagus, beets, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, celery, red/yellow/green peppers, leaf lettuce and endive, cabbage, cucumbers, eggplant, spinach, string beans, kale, parsley, and tomatoes
SWEET FRUITS	Bananas, papaya, Thompson and Muscat grapes, persimmon, dates, figs, raisins, prunes, other dried fruits
ACID FRUITS	Strawberries, grapefruit, oranges, tangelos, kiwi, pineapple, raspberries, cran-berries, gooseberries, tangerines, limes, kumquat, sour plums, pomegranates
SUB-ACID FRUITS	Apples, apricots, blackberries, blueberries, cherries, nectarines, peaches, pears, mangos, peaches, pears, mangos, plums, most grapes, passion fruit, guava, papaya (**Lemons may be combined with all food types and its juice may be used to replace vinegar in recipes)
MELONS	Honey Dew, Cantaloupe, Watermelon
LEMONS	Though considered an acid fruit by many, the lemon actually promotes alkalinity. Fresh lemon juice in distilled water (without sweetener) is a safe, easy method for cleansing the kidneys.

Obviously, these charts don’t comprise all food combination possibilities. Multiple food combining books are on the market. If you’d like more information, I’d suggest you surf the net or invest in a book.

Once again, Beloved Reader, we are out of space. Next week, we will close this series with Part 4. Until then:

Remember, it’s your health…your life…live responsibly!

Part 2 of Eating Well…Feeling Satisfied…And Losing Weight!*

By Pam Anderson, DNM, RN, AHNA, CNHP

Since I’ve written last week’s article on the Glycemic Index, the LORD has been dealing with me to delve further with you, Beloved Reader, regarding healthier life-styles. Don’t shut me down yet, Beloved Reader! You won’t hear the old, nagging criticisms of the past…you won’t hear the old “will power” lectures…you will not leave this series feeling condemned. If you stay with me until the end of this series, you will have gained greater insight into positive life-style changes…you will receive “tools” that will “walk” you through the life-style changes you may aspire to implement…you will be empowered through our Precious Holy Spirit to achieve those life-style changes!

Our loving Heavenly Father desires so much for you, Beloved Reader. He yearns for you to prosper and to be healthy in your mind/emotions (soul) and in your body (3 John 1:2). His Word says that He knew you before He laid the foundation of this world (Eph 1:4-6). In Psalm 139:13-16, our loving God makes known it was He who knit you together in your mother’s womb. His Word reveals His desires for you are excellent, too immense for you to number (139:17). And, in His Word, He discloses that His plans for you are good, to give you a future filled with hope (Jeremiah 29:11). Beloved Reader, if our Precious LORD has such noble designs for you and me, He will enable us to achieve those things! Be encouraged, Beloved Reader! Today is a new day in our Precious LORD! The past is in the past, it needn’t step on the heels of your present. In Romans 12:2, your foundation for life-long change is established by the “renewing” of your mind. That is, changing the way you think – thinking as your Precious LORD thinks – will empower you to change old habits and life-styles! Today, Beloved Reader, let’s begin this journey towards health together…you, me and our Precious LORD!

Digestion – The End Result:

The CDC (Center for Disease Control), offers these stats (2006):

· The number of visits to office-based physicians with diseases of the digestive system as the primary diagnosis was: 35.9 million in 2006!

· The number of visits to hospital outpatient departments with diseases of the digestive system as the primary diagnosis was: 3.2million in 2006!

· The number of visits to emergency departments with disease of the digestive system as the primary diagnosis was: 7.2million in 2006!

Can you imagine what those stats for 2008 will be when they are compiled? I don’t know about you, Beloved Reader; but, I don’t want to end up as one of the CDC’s statistics! Therefore, it is critical for you and me to have a better understanding of digestion and its impact upon our health…or lack thereof.

Simply stated, digestion is the mechanical and chemical breaking down of food so it can be absorbed. Anything that is placed in the mouth such as: bread, meat, and vegetables, to nutritional supplements or even medications, are not in a form that the body can use. Each must be changed into smaller molecules before they can be absorbed into the blood and carried to cells throughout the body. Digestion is the process by which these are broken down into their smallest parts so the body can use. Digestion begins in the mouth, when you chew and swallow, and is completed in the small intestine where absorption occurs.

The Digestive System:

The digestive system is made up of the digestive tract—a series of hollow organs joined in a long, twisting tube from the mouth to the anus—and other organs that help the body break down and absorb food (see figure).

Organs that make up the digestive tract are the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine (colon), rectum and anus. The mucosa (lining) of these organs contains glands that produce digestive “juices” that aid digestion. These are released when the correct hormonal influences are received from the brain. The liver and the pancreas also play a vital role in digestion. Each produces digestive “juices” to aid with and in food absorption. The gallbladder’s role is to store bile made by the liver. Only when needed will the gallbladder release the bile. The nervous system, the circulatory system, the endocrine system, the skeletal system and the lymph/immune system all contribute to the overall digestive process.

Tips for Better Digestion:

We can aid our digestive process by observing these tips:

1. Digestibility:

a. Different foods digest at different rates. Eat first those that are faster to digest. Observe the time sequences for different foods below:

i. Water and juices = 20-30 minutes

ii. Fruits, Smoothies, Soups = 30-45 minutes

iii. Vegetables = 30-45 minutes

iv. Beans, grains, starches = 2-3 hours

v. Meat, fish, poultry = 3 or more hours

2. Healthy Eating Pattern:

a. AVOID OVER-CONSUMPTION of food!

b. Eat smaller portions more frequently during the day.

i. Smaller “meals” are easier to digest and utilize than the traditional three daily meals.

c. Portion matters.

i. Your stomach is approximately 10-20 minutes behind your brain. Stop eating before you feel full – within in 10-20 minutes, you’ll be glad you did!

d. Drink warm or hot liquids with your meal.

i. Ice-cold drinks slow down the digestive process

e. Chew food well.

f. Relax while eating.

g. Practice good posture – not just while eating!

h. Avoid late night eating.

i. It is best for digestion if you avoid eating 2-3 hours before bed.

3. Glycemic Index Foods:

a. Low GI foods are slower to digest…thus, you will fill fuller & more satisfied longer

b. Low GI foods keep insulin levels low which reduces fat formation and assists in converting stored fat back into usable energy

4. Proper Food Combining:

a. Aids in preventing digestive upset such as indigestion and flatulence

b. When combining food properly, all seven food groups will be balanced

i. Proteins

ii. Starch

iii. Sugars

iv. Fats

v. Fruits

1. Alkaline and Acidic

vi. Vegetables

vii. Non-Starchy Vegetables

5. Good Posture and Exercise:

a. Practice good posture – not just while eating!

b. Increasing physical activity such as a light walk after eating will aid in jump-starting the digestive process.

c. Spinal twist exercise after eating will help! In a sitting position, turn slowly to the right, allow the left hand to rest on left thigh, right arm at hanging loosely at right side, should slightly back, hold that position while taking 5 deep breaths. Repeat the process for the left side. Repeat once more for each side, beginning with right side.

The space for Part 2 is spent. Next week, we’ll continue with Part 3 of Eating Well…Feeling Satisfied…And Losing Weight!*

Remember, it’s your health…your life…live responsibly!

Eating Well…Feeling Satisfied…And Losing Weight…What?! Tell Me More!

For those who have struggled with weight issues…have tried diets and failed…for those who do not feel “satisfied” after eating…please, read this article! You are not alone. There is help. You can lose weight and still feel satisfied at the same time! How? Read on!

The Glycemic Index:
The Glycemic Index (GI) is the easiest, most satisfying eating plan possible. The GI eating plan adjusts for personal preferences and lifestyles and helps achieve goals for blood glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides levels, blood pressure, and weight management. There is no counting calories or jeopardizing your health* when using the GI as a guide to healthier eating.

WOW! Tell me more!
What Is The Glycemic Index?
The Glycemic Index (GI) is a numerical ranking of carbohydrates based on how they compare to a reference food—either glucose or white bread. The GI uses a scale of 0-100, with higher values given to foods that cause the most rapid rise in blood sugar. Low GI foods have a ranking of 55 or less, medium GI foods will have a ranking of 56-69 and high GI foods will be ranked 69-100. Meats and fats do not contain carbohydrates; therefore, they do not have a GI ranking.

What Affects The GI Of A Food?
Fats and fiber tend to lower the GI of a food. As a general rule, the more cooked or processed a food, the higher the GI; however, as with all rules, this is not always true. Below are a few specific examples of other factors that can affect the GI of a food:
Ripeness and storage time – the more ripe a fruit or vegetable is, the higher the GI
Processing – juice has a higher GI than whole fruit; mashed potato has a higher GI than a whole baked potato, stone ground whole wheat bread has a lower GI than whole wheat bread.
Cooking method: how long a food is cooked (al dente pasta has a lower GI than soft-cooked pasta)
Variety: converted long-grain white rice has a lower GI than brown rice; but, short-grain white rice has a higher GI than brown rice.

Other things to consider if using the GI:
The GI value represents the type of carbohydrate in a food; but, says nothing about the amount of carbohydrate typically eaten. Portion sizes are still relevant for managing blood glucose and for losing or maintaining weight.
The GI of a food is different when eaten alone than it is when combined with other foods. When eating a high GI food, you can combine it with other low GI foods to balance out the effect on blood glucose levels.
Many nutritious foods have a higher GI than foods with little nutritional value. For example, oatmeal has a higher GI than chocolate. Use of the GI needs to be balanced with basic nutrition principles of variety for healthful foods and moderation of foods with few nutrients.

Why Is The GI Important?
Research has shown when blood sugars are kept constant, the body performs better and there is less stress to its systems. If the blood sugar drops too low, a person may become listless and/or experience increased hunger. If the blood sugar goes too high, the brain signals the pancreas to secrete more insulin. Insulin brings the blood sugar down primarily by converting the excess sugar to stored fat. And, the greater the rise of blood sugar, the more chance that your body will release an excess amount of insulin; thus, driving your blood sugar down too low. The goal behind GI is simple: minimize insulin-related problems by identifying and avoiding food that have the greatest effect on blood sugar.

GI Offers Healthy Eating For A Life-Time:
The GI eating plan allows you to adjust it to fit your personal preferences and lifestyle. It is a guide. It does not require eating only low GI foods. While you will benefit from eating low GI foods at each meal, this is not to the exclusion of all others. In fact, when following the GI eating plan, there is an unexpected benefit called the “second meal effect.” This benefit works in this manner: The effect of a low GI food will carry over to the next meal, reducing its glycemic impact. This applies to breakfast eaten after a low GI dinner the night before or to a lunch eaten after a low GI breakfast. Rule of thumb: Balance is the name-of-the-game…make it a goal to have at least one low GI food per meal! So, enjoy baking your own bread or eating the occasional treat. If you combine high GI bakery items with protein food and low GI foods, such as fruit or legumes, the overall GI value will be medium.

Sample GI Chart:
Vegetables:
· Low: Green leafy vegetables, broccoli, tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, and most other veggies are low GI foods.
· High: White potatoes and parsnips are two of the few high GI veggies
Grains:
· Low: Pasta, pumpernickel and rye bread, barley, steel cut oats, all bran cereal
· Medium: Brown rice (steamed), wild rice, buckwheat, old-fashioned oatmeal, tortillas
· High: White flour, most breads, most cold cereals, grits
Beans/Legumes:
· Low: Lentils, garbanzos, pintos and black beans
· Medium: Soymilk, baked beans
Fruit:
· Low: Apple, grapefruit, strawberries, peach, orange
· Medium: Banana, grapes, cantaloupe, mango, kiwi
· High: Fruit juices, canned fruits

There are many books about GI available on the market today. Pick one up. Become more familiar with the ranking system. You can be…and will be…the healthy person you desire to be! Remember, it’s your health…your life…live responsibly!
