Eating Your Way to a Lower Blood Pressure
Dr. Maoshing Ni (Dr. Mao), a Yahoo.com health expert for alternative medicine has tips for what to eat (and what not to eat), when it comes to maintaining a healthy blood pressure level.
It just may turn out that your favorite foods are working wonders for your health and wellness, in more ways than you realize.
Dr. Mao’s cuisine recommendations include fish, cucumbers, and olive oil, for their valuable effects on your circulatory and heart health.
Foods that may raise your blood pressure include salt, refined sugar, and alcohol. Though it’s okay to enjoy these items in moderation, it’s smart to get in the habit of substituting with spices, honey, and plenty of hydrating beverages, such as sparkling water.
Read more of Dr. Mao’s insights here: http://health.yahoo.com/experts/drmao/19535/10-best-and-worst-foods-for-blood-pressure/
Enjoy your favorites, and try some new recipes, but keep in mind that eating healthy is one of the surest paths to increased health and wellness.

Turning Back the Clock
If you’ve reached middle age and your health habits are less than desirable, don’t give up hope. Making a change at this stage of life will yield significant results, and set you on your way to an improved quality of life now, and in your senior years.
Dr. Dana King, a University of South Carolina professor of medicine, is part of a research team whose findings indicate that changing lifelong unhealthy habits in middle age may yield you a longer life.
“It’s not too late,” says Dr. King. “If you make [healthy] changes now, it has a tremendous impact.”
Dr. King and his team colleagues looked at four healthy habits in over 16,000 people between 45 and 64 years of age. Here are the categories they evaluated: eating five or more servings of fruits and vegetables a day, 2.5 hours or more of exercise per week, a healthy weight level, and not smoking.
Dr. King’s research team found that the people who adhered to the four healthy habits were “40 percent less likely to die and 35 percent less likely to suffer heart problems than those who did not adopt the beneficial habits.”

Are you self-conscious about going to the gym?
Check out this quote from the Apria Healthcare website:
“In today’s weight room, you’re as likely to see a grandmother working her glutes as a quarterback working his quads, now that resistance exercise is recognized as vital to building strong muscles and bones.”
Read more here: http://www.apria.com/channels/1,2748,94-193,00.html
Pax’s Prescription Method of Training will show you how weight-resistance training will not only strengthen your muscles, but your heart as well.
Pax didn’t just treat his heart disease – he reversed it. Now his passion is to show others how to do the same. Why? Because it’s completely unnecessary that 50% of people die from Heart Disease or heart related illnesses. Body For The Ages seeks to eliminate this insidious statistic.
Read Pax’s story at www.BodyForTheAges.com. He’s living proof that you can take control of your health, beat heart risks, and have fun in the process.

Hey there Folks,
This is pretty helpful for anyone looking for some background information on the practice of anti-aging and exceeding the average human lifespan: Wiki - Anti-Aging.
We at BODY FOR THE AGES place an emphasis on anti-aging through preventative and rehabilitative Heart Health. We do this utilizing a more holistic / fitness regiment [concentrating on Heart Health and fighting Heart Disease], as opposed to some of the more scientific perspectives that are discussed in this Wiki page.
However we do implement the power of Pyruvate and Protein supplementation, found as a portion of our Online Wellness Program, you may visit us there to learn more about our Nonprofit mission or for direct access visit us at our retail Online Store now offering a 2 for 1 special on Pyruvate and 2 for 1Protein !! Visit and learn how Pyruvate can help you prevent Heart Risks.
until next time,

Pax Beale here.
I am no-nonsense about my passion to work with you as a team. However, my team has no laggards, quitters, or members who believe that “life just happens.”
We believe in the Body for the Ages Wellness Philosophy. Its rewards: a new you, greater self-esteem, and a hell of a lot of fun.
Bet you thought as a bodybuilder, I was going to show men how to put an inch on your arm, or women how to get rid of cellulite.
I want to show you more than that. Together we can change your life. My mission is to attack America’s number one killer: heart disease. And I do it through the Body for the Ages Wellness Philosophy.
But then, there is so much more that comes with it. Learn my protocol, and it can position you to become a millionaire, have success in your field of endeavor (not all life is based on the almighty dollar), to enhance your self-esteem, and/or you can have optimized success, health and happiness.
I’m not going to tell you the need to strangle America’s number one killer: heart disease. I want to show you how to do it.
Once done, it will affect your entire life. In the process I guarantee you will learn weight loss or weight control. I will show you how to get a body of your dreams. You will be exposed to the prospect of a complete, positive, remake of your life, from what you eat, to how you feel when you wake up.
Your life changes and as a by-product, you will reduce or reverse your heart disease risks.
It’s all based on the Body for the Ages Wellness Philosophy.
I’ll leave you this week with a true story. My friend Elaine Pedersen was flying to Portland, Oregon, and on the plane she met former football coach John McKay of the University of Southern California. The USC team was to play Oregon that Saturday. Upon departing, Elaine said to coach McKay, “good luck on Saturday.” The coach turned and paused for a moment. He looked at Elaine and said, “I suppose that has something to do with it.”
The moral of the story: having a plan, like the Body for the Ages Wellness Philosophy is what wins football games, not luck. The same applies in life.
