Reducing Belly Fat

By Matt Furey

It’s amazing but true. Most people get up tired and go to bed tired. Going to bed tired makes some sense – but waking up tired is inexcusable.

How can you be tired when you wake up? You haven’t done anything yet, right?

Okay, perhaps you didn’t get enough hours of sleep. Or perhaps you got enough hours, but it wasn’t restful sleep. Or maybe you’re under stress and that is affecting your energy level.

All of the above is understandable – yet, all can be overcome by taking six simple steps.

1. Instead of thinking “I’m tired” before loping off to bed at night, mentally program yourself for energy. How do you do this? Simply say, “I’m going to wake up totally energized tomorrow.”

2. When you wake up in the morning, immediately focus on the mental image of something you want to do, be, or accomplish.

3. As you focus on this mental picture, tell yourself, “I am going to do everything I set out to do today.” And when you say this to yourself, say it with ENTHUSIASM.

4. After doing that, sit up in bed, pull your feet close to your buttocks and begin to massage the kidney point at the bottom of each foot. Start with your left foot. Massage deeply at least 50 times. Then massage your right foot 50 times.

Doing this will cause your energy level to rise… and fast. Not only that, it is one of the cornerstones to raising your sexual energy to a peak. (This is covered in detail in my course on Chuang Shang de Gong Fu.)

5. When you’re finished massaging both feet, raise your energy further by doing some Hindu squats and Hindu push-ups, as well as some deep breathing (which I teach in Combat Conditioning). You could also try the Magnificent Seven, which attacks the waistline like no other program on the planet.

6. After doing your training, take a cool-to-cold shower. A hot shower is fine to finish up with… but start with the coldest water you can take. It will increase the vital energy in your body in an instant.

 Many find themselves unable to dive into a good night’s sleep for a variety of reasons. Some are uptight about financial concerns right now, others are kept awake thinking about certain relationships. Others just can’t seem to drift off into a good period of rest and don’t know why.

So what are some remedies for these various situations we all find ourselves in from time to time?

Melatonin is a popular remedy to help people fall asleep when the sleep/wake cycle has been disturbed, such as in shift workers or people who are with jet lag.

Melatonin is a hormone found naturally in the body. The pineal gland in the brain makes serotonin which is then converted into melatonin at night when exposure to light decreases.

Melatonin is typically taken about 30 minutes before the desired bedtime. Some experts caution that melatonin should not be used by people with depression, schizophrenia, autoimmune diseases, and other serious illness. Pregnant and nursing women should not use melatonin.

Other remedies include not eating sweets hours before going to bed. Also eliminating caffeine in the afternoon and evening hours has helped many to fall asleep easier.  Eating anything the last two hours before retiring has been found to be another reason some have trouble sleeping

The battle against insomnia may be won through natural ingredients for a long-term benefit according to some of the latest research. As always we encourage everyone to consult with their doctor or alternative medical advisor before making any changes in their health care.

Recently I began having arthritic pain. Now I am not about to rush out and buy drugs like Celebrex or even supplements like glucosamine. Why not go the safe route, even what I would say is the inexpensive way to bring on what might happen to be a remedy.

Here are some suggestions for you to consider:

 1.  Increase Your Intake of C and D.

It is believed by some that Vitamin C slows down the loss of cartilage due to osteoarthritis. Also, if you have not been taking an adequate dosage of Vitamin D, you may be speeding up the progression of osteoarthritis.  Some who take daily normal dosages of Vitamin C and D have seen their arthritis pain drop almost in half.

2.  Eat Grapes.  Resveratrol is a natural compound found in grape skins.  It has the ability sometimes to suppress inflammation at the incident of pain or an injury.  Not only does white or red grapes contain resveratrol, but it has also been found in purple grape juice and wine.

3.  Use Willow Bark.

Willow bark is where aspirin comes from. Another herb called boswellia when taken with willow bark has been found to be effective in reducing inflammation and helping to maintain healthy joints.

4.  Drink Tea.

Green tea is found to be rich in polyphenols, which are compounds that suppress the expressin of a key gene involved in most arthritic inflammation. 

Well, these are just four ways to possibly help inexpensively to reduce the discomfort of arthritic pain. Of course, as always, I recommend that you consult with your health practitioner or doctor before making any changes in how you care for your health.

Recently I read several articles talking about what one could do to be adequately prepared for a food shortage. Of course in America, we have not had the possibility of this kind of situation on our minds since the Great Depression.

So the question begs itself, is there any way that we could truly be facing a food shortage in our country? And how prepared would you be if you witnessed Americans emptying the grocery shelves in fear of a food shortage crisis once the fear of one began to be the main news story of the day?

My grandmother had the skills of one who could store fruits and jams in air-tight jars back in the 40s and 50s. My mother even did a little of it when I was growing up. But now we are far more sophisiticated with what we know about the proper way to can fruits, vegetables, and meat products.

Watch this short video and feel free to leave your comments after you have viewed it. We would love to get your opinion on this matter of a potential food shortage coming to this country.

Be prepared for the coming food shortage.

                                    How Lemon Juice Helps Fevers

Influenza and other acute winter ailments are characterized by fever, which is primarily a constructive activity of the body to fight the invading germs.  However, fever has its price, and this can be partly paid by liberal use of Vitamin C.

Any increase of body temperature greatly increases the need for Vitamin C.  The greater the body heat production, the more Vitamin C is used.

Furthermore, Vitamin C tends to combine with, and so neutralize, toxins, especially those produced by bacterial activity.

This and other factors in fever call for a supply of Vitamin C up to 2 and 3 times the normal requirements.

Lemon juice, in the form of lemonade, as well as other fruit juices rich in Vitamin C are time-honored fever remedies.

Vitamin B1 Broths May Help in Fever

The profuse sweating in fever may tend to drain the tissues and blood of the water-soluble Vitamins B1 and C.  Fruit juices supply both water and Vitamin C, but certain broths help in another way.

Fever brings on an increased body metabolism, more rapid heart action, and greater cell activity.   Vitamin B1 tends to sustain the heart action in fever and increase the tolerance for additional body heat.

The use of broths made from Vitamin B1-rich foods, including the pot liquors rich in this factor, is particularly desirable in fever.

How Milk, Fruits and Vegetables May Help in Fever

Fever hastens the breakdown of body tissues and so increases the acid residue. Thus there is a greatly increased demand for alkaline reserves.

Unfortunately, the so-called light foods, so often stressed for fever patients, are apt to be the acid-forming ash foods to help neutralize the acid residues that are increased in fever. 

These foods are chiefly milk, fruits and vegetables.  Fever usually causes intense calorie consumption.  This is best compensated for by the use of as many alkaline foods as possible –cooked fruits and fruit juices, pureed vegetables, etc.

Milk and Eggs Are Needed

There may be a severe destruction of the proteins in body tissues in fever.  The protein foods chosen to nourish the fever patient should consist of those richest in the Class A (essential) proteins.  Milk, cottage cheese and eggs are particularly indicated, for they supply high grade proteins and additional protective vitamin factors.

Ease of digestibility should be the watchword in preparation of these foods.  Souffles, custards and lightly cooked egg dishes are preferred.

The glandular meats, especially liver, are also “must” requirements.  Prepare chopped beef steak patties, or meat loaves mixed with chopped kidney, heart or sweetbreads for those who dislike the glandular meats.  These are preferable to chicken, lamb and other muscle meats during mild fevers.

Salt in Fever

The excessive sweating which may accompany fever tends to drain the body and blood of salt (sodium chloride).  For this reason, broths, soups and appropriate dishes given to fever patients should be suitably seasoned  with salt.

As a young boy growing up, I vividly remember my mom telling me about a doctor in Dallas who was curing people of cancer. He would treat his patients, but with one condition, and that was that they would not tell anyone what he had done.

Now before you get skeptical, let me share with you what I recently heard and then validated. While Ronald Reagan was president in 1985, he discovered that he had cancer. So did he rush to the AMA to get the best treatment? No, of course not. He knew the best treatment was not with anything that the AMA offered, the routines of chemo and radiation. Yuck!

I lost my younger brother a few years ago at the age of 52. He had lung cancer that spread to his liver. He worked at a hospital and chose to go the chemo and radiation route and unfortunately we lost him about three months later. He was not open to anyone’s opinion other than the resident cancer doctor’s treatment where he worked.

Back to President Reagan. He went to Germany to get a treatment that healed him. Farrah Fawcett also looked into German treatments. I don’t have all the facts to go into details about what her experience was, but she reportedly videotaped her entire battle with cancer in order to help others. Farrah was courageous enough to seek out some alternative cancer treatment rather than depend solely on the traditional route that has showed almost zero improvements in cancer patients struggles.

Well, that brings us to the latest and very inexpensive way to battle not only cancer but many other diseases. Lupus, bronchitus, gum disease, parasitic infections, Parkinson’s disease, lumphoma, aids, cirrhosis of the liver, sore throats, diabetes typeII, emphysema, and even such regular irritating sicknesses like the flu have all been subdued by this latest discovery. And the list above is just a few of the ones that have been defeated.

Actually, it has been used in other parts of the world for more than a century, but we have had it suppressed here in the U.S. for the obvious reasons, it is cheap to apply and it doesn’t require a doctor to get the treatment.

Now before I give you the access to the specifics of this treatment, I have to say as always, that you should contact your medical doctor or health practitioner if you are thinking about making a change in your health care.

I am not a medical doctor and am only steering you toward something that has cured many people of a multitude of diseases and the purpose of this treatment is to help your body to do it’s job of fighting off these vicious diseases that we all have heard something about or known someone who suffered from them.

So here is the next step for you if you are pursuing a very inexpensive but effective way to build up your immunity while subduing and defeating many of these diseases:
