What is the 50 Million Pound Challenge? It is the challenge for overweight and obese people which was issued by Dr. Ian K. Smith, known for his Fat Smash Diet and role on Celebrity Fit Club. This challenge is a different one in that it is a collective one. Dr. Ian challenges those who accept it to collectively lose 50 million pounds!

Why is this good? First, obesity is a large health risk. Not only do we not look good physically, our health is pretty much in danger all the time. Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and early signs of heart disease are just some of the problems obese people have to face.

Losing weight is not easy. That is why quick weight loss program sell a lot! Losing weight by yourself is hard because there is no one to guide us in doing so. In this challenge, that particular problem is taken care of because Dr Ian gives us the program to follow. And the knowledge that we have “teammates” in doing so definitely will help us.

When you hear or read the word ‘Chi’, you probably remember Tai Chi. A soft form of martial art developed in China which is also a slow meditative physical exercise designed for relaxation and balance and health. The Chi machine revolves on a similar concept. This machine stimulates your Chi (life force energy) and moves the brain into an Alpha state which creates a peaceful, meditative state of calmness, mind/body healing and wellness.

This machine brings multiple benefits such as oxygenation, lymph drainage, detoxification, spinal alignment, mental focus, etc… In other words, it gives us the following:

• Reduction in muscle soreness, tension, stiffness, body aches and pains.
• Improved flexibility of muscles and joints, more limber – spinal alignment.
• Improved function and regulation of internal organs and body systems.
• Improved circulation of the blood – activated lymph drainage and detoxification.
• Alleviation of stress related conditions – headaches, anxiety, depression.
• The brain shifts into a relaxed Alpha brainwave state – mental focus.
• Steady weight loss correction if under or over weight, or menopausal (plus diet adjustment).
• Sound, restful sleep – increased energy, a wonderful sense of well-being.

The Chi machine was created by renowned Japanese scientist Dr. Shizou Inoue and has been the #1 best selling machine for 19 years! It sells for around $480 at www.chimachine4u.com and is available for shipping worldwide.

Do you have a dog? Do you use wormshield to prevent heartworm disease and to treat and control ascarid and hookworm infections in dogs? Well there is news that some have their wormshield being recalled. Why?

The reason for the recall was there was a chance the medicine’s potency wouldn’t last to the expiration date. They also said that 51-100 pound tablets are being recalled and that it is not strong enough for dogs that are 75 pounds or more.

But don’t worry. You just have to bring your dog back into the Banfield you went to, be retested and new medicine will be given with no extra charge. You can call their main number 1-800-838-6738 ext. 1803.

Do you want to know how long you’ve got left to live? That certainly is an interesting question we sometimes are hesitant to answer. No one in his right mind would want to know the exact time he/she will no longer be. However, science says that “life expectancy is influenced by a number of factors, from your family history to your personal lifestyle.” Thus, in the internet, you will see countless life expectancy calculators. However, these won’t give you exact answers(now that’s scary…), just averages.

Here are some of them if you want to try them out:

So what does the health care reform bill actually say? Where can I find the health care reform bill text? The reform bill is 1017 pages long and it would not be wise to post them all here. I will however link you to the online PDF containing the said bill.

Before giving you the link, check out specific hot topics about the bill below:

Health Care Bill Page 58
Health Care Reform Bills
Obamacare Page 838

You can check out the bill either here or here.

We’ve seen the health care bill page 58 and other sorts of controversies around the health care reform. Now, another page is on fire as being a dirty secret of this reform. It is called the Obamacare page 838 secret. Well what does this particular page tell us?

This particular page tells us that the government can come into home and usurp parental rights over child care and development. It’s outlined in sections 440 and 1904 of the House bill (Page 838), under the heading “home visitation programs for families with young children and families expecting children.”

If you want to see the page for yourself, check it out here – Obamacare Page 838(just type in 838 at the bottom box when you reach that page and hit ENTER).
