Rheumatoid Arthritis… The Deadly Disease!
When people think of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), they often picture somebody with a few aches and pains… no big deal. If they have had a family member affected or seen people with the disease, they may also fear the crippling and deforming effects of the illness.
The reality though, is RA is an extremely serious condition that affects the entire body.
Of grave concern are the mortality statistics associated with the disease. Severe rheumatoid arthritis can shorten life expectancy by 10-15 years! A study conducted by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta looking at data accumulated from 1965 to 1990 demonstrated that patients with RA have a mortality ratio of 2.26 compared to the general population. That means they are more than twice as likely to die!
Rheumatoid arthritis is considered a systemic disease… one that affects many organ systems. For instance, inflammation of the cricoarytenoid joints- the vocal cords- is a common finding. And the lungs also may be affected early on. The initial manifestations may be subtle but as the disease progresses, the lungs can become so diseased that the To Read More Click Here

Get That Healthy Bodybuilding Nutrition From Your Backyard
What better way to get fresh fruits and vegetables for your bodybuilding nutrition plan than growing them yourself! You can do this even if your garden is small, just like I did.
I disposed of approximately 80 square feet of planting space which I covered with geotextile - landscape fabric. Next, I pinned it down with some scraps of wood which also had the purpose of controlling any weeds that might want to surface. Then I added enough topsoil (a small truck load of low quality earth) to cover what was going to become my garden patch, taking care of smoothing the topsoil by breaking up the clods of dirt. Finally, I bordered my small garden so the soil wouldn’t be washed away, using pieces of old concrete from my next door neighbor who was redoing the driveway, but you can use bricks, wood or any other material suitable for borders.
Now you are all set for planting but what to buy? You can opt to buy seedlings - small plants of your favorite vegetables or buy the seeds and plant them directly into the soil. Seeds can be bought pretty cheap. I’ve narrowed my selection this year to onions, corn, squash, cucumbers, and To Read More Click Here

Natural Bodybuilders - How To Remain Healthy This Christmas
With the holidays come two things that can hinder your fitness and health progress: extra food that may or may not be healthy and judgmental, sensitive family members. They say for any noble pursuit, there are tough obstacles you must beat. And during the holidays, sometimes the remarks and comments about your new eating plan is worse than the tempting food itself. So, to help natural bodybuilders like you handle the holidays better and remain healthy, here are some helpful tips.
1. HAVE A CHEATING PLAN
Unless you’re so disciplined, or so sensitive like me to junky foods, it would be tough to tell yourself you’re not going to cheat at all, because then if you do slip up, you may feel guilty, then get upset with yourself, and then just say, ” I’ve already cheated, so now I might as well go all the way.” That’s not what we want, so that is why you should say something like, “Okay, I’ll have a small serving of stuffing, and half a slice of apple pie. And that’s it.” That’s more realistic, and therefore more doable.
