Migraine
& Tension Headache:Prevention
Breakthrough!
Do you get Migraines? Do you wake up with
a headache. Neck pain or sore jaw muscles? Do you suffer
from sensitive teeth?
The
first clinically proven, non drug method for
the prevention of migraine. The NTI-tss is a small,
virtually invisable mouthpiece that covers only your
upper front teeth while you sleep.
The
NTI-tss must be custom-fitted by a dentist which usually
takes only one 30 minute visit. In a clinical trial
82% of migraine sufferers who used the NTI-tss 8 weeks
had a 77% average reduction in migraine attacks.
The NTI-tss device reduced not only migraine but also
the need for medication usually taken to treat migaine
pain.

Peakology:useful
information and tips thanks to Peak Physique!
with
Brad Sheppard
Would
you like even faster results from your personal training?
If you would, you'll love Peakology. Peakology will
bring you useful information and tips dedicated to enhancing
your life through ground-breaking exercise and nutrition
habits.
So set aside 3 minutes RIGHT NOW to read the following
article and then implement the strategies, it's that
simple! The results start when you do.
Winter Insulation
During
the colder months of the year, we take various strategies
to combat the cold. Rug ourselves up with jumpers, get
in front of a good DVD with the doona over us, stoke
up the fire place with a warm Milo; or increase our
body fat percentage to create that extra insulation.
Body fat creates insulation did I hear you say? …That’s
right! Generally speaking, body fat is a form
of insulation. Therefore the more body fat you have,
the more insulation you have. That is not to say that
the fatter you are the less you feel the cold; everybody
on some level will feel cold, but, Generally speaking,
the leaner you get, the less body fat you have, the
more you will feel the cold.
With this in mind, the colder you are, the more body
fat you will burn. I have heard of several bodybuilders
who will simply immerse themselves in a cold bath for
30mins to increase the amount of body fat they burn.
Keep in mind that we are talking extreme fat loss here
- jumping into an ice cold bath is no substitute for
not doing your cardio and eating right!
So,
your body’s natural tendency is, in periods of colder
temperatures, to store body fat to keep you warm. Then
during these colder months your natural tendency may
be to do the same. If that is the case then recognize
it, and go with it!
If
you are concerned about how this may make you feel,
then be aware of what your body may be trying to do.
Compensate for the fact that your body may be operating
a little differently. This might include understanding
what foods may trigger an increase in body fat with
you and eat less of these foods, or simply do more activity!
Remember
there is always two ways to look at any situation. During
the colder times you could stand around complaining
about the fact that you are cold or you could think
about how you are simply melting away body fat!

Chilblains
Chilblains
are patches of red, swollen and itchy skin, believed
to be caused by a combination of cold weather and poor
circulation. The toes are particularly vulnerable, but
other extremities that can develop chilblains include
fingers, earlobes and the nose. Tight shoes can also
contribute by irritating and pressing on the skin of
the toes, especially the little toe. Despite the discomfort,
chilblains don't cause any permanent damage to tissue.
Not everyone exposed to cold and damp conditions will
develop chilblains, which leads some researchers to
believe that those who do are overly sensitive to changes
in weather and temperature. The elderly, sedentary,
teenagers and people with medical conditions (such as
anaemia) are most susceptible.
Suggestions
for treating chilblains at home include:
-
Resist the urge to scratch, as this will further damage
the skin.
- Use
calamine lotion or witch hazel to soothe the itching.
- Your
chemist may also supply a suitable product.
- Wear
woollen or cotton socks.
- Keep
your whole body warm.
-
Gentle exercise will improve circulation to your feet.
