Now it is our duty to protect this gift. If nature is not properly used and protected, we put ourselves and our next generation into peril. So use of nature and natural products should be made with wisdom. It is also true in the case of manufacture of toys.<br /><br />Care of child:<br /><br />It is the duty of every soul in this world to care for the child. He is our successor. The care of his health is of utmost importance. In order to make the child industrious, we provide him with many toys. Unfortunately many of these toys are made of materials like plastic, fibers, etc. which are chemical based products. These products are known to affect the tender skin of the baby. Attracted by the pleasing color of these toys, the toddler puts these products in his mouth and as a result he gets infected. These products are known to be storehouses of many serious diseases. So the child is laid down with serious ailments. His future is affected. Ultimately we have failed in taking proper care of the baby.<br /><br />Remedy:<br /><br />The remedy is to stop providing such toys which are manufactured using artificial materials like plastic, etc. Instead, replace these with organic and eco-friendly toys. They do not harm the child. These toys are manufactured using natural materials. They are as attractive as artificial toys. Advantages of organic toys:<br /><br />As they are made of natural material without any artificial lining around them, they are totally safe for the child. Of course, they cost little more than their counterparts; artificial toys. But looking at the long range benefit, anyone will be willing to pay more. They are free from all sorts of toxic materials. They can be used for longer period of time. They can be repaired and reused. But in any form they are eco friendly. If there is a need to discard these toys, they can be put back on the road; nature will accept them. For example toys made of wood, cotton cloth, clay toys are all eco friendly; when they are discarded in the open, they in no way harm the nature or the neighborhood. But it is not so in case of artificial toys. There are many examples of many electronic gadgets yet to be disposed off because they cannot be thrown in the open for fear of causing environmental hazard. </p><div style="background-color: rgb(227, 226, 226);

If you didn't immediately answer yes to each of those questions than a professional community association Management Company could be of service to your board. One more thing to consider is with your homeowner association board is not just do you have the experience, though do you have the time.<br /><br />Unless your homeowner association board is made of fulltime board members which it probably is not, you have other responsibilities to your own business or employment that take priority for your time. This is why hiring a community management company is so important. That way you have a fulltime staff working to run your community.<br /><br />One of the most beneficial items from using a professional community management team is operational budgets. The process of having a detailed and accurate budget for board members to make decisions from is crucial to community success. Since management companies with extensive experience have created many successful budgets the difference in accuracy is immense. With realistic budgets and planning your board members can feel confident that they are making the right decisions for their residents. Management services can guide board members through operational challenges that will arise no matter how detailed planning is. The biggest mistake most homeowner association boards make is a lack of a consistent communication process to updates and how the challenge will be solved.<br /><br />When all community processes are handled by trained fulltime staff your community can run smoothly and it makes you look good for your residents. The reality is that most home owners only notice their association board when there are issues. The best boards are the ones that the residents don't even think about.<br /><br />Have you ever been frustrated with new board members? Not that they are not bright and highly accomplished people, though they lack the experience of how your board and community works. Professional community management companies should have experience in how to train new board members into effective decision members that can contribute faster to their respected development.<br /><br />The part that most residents notice the most is the up keep around the properties. Making sure that every person or business responsible is delivering can be overwhelming. The most effective community management companies have systems in place to organic and manage each community to keep property values and impressions up.<br /><br />Just think if your homeowner association board is having any issues that professional community management could take care of. Less head aches and smoother management makes being on a association board more enjoyable and effective. </p><div style="border: 1px solid lightblue; padding: 10px; background-color: rgb(227, 226, 226); width: 470px; text-align: left; margin-top: 40px; margin-bottom: 40px;"> Parker Finch specializes in <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://www.parkerfinch.com/">professional community management</a> with <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://www.parkerfinch.com/24-Hour-Day-Access-to-Online-HOA-Services---Parker-Finch%7E33138%7E10879.htm">online resident services</a> for home owners. </div>Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-89851098300107658942010-01-18T13:03:00.000-08:002010-01-18T13:04:05.664-08:00Paper Bags or Plastic bags: Every Thing You Need to Know<p> You may not know that the question of paper or plastic is a far bigger question for eco friendly conscious people than you would think. The use of plastic bags is much more rampant in the market than paper bags because of many reasons and one such reason is that the cost of plastic bags is much less than the paper bags.<br /><br />Manufacturing of Paper Bags:<br /><br />The manufacturing of paper bags is a long and complicated process. These bags are made from the trees and they have their <a href="http://www.ecocleaninggreen.com/">environmental cost</a> as well. The use of trees for making these bags is not good for the environment and the forest habitat. This results into long run damage to the ecology. Also the cutting down of trees and carrying them to the manufacturing units requires the use of heavy machinery and the transportation then consumes much of the fuel. After these trees reach the desired place, there is a long process of drying the trees and extracting the pulp, then bleaching and washing of the pulp and adding the color, etc. This whole process requires a lot of resources which can be otherwise utilized for <a href="http://www.biggesttickettowealth.com/">better reasons</a>.<br /><br />After Use of Paper bags:<br /><br />There are different possibilities like either you can compost them or throw them or you can recycle these bags. The recycling is again a complicated and tricky process and requires the use of a lot of resources again.<br /><br />Manufacturing of Plastic Bags:<br /><br />Plastic bags are made completely differently from the paper bags. Plastic bags are the side products of oil and are produced by the refining process of oil. The big resource input which is used in the production of plastic bags is the energy in the form of electricity.<br /><br />Recycling of the Plastic Bags:<br /><br />Plastic bags are recycled but it is not an easy process and requires the melting and casting of the plastic again. This is also an energy consuming process and after the recycling, the quality of the plastic gets hard and this cannot be recycled again.<br /><br />Which bag to use: Paper or Plastic?<br /><br />The comparison between these two bags can be made by looking at the energy consumption, environment emissions and all other costs of recycling and production. According to some statistics, plastic bags are better as they consume less amount of energy and other air emissions while paper bags consume more resources than the plastic bags.<br /><br />So to support the go green cause, the bags which consume less of the resources should be used. </p><div style="border: 1px solid lightblue; padding: 10px; background-color: rgb(227, 226, 226); width: 470px; text-align: left; margin-top: 40px; margin-bottom: 40px;"> Natures Organic Market offers the best prices on <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://www.naturesorganicmarket.com/">organic products </a>including <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://naturesorganicmarket.com/organic-tea-white-tea-c-92_93.html">organic white tea</a>. </div>Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-47501318399485748122009-11-03T11:48:00.000-08:002009-11-03T11:50:27.686-08:00More Milk Plus Organic MotherLove Increase Breast Milk for Breastfeeding Moms<object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/TzQJOZtXqfs&hl=en&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/TzQJOZtXqfs&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="http://naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=29_64&products_id=228">More Milk Plus</a> by MotherLove an organic supplement to increase breast milk production for breastfeeding mothersLive Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-66804190331813585112009-10-17T21:55:00.000-07:002009-10-17T21:56:29.567-07:00Do 100% Organic Skin Care Products Exist?<p> Organic Products - The Present Scenario<br /><br />"Going Organic" seems to be the new buzzword. Whether its Hollywood celebrities or The National Geographic, everyone is talking about how to go green and switch to organic products. So, while you are browsing the endless brands of lotions and creams on the supermarket shelf, you choose only the ones that say 'organic' or 'natural.' You go home in peace thinking you did your job, you choose right and you have nothing to worry about. Right? Well, we suggest, think again. Hundreds of organic skin care products are flooding the global skin care market every day. The credibility definitely becomes questionable.<br /><br />The Organic Catch<br /><br />Many of us become the target to the shrewd marketing gimmicks of skincare products manufacturing companies that mislead consumers by claiming to be organic, while the truth is harshly far from it. Most skin care products that declare themselves as being Organic, in reality may merely have a few organic ingredients blended with preservatives and chemical agents. Unfortunately, the loophole is in the system, since there is no rule what so ever, restricting companies from labeling their products as 'Natural' or 'Organic.'<br /><br />Organic Skin Care Products - The Concept<br /><br />The basic difference between an ordinary skincare product and an organic skincare product is that the organic products are made with organically grown ingredients. Therefore, unlike conventionally cultivated materials, which are exposed to harmful chemical fertilizers and pesticides, organically grown materials are toxin free.<br /><br />Organic Skin Care Products - Some Facts<br /><br />When a skin care product is certified as 'Organic,' it generally contains 95% organic ingredients and 5% of inorganic materials, which belong to an approved National List.<br /><br />When a product is certified as 'Made from Organic Ingredients,' it means it contains only 70% of organic ingredients and the other 30% contains inorganic materials from the approved National List.<br /><br />Organic Purchase - The Pre-requisites<br /><br />Taking into consideration all the facts it can be said that 100% pure organic products may not really exist. Still, we can definitely find the next best things for us. A few things to keep in mind before buying any organic products:<br /><br />Read the Ingredients Carefully - If you cannot even pronounce a chemical's name, it maybe that it should not be there. If you are unsure about the ingredients, browse through the internet to find more information on them. Fact sheets on most chemicals can be found easily, online.<br /><br />No Additives - True organic products should not contain any artificial colors, synthetic dyes, artificial fragrances, or preservatives.<br /><br />Check Certification - Check for USDA (United States Departments of Agriculture) seal or ACO (Australian Certified Organic) logo on the products. </p><div style="border: 1px solid lightblue; padding: 10px; background-color: rgb(227, 226, 226); width: 470px; text-align: left; margin-top: 40px; margin-bottom: 40px;"> Natures Organic Market offers flat rate shipping on <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=29_64&products_id=228">More Milk Plus</a>, <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=92_112">Organic Iced Tea</a>, and organic products. </div>Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-91728622008830192502009-10-15T22:05:00.000-07:002009-10-15T22:06:53.091-07:00Organic Teddy Bear for Eco Safe Playtime for Your Kids<object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/PYNfHps2bVo&hl=en&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/PYNfHps2bVo&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"></embed></object><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_109&products_id=345">Organic Teddy Bear</a>Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-89389725480715004702009-10-13T15:54:00.001-07:002009-10-13T15:54:57.125-07:00Is There Ultra Violet (UV) Sun Rays Free Tranning<p> Ultra Violet (UV) Rays are reportedly the leading cause of skin cancer and the <a href="http://www.workhomecompany.com/">biggest source</a> of annoyance for the tan lovers. For people who want that glamorous tan through cosmetic or medical purposes involving prolonged exposure to the UV rays, indoor tanning solutions are the best options. The good news is that these indoor UV free tanning agents, available as creams, sprays, or lotions, produce very similar results as sun tanning, without subjecting your skin to the harmful UV rays of the sun. In addition, these agents achieve the results in much lesser time than the traditional means. Following are the main types of UV free tanning products:<br /><br />Products with DHA<br /><br />Dihydroxyacetone or DHA is an active tanning agent, which is used in a broad range of products these days. It is considered a safe ingredient, as it functions by chemically reacting with the amino acids of the 'dead' cells in the epidermal layer of the skin. This also explains why such kind of tanning diminishes with time. The 'tanned' dead cells of the Epidermis are shed off and are replaced by new cells over a period.<br /><br />Canthaxanthin products<br /><br />Canthaxanthin finds key use as a synthetic food color, although, now a days it is being used as an oral tanning agent as well. FDA has not approved its latter use, since for tanning purposes, much larger quantity of Canthaxanthin is required than that in its use as a coloring additive in edibles. Moreover, this substance deposits itself below the epidermal layer and is linked to serious medical conditions, such as hepatitis, adverse effect on digestive system, and skin damage.<br /><br />Melanotan products<br /><br />A synthetic form of Melanotan hormone has also been found effective in creating a tanned look without exposure to UV rays. The hormone is taken as an injection. The use of Melanotan hormone is still in the stage of clinical trials and is not available commercially.<br /><br />Bronzers<br /><br />These are considered the safest tanning option, as they produce an effect, which is totally superficial and washable. However, they suffer from similar disadvantages as cosmetic makeup. Bronzers should be applied very carefully and in an optimum quality, as they carry a risk of being smudged onto the clothing. It is always advisable to test for possible staining before putting on your clothes.<br /><br />UV free tanning can be done in a spa, tanning booth, or at home. If you are trying the products at home, you need to follow these steps for effective tanning:<br /><br />Take a bath.<br /><br />Exfoliate your skin.<br /><br />Shave for a smoother tan.<br /><br />Dry your skin completely.<br /><br />Choose a place, which is cool so that you do not sweat during your tanning session.<br /><br />Use a convenient form like lotion or spray.<br /><br />Take someone else help if needed, especially for the hard to reach areas.<br /><br />Do not take a bath or shower immediately after tanning. Depending upon the type of product, you may have to wait anywhere between 2 hours and 8 hours. </p><div style="border: 1px solid lightblue; padding: 10px; background-color: rgb(227, 226, 226); width: 470px; text-align: left; margin-top: 40px; margin-bottom: 40px;"> Save On Tans offers <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://www.authorityseo.com/">discount tanning</a> for your <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://www.saveontans.com/bookatan/">local tanning salon</a>. </div>Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-29961492413847344182009-10-01T10:04:00.001-07:002009-10-01T10:04:58.287-07:00Going green - how do you know if a product is green?<p> If you want to help the environment and go green, here are some tips to get you started. Why go green at all? What exactly is green? How do you know which items to purchase? There are many people out there looking to cash in on the green fad. How to shop safely.<br /><br />So, do you really want to do your part? Do you want to help the environment, the economy and future generations? Everyone is going green these days and it's a good thing. It shows that people are becoming more conscious of their impact on the world around them. There are so many things that our society wastes. We waste food, water, building materials such as wood from trees and many many more. It's disgusting when you think about all of that money wasted. Think of the time that's wasted too. If you don't change the way you live and shop - you will be leaving the world in a terrible state for future generations.<br /><br />Do you want to go green? What exactly is going green? What exactly makes a product a green product? If you check the label or item description from the manufacturer - you should see no harmful chemical. All of the ingredients and materials should be easily found in the earth. They should be made using natural processes. Don't buy products that were made in a lab using all kinds of nasty substances. Going green means saying no to harmful toxins and unsafe chemicals in your home or workplace.<br /><br />Green products must be made using methods that are environmentally friendly. There's more to going green than just leaving out toxic chemicals. We must use methods to produce our goods and services that are sustainable. Think about some of the factories you have seen. They produce a lot of items. They also produce a lot of waste material. It seems like madness when you really think about it. There is absolutely no reason to be spending more just to produce less. Don't let the big guys at the top play with your future, just so they can make a few quick dollars. Green products are products that are good for the earth, the economy and everyone on it. If this isn't true about a product that a manufacturer is offering - it's not green. Don't buy it!<br /><br />Go green and do your part for our environment. </p><div style="border: 1px solid lightblue; padding: 10px; background-color: rgb(227, 226, 226); width: 470px; text-align: left; margin-top: 40px; margin-bottom: 40px;"> Natures Organic Market has low prices on <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=2_109">organic toys</a>, <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=92_112">organic iced tea</a>, and more. </div>Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-8195029244483844402009-09-29T10:59:00.000-07:002009-09-29T11:00:21.764-07:00Taking Laxatives and Birth Control Pills<p> A common problem affecting people in the present day sedentary lifestyle is Constipation. It is not therefore surprising to see how hugely popular laxatives are. Laxatives are drugs, food items, or any other lubricant substance, used to stimulate bowel movements, mostly to treat constipation. While Laxatives help remove the undigested food material present in the colon and large intestine, their high dosage can result in diarrhea.<br /><br />The link between the use of laxatives and birth control pill effectiveness<br /><br />There is not enough medical evidence on the direct link between the use of laxatives and the effectiveness of birth control pills. However, as a general understanding, if laxatives cause diarrhea, they may hamper the effectiveness of the birth control pill on the body. There is a possibility of getting pregnant then, as the pill may not be absorbed the way it would have, if one did not have laxatives induced diarrhea and vomiting. It has been observed that if there is vomiting within two hours of taking the pill, one should consider it as a missed pill. In addition, if one has three or more loose bowel motions for a couple of days, the efficacy of the pills may decline.<br /><br />The Castor example: A laxative and birth control measure<br /><br />Castor seeds are used to produce Castor oil, which while being a strong laxative, also has the ability to induce labor in pregnant women. Given this potential ability of stimulating the uterus, it may also give the effects of a birth control mechanism. Although the effects are not proven, there is a possibility of research in its effectiveness both, as a birth control method and a laxative.<br /><br />Healthier alternatives<br /><br />While the exact link between birth control pills and laxatives is not yet proven, it is important to understand that taking laxatives for a long period is not a great idea, and is certainly not good for your intestines. What may start as a cure for mild constipation can turn out to be a vicious cycle of over dependence on laxatives! If constipation is troubling you and you take birth control pills, it may be a better idea to improve your overall lifestyle than relying on laxatives.

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has introduced a few national standards that need to be met before companies can use the term "organic" for their food items. Any product labeled 'Organic' assures that it is created without the use of artificial hormones, antibiotics, pesticides, bio energy, or irradiation. The farmers involved in the agriculture of organic foods are not only required to abide by certain water and soil conservation mechanisms, but also need to give a benign treatment to animals.<br /><br />The Definition of Organic<br /><br />It may be strange yet interesting to note that marking a food item as organic does not necessarily indicate that the food is healthful and nutritive. The USDA does not claim that food produced organically has more salubrious benefits than conventional food, but it does assure that such foods do not contain any pesticides or harmful chemicals. Therefore, the picky consumers, who pay a lot of heed to nutritional values of everything they eat, are still required to read labels attentively in order to decide how nutritious their diet is going to be. Another interpretation conveys that the term 'organic' does not mean 'natural.' All it means is that USDA has approved the food.<br /><br />USDA's Steps towards Creating Organic Foods<br /><br />These days, the USDA makes the use of state and private agencies in order to carry out inspections on food companies to certify them to market organic foods. However, all the farmers making less than $5000 through organic sales are exempted from the process of certification. They do however, have to comply with the latest standards of the government and be veracious about their claims for organic label. A fine, as large as $10,000, can be issued upon the companies and individuals, who try to label or sell a product, which does not meet the USDA standards.<br /><br />The Benefits of Organic Foods over Conventional Foods<br /><br />The best thing about organic foods is that they comprise of less amounts of minerals. Most of the other foods contain heavy metals, detrimental to our health in the end. These metals include aluminum, which is responsible for Alzheimer's disease; Mercury, which causes neurological damage; and lead, the mental implications of which are known to affect children's IQ adversely.<br /><br />Therefore, in a world where nothing can be trusted for complete purity, the consumption of foods, certified as organic can certainly define your path towards a healthier lifestyle. </p><hr /> Natures Organic Market offers high quality <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=37">organic skin care</a>, <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=58">organic coffee</a>, and more.Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-73353712274324863782009-08-28T22:26:00.000-07:002009-08-28T22:28:25.440-07:00How Does Organic Food Affect Your Body<p> Present day health conscious people are attracted more towards natural living fundamental, which includes organic foods as well.

According to an article in the Journal of Applied Nutrition, <a href="http://modern-organic.blogspot.com/2008/10/how-is-organic-coffee-produced.html">organic foods</a> are nearly the best ones in the terms of nutritional quality.<br /><br />Nutrients content of organic foods<br /><br />Haves: Some of the rich nutrients, largely available in organic health items are:<br /><br />Chromium - A micro-nutrient, found less in conventional food. Its deficiency may cause diabetes and atherosclerosis in adults.<br /><br />Selenium - An antioxidant micro-nutrient, which protects from cancer, heart disease, and environmental chemical<br /><br />Calcium - A mineral required for strong bones and teethes<br /><br />Boron - This trace element prevents osteoporosis<br /><br />Lithium - Good for the treatment of certain level of depression<br /><br />Magnesium - Decreases the death rate, caused due to heart attacks and eases the symptoms of PMS<br /><br />Vitamins - They are necessary for the body in limited supply for its proper functions and its protection against toxins.

An alternate way of saying this would be that indoor tanning lotions are a way to lower the risks associated with other ways of getting a tan. If you compare the do it yourself sunless tanners, lotions are a good way to go.<br /><br />The Ultra Violet (UV) rays from the sun that penetrate the skin on a daily basis can cause skin cancer due to over exposure. Another issue people face when they spend too much time in the heat without enough water is the risk of heat stroke. Those who lay out in the sun need to watch their skin for spots or other unusual signs, like a blister that doesn't seem to heal.<br /><br />The same goes for tanning booths which can be very dangerous to someone who does not have experience with them, especially if they are <a href="http://modern-organic.blogspot.com/2009/04/best-protein-sources-for-vegetarians.html">fair skinned</a> and sun sensitive. Some of the settings on the beds will fry you as badly as the sun ever could.<br /><br />Tanning pills are not very popular and in the past have not worked that well. They have high levels of coloring agents that may color the iris or even cause hepatitis.<br /><br />Another DIY tanning option is a bronzer which is like a cosmetic. When it is applied it stains your skin and stays on until the next time you shower.<br /><br />Tanning lotions are a longer lasting alternative that can last close to a week depending on how quickly your replace your dead skin cells.<br /><br />In many cases, your tan actually looks more natural than laying out in the sun for hours because it can turn out more even and smooth. Also, you don't have to worry about the tan lines of your fancy bathing suit. But the more important benefit of an indoor tanning lotion is the safety from avoiding exposure to harsh light rays.<br /><br />In the case of a professional tanner like bodybuilders, they are well aware that a good lotion will help their skin keep its youthful vibrant look, minimize fine lines and wrinkles, develop and maintain a world class tan while rehydrating their skin and replenishing the lost moisture.<br /><br />Some advice for those unsatisfied with that fair skin look, is to realize the health risks of tanning under UV rays, get yourself a good indoor tanning lotion, and enjoy the benefits without the risks. </p><hr /> Don't miss the indoor tanning lotions at <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://www.worldclassnutrition.com/">http://www.worldclassnutrition.com/</a>Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-18636183152277752672009-06-22T15:55:00.000-07:002009-06-22T15:57:00.779-07:00What are the styles of a simple wedding dress<p> While many brides would love to have a dramatic wedding dress, there are others who are uncomfortable with too many embellishments and would like to opt for a simple wedding dress. The problem these days is that the styles that are in vogue have too much detailing. They call for a whole lot of embellishments, lace, sequins and flounces, which may not be what you as a bride would want. If this is the <a href="http://authorityseo.ning.com/">case you need</a> to go for the classic, simple and elegant sort of wedding dress.<br /><br />In the current economic slump it makes sense to keep it simple. Many brides prefer to keep their wedding dress simple, not because of any constraints but simply because they see themselves as simple women. Simple does not mean un-trendy but simple does mean devoid of any kind of fuss. The simple wedding dress need <a href="http://weddinggowns.jimdo.com/">not be unfashionable</a> or dowdy. Of course it will not be having detailing. It will avoid layering, flounces, frills, ribbons, beading, crystal work, embroidery or any other fancy stuff. But then, perhaps you would not like to walk down the aisle wearing something that looks like rolls of lace and sequins wrapped around your body. You can achieve a classic, understated and chic effect with the right cut of the dress and the right fabric.<br /><br />A simple wedding dress can be classy, feminine and elegant. Modern fashion is all-encompassing. Today's bride can choose from a wide range of styles to select the dress that is perfect for her wedding day. A simple style does not have to be dowdy. It can lay stress on the fabric of the garment, the cut and the fall. It can play with texture and color for the perfect look.<br /><br />The traditional wedding dress has been white in color. Over the years brides have experimented with the white color and used cream, egg-shell, ecru and pearl. However in the recent years, brides have also started using non-traditional colors like purple, pink, and others for their wedding dress. If you do not want to wear white, you have a range of colors to choose from.<br /><br />If you do not want to spend too much on your wedding dress, you can get yourself a simple gown (a prom dress would also do) and invest the rest of your money on classy jewelery. After all jewelery is a great investment, and the dress is worn only once. The main point to remember here is that the entire ensemble should be balanced. The dress should be simple yet elegant and the jewelery adds the sparkle. So chose your jewelery for the occasion with care.<br /><br />Select the style and cut of your simple wedding dress carefully. For a tall slim figure a sheath is wonderful. This also complements a petite figure. Simple Silhouette is a style that accentuates the curves and is very elegant. Select a neckline and other details to emphasize the accessories and jewelery.<br /><br />If you have a perfect hourglass figure, it can be accentuated with a two piece and corset style of dress. It can be very simple, with clean unbroken line, accentuating the waist. The Empire wasted wedding dress is ideal for a bride who has a fuller waist. Again this style does not need any lace or flounces. Even the layering can be minimized or done away with. This can be worn with heavy jewelery that takes away the attention from the body shape.<br /><br />For a pear shaped figure, the A-line cut is a wonderful way to camouflage the full hips. It is figure hugging at the waist and bust and flows in simple lines over the lower body. Of course, you can browse the design catalog for the best way to style it. It can be with sleeves or with noodle straps. It could also be backless. You will be the best judge of the design suitable for you.<br /><br />There is a wide array of fabrics to choose from. Select a fabric that is best suited for the style of your dream dress, keeping in mind the fact that you have chosen not to embellish it in any way. Silk is the traditional choice of brides. It is natural, strong and durable and has a shine. Silk today is woven with other materials to give you a wide variety of fabrics like duchess satin, shantung, Carmelle etc. You could also use velvet, Georgette, taffeta or even chiffon for your simple wedding dress. Keep in mind that the design of the dress is simple so the fabric and cut should be perfect to emphasize your beauty. </p><hr /> Bridal Online Store offers the most selection and best prices for <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://www.bridalonlinestore.com/">wedding dresses</a> and <a onmousedown="'return" href="http://www.bridalonlinestore.com/Collection/beach.asp">beach wedding dresses</a>.Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-931774466521669462009-05-31T21:08:00.000-07:002009-05-31T21:10:04.774-07:00Online Fitness Saves Money at the Pump<div class="summary"><img src="http://www.free-press-release.com/img_new/left_quote_free.gif" /> <h2 class="font_news_summary_free" style="display: inline;">Online Personal Trainer Programs are becoming popular do to high gas prices.</h2> <img src="http://www.free-press-release.com/img_new/right_quote_free.gif" /><br /><br />For_Immediate_Release:<br /><br />United States of America (Press Release) May 2, 2008 --<br />With high gas prices, online personal training and fitness has become a vehicle of choice for people looking to lose weight and get into shape. LiveLeanToday.com has seen an increase in memberships to their online personal trainer <a href="http://authorityseo.ning.com/">programs</a> as people do not want to spend the extra gas to drive to the gym.<br /><br />Online fitness training offers two benefits to the cash depleted American do to high gas prices. First, the cost of having professional health and fitness support online is much smaller than even most gym memberships. When you add a personal trainer in person on top of that the savings is exceptional. An average personal trainer cost $500-$1,000 a month plus the gym membership, while at LiveLeanToday.com you can have a <a href="http://early-bird-coffee.blogspot.com/">complete program</a> with an online personal trainer for $69.95 a month.<br />source: FPR<br /><br /><br />The second benefit to online fitness<br />is that you can do the workouts from home. Besides the money that people need to save because of high gas prices, you can use less gas by working out at home with professional instruction. Most people don’t realize with professional instruction and a limited supply of fitness equipment you can achieve your health and fitness goals without going to the gym.<br /><br />For more information:<br /><br />Visit our website: <a href="http://www.liveleantoday.com/" class="link_untitled6" target="_blank">http://www.liveleantoday.com</a><br /></div><input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"><div id="refHTML"></div>Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-64370425228056431292009-05-14T07:38:00.001-07:002009-05-14T07:38:52.009-07:00Animal Pak Zero Side Effects Complete Multivitamin Review<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/SM4w12U4itE&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/SM4w12U4itE&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-87037378839074354162009-04-21T17:07:00.000-07:002009-04-21T17:08:43.529-07:00Exercise, Good Nutrition, Supplementation = Fat Loss<p> We know here at LIVE that exercise is the most effective method for instantly boosting metabolism. When weight loss is desired, combining exercise, proper diet and use of appropriate supplements naturally leads to maximum <a href="http://keep-doctor-away.blogspot.com/">metabolic efficiency</a> and the greatestg chance of results.<br /><br />Both are absolutely essential. Effective diet which can include supplement intake should be your No. 1 priority. Here's why: Both your ability to exercise and your exercise results will naturally accelerate in the presence of proper nutrition. We tell the people that we are wokring with the 75% of your success will come from the nutrition side. Without proper diet, you won't be able to effectively access energy stores, nor will you be able replace nutrients lost during exercise. When that happens, metabolism declines. We have wonderful fat loss aids here at LIVE, like Yellow Subs, and we want you to take them when you are giving your body the best opportunity for results!<br /><br />We deal with a lot of people who go to the gym almost religiously. Often, they spend hours working out, and still, over the course of months, they show little or no progress. Every day, they are there huffing and puffing - but they're still overweight in spite of their efforts. We also know people who work out far less and make amazing progress, and still others who maintain a healthy, lean look without even trying. Again, it can come down to the effective use of good diet with that exercise and the use of supplements that ensure the optimal delivery of nutrients for the goal, like Leukic by Muscletech.<br /><br />Naturally, genetics are a key factor. But so is <a href="http://diet-workout.blogspot.com/">metabolism</a>, and metabolism is inherently dependent on how you treat your body. If you attempt to exercise intensively without supporting your body's nutritional needs, you won't get very far.<br /><br />Rest and relaxation, too, are every bit as important as action. Remember that under chronic stress or exhaustion, your body's nervous system (and thus your metabolism) suffers. Avoid compulsively long daily exercise routines. Instead, vary your workouts, including short, intense training sessions in the mix.<br /><br />Many popular health gurus recommend moderate exercise, such as walking or gardening, as the best solution. Their reasoning is that moderate exercise puts less pressure on the body and the heart. Certainly, gentle exercise is good for you, and it results in less oxidation and fewer free radicals than intensive exercise, but it also limits the challenges you can approach and the level of fitness you can achieve.<br /><br />I believe the best way to exercise is by providing your body with intense stimuli to which it will naturally adapt. Our body has the wisdom to adjust to physical strain by getting stronger and tougher. Through this adaptative process, the body improves it's own metabolic state.<br /><br />Intense and short exercise intervals are also effective in pumping blood and oxygen to the entire body. Maximum oxygenation helps rejuvenate all body tissues and, again, this helps boost overall metabolism. A great Supplement that we sell that is perfect to help with short, intense bursts of energy is Cold fusion EX by LG Sciences.<br /><br />If you haven't been exercising regularly and strenuously, don't try to force yourself to exercise with maximum intensity straight out of the gate. Instead, follow a constructive exercise routine in which you gradually increase intensity over a period of weeks or months. This is where the use of an online personal trainer comes into play.<br /><br />Nourish your body, exercise intensely and get enough rest, and you can quickly reach a state of maximum metabolic efficiency. In this state, your body will efficiently burn body fat as fuel. Its base level of energy utilization will accelerate, and gradually, this will cause your body to naturally redesign itself.<br /><br />When you reach maximum metabolic efficiency, you are literally re-creating yourself - at a cellular level - on an ongoing basis. Just because you weren't born with a super-fast metabolism doesn't mean you can't possess one. And just because you are carting around extra fat right now doesn't mean you have to keep it forever.<br /><br />If you want to live in a young, vigorous, lean body, just give your body what it needs in order to reach a peak metabolic state: Eat well, exercise intensely, get enough rest. Most importantly, get to know your body from the inside out. Enjoy its power, respect its complexity, and it will repay you richly. </p><hr /> LiveLeanToday.com offers real live support with their <a href="http://www.liveleantoday.com/">online fitness trainer</a> programs, and discount prices on top nutritional products like <a href="http://shop.liveleantoday.com/product/megadrine-rfa1-hi-tech-maximum-strength-2661.cfm">Megadrine</a>.Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-32354509594948379872009-04-13T15:54:00.000-07:002009-04-13T15:55:10.388-07:00Best Protein Sources for Vegetarians<p> Proteins are very necessary for human's health. The muscles of the body, hair, fingernails and many other body parts are made up of partially or wholly of protein. It is the common belief of the person that that the main source of proteins are only the non-vegetarian food substances. They think that vegetarian food normally lacks in protein. Now the question emerges, is their belief right? Well you can get the <a href="http://www.saveontans.com/">answer of this question</a> by your own while reading this article on vegetarian protein food.<br /><br />It is a fact that vegetarian food stuffs are also best in providing proteins and that too in high quantity. It is even revealed out of several surveys that those who are vegetarian are more healthy and fit as compared to those who are not. The only important thing to keep in mind is that the healthy vegetarian should take care to have adequate amount of protein in his diet for sure. It is worth to state that vegans require having more sensitivity regarding their body's protein requirements.<br /><br />Here is a list of pure vegetarian protein food stuffs for vegans:<br /><br />Spirulina:<br /><br />It is rare and pure vegetarian complete protein that contains all essential amino-acids. It is 85-95 percent digestible and easy for body to assimilate and digest. You can enjoy spirulina in dressing or smoothies.<br /><br />Bee pollen:<br /><br />Bee pollen has approximately 40 percent of proteins and packed with vital vitamins and minerals. It is count as nature's <a href="http://indoor-tan.blogspot.com/">super nourishing</a> vegetarian protein food. Bee pollen has more proteins as compared to any other animal sources like beef, eggs, meat etc.<br /><br />Soy products:<br /><br />Cooked soybeans (1/2 cup) have 10 grams of proteins and tofu (1/4 cup) also contains same quantity of proteins. Soy products are involved in small quantum in Asian diets while they are completely new for west. Select best quality of organic tofu as well as unsweetened soy milks. Fermented products of soy are very easy to digest.<br /><br />Legumes and Beans:<br /><br />Cooked chickpeas (2/3 cup) have 10 grams proteins. Incomplete proteins are present in beans. This means you can make them healthier by cooking them with other protein rich vegetables. Eating grains and beans together is classic combination that provides complete proteins.<br /><br />Dairy:<br /><br />Dairy products are very rich in proteins. Raw milk straight from the cow has very high content of proteins. Thus, raw organic as well as fermented milk food products are far better than homogenized and pasteurized milk.<br /><br />Process of homogenization breaks milk into very smaller particles. These particles cause lactose intolerance. Pasteurization mainly sanitizes milk but also kills its goodness too. The enzymes present in raw milk help in digestion.<br /><br />However, if you have treated organic-milk as a last option then do not worry. Here are some guidelines to make proteins present in homogenized and pasteurized milk more digestible.<br /><br />Eat yoghurt.<br /><br />Warm the milk with some digestive spices like cinnamon, ginger and cardamom.<br /><br />Cottage cheese would become more digestible when it added with little yoghurt.<br /><br />Try sheep and goat products.<br /><br />Protein powder:<br /><br />Whey protein-powders are processed proteins. However, smoothie protein-powder is very fine to take as occasional snack or in breakfast. Quality is key factor for complete health. So, from above vegetarian protein food stuffs you can get high quality protein. If you require more proteins then switch towards several other things available as well. It is not that the above mentioned are only the protein rich vegetarian food. In addition there are several other sorts of vegetarian foods available that can provide you with right quantity of protein. Some other sorts of choices that are available for you are bee pollen, legumes, spirulina etc. Hence, from the above food stuffs you can have rich protein diet without any non-vegetarian food.<br /><br />In addition, if you are concerned with the cost aspect, then too you need not to worry at all. It is so because if you would go for such sorts of foods then the best part is that you would get vegetarian food cheaper as compared to the non vegetarian food. So what's the deal in not going for vegetarian protein food? Also you are not required to worry about various problems or diseases than can happen because of eating poor quality non vegetarian food.<br /><br />Being vegan is itself a special and better choice. Thus, take high protein containing vegetables and fruits in your diet with other vegetarian protein food in order to have protein as per your physical requirements. </p><hr /> LiveLeanToday.com offers great value on <a href="http://shop.liveleantoday.com/department/ephedrine-diet-pills-10133.cfm">ephedra diet pills</a>, <a href="http://shop.liveleantoday.com/department/mrp-and-protein-powders-10011.cfm">protein powders</a>, and more.Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-38930669884148773582009-01-08T15:01:00.000-08:002009-01-08T15:03:02.686-08:00Why You Should Drink Organic CoffeeCopyright © 2009 Soaring Eagle Companies LLC<br /><br />In a culture that's obsessed with processed foods, the thought of "<a href="http://www.naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=58">organic coffee</a>" might scare java lovers. They may think that coffee is either too expensive or too bland for them to try out. As a result, they may continue drinking non-organic brands, making those companies even more successful.<br /><br />And, since there isn't any demand for that type of <a href="http://stores.ebay.com/naturesorganicmarket?refid=store">coffee</a>, brand-name manufacturers continue doing the same thing. Why switch to an that process if you can make more money with non-organic ones?<br /><br />Well, manufacturers and consumers need to reevaluate their thoughts towards organic coffee. First off, since this coffee is grown without pesticides, it is extremely healthy for the environment. During their cultivation, no chemicals are released into the air or soil. In turn, not only does the air remain clean, but there's no risk of harmful substances invading the area's water supply.<br /><br />Secondly, organic coffee tends to be much healthier than non-organic brands. Why? Well, most of these coffees are grown in parts of Africa where the soil contains volcanic compounds. This makes the dirt more arable, which results in the best coffee bean nature has to offer. Not only is the bean rich in antioxidants, (nutrients that are essential for healthy immune systems), but it contains a very strong coffee flavor. Also, the caffeine within this type of coffee tends to be more potent than the caffeine in non-organic brands. This means one cup of this coffee could equal four cups of non-organic brands, at least in terms of the energy boost you receive. At this rate, one cup of coffee could carry you through the whole day. Forget <a href="http://canyoneering-adventure.blogspot.com/">wasting</a> your work time on coffee breaks, since organic coffee will keep you alert the whole 8 hours.<br /><br />The caffeine in organic coffee may also help you lose weight. This is because caffeine naturally suppresses hunger while filtering the body of impurities. Just make sure you don't overdo it, since too much caffeine will not only cause heart problems, but it may make you nauseous. And, since this coffee is more powerful, you won't need as much to get a caffeine overdose. So, to avoid these problems, make sure you drink in moderation.<br /><br />In conclusion, organic coffee offers many benefits for humans and their environment. But as long as people keep consuming non-organic brands, manufacturers won't see the economic value behind natural cultivation. So, for now, organic coffee lovers will just have to buy their java from independent enterprises.<br /><br />------------------------<br /><br />"Dr. Robin Rushlo", is a well known MLM Radio personality and is nationally recognized as an expert in the network marketing business.He is the current host of the radio show, "Networking with the Blindguy"live daily from SEAD RADIO Network,providing Success and Retention Training for the network marketing industry brought to you at the Successful People Builders Network http://drinkcoffeegetpaid.comLive Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-88842361283597352122008-12-18T13:18:00.000-08:002008-12-18T13:22:31.495-08:00Organic Vitamins - The Hot New Trend in NutritionIt is important to know that 95% of supplements on the market are synthetic, i.e. they are created in a lab. The other 5% are organic whole food supplements and are simply food in concentrated form.<br /><br />There is a subtle but crucial difference between synthetic supplements, organic vitamins and whole food supplements. Vitamins, neither organic nor synthetic, were meant to be taken in isolation.<br /><br />A great example of a whole food supplement is acerola cherry powder. The acerola cherry is a rich source of Vitamin C. Basically, the cherries are dried and crushed to create a powder which is mixed into water or juice. As far as your <a href="http://keep-doctor-away.blogspot.com/">body is concerned</a> you are eating handful of cherries which are full of Vitamin C!<br /><br />Most of us know that the orange is a great food source of Vitamin C. The reason is that every other substance in the orange works synergistically with the Vitamin C in the body for maximum absorption. A plain Vitamin C tablet usually does not contain these other 'co-factors' which allow your body to reap maximum benefit.<br /><br />Generally, if we are eating a well rounded diet of veggies, fruits, grains, legumes, dairy, eggs, and meats and avoiding white sugar, processed products and denatured foods then we should be getting all of the vitamins we need.<br /><br />The reality is that most of us are not doing this and even if we were we would probably not be getting what we need. Why not?<br /><br />First of all, each person has different vitamin requirements based on their genetics, diet, lifestyle and environmental stress load. Believe it or not genetics can play a role in how much say, Vitamin A, you require. Even if you have a wonderful diet full of whole unprocessed foods...<br /><br />much of the soil on our farmlands has been so depleted that what looks like spinach in 2008 probably bears little resemblance nutritionally to spinach from 1950.<br /><br />The caveat to this, of course, is produce that is grown organically<br /><br />In this modern era of focus on diet and nutrition...<a href="http://www.naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=29_84">organics, vitamins</a> and supplements have become a hot topic. It is all at once easy to get hopelessly confused or to completely ignore the overload of information on the subject of vitamins both in food and in supplement form.<br /><br />It becomes counterproductive to over think your nutritional and vitamin intake, but it is also unwise to ignore it. While we can live without enough of a certain vitamin for a while, in the long term a vitamin deficiency is a precursor to all sorts of health problems.<br /><br />For example, Vitamin D deficiency is being linked to cancer, heart disease, susceptibility to colds and flus and a host of other problems. Most people who eat a typical American diet tend to be deficient somewhere.<br /><br />Another factor that depletes our vitamin stores is stress, a.k.a. a busy hectic lifestyle, not enough sleep, lack of exercise, and toxins in our households and our surrounding environment. So what about taking vitamin supplements, and more importantly why should you choose an organic vitamin?<br /><br />A high-quality, organic, vitamin supplement made from food can be a wonderful way to ensure that your body is getting what it needs.<br /><br />Although supplements are not a good substitute for a high quality diet they can work beautifully in conjunction with it.<br /><br />A good quality organic vitamin or supplement has the power to help your body heal through an illness or simply to act as an insurance policy of sorts to prevent future illness.<br /><br />------------------------<br /><br />We have created a comprehensive resource for organic health and wellness to help you find the ind of quality nutrition your body needs.

The National Organic Standards Board was then established to develop guidelines and procedures to regulate all organic crops. The U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) during December 2000 unveiled detailed regulations to implement OFPA. These took effect on April 21, 2001, with an 18-month implementation period ending October 2002. At that time, any food labeled <a href="http://www.naturesorganicmarket.com">organic</a> must meet these national organic standards. USDA’s National Organic Program oversees the program.Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-75157976609234672902008-11-11T15:35:00.000-08:002008-11-11T15:36:56.088-08:00Organic PhotovoltaicsImagine a T-shirt that runs you iPod, a pair of jeans that recharges your cell phone, and a beach umbrella that runs a TV. Sound far-fetched?<br /><br />Okay, I will agree with you that it does.<br /><br />Nevertheless, research into photovoltaics and solar energy has reached a point where these are definite possibilities.<br /><br />What Are <a href="http://www.naturesorganicmarket.com/">Organic</a> Photovoltaics?<br /><br />Organic Photovoltaics, or OPV for short, are new types of semiconductors which are based on organic materials.<br /><br />Though they are still in the research phase, OPVs can be made as thin flexible sheets, and as such they can be incorporated into cloth or paper.<br /><br />Due to the fact that they are flexible they can be mass-produced at low cost. So another result of this advanced research could be low-cost mass-produced inexpensive solar cells.<br /><br />What are Semiconductors?<br /><br />Rest assured, <a href="http://www.nutritionsportsupplement.com/">whether you understand</a> the below or not, it won't affect whether a solar charging T-shirt will work for you (if it ever hits the market).<br /><br />But I will try to explain it in simple terms, just so you have a better idea of what we are talking about.<br /><br />The following is a brief description of semiconductors are.<br /><br />Semiconductors (organic or not) are materials that have either too many free electrons, or have a scarcity of electrons.<br /><br />Semiconductors with too many free electrons are called "N-type semiconductors" amongst scientific types of people.<br /><br />Semiconductors that don't have enough electrons are called "P-type". P-type semiconductors have "holes." Holes are places where there the atom "theoretically" should have an electron, but does not. (Which just goes to show that reality and theory don't always match up.)<br /><br />By combining materials that have these qualities, we are able to make electrical components such as transistors (transistors are devices which help regulate the flow of electricity).<br /><br />Some semiconductors are sensitive to light when they are stuck together. It is these semiconductors that are used in photovoltaic cells. When they are exposed to light, a tiny electrical current is created. This is not a new discovery.<br /><br />But, as stated earlier, it is new that we are able to create a semiconductor out of organic materials. And that opens the door to a whole new range of possibilities.<br /><br />Incidentally, computer chips are usually made out of semiconductors. So this new discovery might have some interesting applications in the field of computers.<br /><br />Humanized robots? Artificial intelligence? Who knows.<br /><br />------------------------<br /><br />Learn more about solar power and alternative energy at http://www.findportablesolarpower.com and http://livingclean.com/alternativeenergyLive Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-14354334224536644492008-10-28T15:54:00.000-07:002008-10-28T15:56:28.519-07:00How a coffee product becomes Certified Organic.Copyright © 2008 Soaring Eagle Companies LLC<br /><br />Understanding how a product such as <a href="http://www.naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=58">coffee</a> becomes certified organic, gains a better understanding into the world of nutrition and how food labels affect ones health and well being.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=12">Organic food</a> basically means that even before the food was grown, the area where the seeds or plants were planted had to be free and clear of waste and chemicals such as fertilizers and pesticides. Any type of plant food spray is prohibited when it comes to growing the coffee bean, which means extra care has to be established by the grower such as weeding by hand, pest removal by means of not using any type of chemical and routine feeding and maintenance by drug free plant food. The same goes for organically grown vegetables and also animals that are also being raised for the consumption of organic milk and meat.<br /><br />For a company or manufacturer to allow their coffee to become certified organic they must first differentiate between their organic growing methods and their more traditional methods that involve the use of synthetic chemicals and sewage sludge in the growing and manufacturing of all the food they grow as well as the animals they raise at the same location.<br /><br />For products such as coffee to be labeled certified organic, a farm or business must set high standards throughout the entire growing process. From the way seeds or plants are stored to before they are planted, are just as important as keeping unnatural chemicals and preservatives away from them while they are growing. For example, how coffee beans are picked and how they are stored as well as how chemical free they remain while being packaged and shipped is essential in meeting organic food guidelines and measures. Organic coffee beans must meet full organic standards right up until they land on store shelves at the local market or grocery store to be ready for consumers to purchase.<br /><br />The land in which the coffee or other organic product is being grown on must remain free from any chemical or fertilizer dumping that could contaminate the soil even if it isn't being directly sprayed onto the organic plants. Even the smallest amount of outside contamination can occur from chemicals that have leaked into the surrounding soil, thus making the coffee un-certifiable organic.<br /><br />Keeping non-certified organic food separate from organic food is essential in keeping up with the standard guidelines with the organic label. Cross contamination of food such as coffee beans is not allowed and could cause a business to lose their license or organic food selling privileges.<br /><br />Growers must live up to the highest standards in keeping organic versus non organic foods separate from the time of planting and even up to delivery and distribution.<br /><br />Having the site where the coffee is grown periodically inspected by government food officials or nonprofit organic organizations and private companies is the only way for a product to carry an organically grown stamp on their coffee. Growers must abide by all of these guidelines in order to maintain a healthy environment for coffee until it reaches the consumer.<br /><br />------------------------<br /><br />"Dr. Robin Rushlo", is a well known MLM Radio personality and is nationally recognized as an expert in the network marketing business.He is the current host of the radio show, "Networking with the Blindguy"live daily from SEAD RADIO Network,providing Success and Retention Training for the network marketing industry brought to you at the Successful People Builders Network http://drinkcoffeegetpaid.comLive Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8222783644451150286.post-70750047591187626462008-10-10T13:29:00.000-07:002008-10-10T13:31:03.696-07:00How is organic coffee producedUnited States of America (Press Release) October 10, 2008 -- What is Organic in the first place?<br /><br />In the contemporary world organic agricultural production means using traditional methods and materials which are least harmful the surrounding environment. Like Mother Nature for millions of years, the organic agricultural production methods keeps rejuvenating the nutritional richness of soil and sustains its fertility. In the organic agricultural production methods toxic and harmful chemical fertilizers and pesticides/insecticides are generally shun and at dire situations minimally used. Instead of them organic methods build biologically diverse agriculture to create the same effect naturally.<br /><br />The meaning of Organic Coffee<br /><br />Organic coffee means naturally shade grown coffee untouched by any harmful synthetic chemical and more importantly untouched by merely commercial and profit oriented methods that sacrifice environment leading to local ecological imbalance like severe deforestation, soil erosion and depletion etc.<br /><br />Organic in the present profit oriented commercial situation of the world means ‘responsible living’, ‘protecting the earth for progeny’, ‘understanding the earth as a living system’ and ‘being knowledgeable about the harms of destroying any part of the eco system’ and so on.<br /><br />‘Organic’ is the lifeline of future of the health of the earth and humankind.<br /><br />The ‘real’ ‘natural’ and ‘actual’ coffee<br /><br />In nature, coffee plants grow under the shade of other trees without needing much direct sun light. Growing under shade trees also means the falling leaves of other trees in due course of time turn out to be excellent natural manure. The layer on layer of fallen leaves works as a blanket to keep the soil moisture protected and intact. The lower layers with moisture and humidity compost and this natural fertilizer keeps the soil nutrients remain in natural balance without being depleted. And the soil remains fertile.<br /><br />The rich canopy of shade trees also remains the home for varieties of birds which live on insects which in turn are dangerous pests of coffee plants. Due to the presence of large number of bird population, no need arises to use any harmful chemical insecticides. Thus, in the total absence of harmful chemical fertilizers or insecticides the pest controlling birds flourish and the environment remains naturally healthy and life sustaining and supportive.<br /><br />The coffee grown in this natural environment is the actual coffee that enchanted the mankind through centuries with its taste and flavor.<br /><br />The method of growing organic coffee<br /><br />The natural and traditional method to start with involves inter-planting, which means, coffee plants planted along with other shade giving trees contrasting the commercially grown coffee under direct sun light without shade giving trees.<br /><br />Secondly to allow the falling leaves of trees to compost to form natural fertilizer and to leave the fallen leaves without disturbing them to protect the soil moisture.<br /><br />Thirdly by allowing the bird population to grow through avoiding felling of shade giving trees and the birds that live on small insects keeps the coffee plants bereft of pests. Birds are natural pesticide and insecticide provided by the nature and going along with nature is what organic method of growing coffee.<br /><br />And finally through avoiding strictly the use of any chemical fertilizer, pesticide or insecticide the integrity of the natural taste and flavor of coffee is kept intact.<br /><br />The last step of decaffeinating<br /><br />For decaffeinating the organic coffee, it is essential to avoid using the commercially used chemical like methylene chloride or ethyl acetate which is considered harmful to human health and carcinogenic. And using such chemicals in the process of decaffeinating coffee beans actual corrupts the original taste and flavor of coffee.<br /><br />To decaffeinating organic coffee, only certified organic decaffeination processes should be applied or it should be done by using just water to wash off caffeine using the much acclaimed and approved ‘Swiss Water Process’. This is the only accepted method for organic coffee to remain really organic and healthy.<br /><br /><br />Welcome Organic Coffee<br /><br />Coffee thus produced under shade trees without the use of any harmful chemicals, be it fertilizer or insecticide and produced without harming the environment in any way like felling of trees leading to deforestation, and which results in soil erosion or depletion of natural nutrients of the soil and decaffeinated through right process is what organic coffee – the natural taste of coffee. And welcoming the organic coffee is a meaningful contribution you render to environmental protection and leave behind a healthy earth for our progeny.<br /><br /><div style="margin: 5px;"><strong>For more information:</strong></div><br /><div>NaturesOrganicMarket.com</div><br /><div>Visit our website: <a href="http://www.naturesorganicmarket.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=58" target="_blank" title="How is organic coffee produced">http://www.naturesorganicmarket.com/index....</a></div>Live Healthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17161681627086932191noreply@blogger.com0
