ESPN and the Irresponsible Media
You have undoubtedly heard it time and again. . . .baseball and steroids and HGH. The inept media repeatedly refers to both steriods and HGH in the same breath. It is very unfortunate that they have not taken the time to do a lick of research on either subject, particularly human growth hormone.
As most people know, steroid are illegal. There are countless studies demonstrating the dramatic and numerous side effects of medium and long term use, from joint damage to liver damage to testicular atrophy.
There are over 8000 studies on HGH. Virtually ALL have shown the powerful and effective nature of this substance. In addition, there are no side effects if taken properly. Finally, it is a 100% legal substance. It is a leader in the wave of new medicine, that of anti-aging.
The new medicine views aging as a disease. As such, it is treated in a manner that a disease would be. HGH has been found to be a "cure" of sorts, in that it slows down, stops or even reverses the effects of aging.
For ESPN and other media outlets to view such a promising substance as HGH as anything other than a legal, anti-aging substance is pure stupidity at best. It amazes me how many sheep there are in the field of journalism.

Hgh Plus Miracle Baby
Article published NZ Woman's Day
A herbal potion ended decades of infertility.
Every child is a miracle, but to Warren and Chrissy Coop, their youngest daughter Sarah is more miraculous than most. Even though her mother was told by doctors there was almost no chance she'd have another baby, five-month-old Sarah's ecstatic parents are convinced her surprise arrival is down to an all-natural herbal formula Chrissy had been taking, called Dr. Orman's HGH Plus. Wellsford couple Warren and Chrissy were told soon after their marriage in 1983 that their chances of having children without fertility treatment were extremely slim. Chrissy, 41, suffers from Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) – a condition where cysts build up on the ovaries, stalling ovulation and,
at worst, leading to obesity, hirsutism and infertility.
Unaware of her condition until she was married, Chrissy – who says she could "count on one hand" the number of periods she'd had – had tried medication to try and regulate ovulation. However, as soon as the young music teacher discovered that PCOS was responsible for her missing periods, she and Warren decided to try everything in their power to fall pregnant. "We dispensed with contraception straight away," says Warren, 45. "We were only 19 and 22 when we got married, but we were desperate to have a family."
Seven years later, and with no sign of pregnancy, the couple began to accept that they would not havechildren unassisted. "I felt emptiness," says Chrissy. "I had a longing and a feeling of wanting to love, but no children to give love to. I cried a lot during
that time." When a doctor suggested the couple investigate IVF treatment, they agreed and went on to have three healthy babies – Edwina, now 14, and twin sons Michael and Jonathon, 11.
investigated herbal remedies. He suggested his wifeDelighted to finally have their family, the couple ceased IVF treatment and settled down to busy lives farming, teaching music and running a snack machine franchise, while coping with three active children. "After the twins, I asked my doctor whether we should use any contraception," says Chrissy. "He just said, 'I wouldn't even worry if I were you – you need a bomb in your system to get it going.' My periods still weren't occurring due to the PCOS." It wasn't until Chrissy became unhappy with the amount of hair growing on her face – a side-effect of PCOS – that Warren, who is keenly interested in naturopathy, begin taking a liquid anti-ageing formula called HGH Plus.
"HGH stands for Human Growth Hormone," explains Warren. "The name sounds scary and I can understand why people would shy away from it. But the formula Chrissy took is actually made up of herbs and amino acidsand homeopathic ingredients. It helps your body produce the hormones that it already produces naturally, and because it’s a natural thing I felt better about Chrissy putting this into her body rather than drugs.”
Warren ordered a bottle of HGH Plus online and Chrissy began taking a daily dose of droplets mixed with water. The results, she says, were instant. “Within three days my energy levels had shot up and within a week I was feeling fabulous. But the biggest change was that within five months I was having regular periods. At one point I thought about having my hormone levels tested to see if I was ovulating,
but then I thought, no, it’s impossible…”
One day Chrissy was packing the van with snack products
when she felt an overwhelming wave of nausea. “I began feeling really off and the smell of the chocolate, especially, was making me feel ill. I thought, ‘This is bizarre. No normal woman retches at the smell of chocolate!’” A home pregnancy test confirmed that Chrissy was pregnant. “I just screamed my head off!” she recalls. “This was the impossible! I raced to the phone and called Warren, who was in a meeting, and yelled, ‘I’m pregnant’. I think we were both in total and utter shock.”
Sarah Grace Coop was born on August 23, 2005. Her birth has dumbfounded the family’s GP, Dr Tim Molloy, who says only that Chrissy’s pregnancy was “a surprise to both of us.” While Dr Molloy has no comment to make over whether HGH Plus may have helped Chrissy fall pregnant, friends of the couple are taking the formula in the hope that they, too, may conceive a child. Living with infertility is a huge strain,’ says Chrissy. “I remember when I had my first child I prayed and said, “Lord, never let me forget the
pain of infertility so that I can help others.’ We’re lucky. We’ve got a happy marriage and our precious children.

Water
Read an interesting article today. Men who drink tap water (in excess of 2 liters) are 50% more likely to get bladder cancer compared to those who do not. Why? The obvious — chemicals, toxins and heavy metals contained within the tap water.

Cutting Fat
The right types of fats can dramatically improve your health. Foods such as salmon, avocado and nuts (particularly almonds) provides the needed Omega oils. Other types of fats, such as that found on beef is unhealthy. Here are some simple suggestions for removal: – Trim as much as possible prior to and after cooking. – Use low fat cooking methods such as roasting, grilling and broiling in that order. Flavor does not suffer while health benefits increase. – Rinse cooked beef in hot water is a strainer. – Drop an ice cube into any cooled beef containing liquids such as soup. The fat hardens around the ice cube which can easily be removed. – Put steaks in the freezer for 20-30 minutes prior to cooking. This will harden the visible fat, making it easy to remove. More health improving information can be found at www.hghplus.net

An Apple a Day?
Apple juice could help your brain remain sharp
Eating apples and drinking apple juice could keep you mentally sharp despite ageing, researchers say.
Researchers from the University of Massachusetts at Lowell found that there is something in apples and apple juice that protects brain cells in normal aging.
The researchers assessed whether drinking apple juice could protect against brain damage in aging mice, damage that can lead to memory loss.
Researcher Thomas B. Shea evaluated adult and aged mice using a standard diet, a nutrient-deficient diet, and a nutrient-deficient diet supplemented with apple juice concentrate in drinking water.
Although the adult mice tested were not affected negatively by the deficient diets, the aged mice were, which is consistent with normal aging due to oxidative neuro-degeneration.
The effect on cognition among the aged mice was measured through well-established maze tests, followed by an examination of brain tissue. However, the aged mice who were given the diets supplemented with apple juice performed significantly better on the maze tests and all had less oxidative brain damage than those on the standard diet.
Supplementation by apple juice protected the aged mice from the oxidative stress caused by the nutrient-deficient diet. In addition, stronger mental acuity resulted when the aged mice consumed the human equivalent of 2-3 cups of apple juice or approximately 2-4 apples per day, they said.
The study, which was published in the latest issue of the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease, says apples have naturally high level of antioxidants that are responsible for these positive effects.
Although more research is needed, Shea is excited about these brain health findings, which are encouraging for all individuals who are interested in staying mentally sharp as they age.
