Beep. Beep. No one really looks forward to their alarm clock in the morning. It disrupts our wonderful sleep and relaxation, and catapults us into the day ahead. The courage and drive to leave the comforts of your bed can be difficult; in fact so challenging that people often set their alarm for as late as possible and then hit the snooze until the point of being late for work. The process of changing such a habit it tough, but developing the right attitude is the most important step to success.

With so many distractions and responsibilities in life, people always say, “There isn’t enough time in the day.” This may seem true at first glance but waking up 15 minutes early can have a wondrous effect on our daily lives. Imagine having time to work out, take a walk, meditate or just have time to yourself in a chaotic world. Think about how much better your mental state could be.

Charles Swindoll once said, “I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.” So, if people can find extra free time by waking up earlier, our mental health could vastly improve and thus lead to a happier, healthier and productive you. Of course, everyone values their sleep, so try going to sleep earlier and setting your alarm 15 minutes early, and make sure to turn on lights or place the alarm out of arms length so you’re more apt to actually get up.

In addition to healthier mind, the extra time could be used to better you physically and/or spiritually. You can use the time to walk, jog, run or pray. Almost everyone feels they need to lose a few pounds and waking up earlier could be all the motivation someone needs.

You may be asking how I can do this with the hectic holiday season in full swing, but you can wait until the New Year to start. Don’t make it a job. In other words, make it fun and even reward yourself for having a better sleeping habit. Also, some other good habits to acquire or build on for the New Year include eating more fruits and vegetables, eating smaller portion sizes and cooking at home and sitting down to dinner with the family on a more regular basis.

Like me, you may also need a little extra boost or kick in the rear to get going on these changes. Finding a workout buddy or a friend who pledges to complete the steps with you is extremely helpful and can ensure success without getting off track. In the case you can’t find someone to be your “healthy partner” you can invest in Lift™, which is an all-natural energy drink mix that can help the body increase energy from within. Lift™uses health supplements; bone restore; hair skin and nails; two per day capsules; c vitamin; vitamin c; vitamin c2; c2 vitamin; omega 3 supplement; health booster; vitamin k; vitamin d; vitamin d3; one per day vitamin; one per day multivitamin; glucosamine chondroitin; life extension magnesium; magnesium supplement; coq10 supplement; viatmin e supplement; glutathione cysteine; supplement nac; black seed oil; glucosamine; n acetyl cysteine; nacetyl l cysteine; fish oil; supplements fish oil; acetyl cysteine; omega 3 supplements; fish oil pill; omega 3 from fish oil; best fish oil supplements; n acetylcysteine cysteine; omega 3 supplements best; b complex; fish oil benefits; vitamins and supplements; black seed oil benefits; flush niacin; glucosamine chondroitin; vitamin life extension; supplements life extension; life extension multivitamin; life extension magnesium; magnesium caps; prostate ultra; fish oil vitamins; supplements vitamins; durk pearson; durk pearson and sandy shawthe natural stimulators of the body to help you stay more focused and alert through the day without the caffeine and sugar infusion.

Making changes can be scary, but make it your daily resolution to create a better attitude and more healthy habits. Choosing to make the small changes in your daily routine can create huge improvements to your mental and physical health in the long run.

Honoring Our Men and Father Figures

You might have concerns about maintaining prostate health, sexual performance, flexible joints, and lean muscle mass.

Summer has arrived. The days are longer, and it’s time to relax and spend more hours outdoors. It’s also a great time to evaluate your health regimen, especially if you are “a man on the go.”

 

So, gents, ask yourself this: “Am I taking care of myself?”

 

Sooner or later, all men are faced with working a bit harder to stay in shape. You might have concerns about maintaining prostate health, sexual performance, flexible joints, and lean muscle mass . . . not to mention staying balanced at work, play and everyday life.

We at Life Priority would like to honor all men by showing you how to rev up your health regimen. In consideration of the special health needs of men we offer Prostate Priority, Muscle Memory and Total Joint Complex— designed with special herbs, amino acids and other nutrients to support your lifestyle and protect your health.

Prostate health

Did you know that if you are a man living in the United States it’s almost inevitable you’ll eventually have to face prostate problems? The prostate gland is about the size of a walnut and sits just below the bladder, in front of the rectum. It has the important job of producing the milky fluid that becomes part of semen. And in this case, size does matter because when the prostate becomes enlarged you have to deal with annoying and sometimes painful symptoms.

Maybe you already have some of the symptoms of an enlarged prostate gland.

Do you:

* Get up several times during the night to go to the bathroom?

* Have trouble getting your “stream” to start?

* Are on a constant lookout for the men’s room?

* Need to “go” so urgently you can’t wait?

* Feel like you haven’t emptied your bladder completely after urinating?

* Strain in order to urinate?

* Suffer from the devastating embarrassment of incontinence?

 

Life Priority’s Prostate Priority™ can help!

 

What exactly is an enlarged prostate gland?

The prostate gland begins to grow in most males after they reach 40 years of age because DHT (dihydrotestosterone), a potent form of the male hormone testosterone, increases in the body. Testosterone is produced by the testicles and the adrenal glands and DHT accumulates in the prostate, causing prostate cells to rapidly divide. This overgrowth of prostate tissue compresses the urethra and slows or even stops the flow of urine in a similar way that a bent garden hose inhibits the flow of water. The occurs in 75 percent of men over 60 and sometimes the enlargement is the result of a more serious nature.

Take care of your health today

Prostate Priority™ contains the saw palmetto berry used in Europe since the 1970’s. The berry is derived from a small palm tree native to the Atlantic Coast of North America. Native Americans consumed its olive-sized berries as a normal part of their diet and brewed it as a tea for urinary and sexual problems. Today, numerous studies have found that saw palmetto contains fatty acids and sterols effective in balancing male hormones, supporting testicular functions, and relieving prostate discomfort.

Saw Palmetto provides a number of powerful health benefits by:

  • Reducing the level of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by blocking its receptor sites in the prostate, and by inhibiting enzymes necessary for DHT conversion.
  • Helping shrink over-grown prostate tissue without bothersome side effects.

Benefits at a Glance:

  • Supports prostate and reproductive health with cutting-edge nutrients
  • Helps protect against excess estrogen levels
  • Promotes healthy prostate size and structure
  • Inhibits undesirable cell division changes
  • Supports healthy urinary patterns and flow

What man doesn’t want a strong erection?

L-Arginine – is an amino acid that is involved in the production of nitric oxide, a chemical released by the blood that helps the muscles in the penis to relax. This, in turn, allows healthy blood flow in order to sustain a healthy erection.

But it does much more! When taken as a nutritional supplement l-arginine helps increase growth hormone levels. Here’s how: The hypothalamus manufactures two biochemicals that regulate the amount of growth hormone released by the pituitary gland. One biochemical stimulates growth hormone production and the other serves to put on the brakes. l-Arginine works to decrease the amount of the “braking” biochemical produced by the pituitary. In turn, this increases the amount of the stimulating hormone reaching the pituitary and causes an increase in growth hormone release.

The benefits of Growth Hormone Factor

Optimal levels of growth hormone are associated with deeper sleep, more energy throughout the day, increased exercise strength and/or endurance, faster hair and nail growth, a general attitude improvement, and a feeling of well-being. Not bad!

Additionally, when Life Priority’s New Improved Muscle Memory™, which contains 6 grams of arginine per serving, is taken along with choline and B-5, it helps you build lean muscle mass by maintaining a youthful ratio of muscle to fat. This effect is sometimes called “protein sparing” because growth hormone tends to protect body protein from being used as an energy source.

Life Priority’s New Improved Muscle Memory™ is an excellent supplement to add to your regimen to help you maintain a lean muscular physique, enhance healthy aging, and to support your vitality, youthfulness, and overall physical fitness.

By the way, this product is not just for men. It also benefits women. It works to increase growth hormone factor, and the l-arginine works as a pro-sexual supplement helping women to achieve orgasm more easily.

Joint health

Do you get stiff after rough-housing with the kids, being a weekend warrior, or just sitting at your desk all day?

You have about 230 joints in your body. They are responsible for keeping you vertical and mobile. An active life style can be hard on overused joint, but a sedentary lifestyle can be even more harmful.  Exercise keeps us healthy and limber but inevitably increases the wear and tear on our joints. Additionally, repetitive motion at a job and inactivity after work can cause joints, tendons, and muscles to atrophy or become weak.

Bones and connective tissue are made of both minerals and proteins which give them strength and elasticity. As we age our bones tend to lose minerals and our connective tissue (ligaments, tendons, cartilage) loses structural proteins.

Hundreds of studies have shown that glucosamine and chondroitin can provide joint support naturally and may be a great alternative to traditional therapies that can lead to undesirable side effects.

Life Priority’s formulators designed a joint supplement to help you no matter what your lifestyle is. We’ve combined glucosamine and chondroitin with four other natural ingredients —MSM, Boswellia serrata, Bromelain and Turmeric—that also have scientific and anecdotal evidence showing how they can protect joint health and keep you moving today . . . and, hopefully, years from now.

Your joints move and flex all day, every day.  With wear and tear, aging, and possible injury, it is important to provide the best nutritional foundation for these complex components of your musculoskeletal system.  Your joints deserve the best nutrition and protection science and nature can offer.

Take advantage of Life Priority’s nutritional supplements to target the areas of your health that can use all the support they can get.

June and Men’s Health!

This month we are all taking time out to honor the important men in our lives by celebrating Father’s Day. At Life Priority we encourage you toIt’s known fact most men only go to the doctor when they are sick. This creates the generalization that men are too casual about their health. recognize the DAD’S and male role models who have coached us, encouraged us, loved us, and provided for us.taught us and protected us.  At Life Priority want to express our sincere gratitude  and take June as special month to focus on Men’s health. We all need support and encouragement so help are our top tips to support those special DAD”S and role models.

At Life Priority, our mission is health, and we can’t think of any better gift to give our dads than that of increased wellness and energy. That’s why this month we are offering a few men’s health tips that can help fathers enjoy their families for years to come!

1. Don’t smoke. By now this should go without saying, but many men still cling to the cigarette habit. Unfortunately, smoking dramatically increases your risk for heart disease, cancer and a number of other diseases and is responsible for one in five deaths in the United States every year. Dads, if you want to be around to enjoy your family, give yourself the gift of kicking the smoking habit!

2. Watch your weight. This so much more than just about looking good. Maintaining a healthy weight increases your quality of life by giving you energy, decreasing your risk of death and disease and by helping ward off depression. Find ways to incorporate more healthy foods into your diet in place of junk foods and make time for regular exercise.

3. Drink wisely. There are so many benefits to limiting alcohol intake to a moderate level that we could write another blog entirely on this subject. Excessive alcohol increases your risk for disease, depression, accidents and social irresponsibility. And, of course, by not limiting your alcohol, you also run the risk of addiction. Don’t put yourself or your family in that situation. Limit yourself to, at most, one or two standard-sized drinks per day.

4. Get checked out. While it’s not fun, it’s still necessary to see your doctor regularly and be screened for high cholesterol, high blood pressure and common cancers. Early detection is particularly key when it comes to colon and prostate cancer, so don’t put this on the backburner. Bite the bullet and get on your doctor’s calendar!

5. Take your vitamins! While they’re not an excuse to avoid healthy foods, common multivitamins and supplements can go a long way in preventing health problems. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about your specific needs and what vitamins and supplements would be right for you based on lifestyle and family history.

They say that the best gifts in life are free, and we believe that’s true—especially when it comes to health. If you are a dad or just hope to become one someday, give yourself a great Father’s Day gift by choosing to take care of your health. Wellness is the kind of present that will keep on giving long after the golf clubs or neckties have lost their appeal. So take our advice and choose to live a full, fit life. And, if there’s any way we at Life Priority can help you get started and stay on track, call us today!
