Are French Fries and Ketchup Categorized As Vegetables?

Posted on by

Two common vegetables kids in the United States eat are French Fries and Ketchup.  Now, would you honestly believe and categorize French Fries as a serving of vegetables?  Is Ketchup a vegetable?  Some do actually.  Don’t get me wrong, they taste really good with an American Cheeseburger, but is it adequate for our health needs?  Is it adequate for our children’s needs?

I do understand a burger, fries and a coke is a tasty treat and typically done as a lunch or dinner but with the current obesity problem, it’s doing more harm than good, would you agree?  Yes it’s cheap!  Obesity rates is expected to go up in the USA during the current Economy because it is simply cheaper to go to McDonald’s than it is to go to the Grocery Store and buy some good wholesome fruits and vegetables.  I have heard, and correct me if I’m wrong that two pears are more expensive than a full meal in McDonald’s.  So, a struggling mother would be able to feed her children at McDonald’s more so than simply going to the grocery store.  Completely understandable but gosh, we got to weigh in the pros and cons here as many Americans are horizontally challenged.

Most Americans lay awake at night worrying health and finances as it was polled back in 1997 and today its the same thing.  So, in order to provide our children and ourselves the best health money can buy is simply to make more money.

Mannatech, Inc. is a Reasearch and Development Nutrition Company that develops Real Food Technology Solutions.  Their mission is to provide better solutions to global health through natural and effective wellness products.  Mannatech, Inc, choose Network Marketing as their Marketing  vehicle which is proving to be very effective.

Why is Network Marketing Effective when it comes to health and nutrition?

#1. Network Marketing with Mannatech allows the Customer to be educated about health and their products more than what they can learn at the typical nutrition store (Mannatech products are not sold in stores).  There are plenty of research and background behind Mannatech Products and Seminars are given to ensure that each customer as well as their associates to fully understand the importance of health, dietary supplements and the benefits of Mannatech products.  The American Medical Association stated in their journal that it is imperative to supplement now because most nutrients are not found in the modern diet.  It makes sense!  Treats like Happy Meals don’t have that much nutrients hence the importance of supplementation for kids as well as for adults (some adults actually order Happy Meals too, because of the toys…)

#2. Network Marketing with Mannatech, Inc. allows associates to earn income to offset their monthly product needs.  They call it their free wellness for life program.  Perhaps if they want to earn a little more income to increase their grocery budgets, Mannatech and Independent Associates will provide help and training to achieve that.  And if they want to earn and match their current annual income, there is that option as well.  The individual Customer and Associate decides that.

So Mannatech knows the importance of health and finances.  To be healthy in our society today, you will have to be able to afford it.  Simple as that.  If you don’t believe that, then your kidding yourself.   That’s the truth!  Robert Kiyosaki said it’s wake up time!  Time to be financially literate.  We can be financially literate and healthy at the same time because our health is our wealth.  Cheers!

They will know how to get you started.  If me and my team are the ones that introduced you to Mannatech, you can contact us here and we will help you with Mannatech’s Health Solutions and Financial Solutions.

As an Independent Mannatech Associate, I am a product of the Products.  Yes, I actively take the products I recommend to all of my friends and family.  No use promoting a product that you don’t believe in, otherwise I’ll just be a salesman.   Professional sales people can sell virtually anything.  Me personally, I can’t sell $5 for a buck.  Honestly, I’m a bad salesman.  However, since I personally take the products, the people I share this information with takes my recommendations to heart.   Which is cool because I believe in what I am doing is a good thing.

I believe that there are a lot of people looking for what Mannatech has to offer.  Even the AMA which is the American Medical Association stated that the modern diet no longer supplies ample nutrients we need to live well and it is now imperative for us to supplement our diets with Dietary Supplements.  However, with all the stuff out there, how do we choose, and which ones do we choose to live that healthy lifestyle we are all looking for?  Now, Dietary Supplements are only designed to supplement you with nutrients.  That’s it!  They are not designed to cure what ever disease you may have.  Your body does that for you and nutrition are the tools your body needs to do what it is already designed to do;  to heal itself.  So nutrients are things found in plants which are food for us which supports normal bodily functions.  All that Mannatech does is extract those nutrients, stabilizes them and make a product so anyone can be nourished the way nature intended it.  Everything is plant sourced and natural.  That is Real Food Technology Solutions!

Now I know I will seem biased to you since I am indeed an Independent Mannatech Associate.  In fact I am very Biased.  I will openly say that Mannatech products deliver the best products out there.  In all honestly, without Mannatech, I wouldn’t be in Network Marketing but I believe in Mannatech.  Mannatech only Network Markets the products so you will never get it in retail stores like GNC or Vitamin World.  Only from Independent Mannatech Associates like me is where you will get these Mannatech Products.

Mannatech products range from Vitamins, to Antioxidants, to Omega 3′s, to Fat-loss products, to what Mannatech is really known for: Glyconutritionals, as well as skincare products.  Products designed to help you look great and feel great!  In all honestly, from taking these products for 5 years, I have never look and felt so good about myself.  I am 30 years old, with better quality of skin (I used to be a major pizza face), in good health and I still weigh the same as when I was 21, 155lbs standing at 5′ 8″ (fyi:  I weight train 4x a week).

Check out what Mannatech has to offer!  When you are ready to get started on looking great and feel fantabulous, get back to me or the person that recommended Mannatech to you.  We will help you get the products at the best value and help you in your LifeSytle Living.  Cheers!

LifeStyle Living for Golfers

Golfers already know what clubs they need, what brand putter they want and what shoes to wear.  On top of that, they are by far the best dressed athletes.  They got Style! Okay! Today, what I’m talking about are what kind of health products are good for Golfers, pro, amateurs, and The Weekend Golfer Warrior!

In general, regardless of who we are, what age, or where we come from, what everyone of us needs for good vibrant wellness are all natural plant based nutritional products (since most of us have diets that suck).  These nutrients include Glyconutrients which is basically Ambrotose from Mannatech, Inc. which supports the immune system, a Vitamin and Mineral supplement is a must for nourishment, Antioxidants is a major must for anti-aging and to fight off free radical damage, and Plantsterols to support a balanced endocrine system (basically the hormonal system).  Something also essential is a clean and pure Omega-3 supplement which is good for brain and heart health.  Stamina and a focused mind is essential for a good golf game right?!

I also suggest a more targeted product called BounceBack from Mannatech.  BounceBack capsules is their proprietary blend of proteolytic enzymes and phytosterols. When taken daily over time†, it helps reduce soreness and stiffness due to physical activity and overexertion just like when playing golf for 4-6 hours. I know quite a bit of people, although they have golf carts, they prefer to walk after their 1st drive so they get their much needed physical exercise. Good idea I would say.  I suggested that to my Golfer friends. BounceBack has also been shown to reduce muscle pain and discomfort typically experience 1-3days after intense physical activity or again exertion. It can also improve muscle recovery enabling you to feel better so that you can get back sooner on the fairway feeling great.

I play Golf as well and I take a lot of nutritional products to keep me at my best.  But as a disclaimer to you, this particular product is not intended to improve your handicap other than help you feel great whether you win or not!  I know how it feels to score fantastic in the front 9 and completely suck at the back 9, but at the end of the day, I always enjoy my game and I have fun each time, every time.  I always have a smile on my face.  So Cheers to Good Vibrant Health!  Cheers to your Golf Game!

In summary: When taken daily, over time,† BounceBackcapsules:

Reduce muscle pain and stiffness due to overexertion or physical activity*

Aid the body’s natural recovery process*

Support optimal joint and cartilage health*

Provide immune system support*

Deliver antioxidant support*

Some People Gain Weight Just Looking At Cake.

Sometimes, our bodies just love fat. It loves to keep fat. Just today, after the gym, I came home to cake being made. How can we fight the battle of the bulge if life is like this?

I do have a solution! A natural solution of course. Better to be natural than unnatural.

1. Exercise Regularly like going to the gym and weight-train with plenty of cardio. If you don’t like weight training or cardio, then do some Yoga or Pilates. Group exercise sessions are good too.

2. Keep a low glycemic diet. Like white rice is high glycemic because it turns tosugar right away in the body. Remember, excess sugar turns to fat in the body. Over-cooked carrots is high glycemic while raw carrots is low glycemic. Just look up the Glycemic Index. By the way, for many of you especially Filipinos, stay away from Coke. A-it is all sugar & B-it is just unhealthy. Just keep Coke in check okay. Some of you guys use Coke as your water at the dinner table.

3. Sleep Well (this is a no brainer)

If you need extra support, take an all-natural Fat-loss Support Product with your regiment. Diet, exercise and a Natural target-fat-loss product is a sure-fire way to shed off those unwanted fat around your waist.

Why We Need Antioxidants?

Antioxidants are nutrients called Phytonutrients that protect our bodies from oxidative stress (free radical damage).  Oxidative stress is the process that damages our tissues, our cells, and even our DNA. This kind of damage is sort of like the rusting or the oxidation of metals. So free radical damage rusts our cells… So this type of damage causes us to age faster than we need to.  Breathing our toxic air also causes oxidative stress; we can’t escape it.  On top of that our bodies are less able to cope with this type of stress as we grow older.

Look, we are all going to die at one point sooner or later. But at least as we grow older, we can still have a great quality of life and to truly be as healthy as we can be.  To be Well!

Have you ever met a really health conscious old person that looks young even though he’s like 60 or 70 years old? I have! They all do their natural juicing, exercise, wheat germ, wheat grass, aloe, you name it. They do spend a whole lot of time eating the fruits just to keep their health. The cost to be this healthy is very high as well, but they do not care. Because they treat their bodies with the best things that money can buy.

So, let’s list some Antioxidant Nutrients in some foods.

  • Citrus Fruits – Vitamin C, flavonoids, carotenoids, copper, zinc, selenium
  • Kiwi - Vitamin C, flavonoids, carotenoids, copper, zinc
  • Broccoli - Vitamin C, flavonoids, carotenoids, quercetin, vitamin E, zinc, manganese, copper, glutathione, selenium
  • Parsley – Vitamin C, flavonoids, carotenoids, vitamin E, manganese, copper, zinc, selenium, glutathione
  • Guava – Vitamin C, flavonoids, carotenoids, zinc, selenium
  • Green Pepper - Vitamin C, flavonoids, carotenoids, manganese, copper, zinc, selenium, glutathione
  • Australian Bush Plum - Vitamin C, flavonoids, copper

There are many fruits and veggies that have antioxidants, I just wanted to list some.  The Australian Bush Plum is not an everyday fruit, however, it was found to have high levels of Antioxidants in it.

So, if you don’t eat ample fruits and veggies, then  you have to supplement with an Antioxidant Supplement.  This typically comes from a capsule form.  The super juices is known to be not so super.  Google Pulp Fiction by MSN, it’s a cool article.  You have to do some research in choosing an antioxidant supplement so that it does indeed provide you with antioxidant power.  It’s known that some products although they claim to have antioxidants actually cause oxidative stress as much as smoking a pack of cigarettes.  It’s an unregulated industry folks, what can you expect?  So do  your research!

Go all-natural why don’t you! You’ll end up feeling great and looking great too!  Cheers!

Why We Need Vitamins?

Our bodies need them to break down our foods into individual nutrients and then reassemble these nutrients into cells. Some minerals are also important structural parts of our tissue. A certain level of intake of specific vitamins and minerals are needed for optimal health. So some dieters are at a greater risk of vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Big problem!

It is known that the nutrients we get from our modern diet is deficient in the nutrients we need. Hence, we are nutritionally deficient ourselves. That is why American Medical Association says that it is imperative now to take dietary supplements. About 80+% of nurses and doctors take and recommend dietary supplements and so should you!

There is a huge number of vitamins and mineral products out there. Many dietary supplements have different colors, shapes, prices and labels. What ever they are, not all of them are the same. Perhaps same manufacturer, but different name, label, and price. What I am talking about is how natural is it? How bioactive is it? Bioactive means, that our bodies indeed recognizes the nutrients as food and then absorbs those nutrients for the proper nourishment of our bodies.

In tropical countries like the Philippines, there are various environment issues such as pollution and surely enough, soil depletion (sterile soil). But I believe that Philippine Markets is a great source of nutrient rich food than their American counterparts. They get their fruits and veggies locally and not from some distant lands like we do. This is one of the perks living in a lush tropical country. Pineapples cost less than $1 in the Philippines; 4oPHP is what it usually goes for. I personally eat pineapples for fiber and vitamin c intake and what ever is in the pineapple. You can get various fruits containing other nutrients.

But, we still need dietary supplements because people are eating non-vine-ripen fruits and veggies whether your in the tropics or in America. Vine-ripen fruits and veggies have higher nutrient content than green harvested fruits and veggies. So the only solution is taking a good vitamin and mineral supplement. The good ones are typically more expensive because they are better. Take cheaper supplements and you’ll end up cheating yourself.

Your body is your temple. Take care of it as if it was your brand spankin new Mercedes-Benz. (I prefer Toyota by the way and I take care of it like a Ferrari). But give your body the best that money can buy. If you can’t afford it? Find a way! Never ever say you can’t afford anything, but ask yourself “how can I afford it?” If you do this, then you’ll find a way, don’t worry.

So, Cheers to your Vibrant Optimal Health! Feel free to leave me your comments. I would love to know what you think about this.  See you soon!

This is a cure for boredom and depression folks. Great Show!!!

Chuck is funny! Well, Chuck the show is funny! It’s exciting too, filled with action and suspense. Chuck is also dramatic yet filled with so much fun! Where else can you have a show with a pretty spy, funny Jeffsters, a Captain Awesome and a Nerd Herd like the real life Geek Squad. Chuck is enough to treat your boredom and depression if you have any. Well, at least for the hour you are watching it. Though, many pinoys have the entire season collection, so Chuck Marathons is quite a norm.

I say Chuck is a cure for boredom and depression because I got cured the other day. They say laughter and happiness is the best cure for anything.

Cheers!!!

Naturally, we all look for purpose in our lives. In the USA alone, most people regardless of what they do for a living and how much they earn, the #1 thing people are looking for in the workplace is the feeling of purpose. It was said that people hate just sitting in the desk and filing papers all day. People are naturally looking for some type of purpose in their lives. Typically a noble cause. Something bigger than themselves.

I mean, there is spiritual purpose which is very important and there is secular purpose. I’m talking about Secular Purpose for all of you religious readers. Your spiritual purpose comes from another blog called The Bible. Go read that daily!

Anyhow, when looking for a Job and Business, look for something that is purposeful and meaningful. Something you can get passionate about. Because passion is the driving force in your personal success. Income will come regardless, just focus on what your purpose is and what you are passionate about and you will go far!

So, what is your purpose? Mine? Just watch the video above. That’s my purpose.
