Health & Diet Tip:
Mood and Memory Wellness: How to be Spirited and Sharp for 100 Years!
Oliver Wendell Holmes, the American writer and physician, wrote to a colleague poet on her seventieth birthday:
"To be seventy years young is sometimes far more cheerful and hopeful than to be forty years old."
"Few people know how to be old", wrote La Rochefoucauld in his Maximes.
Successful aging becomes increasingly an important issue, as in our "grey world" the segment of the elderly population is on the rise.
In Germany, the number of centenarians was over 4000 in 1993 and is estimated to reach up to 23,000 this year (2000). In the US, the over 85 group is the fastest growing segment of the population.
Mental activity is of paramount importance for maintaining the ability to cope adequately with stress, with health problems, limitations and handicaps, and particularly for the persisting capability to enjoy life.
It is becoming more and more clear that aging is not necessarily equivalent with decay and decrepitude. Factors such as diet, nutrition, physical and mental exercise have been underestimated or ignored as potential moderators of the aging process.
There are risk factors that are known to increase morbidity in the elderly and which can be prevented. They include cigarette smoking, heavy alcohol consumption and inadequate water, mineral and B vitamin intake.
There are studies indicating that much of the cognitive loss in late middle life that has been considered to be intrinsic to aging, is caused in part by extrinsic factors and may therefore be preventable or reversible. Nutritional Tips for Longevity
Antioxidants have been linked to longevity.
A group at Tuft's in Boston has ranked the anti-oxidant activity of a number of fruits and vegetables according to their overall anti-oxidant activity.
They discovered prunes create BY FAR the highest anti-oxidant activity, followed in order by raisins, blueberries, blackberries, kale, strawberries and spinach.
In one group, a 10 oz. serving of fresh, raw spinach scored better than a 1250 mg. dose of vitamin C. An eight ounce serving of vegetables outperformed three glasses of red wine.
In related reports, cherry tomatoes were found to have TEN TIMES the anti-oxidant activity of regular tomatoes. This even though the average tomato contains 10,000 phyto-chemicals.
For maximum anti-oxidant protection, eat 9 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. A ''serving'' is 1 medium size apple, a half cup of fruit or cooked vegetables, a cup of salad vegetables, or 6 oz. of juice.
Remember to eat a wide variety, eating all the colors regularly. Try to eat your fruits and vegetables raw when possible. For those many of you who find this difficult, utilizing a super food "green" drink w/ a wide variety of the above foods in a "live" spray dried form is a highly recommended option to consider.
Then take an anti-oxidant rich multi-vitamin/mineral , usually iron free or low iron (less than 3 mg) several times a day with meals.
Motivational Quote:
"A dream is just a dream. A goal is a dream with a plan
and a deadline."
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the
things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw
off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the
trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
"Fun is about as good a habit as there is."

Our skin is the largest organ for the human body.
Did you know that?
Yet it gets neglected the most!
So whether you are female or male, please remember that your skin, the largest organ in the human body, requires just as much care as your insides.
Research has shown that by taking positive steps toward improving what you eat and how you look and think, you can help your body look younger for a longer period of time.
While wellness begins on the inside by nourishing your cells with the proper balance of vitamins, minerals and nutrients, it’s also essential on the outside of the body.
A glowing, radiant face and silky, smooth skin are all representations of total wellness. That’s why the products you put on the outside of your body should be as nourishing as the ones you take internally.

Editor’s notes & Humour:
Green Tea Diet Plan
Eating and dieting these days do not usually involve your favorite beverages like green tea and coffee. But this is not always necessarily the case. With some bit of planning and a lot of discipline, your diet plan and weight regime can include your morning cups of coffee or green tea.
An idea formulated by Dr. Agatston, the South Beach Diet plan is not low-carb, nor low-fat. According to its originator, the South Beach Diet plan “teaches you to rely on the right carbs and the right fats.”
This diet plan is comprised of three phases – Banishing your Cravings, Reintroducing Carbs, and A Diet for Life. Using artificial sweetener and low-fat milk in your coffee or green tea during all three phases is one way to go on losing weight without having to give up your brewed cup. Going decaf with your coffee might also be a good idea since the objective of this diet is maintaining even insulin levels. If you’re a green tea drinker, then there is less worries for you. Green tea contains only very few amounts of caffeine.
The Zone Diet Plan
The Zone Diet plan was developed by Barry Sears, a former biotechnology researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This diet plan is based on the maintenance and consistency of insulin levels. Because this diet plan also concerns itself with insulin control, the issues that arise are handled similarly as that with the South Beach Diet plan. Taking decaffeinated coffee and green tea is all right as long as these beverages don’t spike up your insulin. The eating program of the Zone Diet plan requires you to use artificial sweetener and low-fat milk in your coffee or green tea.
Atkins Diet Plan
Blood Type Diet Plan
The Blood Type Diet plan is a weight loss regimen where the foods you eat are based on your blood type. The eating program of the Blood Type Diet plan is more restricted compared to the South Beach Diet plan, the Zone Diet plan, and the Atkins Diet plan. For instance, for people with blood types A and AB, coffee is highly advised. But for those with blood types O, adding coffee to the Blood Type Diet plan should be avoided. Green teas on the other hand are acceptable for any blood types. However, adding natural sweeteners like sugar, honey, stevia, or maple syrup in green tea should be avoided in this diet plan.
Sugar Busters Diet Plan
The name of the diet plan says it all. Subscribers to this diet plan are highly cautioned against sugars. Coffee and green teas are perfectly fine but only use artificial sweeteners.
Paleolithic Diet Plan
Also called the Stone Age Diet plan, this diet plan is based on the consumption of simple, unprocessed foods that our Neanderthal ancestors would have eaten. This diet plan is perfect for green tea drinkers. Green tea is simple and 100% natural steamed dried leaves from the Camellia sinensis plant. If you’re a coffee drinker, you might be in for a tougher choice since you might have to give up coffee all together with this diet plan. Sugars in green teas are still a big no-no, especially the refined kind. We of course, recommend the only healthy nutrition plan that we know works, guaranteed!
