Your Body WANTS To Fight The Flu
by: Generation Health
The body's immune system is our first line of defense against attacks from germs, bacteria, and viral agents like the flu. The immune system detects these harmful invaders and begins the process of isolating and destroying them. But the immune system only works if it has the fuel that it needs.
You see, the immune system is called a "system" because it is comprised of various organs and sub systems that work together in harmony. The major parts of the immune system include:
Thymus
Spleen
Lymph system
Bone marrow
White blood cells
Antibodies
Complement system (30 specific proteins which circulate in our blood plasma).
Hormones
Each part of the immune system depends upon proper nutrition in order to be able to function at peak efficiency. If even one component of the immune system under-performs, the entire system is at risk of failing. A failed immune system leaves the body with no protection from any type of attack. That's why HIV and AIDS are such devastating diseases.
Unfortunately, most people have diets that fail to provide even the minimum nutritional levels that our immune systems requires to do its work. And that's one of the major reasons why this flu season may be the worst one ever. Citizens of developed countries are eating diets that are high in saturated fats and sugars and low in vitamins and minerals. Many citizens of underdeveloped nations are suffering from malnutrition and even starvation. Whether the immune system is affected by too much of the wrong food, or not enough of any food is not what's important right now. What is important is that most people's immune systems are ill prepared to ward off this latest flu menace.
But you don't have to let your immune system fail you when you need it the most. You have options.
You can give your body's immune system exactly what it needs to operate a peak efficiency, and you can do it without having to eat a variety of special foods or ingesting handfuls of vitamins and minerals. All you need to do is Winterize your body by taking just one capsule per day. See it now at http://www.winterizenow.com.

Importance of Vitamins In Your Life
Importance of Vitamins In Your Life
by: Olivia Harding
Natural vitamins are those organic food substances which are found only in plants and animals, i.e., living things. The body is not able to synthesize or manufacture vitamins (although there are a few exceptions to this). Because of this, they must be supplied either directly in the diet, or by way of dietary supplements. Vitamins are vital if our body is to function normally. They are absolutely necessary for our growth, general-well being and vitality.
Vitamins cannot be assimilated without ingesting food. This is why it is suggested that vitamins must be taken with a meal. They help to regulate the body?s metabolism, assist in forming the bone and tissue, and help convert fat and carbohydrates. However, one must remember that vitamins cannot replace food.
We shall now look at the importance of each of the vitamins by turn.

When You Need Answers... Be Careful How You Ask For Them
When You Need Answers... Be Careful How You Ask For Them
by: Laurie Weiss
Especially when you are in a situation where a misstep can cause real problems...
1. Before you ask anything, gather as much information as you can about a situation by careful observation.
* Listen to the topics that are discussed
* Notice topics that are not discussed.
* Pay attention to nonverbal clues -- posture, tone of voice
* Notice relative power positions of the people present in the situation -- even furniture placement and seating arrangements.
2. Think about what additional information you need to better understand the situation. Look for the missing pieces.
3. Use your intuition. What is your hunch or guess aboutwhat is going on? What do you wish you knew?
4. Ask questions only when you are truly unsure of what the answers will be.
5. Listen carefully to the answers that are presented to you.

Quit Smoking - Prepare To Succeed
Quit Smoking - Prepare To Succeed
by: David Olsen
For many smokers the desire to quit smoking is strong?yet it seems no matter what they do, they just can?t seem to break this devastating habit. The inability to quit smoking causes many to privately belittle themselves and curse their seeming weakness.
For others it seems they simply wake up one morning and decide to quit smoking. What makes the difference in these people? Is someone who decides to quit smoking like this a stronger person than the one who has yet to become a non-smoker? Let?s evaluate.
First off, most people even smokers don?t really enjoy smoking. For some the nicotine addiction is strong. Nicotine is very addictive, and breaking this addiction by not smoking can be very trying and difficult. Even after months have passed, there are those who will start smoking again. So, if you?re one who has yet to quit smoking don?t berate or belittle yourself.
By the same token,...
