Healthy living for the over 50s

Posted by admin on Nov 3, 2008 in Uncategorized
As you get older and your metabolism changes, your need for certain vitamins and minerals alters too. This doesn’t happen overnight, but is a gradual process for which the age of 50 is a useful benchmark.Recent studies have suggested, for example, that you need more of the B vitamins, especially B2, B5 and B6 to maintain normal blood levels.

As many as three out of ten people over the age of 60 have low blood levels of vitamin B12 due to intestinal changes that reduce absorption. Three out of four older people also have low intakes of folic acid, deficiency of which may increase the risk of coronary heart disease.

Additionally, your ability to make vitamin D in your skin on exposure to sunlight reduces with age, and you therefore need more dietary vitamin D (and calcium) to help keep osteoporosis at bay. Antioxidants (A, C, E and mineral selenium) help to protect against premature ageing, coronary heart disease, deteriorating vision and some cancers, while falling chromium levels are linked with an increased risk of diabetes. Interestingly however, your need for iron goes down — your body stores increase as your muscle bulk reduces. Supplements especially formulated for this age group are readily available.

Vitamin supplements, from Think Natural

None of these are miracle products but can help to aid weight loss as part of a sensible weight management programme in which you eat healthily and take regular exercise.

  • Nature’s Remedies Zotrim is a surefire way to give your diet plans a boost. Containing 3 South American herbs - yerbe mate, damiana and guarana, this supplement makes you feel fuller for longer, so that you’ll eat less at mealtimes and be less tempted to snack. A recent trial in Denmark showed that those taking Zotrim lost an average of 11lbs in 6 weeks while those taking dummy tablets lost less than 1lb. It’s proving to be one of our most popular products, so don’t delay with your order!
  • FSC Figure Trim 8 works on a similar principle. It contains a special mix of ingredients such as kelp, vitamin B6 and boldo extract that act as a balanced aid to slimming. Again it works by promoting a feeling of fullness, so that you can eat less than you usually do and still feel satisfied, and goes on working to help you stop eating between meals.
  • HealthAid Fibre Aid tablets can also help in your slimming quest. Not only does supplementing your diet with extra fibre help you maintain digestive health, it also provides essential bulk so that you feel fuller and can reduce your food intake.
  • Herbal Concepts Weight Loss Aid can also help as part of a calorie-controlled diet. It contains key ingredients such as kelp, dandelion root and boldo, which have traditionally been used to stimulate the metabolic system helping the body to work harder to lose weight.
  • Biolight detox formulas are great for helping you shed the pounds while giving you an overall health boost at the same time. Available in 4 flavours – citrus fruits, island fruits, wild fruits and woodland fruits, these supplements both cleanse your system (boosting vitality and well-being), and promote a weight-curbing action. By getting rid of the toxins that have built up in your system, they help your body to work more efficiently in dealing with fat reserves and fat assimilation. It’s made from fruits, herbs and ocean kelp, and can make a lasting difference in only 3 days.
  • Bional Appleslim This supplement works by stimulating natural body processes to support weight management. It contains apple vinegar obtained from apples and B-vitamins, which together are thought to help digestion and metabolism in the body. Apple-vinegar extract particularly, is believed to keep the digestive system healthy which can make you less hungry for sweet, salty and fatty foods.
  • HealthAid Cider Trim contains cider vinegar which has traditionally been used to help the body’s metabolism and emulsify body fat, and kelp, a natural source of iodine which is said to maintain healthy thyroid function. Can help as part of calorie-controlled diet.
  • HealthAid Mega Strength Chitosan. The key ingredient in this dietary supplement is chitosan which is thought to aid absorption of fat, so can support weight control as part of a calorie-controlled diet.
  • The Fat, Fibre and Carbohydrate Counter Book If you want expert advice on healthy eating, check out this informative book written by Dell Stanford. It offers a complete management plan to keep you fit, healthy and happy and includes easy-to-read nutrition tables to help you check exactly what’s in your favourite foods. Packed with ideas for healthy eating without compromising on flavour, it simply is a must-read!

Dedicated IP address & SEO

Posted by admin on Sep 1, 2008 in SEO Articles

What is a Shared IP? Every domain name that is home to a website has an IP address assigned to it. An IP address is the real address of a website or server. Domain names were developed because it is difficult to remember long IP numbers like 991.341.15.8. Usually, in shared hosting where there are hundreds of websites sharing one server those same sites will share one single IP address. For the hosting company this simplifies the technical aspects of hosting your website. Instead of having a unique IP address for every domain, they can all share one IP address. This makes it easier for them to manage and maintain the servers. The downside to shared IP’s is that if someone sharing your IP happens to get in trouble for spamming or scamming, your IP can get banned or blacklisted. You may not even know it until your site disappears from the search engines or your email start getting blocked by ISPs. In shared hosting the actions of others sharing the server can effect your site and cause problems.

What is a Dedicated IP? Most ecommerce or larger websites have dedicated IP addresses. This means that your site is the only one on the internet using that unique IP number. For example, if you typed 89.145.74.7 into your web browsers address bar you would see Ikroh’s website come up who are a SEO Company. This is their unique address on the web that has been attached to the domain name www.ikroh.com. If you have a business oriented website then you probably will need a dedicated IP address for your site. Especially if you have a merchant account and accept credit card payments on your site. You can’t even get an SSL certificate for your website until you have a dedicated IP address. You can get around this by using a PayPal shopping cart or something else hosted off your site. There is also the SEO or search engine optimisation concerns to consider. Many people have found that sites with a dedicated IP address do mysteriously better in the search engine results than those utilising shared IPs. Often times security concerns drive people to upgrade their hosting account to include a dedicated IP address. The bottom line is that both shared and dedicated IPs can be useful depending on what kind of website you own. The key is to do some research and find out which one is right for you.

For good SEO avoid cookies that block text.
