Water...How It Effects Aging
How many times have your heard ? drink eight to ten glasses of water everyday?
How often do we actually drink that much pure water?Would you believe that as you are reading this page you are dehydrating?
We were all born as grapes, but now we are turning into raisins.
Your body was once more than 70% water and now, if you're like most Americans past the age of 40, you are lucky to have a hydration level above 60%.
The bodies of most hospitalized elderly are less than 50% water.Today, Americans consume more coffee and soft drinks than water.
These beverages, along with tea and alcohol, are diuretics and dehydrate the body.
All the moisturizer in the world will not restore a youthful appearance.
By dehydrating your body you are actually pulling a hundred times as much water out of your skin through the urinary tract.
Much worse than the skin dehydrating, is the dehydration of the internal organs, connective tissue and the brain.Inadequate fluid intake and excess water loss can disrupt critical cell function.
Most people experience this level of hydration all day, nearly everyday.
Water is essential for all anabolic repair functions, and conversely, dehydration accelerates the aging process.
A study at Fred Hutchinson Research Center in Seattle found that women who drank two glasses of water a day had nearly twice the risk of colon cancer than women who drank four glasses a day.
The few women who did drink eight or more glasses of water a day had less than half the risk of those who drank only four glasses.
The association of increased water intake may also reduce the risk for other types of cancer.
In one study, the women who drank the most water were 80% less likely to develop bladder cancer than women who drank the least.
Other conditions that often respond to increased water intake include the reduction of headaches, muscle aches, hangovers, fatigue, constipation, and heartburn.
Drinking enough water will also reduce fluid retention and edema.
Sometimes it is difficult for people to understand that drinking lots of water actually decreases water retention.
If you provide your body with ample amounts of pure water, it will not have to retain water in the tissues
The body can become significantly dehydrated before we actually feel thirsty.In the morning, you have a true need for water, but you may not feel it.
For most people, the first liquid they consume is coffee, a beverage that sucks the water out of our cells.Try this test:
Before you eat or drink anything in the morning, sip about four ounces of water-no more.
You will be surprised to see that in two to three minutes your mouth will feel parched.
Drink another four ounces and in two to three minutes you will be thirsty again.
You may have to repeat this six or more times before you are no longer thirsty.
Add up all the four-ounce servings that you consumed, and you will discover your body's true metabolic need for water..

The Memory Collector
Everyone collects something right?
It may be baseball cards, hats, or some other type of sports memorabilia.
Even if you don't consider yourself a collector of anything, you may be and don't even know it.
How about the collection of tools in the cellar you don't really use, but you have to have them!
Even maybe all those movies laying around you no longer watch, sounds like a collection to me.More common items people typically collect are things like, coins, military items, guns, and sports items.
Generally it will be something that once interested a person, had an impact on their lives or they just simply enjoyed.
Me, I am a collector of shot glasses.
What it was that spawned the interest is beyond me, I think it may have started in college.
I now have a collection of over 300 shot glasses, and yes, I have had at least 1 shot of some type of a concoction from each one of them.
Looking at them now, they are...

Attention Consumers : Irlen Lenses Step Down AS There Are New And Better Dyslexia Glasses In Town
(ContentDesk) April 7, 2006 -- Until recently the most popular dyslexia glasses in the US have been Irlen Tinted Lenses. These were based on the concept that each visual dyslexic's problems were caused by a color unique to that dyslexic and therefore required an expensive personal evaluation to determine that color. A major problem to the consumer with that concept was that because most of the cost involved the evaluation which was received there could not be an effective guarantee. Combine that with a high failure rate and you have a product that is expensive to try with no guarantee of success. The quality standard for success in this method was also low because as soon as a client said this color is better than that one success could be claimed.A different approach and concept was needed .If different colors effected different dyslexics then couldn't it be that the dyslexics were sensitive to several colors and the Irlen Method could only find the color that effected that dyslexic...

Eye Cancer Patients Use New Radiation-blocking Glasses to See and Function During Home Therapy
New, clear-leaded safety glasses allow eye cancer patients to see during week-long sessions of radiation therapy at home, without sacrificing safety, according to a study by Paul T. Finger, MD, director of Ocular Tumor Services at The New York Eye and Ear Infirmary, that was published in the June, 2004 issue of the American Journal of Ophthalmology. ???The best treatment today for tumors that grow inside the eye, called intraocular tumors, is plaque therapy, in which a small bowl-shaped radiation device is placed onto the sclera, the white portion of the eye.
The radiation destroys the tumor, but also passes through other tissue and some exits the eye.
To contain the radiation during treatment, patients, until now, were temporarily blinded because they were required to wear an opaque lead patch.
???"The new, clear-leaded eye glasses vastly improve patients' quality of life during treatment by allowing them to see out of the irradiated eye, and they are just...

Spexmaniac Sees Through Thin Lens Rip-Off
SOMERSET, U.K. (ContentDesk) October 8, 2005 -- Jonathan Guest, Managing Director of Somerset based internet glasses specialist Spexmaniac Limited at ( http://www.spexmaniac.co.uk ) says "Spexmaniac's recent announcement that all glasses would be fitted with Free Thin Lenses has caused quite a stir in the optics industry."With modern manufacturing techniques the price difference between standard and thin lenses is negligible and there is no reason why the consumer should be overcharged. The aggressive nature of the UK glasses industry means that this once monopoly is being challenged on all sides. Guest says "Spexmaniac is particularly proud to be at the forefront bringing quality and value for money to the consumer."He warns all consumers that when buying glasses online or in the High Street "don't be fooled by headline prices or Two 4 One offers.
Look at the total package and the bottom line price.
