Bluffton, S.C. (PRWEB) May 08, 2012

In a ground breaking effort to take a more active role in eradicating the effects of obesity and bullying on teens nationwide, The Independence, MO School District and MindStream Academy have formed a carefully crafted partnership merging health and education. This benchmark program aims to identify kids within the school district whose ability to excel in school are compromised due to a variety of issues including poor attendance patterns, weight issues, social isolation and bullying. Early intervention teens will be enrolled in MindStream Academy for a semester or more where their needs can be addressed on an individualized basis.

This program was the brainchild of three national obesity and health advocates including Dr. David Katz, Editor-in-Chief, Childhood Obesity and Director of Yale University’s Prevention Research Center, Dr. Jim Hinson, Superintendent for Independence, MO School District and Ray Travaglione, founder and CEO of MindStream Academy.

The Independence, MO School District is actively engaged with the Alliance for a Healthier Generation as well as a pioneer in health promotion programming. According to Superintendent Dr. Jim Hinson, “health and wellness initiatives are an important part of our school district culture. We believe academic achievement works synergistically with health and wellness. We want to set a precedent not only for the children who deserve the best our system can provide, but also serve as a role model for other schools and districts to follow”.

MindStream Academy (http://www.mindstreamacademy.com) is an emerging leader in the fight against childhood obesity and the restoration of optimal health and wellness for teens. The Academy offers both a year round program as well as a summer program under the daily guidance of counselors, educators, fitness instructors, dieticians and chefs. Their approach is comprehensive and includes all areas of transformation needed to live a long-term healthy and productive life. According to Ray Travaglione, the founder and CEO of MindStream Academy, “I wanted to create a place that was specifically designed to meet the growing needs of teens and tweens who are at a critical crossroads in their lives. Kids in peril right now cannot wait on the world to change to get their lives back- and neither should we. There is a world available right now and our kids don’t need to go through the doors of an operating room to get there. Let’s give lifestyle a chance to work its magic.”

The visionary behind this idea was Dr. David Katz, MD, MPH, FACPM, FACP, widely recognized as the leading international authority on nutrition, weight management, and the prevention of chronic disease. He saw the immediate need for a small coalition of leaders ready to address the significant needs of teens battling obesity and bullying. “Many factors in the modern world conspire against health and weight control- for children and adults alike” says Dr. Katz, “as a result, some kids (and adults) are in dire peril- confronting both poor health, and its insult via bullying/persecution and the injury of what ill health does to us. This partnership is really that important first step.”

This program is already producing evidence of success with its students. In addition to meeting and exceeding their individual weight loss goals, students are also creating a fresh new perspective and mind set to go back into their homes and communities and pursue their passions in life.

MindStream students report when they return to their traditional school setting, they have improved test scores and grades. Affected schools are also seeing a reduction in absenteeism, dropout rates and visits to the nurse’s office.

MindStream alumni can return as ambassadors to help and inspire change within their fellow students, school faculty and the community at large. These kids can become a voice of understanding and reasoning as well as a resource for those that don’t know where to turn.

This newly formed alliance will begin implementation in the Independence Missouri School District, but will be reaching out to other school superintendents and districts with invitations to participate. Their mutual long term goal is for active participation across state lines as a national initiative.

About MindStream Academy:

MindStream Academy (http://www.mindstreamacademy.com) is a full-service boarding school on a pristine 43-acre horse farm in South Carolina for teens and tweens who want to get healthy, fit, lose weight, take control of their lives, build self-esteem, and pursue a personal passion.

Golden, CO (PRWEB) February 10, 2012

Earlier this week, on February 6, 2012, Dr. Oz did a show on what he called the “miracle in a bottle to burn your fat” and featured raspberry ketones as the #1 solution, no matter what your body type.

According to Dr. Oz, raspberry ketones, as found in iSatori’s popular fat burner Curvelle, help the body burn fat easier. As a plus, they’re completely natural, as they come from raspberries.

Unfortunately, though, individuals can’t just eat raspberries to get raspberry ketones, as they’d have to eat 90 pounds to equal the proper amount. Fortunately, Curvelle contains the scientifically studied amount of quality raspberry ketones for fat burning.

Check out what was said on Dr. Oz here:

http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/miracle-fat-burner-bottle?hs317=billboard_3

Now anyone who wants to boost their fat-burning potential can benefit from raspberry ketones (along with other proven fat-boosting ingredients) with Curvelle (http://www.isatoritech.com/curvelle). The natural ingredients uniquely combined to create the Curvelle formula have been heavily researched and were included based on the positive results of several clinical trials.

“Curvelle is different, which is why it’s gotten such great feedback,” explains Stephen Adele, CEO of iSatori Technologies, the makers of Curvelle (http://www.isatoritech.com/curvelle). “It contains only all-natural ingredients that have been shown to help control appetite, especially emotionally triggered eating, and burns excess calories for energy, along with the highest quality antioxidants to help you look great and feel healthy and energetic.”

Curvelle is available in some high-end supplement retail stores, as well as online directly from the manufacturer at isatoritech.com. To find out more about raspberry ketones and Curvelle, visit isatoritech.com/Curvelle (http://www.isatoritech.com/curvelle).”

Retailers interested in carrying Curvelle should contact Europa Sports, America’s largest sports nutrition distributor, at 1-800-447-4795, or visit http://www.EuropaSports.com.

Based in Golden, Colorado, iSatori Technologies was founded in early 2002 by Stephen Adele to provide clinically tested nutritional supplements and is the only company dedicated to providing complete dietary and exercise solutions for building a better body and living a healthier, richer life. iSatori’s life-enhancement, weight-loss, and muscle-building supplements, such as PWR™, Eat-Smart® bars, MORPH MegaDrive™, FLASH POINT™, Amino-Phase™, Isa-Test™, Lean System 7®, Energize®, MX-LS7™, Curvelle, MORPH™, and Liquid MORPH+™ are available in over 31,000 retail stores nationwide, including GNC and online at drugstore.com, as well as in 12 countries. iSatori recently received the industry’s NBJ Gold Award for Growth in Small Companies category.

Mark Macdonald

(PRWEB) February 08, 2012

Health and wellness leader MonaVie has launched the “90-day MonaVie RVLution,” a weight loss movement that uses its RVL Premier Weight Loss System in combination with Venice Nutrition Creator and NY Times Bestselling Author Mark Macdonald’s “Body Confidence” program.

Macdonald, who serves as spokesperson for RVLution, will appear at meetings across the country to lead the program, explain its successful philosophy and help local MonaVie distributors convince attendees to, “Ditch the diet and join the RVLution,” to gain permanent control of their weight and health. The meetings will be free to the public and will consist of education, free product sampling and an exercise program led by Macdonald. Upcoming meetings will be February 10 in Columbia, MO, February 11 in Kansas City, February 18 in Atlanta and February 25 in Chicago.

“Mark and RVL are a perfect combination,” says MonaVie Chief Marketing Officer Jeff Cohen, “and the 90-day MonaVie RVLution provides the perfect way for people to lose weight, get healthy, stay fit and win prizes. Everyone should go to our Web site and sign up to become RVLutionaries!”

As “leader of the RVLution,”Macdonald says that the MonaVie program merges “the best weight loss product with the most complete weight management plan on the market,” and that those who commit to the program will see significant, sustainable results. He maintains that both the RVL products and the Body Confidence program are designed to stabilize blood sugar, which is key to sustainable weight management, because stabilization prevents the body from storing fat or burning muscle.

Macdonald explains, “Stabilizing blood sugar is essential for losing fat and gaining the lean body mass that turns the body into a calorie-burning machine. Balanced blood sugar also cures the body of hunger pangs and cravings that can easily derail those trying to lose weight.” MonaVie’s RVL line has a perfect blend of macro- and micro-nutrients, as well as powerful phytonutrients that optimize cellular health, to help manage weight in a healthy way. Featuring a delicious meal replacement shake, a nutritious snack bar and an all-natural, metabolism-boosting supplement, RVL provides the body with the ingredients that will stabilize blood sugar and ignite an individual’s metabolism.

The RVL product line dovetails perfectly with Macdonald’s Body Confidence program that focuses on three key nutrition principles: 1) Frequent meals that keep blood sugar levels steady and help to prevent overeating and blood sugar spikes; 2) Maintaining correct nutrition ratios—getting the right balance of protein, carbohydrates and fat in every meal; and 3) Managing meal size—eating smaller meals every few hours keeps blood sugar levels steady. It also features 30 minutes of physical activity five to seven days a week.

Macdonald says the power of the RVL/Body Confidence program is that it works and is sustainable in the long-term, because it’s not based on fads, quick promises or dramatic changes in diet. “This program is for anyone who seeks to break the cycle of crash dieting and extreme exercise programs that almost always end in failure. The 90-day RVLution is a way to embark on a smart, sustainable plan to achieve the body you’ve always wanted.”

Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) April 30, 2012

Amen Clinics, Inc. introduces the first-ever Brain and Body Makeover Challenge, which invites people nationwide to compete along with Austin Andrews, former contestant of television’s hit series “The Biggest Loser,” to transform their mental and physical health.

Participants can enroll in the program online, and purchase the materials, then submit “before” and “after” pictures on or before September 3, 2012. The person with the most dramatic brain and body transformation will win a trip for two at Hawaii’s Aston Waikiki Circle resort, including a three-night stay and air fare. Other prizes will be awarded to the top 10 finishers. Click here for rules. See rules here.

“Studies show that adding incentives, and group support, significantly increase the effectiveness of making lifestyle changes,” said Daniel G. Amen, MD, founder of Amen Clinics, Inc and author of five New York Times best-selling books including his latest “Use Your Brain to Change Your Age.” “So we are giving Austin, and anyone else, both incentive and a community as well as numerous tools and education which ultimately give participants the best chance to have a better brain and better life.”

During the Brain and Body Makeover Challenge, participants receive three-month access to an online community to gain accountability, helpful tools, make new friends, share ideas, recipes and much more at The Amen Solution @ Home.

Andrews, who weighed in at 396 pounds on national television, then lost 174 pounds while at the “Ranch,” quickly regained more than 65 pounds after being a finalist on the show. While on “The Biggest Loser,” Andrews says the environment was conducive to getting healthy because of the accountability and group support.

“But afterwards, I didn’t have the group or the accountability and I was back to making my own decisions,” Andrews said. “Now I recognize that ‘decisions’ are a brain health issue that I neglected.”

After taking the brain type assessment, offered in the materials, Andrews says his goal is to lose 30 pounds and improve his memory by the end of this challenge. Andrews will be sharing his progress, tips, and other experiences while on “The Biggest Loser” during the Brain and Body Makeover Challenge via blog, tweets on Twitter and Facebook posts.

“I learned the two extremes of overeating, and intensive weight loss,” said Andrews who is 22 years-old and resides in Pasadena, California. “But now I want to have a healthy brain, and a healthy life, and plan to inspire others to do the same.”

The program materials include Dr. Amen’s best-selling “Change Your Brain, Change Your Body” book and DVD, BMI wheel, Daily Journal, Questionnaire, and the “Brain Doctor’s Wife Cookbook and Coaching Guide by Tana Amen, “Your Ultimate Brain/Body Makeover” 6 CD set and three months of Elite membership to The Amen Solution at Home, a total value of 6. During the challenge, participants can buy the program for 9.95.

Amen, M.D. Amen Clinics now has locations in Newport Beach and San Francisco, California, Bellevue, Washington and Reston, Virginia (http://www.amenclinics.com).

Chino Hills, CA (PRWEB) April 25, 2012

Fitness Boot Camp Franchise Fit Body Boot Camp has put together a national campaign to bring awareness to the growing obesity problem in America. The 1,000 LB. Meltdown Challenge’s goal is to get local residents of participating cities to lose 1,000 pounds in 28 days. All participants who sign-up for the 1,000 pound Melt-Down Challenge will be charged for the 28-day program, and all proceeds will be donated to charity.

“The goal is to inspire and motivate residents to lose weight as part of Fit Body Boot Camp’s Vision to expose and engage twenty percent of the world’s population to a healthy and fit lifestyle by 2020,” says Bedros Keuilian, co-founder of Fit Body Boot Camp. “Obesity isn’t just a personal problem. It is a national and a global problem.”

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there has been a dramatic increase in obesity in the United States. More than one-third of the U.S. adults are obese, and approximately 17% of children and adolescents are obese.    

A recent study in the New England Journal of Medicine found that people with close bonds set a great example for one another; if they gain weight together, they can also lose it together.

“By providing heavily discounted boot camp workouts for participants who sign-up for the 1,000-pound Meltdown Challenge, it is Fit Body Boot Camp’s intent to further promote the fight against the obesity epidemic by getting as many people as we can to participate,” says Keuilian. “It is imperative that we inspire more people to work out, to become healthy and to participate in exercise by taking away the main barrier to entry, which is cost. Since all proceeds are donated to charity, it makes it even more special.”

Fit Body Boot Camp Owners are also providing participants with nutritional guidance and weight loss tracking during their 28-day workout program to further help them reach their personal goals.

The initial roll-out of the 1,000-pound Meltdown Challenge will be on May 7th and in the following cities: La Jolla, CA; San Clemente, CA; Santa Clarita, CA; Fort Collins, CO; Orlando, FL; Pinellas Park, FL; Tampa West, FL; Takoma Park, MD; Sewell, NJ; Albuquerque, NM; Deer Park NY; and Portland, OR.

Erin Van Veldhuizen, DC now offers natural treatments to help reduce and eliminate symptoms of fatigue, tiredness and low-energy among men and women in Dallas, Texas. This not only minimizes the need for medication but also promotes overall health and wellness. There are several people experienced in treating the symptoms of adrenal stress and fatigue in Dallas, but Dr. Erin is one of the few to evaluate immune, endocrine, and nervous systems together. While medication may be recommended, it is not always able to alleviate the condition or its symptoms entirely.

Dr. Van Veldhuizen explains, “We use cutting-edge technology and research to best serve patients experiencing chronic fatigue and adrenal stress in Dallas. Our patients experience more than just symptomatic relief from their primary condition; they gain a lifetime of optimal health throughout their whole body.

Each patient undergoes a thorough evaluation of his or her complete health including conditions of the spine, brain, organs and systems before determining the right course of action.

Studies suggest that 80% of people experience adrenal fatigue and/or stress at some point in their lives and do not realize it. The adrenal glands produce hormones that are responsible for many important bodily functions such as:

    Producing energy
    Regulating blood pressure
    Normalizing blood sugar
    Balancing fluids and electrolytes
    Responding appropriately to stress

In addition, they work with other systems and glands to maintain general health and wellness. The increased pressures of an active lifestyle are some of the causes of adrenal stress.

Symptoms of adrenal stress include:

    Chronic tiredness
    Difficulty getting up in the morning and/or still feeling tired after a night’s sleep
    Low-energy during the day
    Decreased ability to handle stress
    Decreased immune system

Houston, TX (PRWEB) April 23, 2012

“Why are there so many people who are overweight? Don’t they like to live healthy and keep their weight under control? Of course they do, but getting the right information about losing weight is not easy with so much misinformation around” says Andrew Simmons, creator of the website. He further explains that “Health & Fitness Pro website was created so that the public has access to reliable and highly informative content that provides a wealth of information about overcoming weight issues. With obesity continuing to rise, especially in the western countries, even governments have given this issue priority by formulating national plans to educate the public about the health risks and how to overcome them by eating healthy. Even fast food giants are now compelled to offer people a choice to order a healthy meal.” According to Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), If obesity is not controlled, 75% of Americans will be overweight by 2020.

“Among the people who are overweight, for the majority of them, losing belly fat is their primary concern and Health & Fitness Pro stresses on that strongly” says Andrew Simmons. “Losing stomach fat is not difficult if you know how to approach it with the right mindset. Though losing this stubborn fat does require some work it has become less difficult now as there are many proven methods that can help” he adds. More on shrinking stomach size from Health & Fitness Pro – http://www.healthnfitnesspro.com/diet-to-lose-belly-fat.php

Andrew Simmons further states that “Many people don’t even try to attempt to lose weight because they love food too much and cannot stand the thought of starving or staying hungry to lose weight. With the rap the diet programs have got with unsuccessful fad diets flooding the market, who would blame them? The key here is not to starve but to boost your metabolism with an eating plan like the metabolic diet that will turn your body into a fat burning furnace.” More about the metabolic diet from Health & Fitness Pro – http://www.healthnfitnesspro.com/metabolic-type-diet.php

This website covers other health issues and explains about how to speed up the metabolism, how menopause can affect weight gain, causes of belly fat, natural supplements and even cellulite solutions. Information is also available on what to eat during pregnancy so that proper nutrition is received by the mother and baby, without overeating. This can be very helpful when the mother needs to get back into shape after giving birth. Health & Fitness Pro guides people who are looking to lose weight without taking shortcuts or risking their health. More on ways to melt the fat from Health & Fitness Pro – http://www.healthnfitnesspro.com/lose-tummy-fat.php

According to Andrew Simmons “Visitors to this website can find in-depth information on not only how to lose weight, but keeping it off too. This is where many people get demoralized. That is after losing weight they are unable to maintain the new weight and start to pile on the pounds again. The not so ‘secret’ to weight loss is changing a persons’ current lifestyle that is the cause of the weight issues, to a much healthier lifestyle. It is mostly about the right food choices, being more active and a positive outlook.”

Health & Fitness Pro provides sensible information on tackling weight problems. Emphasis is made on having the right mindset to prepare you for those “give up” moments, enabling anyone to achieve lasting success.
