Scientists have long marveled how some people in certain countries live remarkably long, healthy lives while we, in the west, suffer from high rates of chronic diseases and other health problems.

Computer analysis has enabled researchers to determine which populations are the healthiest and live the longest and analyze what these populations have in common.

The results point to one key factor; diet. The healthiest groups eat certain foods in much higher quantities - these foods have come to be called super foods.

Common problems such as lack of energy, poor skin and hair, and dramatic mood swings as well as serious problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure and certain cancers can also now be traced to poor nutrition.

Scientists have analyzed the super foods that these healthy populations eat and found they contain hundreds of micro-nutrient compounds, vitamins and antioxidants. A growing body of research from laboratory and human studies suggests that these nutrients work best in concert with each other, or synergistically.

Bottom line: Giving your body the right micronutrients in the right combination can make a huge difference to how long you live, how much energy you have, how often you get sick and even whether you get certain types of cancer or heart disease.

The problem of course is that we all live busy complicated lives. In a world of processed food and limited time, it is unrealistic to think we can eat the optimum diet including all of these super foods.

Enter San Diego, CA based www.superfoodsrx.com. This new company has addressed this problem by developing a daily nutritional supplement designed to provide the same mix of super-nutrients that are found in the so called super foods.

Dr. Steven Pratt is the developer of this remarkable nutritional system. A best selling author of nutrition and longevity books, Dr. Pratt also consults for top athletes and is a senior staff member at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, California.

Just how remarkable is the supplement. Dr Pratt commented, “The nutrients and antioxidants we use in SuperFoodsRx have been shown to decrease symptoms of fatigue and to increase the effectiveness of dieting by helping to reduce the appetite and boost metabolism. They have also been linked to a lower incidence of cancer, diabetes and heart disease. There are several key micro-nutrients we included that can help to improve your complexion and strengthen hair and nails and the premium omega 3 found in SuperFoodsRx has been proven to reduce stress and mood-swings and improve memory and focus.”

SuperFoodsRx is currently offering a free trial of their supplement system. You can learn more about the free trial offer at www.superfoodsrx.com

When a person simply takes the effort to walk, let’s say for example about 2 blocks from their house, this can actually be able to burn off extra body fat. It is a low intensity type of cardio exercise compared to the higher type intensity form of exercise which would entail you to actually run to get those extra fats off.

However, the biggest question then would be which is more effective? Recent studies have shown that during intensive exercise, the body burns out glycogen. Glycogen herein is stored in the liver and in the muscles in the form of stored carbohydrates. It is necessary as it provides energy during low intensity exercises.

When the public heard about this, they resorted to switching their daily regimen form of exercise into simple walking-low intensity type form to burn fats. This would explain that there are still numerous people out there having weight problems, which seems to have trouble getting off those excessive fats off.

Little did these people know that the best, ideal and most effective way to get those fats off is to dig those heels in and start running. This type of high intensity form of exercise would surely be able to work effectively if done as well at a continuous and regular pace. When a person is having high intensity form of exercise, after such regimen, the body actually still continues to burn those calories. It boosts the body’s metabolism burning out excessive fats and calories even if you’re done in the gym or when you’re just taking a break after a long run.

It’s best to integrate both low and high intensity form of cardio exercise. That way the body itself, especially the heart, does not get stressed out too much. Take the time to take turns in doing both: do brisk walking after a jog. Do deep breathing exercises and take time to enjoy the scenery before going and out again for another sprint.

It’s best and advisable to learn to listen to your body. Know when to stop and to listen to what your body is telling you. Mind you, if you keep this exercise regimen at a regular pace, you would be in no time in tip top shape. Those extra fats and pounds would surely be shed off healthily and naturally. Do remember, what you eat plays a vital role as well in the success of your weight loss.
