Trimspa with Anna Nicole Smith

Trimspa used to contain Ephedra, a supplement now banned in the US. But they remodelled their formula, added a celebrity endorsement from Anna Nicole Smith and relaunched their product. However, her recent death has created doubt about whether the Trimspa brand will survive.

Anna Nicole first tried Trimspa in 2003 and reportedly lost 69lbs in 6 months. She admitted to doing regular colon cleanses and changing her diet. But she claims that Trimspa was responsible for most of the weight loss.


Trimspa contains two major ingredients:

- Hoodia Gordonii.. a plant native to South America that is currently the most sought after weight loss supplement on the market
- Glucomannan.. a water soluble dietary fiber that expands in the stomach to reduce appetite

Trimspa does have some reported side effects - occasionally users have complained of anxiety, insomnia and migraines. Other users have found it more effective to buy Hoodia and Glucomannan separately, rather than in the Trimspa package. Trimspa is also expensive and this makes it tough for everyone to afford - make sure to set aside at least $50 a month.

Natural ways to increase testosterone by Dr.Savitha Suri

Testosterone hormone is produced by testicles in men. It is responsible for development of male sexual characters like physical strength, muscle mass, body shape, body hair, deep voice, sexual function etc. Erectile dysfunction occurs when testosterone level is reduced. But this is not the only cause for erectile dysfunction.

Causes for low testosterone levels:

Age: The testosterone level in blood start reducing as age advances .Usually it starts between 35 to 45 years of age. Irrespective of age the andropause in men sets in as the testosterone level starts dipping.

Injury to testicles: Testicles are prone to injury as they are suspended outside the abdomen. Injury to both testicles can reduce testosterone production

Infection of testicles: If mumps infection during adolescence or early adult hood involves testicles it may affect testosterone production

Cancer treatments: The treatments for cancers like chemotherapy or radiation therapy may temporarily cause reduction of testosterone levels. But some times it may become permanent.

Diseases : Chronic kidney related diseases, Cirrhosis of liver, Sarcoidosis, chronic illness etc can also cause low testosterone levels .

Medications: Corticosteroid medications and medicines used to treat prostate cancer can cause lowered testosterone level.

Herbal Remedies For Acid Reflux by Ricky Lim

There are many different kinds of herbal remedies for acid reflux that you can try in order to help treat the problem and which you can purchase either from a health food store or online.

Generally acid reflux remedies come in the form or either capsules, pills or solutions. But what is important is that if you are someone who is already suffering from acid reflux and is being treated by their doctor, then you should discuss the issues with your doctor as to whether you can consume the herbal remedies together with what your doctor has prescribed.

In most cases people who suffer from acid reflux find that they suffer with a burning sensation in both the chest and stomach area. Generally people who are found to be overweight, who smoke or who drink too much alcohol (are alcoholics) will suffer more from this particular problem.

Acid reflux is caused when acids found in the stomach are able to gain entry into the esophagus and is often a sign that most people commonly associate by stomach indigestion.

A lot of the herbal remedies for acid reflux will often contain such natural herbs as chamomile, slippery elm, chicory root, peppermint, lavender and ginger. These particular herbs have been found to help protect the lining of a person's stomach as well as helping to strengthen their digestive system. But in order to ensure that they are effective a person will need to be using them for long periods of time.

The main reason why these remedies have become so popular today is that they contain only natural ingredients and the chances of them causing any kind of side effects (compared to prescribed medications) are very few if any at all. They are especially effective for treating infants and young children when it is sometimes very difficult to actually provide a diagnosis that they are suffering from acid reflux.

However for adults the best way to treat acid reflux naturally is by making changes to your lifestyle and the kinds of foods that you consume. So you should start to decrease or eliminate the amount of alcohol you drink and if you smoke you should try to quit.

Plus you need to reduce the amount of acidic and a fatty food that you consume includes chocolates, tomatoes and coffee all of which can cause acid reflux.

But as well as making changes to their diet and lifestyle, if you also use herbal remedies for acid reflux, you will soon find that you are able to treat the problem much more easily and will suffer less from the symptoms caused by acid reflux.

Water: weight loss miracle? by Sharon Bell

When people ask, "What can I do to lose weight?" what they're really asking is, "What can I do to lose weight that doesn't require exercise or giving up all the junk foods I eat?" When it comes to weight loss, consumers are looking for a magic bullet - a miracle that eliminates the responsibility of having to actually make adult decisions about their own health.

Researchers from the University of Minnesota Water Resource Center have recently come up with a short guide on drinking water to lose weight. Does that sound like a weight loss miracle to you?

Water helps suppress appetite naturally and drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day will help you lose weight and burn fat.

Some people don't drink enough water when they diet thinking they'll lose weight. But the opposite happens. If you don't drink enough water every day, your body may be storing water and fat that you don't need.

You need water for your body to burn fat. Without water, your kidneys can't do their job properly and your liver must pitch in to help. While helping the kidneys, your liver can't burn fat so some of it that is normally used as fuel is stored in your body instead. Drinking more water helps the liver get back to its own job of turning fat into fuel.

Your body needs water since it's 60 percent water. But if you don't drink enough, your body thinks it's in danger and tries to hold onto all the water it can get. The water is stored between the cells and shows up as extra weight. Your feet, legs and hands may even swell up. When your body gets enough water, the stored water is released.

The more water you drink, the less you'll eat. Water is nature's own appetite suppressant. A glass of water before eating will help you feel full and eat less. You'll also get rid of extra salt by drinking water.

Drink at least 8 eight-ounce glasses of water every day. If you're overweight, drink an additional glass for every 25 pounds of excess weight. Cold water is best since it is easily absorbed and burns more calories. Avoid cola drinks or anything with caffeine. Caffeine is a diuretic that will get rid of water.

Live a healthy lifestyle, drink water, and lose weight. Remember that the miracle of losing weight starts from within. Drugs like Zyroxin can also help you slim down and firm up those muscles. Check out www.zyroxin.com for more weight loss information.
