Beware of the Potato Salad: Preventing Foodborne Illness in Summer
HealthDay – 2 hrs 3 mins ago SATURDAY, July 21 (HealthDay News) -- Ever eye a bowl of potato salad or plate of chicken that's been sitting in the sun for hours and wonder if it's still OK to eat?
View the Original article
Warm weather means that bacteria in food can multiply faster and potentially pose a health threat, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warns.
The FDA offers the following safety advice to help prevent foodborne illnesses during barbecue and picnic season:
Wash your hands well and often with soap and water for 20 seconds, especially after using the bathroom and before cooking or eating. If there are no water taps available, use a water jug, some soap and paper towels or moist disposable towelettes.Keep raw food separate from cooked food. Do not place cooked food on a plate that previously held raw meat, poultry, seafood or anything else and hasn't been cleaned in hot, soapy water.Marinate food in the refrigerator, not on the counter. Don't reuse marinade that contained raw meat.Cook food thoroughly in order to kill any harmful bacteria that may be present. Use a food thermometer to make sure food has reached the recommended minimum temperature, which is 160 degrees F for hamburger and 165 degrees F for chicken. If you use the microwave, stove or oven to partially cook food to reduce grilling time, do so immediately before you place the food on the barbeque.Try to refrigerate or freeze leftovers immediately. Never leave food out for more than an hour when the temperature is above 90 degrees F.Keep hot foods at or above 140 degrees F and keep cold foods at or below 40 degrees F.More information
The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Food Safety and Inspection Service has more about summer and foodborne illness.

Cleveland-Lorain-Elyria, OH (1888PressRelease) July 07, 2012 - Urban Active Fitness hosts its very popular Zumba class for "Fitness In The Village" this summer on Sunday, July 8th from 10-11 AM.

The class is open to the public for all ages and skill levels to help the community get healthy and gain the benefits of working out outdoors!
According to the Huffington Post, a 2011 study found that outdoor exercise was associated with greater decreases in tension, confusion, anger and depression when compared to indoor activity. And a 2010 study found that even just five minutes of exercise in a green space can improve mood and self-esteem, the BBC reported.

Learn how to make fitness fun by adding Latin flavor and international zest to the workout while 500-800 calories per hour!
Since its creation in 2001, Zumba has become nothing short of a revolution. Coining the term "fitness party" and making fitness fun, Zumba spread like wildfire, and has become the world's largest - and most successful - dance-fitness program with more than 12 million people taking weekly Zumba classes in over 110,000 locations across more than 125 countries!

CrossFit Long Beach Announces Their Summer Leaning Challenge Winners
Share: Tweet19
Jun
201224 CrossFit Long Beach members adopted the Paleo Lifestyle with amazing results losing a combined total of 133 inches in 8 weeks.
Los Angeles-Long Beach, CA (1888PressRelease) June 19, 2012 - Dave Brooks and Emily Mumper, members of CrossFit Long Beach, were announced as the male and female winners of the CrossFit Long Beach Summer Leaning Challenge Saturday, June 16 during the school's annual leaning challenge finale banquet.
Brooks, the male winner of the challenge, lost a total of 11.25 inches while Cumper, the female winner topped everyone with 12 total inches lost. The group lost a combined total of over 133 inches in just eight weeks.
Brooks and Mumper topped 24 people who all adopted the Paleo Diet, eliminating grains, dairy, sugar and all processed food from their daily intake. Tari Okoya won second place with 10.75 inches lost while Lauren Crispin and Krista Dart tied at third place, both having lost 8.75 inches.
Brooks credits the guidance of his coaches at CrossFit Long Beach for his success. In addition to a streamlined physique, digestive problems that once plagued him have now been alleviated thanks to the adoption of the Paleo lifestyle. He says he has "tons of energy during the day" and sleep problems are now a thing of the past.
"I had a lot of apprehension in letting go of the past," Brooks said about changing his lifestyle. "But the process has been fun and exciting. The challenge opened up a whole new world to me."
CrossFit Long Beach, a school of elite fitness in Signal Hill, teaches their students that the path to health and wellness is through their stomachs. Adopting a diet that welcomes non-processed foods, zero grains, dairy and sugar is a lifestyle choice and not a temporary fix.
"For eight weeks, the leaning contestants took the first step to ultimate health and fitness," Gina Caywood, co-owner of CrossFit Long Beach, said. "They learned that exercising four to five days a week can get them in shape, but real results occur when they learn to eat the right foods."
The popularity of the contest presented a double-sided award for all contestants: the chance to get in the best shape of their life while pursuing a cash prize with the idea being that nothing can be lost from participating in the challenge except inches.
"Changing the way we eat is always a struggle," Chad Cross, head coach and co-owner of CrossFit Long Beach, said. "These members proved that with just a little persistence and dedication, a change can and will occur."
CrossFit Long Beach is the 43rd CrossFit gym in the nation and the first one in Long Beach/Signal Hill to open its doors, CrossFit Long Beach (CFLB) has been helping everyday people transform themselves into high-performing athletes since 2005. Details about the challenge and the school are available at (562) 492-6951.

Shape Up, Safely, for Summer
HealthDay – 3 hrs ago SATURDAY, May 12 (HealthDay News) -- Being healthy and losing weight are not only about crash diets, clothing sizes and numbers on the scale, experts say.

Incorporating fitness into your life can boost your confidence and make you feel better inside and out, said the experts, from the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
"Start by throwing away all clothing catalogs with skinny models in skimpy bikinis on the front," Beth Kitchin, assistant professor of nutrition sciences, said in a university news release. "Then buy a bathing suit that flatters your shape. Going to extremes for weight loss leads to yo-yo dieting and makes you feel bad about yourself."
"The goal is to be a healthy size for you, so focus your attitude and energy on becoming the best version of yourself and enjoy the journey to health," added Lauren Whitt, wellness coordinator at the university.
The UAB experts said it's important to shape up for summer safely, and offered the following tips on how to reach your weight-loss goals:
Be realistic. Consult your doctor about how much weight you need to lose to be healthy, and then set up a timeline to meet that goal. You can safely lose up to 2 pounds per week, they said. Don't overdo it. Make just one lifestyle change each day, such as cutting out a soda or eating breakfast. "Taking small steps toward your goal will make it more attainable," Whitt said. "An early-morning meal with protein should keep you satisfied until lunchtime and help you resist high-fat, sugary mid-morning snacks." Move more. It's important to increase your activity level, the experts noted. Start slow and be consistent. List exercise as an event on your work calendar so you have a reminder. Personalize your workout. Although most people should aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise each week, the workout you choose should suit your personality, the experts advised. "If you are a social person, try going to a group class like Zumba or step aerobics," Whitt said. "Conversely, if you are more into a solo workout, go with walking, running or even swimming. If you burn at least 250 calories through exercise and cut out at least 250 calories from food -- one 20-ounce bottle of soda -- you easily can lose at least 1 pound a week." Don't skip meals. A better way to reduce calories is to keep a record of your food intake for a few days. "You'll find out where extra calories are coming from," Kitchin said. Make wise food choices. Half of your meals should be fruits and vegetables, a quarter should be grains and the last quarter should be lean proteins such as poultry and fish. It's also important to choose low-fat and high-fiber recipes; limit your portions; skip sugary drinks; and opt for foods that are baked, braised, broiled, grilled, poached, roasted or steamed over those that are fried, buttered, creamed or breaded.The experts said women should have no more than one alcoholic drink and men should have no more than two drinks per day.
"Alcohol tends to increase your appetite and provides calories without nutrients," Whitt said. "If you skip it altogether, you can reach your goals more easily."
An occasional treat doesn't mean you can't meet your weight-loss goals, the experts added. Getting in shape does not require perfection; just get back on track the next morning.

Summer Skin Care Advice
April 19, 2012 by admin
When summer season arrives, there’s nowhere to be but outside. Of course you are entitled to enjoy the warm sunshine, but remember to be smart about it.
As you’ve probably been told many times before, UV radiation from the sun has harmful effects, and that you have to take good care of your skin. Here’s some for you to follow in order to keep your skin looking and feeling healthy.
Remember to apply sunscreen before heading outdoors. In fact, don’t just apply sunscreen during the summer-try to get into this habit all throughout the year. No matter how overcast the sky may be, UV rays can still penetrate there way into the skin. After applying sunscreen on your face and body during the morning, regularly re-apply some every two to three hours. Try to use a sunscreen that has a sun protection factor of at least 15.
One important piece of is to moisturize.
Your skin tends to get very dry throughout the summer season, and it needs as much moisture as it can get. Some sunscreens not only protect your skin from UV rays, but also moisturize it at the same time.
When you end up sunbathing the whole day, you’re bound to get sunburn. Another piece of is to treat your skin with products that contain large amounts of Aloe Vera. Aloe Vera soothes dryness, burns, and discomfort.
Follow these three pieces of advice this summer and you can be confident that your skin is taken good care of.
