Cell Exercise
Cell Exercise
Cell exercise is seeing that your cells get exercise, that
is, that you exercise. This can take the form of workouts at a health
club, group sports activities, after-dinner walks, gardening, or simply
walking when you run errands.
Why Bother?
It seems that every passing month research gives us more
reason to exercise. Studies show that regular exercise leads to better
physical and mental health and an overall improved lifestyle.
Exercise helps us physically.
When we exercise routinely, our bodies work more efficiently - we use less
energy to get better results. This pertains not only to physical movement
- we can walk further, shop longer, play wit the kids more energetically -
but also to fighting disease. When we are in shape, we better use our
energy when fighting disease or stress, or in the healing process. This
can result in a faster recovery time, less stress, and a more powerful
immune system.
More specifically, Physical Activity and Health: A
Report of the Surgeon General lists the following benefits of
exercise.
Exercise:
-
Reduces the risk of dying prematurely and from heart
disease, and of developing diabetes, high blood pressure, and colon
cancer.
-
Helps reduce blood pressure in people who already have
high blood pressure.
-
Reduces feelings of depression and anxiety; promotes
psychological well-being.
-
Helps control weight.
-
Helps build and maintain healthy bones, muscles, and
joints.
-
Helps older adults become stronger and better able to
move about without falling.
The report also notes that you do not have to turn into an
exercise fanatic to obtain these results. People who are usually inactive
can improve their health and well-being by becoming even moderately active
on a regular basis, and physical activity need not be strenuous to achieve
health benefits.
Exercise helps us mentally.
We often hear about athletes who win through brainpower, not strength - in
other words, mental sharpness enhances athletics. What we don't consider
as often is the opposite: that exercise enhances mental prowess. This may
be partially due to the relaxing and stress-busting effect of exercise.
Exercising releases hormones, neurotransmitters (which help the brain
communicate within itself), and other substances that help the body relax.
Brain researchers are beginning to speculate on the link
between movement and learning, and are beginning to believe that exercise
not only shapes up muscles and expands the lungs, but also buffs up the
cerebellum, an important part of the brain.
It appears that exercise feeds the head with a better
supply of neurotrophins, important substances that increase brain cell
growth. In a study published in the Jan. 12, 1995, issue of the journal Nature,
rats that ran - that exercised - had more of these important growth
factors than couch potato rats.
When more complex movements are undertaken, be it
jazzercise, cross over dribbles, or ballet, the brain produces a greater
number of connections between its neurons. William Greenough, Ph.D., of
the William T. Greenough Lab, investigates the effect of physical exercise
on the cerebellum and other brain regions. One of his tests on exercise
and movement shows that rats that exercise in any way have more
capillaries around the brain's neurons than sedentary rats, which
indicates an increased supply of nutrients to the brain. More than this,
the rats that also work on coordination and dexterity show more
connections between neurons.
What Can You Do?
If you feel that you need to start, or expand, an exercise
program, there are a few things to keep in mind.
Find activities that you enjoy.
Participating in an activity only because "it is good for you"
is probably not going to result in a long-term commitment.
Make the exercise convenient.
If you have to drive across town, or spend a half hour getting ready, you
will be less likely to make exercising a regular thing. This is why
exercise such as walking or cycling is good: all you do is walk out the
door and begin.
Vary your activities and how you
do them. Doing the same thing over and over gets boring. The
solution is to vary your activities. Walk one night, cycle another. Go
bowling. Also find variation in what you do. Take a different route on a
walk, or set markers ahead of you and see how long it takes you to get to
them.
Keep track of progress.
Improvement is great motivation, so keep track of it. This could be how
long an activity takes, how long you can do it, or just how you feel
afterward. Develop a system and keep track.
Lighten up! Not your
weight, your attitude. don't become obsessed with exercise: this can lead
to exercising too much (and to a sudden loss of friends). Nor do you have
to work too hard. Recent studies show that even "light" exercise
is beneficial. something as simple as a walk once a week has health
benefits.
Don't give up. If you
are exhausted after your first try, and see no improvement after
subsequent exercise attempts, don't give up. Remember, it may have taken
years of inactivity to get into the bad shape you may be in; it will take
more than a few days, or weeks, to get out of it.
Make exercise a part of your day.
A set exercise regime is great, but also get exercise whenever the
opportunity presents itself. Ditch your car and walk or cycle when you run
errands. Walk up stairs and forego the escalator. don't look for the
closest parking place, look for the farthest. Don't call someone in the
office, walk down the hall to deliver the message.
The AIM Products
All AIM products conform to the "Healthy
Cell Concept", and some of them are very good for cell exercise.
AIM Metabolite™, the AIM weight-loss product, is great to use
when you exercise. Metabolite not only helps you lose weight, but
also helps your body burn fat more efficiently, which exercise can
enhance.
Bee Pollen and Coenzyme Q10, found in AIM Mountain Meadows
Bee Pollen™, and AIM's Coenzyme Q10 products (AIM Coenzyme Q10™, AIM
CellSparq Q™, and AIM CellSparc 360™) both have a history of use by
athletes for enhanced performance. AIM Barleygreen® provides you with
more energy for better exercise, and, along with AIM Proancynol™ and AIM
SuperZymes®/Wheatzymes, helps fight the free radicals produced by
exercise. Athletes have also used aloe vera for muscular aces and pains,
and aIM Aloe Natural™, AIM AloeGold®, and AIM Aloe Fresh™ are three
of the best aloe products there are.
Of course, any exercise routine is enhanced by a healthy
diet, so AIM's concentrated juice products (AIM's Garden Trio) are also
valuable in cell exercise.
Using Your Knowledge
Now that you have a good understanding of the importance
of exercise and how the AIM products fit in to cell exercise, what are you
going to do?
You may want to start with family members and a friend.
Point out the importance of exercise to them. It helps, as always, if you
have personal experience to back up your words. This might mean going at
it alone at first, or with a spouse or family member(s). When you begin
experiencing the benefits of exercise, spread the word. Remember, actions
speak louder than words, so "talking the talk" without
"walking the walk" will not help you, and may even destroy your
credibility.
Once you have an exercise routine, join others, or start
your own exercise group. If you take part in a certain activity, find
others who do, too, and join in! If there is not already a group, start
one. Put up flyers in likely places, or even an advertisement in your
newspaper. "Local" sections of papers will often run stories on
local people who have formed an exercise group. Getting involved in
rebounding - an exercise utilizing a "mini-trampoline" - may be
advisable, especially if you are targeting the aging baby boomers. AIM
sells an excellent video on this type of program.
You could also combine exercise with other activities. For
example, plan a bike ride to a park or other recreation area, and then
have a picnic.
What To Do
Read section three, "Cell Environment" by
Al Morioka, DDS, Ph.D., in the "Healthy Cell Concept" pocket
book.
Read "Cell Environment" in the
"healthy Cell Concept" softcover book.
Think About This
-
What effects do air pollution and water pollution have
on our health? What are their costs to society?
-
Does being indoors guarantee no air pollution?
-
Why is water important to us?
-
What actions can we take to guard against and diminish
pollution?
-
Which AIM products would you recommend in connection
