Muscle building supplements and sliming capsules are always thought to be the most fragile supplements in the society and have always been questioned. Most of the people just throw them in dustbin without having much knowledge about them. But they are not a kind of misused drugs. Instead they help in making many of the body process fast by reducing the fat content and also help in building strong muscles as they contain mainly proteins which are the chief constituent. Lida Dali slimming capsules and body building supplements like ProShape RX, Dietrine, Acomplia are some common examples. These products are also available online on the interactive websites like kmlida.

Another growing choice for having a good build is to take the pro hormones. These are established compounds which transformed into anabolic hormones by the body. The main reasons to spend money pro hormones are:-

1.) It helps in increasing the muscle size and hence provides more strength.

2.) It helps in reducing the fat content of the body.

3.) It helps in increasing the sex drive of a person.

4.) It helps in boosting up and enabling the exercise intensity level.

The most popular pro hormones which are available in the market are

1.) Tribulus Terrestrus

2.) 4-androstenedione

3.) 1-androstenediol (1-AD)

4.) Dehydroepiandrosterone or DHEA

5.) 19-norandrostenedione

6.) 5-androstenediol

These pro-steroids and weight loss pills grow in demand when they were taken by famous celebrity. ‘Androstenedione’ is used for shaping the body and enhancing it. So if these pro hormones are used wisely and carefully by the knowledge people they can be really effective.

Pro hormones are actually like the hormones that are when swallowed as well as are digested by the body get converted into anabolic hormones by enzymatic process. These affect the body in the following ways:

1.) They help in increasing anabolic hormones level of the body.

2.) They help in stimulating the androgen receptors.

3.) They also help in building muscles by consuming the available fat contents in the body and converting it in required energy.

While the affects and cause of these pro hormones is similar to anabolic steroids. Classification of pro hormones can be done in 3 ways: -

The Andros group – Converted into natural hormones.

The 19-nor group – Converted to anabolic compounds.

The testosterone boosting group Increase the male hormone

Seeing as how the cleaning industry is one of the fastest growing industry’s around, it’s no surprise that there are so many people who want to get into the act. And this is cleaning franchises like Maid Pro come into the picture.

Over the years Maid Pro has built up a name for itself that spells out quality and professionalism to its customers. This means that if you also join the Maid Pro franchise, that you will also have the backing of that name to give to your customers.

Maid Pro franchises work very simply indeed. You first of all decide that you want to be a part of the Maid Pro franchise, then you go through the information, paperwork and details regarding Maid Pro, then you decide upon what sort of capital you want to put into your business. Then, you begin the real deal.

From the moment that you begin a Maid Pro franchise you can be assured that your life will never be dull, and the best thing is that, as owner of the business, you won’t be cleaning anything – unless of course it’s your own house.

That’s right. Maid Pro franchise owners don’t get down and dirty with their clients premises, instead they leave that up to their fully trained and qualified staff. As the owner of a Maid Pro franchise you will instead be required to see to the little details of running a business.

This is specified quite strongly even before you get a slice of the Maid Pro franchise cake, and is done for a simple reason. The original founders of Maid Pro believe that it is in the best interests of both the client and the business if you have the time necessary to devote to running your business. Obviously if you’re out on a regular basis as part of the cleaning crew then you have less time to devote to running your business.

What you will therefore need to do if you’re thinking about getting a Maid Pro franchise is to hire employees of your own to do the cleaning. Your job after that will entail managing your business, managing your employees, and managing things so that you clients stay happy and come back to you over and over again.

If you have the capital to invest in a Maid Pro franchise, then you have the ability to start up your own Maid Pro franchised cleaning service where you live. And with the cleaning business being what it is, you can be sure and make a “clean sweep” of the whole thing!

Creatine ethyl ester is a recently introduced performance enhancer in the domain of bodybuilding. The basic composition of the substance includes creatine ether and ester. The substance is a new rage among athletes and others who want to gain muscle fast. The stuff has been found to be effective in strength training and in improving the performance of athletes. Human bodies easily absorb it and is said to be at lest 40 times more functional than the other body supplements. It is transported to the body muscles quickly and effectively. The ester attached to it uses body fat easily and can permeate the cell walls providing maximum benefits to the muscles. It is taken in small doses and people of all ages can make use of it without any risk factor. It does not cause water retention in the body and is quite effective in maintaining the muscle concentrations and giving it a solid appearance.

People buy prohormones also. It is a kind of pro steroid used as a body supplement. This body supplement has been in use since 1998 and has raised many controversies. Pro steroids are available in the market with various brand names. Banned in 2005 by the federal government of America under the anabolic steroid act 2004, pro steroids promise significant improvement in the muscle gain by reducing extra fat. These are hormonal substances. They get converted in to active hormones through the enzymatic process. These active hormones are anabolic hormones that stimulate androgen to improve strength and size of the muscles. But anabolic hormones are not natural and produce side effects that are injurious to health.

Moreover as a body supplement they are not as effective as creatine is. In addition to it, pro steroids can be taken in limited quantity. Presently sale, distribution and possession of prohormone are punishable crimes. There is no official recommendation to buy pro hormones. So it is always better to gather further information before using pro steroids. Moreover it would be a blunder to consider creatine and pro steroids one and same. There are big differences between the two. Pro steroids are weak anabolic steroids and their effectiveness depends on the diet take during the course of the bodybuilding program. Moreover the pro steroids are much hyped bodybuilding supplements. So lack of knowledge makes people more vulnerable to it. Currently creatine is said to be the safest body supplement widely in use.

Anorexia is one of the main eating disorders that affects a large number of people both in the USA and in Europe. The other main eating disorder is bulimia.

Anorexia is very dangerous because those that are affected by it intentionally starve themselves due to an obsessive fear of becoming fat. If the body does not get the vital substances found in food then it has a lot to suffer, and eventually death through starvation can occur.

Anorexia is caused mainly by the modern view of beauty. In our times it is believed that thin is beautiful, and fat is ugly, which causes a lot of young girls to wish to become thin. This wish can turn into an obsession that makes the girls or young women to have a distorted image of their own bodies and consider themselves fat even when they are too thin. This is dangerous because it makes these girls intentionally starve themselves in order not to gain weight.

Unfortunately, some people have a pro-anorexia attitude and encourage those with anorexia is their obsession. There are quite a few groups and forums where the anorexics discuss their problems and encourage each other. This pro-anorexia attitude contradicts the medical beliefs that anorexia is a disease. There also are a lot of pro-anorexia websites where anorexia is encouraged.

These websites and support groups state that anorexia is a modern lifestyle, that encourages diets and weight loss. Through these sites anorexics can meet other people like them that encourage and support this attitude. Some of them even mock those that state that anorexia is an illness that needs to be treated.

Let us look at what can happen to hose that choose to be anorexic for a long period of time:

-they will be very depressed and have a poor memory because their brain chemistry will change if the brain does not receive its vital substances from food

-their thoughts will be clouded by their physical weakness and hunger

-their hair will become thin and in some cases they may start to lose it

-their blood pressure will lower which endangers the heart and can cause heart failure

-their bones will weaken from the lack of calcium that can be found in certain foods

-they are at risk to develop kidney stones

-the women will lose their period which will ruin the fragile balance of the hormones

-the skin will get dry an yellow

-the final result of anorexia is death through starvation

So how can a pro-anorexia attitude be encouraged? it’s like encouraging a slow and painful suicide. Those with anorexia need immediate treatment to restore the natural balance of their bodies.

Tom Venuto asked:


r supplements are advertised everywhere these days – on the internet, in magazines and even on TV. The ads almost always feature a very lean fitness model or bodybuilder and claim that these products, usually pills, are the secret to their six pack abs and very low body fat levels. Some of these ads suggest that the only way to get as lean as the “hot bodies” you see pictured is by taking their “miracle pills” and that proper nutrition and exercise alone is not enough.

While I won’t dismiss the fact that there are ingredients in some fat “burner” products that might help a little bit, I take great displeasure in seeing misleading advertising claims as well as the misleading use of models who are often paid to endorse the product even though they may never have even used it (they’re just models!)

Many “fat burner” companies have been sued by the Federal Trade Commission for false advertising, false claims and falsifying before and after photos.

The best you get is a slight thermogenic effect and possibly some slight appetite suppression. A few products might work through other mechanisms like improving thyroid, but if you forgive me the generalization, I consider the effects of all these “fat burner” products to be minutia.

In one of my previous newsletters, I said that in my opinion, 97% of your results come from nutrition and training and maybe you get an extra 3% advantage from supplements. Just so you know those numbers aren’t something I pulled out of thin air, here’s an example:

I have reviewed scientific data that EGCG, the active ingredient in green tea extract, if consumed in enough quantity, could increase thermogenesis / metabolic rate by an average of about 75 calories in 24 hours. Since ephedrine was taken off the market, green tea extract appears in many ephedra-free formulas these days. What is a typical calorie expenditure for an active male in 24 hours? lets say 2700 calories per day. 75/2700 = 2.7%.

That little extra doesnt hurt, especially when it’s delivered in a healthful package such as green tea (rather than central nervous system stimulants), but it’s minutia in the bigger picture. Another way to put this into perspective is to make a list of what other things would burn 75 calories (for 150 lb person:)

* walk your dog for 15 minutes * walk for 5 minutes at normal casual pace three times a day * 30 minutes of ironing * bagging leaves and grass clippings for 14 minutes * re arrange your furniture for 10 minutes * wash your car, 15 minutes * vacuuming for 15 minutes *7.2 minutes of walking up stairs (could be spread throughout the day)

Of course, some people are probably wondering, “Why exert yourself if you could take a pill and your metabolism increases while you sit and watch TV?”

Here’s what any good personal trainer will always tell you: No amount of calorie restriction or pill-popping will ever give you FITNESS. It will never give you STRENGTH. It will never get you MUSCULARITY. It will never give you FUNCTIONALITY. At best it will help you reduce your body mass.

And how about for your health? A body that’s not moved rots away. Unlike a car which only has so many miles on it and wears out from over-use, people are the only “machines” on earth that fall apart from under-use.

On one hand, I’m tempted to say that everything counts and that yes, 75 calories here and 75 calories there, it ALL adds up, because it does. After you’re exercising regularly and all your fundamentals are in place, details and little things do matter.

I’m simply asking you to put the benefits of any fat burners in proper perspective and realize that (1) there is no “need” for taking them and (2) the claims made in the ads are often erroneous or exaggerated.

My advice on fat burners:

1. NEVER buy a fat burner unless you get independent verification of the claims made for the product.

How do you know they really work? Are you seriously going to take the advertisers word for it? Are you going to take someone else’s testimonial as fact? Get verification for yourself by going to the pub med data base and looking for the primary research.

2. Put it in perspective

With those products that work, such as those providing a small thermogenic effect, put that in perspective as compared to how easily you could burn that many calories with even light exercise like walking or housework. Keep in mind the additional fitness and strength benefits you will obtain from exercise as opposed to doing nothing and popping a pill.

3. See if there are any side effects or health warnings.

With all supplements and especially with prohormones or stronger thermogenics like the ephedrine and caffeine stack, (if you still have access to them), understand the risk to benefit ratio, and be certain you know the dangers and contraindications.

4. Read the label and see if the product contains enough active ingredient to even work.

A classic scam is when a “fat burner” advertisement quotes research that a certain inredient boosts metabolism, which might be true. What they may not tell you is that all the research with positive results used a large dosage of the ingredient, which might not be cheap. So the supplement company includes a “pinch” or “light dusting” of that ingredient just so they can say it’s in the bottle, even though it’s nothing more than “label decoration.” Then they have the audacity to invoke the research studies in their advertisements when the amount of the ingredient in their product is no where near what was used in the research!

5. Beware of the proprietary blend scam.

Some companies don’t let you see how much ingredient is in the product formula, because it contains multiple ingredients and they say their formula is a “trade secret” aka “proprietary”, so they list what is in the product but not how much. Well, if you don’t know how much is in there then how are you supposed to know whether it contains the proper dosage? (answer: you don’t!)

6. Make sure there is human research, not just rodent research.

In many cases, advertisements cite studies on rats and mice as “proof” under the assumption that the product will produce the same results in humans. Animal research is an important part of the scientific method, as it is often used to help find areas of research where human study should be pursued, or in the other direction, to trace back the mechanism that makes something work. However, for obesity research in particular, a positive finding in rats does not mean the same thing will happen in humans.

7. Look for more than one human study.

Consider trying a supplement after it has human research that has been replicated by different research groups which are not industry-sponsored. My policy is that I will usually only give a “buy” rating to a supplement when a product has an initial well-designed human controlled trial published and then similar research has been replicated by another research group that is not supplement-industry funded. Actually, I think it’s a good thing that nutrition and supplement companies fund and sponsor some of the research. They should. They should not only back up their claims with published clinical trials, they should share some of the cost of this expensive research.

However, a basic principle of the scientific method is replication. Other researchers should be able to duplicate the findings. Therefore, while the funding source does not necessarily prove bias, if there is only one study available on a supplement and it is company or industry sponsored, I usually take it with a grain of salt and put an asterisk next to it while I wait for confirmation from another study. (You might be surprised at how infrequently this type of confirmation occurs).

Do you really need “more” than nutrition and exercise?

Now, when you weigh the fact that even the products with research backing them only help a little, with the fact that many of the ads lie to you about research, exaggerate claims and hide vital information about ingredients, and with the fact that you can do a few more minutes of exercise per day and get the same results for free, how enthusiastic are you about fat burners? Yeah, that’s why I’m not real excited about them either and based on the fact that I use no drugs and no “fat burner” supplements and I compete in bodybuilding – very successfully – I’d say that the assertion, “it takes more than nutrition and exercise to get six pack abs” is patently false.

I’m getting foot surgery done on the 22nd of this month and after that I won’t be able to do exercises that use the legs or the feet (i.e. running, biking, ball sports). I’m trying to lose weight, however, so I need to find a new exercise that burns a lot of calories.

Will strength conditioning burn as many calories as cardio?
