acai palm trees and looks like a purple marble or purple grape.
The Acaí berry (fruit) is 90% seed pit and 10% acaí pulp and
must be carefully handled before it can be consumed. During the

are agitated against one another. This process separates the
acaí pulp from the seed to produce a thick acaí fruit pulp puree.

level nutritional benefits. The acaí berry contains high levels
of antioxidants also known as anthocyanins. It also contains Omega

Acai Berry Select


Acai is extremely rich in organic vegetable protein which does
not generate cholesterol during its digestion and is easier
processed and transported to your muscles than animal protein
(such as in milk or meat). Besides its outstanding content of
protein and unsaturated lipids, acai is also rich in carbohydrates
which provide your body with the necessary energy while working
or practicing any kind of sport. That is why acai is served in most gyms,
sport clubs and beaches all over Brazil, and now all over the world.

4 Keys to Burning Fat and Maintaining Muscle


There are three main keys to losing fat and gaining muscle.
If you’re missing any of these you will most likely fail in
your attempts to build a lean muscular body. So what are they?

1) Eat Less Calories than you burn off

2) Resistance Training

3) Eating enough protein to maintain muscle mass

4) Aerobic Training

That’s as short and sweet as I can put it.

Any diet can work as long as it gets you to eat less calories
than you burn off. The key is to find a diet that suits your
personality and your lifestyle. If you’re like me you don’t
have discipline to spend on diet rules and focusing on good foods
and bad foods, and what to eat and what not to eat, and meal
timing and all of that.

The diet that will work for you will most likely be the one
with the least amount of rules, or in fact no rules at all
but rather just provide a guideline or two. For me that diet
is BURN FAT GET FIT OVER 40 NOW!!


It is the simplest nutrition program I have
ever ran across.

This type of eating program might work for you, or it might
not. You just have to try it first. As long as you can find
a diet you can stick with for the long term you’ll be able
to lose weight, the next key it making sure all of that weight
comes from fat. This is where resistance training comes in.

You have to do some form of resistance training in order to
maintain and build muscle mass while you’re losing fat. If
you are following an effective diet without doing resistance
training you could end up losing muscle mass along the way.
If this happens you could lose body weight without actually
improving the look or shape of your body.

Your actual bodyweight doesn’t matter as much as your percentage
of fat. If you can lose 5 pounds of fat, but gain 3 pounds of
muscle you will only lose 2 pounds of body weight on the scale,
but you’ll look 8 pounds different. Even though 2 pounds doesn’t
sound like much, the difference on your body fat percentage is
the key.

This is why weight training is so important while dieting.
Weight training is the best way to make sure you don’t lose
muscle while you diet, this helps with overall health as well
as improving the overall look and shape of your body. After all
when you diet the goal is to show off the lean muscle that is
under the fat.

The third key to building muscle while losing fat is protein.
You have to eat just enough protein to make sure your muscles
can grow. This is a controversial topic that many nutrition
‘experts’ still don’t agree on. But the bottom line is protein
is your friend when it comes to building muscle and especially
when you’re dieting.

The fourth key is the aerobic training to get the oxygen into
the body to enhance the fat burn, metabolic process and to feed
the muscles with good blood flow..


Mix these four key ingredients together and you’ll have a
potent fat loss, burn fat and muscle building program that can
transform your body in no time with the BURN FAT GET FIT OVER 40 NOW!!

Poverty And Obesity: A New Study Finds
A Remarkable Connection
------------------------------------------------------

While the rich and the affluent still face many
of the problems that come with the "king's
lifestyle", a new pattern is emerging in the
United States and, predictions state, Europe.

A new study shows that the trend of ill-health
and obesity is shifting rapidly to the poor and
less educated portions of the country.

The reason this is important to us all, other
than a concern for our nation's health as a
whole, is the economic strain this will place
on our already burdened health care system.

By the year 2012, if this trend increases, the
middle and upper classes will be looking at
massive increases in taxes to fund proposed
government plans to address the problem.

This is a problem that flat-out does NOT need
to exist. Everyone who can afford food at 'all'
can easily eat healthy and exercise.

Part of the confusion is due to the fact that the
billion dollar fitness industry has created a
myth -- that expensive food supplements and
organic foods are mandatory for good health.

While I believe in both, neither are mandatory.

It's the TYPE of food, and the COMBINATION
of the foods that make all the difference -- that,
and moderate calories, exercise, and proper
mental disposition.

This is covered in detail in the best-selling
e-book, "Fit Over 40", by Jon Benson and
Tom Venuto, CSCS.

BURN FAT GET FIT OVER 40 NOW!!




In regards to the study, Dr. Janet Collins of the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
had this to say --

"Populations are no longer equal in terms of
experiencing health problems. Low-income
populations tend to experience all the health
problems we worry about at greater rates."

The five states with the highest obesity rates
in the 2005 consensus include Mississippi,
Alabama, West Virginia, Louisiana and
Kentucky.

These same five states have higher rates
of poverty than the national norm.

Meanwhile, the five states with the lowest
obesity have less poverty. They are Colorado,
Hawaii, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and
Vermont.

Each of these states also have more college
graduates and stronger education programs.

Education in health and fitness does not
need to be expensive, and it certainly does
not take a rocket scientist to figure it out.

However, many fitness professionals and
nutrition 'gurus' lend that impression.

If you visit a gym today, especially in a
larger city, you'll see a myriad of devices
that, frankly, would give you a better workout
if you tried to pick them up and move them
out to the garbage dump.

It can be daunting and confusing for anyone!
But, this doesn't have to be the case. In fact,
as so many people report in "Fit Over 40",
workouts can be done in your own home
that will more than satisfy the needs of
most people.

The same goes for nutrition. While a few
people require "high-tech", expensive foods
(for medical reasons usually), the vast
majority of us can easily get the job done
at the local grocery store.

The best way to inspire change is to create
change in yourself. Start there, set the
example, and the word will spread.

Anyone can be fit and healthy, and they
can do it at ANY age, and at ANY income
level above absolute poverty.

Yours in health,
