What’s Growing Around Your Dishwasher–What to Do About Exophiala

According to a study published in Fungal Biology, researchers found that 35% of dishwashers tested in 101 cities contained a black fungi called Exophiala on the rubber seal of the doors.

It seems that the hot, moist environment is a perfect breeding ground for the fungi to grow. This fungi is particularly dangerous for children, the elderly and people with cystic fibrosis.

There are a couple things you can do to stop the fungi. First, clean the rubber seal with a bleach solution and second, leave the dishwasher door open to air-dry after use.

Stopping Your Food Cravings with this spice..

Researchers from the University of Pittsburgh found that the culinary spice saffron may stop your food cravings.

Saffron raises serotonin, a neurotransmitter that boost mood, influences hunger and helps put the brakes on food cravings.

In the study they conducted, mildly overweight women, ages 25-45, were divided into two groups. Half took one 90 mg capsule of a standardized saffron extract with breakfast and a second capsule with dinner.

The other group was given placebo pills. For eight weeks neither group made diet changes, but they were asked to record all food eaten outside of mealtimes.

The saffron pill popping women lost 2.1 pounds and they reported snacking half as often as before and feeling less hungry between meals.

Keep in mind that it takes up to four weeks to see results. So…happy saffroning!

Not Having Enough Folic Acid May Speed Up Hearing Loss

Since I mentioned folic acid in the last blurb, let me share with you research published in the Journal of Nutrition that linked a deficiency of folic acid in the blood with a 35% increased risk of hearing loss.

The researchers found that folate levels below 11 nanomoles per liter was associated with a 34% increased risk of age-related hearing loss and if the levels of homocysteine was 20 micromoles per liter it was associated with a 64% increase in the risk of hearing loss.

In another study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, scientist reported that, among 728 men and women between the ages of 50 to 70, folic acid supplements reduced the risk of developing hearing loss by 20%.

So…combining the research in the story above, you may reduce your dementia while you increase your hearing by taking folic acid and the other B-Vitamins.

Sources include cereals, baked goods, leafy vegetables (spinach, broccoli, lettuce), okra, asparagus, fruits (bananas, melons, lemons), legumes, yeast, mushrooms, organ meat (beef liver, kidney), orange juice, and tomato juice.

Taking B-Vitamins May Help Reduce The Risk Of Alzheimer’s Disease

A study published in Public Library of Science One conducted by the University of Oxford found that a combination of folic acid, Vitamins B6 and B12 (which are all B-Vitamins) appears to slow brain atrophy in elderly patients with mild cognitive impairment.

The study followed 168 participants over two years. One-half were treated with a European drug called TrioBe Plus® which contained a combination of folic acid (0.8 mg/d), and Vitamins B6 (20 mg/d) and B12 (o.5 mg/d). The other group received a placebo.

Those taking the vitamins had on average 29.6% less brain shrinkage. The vitamins also reduced homocysteine by 22.5%. Homocysteine was found in The Framingham Study to double a person’s risk of dementia if they had homocysteine levels above 14 micromoles per liter of serum.

By the way, this is an example of where a drug company is researching a combination of vitamins and if successful, then the drug company will patent the vitamin formula. The drug company will then be able to raise the price of the vitamins to drug price levels.

Fortunately, you can still get a B-Complex which will have all these ingredients. You can even buy them separately. So…if someone you know has dementia, get them taking these B-Vitamins.

Being Real Busy Can Be Healthy

You’re busy, busy, busy. It turns out that you may be healthier than people who say they are often bored.

British researchers found that the bored people were more likely to die of a heart attack.

Boredom may be linked to skipping workouts and junk food, which can lead to depression and poor health.

So…if you’re going to be busy, busy, busy - make sure you eat healthy and leave time to exercise, too.

SOS Next Training Opportunity In Canada–Feb 2012

You’re Crazy… If You Don’t Take The Next Opportunity To Attend the Switched-On Selling™ and Switched-On Network Marketing™ Seminars & Instructor Trainings.

Because of the powerful impact of my Switched-On Selling™ (SOS) and Switched-On Network Marketing™ Seminars (SONM), you’ve got to be crazy to pass up the opportunity to take the class I’m conducting February, 2012 in Toronto, Canada.

All you have to do to convince yourself is take the time to read some of the research studies we’ve done over the last 22 years validating the impact of these training programs (Click here to read them now).

Let me put it this way - don’t spend another cent on a sales training seminar, CD, DVD or book until you’ve taken either the Switched-On Selling™ or Switched-On Network™ Marketing Seminars.

Put All Other Training on Hold Until You Master SOS:
“Of all the Superstars that I have coached —Tony Robbins, Jack Canfield, Mark Hansen, John Gray, Lisa Nichols, and so many others—and assisted along their journey, Dr. Jerry Teplitz is my favorite for deep content. His immediate ‘stick to the ribs,’ CEO-level put-it-in-the-workplace processes can change your bottom line results in a single session.

On sales and marketing, Dr. Teplitz is the leading master trainer in the world today.  That’s why we literally BEG Jerry to teach at our trade shows for the world’s elite business leaders five times a year.

Put all other training on hold until you master Switched-On Selling™ - then watch the impact this powerful training will have on your profit account next quarter.”
B.J. Dohrmann, Founder of CEOSPACE, best- selling author, and Radio show host

These seminars are absolutely unique, helping you to rewire your brain so that whatever is stopping you from being successful in sales or network marketing will be gone in minutes. Once you’ve finished the class, you can go back to learning the technique side of selling or network marketing and you’ll find it’s a breeze to actually do what you’re learning.

Let me give you one example of the impact that the Switched-On Selling™ Seminar had on Serge Gravelle, President/CEO of My Mall Network Corporation. Serge is a webmaster and had gone to a conference three times to market his web services without closing a single sale. Here’s what changed for Serge within 24 hours after attending the SOS Seminar:

“The results were instantaneous. At the end of the first day we had closed seven contracts, seven times more than we had done during the preceding eight months. By the end of the show, we had signed eighteen contracts. The best part is that I enjoyed making the sales, a feeling I had a hard time experiencing in the past."

Let me share with you the actual statistics from a company that put their sales force through the SOS seminar during the middle of the worst recession since the depression.  

Kevin Kordek is the CEO of A-Active Termite and Pest Control and the immediate past president of the National Pest Control Association. In August 2009, he decided to put half his sales force through the one-day Switched-On Selling™ Seminar. The results were so positive that Kevin put the rest of his people through the seminar in October.

I spoke to him over a year later and Kordek told me results started happening from the first group of eight sales people he put through the seminar. Kevin said six of them immediately jumped above his top-tier salespeople. They set an entirely new level of success within the company!

After putting the rest of the sales force through the seminar, he told me his company became the #1 distributor in the country on two of his high-end product lines, and that one of his salespeople even increased his closing percentage by 300 percent!

Keep in mind this was during the recession and the slow recovery while most of the other companies in the Pest Control industry were falling apart.

Was there anything special or different about Kevin’s sales people? I asked Kevin and he simply said “No. The first group was made up of mediocre sales people before they attended the one day SOS seminar.”

To help entice you to come with us to Canada in February, 2012 to attend the class, I have set up an early bird registration fee and all persons who register for either the SOS or SONM Seminars, you will also receive a F.R.E.E. copy of my Amazon #1 bestselling book Switched-On Selling: Balance Your Brain For Sales Success!

The Power Of Exercise For Curing Cancer And Preventing Its Recurrence

When you get cancer and are going through treatment, doctors have been recommending that you take it easy and don’t exercise much. Well, it turns out that this advice is wrong and that exercise can reduce the risk of dying from cancer and also minimize the side effects caused by the treatment. This recommendation comes from a report by Macmillan Cancer Support.

The report says getting active can help you overcome the effects of cancer and its treatments, such as fatigue and weight gain. Previous research has shown that exercising to the recommended levels can reduce the risk of breast cancer recurrence by up to 30 percent. Bowel cancer patients’ risk of dying from the disease can be cut by around 50 percent by doing around six hours of moderate physical activity a week.

Harvard Medical School researchers found patients who exercise moderately, 3 to 5 hours a week, reduced their odds of dying from breast cancer by about 50% as compared to sedentary women. The benefit even remained constant regardless of whether women were diagnosed early on or after their cancer had spread.

For men, 3 hours per week of moderate-intensity physical activity lowered the risk of prostate cancer death by about 30% and also lowered the rate of the disease progressing by 57%.

Exercise can even reduce the side effects from conventional cancer treatments, such as:

• Reducing fatigue and improving energy levels

• Improving heart health

• Improving appetite

• Maintaining a healthy weight

• Sleeping better and even

• Preventing constipation

As Jane Maher, chief medical officer of Macmillan Cancer Support and clinical oncologist said “if physical exercise were a drug, it would be hitting the headlines". So…if you have a friend or loved one who has cancer, urge them to start getting active and getting a moderate level of exercise (including strengthen training).
