Protect Your Computer

Recently I have suffered three power outages in the last 2 weeks, most often the lights just flicker but it is enough to shutdown my Home Theater PC in the middle of NetFlick, quite annoying. I have a Uninterrupted Power Supply, but its battery has never seemed to hold a charge. Time to look for a new one. More later on which one I select for testing and how well it performs.

Hemp Oil

I know the extra virgin olive oil remains all the rage at the moment. It is great stuff, it does however have one drawback, you really can not cook or fry with it. Heating it above saute actually places stress on the molecules creating trans fat, which we all now finally agree is not good for you. Hemp Seed oil however has excellent heat stability, as does macadamia nut oil and coconut oil. Give them a try and have no fear of them, they all provide good sources of fatty acids your body can instantly burn as fuel, and each has its own special benefits that bear your investigation.

HumaPro

Boasting the exact ratios of amino acids used in body protein synthesis, Huma Pro stakes its claim on providing the essential amino acids the body uses to build and repair muscle cells.  This means less work on your kidneys dealing with normal protein catabolites and less work on your digestive system breaking down proteins.  I am on my second order, I haven't had the opportunity to put it though some rigorous CrossFitting, but so far it seems to be making good on its claims.

Pyridoxine - Vitamin B-6

If you have poor dream recall, you might be low on B-6.  Pyridoxine is an essential B Vitamin involved in many cellular functions including red blood cell formation.  It is also essential for the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins.  It also plays an important role in the production of serotonin, the critical neurotransmitter which helps calm nerves and handle stress.  High stress life style, such as our modern western life, puts us all short on serotonin.  SSRIs or selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors, such as Prozac, help increase the serotonin available between nerve synapses but do not help you make more.  Being low in B-6 makes it harder for you body to manufacture serotonin, and in this day and age our body needs all the help it can get.  I prefer time release at least 200mg.
