KoiPondFever.com Announces New Products for 2012


Independence, MO (PRWEB) January 31, 2012

KoiPondFever.com had added new pond supply products for 2012 including pond pumps, Matala filter media sheets, Kasco Floating Fountains, pond aeration, and construction supplies. “We are expanding our product selections to give customers more options on building and maintaining ponds and water features”, states RC Moore, President and owner of KoiPondFever.com.

The company will also expand their Hikari koi food line to include Hikari Wheat Germ Sinking Pellets and Hikari Spirulina. Carotenoids can help koi develop beautiful red color. Without adequate levels of carotenoid a koi’s color and beauty can be lost forever. Spirulina, an algae rich in carotenoids has survived more than 3 billion years, is known as one of the world’s best natural color enhancers. Supplement feeding with the Hikari Spirulina formula gives koi the vegetable diet they require for color and health. The Hikari Wheat Germ Sinking Pellets is a easy to digest koi food that should be fed in cooler water temperatures and because it sinks the food is easy for the koi to get when they are reluctant to feed on the water surface. Wheat germ also increases the koi fertility. The new koi foods will be available in mid February.

To meet the demands of large koi pond applications KoiPondFever.com offers two external pump series – Sequence Power 1000 Series and Sequence Titan Series. These external pond pumps have a flow rate from 8,500 to 31,500 gallons per hour and maximum head pressure from 55 to 180 feet. Sequence pumps are manufactured here in the USA by MDM Corporation, a leader in pump performance and efficiency. When it comes to performance, durability, and efficiency, Sequence pumps offer the lowest cost of ownership. Kasco Floating Fountains provide a beautiful display for medium to large pond or lake applications. They are an excellent way to provide aeration and water movement for ponds too large for skimmer applications. KoiPondFever.com offers several power options to address the needs of almost any-size body of water.

In early spring KoiPondFever.com will offer hardy water lilies and marginal plants. KoiPondFever.com was one of the early pioneers in the concept that koi and pond plants can live together in a natural environment without the koi destroying the plants. Their focus on water plants is to provide is to provide beauty and benefits for the koi and water quality.

A New Report Summarizing At Least 10 Years of Research On The Benefits of R-Alpha Lipoic, An Anti-Oxidant For Diabetics, Finds Its Clearest Benefit In Diabetic Neuropathy

Miami, Florida (PRWEB) January 12, 2012

Nutri-Med Logic Corp: A newly published report states the analysis of clinical trials of last 10 years relating to the benefits of R-Alpha Lipoic and the various claims made about it, such as improving Diabetic Polyneuropathy, eliminating free radicals, re-energizing vitamin C, vitamin E, and glutathione, boosting antioxidant defense through enhancing gene expression (Nrf-2) and moderating inflammation (NF-kB) resulted in Diabetic Polyneuropathy receiving the clearest benefit.

The report also states that R-Alpha Lipoic activates AMPK in skeletal muscles, which has many important metabolic consequences.

AMPK is a protein, which its activation results in Glycolysis (metabolism of glucose), Biogenesis of Mitochondria (formation of additional cellular energy plants), activation of GLUT-4 (glucose transport molecule), improving blood flow and metabolism of fatty acids (fat).

The activation of AMPK in skeletal muscle results in the reduction of corporal fat, which is an important property of R-Alpha Lipoic in Obesity.

The deposit of fat in the skeletal muscle emanates from redox imbalance (NAD/NADH), whereas glucose does not convert to energy rather it converts to palmitate (fat), which is, then, deposited into the skeletal muscles.

Prolonged exposure to high levels of palmitate results in a sequence of inflammatory processes, with the end-result being TNF and NF-kB, the inflammatory agents that inhibits the recruiting of GLUT-4. (1,2)

GLUT-4 is the molecule that brings the glucose inside the cells and its inhibition is equal to insulin resistance.

When the cells do not accept insulin, the blood glucose concentration elevates and high blood levels of glucose triggers the activation of Sorbitol-Aldosel Pathways, which converts excess glucose to fructose. The Sorbitol-Aldose Pathways exist in those cells that are independent of insulin, such as Schwann cells of the peripheral nervous system. Excessive activation of this pathway results in the production of Aldehydes and Alcohol (sorbitol), which change the osmotic pressures of these cells, causing their demise, resulting in neuropathy (Nerve degeneration).

Prolonged exposure to palmitate also causes induction of ceramides, which are a signaling mechanism; ceramides interfere with the mRNA (messenger RNA) of insulin, required for the production of insulin. In another word, palmitate also causes an alteration in genetic expression of insulin, further, triggering the Sorbitol-Aldose Pathways. (3)

R-Alpha Lipoic (Also known as R-Lipoic Acid) is a redox agent, capable of correcting the NAD/NADH ratio, which its improper ratio is a key cause of conversion of glucose to palmitate (fat).

Studies have shown, unequivocally, that the Application of R-Alpha Lipoic has resulted in the reduction of corporal weight, in obese individual. (4)

It is important to note that most, if not all, relevant studies relating to Lipoic Acid and Diabetes or Diabetic Neuropathy were done via Intravenous Application, which is not permitted in the U.S, since R-Alpha Lipoic is a nutrient. The dietary supplementation of R-Alpha Lipoic most likely would not produce the same result, but none-the-less, it is a very beneficial dietary supplement for Diabetics and Obese individuals.

In conclusion, Nutri-Med Logic Corp agrees with this recent report relating to supplementation of R-Alpha Lipoic and its various benefits but adds that Obesity should have also been included.

Nutri-Med Logic Corp. is a producer of dietary supplements, including a Pharmaceutical Grade R-Alpha Lipoic Acid, the dietary supplement of choice for the Diabetics, in Germany for more than 40 years.

Nutri-Med Logic Corp is also producer of a Natural, Balanced, Deodorized and Concentrated Omega-3, which is also a Pharmaceutical Grade Omega-3;

Producer of PolyEnylPhosphatidylCholine (PPC 425mg), an extract of soy and the recommended dietarty supplement for those with Fatty Liver and Alcoholic Liver Disease, in Europe for about 50 years;

Veterans Affairs Study Suggests Injuries From Chronic Alcohol Ingestion Was Lower, When Participants Consumed Betaine, a Derivative of a Specific Nutrient

Miami, Florida (PRWEB) December 31, 2011

Nutri-Med Logic Corp: A New Study by Veterans Affairs Nebraska-Western Iowa Health Care System, Published in International Journal of Hepatology, suggests that when animals were fed alcohol with liquid betaine, there were lower indices of Fatty Liver.

The primary food source of betaine is choline, a nutrient found in vegetables and animal liver. In the human body, choline biologically converts to Betaine (tri-methyl Glycine) and studies going back to 1954 have established that alcohol consumption increases the requirement of choline intake. J Exp Med. 1954 Dec 1;100(6):615-27

Choline belongs to a group of nutrients known as Electrophilic Methyl Group (EMG), which have been suggested to eliminate a by-product of alcohol metabolism called NADH, responsible for accumulation of fat in the liver. NADH is a molecule that is normally associated with the production of energy (citric acid cycle) but it is also produced, in excessive amount, in the case of alcohol consumption and thus interferes with the normal metabolism of fat in the liver (Fatty Liver).

Methyl groups return NADH to its active status, that being NAD and, thus, offers some protective role in the case of alcohol and liver.

Choline, a methyl donor, was declared essential and a precursor to betaine by The US Institute of Medicine, who established a dietary reference intake for choline. On June 5, 2001, FDA offered National Academy of Sciences the opportunity to comment on the authoritative statement cited by the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine, relating to Dietary Reference Intakes for several nutrients including Choline. FDA received no comment from National Academy of Sciences. FDA reviewed the authoritative statement from Dietary Reference Intakes for Choline and has not acted to prohibit or modify the claim.

Thus, under the Provision of The FDA labeling guidelines, any supplement that would provide 55mg of choline is considered a good source of Choline.

In conclusion, Nutri-Med Logic Corp. agrees with this newly published study but adds that choline is the precursors to betaine and, further, since choline not only offers protective role for the liver but also in the cardiovascular system (transmethylation of homocysteine), precursor to acetylcholine, precursor to phospholipids (key component of immune system) future studies should promote the dietary intake of choline.

Nutri-Med Logic Corp, also, adds, while the best way to protect the liver from alcohol-induced injuries would be no alcohol, but for those who consume alcohol, choline supplementation would be very beneficial.

Nutri-Med Logic Corp is the producer of Poly-Enyl-phosphatidyl-choline (PPC 425mg), a natural lecithin extracted from soy and an efficient and pure source of choline.

PolyEnylPhosphatidylCholine has been the recommended dietary supplement of choice for those with Fatty Liver and Alcoholic Liver Disease, for about half century in Europe.

Nutri-Med Logics PPC 425mg was formulated to provide 55mg of Choline, a Good Source of Choline dietary supplement.

Nutri-Med Logic Corp. is also the producer of a Natural, Balanced, Deodorized and Concentrated Omega-3, which is also a Pharmaceutical Grade Omega-3.

Nutri-Med Logic’s products (http://www.nutrimedlogic.com) are Formulated Based on Nutritional Logic, made from the highest quality raw materials that are manufactured in pharmaceutical facilities, encapsulated in pharmaceutical facilities and packaged in pharmaceutical facilities.

It must be noted that the studies, sources or statements above have not been evaluated by The FDA and, thus, one should not relate the cause or diagnosis of any diseases, stated herein, to lack of the dietary supplements stated herein; nor equate their supplementation to prevention, treatment or cure.

Rooted in DNA Science, GenoVives New Year, New You Program Takes Aim on Americas Obesity Epidemic


New Orleans (PRWEB) December 22, 2011

As medical research continues to uncover the connection between DNA and weight loss, GenoVive, a pioneer in DNA-based diet solutions, has launched an introductory program aimed at helping Americans jump-start their weight loss programs as the new year begins.

The New Year, New You program represents a modern approach to weight loss that starts with DNA testing and analysis and results in customized meal and exercise plans with online support and nutritional supplements that together lead to healthy and sustainable weight loss.

Weight management is the outcome of the balance between energy consumption and energy utilization, which is ultimately influenced by individual genes and genetic variation, said San San Ng, PhD, Molecular Biology (ASCP)CM, and Director of Scientific Affairs for GenoVive. Current research shows that fad, one-size-fits-all or elimination diets that are not based on individual DNA analysis will not deliver optimal results for all people. Weight management programs that feature the ideal combinations of macronutrients and exercise regimens for specific genotypes, teach people how their individual bodies respond to certain foods. And that, in the end, leads to healthier and more sustainable weight loss.

A member of GenoVives Scientific Advisory Board, Dr. Ngs research interest is in an emerging field in nutrition called nutrigenomics, which is the study of the effects of foods on gene expression and the role certain genes play in weight gain. GenoVives New Year, New You program is rooted in this science and starts with an in-depth analysis of an individuals DNA to determine that persons specific genetic disposition for weight gain including how the body processes and mobilizes fat, metabolizes sugars and carbohydrates and responds to various levels of exercise. Based on the results of the DNA test, GenoVive develops meal and exercise programs that are customized to work for that persons unique genetic makeup.

According to GenoVive founder, Vic Castellon, a pharmacist with a background in DNA sciences, some individuals are genetically predisposed to gain weight more easily than others, resist or regain weight loss, store weight in the abdominal area, or any combination of these outcomes.

Our geneticists reviewed more than 2,000 studies on the impact of genes on weight loss and identified 12 gene variants that are key to sustained weight loss, said Castellon. A weight management program that is based on individual genetic profiles dramatically increases the chances for healthy weight loss success over the long-term.

Recent research also illustrates how food additives, preservatives and hormones disrupt cell function and hinder weight loss. Because food carries information to our genes about the environment, they serve as signals to our surrounding cells and can change the expression of certain genes. Unlike other major weight loss programs, all food in the GenoVive programs is 100 percent natural and does not contain:

????Growth hormones
????Antibiotics
????Preservatives such as BHA or BHT
????Nitrates or sulfites
????Artificial sweeteners or sugar alcohols
????Other similar incidental ingredients that may not be required to appear on the label

The New Year, New You program will be offered for a limited time only. For $ 599.98, or less than $ 20 per day, the weight loss solution includes:

????Weight management DNA test kit, a simple, cheek-swab sample kit that can be used and mailed from home
????In-depth, weight management genetic profile report available via mail or secure online download
????One-month supply of a customized all-natural, six-day per week meal program including 24 daily meal kits complete with breakfast, lunch, dinner, and two snacks.
????A 30-day supply of nutritional supplements including Gen-Multi Vitamin and Mineral Supplement, Gen-Biotics probiotic with digestive enzymes, and Gen-Omega Omega-3 supplement.
????Customized exercise plan with 36 different daily routines featuring exercise videos and schedules.
????Access to the online Gen-V Community with educational materials and supportive community discussions, forums and blogs.

GenoVive is sold directly to the consumer through GenoVive.com and by phone with convenient home delivery. For more information, visit GenoVive on Twitter @myGenovive, Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/GenoVive, and YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/GenoVivednadiet.
