A local group of women have found the motivation and camaraderie they need to stick with a fitness routine. seeMOMMYrun.com is a web site for moms to locate other moms for walking and running groups across northern Virginia. Instead of spending time and money at the gym, these moms strap their children in jogging strollers and hit the trails. And they do it weekly. The ages of the women involved typically range from early 20s to mid 40s, depending upon what age they chose to start their families. Women form their own groups or join existing groups that walk several miles or run a number of distances at varying paces. SeeMOMMYrun helps solve one of the biggest medical issues in America, the fact that Americans weigh too much and move too little.

Gold Star Nutrition has successfully launched a new combination fat loss energy product called Power Thin Phase II. Capitalizing on the success of Original Power Thin, Power Thin Phase II picks up where the original left off. Gold Star Nutrition enlisted the help of a Master Nutritional Biochemist and Registered Dietitian to design and develop this ground breaking formula. The basis of the new formulation is a proprietary combination of AdvantraZ?, Caffeine, Yohimbe, Green Tea EGCG, Gugglesterones and other synergistic ingredients. AdvantraZ? is patented for burning fat and suppressing appetite. Caffeine mobilizes stored body fat for energy while EGCG from Green Tea supports the metabolism to burn more calories daily. Guggulsterones are used to support healthy thyroid function and cholesterol levels. Gold Star Nutrition notes Power Thin Phase II should be used as the centerpiece of your healthy weight loss plan but that you still should get regular exercise to maintain a healthy heart and good muscle tone as well as eating a balanced diet that provides optimal levels of carbs, proteins, and fats. Power Thin Phase II was designed to give you the extra metabolic support you need to achieve your weight loss goals and have energy to spare for all the other important things in life too.

There are more than 3000 different chemicals added to our food. Manufacturers add these chemicals to make the food last longer, look better or taste better. Many of them are dangerous. Some cause cancer. So why are they allowed in our food? Powerful food industry lobbies put political pressure on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to allow small amounts of cancer-causing substances in our food. So, not only are many of our foods not healthy, they're unsafe. But you'll probably never find out because the companies that produce the chemicals or add them to your food usually do the testing for safety.

Nobody knows the effects of the many different additives used in the thousands of different combinations.
