By Steve Esquire

This is a product review of the high end Sanyo DR-6700 massage chair. Sanyo boasts a full line of massage chairs. The DR-6700 is the model just below the DR7700 which is the top of the line model for Sanyo. We will evaluate some of the advanced electronic features and massage functions of the DR 6700. Here is our evaluation of the Sanyo DR6700 massage chair recliner.

Warranty is the first thing we want to cover and get out of the way. We are amazed at the pace in which features and functions are being added to massage chair. On the flip side of this we also advise our customers to make sure they get sufficient warranty coverage for their long term protection.

Sanyo provides the warranty coverage for the DR-6700 massage chair. The warranty coverage is as follows: You get three years coverage for the roller mechanism. This is the device that provides the massage for your back, neck and shoulders. Otherwise, the rest of the chair gets 1 year for both parts and labor. One good part of the coverage is the one year of in home technician service.

What kind of massage therapy do you get with the DR6700? The DR-6700 comes with four pre-programmed programs. Sanyo has developed themed massage programs which consist of Fine, Recovery, Stiffness and Relax. These programs are well designed and provide for effective massage therapy depending on the focus selected.

Additionally, the Sanyo chair is armed with manual massage techniques. These can be used to target specific symptoms or areas of the body for relief. One of massage techniques for instance is called Grip. The Grip massage treatment uses a gripping action that can soothe and relieve tired and sore muscles. This type of massage is particularly effective for the shoulder and neck areas.

There are many adjustments you can make with the in the manual massage mode. You can select the roller width adjustment. The rollers in the chair back can be set at a wider or narrower depending on where you would like the massage to penetrate. Also, you can adjust the intensity of the massage. You can make it softer or more vigorous. If you are tender, then a softer mode may be appropriate, whereas if you want deeper penetration you can set it stronger.

There are even more options on the area of your back that you would like to target. Choose from neck and shoulders, lower back, lower body and quick course. You can select the massage technique that you wish and then have it focus in these regions. This is very helpful if you have stiffness in a particular area.

The DR-6700 comes with some advanced electronics that are also integrated into the massage chair. There is a Stiffness Detector. This measure the degree or perspiration and pulse rate when your fingers are placed on the secondary remote sensor. The massage chair is then able to determine areas in the body that have unusual tension or stiffness. The on board computer then automatically targets these areas for relief.

The lower body also needs some attention and the DR6700 has just the answer. An air compressor has been installed underneath the seat which activates air bags in the chair. The air bags provide a soothing compression massage. The air bags are specifically designed for each major muscle group in the legs to provide effective relief.

If you are considering a high end massage chair, then you may want to check out the HEC-DR6700 from Sanyo. It has many advanced electronic features that can automatically identify trouble areas of tension and stiffness. There are many relieving massage programs built into the recliner. You also have many manual options to target exactly where you need the attention the most. The Sanyo DR-6700 is certainly a solid massage chair for your long term needs. - 17269

Estrin D to Lose Weight During Menopause

By Ricardo d Argence

Even though menopause is a natural event in every woman's life, the accompanying weight gain has many women worried. It is not very healthy and not good for your complection to gain weight.

Recent studies have shown that the risk of developing high blood pressure increases by a minimum of 5% for each two pound increase in weight. When the estrogen levels decrease it also causes the body's metabolism to slow down, causing the body to cling tightly to its fat resources.

This weight gain also causes several additional health issues. Menopausal weight gain has been linked to certain kinds of cancer including breast cancer, as well as diabetes and heart disease.

The modern science with help of pharmacy industry has made a product, which helps women with menopausal weight loss problems. Since menopauses increases a womans appetite, the claim is that using these weight loss products may help regulate your metabolism. They also state that they can aid women in handling menopausal symptoms as well as protecting them with nutrients.

Estrin is one of the new players in the market of menopausal weight loss products. It claims to have ingredients like caffeine, guarana, yerba, matte and herbal constituents like damiana, ginger, schisandra and Tibetan ginseng. These ingredients are said to help in regulating appetite, increasing metabolism and reduce mood swings, which result from fluctuations in hormonal levels. They are all known to increase the basal metabolic rate in a person. The caffeine present in the product is a natural stimulant as well. However, the question that arises is that can this be used by women undergoing menopause?

Medical research informs us that ingesting caffeine during menopause is a poor idea. Caffeine in normal circumstances can cause an increase in the heart rate, increase blood pressure, sweating. Sometimes women going through menopause may feel some bad effects from ingesting caffeine. To reduce the common symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes, insomnia and night sweats, women are urged to avoid food and beverages with caffeine. Fro women going through menopause caffeine can be a cause for osteoporosis.

Customers point to the fact that the high level of stimulants it contains is inappropriate for females undergoing menopause. These stimulants may cause nausea, anxiety and jitters in women. Besides, stimulants do not guarantee sustained weight loss. In addition, there is nothing in the formula to decrease the appetite. There is no guarantee to loose fat with caffeine compared to a patented fat burner. In addition, the product comes with a fairly steep price tag and there is no money back guarantee.

Instead of relying on these supplements, proper diet and exercise can be the solution to menopause problems. Frequent exercise and the elimination of fatty and/or fried foods from your diet is all you need. - 17269

Weight Loss Products for Menopause, Zalestra

By Ricardo d Argence

A big point in a woman's life is menopause. It is definitely a sign of crossing one stage and entering the other. Having one or more of these signs: mood swings, loss of sexual desire, irritability and weight gain can be signs of menopause. Gaining weight is on of the more bothersome issues and even women who live a healthy and active lifestyle are not immune.

These days there are a lot of weight loss products in the market which claim to take care of this menopausal weight gain. They promise to reduce your weight without any side effects. How true are their claims and are they really what they seem? Before we discuss that, let's understand why weight gain is almost an integral part of menopause.

Here are some reasons why weight gain happens in menopause: One of the consequences of growing older is a reduction in the efficiency and the speed of digestion. As a result the food takes longer to digest which means that your body absorbs more nutrients and fat and calories from food.

Estrogen has a direct connection with the fat metabolization. When the estrogen levels decrease in menopause then the fat metobolization is affected. As a result the body stores more fat than before to compensate this drop in estrogen. This causes the entire chain of metabolism to get affected.

Heart disease and diabetes are just two conditions that can develop after menopause in women who have trouble maintaining a healthy weight.

Obviously when your metabolism is affected in menopause, you need some help in setting it right and that's where these menopausal weight loss products come in. These days Zalestra is quite well known in these products.

Zalestra contains a large array of ingredients including mega soy extract, DHEA, Carbinoal, and various other fruit extracts. Such ingredients aid in alleviating menopausal symptoms and guard the system again damaging menopausal results.

Zalestra works in three different ways: suppresses the appetite, increases the thermogenic output and supports the thyroid.

Many women experience a drop in their energy levels during their menopause phase and this can be taken care by Zalestra without taking products containing caffeine.

The positive side to this product is that it's made of natural ingredients. It also seems to be a one stop solution for all weight loss needs.

Soy in Zalestra has recently been shown to be accountable for disturbing the hormonal balance of the body instead of putting the hormonal balance in place. Zalestra does not have any clinical evidence that it works to lose weight. Moreover the company does not even seem to be offering a free sample to back its claims.

The right diet and exercise can keep menopausal effects at bay. This is a very delicate situation in every woman's life. Because of this it is suggested that you only use these products under a doctor's guidance. A good diet with exercise can do a great deal to help. - 17269

Raw Food Benefits

By George B. Siba

What is the Raw Food Diet? The raw food diet is more than salads, carrots and celery sticks. Raw cuisine can be delicious and interesting, or it can be dreary. Some of the world's best resorts now offer raw food menus and there has been a great effort by chiefs around the world to come up with recipes that are worth eating.

At least 75 percent of the food that is eaten in the raw food diet is not cooked. Heating food above 116 degrees F destroys the enzymes in the food that helps with digestion. Foods that are included in the raw food diet are fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, sprouted grains, legumes, seaweeds, dried fruit, freshly made juices, raw carob powder, cold pressed olive oil and certain spices, seasonings and mineral water. Dried food is allowable because drying doesnt kill off the enzymes.

Raw foods are high in vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, dietary fibers, antioxidants and lots of live goodness. Most raw foods are easily digested; this saves your bodys energy for other things. Raw fruit and vegetables are high in water content, this helps with the constipation that can sometimes happen on a high fiber diet.

Most foods in nature contain the enzymes needed for your body to break them down. When we cook food, we destroy these enzymes. This means we have to break them down ourselves using our own digestive juices.

The enzymes our body makes arent as efficient as the natural ones, and our body has to work hard to make them. This takes resources away from out bodys systems that keep us from being susceptible to illness, disease and premature ageing. If we eat raw food that helps with the digestion process; we dont have to draw on these resources that could be put to better use.

One of the benefits of the raw food diet is active enzymes. Most of the foods in natural state contain the enzymes needed to break them down. When food is cooked, these enzymes are destroyed. This means we have to break them down ourselves using digestive enzymes our body has to make. This takes energy and our enzymes arent as efficient as the natural ones, and our body has to work hard to make them. If we eat raw food that has the enzymes that helps digest it; we dont use our bodys energy to do this and we can live longer, healthier lives.

Fruit and vegetables have high water content, this helps with the constipation that can sometimes be a problem with a high fiber diet. Many people report having clearer skin and stronger nails and fuller hair. I dont know of anyone who has not lost at least some weight when they switched.

Part of the raw food diet includes suggestions like which food should be eaten together, eating only organic food, and only eating sprouted grains. This can be hard to stick to for some of us, I found the best way to go at it is to start off with something raw every meal and then add a raw food every week. Add nuts, seeds or a salad or fruit to your meals. By doing this you are adding active enzymes that will help you digest the food faster and you are easing into eating raw.

Whole, ripe, raw, organic foods in their natural state are what your body needs to be vibrant and free of disease. - 17269

Diabetes Weight Loss Diet

By Dan Reto

The problems of diabetes can be treated to diminish symptoms if the proper steps are taken. More and more individuals are suffering from diabetes yearly, and it is important for people (both diabetics and non diabetics) to control their eating and exercise habits.

Exercise assists your body in using insulin more effectively so that your bodies' glucose is changed into energy for cells. Now, apart from exercising, as mentioned before, it is essential to keep a healthy diet for diabetics. People with diabetes tend to notice that they gain weight much easier than people who do not have diabetes. No worries though, as there are diets that can help you.

Broadly Speaking, diabetics should try to have around 1200 calories per day. This is just an approximation though, and may vary depending on factors such as age, sex, size, etc It is also important to eat very regularly. Do not go on for more than 3 to 4 hours without eating.

This will help keep your cravings down throughout the day. This is much better than not eating for 10 hours and then end up having an eating rage. On another note, it is crucial to have at least 45 minutes to an hour worth of exercise per day, or at the least 5 times a week (for those who have a busy schedule).

Try to select a diet that is healthy for you. Do not pick something that you know you will not be able to go through with. A diet takes dedication, and realistically, some diets are VERY hard to follow, so make sure it is something you can stick with. It is important to not give up if you do not see results after a couple of weeks. Diets are not meant to show big results within weeks. Diets take time to work, so do not give up! - 17269

Why Use Diet a Diet Delivery Service?

By Sarah Talbot

If you are not yet familiar with the new term 'diet delivery', it is a fairly new development in the weight loss market that supplies a chef, dietition and a personal shopper in one package, all designed with one goal in mind, to help you lose those added pounds. You can receive valuable help from a diet delivery service, even specifically designed programs to your specifications, because they understand how difficult it can be to stick to a plan.

All the meals that are prepared, are low in fat and calories, but all are nutritionally balanced. Your daily meal will be prepared by an expert chef, who understands your nutritional needs while you are trying to lose weight. Your only requirement, once the food has been delivered to your door, is to decide when throughout the day you will enjoy it. Are you starting to see why having your meals delivered to you every day could be the best thing you ever did to finally start to lose weight?

Smaller diet delivery services can usually tailor a diet to your personal needs, rather than the larger, more corporate services who have set menus. This means that if you want to cut certain sugars or foods out of your diet, or there are particular foods you want to put into your diet, you can ask for these variations in your diet plan. You can make requests for completely different foods if you become tired with the plan and want to substitute other foods that will still be inline with your calorie intake. It is all a painless process that helps you become slimmer, makes life easier and the huge benefit that your food will be tastier!

So what would be an average cost of hiring a diet delivery service. Depending on which company and plan you opt for, these services can range from $10 a day to $80 or more, depending on your budget. Plans can range from five meals per day, five days a week, delivered before 6am, while others only include three meals a day. It is also wise to remember that sometimes delivery charges are not included in the price of food delivered. It is important that become committed to the diet program once you start or you will be throwing away alot of money.

Using some form of diet delivery service has proven to be a beneficial method for those tough dieters, as well as for folks that lead a life where cooking is impossible. Youll find that many of the diet delivery companies only provide service to certain areas. The bigger corporate businesses deliver more regionally. If youve got the money, and a wish to commit yourself to losing weight, then using a diet delivery service could be just the ticket for you. - 17269

Is The Mediterranean Diet A Fad Diet

By Ron George

The Mediterranean diet is a diet based on consuming the foods individuals who live in the Mediterranean basin eat. The Mediterranean basin includes portions of Italy, France, and even the Sahara Desert a generally mild winters with long, hot summers.

Most people who mention the Mediterranean diet are really talking about a diet created by Walter Willett. The diet includes wine, red meat, olive oil, eggs, fish, poultry and a healthy amount of physical activity.

The diet strictly control fat so that only a total of about 35% of calories come from fat. Experts consider it a high fiber diet. It became popular in the 1990's, but the Mediterranean diet has been around since 1945.

Whereas American diets rely on animal fats, the Mediterranean diet utilizes olive oil. Olive oil has many benefits such as lowering cholesterol and blood sugar. Olive oil is also good for treating ulcers and for lowering the risk of many types of cancer. Red wine also adds to the mix in that it contains elements with antioxidant properties.

The Mediterranean diet is really a series of diets partially recommended by the American Heart Association. The association is apprehensive about the high amount of fat in the Mediterranean diet. They say obesity is a growing health concern in the Mediterranean basin.

The AHA does take comfort in the fact that mono saturated fats such as those found in olive oil don't raise cholesterol levels. It could be that increased health in the basin comes from increased physical activity, rather than from diet.

Advance Wellness Research Acai Berry Promotional Offer

By Linda Kemp

If you've been paying attention to any aspect of the sciences of health and diet, then you've probably heard about free radicals. In case you haven't heard about free radicals, then you definitely need to know more about them. Free radicals aren't terrorists that have gotten loose or holdovers from the nineteen sixties anti-war movement. Rather, free radicals are chemicals that have a detrimental effect on the tissues that make up the human body. Worse yet, free radicals can damage DNA and without intact DNA it's more difficult for the body to repair other kinds of damage. In fact, damaged DNA can also lead to cancer! With all of the problems that free radicals can cause, anything that can counteract them would be extremely beneficial to human health!

Fortunately, free radicals can be counteracted through the use of antioxidants. Antioxidants are chemicals that absorb free radicals so that they can't damage the tissues of the human body! There are a lot of chemicals that work as antioxidants and they're found in a number of different types of foods. Of course not all foods are equally good at delivering antioxidants to the human body. Some are much better than others and the best one that has been stumbled onto so far is the acai berry!

The acai berry not only contains a large dose of antioxidants, but it also does a great job of delivering that dose! This is especially true when those antioxidants are packed into a supplement such as Pure Acai Berry. Pure Acai Berry takes all of the components of the acai berry that make it such a great food and puts them all into a pill that makes an great nutritional supplement! In effect, you can take a single dose of Pure Acai Berry with your breakfast and enjoy all of the benefits of having this super food in your diet throughout the course of the entire day!

The antioxidants contained in the acai berry- in combination with all of the other substances that the acai berry can provide to the human body- have a tremendous number of benefits! In fact, this kind of food provides benefits to all of the body's systems and processes. It aids in nutrition, helps the circulatory system, strengthens the immune system, boosts the metabolism, increases the ability of the liver and kidneys to purify the blood, makes memory function better, and even improves fertility!

The biggest benefit that you'll probably notice when taking Pure Acai Berry is an increase in your level of energy. This is understandable when you think about the fact that if your entire body is working more efficiently you'll have more energy for everything else in your life! For example, if your metabolism is boosted, the food that you eat can be fueling you throughout a busy day rather than being deposited in unwanted places as fat. Similarly, if your immune system is stronger than more of your energy can be devoted to everything other than fighting off viruses and bacteria!

Of course, it can be tough to sort out exactly what component of the acai berry provides which benefit to the human body, but one of the great things about he acai berry is that the combination of healthy compounds produce favorable results when it comes to improving your overall health! - 17269
