Why Be Active?

Regular physical activity has many benefits. It is a potent stress buster, it can help keep weight off and it lowers your risk of developing major chronic diseases. Additional benefits include increased energy, stronger bones and muscles, improved sleep, improved body shape, a boost to mental wellbeing and a change in your outlook on life.

For some quick tips, see below.

1. Renew your commitment to a healthy lifestyle. Think about increasing the types of activities that work for your lifestyle and that can easily be built into your day. Make it a point to read up on fitness news and information, such as this article about exercise. Put your fitness plan into action today!

2. Aerobic exercise is important for the cardiovascular system. It’s defined by repetitive motion such as running, swimming or cycling. It can also tone muscles. Incorporating a little of both aerobic and resistance training is best for your daily routine.

3. Set small, specific goals you can stick to (like losing 5 percent of body weight or exercising three times a week, etc.) Drink green tea (which helps promote weight loss). Snack on fresh fruits and vegetables during your day.

4. Resistance exercise is important for healthy muscles and bones. It also builds strength. It’s defined by activities with short bursts of energy, such as weight lifting, playing sports and even pushing a lawn mower. Ideally, you need both resistance exercise and aerobic exercise to keep your body operating at its peak.

5. Simple ways work for getting fit – you don’t need to join a gym. If you become more active in your everyday life – such as parking your car further and walking more, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, or even walking to a co-worker’s desk instead of emailing them – you’ll get fit faster.

6. Your metabolism doesn’t slow with age. It’s just that as people get older they do less strength-training and can lose lean muscle mass. The more lean muscle tissue you have, the higher your metabolism – and the faster you’ll lose weight. Keep your exercise and activity levels up each year, and you’ll simultaneously maintain your muscle tone, keep your metabolism up and maximize healthy weight loss.

7. At least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity activity, at least five times each week, will keep you physically active. You can split each half hour into three 10-minute sessions. If 30 minutes are out of reach right now, start with what you can do and gradually build up.

8. Keep hydrated by consuming at least two liters of water each day. It is even more important to drink water before, during and after exercise. Even low-intensity exercise requires you to be well-hydrated.

9. Rest between workouts and allow your body time to recover.

Meal Replacements: A Great Strategy for Weight Management

By Susan Bowerman, M.S., R.D., C.S.S.D

When it comes to dieting, most people approach the process by controlling portions and counting calories. But oftentimes, despite even the best efforts, the scale refuses to budge. Inaccuracies in counting calories and estimating portion sizes are two of the biggest obstacles to successful weight loss.

The beauty of meal replacements is that portion control is taken care of, and they're designed to provide great nutrition within a defined number of calories. On top of that, they are simple and convenient for today's busy lifestyles.

Portion control is one of the primary strategies in controlling calorie intake. Many people don't take the time to weigh and measure foods - or if they do, they usually stop after a while, thinking they can estimate portions fairly well. Portion sizes may then begin to creep up, and weight loss starts to slow down. More often than not, portion sizes will then gradually increase and the rate of weight loss slows.

And then there are the practical issues - some may not realize that the 3-ounce portion of meat specified in a meal plan is the size of a deck of cards. Or, perhaps they forget that everything counts, including any fats used in cooking or at the table, or foods that are eaten while standing at the sink or while driving in the car. A few small omissions over the course of a day or week can derail anyone's progress.

Meal replacement shakes take the guesswork out of calorie and portion control, while delivering healthy ingredients and great taste. A number of clinical studies have shown that using meal replacements as part of a weight loss plan can be more effective than counting calories with an all-food plan. In a recent study at the University of Ulm in Germany, subjects drinking two Formula 1 shakes a day (European Formula) lost more weight than people in the study who simply counted calories.

Meal replacement shakes can also be customized, too. By choosing to mix with milk or soy milk, adding a favorite fruit, or tossing in some extra protein powder, a personalized meal can be had in minutes. Convenient, delicious, healthy, portion controlled meals – what more could a dieter ask for?

Fat-Free, Sugar-Free, Calorie-Free?

By Susan Bowerman, MS, RD, CSSD

It's been some time since the fat-free food craze began, but with ongoing reports of the downside of eating too much dietary fat, food manufacturers continue to tempt us with literally thousands of low fat and fat-free foods on supermarket shelves. But buyers should beware – foods designated as light, lowfat or fat-free may not save you calories.

Some of the labels on the first fat-modified foods screamed "light" - leading unwary shoppers to conclude that the products could be eaten with abandon. Only on closer inspection of the nutrition facts was it apparent that many "light" products weren't necessarily lighter in calories, dashing hopes for truly guilt-free snacks and sweets.

Labeling laws are pretty clear on this point – foods like "light" mayonnaise or "light" salad dressing are labeled as such because they have one-third the calories of the traditional form of the food, or half the fat. But if not referring to less fat or calories, the term "light" might also refer to a light taste, color, or texture, and it may take a keen eye to catch these references on a label. "Light" olive oil is lighter in taste – but it has just as many calories as the extra virgin.

Products with less than a half a gram of fat per serving can be labeled "fat-free" – so unless you eat several times the recommended serving, you can figure that your fat intake from that food will be reasonably low. But compare your fat-free version with the standard food before you decide.

With baked goods like cookies or pastries, the fat-free items often have a lot more sugar than the regular version – with no real difference in calories per serving. Sometimes the original food doesn't have that much fat to begin with, so it may be better to stick with that product since the fat-free versions often cost more, too.

The same principles apply when it comes to "sugar-free" foods – products with less than a half a gram per serving can be labeled as such. But consume enough of them, and it can still make a contribution to your calorie intake. Some people eat "sugar-free" candy like there's no tomorrow – and can take in several hundred calories a day if they're not careful.

Due to health concerns, food manufacturers have been scrambling to remove trans fats from many of their products, but in some cases they have replaced trans fats with saturated fats – which can also raise cholesterol levels. And as with sugar, foods with less than a half a gram of trans fat per serving can be labeled "trans fat-free" – so read labels and watch your servings.
Some foods aren't "free" of a particular ingredient, but have less of it than the regular product. Reduce a nutrient, such as fat, by 25 percent or more and labels can tout the words ‘"reduced" or "less" or "fewer" – as in "reduced calorie mayonnaise" or "60 percent fewer calories than regular mayonnaise".

Food manufacturers have heard consumers loud and clear, and work to meet continued demand for tasty products with less fat, calories or sugar. And while the labeling laws are pretty clear, a little comparison shopping is still in - order. Those fat-free cookies may keep your fat intake down, but boost your sugar intake – you may end up paying more and saving few, if any, calories.

Protein Snacks

By David Heber, M.D., Ph.D., F.A.C.P., F.A.C.N.

It is well established that the typical person eating a western-type diet consumes more daily calories than he needs. High-calorie snacks filled with fats and sugars contribute to these extra calories. Protein packed bars, drinks, soups, and nuts are far superior to other snacks because of the inherent differences between protein and sugars and fats.

First off, protein is more satisfying than the other two macronutrients because of specific signals it sends to the brain. When we snack on protein instead of sugars and fats, the body feels more full which helps people control their appetite between meals thus cutting calories and controlling their weight. Recent clinical research has supported this physiologic phenomenon.

A second reason for choosing protein as a snack is its thermogenic effect. This refers to the metabolic tax a food puts on the body after we eat it. This metabolic tax for protein is much higher than sugar or fat because the body uses more energy to digest it. This means that when you choose protein over the other two, you are burning more calories during the process of digestion. Having this higher tax rate is good because protein tends to be low in caloric content, so the body is working harder on fewer calories.

A third reason to choose protein snacks over sugars and fats is the body's need to replenish the building blocks of muscle tissue. Muscle is important for our daily activities and it determines our metabolism. So the more we maintain our healthy lean muscle mass, the higher we maintain metabolism.

So the next time you reach for a snack, choose a protein-rich bar, drink or soup. Avoid high-calorie chips, cookies, candies and sweets. They are generally much higher in calories, and they offer little nutritional value to the body.

Dr. Heber also serves as chairman of the Herbalife Scientific and Nutrition Advisory Boards.

Privileges of Supervisor


Supervisor Requalification

Privileges of Supervisor

Supervisor level is where your business gets even better, and you start receiving more benefits and privileges. And if you are already a Supervisor, you'll want to requalify to continue enjoying all of those benefits.

As a Supervisor, you purchase Herbalife® products at a 50% discount – and that's all year long; you're also eligible for Royalty Override Earnings and for Production Bonus Earnings; plus, you're eligible to qualify for vacation promotions and attend special training events, for as long as you requalify each year!

If you don't requalify, you lose your 50% discount and fall back to Senior Consultant with a 35% discount. Also, you lose any downline Supervisors to your first upline Supervisor, meaning you'll lose the privilege of earning Royalty Overrides.

How To Requalify

Requalify in one of the following three ways during the 12-month period from February 1 2010 until January 31 2011:

1. Achieve 4,000 Volume Points in 1 month with at least 1,000 Volume Points Unencumbered.*

2. Achieve 2,500 Volume Points in each of two consecutive months, with at least 1,000 of these Volume Points Unencumbered* each month.

3. Accumulate 4,000 Unencumbered* Volume Points within the qualification period. However, when you requalify with this accumulated method, you'll lose any downline Supervisors to your first upline Supervisor, but you will keep your Supervisor status, your 50% discount and your non-Supervisor downline.

Show Your Downline the Value of Requalification

You've worked hard to build your organization, so make sure you requalify in order to keep your organization intact. Set a good example by requalifying yourself, and then help your downline Supervisors to requalify. It's simple when you use the downloadable tools below.

Requalification Video

Learn about the importance of Supervisor requalification from Chairman's Club member, John Tartol.

Requalification Flyer

Distribute this flyer to all your downline Supervisors and remind them to set their goal toward requalifying. (link to PDF file)

BizWorks eCard

Send a motivational eCard to your Supervisors (eCards are available to BizWorks subscribers only).

Requalification Reports

Stay informed on who needs to requalify. Subscribers with BizWorks Downline or Complete package can access the Supervisor Requalification Report. For Millionaire Team members and above, who earn at least a 4% Production Bonus, track your downline Supervisors using the Lineage Reports.

It's clear the smart move is requalification! Remember, you have until January 31 to requalify each year.

*Unencumbered Volume is volume that is not used by anyone in your personal organization for Supervisor qualification or requalification purposes.
