GREGORY CHANDLER - HUPERZINE

Huperzine extract is sourced from club moss. Huperzine has been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine. Many opine that huperzine prevents the breakdown of acetylcholine in the brain. This process is thought to keep one's mind focused and memory strong.

The limited research on huperzine shows mixed results. Until more research is conducted,
it will not be known if huperzine is of any substantial benefit.

I read an article recently that suggests that one freeze fish oil capsules and swallow them frozen. The frozen fish oil capsule will thaw in the digestive system. This process will keep one from burping up the fish taste. I will try this.

Gregory Chandler - Caffeine

According to research, caffeine can boost one's workout performance. This is the finding in a study published in the January 2011 issue of the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research.

On two laboratory visits, 13 moderately trained male subjects performed bench press repetitions to failure at 60 percent of their one-rep maximum. On one visit, they ingested caffeine, and on the other visit they took a placebo. Researchers found that subjects completed significantly greater weight when using caffeine. The caffeine group also had higher "mood state scores" for "vigor" and lower scores for "fatigue."

Gregory Chandler - Olive Oil

Many individuals do not realize that olive oil--a fat--is also a fat burner. Olive oil helps burn fat, optimize the body's metabolism, and may lessen oxidative stress on the heart. These findings are published in the October 2010 issue of Nutrition Journal. The researches opine that olive oil's phenolic compounds, specifically oleuropein and caffeic acid, may be responsible for these benefits.

Gregory Chandler - Hand Care With Sugar

Common table sugar is one way remedy flaky hand skin. First, wet your hands with water. Second, coat your hands with sugar. Although common table sugar may be used, the coarser the sugar, the more hand relief you will get. The rough grains of the sugar scrub away flakes and dead skin cells.

If possible, use demerara, a dark sugar with large granules.

Gregory Chandler, Apple-Cider Vinegar for Insect Bites

Apple-Cider vinegar is a must-have for cooking and first aid. Earlier, I wrote about the use of Apple-Cider vinegar in athlete's foot control. Another use for Apple-Cider vinegar is for relief from insect bites.

Dab the Apple-Cider vinegar onto each insect bite with a paper towel. The acidity of the Apple-Cider vinegar can help reduce the swelling and curb your urge to scratch the bite area.

GREGORY CHANDLER, ATTORNEY AT LAW, ON OLIVE OIL

I often write about consuming olive oil. However, olive oil also has some topical uses as a skin cream. Olive oil closely resembles the natural oils found in the body. These oils can be stripped away by harsh soaps and dry heat.

To get the beneficial results of olive oil, smooth a few drops onto your palm and rub it into your skin to soften rough spots and form a protective moisture barrier.
