freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “The Interactive Health Group of PCE Fitness, and Exercise is Medicine, a multi-organizational initiative coordinated by the American College of Sports Medicine, are revolutionizing the way physicians prescribe exercise to their patients. An innovative online system developed by the Interactive Health Group will link healthcare providers, patients and exercise professionals and make physical activity a standard part of disease prevention and treatment.”



A R T I C L E:

The Interactive Health Group of PCE Fitness, and Exercise is Medicine®, a multi-organizational initiative coordinated by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM - exerciseismedicine.org), are revolutionizing the way physicians prescribe exercise to their patients. An innovative online system, developed by the Interactive Health Group, will link healthcare providers, patients and exercise professionals and make physical activity a standard part of disease prevention and treatment.

To support Exercise is Medicine®, the Interactive Health Group is adding an exercise prescription module to their existing solution platform, making it simpler and more efficient for physicians to prescribe exercise and refer patients to exercise professionals when appropriate.

"We've seen the power of exercise to prevent and treat chronic diseases," said James Whitehead, CEO of the American College of Sports Medicine. "This tool, being developed with the Interactive Health Group, takes us a giant step toward making physical activity a part of every patient's healthcare plan. A physician can quickly access research-based recommendations to write a customized exercise prescription for every patient. This is transformative."

A survey conducted by the ACSM found that nearly two thirds of patients would be more interested in exercising to stay healthy if advised by their doctor and given additional resources. Four out of ten physicians talk to their patients about the importance of exercise, but don't always offer suggestions on the best ways to be physically active. And twenty-five percent of patients look to their doctor first for advice on exercise and physical activity.

With this partnership, physicians will have an efficient system, accessible from their patient care computer, to risk stratify patients, assess level of physical activity, provide personalized medically appropriate exercise prescriptions, and refer patients to exercise professionals. Patients not needing a referral to exercise in a medically supervised program receive a personal account to self-manage their health and fitness, using tools to track vital stats, select carefully designed exercise programs, log exercise results and track outcomes.

The online system, now undergoing testing and expected to launch later this year, supports Exercise is Medicine goals to:

1. Create broad awareness that exercise is indeed medicine;

2. Make "level of physical activity" a standard vital sign question in each patient visit;

3. Help physicians and other healthcare providers become consistently effective in counseling and referring patients as to their physical activity needs;

4. Produce an expectation among the public and patients that their healthcare providers should and will ask about and prescribe exercise.

The Interactive Health Group is pleased to partner with Exercise is Medicine and provide physicians an efficient, automated system so they can effectively counsel their patients and refer them to professionals as appropriate. More information: www.interactivehealthpartner.com .

Readers Choose LifeSpan TR3000i Treadmill as Best Budget Treadmill

Author: PCE Health and Fitness
Dateline: Salt Lake City, Utah (SALT LAKE CITY, Utah)  | Thu, 17 Mar 2011

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “The LifeSpan TR3000i treadmill, made by PCE Health and Fitness, is the Best Budget Treadmill as chosen by voters in About.com's annual Readers' Choice awards. The LifeSpan TR3000i treadmill was selected over all other treadmills, including other leading brands.”



A R T I C L E:

The LifeSpan TR3000i treadmill, made by PCE Health and Fitness, is the Best Budget Treadmill as chosen by voters in the About.com annual Readers' Choice awards. The LifeSpan TR3000i treadmill was selected over all other treadmills, including other leading brands such as Bowflex(R), NordicTrack and Proform.

About, owned by the New York Times, says "The LifeSpan TR3000i is the winner of the 2011 About Walking Readers' Choice Awards. For walkers, it has a step count display and exercise programs that include heart rate control workouts. LifeSpan brings its treadmills into the modern era with a USB port to use to save your workout data so you can upload it to your private health management account. And you can plug your MP3 player into its high quality speakers. If you need a lower price point, the TR1200i was also nominated."

The LifeSpan TR3000i treadmill also received praise from Fitness Professor earlier this year. "The all new TR3000i offers the quality consumers are looking for in an affordable package, plus LifeSpan's wonderful Fitness Club software. With power, speed and programming to spare, the TR3000i is a great treadmill and our HEAD OF THE CLASS Winner (Best Treadmill under $1,500)."

The LifeSpan Fitness Club provides each member a personalized online account to consolidate and manage exercise data and vital statistics in one place. The TR3000i console includes USB technology, allowing workout data to automatically save to a USB device for easy uploading into the member's account.

The LifeSpan Fitness Club helps members lose weight, reduce medications, train for upcoming runs, and simply live healthier. Members set goals and plan physical activity by creating personalized workout calendars. They enter exercise data and vital stats manually or by uploading data from their USB device. And they stay engaged in their health and fitness through motivating progress reports.

With higher healthcare costs and rising obesity, fitness equipment is challenged to do more than provide a good workout. Success with USB technology and the LifeSpan Fitness Club has led LifeSpan to incorporate it into a suite of exercise equipment and health monitors including the LifeSpan blood pressure monitor and digital bathroom scale.

The recent awards from About and Fitness Professor acknowledge LifeSpan as a fitness industry leader, integrating quality innovative fitness equipment with online health and fitness management.

Gingrich Foundation Recognizes the American Heart Association in Honor of American Heart Month

Author: Gingrich Foundation
Dateline: Washington, District of Columbia (WASHINGTON, D.C.)  | Wed, 02 Feb 2011

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “In honor of American Heart Month this February, the Gingrich Foundation, founded by Callista and Newt Gingrich, has selected the American Heart Association as its Charity of the Month for its commitment to improving cardiovascular health for all Americans.”



A R T I C L E:

In honor of American Heart Month this February, the Gingrich Foundation, founded by Callista and Newt Gingrich, has selected the American Heart Association as its Charity of the Month for its commitment to improving cardiovascular health for all Americans.

"The American Heart Association is extremely pleased to be recognized as Charity of the Month by the Gingrich Foundation as we build upon our efforts to educate Americans about the importance of healthy behaviors during Heart Month," said American Heart Association Chairman Debra Lockwood. "The Association is committed to improving the cardiovascular health of all Americans by 20 percent by 2020 with innovative community outreach and education programs such as Go Red for Women and Wear Red Day on February 4, which are intended to raise awareness and promote heart health. We strongly believe this honor will support our goals to save lives and improve quality of life."

"Heart disease affects Americans of every age, race and gender. The Gingrich Foundation is honored to support the American Heart Association and its work to create a future free of cardiovascular disease for our children and grandchildren," said Callista Gingrich, President of the Gingrich Foundation. "This month, we hope others will join us in supporting the American Heart Association."

Cardiovascular disease claims more lives each year than any other disease in America. Nine out of ten people in the United States have at least one risk factor for heart disease, including obesity, high cholesterol, physical inactivity, or high stress levels.

The American Heart Association (AHA) last year launched its 2020 Impact Goal: to improve the cardiovascular health of all Americans by 20 percent while reducing deaths from cardiovascular diseases and stroke by an additional 20 percent.

AHA funds cutting-edge research, conducts lifesaving public and professional education programs, and advocates for the protection of public health through increased awareness and donor contributions. This includes the "My Heart. My Life." healthy behavior platform, Go Red for Women (http://www.goredforwomen.org/) campaign and Teaching Gardens (http://www.takepart.com/teachinggarden) program to encourage children to be heart-healthy.

The Gingrich Foundation is a domestic non-profit corporation founded by Callista and Newt Gingrich to support charitable purposes.

Reviews Praise Compact LifeSpan Elliptical Trainers

Author: PCE Health and Fitness
Dateline: Salt Lake City, Utah (SALT LAKE CITY, Utah)  | Fri, 28 Jan 2011

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “The 2011 models of LifeSpan compact elliptical trainers, made by PCE Health and Fitness, were highly praised in fitness equipment reviews of best elliptical trainers for 2011. The LifeSpan EL1000 and EL3000i elliptical trainers received positive reviews from fitness equipment review groups Treadmill Doctor and Fitness Professor Review.”



A R T I C L E:

The 2011 models of LifeSpan compact elliptical trainers, made by PCE Health and Fitness (lifespanfitness.com), were highly praised in fitness equipment reviews of best elliptical trainers for 2011. The LifeSpan EL1000 and EL3000i elliptical trainers received positive reviews from fitness equipment review groups Treadmill Doctor and Fitness Professor Review.

Fitness Professor awarded the EL3000i "Head of the Class" winner for best elliptical in its price range, and also praised the EL1000 as "a great feeling elliptical and a real contender in its price class." LifeSpan ellipticals scored high for ergonomics, quality of construction, smoothness and resistance.

Treadmill Doctor awarded the EL3000i Best Buy runner-up, and rated LifeSpan ellipticals high in reliability and value. "With major improvements over LifeSpan's old elliptical designs, the EL1000 has become a reliable choice at $999... LifeSpan's products won't disappoint you. This is one of the better choices this year... The EL1000 and the EL3000i are both solid values."

In addition to review group ratings, a respected Collegiate Instructor of Exercise Science praised LifeSpan elliptical trainers in a recent product evaluation. According to James Menz, MS, CSCS, CES, "LifeSpan ellipticals boast a lower and more rhythmic stride, enhanced arm motion, and better overall body positioning. They are as comfortable in the fortieth minute as in the fourth."

Below are highlights from the evaluation:
* The angled arm piece creates a converging arm swing, much more in harmony with the user's natural upper body motion.
* Handlebar placement keeps the arms comfortably engaged, even for prolonged sessions.
* The knees are kept in a slightly flexed, or "softened" position throughout the descent and stride. Many ellipticals, even much more expensive models, force the knee into hyperextension (locked position).
* Pedal spacing and step up height are superior to models costing hundreds or even thousands of dollars more.
* The user's body is beautifully centered and balanced, encouraging the user to stay on longer, and allowing seamless transitions to and from the hands-free position.

Compact LifeSpan EL1000 and EL3000i ellipticals save floor space, and the low step-up height makes them ideal for low-ceiling rooms. Ergonomic Natural FIT features include comfortable closely-spaced pedals, uniquely-designed handlebars that narrow the width as your arms extend forward, and a perfected elliptical stride pattern so arms and legs flow naturally to simulate your body's everyday movement.

Never Forget to Take an Important Pill Again

Author: Daily Pill Calls
Dateline: Seattle, Washington (SEATTLE, Wash.)  | Wed, 08 Sep 2010

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “SEATTLE, Wash. -- Forgetting to take a pill can lead to not only short term, but also long-term health problems. Daily Pill Calls ensures that people avoid both. According to one study, about one third to one half of Americans do not take their medications as prescribed. This can be detrimental to people's health and their pocketbooks.”



A R T I C L E:

Forgetting to take a pill can lead to not only short term, but also long-term health problems. Daily Pill Calls ensures that people avoid both. According to one study, about one third to one half of Americans do not take their medications as prescribed. This can be detrimental to people's health and their pocketbooks.

DailyPillCalls.com is a service that sends its clients daily reminder messages directly to their home phone, cell phone or via text message. Each calling schedule is designed to meet the specific needs of its clients, from one to five times per day.

Aneel Robinson, owner of Daily Pill Calls, founded the company out of a personal need. He had high blood pressure and was supposed to be taking three pills a day. Like many, he would continually miss taking his medication at the directed times - sometimes, for two or three days in a row. This led to a mini-stroke.

As a result of using his own service, Robinson's blood pressure is back to normal and now he only takes one pill per day.

"This much-needed service is primarily designed to benefit three different groups: patients, doctors and insurance companies," explains Robinson. "Patients will ensure that they take their pills at designated times; doctors will know that their patients are complying; and insurance companies will realize a reduction in claims from non-complying patients."

Additionally, Aneel explains that women who take birth control pills can also benefit from this service.

"It's important for women to take their birth control pill at the same time each day," says Robinson. "This service can help to prevent unwanted pregnancies."

Calls are not limited to medication reminders, they may also include: prescription refill and doctor appointment reminders.

DailyPillCalls.com provides this service to people in the U.S. and Canada. Packages start as low as $3.50 per month.

Green Smoke’s 2 Part E-Cigarette Designed to Meet Consumer Demand

Author: Green Smoke
Dateline: Miami, Florida (MIAMI, Fla.)  | Fri, 25 Jun 2010

freeNewsArticles Story Summary: “MIAMI, Fla. -- Since the concept was first developed almost seven years ago, Green Smoke has capitalized on advances in technology to develop its patented design and catapult the electronic cigarette into the global market, as consumer awareness and demand increases.”



A R T I C L E:

Since the concept was first developed almost seven years ago, Green Smoke has capitalized on advances in technology to develop its patented design and catapult the electronic cigarette into the global market, as consumer awareness and demand increases.

The electronic cigarette is a personal, battery-operated vaporizer that mimics traditional cigarettes offering smokers interested in switching an array of benefits.

When the product was first introduced, it generally had heavy batteries that did not hold a charge well. The shape and design resembled that of a pen with a slick plastic surface. The quality and consistency of the smoke volume and nicotine delivery system also varied. Moreover, every time users wanted to refill their e cigarettes they had to juggle several small components, including the atomizer (the part of the device that produces the vapor), a liquid nicotine solution, the battery, and other mouth piece components.

While many of the e-cigarette brands are still selling three part devices based on an inferior technology, Green Smoke has used every possible technological advantage to produce the best e-cigarette experience for smokers. Their unique two-part design integrates both the nicotine solution and atomizer in one disposable cartridge. This idea makes the Green Smoke e-cigarette easier to use and improves the quality and smoker's overall experience dramatically.

The basic size, shape, color, and texture were all designed to closely resemble a traditional cigarette. When users inhale they get a strong and deep breath of smoke-like vapor that resembles smoke even when exhaling. The product even sports a realistic LED at the tip that glows bright when inhaling. Consumers can choose from different levels of nicotine that suits their personal smoking habits. They also have their choice of flavors that range from traditional tobacco to vanilla and apple.

All these advancements in the e cigarette have created a buzz among consumers looking for a quality alternative to smoking traditional tobacco cigarettes.

About Green Smoke:

Based in Florida, Green Smoke was founded to provide an authentic smoking experience that is less harmful than traditional tobacco. The company offers electronic e-cigarettes, including its patented two-piece design, starter kits and accessories. Visit www.GreenSmoke.com or call 1-888-224-1345 (Toll Free).

A R T I C L E:

June 10 will be a day of activities on Capitol Hill organized by the Food Action Research Center and other partner organizations such as Share Our Strength. The goal is to highlight the importance of fighting childhood hunger in America. Chef Ash Sengson of Please Enjoy Personal Chef and Catering Services from Plano, TX (www.PleaseEnjoy.net) will lobby members of Congress to discuss the Child Nutrition Reauthorization Bill.

Some vital points that Sengson will share with senators and representatives are as follows:

* The Child Nutrition Reauthorization bill will help connect millions of children with the meals they need to thrive. A robust CNR bill will strengthen programs like school breakfast and school lunch, summer meals, after school snacks, and WIC - programs that play a vital role in reducing child hunger across the country.
* With new government statistics showing that 16.7 million children-that's nearly one in four-struggle with hunger, and with so many American families facing hunger for the first time, ensuring a strong child nutrition bill has never been more important.
* In FY2009, 19.5 million low income children received free and reduced price school lunches. This compared to only 9.1 million receiving free and reduced price breakfasts, and only 2.2 million children in summer food programs. Moreover, only 3.1 million children are in child care centers and homes with federally supported child nutrition programs. Clearly these are large gaps in service that must be filled quickly.
* Chef Ash Sengson will urge representatives to pass a strong and fully funded child nutrition reauthorization bill before the end of this year.

Sengson just returned from Washington D.C. after being a guest at the White House for the First Lady Michelle Obama's launch of "Chefs Move To Schools."

"Chefs Move To Schools" will afford an opportunity for chefs around the country to adopt a local school to help solve the childhood obesity epidemic within a generation. "Chefs Move to Schools" will pair chefs with schools in their communities to bring fun to fruits and vegetables, and teach kids about food, nutrition and cooking in an engaging way.

Chef Ash Sengson of Please Enjoy Personal Chef and Catering services has joined the nationwide volunteer team spearheaded by Michelle Obama and will be working with students at a local school. By working with school food service employees, administrators and teachers, Chef Ash Sengson will help deliver these messages from the cafeteria to the classroom.

Sengson has also been working with the North Texas Food Bank through programs such as Operation Frontline. Chef Ash was recently given the Chef Instructor of the Year Award.

"Chef Ash deserves this award because she went beyond the call of duty when volunteer teaching her classes. She didn't do it for the award. She did it because she wanted to because she is passionate about this cause," stated Katherine Lindholm, R.D. of North Texas Food Bank. Chef Ash hopes that her work with the North Texas Food Bank will help show representatives that not only can she talk the talk, but she has already walked the walk.

Chef Ash Sengson is a member of the United States Personal Chef Association (USPCA) and is dedicated to excellence in the industry.

A R T I C L E:

Nine-time Welterweight Champion, Matt Hughes, has endorsed and tested the next big fitness craze for women and men - Cage Fitness. Hughes is a big proponent of fitness. In fact, every year he travels to Capitol Hill and meets with government officials to talk about the importance of health and fitness. Now, Cage Fitness will be added to his talking points.

Cage Fitness is a complete fitness system that is based on the structure of a championship MMA bout. It gives people a total body workout during the course of five, five-minute rounds.

Since MMA athletes are in incredible shape, Cage Fitness sought to replicate these workouts by creating this fitness program.

"Unlike many other fitness programs, the real value of Cage Fitness is that you get a full body, muscle toning, cardio workout in only 30 minutes. To top it off, it has the reality training of Mixed Martial Arts; it's fun and exciting and best of all - there are no partners and no injuries," says Hughes.

The four key elements focused on are: endurance, strength, power and core. These are accomplished through the five rounds and broken up as follows: warm-up; upper body; lower body; combo round; and core/cool down.

Class participants use a patent-pending fitness dummy during their workout; this is a modified grappling dummy with handles, bands and straps.

In an effort to spread the word about this effective, new exercise program and to promote overall health and well being, Hughes is giving away two free weeks of training at any Cage Fitness facility.

About Cage Fitness:

Cage Fitness is designed for teens and adults at all levels of fitness. Individuals can customize their workouts by simply adjusting their intensity level to best suit their personal fitness goals. Each 5-minute round incorporates aerobic and anaerobic exercises to help maximize fat burning and muscle building. This system of training allows people to burn more calories while increasing metabolism.

This exercise program is also endorsed by certified personal trainer, Kai Fusser, who has trained athletes such as Annika Sorenstam, golfer and LPGA major winner; NBA Allstar, Grant Hill; and Olympic gold medalist, Darin Shapiro.
