Sports nutrition can be defined as simply the specific nutritional intake before, during, and after an athletic event or exercise session. My definition of an organic athlete is an athlete which seeks to achieve Xtreme Health™, maximum performance levels, and joyful living, by consuming primarily vegetarian, mostly raw, organic foods. A vegetarian can be a full vegan who consumes no meats, fish, poultry, or dairy products. Or you can be a semi-vegetarian and occasionally eat eggs, fish, and or poultry but not meat. What I would like to do in this article is share an enormous amount of knowledge for those who are seeking an organic lifestyle, in particular, a vegan lifestyle, while simultaneously competing in endurance events.

An understanding of the importance of enzymes might just be one of the key elements missing in ones awareness of optimal health. When I first heard about enzymes I had no idea what they were. I had a clue that they had something to do with digestion but I felt there was more to this miracle biological element. In fact, the more I have learned about enzymes the more I am convinced they are probably one of the most important elements in a lifestyle which lends itself to super nutrition.

I speak often on the subject of nutrition, health, wellness, and fitness and several things have become clear to me. Almost everyone wants to lose weight, look better, feel better, have more energy, feel happiness and joy and just plain and simply have more fun and enjoy life. However, very few people either have the knowledge of how to do it, will listen to any advice, or if they do have good intentions their actions don't always catch up with those intentions. They simply have a hard time with change when it comes to lifestyle choices and food choices. After all, isn't that why most diets fail? Do this, don't do that, eat more of this, eat less of that. It becomes overwhelming and eventually you quit. It's the same concept as people that want to be rich but aren't willing to make the sacrifices necessary to make the money and keep it in your life.

Don’t touch that Dial!! And I don’t mean the dial on your TV but the dial on your Microwave. I have not used a microwave oven in quite some time. When I did use one I had always had this awkward gut feeling like something was strange about a bright light and a weird wind like sound that would heat up the food I placed in the microwave. I never liked what I did not understand. I still do not know the technical details behind how a microwave oven works or how it heats food but what I do know is to me it feels unnatural.

I believe we as humans can live to 150 years old…. In fact, we live in a world filled with negativity and materialistic motivations. Those of us who can conquer the belief system that society forces upon us and truly connect with their own inner powers will have the greatest chance of longevity. The first step in longevity is believing it could happen to you. The power of your belief system is beyond written words. It is what helps underdogs win against all odds. It is the backbone of most miracles. It indeed could be your first awakening towards a new journey of healthy and joyous living.

Have you ever heard of the term Money is Energy or everything is Energy? Energy comes from many places such as emotional uplift, adrenaline, Biological processes at the cellular level, but at the core it is the state of someone’s Acid-Alkaline balance. There are some individuals who seem to be genetically alkaline. You know those people that are endless chatter boxes, who seem to be able to drink 12 martinis and large portions of rich fatty foods and can still survive on 5 hours sleep. There are also even more people who are genetically acidic and seem to always be carrying around a bottle of Tums. Everything seems to bother there stomachs especially citrus drinks made with high fructose corn syrup, alcohol, coffee, large meals with red meat (you know the 28oz porterhouse). The good news for someone who tends to be more acidic is you can help the body bring up your ph level with the proper diet. The bad news for high alkaline individuals is although they may be peak performers for many years and enjoy extremely high energy, they also tend to be very prone to heart attacks at young ages since they tend to eat a very acidic diet that overloads the blood vessels around the heart.
