I would not make a poem or write a piece that justifies the weighing of a man's person against a woman's, the differences are clear and should not be compared against one another.      It is an emoral and wrong thing to do, in fact that should not even be given notice; it should be snuffed out and killed at first sight it should not be given air to breath and multiply in the minds of good people. 

We should be very responsable enough to make the distingtion of diference, but not comparison,  each sex should stand tall on its own while we state the living virtures within them and not popetuate war between them.     So I now stand and give an account of the raw potential and beauty and rights of the woman.     The one half of that pair that make it even posible to guide the youth of this nation and the youth of many others people nations around the world.       The woman is part of the team that was made to nuture children to find their way and fulfill the potential inside of them and become the leaders of tomorrow.

“Woman” do not let the ugliness of this world tarnish your brilliance or make a mockery of the richness within you!

You are not the absence of color you define what it is, and have placed your name on it in many colors and shades,

Be now defined, but not in teaching mediocrity but the fullness of who you really are, queens to be lifted up and placed on the shoulders of Good men,

Not an enigma but a living fact! that should be placed on the lips of mankind and in their hearts.

You are a precious star on earth, placed hear because spiritually, you desired to be here, and God made it possible!

And men should be aware that your power has no end, but you use it with purpose and with responsibility, never to abuse.

I applaud you because I see your potential and know who you are, I am your sons and daughters, I am in love with you; the real “You”!

And I will always be bound to you, I feed richly from your bosoms, (your heart’s lair) so feed me well woman (wisdom).

I have much years to go and miles to walk, and only you can truly love me the way I need to be loved and nurtured for I am your.

Battling High Blood Pressure (one man's journey) Part # 4

Remember your goal and shoot for it.

I would like to point out; that when taking your journey to proper health, you have to make radical decisions based on you and how you think it will affect you and how it will play out in your life not anyone else’s, just yours! (Meaning that taking this step in your life, is your life change and even though it may affect others,  Are you ready for it and it is necessary to have people who are going to be supportive to your cause). Some really important questions are who can I trust to help you fulfill your journey quest to good health? And can you find a reliable source for good solid information on diet and exercise?  So now that is said please step up to the plate and take your swing.   It is extremely helpful to find a partner for this journey (best person to get would be someone inside of your house-hold, and if not them someone who is facing the same thing as you) If they are facing the same thing as you both already have a bond and you will find that the desire to see each other through will be the aspect that binds you both together.           Off you go – Now here are some foods that will help to lower your Cholesterol level.            Be very careful as always, safety should be first and last.

Cholesterol: Top 5 foods to lower your numbers

Diet can play an important role in lowering your cholesterol. Here are five foods that can lower your cholesterol and protect your heart.

By Mayo Clinic staff

Can a bowl of oatmeal help lower your cholesterol? How about a handful of walnuts or even a baked potato topped with some heart-healthy margarine? A few simple tweaks to your diet — like these — may be enough to lower your cholesterol to a healthy level and help you stay off medications.

1. Oatmeal, oat bran and high-fiber foods

Oatmeal contains soluble fiber, which reduces your low-density lipoprotein (LDL), the "bad" cholesterol. Soluble fiber is also found in such foods as kidney beans, apples, pears, barley and prunes.

Soluble fiber can reduce the absorption of cholesterol into your bloodstream. Five to 10 grams or more of soluble fiber a day decreases your total and LDL cholesterol. Eating 1 1/2 cups of cooked oatmeal provides 6 grams of fiber. If you add fruit, such as bananas, you'll add about 4 more grams of fiber. To mix it up a little, try steel-cut oatmeal or cold cereal made with oatmeal or oat bran.

2. Fish and omega-3 fatty acids

Eating fatty fish can be heart-healthy because of its high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, which can reduce your blood pressure and risk of developing blood clots. In people who have already had heart attacks, fish oil — or omega-3 fatty acids — reduces the risk of sudden death.

Doctors recommend eating at least two servings of fish a week. The highest levels of omega-3 fatty acids are in:

·                                 Mackerel

·                                 Lake trout

·                                 Herring

·                                 Sardines

·                                 Albacore tuna

·                                 Salmon

·                                 Halibut

You should bake or grill the fish to avoid adding unhealthy fats. If you don't like fish, you can also get small amounts of omega-3 fatty acids from foods like ground flaxseed or canola oil.

You can take an omega-3 or fish oil supplement to get some of the benefits, but you won't get other nutrients in fish, like selenium. If you decide to take a supplement, just remember to watch your diet and eat lean meat or vegetables in place of fish.

3. Walnuts, almonds and other nuts

Walnuts, almonds and other nuts can reduce blood cholesterol. Rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, walnuts also help keep blood vessels healthy.

According to the Food and Drug Administration, eating about a handful (1.5 ounces, or 42.5 grams) a day of most nuts, such as almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts, pecans, some pine nuts, pistachio nuts and walnuts, may reduce your risk of heart disease. Just make sure the nuts you eat aren't salted or coated with sugar.

All nuts are high in calories, so a handful will do. To avoid eating too many nuts and gaining weight, replace foods high in saturated fat with nuts. For example, instead of using cheese, meat or croutons in your salad, add a handful of walnuts or almonds.

Cholesterol: Top 5 foods to lower your numbers

4. Olive oil

Olive oil contains a potent mix of antioxidants that can lower your "bad" (LDL) cholesterol but leave your "good" (HDL) cholesterol untouched.

The Food and Drug Administration recommends using about 2 tablespoons (23 grams) of olive oil a day in place of other fats in your diet to get its heart-healthy benefits. To add olive oil to your diet, you can saute vegetables in it, add it to a marinade, or mix it with vinegar as a salad dressing. You can also use olive oil as a substitute for butter when basting meat or as a dip for bread. Olive oil is high in calories, so don't eat more than the recommended amount.

The cholesterol-lowering effects of olive oil are even greater if you choose extra-virgin olive oil, meaning the oil is less processed and contains more heart-healthy antioxidants. But keep in mind that "light" olive oils are usually more processed than extra-virgin or virgin olive oils and are lighter in color, not fat or calories.

5. Foods with added plant sterols or stanols

Foods are now available that have been fortified with sterols or stanols — substances found in plants that help block the absorption of cholesterol.

Margarines, orange juice and yogurt drinks with added plant sterols can help reduce LDL cholesterol by more than 10 percent. The amount of daily plant sterols needed for results is at least 2 grams — which equals about two 8-ounce (237-milliliter) servings of plant sterol-fortified orange juice a day.

Plant sterols or stanols in fortified foods don't appear to affect levels of triglycerides or of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), the "good" cholesterol.

Other changes to your diet

For any of these foods to provide their benefit, you need to make other changes to your diet and lifestyle.

Cut back on the cholesterol and total fat — especially saturated and trans fats — that you eat. Saturated fats, like those in meat, full-fat dairy products and some oils, raise your total cholesterol. Trans fats, which are sometimes found in margarines and store-bought cookies, crackers and cakes, are particularly bad for your cholesterol levels. Trans fats raise low-density lipoprotein (LDL), the "bad" cholesterol, and lower high-density lipoprotein (HDL), the "good" cholesterol.

There is more I hope to have placed all the pieces in place and have you on your way to good health soon, I will write up all the workout and exercise eliments before too long and we will be doing opur thing together.    The way I see it High Blood Pressure does not have a chance.   Love you people and I certainly love myself and will not go out with out purpose and a good fight.

By Guy T Woods Sr  and the good help of the Mayo Clinic who actually wrote this piece.

Battling High Blood Pressure (one man's journey) Part 3

This is Part # 3 with your BMI Charts and other things that will give you some sort of a start : I promise that I will be more forth coming with the program for weight loss and proper nutrition with the next few days. But please remember that this program is an aggressive approach to High Blood Pressure control and possible elimination.

4.      It is important to know and maintain a good BMI or body mass index; Body mass index: A key index for relating a person's body weight to their height. The body mass index (BMI) is a person's weight in kilograms (kg) divided by their height in meters (m) squared.   The best BMI to maintain is should be between   18.5 - 24.9.     The rule of thumb according to WebMD.     Here is a chart for you to take a look at and it may give you some prospective and you look for your particular BMI.

A person with a BMI of 25-29.9 is considered to be overweight. A BMI over 30 is considered obese. A BMI of 40 or above indicates that a person is morbidly obese. This can increases a person's risk of death from any cause by 50% to 150%.

5.      One more thing to remember while you are on this journey to good health and fighting the disease of High Blood Pressure, small things like exercise or good activity is paramount for proper blood circulation and oxygen flow. This helps to make proper brain function and helps to defuse stress which brings us to the next point.

6.      It is absolutely necessary to grab a hold of the stress in your life one way is to get the proper amount of sleep for great digestion and proper re-growth for cell replacement.    Growth hormones kick in when we are in deep sleep.

So grabbing on to the right amount of sleep is a must in getting a hold of your health, when it comes to High Blood Pressure.

Please note that there is more to this piece as the days and weeks as I continue with this battle.           I will be giving you a blow by blow update; of my struggles and my wins as I conquer the battle with High Blood Pressure and I will be giving some before and after pictures that will also show you the progress reports.   This is something that I believe that will help not only me but others like me who may have questions and don’t know how to formulate them so that they can be asked and get the answers for you.   There will be charts and also alternatives to my method and reasons why I chose one way over another, plus the effects that one can expect from diet, exercise, and more.

 PLEASE NOTE!

Now although most of this information you may be able to find on most internet sights the combination and approach is one that I am designing and using for me in the tackling of my own problem and should be look at with caution, and checked out with a physician or primary care Doctor; this maybe too aggressive of an approach for some people.

So till next time here this is Guy T Woods SR signing out Lots of love and happiness and good health.

We need to talk

Take a good look at this and when you are done get activated, You are now called to duty to save our youth by any means necessary. So if you think that African American youth are not your responsibility then think again.   Don't be foolish we all live in the same village people and we all have an affect on one another, I love you too people.
