Can Ginger Reduce Soreness? What About MaryAnn?

00:00 /

Ginger is a natural anti-inflammatory that has been shown to reduce your soreness after you exercise or workout. A recent study suggested that eating actual ginger rather than taking a ginger supplement worked best. And you have to eat about 2 grams a day for several days in order to get the best results. The Fat Guy thinks that finding MaryAnn and asking her for a couple of Advil is the way to go. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.

Henry Wishchusen: Becoming an Independent Inventor

00:00 /

Commercializing inventions take hardwork time and money. It is especially difficult to attempt to to develop a product and take it to market when you are working from 8:30 to 5. One strategy is to become self-employed. That is exactly what Henry Wischusen chose to do 4 years ago so that he could be a full time inventor or better said Developer/Commercializer

Henry is a serial inventor and spent 27 years working for Rock-Tenn Co. a leading packaging and display company. Henry was awarded over 30 patents while at Rock-Tenn. For the last 4 years he has managed his own company Integrated Development “A package and product development company”.

Angela Presley is a second time guest on Eugeria! Radio in Dallas. Today, Angela brought Fundraising Coordinator Victoria Williams with her to promote the largest MuscleWalk in the nation. Angela started her careers with the Muscular Dystrophy Association of Greater Dallas. A Dallas native, Angela went off to school in Lubbock at Texas Tech, and came back. Victoria is also a Dallas native, and went to a foreign country for school (Oklahoma)! Angela is the Healthcare Services Coordinator, working with families primarily in a social work capacity. The Muscular Dystrophy Association is a national voluntary health agency dedicated to conquering more than 40 muscle diseases that affect a million Americans of all ages. MDA combats neuromuscular diseases through programs of worldwide research, comprehensive medical and community services, and far-reaching professional and public health education. On March 5, the MDA will be holding their annual MuscleWalk at Cowboy Stadium. Though you won’t see the Cowboys in the Superbowl, you might see some celebrities in the stadium at the MuscleWalk! It will be a great opportunity for families impacted by Muscular Dystrophy, ALS, Parkinsons and other neuromuscular diseases to interact with each other, and witness the heroic effort to raise money for such a worthy cause! To contact the Dallas Chapter of the MDA, call them at (972) 480-0011, or visit the national website at www.mda.org. Again, mark your calendars for March 5, 2011 for the annual MuscleWalk at Cowboy Stadium!

Patti Fehlig is from a small town in Missouri. A really small town. In fact, she tells us that one of her high school teachers walked down the hall where her mother was teaching first grade to tell her mother that her daughter was holding hands with a boy in class (we’re not sure if she married him or not)! Being a somewhat rebellious child, Patti decided not to follow in her parents’ footsteps as an educator. She attended Central Missouri State College (now University of Central Missouri) to get her Bachelors Degree in Social Work. She never wavered from her intent, later receiving a Masters in Social Work from the University of Georgia. Having worked as a social worker for a home health company early on (StaffBuilders), and then as an executive director for two different assisted living communities, she finally found her home working in hospice. Two years ago, Patti joined Longleaf Hospice to work with her friend Carla Pfirman. Today, Patti is the Community Relations Coordinator for Longleaf, and she loves her job. She tells us that Longleaf Hospice’s focus is on provided high quality, individualized care. To contact Patti or find out more information about Longleaf Hospice, call (770) 939-9179, or visit them on the web at www.longleafhospice.com.

Run Ben Davis Run – Inspirational Weight Loss Success Story From Ben Does Life

00:00 /

Ben Davis has a remarkable weight loss success story. Ben’s video with his Coldplay soundtrack has been viewed over 1 million times. It is hard to watch and not think about signing up for a race. On Christmas day 2008 Ben was depressed and weighed 360 pounds. On that day he made a promise to his grandmother to lose weight and get his life together. In two years he has lost 120 pounds and has run marathons and finished an Ironman Triathlon.

Ben started to run – it was extremely difficult at first but he perservered with the help of his brother. Together they signed up for a 5k and started training. Ben started to lose a lot of weight pretty fast – sometimes 8-15 pounds a week at first. After the initial success of his first 5k Ben started to train for more and more challenging races. Eventually he snuck into the Boston Marathon and completed the race as a bandit. He is going to be featured in Runners World magazine in April.

Here are some of Ben’s Weight Loss tips

Find an activity you love
Join a group that meets a couple of times a week to get into a routine
Change your diet – replace fast food with grilled lean meat and fruit and vegetables
Blog to keep yourself accountable and supported during difficult times
Use BodyGlide to prevent chafing

You can watch the video and read about his inspirational story on his blog www.bendoeslife.com
