Welcome to the Live Better Newsletter August 2007

Vol. 8 No. 7

The year is 2007 and you would think that most of us would act as smart as we are when it comes to our diet!  We know that much of what we are putting into our bodies is bad for us.  We know that our fast food feeding frenzy is killing us.  We know that the fast-foods, packaged sandwiches, candy bars and goodies are filled with fats and chemicals.  We know that serious diseases are linked to what we are eating, and yet we continue to eat it day after day after day!  We know that these foods are giving us high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, and while we might think twice, we put it into our mouths anyway.  We know that a daily regimen filled with exercise, fruits and vegetables is critical to maintaining overall good health and preventing disease, yet we are failing to act on what we know!

Our lifestyle is creating some serious health problems, especially because of the food that we are putting into our bodies.  Some of these problems are leading to death.  Our immune systems are broken because of what we eat, and bad health in many forms is the result.  In our last newsletter we talked about long life, and how certain cultures maintain their health into their nineties, where living to over one hundred years of age is not an uncommon occurrence.  The reason they live so long, and we do not, is mainly due to what we are putting into our bodies.  Diet has been credited by many experts as the reason they live so long. Further, this observation has led researchers to focus on the health benefits of soy, because soy foods are a primary protein source in many of these cultures.

The good news is that there is hope for us as well.  Many people here in the United States are now practicing what it takes to be healthy and are living proof that it can work.  It is never too late to begin living this lifestyle of health and longevity, and it’s made easier now that high-protein soy foods are conveniently available from Genisoy.  Decide today to start eating right! 

Also in this month’s Newsletter we talk more about how you can live better by eating right, and if you’re suffering from menopausal symptoms we’ve got some helpful information on how soy can alleviate your suffering!  The Newsletter Special of the month offers up some tasty Genisoy snack bars that you shouldn’t resist!

Can Soy Alleviate Menopausal Symptoms?  You Bet!

In addition to the vast array of benefits derived from the consumption of soy products, there is a steady stream of information indicating that soy phytoestrogens have a powerful connection with the ability to alleviate menopausal discomforts. 

The symptoms of menopause can be very miserable, and in many women the discomforts of menopause can continue for many years.  These symptoms include hot flashes, insomnia, heavy sweating (especially at night, which further contributes to insomnia), headaches, mood swings, nervousness, irritability, and depression.  Although women can reduce postmenopausal discomforts by taking estrogen, the vast majority choose not to have this hormone replacement therapy.

The testimonies of how Genisoy products work to alleviate menopausal suffering keep rolling in!  Here’s one from Joanne:

I have suffered with hormone headaches for eleven years; this past year, they came twice a week.  On your recommendation, I picked up Genisoy Natural Unflavored Protein Powder and mixed it up with soy milk, fresh fruit, and a couple of ice cubes for my morning smoothie.  I have been (hormone) headache-free for over four weeks - a record!  As an added bonus, Genisoy Protein Powder fits perfectly with my eating habits (as a lifetime member of Weight Watchers).  There's a personal satisfaction/relief to know that I'm doing something effective and healthy to reduce the (not so) lovely side effects of menopause!  Interesting, too - I met with a Neurologist last week (as recommended by my OB/GYN).  At the end of the hour long examination, she also highly recommended integrating soy into my daily diet.  Hmmmmm....

Give us your testimony of how eating Genisoy has changed your life!  Just write to: contactgenisoy@genisoy.com.  Also, check out our monthly special below, and if you haven’t begun to integrate soy into your own diet, now’s your chance!

Today, the old "you are what you eat" campaign is being replaced with a much more critical one.  Book after book and expert after expert are now saying that it's not so much that "you are what you eat" as much as it is "you are being killed by what you eat!"  Too much of what we eat is toxic, and it's creating health problems not just here, but abroad.  More and more, research is showing us that these health problems are being connected to what we are eating.  The results of our poor diets eventually leads to a host of problems including obesity, heart issues, high blood pressure, cancers, depression, addictions, and a whole lot more.

Diet related diseases are a risk for every one of us.  Failure to eat right can and will weaken our immune system and cause a host of problems.  Heart disease in particular remains the number one killer in America of both men and women, and is largely brought on by what we eat.  Lifestyles that are filled with inactivity, overeating, not eating enough fruits, vegetables, and other disease-fighting soy phytochemicals is leading us down a grim road.  But we don’t have to go there! 

The primary and also simplest way to get healthy is through diet and exercise. Add to this finding ways to reduce stress and making sure you get regular medical checkups.  As part of your diet, soy is a proven way to help maintain good health.  Researchers have been investigating the effects of soy foods and soy protein on risk factors for many types of disease for several decades.  Even the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has concluded that soy protein consumption included in a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease by lowering blood cholesterol levels.  Soy protein with naturally occurring isoflavones may well help prevent certain types of cancer, osteoporosis, and alleviate menopausal symptoms. 

Living a life of health is really very simple to do.  Simple lifestyle changes can drastically reduce your chances of meeting a life-threatening disease.  Exercise, do what you know is right and don’t eat what you know isn’t good for you.  Stay away from the fast foods altogether, and instead of reaching for that cupcake or candy bar, grab a piece of fruit or delicious Genisoy protein bar!
