			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every year many people are diagnosed with Congested Heart Failure (left sided-heart failure) and need to understand the condition, symptoms and the treatment.  Congested Heart Failure affects the left side of the heart, meaning that the heart is unable to pump blood in efficient quantity to the body.  Remember the right side of the heart pumps blood to the lungs.  If you are a health care professional in direct patient care, consider a class for <a title="ACLS certification" href="http://cpr-acls-pals.com/" target="_blank">ACLS certification </a>which will enhance your knowledge about the heart and how to perform a technique that can save a person or patient’s life.  Anyone can take a CPR class and learn how to efficiently perform CPR to a person that may need intervention in the event they are unable to breathe or are in cardiac arrest (meaning the heart has stopped).<span id="more-85"></span></p>
<p>The treatment that a physician will begin may include increase in follow up appointments to monitor the treatment and monitor for any signs in weight gain or increase in swelling of the feet or ankles.  The heart will need close monitoring, so the physician will most likely order an echocardiogram (ultrasound of the heart) that will check for the function of the heart.  The physician will have the patient monitor their weight on a daily basis in order to detect that treatment may need to be more aggressive and making it more likely for the physician to intervene early.  <a title="CPR certification" href="http://cpr-acls-pals.com/cpr" target="_blank">CPR certification </a>lasts for 2 years and provides information about performing CPR on adults, children and infants.</p>
<p>Take medications as prescribed by the physician, weigh daily preferably at the same time with no clothes on, avoid foods high in sodium (check labels on the foods).  The physician will most likely refer you to see a dietician that will help guide you in the amount of sodium that will need to be removed from your diet.  Salt causes fluid retention and therefore should be avoided.  The medications that will be prescribed will help with the fluid retention and decrease the workload of the heart.  Diuretics and ACE inhibitors are the medications used.  Digoxin and Beta-blockers may also be prescribed.  It is important to keep follow up appointments with the doctor, take medications and avoid salt in the diet in order to keep the CHF under control.  If the CHF does not improve, the patient may need hospitalization to stabilize the patient and further educate the importance of compliance.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Before this post have you even heard of a <a href="http://www.luxurytravelvacations101.com/?p=572">travel club membership</a>? Or for that matter a travel club? With the current economy the way it is and the growing number of people that want to enjoy a nice vacation to a nice destination there has been a rise in the number of travel club offerings. These companies are able to negotiate on their member&#8217;s behalf deeply discounted prices to a number of desirable travel resources. Of course each club has it&#8217;s own special unique selling proposition so it will be in your own best interest to spend the time to discover what that is and how it fits into your plans.<span id="more-74"></span></p>
<p>Most of the travel clubs will offer <a href="http://www.luxurytravelvacations101.com/?page_id=14">discount travels</a> on things like luxury hotels, luxury villas, luxury condos, cruises, airfare and rental cars. And in some cases you may also get a deeply discounted rate to an all inclusive destination and access to discounted last minute travel. These are all things you should expect to get with just about any travel club membership. They will tend to separate themselves on the basis of membership cost and the number of travel destinations you have discounted access to.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Water is an extremely important resource needed by the human body for survival. We keep hydrated by drinking sufficient amount of water daily. Doctors too advice and ask people to consume about eight glasses of water daily. Drinking large amounts of water is not sufficient; rather you need to drink clean and pure water which is good for your body. It is a well known fact that <a title="water ionizer" href="http://www.betterwaterstore.com/" target="_self">water ionizers </a>convert the normal tap water into an antioxidant with a negative charge.<span id="more-57"></span></p>
<p>How do water ionizers work? When water is passed through the ionization process, the water gets a negative Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP). ORP is a measure which says how much toxins can be absorbed by water. When water has a positive ORP rating it does not have any capacity to absorb toxins. Whereas a negative ORP rating ensures that there is free space for the water to absorb harmful toxins. When we drink this water, the toxins in our body are easily absorbed and flushed out by our systems. We keep healthy and free of diseases as our body gets rid of all the waste and unwanted toxins. Ionized water is an <a title="alkaline antioxidant" href="http://www.betterwaterstore.com/water-ionizers.html" target="_self">alkaline antioxidant </a>which helps us in many ways.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Goji berries are highly nutritious fruits, found mostly in temperate zones, particularly in China, Tibet, Mongolia, and surrounding <a href="http://www.gojiberries.us">Himalayan</a> regions. These berries have several vitamins, minerals, and compounds that are now recognized as essential for human health by scientists and nutritionists. These include vitamin C, iron, selenium, beta-carotene, amino acids, and germanium.<span id="more-51"></span></p>
<p>Goji berries are also known to be one of the richest antioxidant source found naturally. In addition, they also have a special polysaccharide that is very rare. This polysaccharide is able to coax pituitary glands to increase human growth hormone. These berries also improve the immunity of humans. But to get the benefits of these fruits, they need to be orally consumed. Dried goji berries are chewable like raisins. They are a bit sour and sweet to taste, with a tangy flavor. Therefore, they can be integrated in any chocolates just like raisins and nuts. Like in case of raisins, goji berries are first dried to reduce them into chewy dried fruit form. This dried berry is then dipped into fresh creamy chocolate and frozen. These <a title="chocolate goji berries" href="http://www.gojiberries.us/darkchocolateclusters.aspx">chocolate goji berries</a> are also available in clusters. Such chocolate goji berries become effective way to eat this nutritious food, without much fuss.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the middle of remodeling your kitchen? You probably are spending thousands of  dollars and have forgotten one of the most important features- a <a title="undercounter filter" href="http://www.betterwaterstore.com" target="_self">undercounter filter</a> for your drinking water. Most of have water that is supplied by municipal water supplies that miss a lot of contaminants and removal of chlorine. Yuk! Nothing worse than bad tasting water. Imagine inviting over your friends to see your new kitchen and serving them tap water! Forget bottled water as that is very expensive and those plastic water bottles aren&#8217;t so great in our landfills.<span id="more-33"></span></p>
<p>We got the  <a title="Aquasana filtration system" href="http://www.betterwaterstore.com" target="_self">Aquasana filtration system</a>. The model we purchased is the Aquasana AQ-4501undercounter filtration system. Cost was less than $175 dollars delivered from Better Water Store in just a few days. We got the deluxe system with a designer finish faucet in Brushed Nickel to match our new finishes in the kitchen. Hook up was super simple and we had filtered water flowing within minutes. The cost of the filtered water (Underwriter Laboratories certified) is less than 9 cents a gallon! What a savings over buying bottled water at between over $1.00 to $4.00 a gallon.</p>
