You can find out what are the percentages of THC in the blood, figures that can influence a test drug. Because nowadays, you have a good chance of doing such a test (starting from a routine check up to a new job). I have found that the test can detect THC in the blood after a period of 1 to 10 days. This period depends on the metabolism of each. Virtually a person with accelerated metabolism will soon get rid of THC from the blood. Thus, someone with low metabolism will be able to detect THC in the blood and after 9 days. Another variable is the fat. One can assimilate the THC and save it for longer. Like nicotine, it “blends” with the fat as opposed to other substances that remains “out”. According to the studies, over-weight people cannot be detected if they have THC in the blood after 2-3 days, being virtually hidden (assimilated) in body fat. But that’s not a test drug!

How do you accelerate your metabolism to eliminate THC from the blood?

Acceleration of metabolism can be done by consuming many calories. Basically, you eat many products that contain as many calories as possible. Most people will ask, “How long does the THC come out of the blood?” The answer is simple: it depends how fast your metabolism is accelerated and how much calories you consume! If you want to stop THC in the blood, you need to eat a lot of calories, which are: nuts, almonds, peanuts. Of course, everything that is made of cereals has many calories (even a bowl of cereal expanded with milk). Black chocolate (bitter) and milk chocolate, have over 500 kcal / 100g. Of the high-calorie foods I mention pork (bacon, fat, meat): salami, ham and bacon. The highest calorie content per 100g is olive oil.  [Read more…]

CBD hemp oil is a revolutionary product extracted from, of course, CBD. CBD, namely cannabidiol is one of the most controversial products in existence today, managing most of its criticism from the older less open-minded generation. The upcoming younger generation has unlike them given it wide acceptance all over with awareness of its natural ability to treat numerous chronic diseases reaching wide masses in turn, driving its business through the roof. The demand for CBD and CBD products has skyrocketed over the past few years.

While it is apparent the world is making turns in the right direction, the legality of CBD is still a far way off from being clear owing to different laws that are constantly changing across different states and also on federal levels. Due to this reason many people are left wondering if Cannabinol (CBD) is helpful and legal?

There is one main reason for its questionable legality and that is if it is derived from hemp or from marijuana. [Read more…]

Are you blaming recent weight gain on age-related changes in your metabolism? You might be surprised to learn exactly how age affects metabolism and what you can expect as you get older. Don’t miss this quick guide with helpful tips on naturally (and safely) boosting your metabolism too!

What is Metabolism?

At its core, metabolism is the extremely complex biological process that occurs in your body by which the things you eat and drink are broken down and converted into energy. Calories from food and drink are combined with oxygen and transported to cells to give them the fuel they need to complete important functions and allow you to do pretty much anything.

Your basal metabolic rate is the minimum number of calories your body requires to carry out all the important functions that keep you alive and well including breathing, altering hormone levels, repairing tissue, circulating blood, and growing cells. Your sex, age, size, body composition, physical activity levels, and digestion are all factors that influence how many calories you effectively burn every day.

The speed of your overall metabolism is determined by:

• The rate at which your body burns calories while you are asleep or at rest

• Thermogenesis, or thermic effect of food, which is the number of calories you burn simply in digesting and storing food

• NEAT (Non-exercise activity thermogenesis), or the number of calories you burn outside of exercise doing everyday things like walking from room to room

• Physical exercise

Although the number of people diagnosed with nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung disease grows every year, particularly among those 65 years and older, many people who have this disease may not know it. That’s because the symptoms of NTM lung disease are very similar to the symptoms of other lung conditions, like bronchiectasis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) and asthma. So similar, in fact, that diagnosis of NTM lung disease is often delayed, and people can have the condition for months, even years, without knowing it.

People can develop NTM lung disease by breathing the bacteria in. NTM bacteria can be found in tap water, showerheads, steam from tubs and soil from parks, gardens and the environment. Everyone comes in contact with the bacteria in their daily lives, but not everyone will get NTM lung disease. Most people do not become infected because their lungs are healthy and can clear the NTM bacteria.

However, those who have existing lung conditions are at greater risk for the disease. The damage from these conditions can make it difficult to clear NTM bacteria from their airways. Over time, symptoms can get worse, and in some cases the disease can cause severe, even permanent damage to the lungs. [Read more…]

The five Tibetan Rites are a sequence of movements that claim to reverse the ageing process when performed daily. Every movement performed as part of the routine stimulates a certain energy centre or hormonal system and revitalizes some organs for a complete recharging, revitalizing experience for the whole body. If you are in need of a trusted source when it comes to healthy ageing and products for your physical, mental and general health, Reviewy will tell you more.

This series of exercises or movements are known as “The fountain of youth” as it claims to not only reverse the ageing process, but also balance the energy centers and heal the body in just a few minutes a day. The only difference between old age and youth, according to Tibetan lamas, are the spin rate of the body’s seven energy centers. This routine stimulates all seven energy centers to rapidly spin at the same rate.

The Tibetan lamas are of the opinion that when any of the energy centers are blocked, the regular spin rate will slow down, vital life energy will not be able to circulate and so illness and ageing will set in. The rites are rejuvenating as the ageing process is halted by the activation and unblocking of the spinning energy centers. It also corrects any hormonal imbalances which hold the key to wellbeing, vitality and lasting youth. Recent medical studies have also shown that the ageing process is indeed regulated by hormones.

There are a lot of myths circulating out there about seniors and exercise. Some people say seniors shouldn’t be exercising at all, while others say that they should only do gentle forms of exercise like yoga.

It’s time to set the record straight and separate fact from fiction. Listed below are five of the biggest senior fitness myths that you need to stop believing today.

1. It’s Too Late to Start

Some people mistakenly believe that, after a certain age, it’s too late for them to start exercising. Some people may have even been told that they should avoid exercise because the risk of injury is too great.

In reality, the risk of injury is like greater among sedentary people than it among active individuals. Think about it — who’s going to be able to bounce back quicker after experiencing a fall or a bout of the flu? Someone who’s been exercising regularly, or someone who hasn’t?

While it’s true that, if you haven’t exercised in decades, you shouldn’t jump right into a Crossfit class, there’s no reason for you to avoid working out altogether.    [Read more…]
