Dec 14 sick of hearing web 2.0

I’m totally turned off by the phrase ‘web 2.0′. It’s an over-used, over-hyped, catch-all term that really needs to be retired into oblivion. It’s the new ’synergy’. Web 2.0 has bubbled way beyond a description for a user friendly, interactive interface. Why?

Dec 4 tips for keeping a healthy immune system

Tips from a recent Men’s Health article:

  • Consume enough calories - it takes calories to form antibodies to fend of germs. If you’re consuming the right amount calories, your body weight shouldn’t move more than 1-2 lbs per week.
  • Make sure you’re getting enough rest - insufficient sleep depresses the immune system. Avoid excessive caffeine.
  • Take 5-15 grams of L-Glutamine (they recommended GNC Pro Performance) after a workout - good for your white blood cells.
  • Make sure you’re not exercising too much and giving your body time to repair itself.
  • Drink lots of water
  • Get a flu shot, especially if you have respitratory problems, heart problems or asthma.
