Don't Let Your Body Be A Bummer
Summer; 5 Tips To Detoxify
As summer winds down, some people who ditched their New Year's weight-loss resolu-
tions may re-dedicate themselves to looking good.
Even more important, though, is what we put in our bodies. What we eat and drink not only
impacts how we look, but how we feel.
And to properly set the tone for the inner body and good overall health, it's vital to get the
bad stuff- toxins - out, and keep them out, says Dr. Suhyun An (www.drsuhyunan.com),
an expert on regenerative medicine and co-author of Demystifying Stem Cells: A Real-Life
Approach To Regenerative Medicine.
"People may want to look good, but being truly healthy on the inside is a year-round com-
mitment, Dr. An says. "And you need to start by detoxifying the body.
"Toxins can severely affect every part of the body. They're in tons of every-day products.
Being aware of them and avoiding them are essential to good health." Dr. An provides five tips for cleaning out the toxins in your body:
Reduce the toxins you're taking in. The first step to cleaning out toxins in your body is to
cut back - or completely eliminate - things you put into your body that contain them. "When
something is hard for the body to digest, it can slow down your metabolism and cause toxins
to accumulate in your body," Dr. An says. "Avoid these groups: red meat, gluten, refined sug-
ar, processed food, alcohol, and caffeine."
Be careful with household products. Household cleaners, soaps, and beauty products all can
contain harmful toxins that are absorbed through the skin. "Choose these products carefully,"
Dr. An says, "and always make sure you know what's in them. There are many great natural
cleaners and products that can help reduce the toxins your skin and body are exposed to."
Drink plenty of water. "Water has a multitude of benefits for your body, skin, and organs,"
she says. "Drinking enough water is extremely important in getting rid of toxins in the body.
It helps boost metabolism and can literally ush out the harmful materials that have built up
in your body."
Add plenty of dietary fiber and antioxidants to your diet. Eating foods with plenty of fiber,
such as organic fruits, vegetables and whole grains, will help your body move the toxins out.
"Antioxidants help to fight free radicals and help to further remove harmful materials," Dr.
An says.
Sweat it out. Sweating is a very effective way for the body to get rid of toxins. "Achieving
this through exercise also keeps your organs and systems working properly, which plays a
key role in releasing toxins," Dr. An says. "Aside from exercising, hopping into a sauna or
hot bath can help, too."
"Removing toxins is key to living a healthy life," Dr. An says. "Just like many of us do in
our homes by procrastinating and getting sloppy, our body stores junk. Get rid of it once and
for all."

FCC robocall ruling offers hope; in the
meantime, just hang up on dodgy
callers, says AMAC
Report shows 5 million seniors lose $27.4 a year to phone scammers
Seniors may get robocall relief if a new Federal Communications Commission [FCC] rul-
ing prompts phone companies to implement technologies that automatically block them. Dan
Weber, an advocate for older Americans, says the ruling is a step in the right direction.
115a president of the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC] reports that "while
it is stiil arly days, it appears the major phone service providers are ready to cooperate. It was
good news when Verizon was quick to 'welcome' the ruling."
Verizon issued a statement hours after the FCC announced its decision. In it, the company
stated that it is "putting robocallers on notice. We've got their number and we're taking big
steps to stop them from doing what they're doing."
Meanwhile, Apple has announced a new software update will be available in the fall that
can automatically block unwanted spam callers.
Weber says, however, that he is taking a wait and see attitude regarding these latest efforts
to rein in phone scammers. "It's a lucrative crime and the perpetrators are tech savvy enough
to find new ways to prey on the elderly."
He cites an article on the FCC ruling published by Politico, which noted that: "experts
warn that callers slinging bogus tax bills and insurance schemes might still find a way to get
through. Calls originating from overseas could present a technical challenge. And the mea-
sures are voluntary: phone companies won't be required to take advantage of the call-block-
ing systems that the FCC is encouraging and could charge consumers fees for using them."
Tech journalist and privacy advocate Paul Bischoff recently prepared an elder fraud analy-
sis of phone scams targeting seniors for the technology research firm, CompariTech. The Bis-
choff report provides an eye-opening state-by-state assessment of elder fraud. He told AMAC
that the FCC ruling to stop unwanted robocalls "is a step in the right direction but ultimately
might not have the desired impact for consumers."
The report revealed that seniors are primary targets for fraudsters accounting for 38% of
scares and that there are an estimated 5 million cases of elder fraud annually resulting in $27.4
billion in losses.
"We are hopeful that the new focus on protecting the elderly from phone scammers will
have a positive effect going forward. In the meantime, just hang up if a caller starts asking for
personal information or makes threats. Don't take their word for it if they say they are calling
on official business. No official will ever ask for you to reveal account numbers, Social Secu-
rity numbers, Medicare id's over the phone."
Heavens above!
Will Pope Francis become the first Pontiff in space? It's not likely, says the Association of
Mature American Citizens [AMAC], but he would be "well suited" if he so decides [forgive
the pun]. Five astronauts, three Americans, an Italian and a Russian, recently presented the
Pope with his very own blue International Space Station flight suit. They also provided him
with a white skullcap embroidered with his name, the Vatican flag and the official NASA
logo.
New For The Well-Dressed Golfer
Attention all you golf aficionados, don't let the grass grow under your feet! The Associ-
ation of Mature American Citizens [AMAC] reports that Nike will,soon introduce for sale
a new take on golf shoes, golf sneakers featuring what the shoe maker calls, "golf-ready
traction." And, to give them a bit of panache they have fairway-like uppers made from an
AstroTurf-like material. The company says when they hit the stores, they'll cost a mere $140
a pair.

Why am I
complaining?
Submitted by Gloria Kohli
My cross is not to heavy,
My Road is not to rough
because God walks beside
me, and to know this is
enough And though I
get so lonely I know I am not
alone. For the Lord God is
my father and He loves me as
His own So, though I'm
tired and weary and I wish my
race were run, God will only
terminate it When my work
on earth is done So, let
me stop complaining about
my "Load of Care". For God
will always lighten it when it
gets too much to bear And
if he does not ease my load,
He will give me strength to
bear it. For God in love and
mercy is always near to share
it. when thou passest through
the waters, I will be with
thee; and through the rivers,
they shall not over ow thee:
when thou walkest through
the fire, though shall not be
burned Isaiah 43:2
