Indigestion

(Make sure you do your yoga today AND tomorrow, because, after all, it is 

Super Bowl Sunday!) Super Bowl Food

 

Bikram's yoga practice has changed my life! I have been practicing regularly for 6 months now and suffered from major indigestion and nothing helped for a long time, and just a week into bikram yoga has turned it around I now enjoy a really healthy stomach and digestive system.

 

Other than the improved physical condition my mental and emotional stability has drastically improved my crazy levels of high anxiety are in control now i am in control now!!

A whole lot of antibiotics and diet control since i had a weak digestive system which could lead to acidic peptic disease.

 

My digestion saw improvements in just one week!

 

Thank you Bikram Yoga. Read more...

Eli Manning

The New York Giants' biggest bruisers may have a yoga instructor to thank if they manage to bend the events at Lucas Oil Stadium in their favor Sunday.

 

Gwen Lawrence, who has been on Big Blue's payroll since 2004, has been whipping the players into shape for gameday by coaxing them into pretzel-like positions, such as downward dog, tree and frog. Read more...

WHY IS HYDRATION IMPORTANT?
YOUR MIND AND BODY WILL WORK BETTER WHEN HYDRATED!

We all know hydration is important for athletic performance, but what about daily life, health and fitness? Whether you are running a marathon, or running a middle school soccer carpool, keeping your body hydrated is key for concentration and attention to detail. Hydration can boost your life performance!

 
WHY DOES DEHYDRATION HAPPEN?
DEHYDRATION HAPPENS FOR LOTS OF REASONS. MOST PEOPLE DON'T RECOGNIZE THAT AND ONLY DRINK WHEN THEY FEEL THIRSTY.

The most common causes of dehydration are simply not drinking enough regularly and not drinking enough during or after activity. By the time you feel thirsty you are already dehydrated and are probably being affected in more ways than you realize. Training or participating in activities at altitude or in extreme weather conditions increases your fluid losses and therefore your fluid needs. Optimal hydration is key to health and high performance.

 
HOW NUUN HELPS?
ONE UP YOUR WATER WITH NUUN, AN ELECTROLYTE ENHANCED DRINK TABLET FORMULATED TO DISSOLVE IN WATER AND DESIGNED TO KEEP YOU OPTIMALLY HYDRATED WHEREVER YOU ARE.
Nuun's special formulation of electrolytes helps increase the amount of water that's absorbed into the blood stream. That means more of the water you drink is actually used to hydrate you instead of being eliminated because the electrolyte balance wasn't right. Nuun is not energy. We designed Nuun just for hydration. It's what we do best!
Sincerely,
