Many people who exercise claims that they have fewer infections when they are in good aerobic conditions ,few studies have been conducted that can substantiate or refute this claim. The bulk of the evidence indicates the moderate exercise may have beneficial effects on the immune system, whereas strenuous exercise may be accompanied by reduced immune -system activity.
Moderate exercise training results in an increase in the circulating numbers of granulocytes and lymphocytes and an increase in cytotoxic and natural killer cell acivity. On the other hand maximal exercise suppresses natural killer cells activity one to two hours after exercise. It is possible that intense physical activity induces the stress response, which in turn suppresses immune functions.
Athletes with long, difficult training schedules and intense competition have increased incident of respiratory infection. Because these athletes have lower resting salivary IgA levels compared with control subjects and that their mucosal immunoglobulins are decreased after prolonged exhaustive exercise. These levels return to normal after twenty four hours.
It is possible that the athlete who is in training with frequent bouts of exhaustive exercise may have a sustained reduction in mucosal immununity and therefore lower resistance to respiratory infection.

ALL FAT IS NOT CREATED EQUAL
There are different ways to be fat, and one way is more dangerous than the other. Obese patients can be classified into two categories. Android, a male type of adipose tissue distribution,and gynoid, a female type distribution of adipose tissue measured as the ratio of waist circumference to hip circumference. Android obesity is characterized by abdominal fat distribution or upper body obesity, where as the gynoid obesity is characterized by fat distribution in hips anad thighs. Females can have android obesity or male can have gynoid obesity.
Android obesity is associated with a number of disorders, including insulin resistance, hypertension, coronary heart disease, and stroke. Gynoid obesity is not associated with high risk for these disorders. Because android obesity is associated with increased risk for the disease, it is more important for the overweight individuals with this type of adipose distribution to reduce their fat stores.

* 2 medium carrots
* 1 large sweet potato
* 1 medium potato
* 1 medium orange, apple, pear or banana
* 8 big strawberries
* 1 watermelon wedge
* 1 large peach
Eat, Fish, beans, poultry and nuts provide your kids with the necessary protein for brain and body development. You can find this in meat and white meat, various types of beans such as kidney, chickpeas, lentils etc. It is also found in nuts such as walnuts, pecans, almond s and others.
