Achieving Small Success in Fitness
A few years back at work a group of employees got infected by the running bug. Apparently there was a big 5K race coming up and they wanted to see if everyone from work would get involved and run the race. Now let me explain a few things.
First of all, I was a the time in good shape from a muscular stand point at 5’11 235 pounds, but nothing about me said “run”. At that point I not run more than twenty yards at a time in a long time. I was not a runner. I did not enjoy it and I did not think by body could handle it, certainly not 3.1 miles which is approximately the distance of a 5K run.

Niacin and ADHD – a Guideline for Parents
Is Niacin and ADHD a realistic possibility? Naicin is just one of the many essential human nutrients that we need to keep our bodies going. It is also called Vitamin B3 and belongs to the Vitamin B complex and as such plays a key role in daily nutrition.
Recently the Alternative Medicine Review published a study on vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients and found that these were as effective as ADHD meds in alleviating ADHD symptoms such as restlessness and hyperactivity. Niacin was one of the elements in the cocktail of supplements but to say that Niacin and ADHD are the solution for ADHD is a gross exaggeration.
