Auto Control Medical Introduces MyHealth Pedometers

Auto Control Medical, a distributor of home health monitoring technology, introduces the MyHealth X08 and XL15 Series of Pedometers.

Montreal, Quebec (PRWEB) October 15, 2004

In response to the growing awareness of the importance to live a healthy active lifestyle, Auto Control Medical, a distributor of home health monitoring technology, introduces the MyHealth X08 and XL15 Series of pedometers.

The 10,000 steps phenomenon, originally invented in Japan nearly 40 years ago, is based on a person walking 10,000 steps per day to achieve and develop their fitness levels. The average person takes about 2,300 to 3,000 steps daily according to a study by the American company Novartis Nutrition. Obesity has tripled over the last 20 years and continues to rise. Most adults in North America are now overweight, and one in five is obese. How can pedometers help?

Use a pedometer to measure your steps daily. Walking 10,000 steps a day, the equivalent of 6-7 kilometers, could be the key to reducing the obesity figure.

Wearing a pedometer is an easy way to track your steps each day. Put it on when you get up in the morning and wear it until bedtime. Record your daily steps in a log or notebook. By the end of the week, you will know your average daily steps. You will be surprised how many steps you get in each day.

Accuracy and ease of use are characteristic of both models in the series. Individually, each offers its own unique features to appeal to users of all ages and lifestyles.

The X08, with its modern transparent design will appeal to a younger audience, beginning fitness enthusiasts or athletes of all types who primarily desire simplicity. With step counter, distance counter, stride length input and a 12/24 hour clock, it is perfect for any situation, such as a morning walk, cardio-workout or simply to motivate us to walk more often and lead a more active lifestyle.

The XL15, preferable to users with increased fitness demands or those on health/weight regimens, has a large EZ-view flip down screen, step counter, distance counter, calorie counter, stride length input, body weight input and a clock in 12/24 hour format. Ergonomically designed and easy to use, the XL15 can be worn during regular daily activities or a marathon.

"The MyHealth X08 and XL15 pedometers are a valued addition to our product family," said Robert Burgy, Vice-President of Auto Control Medical. "People of all ages will be able to use the MyHealth X08 and XL15 pedometers to accurately monitor their activities and achieve their fitness goals."

Free Joint Pain Relieving Health Supplement Available From Health Freedom Nutrition

Joint Pain Sufferers Can Receive a Free 30 Capsule Bottle of Glucosagen One valued at $19.95 by Just Paying $2.95 S&H

(PRWEB) December 28, 2010

Health supplement manufacturer Health Freedom Nutrition is giving away 30 capsule bottles of their breakthrough joint health supplement, Glucosagen One, to individuals who suffer from joint pain and reduced joint flexibility.

To receive the free bottle, which regularly sells for $19.95, individuals need only cover the shipping and handling costs of just $2.95. Orders for the free bottle of Glucosagen One can be processed on the company’s website at http://www. hfn-usa. com/free-glucosagen-one.

Glucosagen One, the one capsule per day joint pain reliever, has been one of Health Freedom Nutrition’s top selling supplements since its introduction in 2007. The company hopes to give away 2,000 bottles in the next 10 days in an effort to improve the lives of individuals seeking relief from joint pain and discomfort.

Dale Fowkes, CEO of Health Freedom Nutrition, says anyone suffering from minor joint aches and pains could benefit from daily use of Glucosagen One. “We hit upon a formula that works with the body to reset the immune system’s response to inflammation, which is the cause of most joint health issues,” said Fowkes.

“The result is a drastic reduction in joint pain and improved joint movement in as little as three weeks with just one capsule per day. And, with the free 30 day supply we are offering, anyone suffering from joint pain will be able to tell if Glucosagen One is right for them,” he added.

While Glucosagen One was originally marketed to older individuals who were looking for increased mobility as well as joint pain relief, the company soon found a secondary market among middle-aged people who were feeling joint aches and pains for the first time in their lives.

Explains Fowkes, “While people in their 60s and 70s with joint pain issues remain the core buyers of Glucosagen One, the product’s sales growth can really be attributed to younger individuals in their 40s and 50s who are finding relief from joint issues brought about by daily wear and tear. It is with these individuals that Glucosagen One has really sparked an interest.”

Satisfied users have had this to say about Glucosagen One:

"My wife and I started taking Glucosagen One in March of 2007. We both suffer from joint pain in our knees, shoulders, and ankles. We have been taking Glucosagen One as recommended once each morning. I can tell a huge difference. I guess you could say a 90% improvement in how my knees feel. In this short time it is a miracle how much better I feel and getting around without being in constant pain. My wife had back surgery in 1992 and stayed in pain most of the time. She can now move around better and the pain is virtually gone." Bill L. Kingsport, TN

"Glucosagen One is very easy and convenient to take. After taking it for the first month, my pain was greatly reduced. I didn't realize how much until I was without it for several days. Now, after taking it for another month, my pain is completely gone." Susan L. Torrance CA.

The Free Glucosagen One Give Away will last until January 7, 2011 or until all 2,000 bottles have been given away. Individuals who would like to receive their free bottle and are willing to pay the $2.95 S&H costs should call 800-980-8780 or visit http://www. hfn-usa. com/free-glucosagen-one.
