| Manufacturers raise the price of carbon fiber | | 2008-08-06 05:03:00 | | If you were looking at carbon fiber as the magical lightweight solution to the parallel automotive woes of low power-to-weight ratios and high fuel consumption, we have some potentially disappointing news for you. Two of the world's largest suppliers of carbon fiber have announced that they are raising their prices. And not by a little, either, with the going rate for the high-tech material rising by 10 to 30 percent in one shot.The simultaneous announcement from Toray Industries Inc. (the #1 supplier of carbon fiber) and Mitsubishi Rayon Co. (the third largest) marks the first time both companies have universally raised their prices at the same time. The development would border on price-fixing if not for the fact that the second biggest carbon fiber manufacturer, Teijin Ltd., didn't participate. However Teijin is expected to announce its own price hike sometime this week, as well.We all expected prices to drop as use of the exotic material became more commonplace in automotive, aeros... | | By: Car News | | |

| The Secret Life Of A High Fiber Foods Addict | | 2008-06-23 22:55:01 | | It begins with the unexplained longer hours at the grocery store. You peruse every nutritional label for the fiber count. There is a sense of smugness as you reach for one loaf after another of high-fiber whole-wheat bread so you can check which one has the highest gram count of dietary fiber. The clerks suspiciously glance your way as you inadvertently rearrange the stock on the shelves. There is an irresistible impulse to be the shopper who "knows".You openly recite the top ten high fiber foods and their subsequent fiber count while stalking the produce section.Ready or not.Fiber count for 1/2 cup servings:Blackberries, Raspberries, Strawberries : 4-5 gramsBroccoli: 4-5 gramsPeas: 7-9 gramsSweet Corn: 5 gramsMedium Apple: 4 gramsMedium Pear: 4 gramsMedium Idaho Potato: 4-5 grams3 Dried Figs: 10 gramsBeans: 6-10 gramsGreens: 4-6 gramsThe daily minimum requirement for reaching a high fiber standard is 25-30 grams.

| Training Muscle Fiber Types | | 2008-04-20 18:56:47 | | Copyright 2006 Raymond BurtonRep ranges are a funny thing. Lots of people talk about doing this many reps for this many sets but really have no idea why they are doing that particular number or the effect it will have on their bodies.Generally, lower repetitions like 3-8 are most productive for creating absolute strength. Repetitions in the medium range like 10-20 produce anaerobic strength endurance. The higher rep ranges between 20-40 produce aerobic strength endurance.The reason for such varied ranges even within a category of rep range is because people will take varying amounts of time to complete the rep. We know that it is not the actual number of reps but the time that the muscle is under tension that really causes the adaptative response. So if you do 4 reps that take 6 seconds each and I do 6 reps that take 4 seconds each, we have both worked in the 3-8 range and caused that adaptation response that would be caused by putting a muscle under 24 seconds of tension.Now on to fib... | | By: tips n trick diets success | | |

Fiber achieves this satisfaction and allows this lovely state of mind to to be maintained longer. Junkfood is always used as an escape goat and when it's not the crap, it's not enough exercise. Whilst these contribue, lack of nutrition realistically is more likely a deeper reason for an epidemic of obesity and an over-weight society. An excellent example is fiber, we require 25 grams per day as per our recommended dietary intake. This is anything but true for the vast majority of the western world, consuming closer to 10-15 grams per day. Could doubling your intake of fiber be the enigma of weight loss? Maybe.

| Dietary Therapy: High Fiber Diets | | 2007-06-18 15:26:00 | | Can high-fiber diets really do all they claim to do? Studies have looked at the relationship between high-fiber diets and many diseases, including colon cancer, coronary heart disease and diabetes.Proven benefits of a high-fiber diet include prevention and treatment of constipation, hemorrhoids and diverticulosis. In addition, certain types of fiber help decrease blood cholesterol levels.Dietary fiber comes from the portion of plants that is not digested by enzymes in the intestinal tract. Part of it, however, may be metabolized by bacteria in the lower gut. Different types of plants have varying amounts and kinds of fiber, including pectin, gum, mucilage, cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin.Pectin and gum are water-soluble fibers found inside plant cells. They slow the passage of food through the intestines but do nothing to increase fecal bulk. Beans, oat bran, fruit and vegetables contain soluble fiber.In contrast, fibers in cell walls are water insoluble. These include cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. Such fibers increase fecal bulk and speed up the passage of food through the digestive tract.Wheat bran and whole grains contain the most insoluble fiber, but vegetables and beans also are good sources.Sometimes there is confusion as to the difference between crude fiber and dietary fiber. Both are determined by a laboratory analysis, but crude fiber is only one-seventh to one-half of total dietary fiber.Insoluble fiber binds water, making stools softer and bulkier. Therefore, fiber, especially that found in whole grain products, is helpful in the treatment and prevention of constipation, hemorrhoids and diverticulosis.Diverticula are pouches of the intestinal wall that can become inflamed and painful.It is now known that a high-fiber diet gives better results once the inflammation has subsided.Some types of fiber, however, appear to have a greater effect than others. The fiber found in rolled oats is more effective in lowering blood cholesterol levels than the... | | By: Healthy Diets | | |
