Galaxy: 54-46 to Coalition; Nielsen on preferred Labor leader
How to lose weight safely 
Comments Off on Galaxy: 54-46 to Coalition; Nielsen on preferred Labor leader
GhostWhoVotes reports that Galaxy and Nielsen have dipped toes into the murky polling waters, the former with a complete set of results and the latter with numbers on preferred Labor leader. Galaxy’s poll was conducted yesterday and today, and the voting intention figures are essentially unchanged on the previous poll four weeks ago: the Coalition two-party preferred lead is unchanged at 54-46, from primary votes of 34 per cent for Labor (unchanged), 47 per cent for the Coalition (down one) and 12 per cent for the Greens (unchanged). Interestingly, a question on voting intention if Kevin Rudd were Labor leader has produced far less dramatic results than when Nielsen conducted a similar exercise last September. The Coalition lead would narrow to 51-49, a three-point improvement in Labor’s position rather than the 10-point improvement in Nielsen.
On preferred Labor leader, Nielsen has it at 58-34 in Rudd’s favour (it was 57-35 at the poll a fortnight ago) compared with 52-26 from Galaxy (52-30 a month ago), suggesting the two were doing different things with respect to allocating respondents to the undecided category. Galaxy’s result points to a dramatic swing in favour of Rudd among Labor supporters, from 49-48 in Gillard’s favour a month ago to 53-39 in Rudd’s favour now. That the shift among all voters is less dramatic presumably suggests that support for Rudd among Coalition supporters has dropped.
The Galaxy poll also finds that 57 per cent believe the independents should force an early election if Rudd becomes leader, but it is not clear how many would prefer that in any case. Full tables from Galaxy here.

Diet drinks linked to risk of heart attacks, strokes
Diet Comments Off on Diet drinks linked to risk of heart attacks, strokes
SALT LAKE CITY -- More bad news has recently emerged for soda drinkers who favor zero-calorie beverages. Diet drinks may not be the health solution that they were originally celebrated to be.
A new study found a 43 percent greater risk of stroke or heart attack among people who drank a can of diet soda a day compared to people who didn't drink any. Although diet sodas have less sugar than the regular sodas, diet drinks may have some equally unhealthy side effects.
A new study found a 43 percent greater risk of stroke or heart attack for people who drank a can of diet soda a day compared to people who didn't drink any.
The study conducted by the University of Miami and Columbia University followed more than 2500 people over a 10 year period. Of these people, 591 men and women had a heart attack, stroke or died of cardiovascular causes - including 31 percent of the 163 people who drank a diet soda daily at the start of the study.
Researchers say they found a potential association, but haven't pinpointed the exact cause yet. Research in rats shows that artificial sweeteners may potentially increase overall food intake, as well as weight.
However, people that drink diet soda tend to have more unhealthy lifestyles, and so the study can't specifically be linked to diet soda as a cause.

Net Savings Link Announces Launch of Fitness Category
Fitness Comments Off on Net Savings Link Announces Launch of Fitness Category
CLEARWATER, FL--(Marketwire -02/24/12)- Net Savings Link, Inc. (OTC.BB: NSAV.OB - News), a company in the business of continually providing the mass consumer market with more choices of high quality discount deals and savings that enable individuals and families to recapture a significant amount of their net disposable income every year, announced today the addition of their Fitness Category.
The Fitness Category is designed to provide a "one stop" comprehensive fitness program that can be completely personalized, is delivered by professional trainers, and can be accessed in the home, on line, at any time. The program will enable our target market, including the more than 100,000,000 segment of the U.S. population that has been categorized as obese, along with the 60,000,000 retiring Baby Boomers, to save thousands per year over more costly fitness options in the marketplace, and still realize the benefits of a quality fitness experience.
While appealing to an enormous market with both substantial fitness and wellness benefits, and at the same time delivering formidable savings, Net Savings Link will concurrently benefit from the additional revenue stream of commissions provided by nationwide vendors, who participate in the delivery of the fitness program content.
With media coverage increasing almost daily regarding the lack of fitness in America, the new Fitness Category is aimed at educating the consumer as well as offering them product solutions and tools. Visitors to the website will be able to learn from experts on how to get in shape and then stay lean by selecting from over 75 full color videos, each targeting a specific muscle group and delivering specific instruction. It's like having your very own personal trainer at no cost.
To round out the "one stop" experience, a fitness/wellness store has been incorporated in the category that includes Sports and Nutrition, Vitamins and Supplements, and Apparel and Accessories -- all at discount.

Market for wearable fitness devices poised to 'explode'
Fitness Comments Off on Market for wearable fitness devices poised to 'explode'
If you're a fan of wearable sport and fitness sensor devices, you'll be glad to know the trend is hot and only getting hotter. According to research firm ABI, consumers can expect to see 90 million shipments of such gadgets in 2017.
According to ABI on Wednesday, the market will "explode" over the next few years, as companies such as Nike, Adidas, and Motorola as well as specialized vendors such as Polar and Garmin unveil new, updated devices.
While sports, fitness, and well-being trackers will be the most popular, the analysts say that home monitoring applications for assisted living and remote patient care to manage chronic conditions will also surge.
Over the next five years, the total market for wearable wireless devices in sports and healthcare will grow to nearly 170 million devices in 2017, up from 20 million in 2011, an expected growth of more than 40 percent.
Bluetooth 4.0 takes a lot of credit for the expected expansion, as the new technology is making inroads into a slew of fitness and health products, according to both ABI and The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG).
Announced earlier this month, Bluetooth SIG is forming a new Sports and Fitness Working Group, which aims to increase interoperability between wearable gadgets and sensors and so-called "hub" devices such as smartphones, televisions, and gym equipment.
