Men’s Health Magazine was originally founded in 1987 and focused primarily on men’s health. Today, it focuses on all aspects of men’s lives, including nutrition, relationships, sexuality, fitness, and lifestyle, as well as other areas. It’s published by Rodale, Inc., in Emmaus, Pennsylvania. It is the largest and best selling men’s magazine “brand,” with 38 editions that publish globally and 12 million monthly readers. Its monthly circulation is 1.85 million; its website also boasts about 40 million hits a month.

Originally meant as a health magazine, today, the magazine focuses on every aspect of men’s lives, including the financial, fashion, and even travel aspects, as well as, of course, relationships. It has also been nominated for eight national magazine awards, and is a major source of information for men who just want to “be in the know” about the latest trends in men’s lives and solutions to problems.

Editor in chief David Zinczenko has been at the helm of the magazine since 2000, with the magazine seeing circulation growth of 30% in that time. Ad page volume has grown as well, from 700 pages to 1150 pages. Under Zinczenko’s leadership, it changed its look somewhat as well, in that it began focusing on celebrities and athletes exclusively as its cover “models.” Zinczenko was named Editor of the Year by Adweek in 2008.

Men’s Health has gotten involved in combating childhood obesity too, with its launch of the FitSchools initiative, in 2007. With this initiative, health, fitness and nutrition experts go to selected schools and overhaul the school lunch and fitness programs within the school itself. Its now-established The FitSchools Foundation is a nonprofit organization that seeks to end childhood obesity and get kids interested in an active, fit lifestyle.

In November 2008, Men’s Magazine scored a major coup when it put then President Elect Barack Obama on its cover. As one executive said, “He is the prototypical Men’s Health guy: successful, a good dad, a good husband.” This is one focus, in fact, that sets Men’s Health apart from so many other “guy magazines on the market. The focus is on the complete man, not just on building big muscles, or on the superficial. Fitness and health are there of course as well, but they comprise only a part of the picture, not all of it.

However, it has garnered some criticism because the magazine does focus quite a lot on the so-called “perfect body.” This has led some critics to surmise that it will make men worry about their physical appearance more, such that they workout harder to the point of injury, develop eating disorders, and overly obsess about their physiques in general.

Be that as it may, this strong performer, which won Best Magazine Performer of the Decade from Cappell’s Circulation Report in 2007 and continues to be named to “best of” lists on a yearly basis, is clearly not going anywhere. With its focus on the “whole man,” not just one aspect such as fitness or sexuality, it continues to be a dominant and well-thought-out choice on the newsstand for men everywhere.

Can you believe how many body moisturizing creams there are on the market today? It can certainly be overwhelming when it comes to picking the best one. But how do you know which type is most effective? This article will give you some useful tips that will help guide you through your search.

The best body moisturizing cream would ideally be made using all-natural and organic ingredients. Sure, all-natural products may be a bit more expensive, but that is only because the ingredients are more expensive to extract and develop than synthetic substances and byproducts from other industries. On top of this, all-natural substances are accepted well by your skin since their makeup is so similar to that of your own natural oils and moisturizers.

Here’s something you should know about the skin care industry: Now a days, skin care companies are all about piling up the ingredients in their products. The more specific ingredients a product has that consumers know about, the better chances they have of selling their product. But unfortunately for consumers, many of these products do not produce the results that are expected because they fail to include EFFECTIVE amounts of the main ingredients.

This is something you should be thinking about when searching for the best body moisturizing cream. Take a look at the company itself (call them if you have to) and see if they understand this problem. Do they pride themselves on the quality and effectiveness of their product? Do they make sure that effective amounts of each ingredient are used in every one of their products?

Speaking of ingredients, it’s helpful if you know of a few specific essential oils and natural moisturizers that are knows to have great beneficial properties for your skin. Here are a few to look for in the best body moisturizing cream:

*Jojoba Oil- deeply moisturizing for the skin, reduces wrinkles and stretch marks, and helps balance your skin’s sebum (natural oils).

*Grapeseed Oil- creates an invisible film around your skin to keep moisture in, rich in essential oils.

*Wakame- a sea kelp extract that helps to preserve hyaluronic acid levels, a substance that’s primarily responsible for retaining moisture in the skin.

Health is very important for everyone. Maintaining good health is essential even during economy downturn. One of the hard efforts taken by the Federal Government to overcome the effects of financial crisis is to help the citizens, either adults or children, with health insurance coverage and quality medical facilities. Here comes the amendment for Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1986 (COBRA) and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP).

The increasing unemployment rate among the nations has caused the loss of valuable health insurance coverage for many people who were previously covered by the group healthcare plan. In response, the Federal Government has enacted new legislation to help the unemployed with COBRA coverage, where the unemployed is able to continue on their employer’s group insurance plan for up to 18 months after losing the job.

For a person to be qualified for this program, he or she must have lost his or her job between 1st September 2008 and 31st December 2009. The annual household income must be less than USD 125,000 for an individual and less than USD 250,000 for a family. Under the reauthorized act, the qualified citizens pay 35% of the premium and the government pays the remaining 65%. This assistance could continue for a maximum duration of nine months.

Besides COBRA, another important measure the Federal Government has taken recently is the reauthorization of State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP). This customized program enables children and teenagers under the age of 18 as well as pregnant women to be eligible for receiving health insurance and directly obtaining medical assistance. Under the new law, families can earn up to 300% of the poverty level and they are still qualified for SCHIP. This program is a state administered program. As a result, the eligibility criteria and the benefits for this program may vary from state to state.

The two recent government measures mentioned above are basically meant for citizens who are out of job and out of health insurance coverage. The government assistance is given to support both jobless citizens and their families to overcome their health problems during hard times. If you have been retrenched at the moment, get more detailed information about these measures and apply for it!
