LOUISVILLE, CO, March 29, 2011 (Press-News.org) Personal trainer, author and motivational speaker wants women to benefit in the same way that her polycystic ovarian syndrome was transformed
Katie Humphrey knows firsthand about just how miserable PCOS can make a woman's life.
She struggled for years with deeply distressing side-effects of polycystic ovarian syndrome like the lack of a menstrual cycle, weight gain, acne and constant fatigue. Finally, she was diagnosed with insulin resistance-linked PCOS and urged, like many women with this disorder, to take birth control pills and anti-diabetes medication to improve her health.
Unhappy with the prescribed course of action, Katie set off on a mission to discover a more natural way to overcome her condition. After extensive research, she began taking the Insulite PCOS System, which shared her approach to combating PCOS via natural supplements, nutrition and exercise. Within six months, she had lost over 25 pounds, had clear skin, enjoyed consistent, natural energy and radiated confidence. Her menstrual cycle was restored and her hormones were balanced again, so she no longer experienced mood swings, night sweats or PMS.
The transformation compelled Katie to find a new purpose in life and she became a NASM certified personal trainer and nutrition coach. Clients flocked to Katie and, after gaining enough experience, she turned her business, JK Humphrey International, into a global virtual company. Katie, who holds a B.A. in Business Administration, subsequently wrote a book entitled Freedom from PCOS: 3 Proven Steps to Naturally Overcome Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and Insulin Resistance.
She has been featured by Shape.com, ChickRx and the Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Association (PCOSA) as well as interviewed by dozens of national radio shows as a motivational speaker, health writer and life coach for women and girls suffering from PCOS.
Her message is that there are natural solutions to the symptoms of PCOS. And her aim is to empower females of all ages to create extraordinary changes in their health as well as in other areas of their lives by managing positive mental and emotional states.
"I used to struggle with PCOS and serious hormonal imbalance, and now I help women with PCOS take positive action to reverse their condition," says Katie.
"I did it through the support of Insulite Labs and their PCOS System, so now I want to help other women do the same!"
About PCOS
It is estimated that between 10-15% of women have PCOS, an endocrine disorder that is the leading cause of infertility. An imbalance of insulin and glucose, called insulin resistance, is often the underlying cause of PCOS.
Symptoms of PCOS can vary from woman to woman and may include: excess male hormones (androgens), unexplained weight gain, irregular or missing periods, excess facial and body hair, male pattern baldness, acne, ovarian cysts, fatigue, depression and mood swings, among other symptoms. Untreated, PCOS can lead to serious health issues such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and endometrial cancer.

About Insulite Laboratories
Insulite Laboratories was established in 2001 in Boulder, Colorado, USA, to research, develop and test a scientifically based, multi-layered approach to addressing the problems associated with insulin resistance - a potentially dangerous imbalance of blood glucose and insulin. Reversing the condition requires a complete, specialized system which incorporates potent nutraceuticals (a natural herb, vitamin, mineral or other nutrient used medicinally); a tailored nutrition plan; an exercise plan designed to increase insulin sensitivity; a component that address carbohydrate addiction; and an extensive support network.
Recognizing that there are millions of Individuals who need this kind of systematic approach to reversing insulin resistance, Insulite Laboratories has, over the past ten years, developed individual systems for PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome), excess weight/obesity, metabolic syndrome, pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes.

Russian boreal forests undergoing vegetation change, study shows
2011-03-29
Russia's boreal forest – the largest continuous expanse of forest in the world, found in the country's cold northern regions – is undergoing an accelerating large-scale shift in vegetation types as a result of globally and regionally warming climate. That in turn is creating an even warmer climate in the region, according to a new study published in the journal Global Change Biology and highlighted in the April issue of Nature Climate Change.
The Great Russian forest, which includes much of Siberia, is the size of the contiguous United States. It has experienced significant ...
India releases tiger numbers as experts convene
2011-03-29
New Delhi, India – The Indian Government today released new tiger population numbers for the first time since 2007, indicating that numbers have increased in the country that has half of the world's remaining wild tigers.
The government estimated current tiger numbers in India at 1,706, up from 1,411 during the last count in 2007. However, the 1,706 figure includes an additional tiger reserve in the count, the Sundarbans, that contained 70 tigers. This area was not counted in 2007.
Therefore, when comparing the previous survey with the current one, the official estimate ...

Analysis suggests cancer risk of backscatter airport scanners is low
2011-03-29
Calculations by researchers at the University of California, San Francisco and the University of California, Berkeley estimate that the cancer risk associated with one type of airport security scanners is low based on the amount of radiation these devices emit, as long as they are operated and function correctly.
"The doses are low – extremely low," said Rebecca Smith-Bindman, MD, a professor of radiology at UCSF, who made the calculations with Pratik Mehta, an undergraduate at UC-Berkeley. "The amount of radiation in these scans is so low that you don't have to be concerned ...
Twinkle, twinkle, quantum dot -- new particles can change colors and tag molecules
2011-03-29
COLUMBUS, Ohio – Engineers at Ohio State University have invented a new kind of nano-particle that shines in different colors to tag molecules in biomedical tests.
These tiny plastic nano-particles are stuffed with even tinier bits of electronics called quantum dots. Like little traffic lights, the particles glow brightly in red, yellow, or green, so researchers can easily track molecules under a microscope.
This is the first time anyone has created fluorescent nano-particles that can change colors continuously.

The Birth of a Novel: Josie Brown's THE BABY PLANNER is Nurtured by the Profession it Touts
2011-03-29
Conception is a blessed event, be it a child's, or a new book. That is novelist Josie Brown's contention. She should know. The idea for her fourth novel, The Baby Planner [Simon & Schuster/Gallery Books]--about a childless woman who channels her nurturing instincts toward her pregnant clients--was born in the reception area of her mammogram center.
"I picked up the only reading material available: a local parenting magazine," explains Brown, who lives in the San Francisco Bay Area. "My own children are older, so it wasn't necessarily something I felt might interest ...
Deep-sea volcanoes don't just produce lava flows, they also explode!
2011-03-29
Between 75 and 80 per cent of all volcanic activity on Earth takes place at deep-sea, mid-ocean ridges. Most of these volcanoes produce effusive lava flows rather than explosive eruptions, both because the levels of magmatic gas (which fuel the explosions and are made up of a variety of components, including, most importantly CO2) tend to be low, and because the volcanoes are under a lot of pressure from the surrounding water.
Over about the last 10 years however, geologists have nevertheless speculated, based on the presence of volcanic ash in certain sites, that explosive ...
OAI: News of Fee Increase Highlights Peculiarities of Mich. Auto Insurance Market
2011-03-29
Last week, the Michigan Catastrophic Claims Associations (MCCA) announced it would be instituting a slight fee increase that will be passed on to policyholders in the state.
Car insurance providers currently are required to pay the MCCA $143.09 per insured vehicle, which gets incorporated into the premiums of even the cheapest auto insurance companies in the state. That amount will be raised 1.3 percent starting in July. The fee revenue goes into an MCCA-administered fund that exists as a result of the unorthodox structure of Michigan's no-fault system.
Unlike the ...
Bones conjure Yellowstone's ecological ghosts
2011-03-29
By taking a closer look at animal bones scattered across the wilderness landscape, a researcher at the University of Chicago has found a powerful tool for showing how species' populations have changed over decades or even a century.
"The skeletons of long-dead animals lying on landscapes provide critical insight into our understanding of ecosystem history, especially how populations have changed," said the study's author, University of Chicago alumnus Joshua H. Miller, S.M.'05, PhD'09, a postdoctoral research fellow in biological sciences at Wright State University in ...
