Coconut Oil Builds Athletes in the South Pacific

Coconut oil is good for strengthen your immune system, hair care, skin care, diabetes, stress relief, bone strength, maintaining cholesterol levels, weight loss, digestion and metabolism, relief from kidney problems, heart diseases, high blood pressure, HIV and cancer.

As long as the island people in the South Pacific stayed with their island food, they were healthy. Today the food is killing them.

Ignorance pays the price.

Until recently many people in the South Pacific didn't care about what they were eating and a huge amount of unhealthy products were imported to satisfy peoples craving for the new and exciting western food products.

Western food was considered to better than the island food and everyone rather bought canned fish than the fresh fish from the ocean.

The price for unhealthy eating of processed western food now has to be paid. The people in Samoa have the highest rate of diabetes in the world and the hospital is full of people waiting to cut off their toes, feet and legs.

The athletes know better

At the same time as the Samoan people are one of the unhealthiest people in the world, they are also producing some of the best athletes.

Samoa is a tiny South Pacific Island nation with just 180 thousand people and still they won the World Sevens Rugby tournament. They have also produced a heavy weight boxing champion, David Tua and a world famous wrestler, "The Rock".

Samoan sports athletes are today back to a well balanced island food together with coconut oil that is vital in all the cooking. The taro root in Samoa is as important as the potato in the western world. Taro has a natural steroid which is a reason why people are growing big.

What kind of body are you building?

What side are you on when it comes to building your body and future. Are you building your body on processed junk food preparing for your diabetes doom or are you making a choice for fresh balanced food as building stones for a healthy body?

For your health you need fat. The fat from coconut oil and butter is not only healthy, it is vital. Eat a lot of vegetables and fruits. Enjoy fresh good quality meat and fish. Avoid all processed food and stay low on grains if you like to develop a good looking healthy body.

You don't need to be a sports fan to develop a strong beautiful body but you do need to move. Go for a long walk or work in your garden.

You have only one body that you carry with you all your life. Put in a little extra effort making the experience light and enjoyable rather than heavy and troubled.

Western Pacific
How long would it take to swim across the Pacific Ocean?

Are their modern suits that can resist the cold water temperature of the Pacific Ocean for many hours? Has anybody been able to do this, for Example swim from the Western US to the coast of China?

Wetsuits help ward off the cold, but some consider wearing them cheating because of the buoyancy they provide.

The water temperature really isn't the problem with a swim of this magnitude, most veteran open water swimmers can handle temperatures in the 60 - 70 degree range.

Fast open water swimmer can swim about 1 mile every 20 -25 minutes. The English Channel record is just under 7 hours and that is about 18 miles long. The problem is keeping this up for long periods of time. It can be done for 8 hours or so, but after that, swimmers start to slow down. Also, there is a problem trying to swim day after day. It would be much better a group of swimmers could attempt something like this, switching off relay style about every 4 hours. That way they could swim around the clock. I figure conservatively about 60 miles a day could be accomplished this way, so the distance between China and the US is 6000 or so, that would take 100 days of constant swimming. If the relay ended in Japan, that would cut off about 900 miles and that would cut of 15 days.

As you can see, this type of swim really isn't very feasible for one swimmer because if it was done where they rested at night and got in the next day at the same place the left off, it would take at least double or triple (200 to 300 days) the amount of time the "swimming all the time relay" takes.

If you want to get technical, no one has swam the Atlantic yet. Some have swam parts of it, but all have rested on their boats and traversed a large portion of the distance on the boat.
