[ Editor's Note: Fitness author Jon Benson shared this letter with me and gave me permission to share it with you.]
Have you ever started out to do one thing but ended up doing something different?
Night and day different?
Remember how Post-It Notes were invented?
Some guy was trying to come up with a "permanent" glue.
Obviously he failed... and he considered it a failure... but 3M had another idea.
The guy was all of a sudden Joe Brilliant.
Well, I'm feeling a bit like Joe today.
But this is much more interesting to you than Post-It Notes...
It's about s - e - x... sorta.
Not dirty, I'm talking about couple's stuff here.
My new book just came out today about it.
But it didn't start off that way at all.
In fact ... get this... I was co-writing a book with medical researcher Frank Mangano on lowering blood pressure without meds... really.
So how did this big U-turn occur?
Okay, okay.... funny, true story:
I read this article from a medical journal about how "lowering blood pressure would help sexual-performance-problems."
Ding. The light bulb went off in my head.
You see, lowering blood pressure is probably the most healthy thing you can do for yourself.
But face it -- it's really, really BORING.
I mean, who really cares about their blood pressure unless their doctor says, "Look, lower your blood pressure or you'll die in six months."
Then you care.
Are you with me?
I'm right and we all know it.
Heck, I was the same way.
I ignored my blood pressure for years until it hit stroke-level back in my 30s.
Then I could no longer ignore it.
I found every natural alternative possible... which led me to Frank's books... and they are the BEST.
So Frank comes to me and asks me to contribute to his very popular on-the-shelf book "The Blood Pressure Miracle" --
... and I said,
"Hey, guess what I just read?"
Since he's the researcher, I said, "Go see if there's any truth to this."
The results BLEW MY MIND.
Not only is there truth to it -- that, yes... lowering blood pressure not only extends your life but also extends your sex life as well -- but WOW... it's a major player in everything from male-ED to females feeling "out of the mood."
It's crazy, but it's true.
It makes sense once you read this:
<--- Low Pressure Sex-System
Hang with me: It gets better...
So Frank digs up article after article on the subject of high blood pressure and LOW sexual-energy and performance... and we have a much more compelling reason to want to lower our blood pressure, now don't we?
But we wanted more.
I said, "Look Frank, I get a lot of emails about sex-after-30... people who want to feel more kick, more alive in that area of their lives... and above all, closer to their mates."
So... we decided to add another book on TOP of our book...
... a book on improving sexual-pleasure for couples only. "Revolutionary Sex" is the name of it. My friend Alex Allman wrote it...and just like that we had two books instead of one.
But that's not all... ( told you... this story is interesting... ; )
THEN my friend Jeff Anderson comes out with his "homemade V" -- and guys, we know what "V" stands for.
Listen: V (little blue things) is really dangerous stuff. It really is. It RAISES blood pressure for one thing. For another it can cause addiction and memory loss.
But Jeff's version is all-natural, cheap (we're talking pennies instead of dollars per "pill" to make) and above all... SAFE.
So all of a sudden... THREE books (plus an audio)... so...
It became a System, not a book.
And the topic went from "lowering blood pressure" to ...
... How you can completely solve your sexual-performance-problems and increase your pleasure all by lowering blood pressure naturally without meds."
What a concept...
...and it WORKS.
<--- Low Pressure Sex-System
Here are the advantages...
1. If you take blood pressure meds... and a lot of you do... your "kick in the stick" suffers. A lot. Some men suffer all the way, which lead them to taking the V stuff...
... and that stuff 'raises' blood pressure.
Bad, bad combo. Our System gets you off of that dangerous and expensive cycle of drugs and on to a natural, easy approach that also adds pleasure to your relationship.
2. Cheaper... by far... than meds.
3. Something you can read and do as a couple or as a single person.
4. You get healthy and you get your vigor back at the same time. Ladies too.
5. It's guaranteed-to-work... 60 days on us.
I'm very proud of this System. We put a lot of time, research and effort into it.
If you want a life free from high BP and sexual-performance-issues and better health, then go here:
<--- Low Pressure Sex-System
P.S. There's even more to this story --
We created an "Advanced Health and Relationship-Saver Kit" that comes with the most awesome self-hypnosis audios to help you relieve stress, lower pressure, increased your "drive", and more.
You can get the starter Kit or the Advanced Kit here:
<--- Low Pressure Sex-book
Here's to your health... and your increased pleasure and enjoyment.

Have you Heard About the Stopwatch Diet System?
Millions of people around the world fight with their weight, and they aim towards weight loss. Most of them suffer with this ordeal for many years until they finally find the formula that works best for them. With so many fad diets and pills on the market, it can be frustrating to know which one works best.
Today a new way that people are starting to lose weight is known as the stop watch method. The general rule of thumb with this method is to remember that you typically only have food cravings approximately every eight to fourteen minutes. Based on this fact, you can do a better job of not giving in to cravings
In this stopwatch program the real secret to success with the stop watch method is to be fully aware of the signals your body is sending you. If you feel hungry, simply stop for a few minutes and think about it. How truly hungry are you, or do you just want to eat something? Opt for water instead and see if you still fee hungry afterward. If so, then progress to the healthy snack and see how you feel.
How this stopwatch diet works is not so much the fact that you begin drinking more water or eating healthier foods as it is the fact that you're gaining discipline. Self control is the key to kicking addictions and the key to accomplishing goals.
If you have been on a diet roller coaster then now may the best time to see a new way to approach your weight loss programs.
Here is another option to try that many have been successful with.

Resturant Tricks to Get Us to Eat More
Over eating is one of the ways to break your diet program. Eating out you may just find that your favorite restaurant is working against your own self control. There is a science that restaurants use to trick you into eating more than you really want.
Cornell University researcher food psychologist Brian Wansink has researched the science of restaurant reflexes. The results may just surprise you.
First - Watch how many categories you order from the start. The wine list, the appetizer, the main course, the side item and the deserts can really cause you to over eat and not realize it till too late. He suggests that once you have picked your main course that you only order from 2 of the categories, such as an appetizer and a cocktail or a roll and desert.
Second - Unnatural lighting makes us less aware of how much we are eating. The lights are dimmed in order to have you stay longer and have that extra glass of wine or the desert. Brightly lit restaurant dinners tend to eat their food very fast getting full before they know it. His suggestion is to take a full 20 minutes to enjoy your meal no matter what type of restaurant. It takes your body that much time to register your are full.
Third - Dinning with a partner may cause us to eat 35% more than dinning alone. Former Georgia State university psychologist John De Castro found that eating with 3 increased the number 75%. Wansink thinks this may just be etiquette, in not wanting to the first one done eating. He suggest that you start after the others and reserve a few bits to have at the end and avoid being finished first.
Fourth - What you food is served on will make a difference in how much you will eat. Fancy china verse paper plates have an effect on us. It is believed that we will eat 90% of the food in front of us, no matter what size the serving dish is. You may want to ask for half portion or share and entree or ask for that to-go box.
Fifth - A cleaned off table can deceive you on how much you have eaten. Brian Wansink used volunteers to see how this worked. They were invited to have all the chicken wings they wanted. Some of the tables were cleared of the eaten food and some were not. He found that the cleared table eaters ate 28% more than the not cleared tables. As your dishes are cleared try to make a mental tally of all your courses to avoid overeating.
Lastly - Did you know that even the name of the items on a menu have an effect on what we order? The term "homemade" will have you ordering something before a more generic term.
