As the fall season approaches, we at V-Force Scientific Fighting Concepts schools and academy’s are preparing for this years outbreak of SWINE FLU (H1N1).
To make sure classes are safe and sanitary we ask that all academy’s clean your equipment with a alcohol or bleach type cleaner, mop your floors, and spray your doors and any other object that are touched frequently.
DO NOT ALLOW and SICK STUDENT to participate in class until they are feeling better, even if it is NOT the SWINE FLU.
If they do contract SWINE FLU/H1N1 the student will not be allowed to participate in class for 2 weeks.
If the student or yourself are going away, you must let the instructor know where and when and it is the instructors job to make sure the area is not under a current outbreak.
If the Instructor does come down with H1N1, you must CLOSE the school for 1 full week and have a neutral party/staff member come in and clean the facility.
DONT LET SWINE FLU GET THE BEST OF YOU THIS YEAR.
Eat healthy, clean your hands often, and take supplements to boost your immune system.
More information on H1N1 can be found at the World Health Organizations Homepage:

By now, we’ve all heard that high-fat diets are bad for our health in the long run. But what about the short-term?
A new study on rats finds that 10 days of eating a high-fat diet caused short-term memory loss and made exercise difficult. While the finding may not seem a big surprise, the researcher say it might suggest that high-fat diets make humans lazy and stupid.
“Western diets are typically high in fat and are associated with long-term complications, such as obesity, diabetes, and heart failure, yet the short-term consequences of such diets have been given relatively little attention,” said Andrew Murray, co-author of the study and currently at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. “We hope that the findings of our study will help people to think seriously about reducing the fat content of their daily food intake to the immediate benefit of their general health, well-being, and alertness.”
The findings are detailed in the FASEB Journal.
Rodents are thought to be good analogues to humans for studies like this, but research in humans would be needed to confirm that the effects cross over. Also, because rats live much shorter lives, study effects may play out on significantly shorter time scales than in humans.
Murray and colleagues studied rats fed a low-fat diet (7.5 percent of calories as fat) and rats fed a high-fat diet (55 percent of calories as fat). Muscles of rats eating the high-fat diet for four days were less able to use oxygen to make the energy needed to exercise, causing their hearts to worker harder - and increase in size.
After nine days on a high-fat diet, the rats took longer to complete a maze and made more mistakes in the process than their low-fat-diet counterparts.
In the fat-laden rats the researchers found increased levels of a protein called uncoupling protein 3, which made them less efficient at using oxygen needed to make the energy required for running.
“It’s nothing short of a high-fat hangover,” said Dr. Gerald Weissmann, editor-in-chief of journal. “A long weekend spent eating hotdogs, French fries, and pizza in Orlando might be a great treat for our taste buds, but they might send our muscles and brains out to lunch.”
