Exercise and Breathing



            Another weekend of bad weather, seems to be becoming a habit. I hope that everyone survived the ice without slips and falls. If you did though, come in to the office to be aligned correctly so that the problem doesn’t develop into worse issues this spring, when you really want to be outside and enjoying life. We see this very often in every year, when people fall in January or February and then come in to the office in April or May with big problems and pain. It can take several months for these misalignments to work into swelling and weakness. Get checked soon, even if you haven’t fell!
            January is moving right along and we are already into the 3rd week. Don’t forget to listen to our health shop tonight at 6. Will we will be talking about exercise and breathing. I’ve included an article that talks about doing Burpees as an easy exercise to shape up with. We also have patients just try to walk every day or every other day to simply keep them moving. Many people start out with big ideas on exercise at the beginning of the year but the ambition tapers off after a couple of months. That’s understandable with the increased activities of spring. It’s just good to get into a simple exercise habit that you can do all year round. And you don’t have to overdo it, like run marathons, but just stay active and moving.

            We have several great tools now to check patients on their health status. Our heart rate variability test gives us a good understanding of the autonomic nervous system and how it is working. We also have the heart sound recorder which can check the condition of the heart itself by listening to the valves work. We are also bringing online some new testing equipment in our exam room to further evaluate our patient’s conditions and improvements with our 3 types of treatment, chiropractic-nutrition-emotional. As you can imagine, we are having great success with helping patients be healthy and happy and at optimum, not just pain free, but truly healthy. We want so much to help you and yours stay out of the medical paradigm of drugs and surgery and high expense.

Most People Don't Reach Micronutrient Requirements Through Food Alone

  STORY AT-A-GLANCE Most adolescents are not getting adequate nutrient intake from diet alone — a finding confirmed from other studies in developed countries such as Spain, France, Portugal and Germany Three-quarters of adolescents consumed less than 54% of the recommended amounts of healthy foods like fruits, vegetables and dairy products Nearly three-quarters of the youth exceeded the recommended limit for sweet and salty snacks — by 453% When nutrient intake was considered from diet alone, adolescents often consumed less than recommended amounts of the fat-soluble vitamins A, D and E along with the water-soluble vitamins folate, biotin and pantothenic acid The use of dietary supplements helped to increase the adolescents’ intake of vitamins and minerals, particularly magnesium and vitamin C, but this isn’t a replacement for a healthy, nutrient-rich diet While it’s possible to get all the vitamins and minerals your body needs by eating a healthy diet, most people fall short.

Breast Health

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-             Aren’t the trees beautiful? Fall is such a beautiful time of year and the weather has been outstanding. I hope you were able to get outside and increase your vitamin D stores for the winter. Remember that vitamin D is activated by sunlight so it’s important to get some. Vitamin D is also an oil soluble vitamin so you must be consuming good fats in order to have a good vitamin D source. If you get into the science of vitamin D, you’ll find it comes from cholesterol so the mainstream medicines war on cholesterol causes vitamin D levels to be low and this causes lots of immune system problems and other issues. We help our patients be able to digest and absorb fats and watch that their vitamin D levels are optimum.             The article I’m sending along this week looks at screenings and mammograms and how they can be...

Communication

  Natural Health Family, how is everyone doing? I hope everyone enjoyed the beautiful weekend and got some sunshine. Today let’s talk about communication and why it is important in our lives and for our own health.  Last weekend I explored Colorado. I went snowboarding and hiked a good amount also. I learned a lot just by getting out in nature and noticing different aspects of the forest and parks. One characteristic of the forest that I found interesting was the aspen trees. It appeared that they would appear sporadically in the forest and in groups. I was curious and wanted to learn more about them. I found out that the different aspen trees or tree trunks are not separate but they actually function as one tree. The roots of the tree are well connected so that they are able to communicate and act as one organism. I found this interesting because we tend to think that the whole tree is only about what is on the surface of the ground rather than all the roots and connections...
