This may very well be the typical experience of a medical student entering the world of medicine: Parents were into health food stores before it was popular, meditation was part of her life “so I wanted to go to medical school expressly for this idea that I was going to be a more holistic doctor.” “I got to medical school and I was “slightly” surprised, that no one was talking to me about nutrition or lifestyle or the impact of meditation or mindset or health outcomes, that everything was pharmaceutical and or surgical driven.
And sadly in my rotations residency and as was in medical school, I just kept feeling like people keep coming back, they’re not actually getting better, we give them another medication or another intervention or a consultation with the surgeon yet they’re still really struggling with their health.” And there’s not enough time to talk about these other things that really matter.
Our world is full of environmental toxins. Throughout your life, your body has been exposed to air pollution, pesticides, herbicides, mold, chemicals, and other toxins. Reducing your exposure to environmental toxins is important, however, you also need to support your body from reducing toxins already affecting your body.
In this article, you will learn about toxins in our environment. You will understand why detox may be more important than nutrition. You will learn what binders are. You will learn about prescription binders and potential problems using them. I will go over the best natural binders to use. Finally, I will share my favorite toxin binder supplement.
Four things I learned on my summer vacation about maintaining metabolic health during leisure time—and what happens when it all goes wrong. As a society, we are working harder and more hours than ever and our mental and physical health is plummeting, so finding ways to recharge our minds and bodies when we have time away from work is maximally important.
Nearly 80 percent of more than 1,500 workers surveyed in a 2021 American Psychological Association questionnaire reported work-related stress in the past month. Repeated work-related stress can cause burnout. And burnout can occur if you don’t take breaks and unplug.
Philadelphia is among a growing number of cities creating programs to help residents “age in place” and maintain a connection with their community.
Like many people, Anne Tobey and her husband, Peter Schoenbach, wanted to spend their retirement years in a diverse neighborhood with easy access to arts and cultural attractions. But when they moved to Philadelphia’s Center City 14 years ago from Buffalo, New York, they didn’t know many people in the area.
Amyloid plaques and tau tangles in the brain are hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease. A new study found that people who eat diets rich in green leafy vegetables and other whole foods like a variety of other vegetables, fruits, whole grains, olive oil, beans, nuts, and fish, have fewer of these structural changes in their brains, compared to people who did not eat this type of diet.
It was also exciting to see that the study found improvement in just one area of a person’s diet, like eating more than six servings of green leafy vegetables per week or not eating fried foods, was associated with fewer amyloid plaques in the brain similar to being about four years younger. Another great example of using the power of food as medicine to age our best.
If you’re going to be building habits anyway, you might as well understand what they are and how they work and how to shape them so that you can be the architect of your habits and not the victim of them. If you keep casting votes for that new identity, eventually the identity will come. “I am a healthy person, and this is what I do.”
