    Reducing Allergies with Essential Oils with Lila Collins, RN Let's talk about ALLERGIES! Allergies can either be seasonal or year round, and the pesky symptoms include sneezing, itchy red/watering eyes, runny nose, wheezing, chest tightness, shortness of breath, coughing, rashes, swollen lips or skin, and just overall feeling sick. They can be triggered by airborne allergens such as pollen, pet dancer, dust mites, and mold; or they can be from foods such as peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, soy, fish, etc. They occur when the body's immune system is reacting to a particular substance as though it is harmful.    Here's how it happens:  When allergens are breathed in, the immune system views it as danger, so it releases antibodies that attack the allergens. A chemical called histamine is released into the nose, eyes, and lungs, which is intended to attack harmful agents and remove them from the body.    Allergies and Your Immune System Allergies generally indicate that your immune system us in overdrive, reacting to a whole host of things that don't usually cause harm to the body.    Things You Can Do to Control Allergy Symptoms Cleanse your nose with a net pot  Detox Your Body Chiropractic Care Essential Oils   Essential Oils Essential oils help detoxify the body and fight infections, bacteria, parasites, microorganisms, and other harmful toxins.

    Podcast 18: Foods that Boost Your Immune System   What is your immune system? Your immune system is made up of a complex network of organs and glands that fight off viruses and bacteria to keep you healthy.   How to boost your immune system? Good diet Exercise and movement Stress reduction Sleep Vitamin D Chiropractic adjustments   Foods you can eat to boost your immune system:   Vitamin C Foods Why Vitamin C? Vitamin C raises the production of white blood cells, which are vital in fighting off infections. All citrus foods are high in Vitamin C (grapefruits, lemons, oranges, limes, etc). The recommended daily dose is 75mg for women and 90 mg for men.   Broccoli Broccoli is supercharged with vitamins A, C, and E and minerals. Steaming broccoli is the best way to retian the nutrients   Bell Peppers Did you know that bell peppers have 3x as much vitamin C as a Florida orange? It is also loaded with beta carotene, which is great for the immune system and skin health!   Prebiotics Probiotics are beneficial bacteria, while prebiotics are the food foundation for these bacteria—we need both! Prebiotics come from mostly fibrous carbs that humans can’t digest. The beneficial bacteria in your gut then eat this fiber. Prebiotics are found in vegetables, fruits, and legumes! They are also found in oats, bananas, garlic, onions, asparagus, and berries. See the link below for a list of recipes!!   Foods Rich in Probiotics Probiotics are found in naturally fermented foods like kimchi, kraut, yogurt, and kombucha. Probiotics create a balance of bacteria in your digestive system, which inhibits growth of harmful gut bacteria!   Zinc Zinc activates the enzymes used to break down proteins in viruses and bacteria, so they are less able to spread. Our bodies cannot make zinc, so it is important to eat foods high in it such as seafoods, meat, tofu, lentils, yogurts, oats, mushrooms, and unsweetened dark chocolate.   Check out these amazing immune recipes here: https://www.feastingathome.com/immunity-boosting-foods/

    #8 Aging Gracefully with Guest Mary Rather, NP

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 19, 2019 33:28


    Aging Gracefully When we interviewed Mary Rather NP, on what her advice to aging gracefully is based on her 20+ years experience in hospitals and acute adult care nursing homes she gave very simple answers to the complex problem of aging. Her formula for aging gracefully was to exercise 3 or more days per week, get your nutrition in check, go see your Chiropractor, and learn how to deal with stress.  Her personal mantra is “anything is possible”, “I’ve beaten cancer and diabetes through a mind over matter approach and taking small, manageable steps every day that lead towards a healthier future.” There are very few negatives about aging if you really think about it. The experience, knowledge, and the resilience gained through years of trials and tribulation should be enough to make you look forward to aging. Aging with a negative mindset can only serve to fuel pessimistic behavior and mindset. Instead of worrying about the woes of aging, we should be proud of the physical and emotional attacks that come from a life that you have survived. Through good luck or good genes (even bad genes) or both, the old have dodged fatal accidents, premature disease, and other things that kill the young. You are stronger, and you get to live longer. Aging is the one disease that will affect virtually every person on the planet.  The real trick in treating aging is doing it with grace and style because there is no treatment for it.  With it being impossible to prevent effects of time on the body, there are silver linings to be found. It should be pointed out that aging is inevitable, so why let it bog you down? Accept the inevitable changes of aging, rather than seeing them as aberrant crises. During the course of his career, Illinois psychologist Mark Frazier, PsyD, has worked with thousands of older people ages 65 to 105.  Again and again, he has seen an important key to psychological health: accepting that your life won't stay the same. Aging changes everyone and if you don't have important things out in front of you, there is enough about the aging process that is not positive and you can get caught up in what you don't like about it. Part of the challenge of aging gracefully is that you have to continue to find things that are important to you. Continue to find meaning in life. One way to succeed at this is to plan for purposeful activities before you retire. Plan that vacation you have always been talking about, plan to pursue your life’s dreams and ambitions.  You have a wonderful opportunity to reinvent yourself after retirement, do it! It should be a transition. It shouldn't be, 'Stop work one day and fall off a cliff.' With this new found free time, fill your life with passion. Maybe this is taking up that hobby you’ve always had an interest in, but never enough time to actually pursue. It could be exercising more, learning to cook, gardening, hiking, pleasure reading, or practicing meditation and mindfulness. You are also never too old to set goals.  I don’t subscribe to that old adage “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks”. That does not seem fair to those who are open-minded about learning new things and growing. You may never be able to beat your personal best time in that turkey trot 5k race when you were 40 years old, but you can still train to set a new personal best at age 70. Without goals, you can fall into a woe-is-me way of thinking.  I’ll never be like I once was, I’ll never be who I once was. It’s true. If you were the same person you were 40 years ago have you become better?

    Podcast #7 The 3 Biggest Postural Problems

    Play Episode Listen Later Jan 30, 2019 25:56


    What are the 3 biggest posture problems (in our humble opinion) that face us today?! Anterior Pelvic Tilt Forward head posture Rounded shoulders   How many times did your mom, dad or teacher tell you to “sit up straight, stop slouching, and put shoulders back?!” If it was anything like our childhoods you heard this often and it’s something you continue to hear all the time in this day and age.  Proper posture matters! Why it is important? What is proper posture?   Proper posture is important because it can lead to structural changes over periods of time.  Not only structural changes in the body, but it can also lead to changes in their way our brain perceives sensory input such as pain.  Our spine is the bodies central support structure that holds you upright and if not taken care of this support structure can crumble. Nobel Prize recipient Dr. Roger Sperry, “...the spine is the motor that drives the body.”  According to his research, “Better than 90 percent of the energy output of the brain is used in relating the physical body in its gravitational field. The more mechanically distorted a person is, the less energy available for thinking, metabolism, and healing.” “...90% of the stimulation and nutrition to the brain is generated by the movement of the spine.”  If you don’t move it, you lose it.   Does this sound like your day? You wake up, sit in your car to drive to work, sit at your desk all day, go to lunch where you sit (or you don’t eat because you are too busy working and work through lunch) then you get back in your to drive back home where you sit down for dinner then again on the couch to relax?     The vast majority of our day is sitting and usually sitting with bad posture. If you’re saying, “Hey! I exercise after work, I go running or I bike.” Then I say, “Awesome!”, but are you doing the proper mobility work to break those bad posture habits you hold for 10 hours a day when you exercise for only 1 hour?  If you are not breaking these habits then you are increasing your risk of injury while exercising.   So let’s talk about these posture problems.  Anterior pelvic tilt (APT) is when the front of the pelvic drops in relation to the back of the pelvis.   APT or commonly referred to as “sway-back” can lead to lower back problems, hip, knee and ankle problems. Here is how to test for sway-back in yourself.  Stand with your feet 2-6 inches away from the wall with your butt and shoulders touching the wall. How easily can your hand slide behind your back? If there is no resistance against your hand you are sway-back.  This means you are susceptible to low back pain and pain in any of the joints in your legs.   Forward head posture is another common one we see in adults.  We also are seeing this more and more frequently in young children.  Researchers have even started to refer to this condition as text neck.  Normally your head should be directly placed over the shoulders and you could draw an imaginary line down from your ear you should hit your shoulder, hip, knee, and ankle.  Forward head posture can lead to headaches, neck pain and trigger points in your neck,  shoulders and middle back.   The last posture problem we see is rounded shoulders.  This often is related to those who work at computers or at a desk all day.  Their arms are constantly in front of them forcing their shoulders to round forward.  We see this often in those who spend lots of time in the gym neglecting their back muscles.  We are looking at you, gym bro, who only bench presses.   How to live a balanced life on the go.  Here is our one thing. Move a little differently than you are used to.  Every day don’t forget to move a little bit every hour. The only bad posture is the posture we spend to much time in.  If we stay in just a few positions over the whole day we create weakness and dysfunction. You don’t need to go to the gym to move.  Move your head, your arms, your legs. Just get up and MOVE!
