This blog will detail how to achieve your ultimate goals in mind-body (and body-mind!): fitness, wellness, and increasing health-span. The information is based on a wide variety of sources, and many of the most brilliant and progressive specialists I have found in each of their respective fields. Prevention is the key to a happy and healthy life... as I say in the blog: Use it or lose it! So it goes with the aging process. But aging as we know it does not have to occur as rapidly, or decrease our quality of life like it does in our modern society.
This blog uses "evidence-based" information integrating western medicine and thought, as well as alternative/integrative medicine approaches. This is important since there is SOOOO much misinformation in our world today! Scrutiny must be applied to marketing claims, dieting systems, and the numerous alternative methods of treatment. This peer-review/evidence-based approach ensures that the information presented is based on valid research and methodology.
A lack of communication and associated "compartimentalization", between health-care providers in different specialties has created a chasm between the tradional "western" medical health care system and our personal responsibilty/education to PREVENT this dis-ease. This combined with lack of activity (studies show on average Americans burn 800 less Kcal/day than in 1975), and increases in refined/process foods, is causing disastrous trends in America and other industrialized nations today.
The reactive approach of treating the sypmtom of dis-ease after it has already occurred is not the answer, prevention is the key.
