The Wellness Doctor and Coach Is In! January

Are you ready for a healthy and wealthy 2010?

Most of us are. While many of us are still in recession-mode, many of us also want to move on and make the best of 2010!
Many may have made a resolution to start fresh and join the local gym, others may still have it on their calendar without any set up date.
Many may have gone through downsizing, mergers or bankruptcies and, in the end, we all strive to make this year the healthiest and wealthiest ever.

What are the most 7 common challenges most people face to maximize their health and wealth?

1. “I want to be healthy but it’s hard to start and maintain my plan, I’m too busy:”
Indeed, most people start with high expectations (i.e.: lose five pounds in one week, run on the treadmill for one hour, start meditating half an hour every week or cut work hours)
to then realize their targets are way too high. What happens next? Many people give up altogether.

2. “I have tons of work and I’m the only person who can do this:”
While we perceive a powerful position as being indispensable, this is one of the most common reasons for feeling overwhelmed with an amazing amount of work to do.

3. “I need to make $1,000.000 over the next three months to meet my target by the end of the year:”
It’s excellent to be guided by a specific, targeted goal and yet, if you have not made $500,000 in the last quarter, what makes you think you will be able to double that amount?

4. “I will only overwork for the next month and I will then go back to normal:”
While temporary decisions may be excellent strategies to boost a specific project, we tend to accommodate to doing more without going back to the previous state.

5. “I would love my work only if I could work alone, working with others stresses me out!”
Whether it’s a boss, a colleague, a client or an employee, people-stress may push us to the edge. . .

6. “My work life is perfect, I want to work more… My relationship with my wife and kids? Fine… Well, my wife is busy with her life and the kids don’t speak to me unless they want something. . .”
Most people feel the most important reason for their hard work is being able to provide for their loved ones and yet, many busy executives and entrepreneurs feel
distanced from their driving source of energy.

7. “I know I am gaining weight, my blood pressure is higher and my ulcer is acting out. I’m taking more medications and I can’t change anything in my lifestyle, this is the way it is:”
Most people who are already experiencing stress-related medical conditions minimize the impact their work-style has to do with their current issues until it’s too late. . .

    What’s your health strategy when taking vitamins or medications?

    I foresee what will happen with Gingko now.

    Most people will probably continue to take it in case the science is wrong. Their idea is to enhance cognition and eventually prevent memory loss and Alzheimer. Science hasn’t proven its cognitive properties, though, check this recent article published in Time magazine.


    Stay healthy over the holidays

    By Dr. Gaby Cora

    The holiday season brings wonderful feelings, great re-connections and overindulgence.

    This is the time of the year where most adults start gaining stuffing pounds carrying them over - and not losing them all - to the following year. A combination of overeating and sedentarism may be the culprit for this cycle.

    What to do?

    1. You definitely want to enjoy yourself and your family during the holiday season but you don’t need to have that third plate for dinner or dessert. Look at the whole buffet before you pile up food on your plate and take your time while you eat.
    2. Avoid drinking too much during the holiday season. Drinking daily while overeating will make you gain quite a bit of weight fast.
    3. You’ll start exercising after the holidays? Keep up with physical activity. You have your inlaws, your kids, and extended family? Organize a walk in the afternoon or try some outside games even if the weather is cold. You need to compensate eating more than usual with physical activity.
    4. Have a plan: If you have already carried over extra pounds from last year’s holidays and the previous holidays, you want to ensure you stop the negative cycle now.
    5. ENJOY! Have a wonderful time with your family and friends.

    HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!


    Do I Really Need A Daily Supplement?

    By Dr. Janet Brill

    Q: Do I really need to take a daily supplement if my diet is diverse and healthy?

    A: Americans love their supplements, with over half of us taking some type of dietary supplement daily. Is this a smart move? Although it is preferable to obtain all the nutrients our bodies require from consuming a healthy, balanced diet, the fact is, many of us fail to get in the 40-plus essential nutrients our bodies need on a daily basis.


    How Do Energy Drinks Impact Your Body?

    By Dr. Janet Brill

    Q: What’s the deal with energy drinks like Red Bull or Full Throttle? How do they impact my body and energy?

    A: We live such busy lives, is it any wonder so many of us feel tired and run-down and in need of a shot of energy to keep us going? Sadly, the recipe for good health and vigor simply can’t be bought in a single bottle of liquid. The most energetic people are those who are physically fit, and physical fitness comes from living a lifestyle that includes regular exercise, eating a healthy diet and routinely getting a good night’s sleep. Time management is also another piece of the puzzle, learning how to prioritize and leaving some time for rest, relaxation and even a quick cat-nap to reinvigorate ourselves during our long, hectic days.
