Yesterday we got in a new shipment of fish oil : large liquid bottles and small liquid bottles. It's pretty exciting because it's one of the products in our office that is in high demand. The one we carry is by. Innate Choice Fish Oil.Why is it important to have fish oil?
Well that's a good question because I'm not 100% sure I can answer that. I know that it's good for your heart, your immune system, it helps with anti aging and so much more. So I will tell everyone what, next week I will get Dr. Trent Iverson of Bandana Chiropractic and Wellness Center to do a short video on the benefits of Fish Oil.
Other upcoming events for next week? Well Memorial Day is one then here in the office Dr. Hugh Wegwerth will be hosting a workshop on Insulin. Pretty important stuff.
If anyone is curious on how to take liquid fish oil, it's not that bad. For starters:
Week 1: 1 teaspoon a day
Week 2: 2 teaspoons a day
Week 3: 3 teaspoons (a tablespoon) a day
Then every week after continue the 1 tablespoon a day. One of my coworkers will take the tablespoon and mix the fish oil in her food and drinks. I take mine like I would've taken cough syrup as a kid, a tablespoonful straight. It doesn't taste bad the texture is just... oily. Hence it's fish "oil". But I know it's good for me and not all good stuff we do is fun.
The Power is On!

Spine Fit Workshop - Dr. Scott Halida
This is the first of several workshops that I will be filming in order to share some of the knowledge I learn. Also it's a good way for me to review what I have learned. Dr. Scott Halida hosted a workshop about Spine Fit which teaches you about the things you do on a regular basis and how to do them while putting the least amount of stress onto your spine. This in turn will help you prevent pains and disease.
Dr. Scott opens with a reference to a new book we have in our office : "The Wellness Prevention Paradigm" by Dr. Chestnut. I haven't read it yet but have heard quotes from the book. Next week I will buy the book and start reading them give you a review of what I think of the book. I have divided the videos up by sections so it would be easier to refer to them later:

Introduction from a CA
My name is Helen and I am a Chiropractic Assistant (CA) at Bandana Chiropractic and Wellness Center. When I started this job, I took it as a job. Today, a year later, I take it not just as a job but also as a way of living because that is what we do here. Chiropractic here is not the only focus, there are the five essentials:
1. Maximized Mind
2. Maximized Nerve Supply
3. Maximized Nutrition
4. Maximized Exercise
5. Minimized Toxins
In this past year I have changed my life, slowly but changing. I am more aware of what I eat, how I exercise and overall what I do in a day to day basis. One thing we do here is make sure everyone is educated about health. What doctor's place do you ever go to provides you so many workshops and opportunities to learn about your health? Not many.
So now that I'm learning about health I want to spread the word because so many of us are taught to take pills if we ill, surgery if the doctor says so and we think it's a death sentence when a doctor says we will die. That's not the case. I met someone a few weeks ago we had cancer and was told by his doctor that he had no more than 4 months to live. That was a few years ago. What did he do to change his life? Everything. He cleansed his body, he changed how he ate, he exercised more and kept a "I can do it" attitude.
I have seen so many miracles through these doors that I know that this knowledge is valuable. Did you know that headaches more than 6 times a year is an indication that something is wrong? That's what the American Medical journal says. Well then why do so many people suffer from migraines and headaches thinks it's ok? Because it's common and the common symptom is taken care of by drugs which in the end doesn't fix the initial problem. I had headaches almost 4 times a week when I started. Where am I now? Less than once a week and so much more of my life is improving. I don't have as bad of allergies as I used to, I sleep better, I have more energy to do things and my heart doesn't hurt. (A doctor told me that nothing was wrong with my heart when I complained of heart pains).
From a weekly basis at least I will be updating anyone and everyone about the things I learn to improve myself. Hopefully you will be able to take that and improve yourself. Let's live to 100 as healthy as possible together! :) THE POWER IS ON!
