Hi Friends!
Here's Part 1 of your free mini-course called
"The 5 Secrets To A Healthy Lifestyle".
******************************************************8
Secret #1: Stay Active
Activity is key to staying healthy and getting the
most from your body and life.
Activity causes your body's internal systems to stay "oiled and greased". Did you ever have an old vehicle sitting around. Maybe an old car or pick up that just sat in your driveway for a while.
Did you ever see what happens to that vehicle when it's inactive? It rots away! Sometimes fails to start and after a while, fails to work at all.
Airplane engineers estimate that an airplane will degenerate twice as fast if it's not used and sits on the ground. However, when it's used consistently, it stays healthy and has a much longer life expectancy.
Chiropractic care keeps body systems flowing and operable, but you must send the message to your body also with regular physical activity.
Our body is designed to atrophy with lack of use.
This means that it's designed to go away and disintegrate without use.
For instance, if you were to tie your arm to your side and not use it, after a few weeks it would atrophy and start to "go away."
Believe it or not, eventually that arm would become totally useless!
Your whole body works the same way.
Start by doing something everyday that constitutes activity. Maybe go for a walk around the block, swim, or walk the stairs instead of taking the elevator. Start doing something and not only become healthier and more physically able, but you'll also see a
surge in energy that will motivate you to keep going!
Our next Secret is something you're going to have a love-hate relationship with, yet it's very important!
Until next time!

This Exciting Thing Called Life! - Free 5 Part Mini-Course
I've created a Free mini-course called "The 5 Secrets To A Healthy Lifestyle".
Tomorrow morning I will be posting Part 1, so be looking for it!
The introduction is below. It's loaded with tips to help you stay focused on feeling your best and taking care of yourself so you don't miss one bit of this exciting thing called life!!!
Hope you enjoy!
INTRODUCTION TO "THE 5 SECRETS TO A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE"
Welcome to this 5 part mini-course!
Although this is the introduction, I want to give you a practical tid bit that you can apply right now to your life and start benefiting immediately from this mini-course.
Tid Bit #1: Living a healthy lifestyle starts with awareness!
That's right, you must be aware! Awareness starts by understanding this important truth in order to live a healthy lifestyle:
"Your body is like a boat. If a hole develops in the front part of the boat, the whole ship is going to be affected"! - The whole ship will sink, you can't sink just part of a ship!
So what does this have to do with awareness? Good question!
Your body has many different sections and systems that are "built in".
When one of these "systems" are affected or misaligned it can affect dozens (even hundreds) of different parts of the body.
There is something called "nerve interference" that can cause anything from headaches to ear aches to irritability. BE AWARE! Start to take notice.
When you start feeling symptoms such as Headaches, Lower Back Pain, Mid and Upper Back Pain, Neck Pain, Asthma, Neuritis, Sinus Trouble, Digestive Problems, Nervousness, Shoulder or Arm Pain, Leg Pain, Sciatica, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Dizziness, Joint Stiffness, Muscle Spasms, Numbness and Tingling, Low Energy and even Stress...... this is your body's way of telling you that there's a hole somewhere in the ship, and if you don't fix it, it's going to get worse and eventually sink the entire ship!
When you experience these symptoms, the first step is to rule out nerve interference.
Chances are, the nerves are being disrupted and with a little adjustment, your body then can start to use it's built in systems to heal the problem naturally!
Remember to be smart and be aware! Don't be fooled by symptoms!
Check back in a few days for Part 1!

Still Smoking? I Wish You Wouldn't....
Everyday, I pass people in their cars, windows rolled up because it's freezing. And what do they have in their hand? A lit cigarette. I get it, everyone has a vice but smoking is so incredibly destructive to your health, not only for your lungs but your spine!
In a publication of SpineLine, Dr. Paul Slozar, Dr. Richard Perkins, and Dr. Derek Snook presented data studies that link smoking to osteoporosis and compression fractures, back pain, disc disease and wound healing problems. Tobacco use has been shown to cause increased non- union rates and failures in spinal fusion surgery.
While smoking is highly publicized as a cancer causing agent little has been said linking smoking to spine health. We all should know that cigarette smoking can cause increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, and poor circulation but specifically for your spine health, the overall effect of cigarette smoking decreases the ability of the blood to carry oxygen. Do you know what happens when the brain doesn’t get oxygen? You have a stroke or heart attack. A portion of the heart or brain tissue ‘dies’ and Cigarette smoking produces a similar effect in the spine.
You don’t hear much about this side effect of smoking. In plain language, cigarette smoking decreases the ability of the blood vessels to carry nutrients to living tissue (bone and disc). Long term, this damage has devastating effects on bone physiology, wound healing and disc nutrition. The spine is my business. Help me help you! :)

Tips To Avoid Shoveling Injuries
Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky residents will be shoveling out from the latest winter storm, and if they are feeling it in the form of strained muscles they are not alone. More than half of snow shoveling injuries are musculoskeletal, according to a study published in the American Journal of Emergency Medicine. The study analyzed snow shoveling injuries treated in US emergency rooms between 1990 and 2006.
Types of shoveling injuries:
67% of injuries occurred in men, followed by children under 18, who suffered 15% of injuries. In addition to musculoskeletal injuries, patients suffered from slips and being struck by a shovel. 7% of injuries were heart related, and all those who died suffered from a cardiac event.
How to avoid injury when shoveling this winter:
Researchers pointed to the design of the common shovel, stating that it is not an ergonomic tool and its design has remained stagnant for over a century. Shovelers should warm up, shovel small amounts of snow, pay attention to their form, take frequent breaks, and stay hydrated.
This might sound ridiculous to some, but one of the main causes of back pain and back injury is doing something as simple as shoveling snow the wrong way. Many people who never exercise and wouldn’t consider lifting weights go out and shovel thousands of pounds of snow numerous times each winter.
Shoveling snow is both an aerobic exercise and weight lifting exercise being done at the same time. The constant motion is the equivalent of walking on a treadmill or riding an exercise bike, and the lifting of the heavy snow is every bit the equal of lifting weights. Being done by people who wouldn’t even consider doing these exercises.
How Much Weight Are You Shoveling?
How many pounds you are lifting when you shovel snow will depend on the type of snow, depth of the snow, water amount in the snow and the amount of sidewalk and driveway you have to clear. Light fluffy snow might weigh as little as 5 pounds per cubic foot. Compacted snow can weigh 20 pounds per cubic foot. Heavy wet snow can weigh even more and feel like you are shoveling wet cement.
The amount of water can be stated as a percentage. According to the National Snow and Ice Data center, the average snow in the US is between .04 and .10 percent of water per inch. The fluffy powder snow is between .01 and .05 while the heavy wet snows can be .40 and higher. You can calculate how much weight you lift shoveling snow.
If you have a double car driveway, it can be 800 square feet (40’ x 20’). The weight of a cubic foot of water is 62.418 pounds. You have to convert inches to feet. So 6” = .5 of a foot (6/12 = .5). We will use 10% (.10) amount of water in this snowfall.
Cubic feet of snow = square foot of driveway (800) x the amount of snow (.5 of a foot) = 400 cubic feet of snow.
Multiply the amount of water in the snow (.10) x 62.418 = 6.242 pounds of snow per cubic feet of snow.
Multiply the weight of this cubic foot of snow (6.242) by the cubic feet of snow you will be shoveling (400 cubic feet). 6.242 x 400 = 2,947 pounds of snow on the driveway you will be lifting and shoveling [1].
It helps to shovel a couple of times during a storm instead of shoveling a foot or more of snow at the end of the storm, since freshly fallen snow will weigh less than compacted snow.
Proper Ways to Shovel Snow:
That is a lot of weight to lift in a short time and a lot of stress on your back and your body. Shoveling snow is equal to a hard workout so you should stretch before you shovel snow. Do stretches of the lower back, arms, legs, hamstrings and shoulder muscles.
When you shovel, keep your back straight and bend your knees. Your knees should be shoulder width apart. Bend at the knees and straighten your knees when you lift. Lift with the legs and not your back. It is best if you don’t twist and throw the snow, if possible try and place the snow where you want it or throw it forward. Space your hands apart; this will give you better leverage lifting the snow. Twisting while holding the weight of the snow can hurt your back. If you want to throw the snow, don’t load up the shovel with a ton of snow. Take smaller scoops of snow. Take breaks and catch your breath occasionally. If you feel any kind of pain, stop shoveling.
The Snow Shovel:
A lightweight shovel will weigh less than an old metal one, and the snow is already heavy enough. The shovel should be about chest high. If the shovel is too short, you end up bending too much. If the shovel is too long, that causes the snow to actually weigh more and the lifting that much harder, not only hurting your back, but also your wrist and forearms.
If you’re going to buy a new shovel, look for one that is the bent staff or ergonomic type (like the Back-Saver® from Life With Ease). The bent handle type of shovels prevents back pain and strain by allowing you to bend less while shoveling. Most people say that this type of shovel prevents the soreness in their backs after shoveling snow.

Financial Spinal Stress
Ever woken up in the middle of the night wondering how you were going to pay the bills? Then you know that a car payment or the electric bill can affect your health!
There are three types of stress: physical, emotional and chemical. Financial worries (and other anxieties) fall into the emotional stress category. And chiropractic can be helpful.
All three types of stress affect your nervous system. Like a chain that breaks at its weakest link, stress tends to show up where we are most vulnerable. Our neck. Our low back. Tightness between our shoulders. Stress can increase the frequency of headaches and compromise our ability to get enough restful sleep.
Chiropractic care, with its purpose of reducing neurological stress, can be helpful. Of course chiropractic care can't eliminate stress, but it can sure improve your ability to tolerate it. Regular chiropractic care now could be a wise investment for a healthier, happier and financially secure you! www.NKYChiropractor.com (859) 331-9566

Side Effects of Tylenol PM
Side effects of Tylenol PM
by Nicole Evans M.D.
Tylenol PM is a popular over-the-counter medication. The labeled indicated use for Tylenol PM is for the relief of insomnia that is accompanied by minor pain.
The two active ingredients in Tylenol PM are Acetaminophen (Tylenol) and Diphenhydramine (Benadryl). The acetaminophen provides pain relief while the diphenhydramine induces sleepiness. The side effects of Tylenol PM can result from either or both of these medicinally active agents.
The side effects of Tylenol PM that result from the acetaminophen component can affect the skin, liver, kidneys, blood and even the endocrine system. The frequency of these Tylenol side effects is not defined but include: rash, anemia, low neutrophil count, low leukocyte count and pancytopenia (low white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets).
Tylenol PM use can also result in increased bilirubin and/or alkaline phosphatase levels, high ammonia levels, kidney damage with chronic high doses of Tylenol and increased blood sugar levels.
Perhaps the most important potential adverse effect of Tylenol PM is liver toxicity. An acute overdose of Tylenol PM can result in liver failure and death. The dose of acetaminophen should never be more than 4 grams a day.
In addition, chronic daily dosing in adults has resulted in liver damage in some people. It is known that consuming 3 or more alcoholic drinks a day may increase the risk of liver damage from Tylenol.
Additionally, individuals with the inherited condition known as G6PD deficiency should use caution when taking medications that contain acetaminophen.
The other active ingredient in Tylenol PM, diphenhydramine, is commonly known as Benadryl. Benadryl is a first-generation antihistamine that is quite sedating, unlike the later generation antihistamines such as Zyrtec and Claritin.
Common side effects of Benadryl include sedation, sleepiness, dizziness, difficulty performing coordinated movements, epigastric distress (stomach ache), and thickening of mucus secretions from the respiratory tract.
Importantly, when giving Benadryl to children by mouth and using a concomitant topical preparation that contains Benadryl there is a risk of diphenhydramine toxicity. The symptoms of Benadryl toxicity include: dilated pupils, flushed face, hallucinations, ataxic gait, and urinary retention.
In children, there is also the risk of diminished mental alertness, as well as risk of a paradoxical reaction that may cause excitation in young pediatric patients.
There are certain medical conditions that require a patient consult their physician before self-treating with over-the-counter Benadryl preparations. These conditions include glaucoma, emphysema, chronic bronchitis, or difficulty urinating due to prostatic hypertrophy.
Tylenol PM is a commonly used over-the-counter medication that is associated with numerous side effects. For safety, individuals should always discuss the use of Tylenol PM with their healthcare provider.

Real Housewives of Atlanta Use the Zerona!
Real Housewives of Atlanta Use Zerona Non-Surgical Fat Reduction
Get rid of belly fat with this surgery free liposuction alternative.
It's no secret that many of the Real Housewives turn to their plastic surgeon for a little work now and then, and the ladies of Atlanta are no exception. Earlier this season, Nene Leakes went under the knife for rhinoplasty, liposuction, breast reduction and a breast lift. On last night's episode, Kim Zolciak opted to avoid the operating room and went under the laser for Zerona, the popular non-surgical fat reducing treatment.
Zerona treatments are simple. Patients lie under rotating low level laser lights for 40 minutes, spending 20 minutes each on their stomach and then their back. A treatment cycle is 6 sessions spread over two weeks, and within a couple of weeks patients can expect to see around 3.5 total inches lost.
Earlier this year, the Zerona device received FDA market clearance in the U.S. for circumferential reduction of the waist, hips, and thighs. It works by opening a small pore in the fat cells causing them to empty their contents. The fat is flushed out of the body naturally, but patients are encouraged to drink the proper amount of water to help aid the process. Zerona has a systemic effect, meaning that inches are lost all over the body rather than in one specific area so it's not the precise sculpting of liposuction procedures.
One benefit of the treatment that patients love is there is zero downtime. Patients can go back to their normal activities immediately and it's pain free. In the clinical investigation, those treated lost an average of 3.65 inches total across their waist, hips, and thighs in as little as two weeks.
Many doctors offer lymphatic massage along with Zerona to aid in flushing out the fat and patients are encouraged to exercise and eat a healthy diet to help improve their results. It's important to remember that Zerona is best used with patients who are generally healthy and only have a little bit of fat to lose. Zerona is not considered a weight loss program. Those looking for more dramatic results may be better served by laser lipo with a device like SmartLipo or ultrasound assisted lipo with Vaser. Talk with your doctor about what results you can expect from Zerona and what the best course of treatment is for your desired outcome.
How much does Zerona cost? The price varies by region, but you can typically expect to pay between $1800 and $3000 for a 2 week session. Some patients find an additional benefit from a second round and often physicians offer a price break for the next treatment course. Many offices are offering holiday specials this time of year so it could be a great time to find a deal.
The Zerona LipoLaser is available at the Advanced Wellness Studio located on Buttermilk Pike in Northern Kentucky (a suburb of Cincinnati).
The Advanced Wellness Studio is offering a Free Zerona Program Contest (valued at over $1500)! Visit www.AdvancedWellnessStudio.com to enter!
