In the past I’ve written that solutions for health must be
multi-dimensional. It’s the same with
preventing these disease states – you must do all the right things. This is the very reason we brought the 8
Weeks to Wellness program to our office.
This program was designed specifically to address all the risk factors
of Metabolic Syndrome. The specific type
of exercise and low glycemic diet address the increased blood glucose, waist
measurement, and B.M.I. or obesity.
Stress reduction strategies are implemented along with the diet and
exercise to help lower the blood pressure, elevated triglycerides and
cholesterol. The diet, omega 3 fatty
acids from fish oil and increased lean muscle from exercise will all act to
increase HDL (good cholesterol) levels.
Chiropractic and massage are necessary to restore structural balance and
function as well as to reduce the aches and pains that often prevent people
from doing these strategies on their own.
Believe it or not, eliminating the risk factors of Metabolic
Syndrome and reducing the risk of al the associated diseases is this
simple. In our 8 Weeks to Wellness
program, we see results routinely. In
fact, the latest research shows that appropriate lifestyle changes such as
diet, exercise, and stress reduction are much more effective at addressing
these risk factors than conventional prescription medications. It’s really just common sense. Metabolic Syndrome is a lifestyle syndrome
that develops as a result of poor choices over time. The only reasonable way to reverse this
process is by learning to make the right choices consistently over time. If you’re interested in learning more, please
call our office to schedule an appointment or join us for our Dinner with the
Doc on November 6th (find details in the link below) regarding all
these strategies.
