I was at my doctor for a check-up today telling him all about my exiting new diet and exercise efforts. He gave me two great tips and I gave him one:
1. Too much good may be bad for you – people obsessed with major workouts and running miles and miles a week can actually damage themselves and don’t typically live as long as those that just do a lot of walking – think 10,000 Steps; people worried about salt often deprive themselves of a much needed nutrient; people who try to live on healthy diets they don’t actually like, often deprive themselves of a well balanced diet and, more important, pleasure.
2. Western medicine is focused heavily on detection versus Eastern medicine on prevention – we should focus on both. If more people took up yoga and meditation their state of mind, happiness, stress and overall health would likely be much better.
3. My tip: take a look at this amazing video on the power of pure coconut oil in potentially mitigating Alzheimer’s plus other benefits. See link at: http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/healthscience/2012/January/Coconut-Oil-Touted-as-Alzheimers-Remedy/
