Brain Fitness - Part 1



Chronos Apollo
BRAIN FITNESS - part 1 
August 12, 2008
Dear Monty, 

I have been planning this newsletter 'Brain Fitness' for over a month now. As with most; I allowed my life to get in the way and procrastinated.
You know how they say 'things happen for a reason'?
 
Well; the last 2 weeks have been a whirlwind for me; and one of the things that happened, I would like to share with you.
 
FIRST: My patients' Karen and John need your good thoughts.
 
 Please say a small prayer (or ask the Universe) for strength and health for them both.
 
Karen and John's story:
3 weeks ago, they were living life as usual. They have 4 dogs, and 2 horses. They are a loving couple, devoted to each other.
 
2 weeks ago, Karen had symptoms of a stroke.
I know she won't mind me telling you all this: she felt something was wrong for quite a few days before this; BUT DIDN'T WANT TO TELL JOHN, OR ADMIT THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG.
It turns out that Karen had a brain tumor that bled; and she is now paralysed on her left side.
 
(Oh, she walked into the ER with John's help; refusing a wheelchair. He says he is OK with looking like a very bad husband for 'allowing her to walk into the ER'.)
 
She is being a shining example of strength; with smiles and many stories.
When I saw her, I asked her 'How are you'; and she replied, 'Not quite how I thought I would spend my long weekend'. She went on to say that instead of complaining, and bringing everyone around her 'down', she chooses to be happy and make the best of her situation.
 
Why am I telling you all this:
Well, let's look at the obvious.
 
Don't practice denial
Women, in all my 15 years of working in Emergency departments; ALWAYS MINIMISE THEIR PROBLEMS; IGNORE THAT SOMETHING COULD BE WRONG, AND PRESENT LATE.
No matter what is wrong, we wait too long to do anything THAT COMES TO TAKING CARE OF OURSELVES.
And I am as guilty as everyone of you who does the same.
 
So, let's make a pledge today, to be pro-active; and look after ourselves; and seek help at the first sign of something being amiss.
 
Next,
YES. Attitude is everything.
I have been reading a lot on personal development, watched 'The Secret' a second time, am listening to Stephanie Franks ('The Accidental Millionaire - her story of attitude and success; and talks a lot about personal attributes that lead to success -  I believe that health; personal success, financial success, relationship success; and spiritual success all have the same principles/ foundation).
Our mind can really change the outcome of MANY situations.
 
'If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change'.
 
Let's remember the power of our minds.
 
I'm sure there are more appropriate quotes - please send me quotes I can use: Let's collect them for Karen to support her.
I will send all your 'quotable quotes' to her and John.
 
 
*******************************************************
 
BRAIN FITNESS:
 
* When you are under high stress, your cortisol levels elevate. This can contribute to poor memory (that you may only notice when you answer specific questionnaires; or find that you only remember 8 things instead of 14 things without writing it down - point is; you can still be 'highly functioning'; but less high that you used to!)
High cortisol impairs quality of sleep; and sleep deprivation makes your brain more tired and less agile.
 
 
* Reading, and actively engaging your brain in activities like crosswords, word games, mental arithmetic (brain exercises) help maintain brain fitness.
 
* Concussion or head injury increases your risk for Alzheimer's disease 2-fold.
 
* Estrogen is important to prevent Alzheimer's disease in both men and women.
 
Next newsletter will cover more.
 
In the meantime:
MAKE THE TIME
For those of you who have not had a Health Assessment at Chronos Apollo yet:
We are offering a 'Healthy Living' SCREENING service.
(This is different from our usual 2.5 hour intake process).
 
Until August 31, 2008:
Receive a complete blood test evaluation to assess your health situation. I will also request a bone density, mammogram, ultrasound, and screening test for colon cancer.
I will do a complete physical examination (covered by Alberta Health care) on every person who wants to protect their health .
(30 minutes out of your day's activities, and travel time - can you afford NOT to spend this time?)
Once your results are available:
See Dr. Lo ND or Dr. Drobot ND to get onto the path towards Healthy Living.
(another 30 min)
See Dr. Elena for information on lowering your risk for cancer (another 30 -45min)
You will receive a 'report' on our findings.
 
TOTAL TIME AT THE CLINIC: 90-120 MINUTES.
tOTAL OTHER TIME: YOUR TRAVEL TIME.
We have FREE parking, so no excuses.
(Naturopathic Medicine and health/ nutrition counselling are not insured by AHC.
Your investment for this service is $275)
 
Please call now: (403) 237 2353 to book your appointment.
Please ask for the Healthy Living Screening appointment.
 
*********************************************************

THE INCIDENCE OF BRAIN TUMORS IS FAR LESS THAN OTHER CANCERS.
Let's put it in perspective:
- BREAST CANCER:>500 000 deaths per year.
- COLORECTAL CANCER: 665 000 deaths per year.
 
So, let us think of Karen and allow me to use her story to remind every one of you to focus on health; get checked; even if it is time out of your day; or your hectic schedule.
 
* LIFESTYLE
STRESS CAN WEAKEN YOUR IMMUNITY AND DEFENCES.
Remember that you need strong immunity to protect you from cancer cell growth.
STRESS also affects your risk for cancer in the following ways:
- promotes insulin resistance, and this causes certain cancer cells to grow more quickly.
- causes weight gain which is directly implicated in certain cancers eg. colon cancer, endometrial cancer.
 

SMOKING CAUSES TOXIC DAMAGE TO CELLS AND PROMOTES CANCEROUS CHANGES TO CELLS
 Acupuncture and hypnotherapy are helpful in winning at quitting smoking. www.chronosapollo.com/accupuncture.aspx
 
(Remember, it is not 'quitting' but 'GAINING' health.)Exercise can improve your immunity. It promotes healthy circulation and healthy oxygenation of cells.
Yoga is scientifically proven to reduce stress.
 
 
 
* DIET
Anti-oxidants protect your DNA from free radical damage and precancerous change.
High fibre will keep your gut regular and lower your risk of colon cancer
 

 
************************************************************ 
 
 
Thank you for reading my newsletters. I will make the next one 'more meaty' with information and hints. Tonight, it was all about Karen, and John; and what we can learn from their story. And how we, at Chronos Apollo, want to help you stay healthy. Enjoy your loved ones; and your life to the fullest.
 
I see the most amazing stories of love in the Emergency Department; and through the lives of my patients. I am honored and blessed to be allowed the view and inspiration.
To John and Karen: Thank you for sharing your story, your faith and your love for each other; and your strength with me; and with all my readers of this newsletter.
 
Sincerely,
 
Dr. Natasha Iyer

A note from the editor
It's August. Besides thinking about vacations and how much longer we have to put up with mosquitoes, our attention turns to the inevitable: going back to school. Whether you have a child who's going off to college or university, one in high school, or if you are a big kid yourself, it's really important to add healthy credit usage to the list of essential life skills.

Online learning offers many options

Your credit might be in order but is your career? If getting a degree is the only thing standing between you and the job of your dreams, consider online learning. With online education, you're in charge of your schedule.  Some employers reimburse tuition expenses and don't forget—a degree might mean a higher salary! Online learning offers a wider choice of programs and degrees than ever before…you don't have to go off to college to get a great education anymore!

This month's featured article
college student
Back to School: Credit Strategies for College Kids and Adults Alike

This is the time of year your soon-to-be high school
graduate is probably making some decisions about university or college—if not what to study, at least where. For many, it may be the first time away from home, the first time they are forced to pick up after themselves or do their own laundry. It's also a moment when many parents decide to give their child a credit card for the first time, or co-sign for one. You want to make sure your child learns to use credit safely and responsibly. After all, this is the first step on the road toward building a healthy credit score that could someday lead to buying a car or a house. Though it may be hard to imagine your youngster someday buying a house, by covering a few credit basics, you help to ensure he or she starts out on the right path—and perhaps is less likely to make costly mistakes!  

If you know college kids who have time to go shopping, it might mean they're not studying enough! That's where credit cards come in—offering the convenience of online shopping as well as the opportunity to start creating a sound credit history. If you're the one who's paying the bills later, credit cards give you (or the student) a way to track and protect those purchases, as well as financial resources in an emergency. In the last few years, there has been no shortage of sign-up opportunities as credit card companies are a staple on campuses across the country.

A little guidance goes a long way
Beginning credit customers may need guidance; they might not realize that bills not paid in full result in something called "interest charges," and credit is best used as a valued resource, not a way of life (going south for Reading Week doesn't count as an "emergency").

It's easy, when spending "plastic," for youngsters to lose sight of the fact that this is real money which will result in actual bills, especially when you haven't yet had the experience of paying down a credit card balance month after month for purchases you made so long ago you forgot what they were.

Part of learning how to handle credit should also be awareness of cash advance and annual fees. And, just as it would be with any card holder, a comparison between cards based on rates, fees and possible rewards is essential before opening any accounts. Cards that offer rewards such as airline miles, cash back or discounts might be useful for some students—why shouldn't they spend Reading Week somewhere sunny and warm, as long as they're paying for it themselves—provided they're not paying too much to accumulate those "rewards." 

Set a good example
Children always learn, of course, by example, so if your credit use is healthy you've given your students a great model to follow. Remember though, that sometimes mistakes are the best teachers.  So if your child does make some minor
credit slip-ups in the beginning (note emphasis on minor), it's better now, especially while you're still in the picture and the amounts (we hope) are small. Treat it as a learning opportunity.

Ask Audrey
Dear Audrey,

Is it true if I piggyback off my mom's credit that certain credit bureaus will not honor that history?

Thank You,

Rachel D.


Hi Rachel

What you refer to as "piggybacking" is the practice of having a card holder with a good credit history sign someone else to an account as an authorized user so that that person benefits from the card holder's good credit history. The industry has been cracking down on this practice because consumers with lower credit scores were able to pay those with higher scores to add them to their accounts as an authorized user, without actually using the account.

The best way to improve your credit score is still to establish credit, pay bills on time, and not take on too much credit. Find out more about managing your credit health in our Learning Center.

Until next month,

Audrey
