She Had Arthritis–Check Out What Her Doctor Told Her!

I had a conversation with a nurse today, who told me about one of her friends. This friend was very overweight, crippled with arthritis and had several other health problems. One day her doctor called her and asked her to come to his office that same day. She struggled to get out of bed and dressed. With her severe arthritis, hurrying was not an option. When she arrived, the doctor told her he had just been at a seminar and he thought he had the answer to her arthritis and problems walking—and something to help with other health problems also.

She was excited—wanted to know if it was an injection or a new medicine! Could she get started that same day? The doctor told her she must start walking every day—4 times a day. The woman was dismayed—she was expecting a magical cure. She had great difficulty just getting from her bed to the bathroom. The doctor said—that is fine. Just get someone to help you and walk a short distance inside your house 4 times a day and increase the distance just a little as you are able. The woman followed the doctor’s suggestion and it was slow progress—but progress!!

Today she is the picture of health—has lost weight—other health conditions improved—and she still walks 4 times a day—outside with her dog! My friend saw her recently and said she is beautiful and obviously very happy. She has even started her own business! Her dog seems to have an internal clock because he comes to her and barks 4 times a day for their walk.

We often think we must do big things to get fit and improve our health while just STARTING is the answer.

Keep watching for our blog posts. In a few days you will see an article on Walking With Arthritis that is based on info from Mayo Clinic and the Arthritis Foundation.

Get Help For Arthritis

I have a friend who was furious when AARP sent him an AARP Card in the mail!! He would never tell his age….until he realized there were benefits to getting older like discounts on senior coffee or tea and other discounts with that AARP card.

I have been a little like my friend, Don, too. I have not wanted to admit I have arthritis. I didn’t want to take meds for it and generally I used the old saying—’grin and bear it’. Did not want anyone to think I was getting old!!

But in the last months the aches and pains have been getting progressively worse. My fingers hurt when I bend them—especially at night. The joints are swelling and I can no longer wear some of my rings. One of my knees brings on a sudden pain when I don’t expect it. I got up from my couch last week and found myself walking bent over – had to make myself stand up straight in spite of the pain in my back.

This is my confession. I have arthritis and it is time for me to do something about it. I want to stay active and realize I will certainly look and feel older if I let this pain and stiffness take over. I want to enjoy an active lifestyle.

I know my friend, Bonnie, takes UltaLife Glucosamine so I asked her if it really works for her. Bonnie loves UltalIfe Glucosamine Super Blend and says it makes a huge difference for her. So I checked it out for myself and here is what I found.

Glucosamine is vital for building cartilage which is the flexible, tough connective tissue found in parts of the body. This fine, rubbery tissue functions as padding, a cushion for bones and joints. Glucosamine plays a crucial role in incorporating sulfur into cartilage in order to make and repair it. As people age, glucosamine levels fall. In time, this can lead to joint deterioration.

I also found out why Ultalife Glucosamine Super Blend is the right Glucosamine for me!

*Glucosamine Super Blend helps in creating new building blocks for worn cartilage and painful joints UltaLife has done the heavy lifting for you and put it all together in easy-to-swallow vegetable capsules containing 5 main ingredients that work wonders on your body.

Want to find out more about Glucosamine Super Blend? Check it out. UltaLife is offering a 25% discount for a limited time. That makes a 30 day supply less than 15.00. That is only 50 cents a day.

Use this code in Amazon to receive a 25% discount. JOINTS25

I am ready to give my arthritis pains and stiffness a punch in the face. Let’s do it!!

How Important Are The Kidneys?

Do you ever consider how important your kidneys are to your overall health? Most of us don’t think about our kidneys as long as they are functioning correctly. They are vital organs!! Did you know the kidneys process about 2.2 pints of blood per minute? They filter wastes (up to two quarts) from the blood and send it to the bladder. Their function also helps to regulate your blood pressure and balance acidity and electrolyte levels.

There will be World Kidney Day in March 2018. The purpose of this day to make people more aware of the importance of their kidneys and what they can do to protect them. Let’s start now to make simple changes to protect these vital organs. Hypertension and Diabetes can cause many problems in the body—they are key risk factors for chronic kidney disease. Don’t ignore high blood pressure or diabetes! Stay active, eat healthy, watch your weight and drink plenty of water!

There Are Good Fats?

You want me to eat FATS? Really? In all my years of dieting, I thought I was to avoid fats in order to lose weight? I thought I had to avoid fats to protect my heart and keep my cholesterol down. And now you want me to eat fats?

From my research, the key is knowing which fats are good for us. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s 2005 Dietary Guidelines tell us to get around 10% of our daily calories from fats. The HEALTHY FATS- unsaturated fats which include polyunsaturated fatty acids and monounsaturated fats. Both mono- and polyunsaturated fats. Healthy fats are not packaged processed foods, fried foods, cakes, cookies, etc. which contain saturated or trans fats

So what are some of these Healthy Fats? Continue reading There Are Good Fats?

Do You Have Stiff Achy Joints?

REALLY? Are you still suffering with achy, sore joints, stiffness and swelling? Do you know how important Glucosamine is to your body?

Glucosamine is vital for building cartilage which is the flexible, tough connective tissue found in parts of the body. This fine, rubbery tissue functions as padding, a cushion for bones and joints and also plays a crucial role in incorporating sulfur into cartilage in order to make and repair it. As we age, our glucosamine levels fall…and this could lead to joint deterioration.

Don’t let achy joints rob you of your active lifestyle!

Are You Getting Enough Water?

Water—how much do we need? Our body uses water in all its cells, organs and tissues. I am told that humans can live without food for several days or even weeks, but we can only live a few days without water.

I am not a big water drinker so I checked several sources trying to determine how much water I need and how to get it into my diet. I read that drinking enough fluids is crucial to staying healthy…to maintaining all the functions of our bodies. Also older adults (who might not sense thirst as much as younger people) need to be especially careful to stay hydrated in the summer!

I read another place that we need 30-50 ounces of fluids a day—our body size… how active we are—the heat factor….many things can contribute to determining how much we really need. But I was relieved to see that not all of this had to come from plain water.

Is Eating Salmon Good for Your Heart?

Omega 3 fatty acids are crucial to your health—especially your heart and brain!! Two important ones are EPA and DHA and are found in certain fatty fish. ALA’s are found in certain nuts and seeds. Most of the Omega 3 benefits have been found in EPA and DHA. The best food sources of EPA and DHA are salmon, sardines mackerel, grass fed beef and certain seeds and nuts –these are listed from highest to lowest amounts of Omega 3’s.

Sounds simple, doesn’t it? Just eat those foods—especially the salmon-and you will be fine!!
