Dallas Bioidentical Hormones Expert, Lisa Gorn, D.O. Discusses IBS & G.I. Health
April is recognized as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) Awareness Month and I wanted to discuss some factors that can negatively impact our G.I. health and increase our risk of developing IBS. Focusing on our diet and reducing stress are the most important things we can do to improve our gut health. The Standard American Diet (SAD) has been linked to a multitude of chronic and deficiency-related illnesses. Processed foods are oftentimes high in trans fats, saturated fats, simple sugars and empty calories and significantly increase the risk for diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Also, when we eat is just as important as what we eat. Regular mealtimes help regulate digestion. Relaxing and taking the time to chew our food thoroughly not only aids in digestion, but helps us utilize more nutrients. In addition to the foods that we eat, stress also plays a large role in our overall gut health. Chronic stress causes the intestinal muscles to contract and eventually the contractions can cause symptoms commonly associated with IBS, such as abdominal pain and discomfort, constipation, diarrhea and bloating.

Philadelphia Bioidentical Hormones Expert, Kenneth Varano, D.O. Discusses Stress and Cortisol
A "go-getter" attitude may have a negative impact on your health...
Would you consider yourself a “go-getter” in life? A recent article published on Telegraph.co.uk warns that go-getters and high-fliers have a higher risk of “hostility-related heart attacks” and a wide range of other cardiovascular-related health challenges. Psychologists classify these ambitious behaviors under the title, Type A personality. Although Type A personalities are a perfect fit for fast-paced, high level corporate positions, there’s a payoff to the prestige in the long run. Chronic stress leads to the overproduction of “stress hormone” known as cortisol, and oftentimes causes a wide variety of health complications, ranging from adrenal fatigue to cardiovascular disease.

Milwaukee Bioidentical Hormones Expert, Kenneth Raskin, M.D. Explains How Watching Too Much T.V. Can Shorten Life Span
According to a recent article published on HealthKey.com, watching too much television can shorten our longevity. Studies have indicated that watching too much television can increase the risk of obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.
According to Dr. Prediman K. Shah, director of the cardiology division of the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute, the more we’re inactive, the more we jeopardize our long-term health.
When we’re watching TV, we’re not using our muscles. Muscle contraction helps the body break down glucose to use as energy and when the glucose isn’t broken down properly, insulin resistance can occur, oftentimes leading to the onset of type II diabetes.
