  • S2 Ep107: Mobility is Life Part II
    Oct 19 2024

    Many people ask why does my knee or hip hurt and the x-ray looks better than my spouse's x-ray who has more arthritis yet is more active than I am... Here is the key, with exercise we polish the joint so that it is a smooth surface, hence smoother ease of movement. Arthritis can come for many reasons, time, ageing, trauma, inflammatory illnesses caused by autoimmune illnesses and more. Then there is osteoporosis, bone is not being made faster than the breakdown of the bone causing thinning of the bone. To help you have a mobility and maintain mobility movement is key!

  • S2 Ep106: Exercise and Osteoporosis Prevention: Mobility is Life
    Sep 24 2024
    Welcome back to the Every Day Health Hacker channel, today we will be discussing Mobility is Life with special guest. Kelly Spencer, owner of Silver Fitness. Many patients ask what type of exercise and how to get started on a wellness journey to prevent osteoporosis. The earlier the better, we always encourage. As we become mature in our life and our bones, we can loose muscle tone and loose bone strength, as our bones start to decrease the amount of new bone created our old bone literally sticks around. You have heard on our previous videos, that many treatments today for osteoporosis will just keep old bone around which can cause fracture, loss of teeth, many individuals even loose the dental implants they have had placed. Our bones are truly the foundation of our strength and to be able to lift up our arms to the top shelf of a counter, or step up stairs, we want to be able to do so comfortably with steadiness and strength.

  • S2 Ep105: Outdated and Expired Medications: Are they safe to take?
    Jul 16 2024
    Outdated or Expired Medications are always a question at the doctor's office, especially when a patient is on a weekend outing away from major retail stores, they ask can this medication "still" be taken? It's a great question! Many studies have shown that tablets and capsules even 10 years are greater than 88% effective. Longer shelf lives of medications sitting in your cabinets loose their potency and efficacy.
    A Law was passed in 1979 for pharmaceutical drug manufactures to require a date to 'guarantee' full potency and safety. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov (Drug expiry debate:the myth and the reality- PMC)

    The Shelf Life Extension Program (SLEP) was started by the FDA for the Department of Defense to order to help cut costs https://www.fda.gov/emergency-preparedness-and-response/mcm-legal-regulatory-and-policy-framework/expiration-dating-extension
    SLEP is used in order for preparedness for our military and natural disasters like earthquakes, viral outbreaks, hurricanes, tornados and more. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) oversees the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS). In helping to prepare for natural emergencies it is also what brings Emergency Use guidelines, we all remember that from COVID.

    Please send me a comment on your thoughts of Emergency Use Guidelines, stockpiles for emergencies and the shortages of medications many Americans are experiencing now. Would love to have your opinion. Please like, comment and ask a friend to Subscribe!
