Fix Your Posture, Fix Your Back Pain
I don’t know how many of my patients come in with constant lower back pain to some degree. They’ve tried muscle relaxants, stretching, heating pads, but somehow it always returns. There isn’t anything really wrong with their backs. They didn’t injure themselves in any way, haven’t been over-exercising, or doing heavy house or outdoor work, haven’t been lifting any heavy objects or moving furniture. Yet, they have chronic lower back pain and want to know why.

Decode Your Urine: What its Color Means
Every now and then a patient will tell me that their urine looks “funny” sometimes. When I ask them what they mean by that, they invariably tell me that it seems to change colors. They’re conce ed if these color changes are anything to worry about. Here’s what I tell them: What Color Is Your Urine? Urine can be different colors throughout the day depending on the amount of urochrome, a natural pigment, formed by the breakdown of red blood cells, which is present in urine.r

Your Erectile Dysfunction can be Related to Heart Health
Dear Health-Minded Readers, Some of my over 40 male patients are conce ed about whether or not they may have erectile dysfunction. We go over their symptoms (see below) and often times they do have a classic ED picture. However, when I ask these patients if anyone in their family has had heart disease, they’re frequently baffled at what that has to do with their ED? As I explain, though there are other causes of ED, recent research has shown that a man’s heart health can also be directly related to ED symptoms. Here’s why. Your Heart and Your ED

Healthy PH Levels, Healthy Bones
I encourage my 50-and-older patients to get a bone density test every year. As this test tells me if they’re losing or maintaining their bone density and strength. The pelvis and femur bones of the hips and upper thighs are especially significant as we get older because they support our body walking and standing and, really, with any activity we do. If bones become weak through loss of density, they are at increased risk for serious fractures. Fortunately, there are safe, natural health options for maintaining the strength of your bones.

Your COPD Can Be More Manageable With The Right Diet
I have several patients with COPD and sometimes they have a hard time breathing comfortably, or get fatigued, especially after eating larger or heavier meals. As I tell them, it’s better to eat 4-6 smaller meals a day than 3 heavier ones as eating too much at one time makes much more work for their respiratory system. If you have COPD, here are some other helpful recommendations for choosing the right foods to help you breathe easier. Your Diet Can Help You Breathe Easier

Energy Drinks: Friend or Foe?
Energy drinks are all the rage lately. You can’t go anywhere without finding them…including 7 Eleven stores. And there seems to be an endless variety to choose from. Today I have some pros and cons of these “high-voltage in the can” products. And some serious questions answered about them.

How Overweight Are You? Understanding Your BMI
Recently, one of my patients, I’ll call him Joe, came in somewhat annoyed that a trainer at his gym used a traditional BMI (body mass index) test on him and deemed him overweight for his height. However, on visual inspection, Joe, a male over 40, looks to be quite fit, very muscular, very low body fat, weight trains and does aerobic exercise several times a week. Conversely, I have a patient Helen, an over 50 female, mildly active, with a predominance of abdominal fat yet the BMI says she is within normal range weight for her height.

You Need Sleep To Survive, But How Much Do You Really Need?
I have a retired 64 year-old patient, I’ll call him Bob, who tells me that he never sleeps more than 5-6 hours a night and that he’s always up with the sun, full of energy for his active retiree day and never gets that mid-afte oon sleepy slump. He’s doing well, has no major health conce s, and this amount of sleep seems to be working well for him.
