5 Steps to Optimal Health
Murray Middlemost

The first step a program is Healthy Nutrition and there are ten basic rules:

1. Never skip a meal again (keep the calorie burning furnace burning)
2. Eat real, unprocessed foods (if man made it do not eat it)
3. Eat balanced meals (protein, fat, and carbs in every meal)
4. Choose a protein as the main nutrient in your meal
5. Add some healthy fats (avocado, nuts, seeds, cold water fish, and olive oil)
6. Add real carbohydrates (whole grains)
7. Add non-starchy vegetables (green and brightly coloured)
8. Eat snacks (keep the calorie burning furnace burning)
9. Eat solid food (fiber)
10.Drink enough water(body weight x .7 = no. of ounces to drink)

The second step of the program is Stress Management:

1. Make downtime a daily practice (you are important)
2. Put your life in perspective (don’t sweat the small stuff)
3. Keep track of stress signals (heart rate increase, blood pressure, anxiety, yelling)
4. Get enough sleep (6-8hours)

Third, avoid all toxic chemicals including:

1. Nicotine
2. Alcohol
3. Refined sugar
4. Artificial sweeteners
5. Illegal drugs
6. MSG, additives & preservatives
7. Fake fats and fat blockers
8. Caffeine
9. Certain prescription drugs

Announcement
School's out so it's time to have some fun! During the month of June, we will have a drawing for patients that are seen in the office. The prize is two tickets to go to Breakout Lawrence on Mass Street. I have been to the Breakout room in Kansas City (and no we didn't get out in the hour allowed) but it was fun. If you have done it in KC, this is the same company that does it here. The website to learn more about it is www.breakoutlawrence.com.

Also, please note that the office will be closed on June 21-26 and we'll be back to regular hours on June 27.
Happy Summer!!!
