As we roll into this evening’s Super Bowl I read a couple great messages from colleagues. I reflect on the NFL’s GOAT, Tom Brady:

First, Dr. Margolies wrote an amazing email and I wanted to share his message:
“Today is Super Bowl Sunday and Tom Brady, the 43 year old quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will prove that age is as limited as your mind. He is the oldest quarterback to play in the Super Bowl. Today is his 10th Super Bowl. He’s been in 18% of every Super Bowl! He has already won 6 of the previous 9 he has been in.

Many NFL fans disliked him continually winning with his former team New England Patriots. After last season he

made a move to Tampa Bay and he took with him his winning attitude, work ethic and leadership navigating Tampa, a team that last played in the Super Bowl back in 2003, to the Super Bowl this Sunday after beating three strong competitive teams with their superstar quarterbacks to get to the party.

We are a product of choices and Brady never looks back just ahead. He takes care of his body and mind with a special diet and physical and mental regime. Granted he has a personal chef and can afford whatever he needs to succeed but many like him never reach their goals as he has. Message to take away, don’t let age get the better of you, strive to keep your mind and body sharp and win your own Super Bowl.”

Another colleague, Dr. Jeff Roistacher writes, “If you don’t respect the greatest of this man than you are simply a hater. His entire day revolves around his fitness, preparation and family. It’s not an accident on why his body continues to function for him.
How would your body function if you put even 10% of the effort he does?
Think about this.. 92% of the cause of Cancer, Diabetes and Heart disease are your diet and lifestyle!! It’s not your genetics or bad luck.
I don’t understand why YOU don’t take your health seriously BEFORE you become sick. Do you think the MD’s will save you by giving you meds to mask your horrendous lifestyle?”

I have been in practice over 22 years and will be 50 this year. I value and make my health a priority. Around 10 years ago I had a patient come in who was 25 years old and he said, where’s the doctor? I responded by saying, “right in front of you” and introduced myself. He says, “What? Did you start when you were 14?” I asked, “What do you mean?” and he then says, “You can’t be much older than me.” When I told him I was turning 40, he asks me, “What’s your secret?”

I told the patient that I work out 4 days per week, do my daily spinal hygiene stretching, take my multi vitamin with omegas, antioxidants, minerals and telomere support, get adjusted 1 to 2 times per month and do a 11 day nutritional cleanse program 4 times a year. When I told him this, he says, “THAT’S NO WAY TO LIVE!”
Really? I was holding in my laugh and responded, “well that’s why you feel and look like that at 25 and I look like this at 40.”

Turn the clocks forward 10 years, he returned to the practice after 9 years being away and when he sees me, he says, “Wow, you don’t look a day older than you did last time I saw you.” I said, “I am still living the same healthy lifestyle I always have.” He just laughed and continued on with the visit.

We all have a choice. If you are sick and tired of looking and feeling sick and tired, then it’s time for a change. It’s time to make your health a priority! Health is a responsibility. Are you ready? If not now, then when?

My goal is to help as many people as possible to make this shift in lifestyle and turn health around. You know what the definition of insanity is? Doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results.

I have programs and systems for anybody to follow, but you have to want it! Feel free to message me or discuss further on your next visit.

Do you know one particular drink can improve your health?

One of the things I am fascinated by is how incurious the average patient is in finding the cause of their health problems. Most patients just chase one symptoms after another by just popping one medication after another.

For instance, I have this book, Water Cures by Dr. Fereydoon Batmanghelidj. M.D. Dr. Fereydoon was in a prisoner of war camp and he discovered that WATER cured most diseases.

This doctor cites in his book that most people aren’t sick, but rather dehydrated – and backs it up with all sorts of scientific reasoning, examples, etc.

So I find that book interesting, informative, and cutting edge. I try to educate each and every patient how important being hydrated is in not only being healthy but in helping get rid of the pain as quickly as possible while allowing the body to heal. I’m always amazed at how there is a lack of interest in taking on this one simple thing to help feel better and be more healthy. Many people are sick, their kids or spouse is sick and yet they show no interest.

Isn’t that unbelievable? We won’t do one simple thing to improve our lives and health, but will consume one detrimental product after another that brings our health down. From soda, to coffee and other products that actually dehydrate you. I guess we’re all guilty of this one way or another, but if you are sick and tired of being sick and tired, this is one of the most simple ways to start improving your health.

I know one man’s son who got sick from dehydration a couple of weeks ago. He gave his son lots of pH water and his son’s stomach cramps disappeared. If you feel tired, fatigued, achy, stiff, suffering with any condition, isn’t it at least worth asking, “Will pH water help me?”

”Water is the most neglected nutrient in your diet, but one of the most vital” Julia Child

Water plays a vital role in how cells talk to each other to orchestrate full body movement, overall health and well being. Water is the drink can improve your health!

You should be drinking half your body weight in ounces of water. So if you weigh 200 pounds, you should be drinking 100 ounces of water, every day! Problem is most people drink caffeinated products and some studies show that just one 8 ounce cup of coffee negates 4 to 8 glasses of water.

I challenge you for the next month to drink the proper amount of water and tell me how much better you feel in such a short amount of time.
