10 a.m. at Tempe Sunflower (McClintock & Southern)

12 p.m. at Scottsdale Sunflower (Miller & Camelback)

2. Chocolate and Blood Pressure

Mild high blood pressure, or hypertension, was decreased by a little dark chocolate, 5 points systolic, and 2 points diastolic. Polyphenols in dark chocolate (and in red wine) were considered responsible. Journal of American Medical Association, Aug 2003.

Choose healthy dark chocolates with high cocoa and minimal ingredients. I prefer dark Ghirardelli 60% and up.

3. Hidden Costs of Obesity

Obesity is a major factor of airline cost increases in the last 10-20 years. In the '90s, passenger weight increased on average 10 pounds. The fuel required to keep this extra weight aloft cost airlines $275 million in 2000. The extra 350 million gallons of fuel burned released 3.8 million additional tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. CDC, Nov 2004.

Fly safely by stretching before, during, and after flights to prevent deep vein thrombosis, stiffness, and pain. Avoid gaining weight during holiday season by increasing your exercise and watching your portions. Most of all skip the daily sweets.

The Economy = Prosperity?

Would you say that you are prosperous right now? What do you think of to answer this question? Most think of their ailing portfolios, job security, and mortgage payments, but what about your health! Remember that your #1 investment is YOURSELF!

Taking care of yourself saves you money. Prevention costs little be it a quality multi-vitamin, well check chiropractic appointment, or even a walk around the block. Taking care of problems as they begin can also save you money.

Increase your health by quitting smoking- the money you'll save may equal a mortgage payment! Join our weight loss program. You may find that reducing your weight decreases your need for high blood pressure, diabetes, and over the counter medications- saving your health care dollars! Eat fresh fruits and veggies and bring your lunch to work. This will increase your nutrients and decrease your fast food and restaurant spending.

There are so many ways to save money and increase your health! The stock market may go up and down but your individual prosperity can be sky high!

Don't procrastinate... call today and schedule an appointment to come in!

Nutrition to Vertebral Discs

Chiropractic adjustments help maintain proper spinal MOTION and one main benefit is proper NUTRITIONAL flow to and from the discs of your spine. Nutrients suspended in fluid (made from water) surround your spine and help maintain proper disc height. These discs act as SHOCK ABSORBERS. Without proper motion, the disc material does not get oxygen, glucose (healthy sugar), and other required nutrients. The lack of proper nutrient flow is the beginning of the decay process of the spine. This decay causes arthritis, osteoporosis, nerve damage, and tissue damage. Maximize your health with chiropractic care!

BPA: Bisphenol A

Living Healthy!
BPA: Bisphenol A
I've seen BPA pop up on the major TV networks. This is not a new problem, just a new news story. BPA makes plastics soft and is used in many of our commercial products such as baby bottles, water bottles, DVDs, and most of our household containers. It's use has been banned or regulated in most European countries because BPA leaks into the containers contents. It’s heightened by heating the plastic or putting hot or acidic contents into the plastic. BPA plastics are sometimes marked with the non-recyclable 7 symbol. This week’s study showed 93% of people contain traces of BPA. Those persons with the highest levels had twice the risk of heart disease and diabetes.

Buy BPA free products, especially those for babies. Use glass containers for left-over and to-go food. Don’t heat food with plastic wrap or in plastic containers. Exercise and healthy eating along with hydration and multi-vitamin & multi-mineral supplementation help fight the negative effects of these and other toxins. Talk to Dr. Kuty about a specific health program to detoxify and increase your health potential.

Amazing Shoes!

Today's society is extremely high fashion and style conscious but looking your best may not always be the best thing for you. Runway models have perfected the "walk" but for most of us, popular shoes can create foot, leg, back, and neck problems.

High heels alter the balanced position of the body and change the weight distribution in the foot. This increases the normal forward curve of the back and neck and causes the pelvis to tip forward. This encourages your hamstrings to shorten. And, these imbalances increase your chances of toe problems, heel and foot pain, and bunions.

I recommend looking for a shoe with a supportive sole that has some give. A good arch support helps too. Your toes are not symmetric so look for a wide toe box with space for all your toes. And last, look for a heel support in back and strap support across the ankle. Following these tips, you can be fashion forward and health smart.

Did you know that we work on foot problems in our office? We adjust the bones in the feet to help alignment and have many techniques to work on the muscles and other tissues in the foot. Many of our patients have been helped with foot pain, plantar fascitis, and foot neuropathies.
