Benign prostate enlargement and scalp hair loss are quite common among middle-aged males. The problems are known to come from the same origin, dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Scientists in Australia found that men with bald spots at the top of their heads were 1.5 times more likely to have prostate cancer than those without bald spots. The association was particularly strong for men who were diagnosed with high-grade prostate cancer at 60–69 years of age. In contrast, there was no link between a receding front hairline and cancer.
Resolve Your Diabetic Condition
It has been proven that type 2 and pre-diabetes is a metabolic issue caused by lifestyle. It has also been proven that a dietary correction will halt, reverse, and even eliminate this chronic health issue. This correction is based on ancestral science. What food groups did your ancestors consume during evolution? Your genes expect a similar diet. Having blood sugar test strips allows you to measure how a dietary correction is working. Prefer to ‘manage’ diabetes while your health continues to decline OR are you willing to make a dietary correction and allow your body to heal?

Working to Live or Living to Work?
Many of us are addicted to the feeling of productivity, efficiency, and accomplishment. Creating lists and stroking them off rarely stopping, constantly doing, over-compensating, chasing the need to be needed, and by doing so, over-riding our energy and wellbeing. Striving to feel accomplished and good enough! The funny thing is…there will always be more work to be had, more needs to be filled, and getting ahead doesn’t really exist. Curious…what would happen if we begin working to live? No longer superseding our needs and desires, setting firm boundaries around our work schedules and hours, not letting our cell phones and texts interrupt or run us in the present moment, unplugging each day and listening to the rhythm of our bodies and soul’s desire… slowing down, welcoming in a new pace and place to honour laughter and the joy of being.

Beat Illness with Naturopathic Approaches
1. Hydrate. Water, water with lemon or frozen fruit, caffeine-free herbal teas, and soups.
2. Eat lots of fruits and veggies, healthy fats and adequate protein, fibre, and minimal simple sugars.
3. Get enough sleep so healing can occur.
4. Practice good hygiene through frequent hand washing, and for sinuses, use a Neti pot.
5. Get moderate to vigorous exercise 30-60 minutes a day.
6. Sweat. Go to a sauna or have a bath with Epsom salts.
7. Meditate. Use breathing exercises to relax the mind and decrease cortisol that contributes to the stress response.
8. Practice self-care to manage stress through dancing, yoga, or time spent with loved ones.
9. Use supplements to boost the immune system if your lifestyle isn’t as healthy as it should be.
Make Dentures a Priority
We all want to be healthy; however, many disregard their oral cavity and teeth (whether real or false). We forget that the body is a holistic and interconnected system; one that can only function optimally if everything runs smoothly. Old or ill-fitting dentures can cause an array of health issues. From headaches, digestive problems, and temporomandibular joint pain (TMJ) to hearing loss. It’s imperative to see the right specialist for any health issues. When it comes to dentures, that specialist is a denturist. We at Anna’s Denture Clinic believe in this so strongly that we offer free oral exams to ensure your optimal oral health.
Smoking & Your Life Insurance Policy
If you smoke and are looking to buy life insurance in Canada, you can expect to pay a much higher premium than a non-smoker does. On term policies, the premiums can be more than double, and on permanent plans, the difference in rates is less pronounced. The insurance definition of a smoker is a male or female who uses nicotine, including cigarettes, cigars, chewing tobacco, a nicotine patch, or nicotine gum. Remember that to qualify for preferred rates, the insurance company can look back up to 12 months. Rates can be up to double for smokers on term plans, but only about 25% higher on permanent plans.

The Power of Touch
Did you know that massage not only helps us relax, but it also gives our immune system a boost? Any type of touch can reduce the heart rate, lower chances for depression, and lower blood pressure. Receiving a 45-minute massage has been found to increase the number of white blood cells that help defend the body from disease. Do you suffer from sleep problems? When a body receives massage, it instantly gets relaxed and the stress level in the body is reduced. Furthermore, 60 minutes of massage have the same effect on your body as 7 to 8 hours of good sleep. The antidote to a stressful day or health ailments could lie right at our fingertips.
