If I knew better, I would do better. 2010 Ford Fusion 2007 Ford F150 4x4
A few years ago, a patient said this to me, “If I knew better, I would do better”. This probable does reflect
the situation of many people. Our general health education comes from our parents, health class in school,
our friends, our health care providers, television, and the internet. Too many times, I see patients who never
think about their health until something crops up that causes them to seek health care. My father used to
say, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. In one sense that is a good attitude. It is not necessary to run to the doctor
with every hang nail and sniffle. However, preventive care is a very important part of our overall picture of
health.

We all basically know what to do, but some times we need a reminder.
Moderation is a key element of life. Many people do things to excess. Begin to develop some common $ $
sense. Reduce portions. Drink one or two cups of coffee a day, instead of 20. Drink water instead of pop.
Every 20 ounce pop has 10 or more teaspoons of sugar (as high fructose corn syrup) in it. If you have one
less pop and one more bottle of water per day you would save yourself 3600 teaspoons of sugar in one year. 2007 GMC Yukon SLT 2009 Chevy Impala LT
Just that, would remove 10 or 15 pounds per year, instead of gaining it. Get some healthy fats in your diet.
For too many years we were telling people to eat low fat and low cholesterol. So what did they eat instead,
more carbohydrates and sugars. We need fats to make hormones and nerve cells. Fish oil, flaxseed oil, and
olive oil are highly beneficial. Be careful not to over heat oils (deep frying) since this will convert them to
“trans” fats which are very inflammatory to our blood vessels. Limit dairy; for some it is very inflammatory.
Again moderation is the key. Alcohol in small amounts has some benefit. Frequent,
regular use will eventually cause great health problems which are nearly impossible to 4x4, V8, leather, loaded. V6, auto., loaded, 54,000 miles.

fix. The heat and chemicals from smoking does great damage to our lungs. Most of us
have an amazing resilience. Many people smoke 40-50 pack-years (one pack per day $ $
for one year is a pack-year) and still do not have much trouble. Others cannot handle
that much smoking because they have a genetically weak system. All of us have stress
in our lives. Sometime we get over loaded. That is when systems begin to break down.
Learning to relax, using some Mind Coaching can be highly beneficial.

yourself, and you will do better.
