Spinal Cord Stimulators for Chronic Back Pain Win FDA Approval

  Spinal Cord Stimulators for Chronic Back Pain Win FDA Approval On May 16, 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved spinal cord stimulation (SCS) devices from the pharmaceutical company Abbott to treat chronic  back pain  in people who have not had or are not eligible to receive back surgery, per a  press release from Abbott . Approval was granted after a six-month study of 200 participants showed that spinal cord stimulation provided significant relief and improvements in pain, function, quality of life, and mental health.Those enrolled in the trial had experienced an average of nearly 13 years of disabling chronic back pain. Participants were not eligible for corrective back operations because they were either medically frail or they had numerous degenerative changes in their spine, none of which were severe enough to qualify for corrective surgery but are nonetheless causing significant symptoms. After half a year, 85 percent of those implanted with Abbott’s SCS d

Overcoming Body Stiffness

 

A Stiff Body Doesn’t Have to Be Your Future

Good mobility is key to maintaining healthy joints and a pain-free body because, with age, you gradually lose range of motion, strength, and flexibility if you don’t stay on top of moving and moving safely. Too often we take for granted our ability to easily move around and function in daily life.

According to research, over 32 million Americans suffer from arthritis and two-thirds of adults with arthritis are of working age (18–65+). Remember, motion is lotion and keeping your body moving is the greatest way to prevent age-related physical issues. Rest assured, though, this program will give you all the tools you truly need to stay moving for a lifetime.

With Tristan’s signature mobility drills found exclusively in this course, he has helped thousands of people move their bodies safely to create more space and joint freedom — all while strengthening weak and underused muscles and eliminating pain.

This course is perfect for anyone wanting to reclaim better mobility and healthy movement due to:

  • Inactive lifestyle.
  • Injury or illness (after you’ve healed enough to move safely, of course!).
  • Arthritis and aging (a great gift for parents too!).
  • An overworked, overused, tired body.

It's also great for athletes, weight lifters, personal trainers, and movement coaches looking for new tools to increase mobility and range of motion, prevent injury, and improve gains.

In this course, you’ll receive:

  • 11 full-length video lessons of guided mobility exercises per body region—each under 30 minutes. They’re easy to learn and incorporate into your current daily movement routine and busy schedule. **Don't have a daily movement routine yet? This course will help you get on the right track easily!
  • Safe, anatomically correct movement, with emphasis on joint safety and preventing injury guided by a physical therapist assistant and movement expert.
  • Each lesson systematically emphasizes specific areas of the body known for mobility restrictions from your feet to your head. These areas include: toes, feet, ankles, knees, hips, mid- and low-back, shoulders, wrists, neck, and jaw.
  • Self-massage techniques and tool-assisted myofascial release to increase circulation, hydrate your tissues, and relieve cranky, tight areas of the body that restrict healthy movement.
  • Self-Assessment Guide to identify and target restricted areas of your body. In addition, each lesson includes common restrictions found in each specific body region.
  • BONUS MOBILITY VIDEO LIBRARY: This one-page Mobility Video Library has all 10 mobility flows on it, so you can instantly access any you need or love!

As with any movement program, consistency is key. These mobility drills will gradually open your body and allow you to do more physically for a lifetime!

The MIND Diet for Alzheimer’s Prevention

 S hedding pounds is the primary goal of most   diet plans , especially when it comes to fad   detoxes and cleanses . But not everyone on a  diet  is looking to lose weight. Different diets can achieve different results. And if you’re hoping to improve your brain health and prevent the onset of  Alzheimer’s disease , you may consider trying the MIND diet, which has been linked with slower cognitive decline. Alzheimer’s disease — a progressive and devastating neurodegenerative disease causing  memory loss  and confusion — affects 6.5 million Americans and is the most common form of  dementia , according to the Alzheimer’s Association. ( 1 ) As of 2021, it’s the seventh leading cause of death in the United States. (It lost its spot as the sixth due to the onset of the  COVID-19 pandemic .) (1) Although there is no research linking the MIND diet with reversing Alzheimer’s, there’s plenty of evidence supporting the connection between this dietary approach and preventing the disease What Is

What Is the Golo Diet? A Complete Scientific Guide

  he Golo diet, also known as the Golo Metabolic Plan, was launched in 2009. According to the  diet's official website , it was developed by a “team of dedicated doctors and pharmacists,” but it’s unclear exactly who they are. To follow Golo,  the website notes , you eat “1,300 to 1,500 nutritionally dense calories” per day, and take a dietary supplement called Release. The goal, according to the website, is to “get healthier without cutting excessive calories, giving up food groups, or eating unhealthy diet foods.” The plan hinges on the idea of regaining control of your metabolic health, including making your metabolism “more efficient,” addressing  insulin resistance  (insulin is a hormone that regulates the amount of glucose in the blood, and insulin resistance is a hallmark of  prediabetes  and type 2 diabetes), and balancing hormones (such as hunger and stress hormones). The first element, insulin resistance, appears to be the most important target of the program. The company
