❓Did you know that the FDA has approved over 10,000 additives for use in food in the U.S?

❗️Compare that to only 400 additives in Europe

—The FDA has been using the Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) provision for approving food additives since 1958. The FDA had a list of food substances that had a long history of safety in food and didn’t require a formal premarket review.

—In 1997 the GRAS rules changed and the food industry was allowed to do their own research to determine if an ingredient was safe before adding it to foods.

—Prior to 1997, about 1,000 GRAS additives were formally approved by the FDA.

Next time you go to your pantry or the grocery store, take a second and look at the whole list of ingredients in your favorite foods and snack items.

The point of this post is to get us to start thinking about what we are putting into our body.

❗️Our food should fuel our bodies….. not harm them.

Our newest employee Cyrus made it into the office for a few hours this afternoon.

He mostly slept on the job and was a distraction 😉 thankfully his big sister is more helpful.

Our office will be closed today because our baby boy was born yesterday morning! All is going well so far. We’ll be home soon and I intend to be back at the office tomorrow.

We are approaching the finish line! 6 more days until the due date (August 10th) for baby boy Fistler, but it could be any day now!

We first want to thank all of our patients for being understanding with the time we have had to take away from the office for appointments and check-ups.

Given that Miranda and myself are the only employees of our office, we would also like to ask for a little more leniency. We are going to do our best to call patients in a timely manner, and reschedule appointments when we need to rush to the hospital.

1 in 3 American adults experiences insulin resistance.

One of the best ways to support your metabolism, balance your blood sugar, and reduce your risk for type 2 diabetes is resistance training.

—Your muscles are like sponges for glucose and when you lift weights, your muscles become more sensitive to insulin, the hormone that helps move glucose (sugar) from your blood into your cells. Strength training actually increases the amount of glucose your muscles can store and use, which means lower blood sugar levels over time.

—These benefits last even after your workout. That post-lift “afterburn” effect helps your body stay more insulin-sensitive for hours, sometimes, even days following a workout.

—You don’t need to be a bodybuilder or a power lifter. Start with lighter weights. Keep your lifts slow and controlled and really focus on your form. 2–3x a week and build from there.
Your muscles are like glucose-hungry sponges — feed them movement.

—If you’re unsure of how and where to start a resistance training program, here are 2 very good resources:
