HOW TO READ AND UNDERSTAND YOUR BLOOD WORK By Dr. Dan Most people get their complete blood work done from time to time and outside of the simple things to understand (i.e., glucose, cholesterol, TSH, LDL, HDL) they are oblivious to what it all means. Unfortunately, we find that many people who receive their blood work from their physician, nurse or hospital, are not always given an adequate explanation of "highs" and "lows" and what are the concerns and/or dangers. Please attend this free lecture on 'clearing up the mystery' of your blood work, and what natural supplements and dietary changes can make a difference! (Donations will be taken for the benefit of World Health Mission). WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 25, 2011 at 7pm in the NutriFarmacy Building. Please call 412- 486-4588 to pre-register, but walk-ins accepted.

Your Good Health by Dr. Lisa Bernardo, PhD, RN I am very blessed to be the NutriFarmacy's Registered Nurse. In the past 6 months, I have had the privilege of talking with our clients about their health and answering their questions and concerns. Coming from hospital and public health settings, I am learning that our clients are active participants in their health. All of you take control of your health, ask questions and participate in the decisions that affect your health. Many people do not follow this process, relying instead on having a healthcare professional tell them what is best for their health. What exactly is health? The World Health Organization defines health as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." How does one achieve such a state of well-being? Here are a few actions: 1. be curious. Many clients call us with questions about supplements or clarification on news articles and reports. Learning something new every day about health topics, such as nutrition and exercise, sharpens our minds and promotes our well 2. be careful. Only you know what is best for you! Stay away from practices that cause you pain or discomfort. Thoroughly research a practice before you decide it is right for you. 3. be concerned. There are many environmental practices that are not safe for us, such as air pollution, genetically modified foods, and social stressors. Do your best to avoid pollutants and be active in helping to resolve environmental issues. Stay positive and hopeful when coping with everyday stressors. Seek guidance from others as needed. Contemplate what health means to you. Evaluate your current health practices and identify where improvements can be made. Share your good health with others, being an exemplar of what curiosity, care and concern can do for a person!
