As a ND, my goal is to optimize the 5 main pillars that make up the foundation of our health. They are: healthy nutrition, regular exercise, good sleep quality and quantity, optimal stress management, and positive social connections.

Today, I would like to highlight the importance of regular exercise, and why it is so essential to your health. Very few people realize the importance of SKELETAL MUSCLE as an endocrine gland, which is an organ that releases hormones into the bloodstream. Contraction of skeletal muscle causes the release of small proteins that act as hormones within the body; they are known as “Myokines” (meaning, muscle-derived). These small proteins are able to influence everything from repairing muscle, blood sugar regulation, boosting brain health, increasing body density, decreasing inflammation, fat loss, among many other benefits. One needs to actively contract skeletal muscles in order to cause the release of these proteins, and this can be done through many forms of exercise.

I intend to have all of my patients on an exercise regimen to help them achieve your health goal(s). I will not be able to take you (as a patient) through a full workout in the gym area that I set up next to my treatment room (remember, I am a Naturopathic Doctor, not personal trainer), but I will be able to demonstrate exactly what I would like you to work on during your own time, including having you demonstrate for me to make sure you are doing things correctly.

There are many other benefits to engaging in regular exercise; stay tuned for more information! If you are interested in seeing a Naturopathic Doctor, come see me at New Horizons Naturopathic, or call me at 519-915-2916.
