I really like Topo foot wear. Their toe box is wide which means your toes have room to function the way they are supposed to. Too many athletic and hiking shoes squeeze the toes and like jamming three of your fingers into one finger of a glove, they don’t work so well. Check out Topo!

I just noticed that today is World Mental Health Day. I have to admit I was not aware there was such a day! Obviously paying attention to and caring for our mental health doesn’t need a special day. It’s something we should do everyday! I am happy to announce I am officially a Lineced Professional Counselor Candidate and will begin seeing therapy clients. I’ll have more details coming soon but for now, reach out if you’d like to connect. And… mind your mental health!

Another follow up article on the importance of Omega 3s. I agree that in a perfect world we’d get all our Omega 3’s from food based sources particularly small oily fish. Mackerel, sardines and anchovies are loaded with 3’s and because of their small size have less environmental toxins. Wild salmon is also a good source. The problem is most people in our culture do not enjoy these types of fish. While the author recommends plant based sources such as nuts and seeds they fail to point out that it is the animal based sources of 3’s that are the most important. It is my belief that supplementing with a HIGH QUALITY FRESH fish oil is a good way to ensure one is getting these essential nutrients. Additionally there is VERY LOW evidence that fish oil supplements interfere with prescription meds INCLUDING anti-coagulants. This is more of a theoretical concern that is likely not expressed clinically.

Our bodies need more omega-3 fatty acids than we produce, and your patients may be unaware of their benefits.

Omega 3’s particularly the kind found in fish are important for the health of our brains. Recent research suggests deficits may be associated with Alzheimer’s Disease especially in women. Watson’s cold water fish and/or take a good high quality supplement!

Distinct fatty acid deficits may help explain why Alzheimer’s affects women differently.
