Acupuncture May Help Back Pain

Acupuncture therapy may help reduce lower-back pain. In a recent study, researchers randomly assigned 800 adults with chronic lower-back pain, age 65 or older, to either standard (8-15 sessions) or enhanced (12-19 sessions) acupuncture treatment or the usual medical care for 3 months. After 6 months, participants completed disability questionnaires. Thirty-nine percent of those in the standard and 44% of those in the enhanced acupuncture group reported improvement in pain-related disability. Only 29% of the usual-care group reported improvement. Experts say acupuncture may be a complementary treatment for lower-back pain management.

Practice Gratitude

Recognizing and appreciating the good in your life may boost your mental and physical health. When it becomes a daily habit, practicing gratitude has been linked to lower blood pressure, better sleep and a stronger immune system. It also has been shown to reduce stress and to lessen depression and anxiety by fostering positive thoughts and emotions. Practicing gratitude creates a sense of contentment and joy and increases overall life satisfaction. One way to start cultivating a more grateful attitude is to keep a gratitude journal. Write down three things that you are thankful for each day, no matter how small.

Preserve Your Memory

Certain lifestyle choices may help protect your memory as you age. Eat a healthier diet such as the MIND diet, which is similar to the DASH diet, but richer in olive oil, nuts, blueberries, leafy greens and fish. Try to do 150 minutes per week of exercise. Aim for a systolic blood pressure (top number) below 120. Don't smoke. Manage blood sugar levels and LDL cholesterol levels to keep them in a healthy range. Maintain a healthy weight. Try to get 7 to 9 hours of sleep a night. Engage in cognitive challenges such as crosswords, Sudoku, or learning a new language or musical instrument. Get out of your comfort zone; meet new people, join a book club, or volunteer.

Keto Diet & Bipolar Disorder

A recent pilot study suggests a ketogenic (very low-carb, high-fat) diet may help improve symptoms of bipolar disorder (BD), a mental health condition marked by severe changes in mood, ranging from extreme highs (mania) to intense lows (depression). The study looked at 21 adults with bipolar disorder who were taking anti-psychotic medications. After 4 months on a ketogenic diet, 56% of those patients reported significant mood stabilization or symptom remission. The diet may help increase the ratio of inhibitory to excitatory neurotransmitters. Experts say the diet should only be implemented for BD with medical supervision and guidance.

Tai Chi May Help Knee Pain

Tai chi incorporates slow, graceful, flowing movements paired with deep breathing. A recent study found that it may help improve function and reduce knee pain in people with osteoarthritis. Researchers randomly assigned 170 people with knee osteoarthritis to one of two groups. The first group participated in a video-based tai chi program lasting 45 minutes three times a week, along with an app to remind them to do tai chi, and had access to a website about exercise and arthritis. The second group only had access to the website. After 3 months, the tai chi group recorded greater improvement in function and more pain reduction than the website-only group.

Some Benefits Of Pomegranates

According to new research, drinking pomegranate juice may help keep your brain healthy. It contains a compound called urolithin A, which may help protect against dementia and Alzheimer's disease by clearing out damaged cells and allowing new cells to form. Pomegranate juice may also help lower blood pressure. A recent review found that drinking 10 oz. of pomegranate juice a day lowered systolic blood pressure by about 6 points. Researchers also found that pomegranate juice may help lower blood sugar levels and help the body use insulin more effectively.
