Many of you have asked about protecting and supporting your immune systems during this time of crisis. This will be the first of several tips that I can give you regarding something you can do for yourself to reach that goal.
First OBSERVE PHYSICAL DISTANCING! It could save you, or someone else's life.
Second there are two reflexes I will share with you, one for the thymus mediated part of the immune system and one for that associated with the spleen. Both are found on the imaginary line from the arm pit to the hip and both should be rubbed with a circular motion for 2 - 4 minutes twice a day. Note they may be a little tender. The first can be found on the right side by finding the rib just under the pectoral muscle or breast and following it around to the area I just described. The second is on the left side. Find the second rib under the pectoral muscle and follow it around to the area between the arm pit and the hip. Happy rubbing.
Tomorrow I will share a couple of other ideas designed to help you keep your immune system and you healthy.
Stay well.

Osteoporosis: How Fast Are You Losing Bone?
There is controversy over the most accurate test for bone loss in evaluating osteoporosis (fragile bones). The following article by Dr. Ron Grisanti sheds light on this issue and provides test suggestions that accurately evaluate the rate of bone loss.
