Wow just when I thought I have seen everything 😀

If you are in need of butter...make sure to line up for Om die Dam this weekend in Hartbeespoort 💪🏻

This new running trend sounds fake but it’s actually real 🤯

Some runners are now putting cream and salt inside sealed bags, throwing them in their backpacks, and going for a run. After a few miles of bouncing around, the shaking turns the cream into butter. Yes, real butter. The idea is simple. You train and make food at the same time.

The trend started on social media and quickly went viral, with people calling it churning and burning. The longer you run, the more the cream gets shaken, and by the time the workout is over, you have homemade butter ready to eat. Some runners say it makes training more fun, others just enjoy the absurdity of it.

It sounds ridiculous, but it also shows how far fitness culture is willing to go to stay entertaining. When workouts start feeling boring, people look for new ways to make them interesting, even if that means turning a long run into a cooking experiment.

At this point, the real question is not why people are doing this. The real question is what strange fitness trend will come next.

🌳 GREEN EXERCISE 🌲
(Check out this beautiful view on my morning walk/run & spot my cute little friend)
..is any physical activity performed in a natural, outdoor environment.
It combines the physical benefits of movement with the restorative power of nature, such as parks, forests, or coastal areas.

✨Key Benefits✨
Research suggests that exercising in nature provides a "synergistic" boost to health that indoor workouts cannot match.

🧠 Mental Health 🧠
Significant improvements in mood and self-esteem can occur in as little as five minutes. It is particularly effective at reducing stress, anxiety, and depression.

💪🏻 Physical Gains 💪🏻
Outdoor terrain often challenges more muscle groups than flat gym surfaces, and exposure to sunlight helps maintain healthy Vitamin D levels.

😃 Perception of Effort 🥱
People often perceive outdoor exercise as being "easier" than the same activity indoors, which can lead to longer or more frequent workouts.

👇🏻 Common Examples 👇🏻

🚶 Low Intensity: Brisk walking, gardening, or birdwatching.

🏔️ Moderate to Vigorous: Hiking, trail running, cycling, or kayaking.

🧘 Mindful Practices: Outdoor yoga or Tai Chi.

🐕 Recreational: Playing frisbee, golf, or group sports in a park

Celebrate your healthy, functioning body 🫶🏻
As a Biokineticist we work with a lot of injured or disabled people who sometimes wish they were able to do more and then I often see people take their health for granted 🥹

🧐 Research has established a significant link between hearing loss and dementia, identifying hearing loss as the largest modifiable risk factor for dementia.

This means that while hearing loss does not directly cause dementia, untreated hearing problems substantially increase the likelihood of developing the condition later in life.

🤓Key Risk Statistics
The risk of developing dementia increases proportionally with the severity of untreated hearing loss:

👂 Mild hearing loss: Nearly doubles the risk.

👂 Moderate hearing loss: Triples the risk.

👂 Severe hearing loss: Up to five times more likely to develop dementia.

❓Why They Are Linked (Primary Theories) 🤨
Scientists have proposed several mechanisms to explain this connection:

🧠 Cognitive Load:
When hearing is impaired, the brain must work much harder to process and decode sounds. This "brain strain" uses up cognitive resources that would otherwise be used for memory and thinking.

💭 Social Isolation:
Difficulty hearing often leads people to withdraw from social situations. Lack of social stimulation is a well-known independent risk factor for cognitive decline.

🎵 Structural Brain Changes:
Lack of auditory stimulation can lead to physical shrinkage (atrophy) in brain regions responsible for sound processing, which also overlap with memory systems.

🙂Common Cause:
It is also possible that a shared underlying pathology, such as vascular disease or inflammation, affects both the ears and the brain simultaneously.

🤗The use of Hearing Aids
Evidence suggests that addressing hearing loss early may reduce or delay the risk of dementia.
Using hearing aids can restore cognitive stimulation and reduce the cognitive burden on the brain.

🤓A major 2023 study found that hearing aids reduced cognitive decline by 48% over three years in older adults at high risk for dementia.

🥵Central hearing loss—difficulty processing sounds in the brain rather than the ear—may actually be an early symptom of Alzheimer’s rather than a modifiable cause.

Why Movement is Prescribed, Not Random.

Not all exercise is therapeutic.

Biokineticists assess posture, biomechanics, strength, endurance and medical history before prescribing movement.

Like medication, exercise must be:
✔ The right type
✔ The right dose
✔ The right progression

Precision matters

Hy kan jou finansies vermenigvuldig: ‘God wat saad voorsien aan die saaier… sal ook aan julle saad gee en dit laat toeneem en die vrugte van julle goedhartigheid lieflik laat groei’ (2 Korintiërs 9:10 NLV). Thank you God 🫶🏻

💛 A MESSAGE OF GRATITUDE FROM HARTIES FM & THE BOTHA FAMILY 💛

On behalf of the Botha family, Harties FM would like to express our deepest gratitude.

Firstly, we want to thank our Heavenly Father for His grace, mercy, and provision during this incredibly difficult time. 🙏

Secondly, to every single one of you in the Harties FM family who prayed, shared, donated, and sent messages of support, THANK YOU. 💛

Because of your love and generosity, the financial goal was reached in record time. With donations paid into the Trust account, the BackaBuddy target could be lowered to R130,000.

The Botha family is truly overwhelmed and blown away by the outpouring of love, the prayers, messages, calls, and donations. It means more than words can express.

Update:
The family will be seeing the doctor this morning to get more details on what time the procedure will take place today.

🙏 Please continue to pray with us for:
✅ a successful procedure
✅ wisdom for the medical team
✅ strength for the family
✅ and a speedy, full recovery for young HW

Thank you for standing together, this is truly what family looks like. 💛

Please help this young man 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Ons rig met ’n nederige en dringende versoek ’n beroep op julle harte vir hulp namens ons seun, HW Botha (18), ’n trotse oud-Lantie van 2025. Hy is tans in die hospitaal nadat albei sy longe ineengestort het en het dringend ’n operasie nodig.
Om die prosedure te kan laat voortgaan, word ’n deposito van R150 000 vereis, met verdere mediese kostes wat daarna sal volg. Hierdie onverwagte situasie plaas ’n enorme finansiële las op ons gesin, en ons vra met ope harte vir enige vorm van ondersteuning wat moontlik is.
Enige bydrae, hoe klein ook al, sal opreg waardeer word. Indien dit nie finansieel moontlik is nie, sal ons ook dankbaar wees vir gebede en die deel van hierdie boodskap, sodat meer mense bewus kan wees van ons seun se nood.
Baie dankie vir julle begrip, omgee en ondersteuning in hierdie uiters moeilike tyd. Ons waardeer dit opreg.

Facts 🙌🏻 we tend to only think of where we are today...not where we will end up with the choices we make today 🫶🏻

Send this to someone you’re on your health journey with.

Every meal, every workout, every night’s sleep—it’s all building the future you. What you do now, in your 20s, 30s, and even 50s, shapes the health you’ll experience in the decades to come.

To understand why the choices you make today impact your future health, consider this: chronic disease and mobility loss are rooted in long-term, silent processes. Inflammation, poor diet, stress, and lack of exercise can slowly damage your cells, arteries, and brain, starting decades before symptoms appear.

These conditions are not random—they develop over time based on lifestyle factors. Every healthy choice you make now can slow or even prevent these processes. It’s all connected.

It’s never too late—or too soon—to start living well.
