  Time now for we're back to the basics in healthcare with balance Life Chiropractic and
• 0:03
  we have doctor Harley joining us. How you doing, doctor Harley, Hey
• 0:06
  John, I'm doing great. Always good to talk to you. Yeah.
• 0:08
  It's starting to get cool again because we had like cool weather and then we
• 0:11
  had like that fake fall come back, and now it's like cool weather again,
• 0:15
  so it's time to get ready. And we even had like a little
• 0:17
  snow the other day. I think we're finally I think it's finally the turn
• 0:20
  now of getting to winter. So a lot of people getting ready for holiday
• 0:24
  stuff. We've got Christmas coming up, We've got other holidays coming up as
• 0:27
  well, but people getting ready for tons of stuff and doing a lot of
• 0:30
  shopping and doing a lot of running. And this time of year, I
• 0:33
  suppose with the days shorter, do people I know, like there's a seasonal
• 0:39
  something, Yeah, seasonal depressive disorder. Yeah. Yeah, we're not outside
• 0:44
  as the big thing with that is like we're not outside as much because it's
• 0:47
  cold, and we're not getting as much sunlight when it's a little bit warmer
• 0:51
  in the day, so we're not getting enough vitamin D and that's what helps
• 0:55
  produce the serotonin, the melitone, and the feel good hormone. So we're
• 0:59
  pretty on that vitamin D this time of year, and that's where we that
• 1:03
  if you're going to have seasonal depression, that's really kind of when it kicks
• 1:06
  in. So we need to try to get as much sunlight as we can,
• 1:08
  right or start taking a vitamin D supplement. There's another way that can
• 1:11
  help with that as well. So would that be like the vitamin D milk
• 1:15
  or that's something completely different, and they put vitamin D in milk, but
• 1:17
  there's different forms of vitamin D. They're better for your body to absorb.
• 1:21
  So that's one thing. Like when you're looking at a vitamin D supplement,
• 1:23
  you know, look at what kind of what it is? Very nice and
• 1:26
  this time of year, there are other things that people should be doing to
• 1:30
  kind of just keep their health in check. Not eating so much food.
• 1:34
  Why dis the point at me and poke my belly. She didn't really do
• 1:37
  that. I'll be like, man, I ate so much food over Thanksgiving,
• 1:40
  But that's the holidays, right. We make all this food, we
• 1:42
  plan for all these people, all the goodies, the sweets and treats,
• 1:46
  and then we have to try to counteract at the rest of the month.
• 1:49
  We hosted twenty three people and then we had a lot of leftover so my
• 1:53
  job was to clean those up. Oh they're going to say eat all of
• 1:56
  them, not all of them, but I ate quite a few. So
• 1:57
  that's the best part of things, saving all the leftover food. But yeah,
• 2:00
  yeah, this is the time of year that our health kind of starts
• 2:02
  declining because it's colder, we're not outside as much, we're eating a lot
• 2:06
  more, we're drinking a lot more. So when we're not around the holidays,
• 2:09
  you know, get back on track with your health plans. You eating
• 2:13
  healthier, more balanced diet, exercising more. Are the things you can do
• 2:16
  to maybe avoid some of that stuff without you know, being you know a
• 2:20
  humbug. I can't do anything at Christmas, but just maybe drinking more water
• 2:23
  or what would be a good thing to be ready, biggest thing moderation,
• 2:27
  especially you know all those Thanksgiving dinners, like eating a little bit at a
• 2:30
  time, or you know, when we get to Christmas, not eating as
• 2:32
  many cookies, you know, limiting yourself to one cookie a day. Do
• 2:37
  you hear that, Santa? I wonder I'm sure they have statistics, how
• 2:40
  many it probably eats. Somebody somewhere is crunch the numbers, right. That's
• 2:45
  not me. I'm not a numbers me any either. But what does matter
• 2:47
  this time? You're spend time with friends and family and get out and do
• 2:50
  some fun stuff. And if you can get out and get some sunlight that
• 2:52
  helps a lot, doesn't definitely, and get in the gym. Don't wait
• 2:54
  till January first. Do some exercising between now and then so you're not dying
• 3:00
  when you do start your New Year's resolution. When we're on that treadmill,
• 3:02
  that little water thing, you can put gravy in that if you want so.
• 3:07
  You can targled that last week. No, I don't think you want
• 3:08
  to drink gravy. And by the way, I've never done that. I'm
• 3:12
  just saying if you wanted to, you could. No. If somebody would
• 3:15
