  Time now for back to the basics and healthcare with Balance Life Chiropractic. We
• 0:03
  have doctor Harley joining us. How you doing doctor Harley, Hey John,
• 0:06
  I am doing fantastic. I'm so excited for Memorial Weekend? Is the official
• 0:11
  like start to summer. Yeah, this is, well, it's the unofficial
• 0:14
  kickoff to summer because summer starts a little bit later, but this is like
• 0:17
  when it really starts right right. So, and this weekend is a weekend
• 0:21
  people go out and go boating, and they go out and go, you
• 0:25
  know, doing all kinds of stuff where they maybe do things that they're not
• 0:27
  used to doing and that can also cause some issues Cannon right. So this
• 0:31
  is just kind of a PSA, a little bit about getting ready for a
• 0:34
  Memorial weekend. You're being careful while you're out and kind of what to do
• 0:39
  afterwards. So first off, make sure you're drinking lots of water. It's
• 0:42
  gonna be hot this week. Hydrate yeah, I mean last week last year
• 0:45
  it was pretty hot. To make sure you're doing lots of water. Bring
• 0:48
  some electrolite drinks or powders with you to help boost that hydration, especially if
• 0:54
  you're going to be outside in the sun all weekend, and when she's talking
• 0:57
  about hydrating, it's probably not alcoholic bridges that you're talking about, but if
• 1:00
  you're having those, it's even more important to hydrate with regular stuff. Yeah,
• 1:03
  make sure drinking the water between those alcoholic beverages and teas and coffees,
• 1:10
  because you're like, oh, I'm drinking lots of juice, tea, coffee,
• 1:11
  a lease, like it's no water though those things can be dehydrating.
• 1:15
  So as we start getting into summer, there's always like the weekend that if
• 1:19
  it's really hot, we're not really thinking about how hot it is. So
• 1:22
  make sure you're drinking. And I keep talking about make surrenking lots and lots
• 1:25
  and lots and lots and lots of water at least half your body weight an
• 1:29
  ounces, kind of a minimum of sixty four fluid ounces. Also go by
• 1:33
  you know, pea color. If you're kind of darker, you need to
• 1:37
  start drinking more. That's what that means, drinking more water. You want
• 1:41
  to shoot for more like lighter lemonade because you're never gonna look at lemonade the
• 1:45
  same way, but it's a good way to gauge how hydrated you comes out
• 1:49
  looking like coffee. That means you drink too much coffee. I think he
• 1:52
  probably should be going to like urgent care at that severely dehydrated by that point.
• 1:57
  So no water is a good thing. And now does it matter if
• 2:00
  you drink like flavored water? Does that change anything? Or is that still
• 2:04
  probably depends what's in it um if you know, if you have lots of
• 2:07
  sugars in it, or sugar alcohols or artificial colors that kind of stuff.
• 2:13
  It just kind of depends what you're putting in it. Like, it's not
• 2:15
  the best for you overall. Your best bet is to really just drink pure
• 2:19
  water, clean water, just water, Yeah, water with water added and
• 2:23
  then maybe some more water, right, I mean just add with water,
• 2:25
  right, even like seltzer waters, you know, too much of that can
• 2:29
  be a bad thing too, So again, make sure plain regular water is
• 2:32
  your best option. Very nice, And do you guys have special hours this
• 2:37
  weekend? Or you is I think kind of back to normal next week or
• 2:39
  is going to be closed on Monday? Okay? Yeah, well I was
• 2:42
  gonna say, I figured, yeah, a Memorial Day, So so yeah,
• 2:45
  if you're out about and you're feeling sore, achy, you know,
• 2:50
  make sure like I keep going back to the water. But it's a big
• 2:52
  thing to make sure, taking plenty and plenty of a while. Last thing
• 2:53
  you want is heat exhaustion or heat stroke, because those are you know,
• 2:58
  you're more likely to get that in a few sure if you have if that
• 3:00
  happens too, I didn't realize that. And I suppose if you're out in
• 3:05
  the sun, maybe stay out of the sun a little bit too, finding
• 3:07
  shade, wearing like loose layers to cover up when you can, letting,
• 3:13
  and telling my wife to let me take a break every once in a while
• 3:15
  from all the work I'm doing. She makes you work a lot, she
• 3:19
  does. Actually it's my choice too. So if somebody listening would like to
• 3:23
  connect with you again, you won't be here Monday because it is Memorial Day.
• 3:25
  But if they'd like to connect and maybe book something for before that or
• 3:30
  after that, how do they get to Honia. Yeah, if you know,
• 3:32
