Health and Fitness

Across the country, triathlon and marathon participation are at an all-time high. For the most part, participants in these challenging events are highly motivated and disciplined. However, lack of good nutrition can damage race-day performance and can lead to long-term injuries and health problems. Many nutrition programs for weekend athletes focus on race or event day nutrition. However, what an athlete eats and drinks during the weeks and months leading up to the event is actually more important than what he or she eats on race day. This program will focus on the role of protein, carbohydrates, fat, vitamins, minerals, and water on physical performance; alkaline/acidity balance and how to prevent some of the acidity associated with heavy training; supplements reported to help with performance and prevent muscle fatigue; dietary approaches for reducing muscle pain; and race or event day nutrition. Case studies will be presented. Irene Durham recently completed the Masters in Holistic Nutrition program at Hawthorn University. Prior to studying nutrition, she was a medical writer who developed continuing education programs for physicians and other healthcare professionals. Irene serves on the Education Committee for the National Association of Nutrition Professionals and she sees clients at her company, Head First Nutrition.

Andrew can also be seen in the documentary Foodmatters. In this highly informative interview, Dr. Saul begins talking about the media’s ridiculous scare tactics about using vitamins. Andrew says we can use nutrition to cure illness and brings up evidence in published medical reports dating back from the 30’s. These results are being ignored by the medical and pharmaceutical industries. Dr. Saul believes death rates would be cut down by ½ if people were eating properly and getting the required nutrients. We discuss the specifics of a proper diet, vitamin therapy and doctoring yourself. Also, we talk about medicine as a belief system.

The Film, “Is Your Child’s Brain Starving?” Lecture on how diet can contribute to ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) by Dr. Michael R. Lyon, MD. Shot at Mount Royal College, Calgary, Alberta. Dr. Lyon – “As the director of a medical & research centre, I have explored a variety of potential treatments to improve brain function in children and adults, without the use of drugs like Ritalin. Although I believe there is promise in certain herbal medicines and in non-drug treatments such as biofeedback, I have seen the most profound improvements in learning and behaviour through an intelligently applied nutritional program.” Notes from cameraman (Gordon McDowell): Dr. Lyon later emailed me a copy of his Power Point presentation , which I’ve incorporated into the video. Director: Gordon McDowell Producer: NA Production Company: NA Contact Information: Dr. Michael R. Lyon, MD is Medical and Research Director of FunctionalMedicine.Ca Gordon McDowell created the video.
