Alzheimer’s disease, a fatal neurodegenerative disorder afflicting more than 25 million people worldwide, currently has no cure or even disease-delaying therapy.

Estradiol, Testosterone, and Human Growth Hormone are 3 hormones that can protect against aging-related cognitive decline, with the majority studies reporting stabilization of cognitive and brain tissue integrity. They are independently associated with neuroprotective effects.

Are your hormone levels optimal?

Visceral fat… high fat mass… enhanced inflammation… deleterious lipid profiles of cholesterol, LDL’s, and triglycerides increases the risk of dementia.

Summertime is the best time of the year to have fun tackling FAT, INFLAMMATION, and CHOLESTEROL. Here are a few tips:

Exercise – walk, cycle, swim, play baseball, sweat at the gym
Lose weight – if you're having a difficult time, call the office regarding the HCG Diet.
Eat healthy – proteins, vegetables, legumes (chickpeas and lentils), fruit, nuts and seeds, oils, spices (cinnamon and turmeric)
Avoid inflammatory foods – sugar, wheat, potato, fruit juice
Drink water

BHRT – Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy

If you have struggled to lose weight or keep it off, your hormones are likely to be a factor. Your hormones control every aspect of weight loss including your metabolism, where you store your fat, your appetite, and even your cravings. This means any form of hormonal imbalance will sabotage your efforts – regardless of your diet and exercise habits. Hormonal imbalances that can inhibit weight loss include thyroid imbalance, low growth hormone, high estrogen, low testosterone, low DHEA, and insulin resistance. Call our office for further information.

Fall 2016

FIRST DAY OF FALL 2016: THE AUTUMNAL EQUINOX: SEPTEMBER 22 @ 10:21 A.M.

EDT

The word equinox means “equal night”, night and day are about the same length of time. In

addition to the equal hours of daylight and darkness, the equinoxes are times when the sun’s

apparent motion undergoes the most rapid change. The “ natural sequence of human life” we

are born, we get older, we deteriorate, we die. At

some point we observe the aging process within ourselves and those around us as early as 40

years old. Is this our equinox ? Can we alter our equinox? Can we maintain a longer healthier

and youthful life? What are the sweet possibilities to an aging body?

Have you had your equinox ?

My memories brings me to my midforties

sitting at a small table outside a cafe with a fiance’ in Portofino, Italy on a hot, hot day. I flapped the edges of my skirt and instantly realized I did an “old lady thing”. I laughed. The fiance’ asked what was so funny. I told him. He laughed with me. Needless to say, my hormones were already declining, but I didn’t know it. A few years

later, I knew I had the symptoms of hormone deficiency.

The rise of diseases and complications associated with aging can be altered by diet, lifestyle

changes, and natural bioidentical hormone replacement therapy ( HRT) . With the help of HRT

the physical, emotional, and mental deterioration can be altered. HRT is preventive medicine.

It is about maintaining health and a satisfactory quality of life.

Balanced Hormone Replacement Therapy is restoring all hormones to a 25 – 30 year old level

and monitoring by regular serum levels . Balanced HRT is Growth Hormone, DHEA,

Pregnenolone, Melatonin, Testosterone in both men and women, Estrogens and Progesterone in

women, and Thyroid. Embrace the feeling of wellbeing!

Embrace quality of life!

This newsletter brings us into Autumn and the days leading up to our general election for the

Presidency of the United States of America. Please do not get complacent… VOTE .

‘Come senators, congressman

Please heed the call

Don’t stand in the doorway

Don’t block up the hall

For he that gets hurt

Will be he who has stalled

It’ll soon shake your windows

And rattle your walls

For the times they are achangin’

Holidays 2016

THE HOLIDAYS

“You wanna do whaaaat?!! – The Turkey

The holidays will always have “the feel good factor” and “the stress factor”.

“The feel good factor”. One kind word can warm three winter months. – Japanese Proverb

“The stress factor”. Impact on the body, mind and heart. This impact can result to a decrease immune system, illness, fatigue, weight gain, unhappiness, and aging.

PMC of Beverly Hills was very successful last year, because of all the donations, in giving sleeping bags and warm clothing to Los Angeles homeless. We like to start early this year gathering tarps, sleeping bags, and warm clothing to distribute on December 20th.

Please drop off your donations to the office at any time or call and pledge a financial donation. Big 5 Sporting Store discounted their sleeping bags and clothing and gave an overall 10% discount for the cause of helping the homeless. We truly appreciate yours and their generosity.

PMC of Beverly Hills also takes “the stress factor” seriously such as:

Hormonal Balance – DHEA is the “stress hormone”. It is produced in the adrenal glands and offers us the energy to fight or flight. Testosterone and Progesterone are feel-good hormones. Low levels of Testosterone can cause depression. Where are your levels?
Intravenous (I.V.) Therapy + Oxygen – Support the immune system by decreasing stress, pain, fatigue, acute or chronic illnesses, viral or bacterial infections.
HCG Diet – Look your best and feel great.
Chiropractic and Acupuncture – Alignment does matter and so does the flow of energy.

“Once you start practicing being grateful and thankful for things, people, and events, you may notice that you start to attract more positive things, people, and events in your life”. – Stephanie Conkie

November began with the Presidential Election and conversation of it will carry us into the New Year. It is a sobering thought that we are together at this time and place. Let’s not take anything for granted.

The PMC Staff wishes you happiness that multiplies, prosperity, peace, health to you and yours, energy to grasp your dreams, and joy to fill your holiday!

P.S. “The Turkey” is presently undergoing treatment for stress.
