Haha - so we thought winter was gone...

We just had to wait for Spring before we got any snow!

The weather forecasters were right - the snow is still coming down! If you need to leave the house please drive safe!

This is Ms. Bella (Dr. Shan's dog) playing in the snow - a great day for building a snowman or going snowshoeing! Enjoy!

Organic Coca-Cola?

What will they think of next? Organic Coca-Cola?


What Happens When You Drink a Coke?


Downing a can of Coke may not seem like a big deal … until you really examine what it does to your body.

Within the first 10 minutes, 10 teaspoons of sugar hit your system.

Then:
• Within 20 minutes, your blood sugar spikes, and your liver responds to the resulting insulin burst by turning massive amounts of sugar into fat.

• Within 40 minutes, caffeine absorption is complete; your pupils dilate, your blood pressure rises, and your livers dumps more sugar into your bloodstream.

• Around 45 minutes, your body increases dopamine production, which stimulates the pleasure centers of your brain -- a physically identical response to that of heroin, by the way.

• After 60 minutes, you’ll start to have a sugar crash, and perhaps reach for another Coke to start the process all over again.

Drinking Coke Now Could Have a Heavy Price LaterThe average American drinks more than 60 gallons of soft drinks each year, and amazingly they make up the number one source of calories in the United States! If you drink the regular variety, you can count on about 10 teaspoons of sugar in each can, largely in the form of dangerous high-fructose corn syrup. If you drink the diet variety, you’re likely being exposed to aspartame, and did you know there are over 92 different side effects associated with aspartame consumption including brain tumors, birth defects, diabetes, emotional disorders and epilispsy/seizures?

JUST SAY NO!

Healthy Vegetable Dip

Jeanette's tip of the month:

Looking for a healthy vegetable dip, or a delicious spread for your sandwich? A great substitute for mayonnaise or a high-sugar condiment is hummus. Spice it with different herbs and create a nutritious new taste for every dish.

Coach Dr. Shan

This weekend Dr. Shan spoke at the Elite Coaching seminar in Denver. Doctor’s flew in from all over to attend this seminar.

As you know, Dr. Shan has a wonderful way of teaching and explaining concepts to patients so they make sense and are applicable for daily living- he’s also able to do that for other doctors.

Dr. Shan is gifted in many ways. It’s awesome to see his enthusiasm and willingness to share what he knows to better help not only his patients, but other doctors to help their patients as well! That’s just another way we’re striving to help as many people as possible to not suffer needlessly!

PS – Thank you to all of the doctor’s that attended and to Dr. Fred for leading Elite Coaching to new heights!!
