Click hereHey Avi Z.,   Hard to believe July is here already, but it is true.  Many people (me included) have a hard time during the summer holidays and vacations sticking with a healthy eating program and continuing their empowering lifestyle habits.   This week’s blog post is about how to stay committed during the summer holidays and come out of the summer stronger, healthier, and happier. You can read the entire post here...  "Surviving The Fourth of July"  There’s been several great articles of interest this week. In the Washington Post, there was an interesting article about your doctor’s lack of knowledge about nutrition and exercise and how to solve this problem.  I think the issue is much bigger than just forcing doctors to take a few nutrition classes.  The big problem is that the information they are teaching is outdated and wrong in many cases.  See what you think...“Your doctor says he doesn’t know enough about nutrition or exercise”HealthDay News released a short but fun article about the contents of Paleo Poop.  Supposedly, Neanderthals ate more vegetable matter than we once thought and may have eaten less meat.  More evidence that a plant-oriented diet in the way to go!  Read more about paleo poop here...“Neanderthal Poop Yields Clues to Early Man's Diet” Dr. Hyman also put out a good article on the importance of Methylation.  This is one of the main detoxification pathways in the body and it can be impacted by many things.  There are several key tests that are addressed in this article to check your methylation status.  Check it out here...“Maximizing Methylation: The Key to Healthy Aging” Lastly, it’s the Summer of Summits.  At least for me!  I’ve been invited to speak at three different health summits in July alone and several more this fall. Here’s a run down of these awesome events: July 14 - July 23 Functional Health Summit This is a big one, with dozens of incredible speakers from the field of Functional and Integrative Medicine.  The event has a broad scope and attending this no cost event will help you learn about many facets of health and how to address the root cause of health problems with a natural approach.Click here to register for the Functional Health SummitJuly 21 - July 26 2nd Annual Psychology of Eating Conference This online conference was one of my favorites last year.  This year, it’s back, and it’s bigger and better (not just because I’m speaking!).  The event addresses an area of nutrition that is seldom discussed, which is our relationship to food.  Learn how to change habits, cravings, and gain practical tips to get in control of what you eat, rather than letting food control you.Click here to register for The Psychology of Eating ConferenceJuly 28 - 30 Metabolic Revolution Summit This event should is short and powerful.  Incredible speakers and amazing content crammed into a few short days.  For busy people, this event is perfect!  There’s no charge to register and you’ll come away with newfound knowledge that will help you lose weight, regulate blood sugar levels, and improve metabolic syndrome.Click here to register for The Metabolic Revolution SummitThanks again for staying in touch and for continuing to strive to be as healthy as possible.   Have a great July 4th holiday for those of you in the U.S. and enjoy your week.   Dr. Brian Mowll, cle, dc, ifmcp The Diabetes Coach™ SweetLife™ Diabetes Health Centers, LLC     If you no longer wish to receive our emails, click the link below:UnsubscribeSweetLife™ Diabetes Health Centers, LLC 34-B Trolley Square Willmington, Delaware 19806 United States
