Health Talk with Dr. Kell

Welcome everybody and thanks for joining us on episode #14 of “Health Talk with Dr. Kell”. Last week we began a four-part series dedicated to exercising. We talked about why we should exercise, how it improves our physical and emotional health, and what to do in the pre-workout phase, or warmup.

This week, we’re discussing the Workout Phase, how much to exercise, should you change up your routine, should you exercise when you’re sick, and where to get help with your exercise routine options. 

When beginning an exercise routine, you need to stop and think, what are my goals? Do I want to get that round muscle butt, toned legs, defined collarbone, or strong shoulders? Am I training for a certain sport? Am I trying to lower my cholesterol or fighting Type II Diabetes? Am I trying to feel better overall and have increased energy? 

You might not know what your goals are when you begin, and that’s ok. The key is to begin. Find a workout buddy, hire a trainer, get interested in all sorts of activities. You might start with walking, hiking, or swimming. You might try bicycling, cross-country skiing, rowing, or jumping rope. You might find you love martial arts like Tai Chi. Strength training may be where you feel your best. Maybe you find out you have rhythm and dance class is where it’s at for you. Think of it as a research project. But do just one thing: move your body.

Welcome everybody and thanks for joining us on episode #13 of “Health Talk with Dr. Kell”. Today begins a four-part series dedicated to Exercising. In Part One, we’re going to discuss why we should exercise, how it improves our physical and emotional health, and what to do in the Pre-Workout Phase. 

In Part Two, we’ll discuss the Workout Phase, how much to exercise, should you change up your routine, should you exercise when you are sick, and where to get help with your exercise routine options. 

In Part Three, we’ll answer what is caffeine, where does it come from, how does it affect the body, is it ok to use caffeine with exercise, and what are caffeine alternatives?

We wrap up this series with Part Four, which discusses the Post-Workout: how long to cool down, what to do, what do I eat after I’m done, how much do I drink, what stretches to do after working out, should I take supplements, how to handle muscle soreness, and how to stay motivated to get up and do it again. 

Exercise is an activity requiring physical effort, carried out to sustain or improve health and fitness. The key words here are physical effort. Get moving, because when you move, things in your body move. Things like blood, lymph, and neurotransmitters like serotonin that regulate your mood. And that’s a good thing. You feel more alive. Your body wakes up. Your mind wakes up. It’s a stress reliever, and in today’s world I think we could all use some of that.  

But start slow, as in, do a warm-up. Five to ten minutes of light exercise, it’s like warming up your car. Let the juices begin to flow all throughout before you put it in drive. No need to make up for lost time. Ease into it. The less injuries, the more likely you are to stick with it and make it a lifestyle. Keep it simple, and remember the key here is to get moving.

Welcome everybody and thanks for joining us on episode #12 of “Health Talk with Dr. Kell”. Dr. Kell will be interviewing Gina Mauricio, who is a running coach.

Coach – someone who inspires and motivates, teaches and leads, mentors and guides.

We’ve all had a favorite coach or teacher in the past. What was it that made them so special? Was it the extra attention and care they gave us? The connection they shared with us? The expertise they taught us? The impact they made in our lives and in the way we saw ourselves? The leadership roles they gifted us with, while on their teams? The confidence we gained under their direction? It’s hard to say exactly what it was. It’s hard to put into words…but they’re special. They’ve made an impact on our lives that can never be forgotten. We feel a debt to them for the time and energy they poured into us. We are forever changed by them.

As adults, we still need mentors and coaches. It’s different though because we have to seek them out. We get to decide what we want to specialize in and who to coach us. We can interview multiple coaches and pick the one that we feel most comfortable with. We can look up reviews online from their past clients and get a feel for their programs. We’re empowered to find the right coach.

On today’s show we are interviewing Gina Mauricio, a healthcare provider who specializes in coaching recreational runners of all ages and experiences to run with less injury potential and greater performance outcomes. She has a Master of Science degree in Kinesiology and a Personal Training Certification. She understands how to prevent injury and has helped many clients learn how to train smarter, not harder. She is compassionate with her runners. Her website, www.runwithgina.com, has many exciting testimonials of successful journeys with Coach Gina. So, come along as we discuss the keys to faster times and less injuries. Happy trails!

Welcome everybody and thanks for joining us on episode #11 of “Health Talk with Dr. Kell”. I’m your host, Niki Sterner, and today we’re going to be discussing Nano Silver and Colloidal Silver.

Medicine Cabinet – a box containing medicines and first-aid items.

What would a Holistic Medicine Cabinet look like? What products would be in there? Before modern antibiotics were developed, colloidal silver was used as an all-purpose remedy for various infections and illnesses. 

So, today we’re discussing Nano Silver and Colloidal Silver, which claim to be antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal. They’re also used externally on the body for rashes, cuts, bruises, and infections. It may just be the next item for your Holistic Medicine Cabinet.

Welcome everybody and thanks for joining us on episode #10 of “Health Talk with Dr. Kell”. I’m your host, Niki Sterner, and today we’re going to be discussing Natural Deodorants.

We’ve all stood next to someone with an overpowering stench before. But why do they smell so bad? Or maybe it’s us? Today we’re discussing what causes body odor and how to help control it, ‘cause let’s face it, you can’t shower 10 times a day to wash away the smell. 

85% of the population is using aluminum-based antiperspirants, which work by blocking the sweat glands and trapping harmful toxins in your body. Sweating is an important body function for expelling waste from the body. 

There are Good, Better, and Best options for you that are aluminum free and won’t clog your pores. Some are even healing for the skin, so don’t sweat it, we’ve got you covered.

Welcome everybody and thanks for joining us on episode #9 of “Health Talk with Dr. Kell”. I’m your host, Niki Sterner, and today we’re going to be discussing Ocean Bay Naturals, one of the divisions of Earthacorp, a company dedicated to improving the lives of people, pets, plants, and the planet.

Natural – what does that even mean? The definition of natural is “existing in or caused by nature; not made or caused by humankind.” So, products that are labeled as “Natural” are good for us, right? Well, sometimes, but not always. It can be confusing, so today we’re breaking down some of the ingredients in natural products that we might want to avoid, because not all of it is good for us or our skin.

Some natural ingredients clog our pores, preventing us from sweating. But our bodies need to sweat. It’s a form of detoxification that is necessary in all of us. Other ingredients affect the PH of our skin, opening up our natural protective barrier to irritants and rashes. Dr. Kell clears up some of the confusion and educates us on better ingredients.

Change your products – Change your life!

Welcome everybody and thanks for joining us on episode #8 of “Health Talk with Dr. Kell”. I’m your host, Niki Sterner, and today we’re going to be discussing General Life Challenges in our world. 

Before I begin, if you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. That’s 800-273-8255. They provide service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to anyone in suicidal crisis or emotional distress. Connect with someone. Your life matters. 

Life Challenges? Or - Opportunities to Learn? Change your perspective and change your life! That’s today’s focus. Right now, with the COVID Crisis, emotional health is our number one challenge. Everyone is dealing with loss, whether it’s the loss of a loved one, a familiar routine, face-to-face connection, a business, in-person school, school sports, or the loss of a job. We have all felt this. So how do we turn it around? 

Dr. Kell shares a story about the Optimist and the Pessimist in today’s talk, and it really focuses on changing our perspective. There are so many ways to do this. We can educate ourselves by taking online classes, reading, listening to podcasts, or even just talking to another person can provide you with new information that will help you change your perspective. Start the domino effect, moving in a positive direction, and let it take you with it, because what you think about, matters. 

“Watch your thoughts; they become words.

Watch your words; they become actions.

Watch your actions; they become habits.

Watch your habits; they become character.

Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.”

A quote by – Lao Tzu

Welcome everybody and thanks for joining us on episode #7 of “Health Talk with Dr. Kell”. I’m your host, Niki Sterner, and today we’re going to be discussing Earthacorp, a corporation dedicated to improving the lives of people, pets, plants, and the planet. 

People invent things because society has problems that need solving.

“Necessity is the mother of invention” 

– A well-known saying by ancient Greek Philosopher, PLATO.

Our world is full of chemicals that are making us and our planet sick. Almost everyone has a family member who’s had cancer, and people are getting it at younger ages now. We want to avoid suffering, so how do we do that? We have to clean up the chemicals in our lives. The Big Companies are not putting out the safest products for us. They’re creating the cheapest products, and that starts with chemicals and additives. We have to show them that we won’t accept their unhealthy product options, and purchase from companies that align with our standards of health. Put our money where our mouth is. Buy from companies that care about people and the planet. Companies that are dedicated to cleaning up our world for the next generation, because it matters. 

Welcome everybody and thanks for joining us on episode #6 of “Health Talk with Dr. Kell”. I’m your host, Niki Sterner, and today we’re going to be discussing the “Six Changes You Can Make Today” to start living your best life. 

Change – the act of becoming different.

I know what you’re thinking, and I agree with you, change is hard. Somewhere deep inside there’s a resistance to change. We want to do better and feel better, but we also want the familiar life, comfort foods, and routine that we grew up with. We admit that some changes would be good for our long-term health, so we agree to dip our toe in the pond of change. We’re not ready to jump in because that feels dangerous. We don’t want to drown in all the changes, so we agree to start small. Small daily changes that are in the right direction that will eventually take us to the life we dream of. Small but mighty. Daily wins and celebrations. Positive affirmations. Creating healthy habits. This is the path to health. 

You’ve probably already come up with five different reasons why you can’t do this but listen to the quote from Bob Proctor: “Don’t be a victim of Negative Self-Talk. Remember you are listening.” 

Keep it simple, and keep it moving. You can do this!

Welcome back everybody!

In last week’s Podcast, episode #4, we discussed the biggest false beliefs about time and money spent on a healthy lifestyle, why most people have these thoughts, what the truth is about them, and how we can minimize the amount of time and money spent and maximize our return on time and money with greater health and wellbeing. 

On today’s show, episode #5, we are discussing how to help you move from a place of pain to your healthiest self. We will help you navigate the sometimes-confusing world of what is a healthy choice and what are healthy products. We will talk about the importance of these steps and how they will help you get to your greatest health and wellbeing. We have a special offer we are going to share with you a little later in the podcast to help you get started. 

Pain - physical suffering or discomfort caused by illness or injury. Most people have felt pain in their life, but not everyone has dealt with chronic pain. The kind of pain that your body is crying out to you with, to make some changes in your life. Your body talks, but you don’t always listen. Sometimes your body must yell for you to hear it. By then you might think it’s too late, but it’s never too late. There is always time to make changes. Your body is a miraculous machine. It never gives up on you. It wants you to win. We are here to help you find those miracles, those turning points, those special nuggets of information, and those products that will change your life for the better.

Your best days are yet to come, all you must do is have the courage to make changes and show up for yourself every day.
