So how can we survive the Flu season? Ask Dr. Dale Brown
So how can we survive the Flu season?
Strenthen the immune system! Take care of your spine and nervous system!
University of Rochester School of Medicine
-David Foelten, M.D., PhD., professor of neurobiology and anatomy
“Nerve fibers go into virtually every organ of the immune system. We found that if you took the nerves away from the spleen or lymph nodes, you virtually stopped immune response in it’s tracks.”
Its critical that your spine is in the proper posistion for optimal nerve control of the immune system. So when your body is fighting something like the flu, strengthen your immune system through getting adjustments to remove pressure from your nerve system.
Supplement Recommendations:
1. Vit. D - Critical for proper immune function!
2. Pro-biotics - Healthy bacteria in your gut strengthens and fortifies your immune system!
3. Raw Garlic - Natural anti-viral, and promote healthy gut bacteria, also loaded with vit. C
4. Vit. C - Everyone know this crucial nutrient.
5. Oregano Oil - Natural promoter of good bacteria and kill bacteria. 1drop in a glass of water for a sore throat.
6. Coconut Oil - Healthy fats boost the bodies natural defenses.

JANUARY 2010 R3 FEETURE Runner
Read here about Kate Hover, a Mom, a Military Wife, a Runner, a positive part of the Clarksville Community.
FROM KATE:
I am a military wife and mother of three (6, 5, and 3 years old). I started running 13 years ago in Georgia after meeting another military wife who was a runner. We lived in the same apartment complex, had both recently married, and moved away from home for the first time in our lives. We’d meet to run, chat, and to pass the time while our husbands were away. Since I was new to running, a mile or two was about all we’d accomplish. Next, my husband and I moved to Hawaii where I met another military wife who motivated me to run. She had just recently had a baby and was trying to get back into shape. While in Hawaii, I ran several races including a marathon, a triathlon and an adventure race that lasted over 17 hours and covered 72 miles! However, I didn’t consider myself a serious runner and I just enjoyed each event at my own pace. It wasn’t until three more moves and three babies that I started to get serious about running. I had three kids in three years, and I had already quit my job as a teacher to stay home and take care of the children.
After my third child was born (on the same day my husband left for a 12-month deployment to Iraq), I set a goal to get back into shape and to become a better runner. I started out running short mileage, but I trained for and ran the Army Ten Miler in October 2007 averaging 8:20 per mile. I was thrilled! Up to this point I never thought that I could run faster than a 9-minute mile. After that race, I joined a local running group in Charlottesville, Virginia and trained for another ten-miler. Just five months after the Army Ten Miler, I ran the Charlottesville Ten Miler at less than 8:00 per mile!
Now I am part of the R3 Team in Clarksville. Running with a group has helped me meet people in the community, to learn the area, and to run in places where I normally would not have visited. I never would have met my running friends if it weren’t for the group. I would rather meet friends for a run than for lunch, shopping, or pedicures. The R3 Team has also helped me become a better runner. I ran the Country Music Half Marathon in April at 7:37 per mile.
Although I usually crave running , there are times when it can feel like a chore. Times when the kids’ homework and extra activities seem endless... Times when my kids are sick or when my husband is working long hours or deployed... But it doesn’t matter - I make running a priority. I schedule it on the calendar along with my children’s school and sporting events, volunteering, FRG meetings, etc. It helps that my husband is a huge supporter, but I get a babysitter for times when he can’t be home. Running requires a commitment, but the payoff is more than worth it.
To all of you busy moms out there, I say NO EXCUSES. Make a commitment to yourself. Set a goal and start out small if you are new to running. If I can do it, you can too! Running makes me a better mom. I love it!
