The benefits of yoga Renée Andor Black Press COURTENAY — Improved mobility, agility, balance, strength and mental
clarity are just some of the benefits of yoga. While certified Iyengar Yoga instructor Traci Skuce said it’s better to start yoga at a younger age, starting at
an older age shouldn’t be intimidating. She should know, since she teaches classes for seniors at the Filberg Centre regularly.

“People apologize for not being flexible and really the majority of my students are not very flexible,� said Skuce. “I don’t teach in a way of trying to get your foot behind your head, but more just keeping blood flow, keeping the joints happy.� However, she said some people are surprised when they first take a class because yoga involves more than simply stretching and participants do “work.� “They might think that they just flop around, (laughs), but they don’t; they’re

MidWeek / March 14, 2012
The body needs cholesterol From Page 5 such as the heart have higher energy requirements, and therefore require more CoQ10 to function properly. Statins deplete the body of CoQ10. As the body gets more and more depleted of CoQ10, symptoms of fatigue, muscle weakness and soreness, and eventually heart failure may result. Interestingly, heart failure, not heart attacks, are now the leading cause of death due to cardiovascular diseases. Coenzyme Q10 is also very important in the process of neutralizing free radicals. So when CoQ10 is depleted, a vicious cycle begins of increased free radicals, loss of cellular energy, and damaged mitochondrial DNA.
There is a new crystal-free CoQ10 form available now called Q Best, I explained to Phil, which is three times better absorbed, more stable and less expensive than the ubiquinol form. What is so concerning about the statin drugs is that the side effects may be slow and insidious so it isn’t until after many months taking it that I then see patients and suggest this may be one of the many causes of their problems. The body needs cholesterol - it is important in the production of cell membranes, hormones, vitamin D and bile acids that help you to digest fat. Cholesterol also helps the brain form memories and is vital to neurological function.
v
My approach is the following: 1. Would a lower dosage be just as effective and thus can reduce the side effects? 2. Is there a natural remedy that would work to raise HDL and lower triglycerides to reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome? 3. Replace the deficiencies caused by statins namely CoQ10 and selenium 4. Measure other risk factors: waist circumference, homocysteine , serum glucose and insulin levels, 5. Measure other inflammatory risk factors: CRP, uric acid, fibrinogen, and serum ferritin, Dr. Ingrid Pincott, naturopathic physician, has been practicing since 1985 and can be reached at 250-286-3655 or www.DrPincott.com

FISHING CORNER
Last week I was able to catch up with Chris Fordham he was heading toward Denman Island to get an arial view of the herring spawn that was happening in the area. This would be my ďŹ rst airplane ride of the year and from Denman Island we circled back and Roberts Lake would be the next destination to view from the Herring Spawn Denman Island air. The small 2-seater airplane was a delight to be in and taking some pictures of Campbell River and the surrounding lakes was on my agenda for the afternoon. Early in the week, the weather was windy and cold. A number of people were staying at Roberts Lake Resort and the power was out in the area at the time. At times the ďŹ shing can be very good. Trolling slow between the creek mouth and following the east shoreline can be productive with some nice trout being Lake ts Rober Fishing Wharf & Ramp caught in the 2 pound size. Last year some anglers caught ďŹ sh between 4 and 6 pounds. I prefer ďŹ shing off the newly built ramp on the south side of the lake. After a rain when the wind has died down, the trout will show themselves and casting a y will produce ďŹ sh. In general, ďŹ shing the lakes between Courtenay and Campbell River has been very good. Comox Lake is a constant producer of big ďŹ sh certain times of the year. A y pattern that has worked for me is the ying ant which can be black or red. The ant hatch started 2 weeks ago. Anglers were also heading out towards Tree Island and there were lots of herring to be caught. It is about a 10-minute boat ride from Comox Harbour and herring caught were on the bottom in 135 to 140 feet of water. The marine environment can be alive with action. Hundreds of sea lions, eagles and sea gulls were enjoying the action. You can use a multi hook jig when ďŹ shing for herring. The daily limit for herring is 20 kilograms with a possession limit of 40 kilograms. The recreational harvest of herring roe on kelp is prohibited. This Saturday, March 17 the Willow Point Lions will be having an Antique and Junque Sale from 8am to 1 pm at the Willow Point Hall proceeds will go to the Campbell River Hospital. A table will be set up with a wide selection of ďŹ shing ies and various odds and ends. For information call 250-923-1439. The hall is located at 2165 S. Island Highway. Painters Lodge and April Point have set their opening date for May 3rd. Fishing guides that work at Painters are experienced and happy to pass on ďŹ shing information to guests and visitors who stop by the oating The Goose - Long Time C.R. Fishing Guide wharf or the Marine Center.
