the 6th annual Battle of the Badges Blood Drive took place on Wednesday at the rialto community center. pictured clockwise from front: Laura owens, police Dept. intern Eriberto Varela, and city employee Laura cardenas.

By Maryjoy Duncan

ialto Fire and Police have come together once again in friendly competition during the 6th Annual Battle of the Badges Blood Drive.

Contrary to what the name sug-

gests, Officer Rice noted that the event involves other city entities and departments such as Public Works, Parks & Rec. and the Rialto Unified School District.

“The goal is to inspire people to come out and donate for a good cause,” Rice explained.

The blood drive benefits the American Red Cross.

Both Rialto Fire and Police solicit individuals to participate in the event. Donors indicate which agency they are donating on behalf of, and the winner is determined with the most tallies.

Rialto Police has retained the title for the past five years.

“This is really bigger than the competition itself because we’re in a state of emergency and blood is needed,” said Rice.

City seeks commissioner s

he City of Rialto has seven commission positions that need to be filled. Once appointed, commissioners serve for a four-year term. Meetings are scheduled regularly, and commissioners advise staff and City Council on a variety of topics.

Openings in: Planning Commission, Historical Preservation Commission, Recreation & Parks Commission, Transportation Commission.

Those interested must be U.S. citizens, registered voters and reside in Rialto. Applications can be picked up at the City Clerks Office.

Community input sought for new development

he City of Rialto and NewMark Merrill are hosting a workshop to obtain community input on proposed 15-acre retail development on the west side of Riverside Avenue between the former Walmart center and the new Super Walmart/Rialto Marketplace center in south Rialto. The community is invited to attend the meeting next Thursday, Jan. 18 at the Grace Vargas Senior Center at 6 p.m.

UUT

already requires service cuts, frozen positions and deferral of capital outlay.

The elimination of the UUT would cause detrimental impacts to public safety, recreation, public works and other core government services.

There are other financial obligations that will burden the city’s General Fund, the most significant being the Public Employee Retirement System (PERS) that notified Rialto, and other cities, of payment increases.

Beginning in FY19, Rialto’s annual payments to PERS will increase by approximately $2.1 million per year.

Voters will have the opportunity to decide whether the 8% UUT will become a permanent source of revenue for the city.

threshold not to exceed $100,000.

“If the tax is eliminated there will be cuts to city services and personnel,’ noted Mayor Deborah Robertson. “If this tax is so important, why do we want to have it for just five years?”

The UUT was first established in 2003 with a five-year sunset, in response to factors that threatened the city’s financial well being, including state budget cutbacks. It was extended twice in 2008 and 2013.

According to Interim City Administrator Robb Steel, expenses have outstripped revenue due to rising inflation and increase in services. The 2018 budget projects a deficit of $4.8 million that

Tax r ef or m legislation

able grows from $1,100 to $1,400. The bill also adds a new, non-refundable credit of $500 for dependents other than children.

Finally, it raises the income threshold at which these benefits phase out from $110,000 for a married couple to $400,000.

appy New Year! With the new year also comes new tax reform legislation - the largest piece of tax regorm legislation passed by Congress in over three decades.

Here’s a breakdown of some of the major points of the new law from TurboTax. One thing to keep in mind is that for most of us, the bill won’t affect our 2017 taxes.

Lower Tax Rates and Changed Income Ranges The bill retains the seven tax brackets found in current law, but lowers a number of the tax rates.

It also changes the income thresholds at which the rates apply.

The current brackets are: 10%, 15%, 25%, 28%, 33%, 35% and 39.6%.

The new brackets will be: 10%, 12%, 22%, 24%, 32%, 35% and 37%.

Tax Relief for Individuals and Families Increased standard deduction: The new tax law nearly doubles the standard deduction amount.

Single taxpayers will see their standard deductions jump from $6,350 for 2017 taxes to $12,000 for 2018 taxes (the ones you file in 2019).

Married couples filing jointly see an increase from $12,700 to $24,000. These increases mean that fewer people will have to itemize. Today, roughly 30% of taxpayers itemize. Under the new law, this percentage is expected to decrease.

Increased Child Tax Credit: For, families with children the Child Tax Credit is doubled from $1,000 per child to $2,000. In addition, the amount that is refund-

Eliminations or Reductions in Deductions Personal and dependent exemptions: The bill eliminates the personal and dependent exemptions which are currently $4,050 for 2017 and were expected to increase to $4,150 in 2018.

State and local taxes/Home mortgages: The bill limits the amount of state and local property, income, and sales taxes that can be deducted to $10,000. In the past, these taxes have generally been fully tax deductible.

The bill also caps the amount of mortgage indebtedness on new home purchases on which interest can be deducted at $750,000 down from $1,000,000 in current law.

Health care: The bill eliminates the tax penalty for not having health insurance after December 31, 2018.

It also temporarily lowers the floor above which out-of-pocket medical expenses can be deducted from the current law floor of 10% to 7.5% for 2017 and 2018.

So for 2017 and 2018, you can deduct medical expenses that are more than 7.5% of your adjusted gross income as opposed to the higher 10%.

Self-employed and small businesses: The bill has a myriad of changes for business. The biggest includes a reduction in the top corporate rate to 21%, a new 20% deduction for incomes from certain type of “pass-through” entities (partnerships, S Corps, sole proprietorships), limits on expensing of interest from borrowing, almost doubling of the amount small businesses can expense from the 2017 Section 179 amount of $510,000 to $1,000,000, and eliminates the corporate alternative minimum tax (AMT).

Tr ump, the Constitution, and National Monuments

By Harold Pease, Ph. D

“Some people think that the natural resources of Utah should be controlled by a small handful of very distant bureaucrats located in Washington,” President Donald Trump said, speaking at Utah’s State Capitol Dec 3, 2017. “And guess what?

They’re wrong.” He then reduced two national monuments in Utah, one the Grand StaircaseEscalante by 50%, created by Bill Clinton in 1996, the other, Bears Ears by 85%, created by Barack Obama less than a year ago, both land grabs highly unpopular with Utah congressional delegates.

The cut of two million acres in Utah monuments alone is the largest in the nation’s history.

These cuts may open a new era as 27 other monuments may be on the down size agenda in coming months or years reducing the trend of previous presidents to gobble up enormous tracts of largely western land. The Federal government already owns 63.6% of Utah and elected government officials want to manage their own land, like states east of the Mississippi. Indeed, the federal government claims to own a third of all the landmass in the United States (Inventory Report on Real Property Owned by the United States Throughout the World, published by the General Services Administration, page 10).

Presidents designating national monuments for the last 40 years ranked on number follow: Obama 26, Clinton 19, Carter 15, G. W. Bush 6, Reagan and George Bush 0 (Department of the Interior, Quartz). Those restricting land use the most in millions of acres were: Obama 553.5m, G. W. Bush 218.8m,

IECNInland Empire Community Newspapers

Carter 56m and Clinton 5.7m.

All presidents previous to Carter were 3 million or less. In other words, the top three land grabbers: Obama, G. W. Bush and Clinton each set aside more land than all previous presidents before them combined. At this rate of acceleration one can easily see that in a few short decades the president could own or control every acre in America (National Parks Conservation Association). At the very least one can say that Trump has potentially stopped the acceleration.

A big issue is the constitutionality of further restricting land use mostly of campers, bikers and hikers. It also restricts hunting, fishing, horseback riding and off-road vehicle usage, by the signature of one man only.

Outside of managing land as a territory until statehood is obtained (Article 4, Section. 3, Clause 2), the Constitution gives little power to the federal government to do so.

The Founders understood that the size of land holding was proportionally related to the perceived size of the federal government and they intentionally wanted that perception small. The federal government was permitted to have but 10 square miles for a federal capital. The only other land that they could acquire had to be for military purposes as specified in the common defense clause of the Constitution, Article I, Section 8, Clause 17 which reads: “and to exercise like Authority over all places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the same shall be for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock Yards, and other needful Buildings.” Any new acquisition had (1) to be purchased, (2) have the consent of the State Legislature where the land exists, (3) and be for military purposes.

authorizing additional federal ownership of land as required by Article V for any additional federal power. Constitutionally there exists no federal land, or Bureau of Land Management, or even public land.

One might argue that most, if not all, of the monuments were already on federal land having been acquired when the federal government refused to give to new states all the land that went with statehood when they transitioned from territorial status.

That is true. The federal government through this process came to own about a third of the United States. That late 19th Century leaders fraudulently acquired the property in the first place, it does not follow that present leaders should expand on the fraudulency.

Constitutionally all land within state boundaries, unless acquired through the three stipulations noted in the Constitution, belong to the states—no exceptions.

That the federal government has created national monuments unconstitutionally on what are state lands, or that both political parties have ignored this part of the Constitution for over a hundred years, does not make federal confiscation now constitutional.

Although President Trump claimed no constitutional grounds for his downsizing precedent, he should. His cited reason, that the natural resources of Utah should not be “controlled by a small handful of very distant bureaucrats located in Washington” is basic to the collective view of the Founding Fathers that federal powers be limited and specifically listed in the Constitution or in an amendment to it, was supported by all signing it. And should be today by all swearing an oath to preserve it.

asques. They are an indigenous people, living in a small mountain area in Northern Spain and Southwest France. They hibernate in the Pyrenees Mountains and Pamplona, which is the home for “running with the bulls.”

I first became acquainted with them in the 1980’s and early 1990’s, prior to the 210 Freeway in Highland. I was pastor of the Highland Congregational Church and there was a large field to the south.

One surprising day, a Basque shepherd appeared in the field with about 250 sheep and a small habitable trailer. I became curious and went across the street to meet him. He spoke a strange form of Spanish, so I went to get Juanita, a friend that spoke fluent Spanish.

To my amazement, they hit it off because she, also, was a Basque.

Translating, she told me the shepherd wanted to graze his sheep in the vacant lot on the church’s property. With my permission he herded them over, and I learned things about sheep I never knew. One, they eat grass and weeds to the ground. Two, they only do two things; eat and defecate.

First, they ate and then started to return across the street, across our parking lot. Then they did what sheep do, all over the parking lot.

The smell was intolerable.

But the sky interceded. It started to pour down rain that washed all of “it” on our lawn. That year we

had the greenest lawn ever.

By the way, the word Basque is easy to pronounce. In English it is spelled “Bask.” There are several views relative to the origin of the Basques. Most anthropologists set the time as far back as 12,000 years.

Approximately 3-4 million of them live today in Northern Spain and Southwest France. Their country consists of four (4) areas on the Spanish side of the Pyrenees Mountains and three (3) areas on the French side. They refer to themselves as “The Land of the Basques.” It has been nearly a thousand years since these areas were unified politically.

The greatest tumult of their country was during the regime of Francisco Franco (1939-1975) the Spanish dictator. Their language and culture were ruthlessly prohibited. Franco’s death in 1975 brought liberty to the Basques.

The stature of most Basques has

a decided tilt toward the Orientals; comparatively short, muscular with a somewhat yellow tinge, with slanted eyes. They migrated from the Far East to the Western Iberian area. This involved changing from a hunter culture to a farming and gathering culture about 8,000 years ago. Currently their spoken language is a mixture of Spanish and French. This makes it extremely difficult and complex to understand.

Through the centuries a vast number of rituals have eroded with the Basques. Many of them have religious ties. Giants are often portrayed as both good and evil. Oleotzero is the main one.

Catholicism is the main religion but in recent years there is a decided decline in church attendance. The Virgin Mary is the focus of their faith.

Dancing and singing are part of every celebration, whether it be religious or secular. Physical

Jeff Pope returns to the Inland Empire ou may remember Jeff Pope, radio personality who left the Inland Em-

pire for San Jose about four years Pope was returning to the area, ago. Social media recently went hosting the Jeff Pope Show on wild when the news broke that both New Hot 103.9 and 101.3 The Mix. Pope described the dual stations as ideal, saying “It is mass coverage! When one station goes to static, you can just flip over to the other.”

He said we can expect the same things we loved about his original show. “You get pretty much what you got before. You have got the funny, the Justin Bieber, the Adele, some jokes, some contests! It is all good.”

The station launched Pope’s return with an always-popular Disney ticket giveaway.

Pope is excited to be back with friends and family, describing it as a fun situation to return.

prowess is important at all times.

Sports of all kinds are participated in by the males. Entering the military is also seemingly a “rite of passage.”

There are four major events in the life of its citizens - Baptism, First Communion, Marriage and Military Service.

Probably the most famous event in the Basque tradition is the running of the bulls. It is a celebration of San Fermin. It takes place each year in the Basque town of Pamplona. Everyday for a week, six (6) bulls are let loose in the streets to run to the bullfighting stadium.

“Crowds of white-clad young men (both tourists and citizens) dare fate by running ahead of the bulls.

They also swat the bulls with rolled-up newspapers.” Participation is viewed as another rite of passage from youth to being a young man.

Farming is a major occupation.

The families usually live on “individual farms in relative isolation.”

This develops what is called “first neighbor” or “thelehen auzo.”

This near neighbor creates a relationship that is stronger than blood relatives. In case of a death or ill-

ness, the near neighbor will even watch over the other’s farm; be best man at a wedding or bridesmaid. This relationship is a vital source of social support.

The Basque families have huge houses, of three stories. Animals are kept on the first floor; the family lives on the second floor, and hay and other crops are stored on the top floor.

The family often includes inlaws, grandparents, invalid members and even cousins. The family is an inclusive entity.

Men and women usually wear clothing that resembles American styles. The most unique wear is the flat, wide black beret worn by Basque men. White and red colors are worn by both men and women on holidays.

Finally, “Basque are known for their excellent cuisine.” Much involves seafood. Their fish stew includes mussels, crayfish, eels.

Cold soup with vegetables, garlic, olive oil. Most families have their own wine cellars. Red peppers are a dietary staple. They find their way into most dishes. “Bon Appetit, Heniery.”

Amen. Selah. So be it.

De León was critical of Feinstein’s incrementalist approach, which he believes has done very little to improve domestic issues.

The Senate Pro Tem believes his candidacy will represent an alternative way to do things--one that “shares the values and courage” of Californians.

“We don’t play small ball,” said De León. “It is time to stop biting our tongue and playing at the margins. This is the greatest state in the greatest nation in the world.

You should be whoever you want to be. I will do that for you if you give me the opportunity.”

Others in the audience were less intrigued by De León’s “progressive” approach. At least one person criticized the state senator for supporting the shelving of environmental legislation that would have blocked the controversial Cadiz groundwater project.

Conservative activists in attendance protested De León’s presence by shouting “Kevin, you’re no leader,” as he spoke. Despite holding conservative values, Raul Rodriguez of America First Latinos said he would rather vote for Feinstein.

“Kevin de Leon is not a good leader because of what he represents,” said Rodriguez. “He is trying to promote illegal immigration whatever way he can. I think he’s wrong in what he’s done.”

California Senate Pro Tem Kevin de León (D-Los Angeles) is challenging Dianne Feinstein for her U.S. Senate seat in this year's election.

By Anthony Victoria

alifornia Senate Pro Tem Kevin de León (D-Los Angeles) told local democrats last week that he’s aiming to take the state’s progressive values to Washington D.C. "It is time as Californians to unite as proud progressives be-

cause that's who we are,” said De León, addressing over a hundred people during the San Bernardino County Young Democrats meeting at the Communications Workers of America Local 9588 in Colton on Friday January 5.

De León, 50, announced last October that he would run against fellow Democrat Dianne Feinstein

(D-San Francisco) in this year’s U.S. Senate election. He has served in the California Legislature for nearly 12 years--four as an assemblyman and eight as a state senator.

Some Democrats across the state view de León as a leader of the resistance against what they perceive as President Donald Trump’s xenophobic and anti-democratic agenda. He authored the California Value Acts (SB 54)--the so-called “Sanctuary State” bill that limits the states’ cooperation with immigration officials--and has advocated for aggressive fossil fuel reduction.

“I may not look like a leader in the eyes of Donald J. Trump,” said De León. “But that’s the beauty of the diversity of California. It gives

Retired County Supervisor Bob Hammock passes away at 77 years old

ormer San Bernardino County Supervisor and former San Bernardino City Councilman Robert L. Hammock passed away on December 12 following a long battle with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. He was 77.

Mr. Hammock was born on November 20, 1940, in Lenwood shortly after his parents migrated to California from Eagle Pass, Texas. In 1944 his family moved to Rialto. Mr. Hammock attended San Bernardino High School, San Bernardino Valley College and Cal Poly Pomona, where he majored in aeronautical engineering.

He worked in the title business from 1962 to 1969, and as a civil engineering technician from 1969 until 1976, when he was elected to the Board of Supervisors.

He served on the Board of Supervisors from 1976 through 1992, serving twice as Chairman of the Board. Prior to that, Mr. Hammock served for eight years as a member of the San Bernardino City Council.

Mr. Hammock served as president of what is now known as the San Bernardino County Trans-

The life of Martin Luther King Jr. M

artin Luther King Jr. was a social activist and Baptist minister who played a key role in the American civil rights movement from the mid-1950s until his assassination in 1968. King sought equality and human rights for African Americans, the economically disadvantaged and all victims of injustice through peaceful protest.

He was the driving force behind watershed events such as the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the 1963 March on Washington, which helped bring about such landmark legislation as the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act. King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964 and is remembered each year on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, a U.S. federal holiday since 1986.

Martin Luther King Jr. was born on January 15, 1929, in Atlanta, Georgia, the second child of Martin Luther King Sr., a pastor, and Alberta Williams King, a former schoolteacher.

Along with his older sister Christine and younger brother Alfred Daniel Williams, he grew up in the city’s Sweet Auburn neighborhood, then home to some of the most prominent and prosperous African Americans in the country.

A gifted student, King attended segregated public schools and at the age of 15 was admitted to Morehouse College, the alma

mater of both his father and maternal grandfather, where he studied medicine and law.

Although he had not intended to follow in his father’s footsteps by joining the ministry, he changed his mind under the mentorship of Morehouse’s president, Dr. Benjamin Mays, an influential theologian and outspoken advocate for racial equality. After graduating in 1948, King entered Crozer Theological Seminary in Pennsylvania, where he earned a Bachelor of Divinity degree, won a prestigious fellowship and was elected president of his predominantly white senior class.

King then enrolled in a graduate program at Boston University, completing his coursework in 1953 and earning a doctorate in systematic theology two years later. While in Boston he met Coretta Scott, a young singer from Alabama who was studying at the New England Conservatory of Music. The couple wed in 1953 and settled in Montgomery, Alabama, where King became pastor of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church.

city became the epicenter of the burgeoning struggle for civil rights in America, galvanized by the landmark Brown v. Board of Education decision of 1954.

On December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks, secretary of the local chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), refused to give up her seat to a white passenger on a Montgomery bus and was arrested. Activists coordinated a bus boycott that would continue for 381 days, placing a severe ecoThey had four children: Yolanda nomic strain on the public transit Denise King, Martin Luther King system and downtown business III, Dexter Scott King and Bernice owners. They chose Martin Luther Albertine King.

King Jr. as the protest’s leader and official spokesman.

MONTGOMERY BUS BOYCOTT By the time the Supreme Court The King family had been living ruled segregated seating on public in Montgomery for less than a buses unconstitutional in Novemyear when the highly segregated ber 1956, King—heavily influenced by Mahatma Gandhi and the activist Bayard Rustin—had entered the national spotlight as an inspirational proponent of organized, nonviolent resistance.

King had also become a target for white supremacists, who firebombed his family home that January.

SOUTHERN CHRISTIAN LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE Emboldened by the boycott’s success, in 1957 he and other civil rights activists—most of them fellow ministers—founded the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), a group committed to achieving full equality for African Americans through nonviolent protest.

The SCLC motto was “Not one hair of one head of one person should be harmed.” He would remain at the helm of this influential organization until his death.

In his role as SCLC president, Martin Luther King Jr. traveled across the country and around the world, giving lectures on nonviolent protest and civil rights as well as meeting with religious figures, activists and political leaders.

During a month-long trip to India in 1959, he had the opportunity to meet family members and followers of Gandhi, the man he described in his autobiography as “the guiding light of our technique of nonviolent social change.”

King also authored several books and articles during this time.

LETTER FROM BIRMINGHAM JAIL In 1960 King and his family moved to Atlanta, his native city, where he joined his father as copastor of the Ebenezer Baptist

Church. This new position did not stop King and his SCLC colleagues from becoming key players in many of the most significant civil rights battles of the 1960s.

Their philosophy of nonviolence was put to a particularly severe test during the Birmingham campaign of 1963, in which activists used a boycott, sit-ins and marches to protest segregation, unfair hiring practices and other injustices in one of America’s most racially divided cities.

Arrested for his involvement on April 12, King penned the civil rights manifesto known as the “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” an eloquent defense of civil disobedience addressed to a group of white clergymen who had criticized his tactics.

MARCH ON WASHINGTON Later that year, Martin Luther King Jr. worked with a number of civil rights and religious groups to organize the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, a peaceful political rally designed to shed light on the injustices African Americans continued to face across the country.

Held on August 28 and attended by some 200,000 to 300,000 participants, the event is widely regarded as a watershed moment in the history of the American civil rights movement and a factor in the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

I HAVE A DREAM The March on Washington culminated in King’s most famous address, known as the “I Have a Dream” speech, a spirited call for peace and equality that many consider a masterpiece of rhetoric.

Standing on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial—a monument to the president who a century earlier had brought down the institution of slavery in the United States— he shared his vision of a future in which “this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.'”

The speech and march cemented King’s reputation at home and abroad; later that year he was named “Man of the Year” by TIME magazine and in 1964 became the youngest person ever awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

In the spring of 1965, King’s elevated profile drew international attention to the violence that erupted between white segregationists and peaceful demonstrators in Selma, Alabama, where the

SCLC and Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) had organized a voter registration campaign.

Captured on television, the brutal scene outraged many Americans and inspired supporters from across the country to gather in Alabama and take part in the Selma to Montgomery march led by King and supported by President Lyndon B. Johnson, who sent in federal troops to keep the peace.

That August, Congress passed the Voting Rights Act, which guaranteed the right to vote—first awarded by the 15th Amendment—to all African Americans.

ASSASSINATION OF MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. The events in Selma deepened a growing rift between Martin Luther King Jr. and young radicals who repudiated his nonviolent methods and commitment to working within the established political framework.

As more militant black leaders such as Stokely Carmichael rose to prominence, King broadened the scope of his activism to address issues such as the Vietnam War and poverty among Americans of all races. In 1967, King and the SCLC embarked on an ambitious program known as the Poor People’s Campaign, which was to include a massive march on the capital.

On the evening of April 4, 1968, Martin Luther King was assassinated. He was fatally shot while standing on the balcony of a motel in Memphis, where King had traveled to support a sanitation workers’ strike. In the wake of his death, a wave of riots swept major cities across the country, while President Johnson declared a national day of mourning.

James Earl Ray, an escaped convict and known racist, pleaded guilty to the murder and was sentenced to 99 years in prison. He later recanted his confession and gained some unlikely advocates, including members of the King family, before his death in 1998.

MLK DAY After years of campaigning by activists, members of Congress and Coretta Scott King, among others, in 1983 President Ronald Reagan signed a bill creating a U.S. federal holiday in honor of King.

Observed on the third Monday of January, Martin Luther King Day was first celebrated in 1986.

even physicians at Loma Linda University Health received the first-ever board certification in lifestyle medicine, making the organization the largest in the country. The certification was introduced by the American Board of Lifestyle Medicine (ABLM) at the Lifestyle Medicine 2017 conference in October.

The certified physicians, included: Camille Clarke, Ingrid Edshteyn, Margarete Ezinwa, Cheryl Green, Brenda Rea, Karen Studer, and April Wilson. They were among 200 physicians and over 40 health clinicians who sat for the exam and passed. The certification designates them as diplomates of the ABLM. To qualify for the exam, applicants were required to: • Be board certified in another specialty area • Complete 30 hours of approved training in an online program • Complete 10 hours of in-person CME courses • Complete a case study.

Loma Linda University Health has been at the forefront of lifestyle medicine and it “has been a part of our heritage and roots since the first Sanitarium opened in 1905,” said Brenda Rea, MD, DrPH, PT, RD, family and preventive medicine physician.

According to Rea, lifestyle medicine is about finding and treating the underlying cause of a disease.

The goal is to change behaviors, such as nutrition, sleep habits, spiritual well-being and physical activity. Currently, chronic disease accounts for 70 to 80 percent of all health care expenditures according to the ABLM.

“As we learn more about medicine, we’re starting to appreciate that a lot of the diseases we see are reversible with lifestyle medicine,” said April Wilson, MD, MPH, chair of the Preventive Medicine Department. “We can reverse hypertension, diabetes, metabolic conditions and some autoimmune diseases.”

It’s common for many patients to see a physician primarily for sick care, says Rea, but the goal at Loma Linda University Health is to flip this paradigm and offer a resource to help individuals become healthier or maintain good health. “We give them the support to make the change if they want to,” Rea said.

In 2017, Loma Linda University Health opened a Lifestyle Medicine Consulation Service Line that offers lifestyle coaching to patients in the inpatient and outpatient settings. Soon after, the first lifestyle medicine fellowship was created. The program is designed to prepare the fellows to complete

Clarivil Cruz, a patient of Brenda Rea, and her fiancé often drink healthy smoothies as part of their new lifestyle change. their lifestyle medicine board exam next year.

According to Wilson, chronic disease is occurring at increasingly younger ages. “The generation that has been born in the last 10 years is predicted to have a shorter life span than their parents due to increasing rates of obesity,” Wilson said. “The urgency to solve these problems and other disabilities is critical.”

The team at Loma Linda University Health is currently developing tools, in partnership with other entities, to assess the presence or absence of healthy behaviors in environmental and social factors.

Rea says the Graduate Medical Education at Loma Linda University offers a lifestyle medicine component in family and preventive medicine. She hopes an increasing cohort of physicians will focus on lifestyle coaching in the future.

In addition, Wilson serves as director for a required longitudinal course devoted to helping medical students learn how to make lifestyle recommendations throughout their entire third year clerkships.

Rea and Wilson would love for all of Loma Linda University Health’s primary care and preven-

tive medicine physicians to train for the lifestyle medicine board certification.

“We continue to be leaders in this space,” says Wilson, full-time faculty at Loma Linda University.

“The certification validates lifestyle medicine as a legitimate field and that we are qualified as practitioners to do the work we have been doing for more than 100 years at this institution.”

The next U.S. exam will take place on Oct. 25 at the 2018 ACLM Lifestyle Medicine Conference in Indianapolis.

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.
