exclusive to exercise and proper eating, most people think they just haven’t found the right workout, the right diet, the right time of the day to make this “fitness thing” work. However, in reality, the only thing you haven’t figured out is discipline. As a whole, we lack discipline in many areas… our marriages, friendships, studies, financials, cleanliness, and so on. But the one that is not as easily concealed from a lack of discipline is our diet and exercise; because when we do not workout and do not eat right, we gain weight- there is no way around that. Therefore, you can see it in the mirror, and everyone else can see it too! It is easier to conceal any number of your other discipline issues but this one is very visible to all. That is why when we say to ourselves, “well I’m just not a diet and exercise type of person!”, you are just lying to yourself, you are not a disciplined person! Realize this, you don’t have to be Arnold Schwarzenegger to exercise and be healthy, you just have to be disciplined. CONTINUED >

CATHY AND ROBBY CLAY UNEXPECTEDLY SET UP AT THE WINTER GARDEN FARMERS MARKET IN 2014 WHEN A SURPLUS OF FRESH KALE WAS GOING TO BE WASTED AT A ARTICLE MICHELLE SANCHEZ
LOCAL FARM. Cathy and Robby couldn’t bear to allow this large amount of fresh product to go to waste, and picked the entire batch themselves. The entire lot sold out at their market debut. Today you may know Cathy and Robby’s business as Farmacy Orlando. They continue to have a presence at the Winter Garden Farmers Market, and while their storefront closed in early 2020, they continue to offer fresh produce, eggs, poultry, and meats through their online market, which is available for curbside pick up at two locations. Earlier this year, Farmacy Orlando and the 4Roots Foundation joined forces to extend their aligned missions to put healthy local food in the hands of the community, support local farmers, create a sustainable food system, and educate the community about the food chain. Currently 4Roots and Farmacy Orlando operate out of the 4Roots warehouse located on Princeton Street, just outside downtown Orlando. In the future, the 4Roots Foundation plans to open

a farm campus that will continue to embody the mission through education and hands on experience once open. 4Roots recently opened a cafe located inside the Orlando Science Center, where fresh local food is served to visitors while providing a teaching opportunity. The cafe features a “Food Heroes” exhibit that highlights local farmers and educates visitors on sustainable farming, food waste, and food scarcity. Through the Feed the Need program, Farmacy Orlando and 4Roots Foundation have been sourcing local food and giving it to those in need. Many supply chains were disrupted throughout the last year, and instead of letting fresh food go to waste, the partnership has allowed it to be placed with families across Central Florida. 4Roots and Farmacy Orlando continue to expand their footprint on the community, and have some exciting projects in the works.

HEALTH AND WELLNESS ARE IMPORTANT ASPECTS OF YOUR AND YOUR FAMILY’S LIFE. When Orlando Health Horizon West Hospital opened to the public on Jan. 30, 2021, it expanded our community’s access to a variety of health and wellness services your family may need in a convenient location. Located at the intersection of Porter Road and Avalon Road in Winter Garden, Orlando Health Horizon West is a six-story, 214,000-square-foot facility. It has the capacity for 120 patient beds and seamlessly integrates with the existing emergency department and medical pavilion. “At Orlando Health Horizon West, we don't just provide care for patients. We truly care about you and your family,” says Brian Wetzel, chief operating officer (COO) of the new Orlando Health Horizon West Hospital. “We want to help you and your loved ones be as healthy as possible.” HEALTH AND WELLNESS SERVICES Orlando Health Horizon West brings together experts in multiple specialties to provide complete health and wellness services for the whole family. Patients have access to emergency care, cardiovascular care and surgical services with the hospital. In the medical pavilion adjacent to the hospital, patients have access to both primary (general) health care such as pediatrics, family medicine and OB/ GYN, as well as specialized physicians. These specialized medical services include orthopedics and sports medicine, gastroenterology, pulmonology (lung), and sleep medicine.

In addition, since Orlando Health Horizon West is part of the Orlando Health family, you also gain access to other specialists and hospitals in the system that can help you and your family. “No matter what your medical needs are, our experts can help get you healthy and well and keep you healthy and well,” says Wetzel. HEALTH AND WELLNESS TIPS Orlando Health Horizon West Hospital's physicians and other team members want you and your family to stay as healthy as possible. To help you succeed, below are some tips from Cesar Mejia, MD, board-certified pediatrician within the Orlando Health Medical Pavilion – Horizon West. “We encourage everyone to make at least one daily wellness effort,” says Dr. Mejia. “It’s great for all aspects of your health — mental, physical and emotional.” GET REGULAR EXERCISE The physicians at Orlando Health Horizon West recommend that adults do at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week. However, if you exercise vigorously with a lot of aerobic activity, then 75 minutes per week is the minimum. “The more you can exercise, the better it is for your health,” says Dr. Mejia. “However, even smaller amounts of staying active benefit your body.” In addition, Dr. Mejia recommends that children ages 6-17 years should engage in moderate aerobic activity for at least 60 minutes per day. Children in this age range should also aim for vigorous aerobic activity at least three days a week. He recommends that children ages 3-5 years engage in a combination of light, moderate and vigorous activity for at least three hours per day. EAT A HEALTHY DIET Diet can affect both you and your child’s short- and long-term health. Maintaining a healthy weight lowers your risk of diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and other health problems. A good diet gives you the energy you need to conquer each day. GET PLENTY OF SLEEP Sleep is vital to your overall health because your body repairs itself at night. The physicians at Orlando

While some Ketogenic dieters choose to strictly count carbohydrates and calories, many of us, myself included, practice more intuitive eating with a focus on enjoying meals and snacks based around foods that are nutrient rich and naturally low in carbohydrates. Whether you have considered a Ketogenic diet for weight loss, improvement or management of health issues or from a desire to cut down on processed foods and sugars, now is a better time than ever to give this way of eating a try and see if it’s right for you! https://www.ketowithcourt.com/ Facebook: @KetowithCourt

For many, this leads to better focus, concentration and mental clarity. There are also a plethora of other benefits to a Ketogenic diet , including less gastric distress, increased athletic endurance and performance, fewer migraines, improvement of insulin resistance and insulin resistance related diseases like PCOS, less heartburn, and improved blood pressure. In 2014, I began a whole food based Ketogenic diet, and successfully beat my morbid obesity by losing 190 pounds. I’ve easily been able to maintain my weight loss and a healthy body mass index and body fat percentage for over six years by continuing a Ketogenic lifestyle. I’ve reversed both severe hypertension and prediabetes, as well as found healing for my endocrine system and insulin resistance. So, what does a Ketogenic diet look like exactly?
