Here’s to a

FROSTy

With the new year comes new promises to ourselves to commit to finding a little more time to take care of ourselves. Get a little more active, eat a little cleaner, feel a little better! Only problem is, sometimes the quest to get a more active comes with added aches and pains. You can stretch, apply heat, find time for a nice, long massage or grit your teeth and try one of those twenty minute ice baths that we’ve seen athletes use to ease those sore muscles.

New Year

What if you could get the same relief those ice baths bring in just minutes?

Whole Body Cryotherapy (WBC) is an exciting and innovating process that exposes your body to super low temperatures in a controlled environment and helps your muscles recover faster, reduces pain and inflammation, boosts your metabolism, increases collagen and improves your overall health. Until recently, this cutting-edge technology has been mainly used by professional athletes to improve their overall physical condition and health as well as people who are recovering from certain physical injuries; however, one of the beauties of Whole Body CRYOtherapy is that it can and should be used by anyone who wants to improve their overall health. But why wait until you have to use this “therapy” as a treatment to “fix” something? Instead, be proactive and also use it to stay healthy and improve your health now. Whole Body CRYOtherapy is an innovative and exciting way to give your body amazing benefits. Frost CRYOtherapy’s main objective is to make this technology available to the general public.

So how does this work? WBC uses nitrogen, in the form of gas, to lower the skin surface temp by 80F-125F degrees during a 2-3 minute session.

The exposed skin reacts to the extreme temperatures by sending messages to the brain that stimulate natural regulatory functions of the body. Additionally, the skin’s exposure to these subzero temperatures trigger the release of anti-inflammatory molecules, endorphins, toxins, and increases oxygen circulation within the bloodstream. A 2-3 minute session of WBC is equivalent to 20-30 minutes in an ice bath without the

uncomfortable feeling of submerging yourself in ice cold water. The brief exposure to the intense cold causes the brain to restrict blood flow to your extremities, which is the body’s natural fight-or-flight response to extreme cold.

The body reacts to WBC by releasing anti-inflammatory proteins and endorphins resulting in super-charged blood.

Unlike Ice baths, WBC involves dry, hyper-cooled air flowing over the skin surface, so the process never freezes skin tissues, muscles or organs. The result is only a “feeling” of being cold. The body is being tricked into believing that this extreme cold is life threatening. Cryotherapy is a dry cold with no moisture.

WBC fitness benefits include reduced muscle pain, soreness and inflammation, accelerated muscle recovery, increasing energy and athletic performance, accelerating injury recovery, improving joint function and decreased fatigue. It also has overall health and wellness benefits by boosting the immune system, helping with depression and anxiety, increasing circulation, reducing fatigue, releasing toxins, improving sleep patterns, and reducing pain and inflammation caused by Fibromyalgia, Chronic Pain Syndrome, Osteo- and Rheumatoid Arthritis and Autoimmune disorders. Additionally, WBC stimulates deep layers of collagen production for tighter and younger skin as well as improving skin blemishes and scars.

WBC can also help in the treatment of Psoriasis and Eczema/Dermatitis and increase your metabolism!

In just three minutes, getting “FROSTed” can benefit your health and wellness in so many ways! Frost Cryotherapy offers the best prices in Colorado. First time “Frosters” can reap the benefits of their first session for just $30. Sessions can be purchased singularly, in 5 or 10 session packages, or memberships.

Firefighter, military and police discounts are offered.

If you could aid in muscle recovery, reduce pain and inflammation, boost your mood, energy and metabolism and reduce fatigue in just three minutes, why wouldn’t you try it?

Frost Cryotherapy is open Monday-Friday 8am-4pm. Walk-Ins are always welcome!

Call 720-943-1700 for an appointment. For more information or to book online, go to frostcryotherapy.com 11

Nutritional Tips & Trends for the New Year

Contributed by Natural Grocers Nutrition Research and Education Manager, Shelby Miller

Natural Grocers has advocated for health and wellness since their start way back in 1955. Part of that advocating means keeping their finger on the pulse of the next big things in wellness. For 2019’s trends report, they spoke to more than 70 of their nutrition experts and pored over the latest research, and all signs point to a 2019 that’s more intentional, purposeful, and mission driven. Here are a few of the things you may be hearing much more about in the new year.

COLLAGEN & BONE BROTH ARE EASIER THAN EVER

Scoop by healthy scoop, collagen has gained mainstream interest over the past year as it’s been added to smoothies, matchas, and lattes in the quest for glowing skin, healthy joints, and gut healing. In 2019, as more collagen and bone broth products enter the market, so will convenient opportunities to take collagen on a daily basis. Companies will continue to offer an array of products, including collagen powders, gummies, and drinks; marine collagen powders; and even vegan-friendly collagen precursors. Bone broth, one of the richest food sources of collagen, will continue its expansion into the mainstream as well.

Companies are looking for unique and simple ways for consumers to try out bone broth, including bone broth protein bars, pre-made soups, and even bonebroth infused coffee!

SORRY SUGAR, WE’RE BREAKING UP WITH YOU

In 2019, we will continue to become aware of how much sugar is insidiously added to almost everything we eat. Look in your pantry and refrigerator and you’re likely to find the major culprits— ketchup, barbecue sauce, flavored yogurts, coffee creamers, chips, breads, cereals, spaghetti sauce, fruit juice, sports drinks, and even bacon! This year, learn how to break up with sugar. Once you become a savvy monitor of added sugar, it will become easier to avoid it and enjoy the health benefits you’re bound to experience.

THE SHROOM BOOM

In the last several years, the amount of research published on mushrooms has exploded. Turns out, mushrooms hold the power to support the immune system, blood sugar balance, brain health, liver health, respiratory health, hormone balance, and can even boost energy levels.

In response to the mountain of research promoting the health benefits of mushrooms, the supplement, grocery, and even body care industries are introducing more ways to try out these fungal superheroes.

Look for a variety of mushroom-centric supplements, geared toward everything from brain health to immunity. The stunning benefits of mushrooms are influencing new grocery products as well, with more mushroom teas, tonics, broths, and coffees making an appearance in 2019.

INGREDIENT LISTS > NUTRITION FACTS

There’s no question that many of us have a rocky relationship with food. We’ve likely all grappled with counting calories and grams of fat, but in 2019, a new paradigm is bound to free us from some of the struggles we’ve formed around food, nutrition, and our health every day. This year the nutrition labels will be demoted and instead, consumers will read and make food choices based on ingredient labels. The days of counting every. single. calorie. are nearing an end. Rather than glorifying macronutrient logs and adhering to extremely strict dietary guidelines, 2019 will foster a friendlier relationship with food that focuses on simple, clean ingredients in products made with whole, real foods.

#LUTEIN #ONTREND

Blue light—from our smartphones, tablets, computers, TVs, and even light bulbs—has become ubiquitous, and a growing body of research is showing that all of this blue-light exposure damages the retina of the eye and can lead to age-related macular degeneration[1] (the leading cause of blindness in older adults).[i] Excessive blue light also disrupts the

circadian rhythm which plays many roles in health, including regulating the sleep-wake cycle, hormone balance, digestion, and body temperature.[2] Enter lutein. Lutein preferentially accumulates in the macula, the part of the retina responsible for central vision, where it filters damaging blue light and increases macular pigment density.[3] And because the health of the retina is directly related to how well our brains age,[ii] lutein also benefits the brain. In 2019, lutein will solidify its role as protector of the eyes and the brain.

LOVE YOUR LIVER

While it shouldn’t be “trendy” to have fatty liver disease, unfortunately the disease is trending. In 2018 we were shocked to learn that millennials are getting fatty liver disease faster than any other age group, and according to the National Institutes of Health, up to 40 percent of U.S. adults have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease![1] Thus, we believe that loving your liver will be on trend in 2019. Consumers will clean up their diets, ditching culprits like high fructose corn syrup and vegetable oils, and will embrace “mocktails” to reduce alcohol consumption. We also predict an increase in sales of herbal supplements that support liver health, like milk thistle and berberine, as well as MCT oil, which has been shown to reduce fat in the liver.[i] [1] https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/liver-disease/nafldnash/definition-facts [i] https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23576797

THEBOOKENDS

with Pam & Becky

The Handmaid’s Tale By: Margaret Atwood

This tale follows Offred, a Handmaid in the Republic of Gilead. Although she once had a husband, a daughter, a job, and freedom, all of her options are controlled by others and she has little say in her life. In an age of declining births, Offred and the other Handmaids are valued only for their fertility and what that means to families in the organization. She lives in the house of the Commander and his wife and must live this new reality where she has no freedom and does not know what became of others in her life.

PAM: I have heard so many people discussing this series on Hulu and felt like I had to see what this strange story is all about. Unlike many of my friends, I did not read this book in high school, so thought I would start there. The picture of Offred and her life in the Commander’s home became more clear as the author shared more details about how this reality came to be. Offred is essentially a prisoner in this new Republic and has very little freedom. Her one goal is to bear the Commander’s child and secure her future. Did you find the idea of this story disturbing, Becky?

BECKY: I did find this idea to

be disorienting and disliked the way the women were treated.

However, I like that it was different. This is such a unique story and it starts with very little background information.

It took some time for me to see everything fall into place so I was a bit confused at the beginning. I bet this plays out better in the tv show. Did you like Offred at the beginning of this story or was she too distant to connect with?

PAM: I struggled to connect with her initially. It took me a while to make sense of her character and the background behind the present day Offred.

It was intriguing, but a bit confusing as the author took us through the events that led the community and Offred to this point in time. It felt like I had 17

more questions every time the author revealed a bit of the past. However, I’m sure this is what makes it such a popular series! The Commander’s wife resents Offred and what her presence means in her house.

Although she is in a position of power over Offred, she does not have a complete freedom of choice either. What did you think of this character and her place in the story?

sent to an area that was worse or being killed. But, Moira had an outlook on her situation that made one believe that she would survive no matter what happened. Don’t get me wrong. This was a nightmare for all women. Moira exhibited an almost cynical sense of humor about everything she came up against. Did you get this feeling from Moira?

BECKY: It was interesting that

I would have liked to know more about her story. She was the most interesting character in my opinion. I didn’t know exactly what to expect from her and she had different layers to her personality so that drew me to her storyline. I felt like most of the characters in this book were a little flat. They didn’t have strong individual storylines or personalities. Did you see this in the story or is it just my perception?

all women were oppressed in this story. The degree varied but this was a male dominated society. The Commander’s wife had some power over Offred but it was so little that it was more of an intimidation than actual power. I thought that her character was interesting.

When she was younger, her life was exciting and she was beautiful. Now she is more mature and unable to conceive, she must accept another woman in her home to perform that task for her. So desperate was she to have a child that she arranges Offred to bed another man in hopes of a pregnancy. Which is a punishable offense! There is one woman, Moira that fights the system. Did you enjoy this little rebel or did you wish she would just conform?

PAM: I think I felt a little of both with Moira. On one hand, her spirit was refreshing in a place where the point was to break all spirits. On the other hand, I was worried about her being

LOCAL AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT

BECKY: I agree with you and

PAM: I completely agree with you about the characters’ lack of development. I wonder if this was intentional for the setting, as it is a dystopian novel. It is clear why many classes read this book to encourage discussion about many different, challenging, and thought provoking subjects. We change gears as we discuss our next book pick, Islands of Sweet Pies and Soldiers by Sara Ackerman.

Check out some other books we recommend in, The Bookshelf

Beecher Jones just wanted to live a peaceful life in the quiet, little town of Jefferson, MN. Get married. Have a child. Work as principal at the local high school.

Maybe write a book.And he did.

Until that day. The day the fog attacked. The fiendish fog that haunts and hides. The fog where demons dance.The fog where sin and scandal stalk the innocent.

On that unusually warm spring day in 1989, a blinding cloud engulfed the community, and, in a barrage of corruption, lust, and murder, Jefferson’s longconcealed perversion revealed itself. Stunned by the human destruction around him, Beecher searches futilely for logical answers. In his weakest moment, he turns to the most unlikely sources for strength and resolve – Jefferson’s “broken-down, blue-eyed Indian” Art Benson and a Hollywood screenwriter named Amanda Wilson. Together, the three will fight back against the evil assaulting the town with the only weapon in their possession.

The Story. The Story that must be told.

Intelligent Motion Therapy 19751 E Mainstreet #310 Parker, CO 80138 303-808-9807 www.imtpilates.com By appointment

Are you looking for a new fitness program?

Is your current workout lacking results or causing injuries? Take a look at Intelligent Motion Therapy. Dr. Rebecca Hoeck PT, DPT opened in 2008 and is conveniently located in downtown Parker. Her vision was to provide a better customer service experience for the physical therapy patient and achieve better patient outcomes. She experienced high levels of frustration and fatigue as a traditional staff physical therapist and knew there was a need for a better solution to healing, educating and empowering patients to healthy lifestyles and choices. She wanted to create the right environment to follow patients through the continuum of care. So often patients are sent to physical therapy and then there is little or no care after. Her wellness center allows those who are injured or deconditioned to start right where they are, receive coaching, therapy, etc., and continue through the services, finding the road to wellness all in the same place. Her level of professional satisfaction has grown exponentially as she has had the privilege and honor of watching her patients transition into fitness clients; and therefore, adopt healthier lifestyles through her Pilates, Yoga and Tai Chi services.

to-teacher ratio fitness classes to ensure safety and efficacy while building a sense of community among the students and instructors. The instructors have advanced levels of education including Doctor of Physical Therapy, Doctor of Naturopathy, Masters in Pilates Teaching and Comprehensive Pilates and Yoga Teacher Training so you are in the hands of some real experts in their field.

They offer an array of wellness services including Pilates, Physical Therapy, Yoga, Tai Chi, and Massage. Several classes are offered with morning and evening options and multiple levels of Pilates are available.

They are also adding skin care and esthetics services in January 2019!

If you aren’t sure where to start, she recommends Pilates. Pilates teaches us how to move and align our bodies correctly which reduces the stress and strain of our daily activities that lead to muscle, joint and soft tissue pain.

She knows that they have done a great job! “That’s the magic of owning my own business!” Dr. Hoeck chose Parker because it is a very fitness and wellness-friendly community.
