What is health?
• Many people think that health is simply about how you feel.
• However you can look and feel great, and still be unhealthy.
• TRUE health is determined by how well your body works… mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually and socially.
“Aging poorly is not inevitable. You do have a choice. Based on your parents’ and grandparents experiences, you’ll see where you’re headed unless you
choose a different path.!” Eric Plasker
The Illness-Wellness Continuum
Wellness is a process, never a static state. This model shows the relationship of the Wellness and Treatment Paradigms. Moving from the center to the left shows a progressively worsening state of health. Moving to the right of center indicates increasing levels of health and well-being. The Treatment Paradigm can only take you to the neutral point, where the symptoms of disease have been alleviated. The Wellness Paradigm, utilized at any point on the continuum, moves one towards ever higher levels of wellbeing.

• Illness and Health are only the tip of an iceberg.

Move

Hydration
• The earth is 66% water • A healthy body is about 66% water • Lean tissue is 73% water • Fat tissue is 14% water
Yes how may of us hydrate properly each day? We can lose up to 1.5 litres per day just by breathing, urinating and sweating…. So you need that just to break even!
• Being just 2-3% dehydrated can significantly affect short term memory and cognitive function, yet many of us exist in a chronic state of mild dehydration.
“Hormones and their receptors
also have optimum pH levels with
usually the same bell curve seen
with enzymes.”
Klemcke H G, Pond W G.
Porcine adrenal
adrenocorticotropic hormone
receptors: characterization,
changes during neonatal
development, and response to a
stressor. Endocrinology
1990:128: 2476-2488.
Once hormones and their receptors are outside their optimum pH,
they continue to function as do enzymes, but at a reduced rate. For
example, it may take twice as much of the same hormone at the new
pH set point to induce an equal response from the hormone.

(1994) 42, 299.
