Rose Petals

Harvesting and drying out some of the abundance from the Wishing Wellness Garden.

Rose petals are used to make rosewater using a distillation process- Rose water can be used as a facial mist and in recipes. Rose petals are also great in teas. Adding rose tea to your health regimen may help treat arthritis, menstrual cramps, flu, cold, digestive difficulties, bronchitis, depression, insomnia and many other chronic diseases. Unlike rose hip tea, which is made from the fruit of the rose plant, this tea is derived from the whole blossoms or petals.

Using fresh lemon leaves and macerating them with fresh rose petals makes for a great tea as well.

Elotes, Mexican Street Corn

"Corn became ubiquitous in the Americas, being the main ingredient for tortillas, breads, stews, tamales, puddings and even beverages. Corn on the cob, an American classic, is known as Elote in Mexico, where it’s boiled or roasted and served on a stick or with the husk as a handle. It’s a beloved street food favorite, and it’s easy to see why since this humble crop makes the perfect vehicle for all sorts of savory add-ons." http://thetable.homechef.com/brief-history-elotes/

Hydration

💦Hydrating 💦 Even though we are no longer in triple digits it's still important to remember to hydrate. Dr Scott uses glass bottles. Glass used for food and beverage containers doesn't leach chemicals, nor will using glass to hold beverages other than water i.e. Tea, sports drinks, affect the material or absorb residual tastes or odors. Glass bottles are also safe to clean in a dishwasher 💧💦 Some Facts About Plastic Bottles:  The production of one plastic bottle uses energy, omits toxins into the air, and uses more water to produce than the amount of water put inside the bottle for drinking!
Americans throw away 35 billion plastic water bottles every year.
About 45% of bottled water brands are sourced from the same municipal water supplies as tap water.

Acroyoga

Dr. Scott and Ren started taking yoga classes together in college. 
It was a natural progression to begin doing poses together. After taking some Thai Massage classes and partner yoga workshops & watching YouTube 'how to' videos they started practicing #AcroYoga #PartnerYoga--Ren's passion for local art became the inspirational back drop of many of the photos we post on our @VegasYoga Instagram account. Check out our page to see some great art around #LasVegas and daily yoga inspiration.

Fish Oil

Fish oil is now the third most widely used dietary supplement in the United States, about 10 percent of Americans take the pill for the omega-3 fatty acids.

According to the National Institutes of HealthA study from the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology omega-3 fatty acid DHA in fish oil enhances B cell activity (a white blood cell), believed to prevent disease by reducing inflammation.

Findings show omega-3 fatty acids may help to:

Lower blood pressure
Reduce triglycerides
Slow the development of plaque in the arteries
Reduce the chance of abnormal heart rhythm
Reduce the likelihood of heart attack and stroke
Lessen the chance of sudden cardiac death in people with heart disease

Supplements are an unregulated industry so spending money on inferior products is a real concern.

The dark green rind is considered a fruit and comes from the same family of zucchini, pumpkin and other squashes. Studies have show that they are a natural diuretic known for secreting and promoting the flow of urine. Cucumbers can aid with kidney and urinary bladder disease as well as liver and pancreatic disease. Individuals with conditions such as high and low blood pressure have been know to benefit from cucumbers because of there potassium content.

The Best Way To Maintain YOUR Health:

Patients often ask what they can do to maintain their health. We recommend having a primary care doctor that knows you and is available to answer questions about your health and changing health. Annual blood testing is the most important step aging adults can take to prevent life-threatening disease. With blood test results, you can catch critical changes in your body before they manifest as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, or worse. Having the proper blood tests can empower you to enact a science-based disease-prevention program that could add decades of healthy life. Call us today to learn more about how you can take control of your health and wellness. 702-970-1111

Drinking a cup of ginger tea before traveling can help prevent the nausea and vomiting associated with motion sickness. You can also drink some at the first sign of nausea to relieve the symptom.
