Disease Experts Address Mistrust and Misinformation Among Black Adults to Increase Update of COVID-19 and Flu Vaccines
For Friday February 5: From 7:00 AM – 1:00 PM EASTERN
Recent surveys show that in the US, Black adults are more worried about co-infection with COVID-19 and influenza (flu) than White and Hispanic adults. However, despite this concern, a large percentage of Black adults say they will not get a COVID-19 vaccine when eligible, and they are either unsure about getting or will not get a flu vaccine this season. This reflects a long history of mistrust of the healthcare system and misinformation around vaccination that healthcare professionals must address.
With COVID-19 vaccinations now underway, the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases (NFID) is set to release the latest survey results on beliefs and attitudes toward vaccination against flu and COVID-19 among US Black adults.
While there has been progress in flu vaccine uptake across the US, there is still a critical need to increase the number of people getting vaccinated, especially in communities of color who bear a disproportionate burden of serious flu-related illness and are also disproportionately affected by COVID-19.
NFID President Patricia N. Whitley-Williams, MD, says, “In the midst of the pandemic, we need to continue to focus on increasing vaccination rates among those who are at higher risk of severe complications from COVID-19 and flu, including Black adults, many of whom have chronic health conditions that put them at greater risk. We need to understand and acknowledge concerns among communities of color, so that we, as healthcare professionals, can help build trust in vaccines.”
On Friday, February 5, Dr. Whitley-Williams will be available to discuss the persistent gaps and racial disparities in vaccination coverage. She will review the new NFID survey findings and explain the urgent need to encourage individuals to get vaccinated against both flu and COVID-19.
Why Seeing a Chiropractor Can Help Your Back Injury
Nearly all people suffer from back pain at some point in life. For some people, the pain subdues after a few days, but the pain can persist for months or even years for others. If back pain is causing you discomfort or interfering with your everyday life, it’s time to visit a chiropractor.
What is Back Pain?
Back pain is a feeling of stiffness or tension in the back. It is a common health condition that obstructs people from taking part in their day-to-day life. Back pain’s main culprits are bending down in the wrong direction, an accident, or lifting heavy items. Chronic back pain doesn’t only affect seniors; it is also common in young and middle-aged adults.
Can a Chiropractor Help with Back Pain?
Before trying other types of treatments, people consider conservative approaches first. Some common conservative approaches to back pain include oral pain medications, chiropractic care, and physical therapy. Before embarking on surgery and injections, people try those kinds of treatments to resolve back pain.
What Kind of Conditions Does a Chiropractor Treat?
Chiropractors mainly deal with spine-related complications. It could be a pain in the upper back, lower back, or it might be neck pain. Back pain may result from bad sitting habits or injury from work or accidents. Additionally, chiropractors treat shoulder and knee injuries too.
What to Expect During Your First Chiropractic Visit
Your chiropractor will start by taking in-depth medical and back pain history during your first chiropractic appointment. The chiropractor will want to know when you started experiencing the pain you feel. They will also want to know whether the pain resolves by itself.
After understanding your medical history, the chiropractor will conduct a physical exam, including respiration, blood pressure, and pulse tests. Suppose your pain results from being involved in an accident. In that case, a car accident chiropractor will also perform neurological or orthopedic tests to determine your posture, muscle strength and tone, and range of movement.
Chiropractic care is not a one-day activity. Sometimes, a patient is required to see their chiropractor once or twice a week. If a patient has an acute condition, especially after an accident, they may be needed to see the chiropractor daily. How often to see a chiropractor depends on whether you have chronic or resolvable problems. People with chronic pain are required to see a chiropractor regularly, while those with resolvable pain may see a chiropractor once or several times in a lifetime.
How to Fuel Your Body up for a Workout Naturally
Have you ever struggled to finish a workout? Many times the reason is eating the wrong fuel before exercising. Learning how to eat for the most energy will help you make the most of your training sessions.
Antioxidant Nutrition Bars
Eating properly is easier said than done. Working is stressful and takes up large chunks of time. Cooking a healthy meal from scratch can take a lot of willpower. The key is to keep a few antioxidant nutrition bars handy. They contain a lot of nutrients like protein, fats, and fibers. Fats in nuts and organic plant-based sources are a great source of energy. Eating these in the middle of the day will revamp your energy levels. They also are a great choice a few minutes before a workout. Jecabar is an example of a nutritious choice. Bars like these come in multiple flavors to make it easier to form healthy eating habits.
Drink Plenty of Water
This seems obvious to most people. The problem is sometimes people simply forget. Hydration will give you greater endurance by helping your body perform respiration. Most people don’t realize their lungs contain a lot of water. That is why dehydrated people often struggle to breathe. The reason is water keeps the lung’s lining moist and effective.
Eat Plenty of Protein
A heavy workout will tear your muscles. This is a good thing because small tears make your muscles stronger. Your body will progress faster if you eat plenty of protein. The amount you should eat depends on how much muscle you want to build. Many experts recommend eating at least .36 grams of protein for every pound of body weight. Many weightlifters commonly eat over 100 grams of protein a day. This will make sure that there is plenty of protein to help build muscle.
Natural sources of protein are meats, nuts, and plant-based protein. Those who eat meat tend to stick to lean meat like steak, chicken, and fish. Nuts are also a healthy source of protein. Others will eat plant-based protein powder that is made of crushed peas, broccoli, and other greens.
Eat Fruits and Vegetables
These are a strong source of amino acids and vitamins. A healthy mix of these helps a lot to speed your recovery time. People who eat a lot of fast food have slower recovery times than those with healthy diets. They also get sick more often. Dietary supplements can help, but they won’t replace a natural source that is easier to absorb.
A balanced diet will ensure you keep a steady supply of energy throughout the day. High energy is key to sticking to your workout routine. The key is trying out a mix of these proven methods to see what works for you.
5 Types of Versatile Exercise Equipment When You're Looking for a Whole-Body Workout
Fitness enthusiasts have a large selection of equipment to choose from. However, not all pieces of equipment are the same. Some offer a higher reward-cost ratio and better results in terms of improved athletic performance and physique.
If you've got a plan for building a killer at-home gym using only the most essential exercise equipment, you'll want to check out these five types of versatile exercise equipment for a whole-body workout.
Medicine Balls
For a workout that incorporates the core (the most important and often-overlooked muscle group in terms of functional strength), you need at least one medicine ball. In addition to building the core, medicine balls can also help build stabilizer muscle groups that assist the larger muscles in heavy lifts.
Popular medicine ball exercises include circles, the single-leg deadlift, the Russian twist, and the side lunge.
Kettlebells
Kettlebells are a staple of any effective full-body workout. The sheer volume of exercises that can be performed using kettlebells alone sets them apart as superior options for achieving maximum results with minimal investment.
Best of all, kettlebells are a much smaller piece of equipment compared to some of the other options here. A standard set of 5-10 pairs of kettlebells can fit in even the most cramped spaces.
bioDensity
The bioDensity system has revolutionized the at-home fitness industry. This system is made to help you exercise several different parts of your body. Developed and patented by the leading firm Performance Health Systems, the company cites research showing that bioDensity has the capacity to:
• Improve bone density to prevent osteoporosis.
• Improve blood sugar management for patients with type 2 diabetes.
• Increase blood circulation.
• Lift mood.
Jump Rope
Jump rope is a classic piece of DIY gym equipment. Whether you want to keep your heart rate up between sets or want to warm up before getting into a lifting session, you should have jump ropes on hand.
Like the kettlebell, a jump rope is durable, small, and relatively inexpensive, making it an ideal investment.
Weight Vest
The main problem with doing bodyweight exercises like pull-ups, sit-ups, and push-ups is that once you’ve adjusted to your bodyweight and performing 50 or more reps is no longer a challenge, these exercises lose some of their value.
A great way to counter your increased strength and maintain the effectiveness of these exercises is to use a weight vest that you can stack weight on to keep your workouts engaging.
Even if you don’t have a lot of space for new equipment, you can get the most out of your workouts with a few key pieces of equipment. The items listed here are versatile so that you can effectively strengthen your whole body.
Make ‘Go on a Diet’ Resolutions Obsolete with the Whole Person Integrative Eating Program
San Francisco, CA, January 18, 2021 — What if you never again need to make a New Year’s resolution to lose weight or “go on a diet” because your most-of-the-time way of eating empowers you to eat and weigh less? Original, pioneering research by holistic nutrition researcher Deborah Kesten, M.P.H., and behavioral scientist Larry Scherwitz, Ph.D.—authors of the award-winning Whole Person Integrative Eating: A Breakthrough Dietary Lifestyle to Treat the Root Causes of Overeating, Overweight, and Obesity—reveals that replacing the complex reasons you overeat— called“overeating styles”—with the scientifically sound Whole Person Integrative Eating (WPIE) dietary lifestyle (meaning, WPIE is a way of life; it’s not a traditional diet) may make weight-loss resolutions obsolete.
“Now is the time to ‘reset’ and rethink what and how we eat; to replace traditional dieting with a scientifically sound way of eating that lessens overeating and that leads naturally to weight loss, health and healing,” says Kesten.
Kesten and Scherwitz share a simple yet powerful premise: Identify the reasons you overeat (your overeating styles) and gain weight—with the illuminating self-assessment quiz—then overcome overeating and lose weight by replacing your overeating styles with the antidotes: the elements of the Whole Person Integrative Eating program.
By shedding light on the root causes of overeating, Kesten and Scherwitz present a program that empowers readers with a personalized plan, and in turn new hope and new choices to help them reduce overeating, lose weight and keep it off.
WPIE is not a diet that a person goes on … then off. It is a scientifically sound, dietary lifestyle designed to be practiced for a lifetime.
"If people follow the revolutionary program outlined in this game-changing, insightful book, it may be the most helpful step they can take toward losing weight and keeping it off," says bestselling author Kenneth Pelletier, M.D., Ph.D., clinical professor of medicine at University of California School of Medicine, San Francisco.
The authors’ paradigm-shifting message is that food influences not only the physical dimensions of health, but also our emotional, spiritual and social well-being. Their dietary lifestyle can build bridges between the millions who struggle with overeating and weight issues and the medical community. And it can inspire us all to re-envision our relationships with food, eating and weight, so that each time we eat, we are nourished … for life.
Deborah Kesten, M.P.H.,is an international nutrition researcher, award-winning author and health journalist, with a specialty in preventing and reversing obesity and heart disease. She is also an experienced, expert speaker and presenter—from TV and podcast interviews to large conferences and small-group workshops.
Kesten served as Nutritionist on Dean Ornish, M.D.’s first clinical trial for reversing heart disease through lifestyle changes, the results of which were published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. She was Director of Nutrition at cardiovascular clinics in Europe and on the Board of Directors of the American Heart Association, San Francisco.
Kesten has published more than 400 nutrition and health articles. Her first book, Feeding the Body, Nourishing the Soul, received the first-place gold award in the Spirituality category from the Independent Publisher Book Awards. Whole Person Integrative Eating has been honored with the No.1 gold, best-book award in the Health category by Book Excellence Awards and is a No. 1 Amazon best seller. Kesten is a VIP Contributor at Arianna Huffington’s Thrive Global, and is married to behavioral scientist and co-author of Whole Person Integrative Eating, Larry Scherwitz, Ph.D.

Post-Traumatic Thriving
Los Angeles, CA, January 18, 2021 — Is there a science to survival, or are some people simply born with elastic emotional exoskeletons that bounce back readily following even the most traumatic of experiences?
To uncover the answer, world-renown expert on disasters and trauma Dr. Randall Bell undertook unprecedented research, juxtaposing outcomes of scientific studies with stories of real people who have not just survived, but have used their trauma as their fuel to thrive to uncover common denominators. He shares his remarkable insights in his new book, Post-Traumatic Thriving: The Art, Science, & Stories of Resilience.
Dr. Bell sits down with survivors of the Holocaust; murder-victim’s families; crime victims; suicide survivors; and those who’ve experienced homelessness, disasters, addictions, depression, death, divorce, disabilities, defeats and disease to explore the rare mindset of the post-traumatic thriver.
He shares with readers stories of remarkable resilience, including the following:
• A deaf man with a glass eye invented the electric guitar and became a household name, remarkably wealthy and most importantly, happy.
• A convicted murderer took responsibility for the damage he caused, graduated with honors from college, became a minister and turned around the hearts of the most hardened criminals.
• A girl born with cerebral palsy landed the world’s first starring role on national television and spoke at the White House three times.
• A woman hid in a basement for years and lost her entire family in the Holocaust. She eventually found true love and paints stunning artwork.
• The sister of a murder victim helped millions of women in toxic domestic relationships.
• A woman’s car crash resulted in an addiction to prescription drugs, a divorce, a loss of her children and a cot in a homeless shelter. She has rebuilt it all back and more.
• A man set to go to the Olympics had his hopes dashed by Jimmy Carter and went on to build a worldwide business empire.
Ultimately, Dr. Bell documents the science of happiness, as well as the individual styles and common thread that all post-traumatic thrivers have to emerge with a fulfilling life. When trauma hits, your most significant decision will be to dive, survive or thrive. If you choose to thrive, this book is for you.
As an economist, Dr. Randall Bell has consulted on more disasters on earth than anyone in history and is widely considered the world’s top authority in the field of post-traumatic thriving. His clients include the Federal Government, State Governments, International Tribunals, major corporations and homeowners. Dr. Bell believes that “the problem is not the problem — the problem is how we react to the problem.”
Often called the “Master of Disaster,” Dr. Bell is squarely focused on authentic recovery and resilience. His research has been profiled on major television shows and featured in numerous magazines and the international media. More information can be found at www.posttraumaticthriving.com.

Providence Heights Brings Renewed Hope to Seattle’s At-Risk Women
Seattle, WA, January 18, 2021 — Seattle spends more than $1 billion per yearon fragmented programs to support its homeless, according to Puget Sound Business Journal. This figure is staggering yet offers no guarantees that these vital services will be available from one year to the next. Too much hinges on donations and government programs — dollars that hang in the balance relative to the local economy. Women and children are especially vulnerable to the dangers of living on the streets or in unsafe environments, and one woman who has survived unthinkable adversity has founded an organization unlike most others.
In 2018, Christine Soule launched Providence Heights, a Christian-based nonprofit designed to empower Seattle’s women in need through housing, employment opportunities and personal development programs. The organization’s business model includes multiple sources of revenue to generate a sustainable income, something Soule likes to call Capitalism for the Poor. Additionally, “Our unique retail space integration will secure revenue as well as provide apprenticeship, jobs and entrepreneurial skills,” Soule explains.
The initial Phase I launch will provide housing and resilient growth programs for over 100 women at risk of losing their homes, or who simply need opportunities to regroup and equip themselves to not just survive but to thrive. Also for those who have come out of a program such as the Union Gospel Mission and are fully prepared to commit to changing the trajectory of their lives.
Phase II aims to more than double the capacity and provide housing for more than 200 women, including those with children. Once the revenue stream is firmly established in this phase, Providence Heights will enter Phase III — the final phase — when the organization will replicate this model from city to city. They hope to also empower similar organizations to use its successful blueprint to help those they serve.
Providence Heights Founder and Chief Executive Officer Christine Soule is a lover of people and passionate about leading them toward a restored and dignified life. From her personal experience, she has great compassion for homeless and abused women. She co-founded The Purpose and is a philanthropist, author and inventor. Her recently released book, Broken and Beautiful, chronicles her remarkable journey from trauma to triumph. Christine is also a mother of five and married to Mitch, the love of her life.
