Weight Control

“Dr. Kim, I can do anything to lose weight.  Except for diet control,” is a statement many men and women hear and say, to and from their peers.  How good would it be if one could eat all they would like to and lose weight at the same time?  Acupuncture and Asian medicine are the answer to this question.

Health Tip: Traumatic Events May Affect Sleep Suggestions to Get a Better Night’s Rest

If you’ve been traumatized by an act of violence, a car accident, or the death of a loved one, the repercussions can affect your daily life, including your sleep.  The National Sleep Foundation describes how a traumatic event can cause sleep disturbances, and offers suggestions to help you sleep better:

Balancing Work and Being a Caregiver

Balancing Work and Being a Caregiver

According to a Metlife Mature Market Institute report, June 2003, an increasing percentage of the workforce is actively involved in caring for a relative or friend age 50 or over.  Studies have shown that nearly half of those caregivers are men.
Both women and men are equally likely to report themselves as the primary caregiver.  Men and women are also indicating that they are both taking responsibility to provide help with everyday task including:

Declaring Your Interest

Declaring Your Interest

We’ve all encountered people who drew our interest.  Sometimes we interact with them daily, while others attract us by their creative accomplishments without even having met them.  How do we let them know that they’ve attracted our attention?  Fearful of rejection or negative reactions, we often choose to let opportunities pass by.  It’s challenging to meet a compatible partner, so we need to question the wisdom of letting opportunities pass us by.

When Times Seem Difficult

When Times Seem Difficult

The   news is everywhere that “times are tough.”  It’s easy to become fearful and panicky about the future.  Homes and jobs are being lost and people are becoming desperate.  During difficult times fear and panic are contagious.  Focusing on within becomes the only choice for balance.  What do I mean by “focusing on within?” 

The Marvels of Blood

The Marvels of Blood

As any plastic surgeon can tell you, blood is essential to life and to healing.  This crimson elixir was recently reviewed in an article by Natalie Angier in the New York Times.  She explained that humans are born with about a pint of blood and that this grows to about four or five quarts by adulthood.  The stuff is precious: if at any point someone suddenly loses about a third of their blood volume, they must get a transfusion or risk meeting their maker.

The Los Angeles Caregiver Resource Center

The Los Angeles Caregiver Resource Center

The Los Angeles Caregiver Resource Center (LACRC), a program of the USC Davis School of Gerontology, is a nonprofit organization funded in part by the California Department of Mental Health.  LACRC is part of a statewide system of resource centers serving family caregivers.  Our mission is to “help families and communities master the challenges of caring for persons with brain impairing conditions, such as Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, MS, ALS, Parkinson’s and traumatic brain injury.”  LACRC serves the entire L.A. County and have offices in Alhambra, Lancaster and in Los Angeles at USC.

The Vitamin D Dilemma

The Vitamin D Dilemma

Recently, controversy emerged about whether sun exposure is necessary for creating vitamin D.  Vitamin D is naturally produced in the body by ultraviolet sun light exposure.  Vitamin D is necessary for your health and may prevent prostate, colon, breast, and other cancers.  Vitamin D is essential for bone health, immune system functioning, and more.  Just five to 10 minutes of UV (ultraviolet) exposure from the sun two to three times a week over a small area of skin is sufficient for most caucasians to create vitamin D.  Further exposure actually destroys the vitamin, decreasing vitamin D levels.  Keep in mind that even when you wear a high SPF sunscreen, some UV reaches the skin, and this may be plenty for fair-skinned individuals. 

Affordable Treatments at Infinity Medspa

Affordable Treatments at Infinity Medspa

With the slowing economy and more Americans tightening up their budgets to make ends meet, aesthetic treatments may seem like a luxury.  Still, many people are finding alternative ways to look younger and feel better by selecting non-invasive treatments to improve their appearance.  Infinity MedSpa offers several anti-aging treatments at a fraction of the cost of cosmetic surgery treatments. 

Childhood Decay Rising

Childhood Decay Rising

What is the best investment today?  Your health!  In these uncertain financial times, we need to focus on the future.  We are a product of the information generation with the Internet a click away, we can educate ourselves on any subject of interest.  Nutrition, fitness and health articles dominate television and magazines.  The problem is we aren’t using this information to benefit our children!

Tiredness

Tiredness

Tiredness is one of the most common presenting symptoms in Western patients.  Very often it is the main or only symptom of which a patient complains.  Tiredness as a main presenting symptom is discussed in Oriental medicine under the heading of “exhaustion.” It describes not only a symptom, i.e., tiredness, but also its underlying cause, i.e., deficiency of the body’s qi.

To Watch the News or Not To Watch the News That is the Question

To Watch the News or Not To Watch the News That is the Question

With all that is going on in the world, our country, our state, the economy, our society, illnesses, diseases, and our own life, it can all get a little overwhelming.  It is not surprising we may not want to watch the news as it just adds to our anxiety.  Then we may second-guess ourselves, as friends or family may be so on top of all that is going on in the news.  They may even question us as to why we don’t watch the news as we need to be informed.
