Mindset Health Tip

Learning the power of the word YET is one of the ways you can develop a GROWTH MINDSET. As you can imagine, this is really important to us here at Mindset. This is one of the many ways we hope to help you, our community and the world!

Check out this quick article about 10 ways to develop a GROWTH MINDSET!

Functional Medicine Corner

A recent study published in JAMA Neurology has found that there are a few modifiable risks that can increase our chances of developing dementia in the future. These include:

• Social isolation

• Alcohol abuse

• Depression

• Hearing impairment

These are in addition to chronic conditions such as heart disease and diabetes. The good news is that if we actively work to make some adjustments in our daily lives to address the factors above, we can play a role in decreasing our chance for memory impairment in the future! Actions we can take include:

• Spend time with friends and loved ones

• Make time to enjoy hobbies that bring joy or peace

• Find a therapist to help process emotions and past trauma

• See your doctor to evaluate for hearing loss if there is concern

• Get enough good sleep

• Keep coming to the gym, for physical and mental health boosts

The good news is that we have some control over several aspects of our health, allowing us a greater chance of maintaining optimal brain function throughout our lifetime.

Member of the Month

Introducing Renee Huyck!

This incredible athlete is one tough cookie! She works hard here at Mindset and she is an incredible pitcher in her main sport of softball. If she is on the mound, you don’t want to be in the batter’s box.

Renee is a force to be reckoned with! She works hard, lifts heavy and focuses on her technique during every movement! She might be quiet at times but that is only because she is FOCUSED.

Give her some love as she is in training for her upcoming softball season!!!

Does Juicy Leaf use organic fruits and vegetables?

• We strictly use certified organic or local, organically grown produce unless an item is on the “EWG Clean Fifteen” list; e.g. pineapples, melons, etc.
• https://www.ewg.org/foodnews/clean_fifteen_list.php#.WlJKyVQ-eHo

What’s the difference between a juice and a smoothie?

• The main difference is fiber. Most of the insoluble fiber is removed in the juicing process.
• By taking the fiber out, you can pack more fruit & veggie nutrients into a juice than you can into a smoothie of the same size.
• The lack of insoluble fiber allows your body to rapidly absorb the nutrients while expending minimal digestive effort.
• Smoothies are made by pulverizing fruit/veggies with liquid in a blender. The insoluble fiber, which helps keep things moving through your system, is maintained in the process.

What are the benefits of juice?

• Several servings of fruit & veg nutrition effortlessly absorbed without energy taxing digestion.
• Easy way to incorporate more fruits and veg in diet than eating produce alone.
• Boosts immunity and energy. Alkalizing, chronic illness prevention, helps aid in weight loss, clear skin, healthy hair.
