Heart-to-heart Q & A with Doctor Paolo Bellosillo
With Christmas just being around the corner, we felt like it was time to touch base with our favorite doctor and ask how 2016 has been for him. Doctor Paolo Bellosillo, our favorite nature therapy doctor answers a few questions for us this season of giving. Read on and learn more about what he has to say.
It's Xmas season once again, how
has 2016 treated you in terms of health and spreading the word about your
advocacy?
The
Mission of helping people Live A Legacy this 2016 has been a blast.
Starting of the year of 2016, many came for the need to detoxify and lose
weight. Towards the middle, chronic and degenerative diseases of the
heart and kidneys started piling with comorbidities existing in every
individual. The third quarter received much need to address cancer
patients while cascading various preventive medicine techniques to senior
citizens and the youth. Lastly the fourth quarter starting with October
became a preparation period for those who have chronic stress and fatigue who
are usually exposed to much pain due to inflammation, mostly professionals who
experience pain in the areas of the head, spine both cervical and lumbar and
lastly of the chest which is usually circulation based. You can say that a lot
of people are indeed in need for some healthy ageing.
What is the one thing you wish people
would make as part of their NY resolution?
Knowing
we only have one life, it is so valuable that in hope, I pray others would
reduce all practices that will prove to be a threat to life. An example is
smoking, drinking alcohol and eating beyond one’s capacity of unfriendly fats
and too much salt and sweets. Perhaps being mindful of one’s gift,
Intellect Will and Soul, sound decisions can be made. So think of
yourself and others too.
Do you think there will be more
heart related sickness in the future and how can people avoid it?
Well
policies exist as well as institutions to help mold the awareness of people
about what’s good and what’s not but certainly there are big factors that are
at play, personal decisions and dispositions, societal norms, product and
activity fads created by media cascade dependent on the period and season, ways
and means to cope with stress, urban and regional existing interplays of land
uses and activities which actually affect the movements and living of people;
there may be more but these certainly are factors that will dictate how much
heart related sickness would occur.
Know who
you are. You are Gods child and have been given one heart. Once it stops
beating you are gone forever. Know your role, you’re a team player in
your family and community. Others need you.Know your limits. Master
yourself. You can’t manage something you can’t measure. If it’s about
health, see your holistic medicine or integrative medicine specialist who will
view your health as a whole system and not by parts.
Commit to
good sound and safe change in your lifestyle, be it nutrition, fitness, sleep,
relationships and of course spirituality. Talk to your specialist for a
customized program.
Believe
the truth that while stem cell therapy can help repair and regenerate tissues
even that of the heart, on an acute episode or attack, stem cell may not right
away regenerate the infarct part of the heart, that part of the heart will die
and its function will be diminished to an extent that you might lose your life
hence knives and scissors would be the only way to help you- surgery. If
you can stay away from knives and scissors, do so, although it may help on
emergency cases much uncertainty is also present when one is opened.
What's one thing that people need
to avoid to make sure they don't trigger a heart attack?
Stress
brought about by lack of appropriate sleep, diet and exercises. When you sleep,
sleep without the phone the noise and the lights which hamper proper
sleep. When you feel like celebrating this season with cheese, protein
preservatives like ham and sweets like cakes, pastries and ice cream, making
these part of your daily diet is a no no, it will just cause more problems for
your heart as these substances will eventually cause the hardening and
stiffening of your arteries. Lack of proper coping with stress can cause
surge in stress hormones which eventually may cause rise in sugar and lipid
levels which further increase your cardiovascular disease risk, due to the
inflammation they bring. Going out on a daily high consumption of pro
inflammatory food without exercising at least for 30 minutes may cause build up
in plaque within your arteries and other blood vessels. All these things mentioned put your heart at risk, because you
failed to live a healthy lifestyle- live to the fullest by making sound and
calculated decisions that increase your life expectancy and longevity.
