"The Wisdom of Eating Traditional Foods" with Dr. Liz Lipski, PhD, CCN, CHN
 | Since the beginning of human time people have passed knowledge about food, cultivation, and cooking methods down through generation after generation. Ancient wisdom enhanced mineral and nutrient bioavailability. Food and medicine were interwoven. Foods that were eaten were in harmony with our own biology. Since the industrial revolution all of this has changed, so that now what most of us consider to be food would be unrecognizable to George Washington or Dolly Madison. In traditional cultures, balancing health with lifestyle was a core belief. The diseases of modern civilization were rare. This session will focus on the wisdom of traditional foods. We'll also look at the health benefits when even small amounts of these foods are added back into the diet. Liz Lipski, PhD, CCN, CHN, is board certified in Clinical Nutrition & Holistic Nutrition. She is nationally known for her pioneering work and expertise in the field of nutrition, food allergy and sensitivity, and digestive health. Until recently she was the Director of Doctoral Studies and Educational Director at Hawthorn University. Liz is currently the Education Director of the Nutrition and Integrative Health Department at the Tai Sophia Institute, the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM), and the Autism Research Institute.

Low-intensity laser therapy (LILT) is defined to supply direct biostimulative light energy to the cells. While several studies have demonstrated that LILT has stimulating effects on bone cells and can accelerate the repair process of the bone, others reported delayed fracture healing or no effects after LILT. The aim of this article was to review the studies evaluating the biomodulation effects of LILT on bone-derived stem cells.To access relevant articles, searching in three electronic databases including PubMed, Google Scholar and Science Direct was conducted until April 2012. The key words used were low-level laser, low-intensity laser, low-power laser therapy, stem cell, bone marrow stem cell, bone and osteoblast. The articles that met the eligibility criteria were included in this review of literature.Twenty-five relevant articles (13 in vitro and 12 animal studies) were included. Eleven in vitro studies showed positive results with regard to acceleration of cell proliferation and differentiation. All animal studies showed improved bone healing in sites irradiated with low-intensity laser.Based on the results of the reviewed articles, low intensity laser therapy can accelerate bone healing in extraction sites, bone fracture defects and distraction osteogenesis, provided proper parameters were applied.

Background The identified preventable risk factors for primary headache in adolescents are smoking; consumption of coffee or alcoholic mixed drinks; physical inactivity; muscle pain in the head, neck, or shoulder region; and chronic stress.Objective To investigate the interrelation of headache with other health complaints and the specificity of the above-mentioned risk factors for headache in adolescents.Methods A total of 1,260 students (grades 10 and 11) filled in questionnaires on headache, dietary, and lifestyle factors. The type of headache and health complaints such as dizziness, abdominal pain, musculoskeletal pains, symptoms of possible fatigue syndrome, and psychic complaints were assessed.Results Isolated headache was found in 18% of the headache sufferers; most frequently isolated tension-type headache (78.2%). Only among adolescents with a combination of headache (mainly migraine) and other health complaints, significant associations for almost all analyzed risk factors were found. The strength of the associations with the considered risk factors was very similar in all three analyzed strata except for considerably lower odds ratios for isolated headache.Conclusion All analyzed risk factors are nonspecific for headache in adolescents because they also increase the risk for other health complaints. Interventions, therefore, should consider a holistic approach focusing not only on headache but also on a broader spectrum of health complaints.
