She Thinks My Tractor's... helpful!

  • She Thinks My Tractor's...helpful

Dear Friends,
A few months ago one of my favorite patients who was a gentle soul of a man, passed away at 103 years old. What is hard to believe is that he served our country in WW2 hoping from island to island, fighting the Japanese. The Pacific theater was brutal but he endured it, served, and saved our country and our freedoms. That was the greatest generation!

About a decade or so ago he had come in to the clinic in his spry early 90’s. I could tell he was a little down when I asked him how he was doing, “I’m ok.” he said, “but my kids took away my tractor today.” When I inquired as to why, he informed me that his wife had fallen down outside and he couldn’t get her up so he went and retrieved his tractor and used the bucket to lift her up! 🙂

Isn’t that resourcefulness incredible?! She had to be pretty nervous watching him coming at her with the tractor bucket especially with how bad her osteoporosis was. He got her up and walking though so it appears one can work heavy machinery into the later decades of life!

The different facets of our being are that way. Sometimes our mind, body, and spirit each can fall down on their own. When that happens, they can drag the other parts down if you don’t figure out a way to pull pick them up.

It is important to use all the resources you have to do it. Whether it be friends, family, healthcare practitioners, life coaches, spiritual guidance from clergy etc. Your own inner desire for reaching your full potential relies on your ability to understand you are not in this game alone.

It is not a sign of weakness to need a hand to help you up (or a tractor bucket for that matter!) It is a sign that that you acknowledge that we are all in this game together and getting through it as a team is far more gratifying than going it alone.

So if you’re down, reach out for some help and lift yourself up…bucket or not.

Below is our recommendations for osteoporosis. If you are going to have bones strong enough to handle a tractor, a couple of key nutrients/ingredients are needed.

  1. Exercise -walking and some weight bearing exercise are key
  2. Good nutrition- high quality dairy meaning whole fat.
  3. Bone broth 
  4. Cruciferous family of veggies- broccoli, kale, brussel spouts, cauliflower, etc

Nutritionally we use:

1. Calcifood– wafer of bone. The term “like feeding like” applies here. Gives all the nutrients known and unknown needed for bone health.

2. Ostrophin PMG– has other key ingredients that help stimulate bone formation and repair. Used for speedy bone repair from fractures and breaks also.

3. Bone Health Pack– if you are looking for a way to take the guess work out of it, the health pack comes with the following supplements in a month supply:

As always, if you have any questions or need someone to reach out to, we are here for you. 

God Bless,

Dr. Dan

Testimonial

Kurt Bassuener, President of MWS Associates, Inc.

MWS Associates has leased office space in the Business Center since the inception of our company in 2018 and from 2015-2018 with the previous company that I worked for.  The Business Center was the clear choice for us to locate our main office for several reasons: location, cost effectiveness, reliable high-speed internet, services offered and full access to the conference room.  It truly offers everything our company needs to headquarter our business from without the hassle of owning our own office building with the maintenance, yard care and snowplowing that goes along with ownership.  

A major benefit for us is the ability to host in-person and online meetings in the newly renovated, state-of-the-art conference room.  COVID changed many aspects of our business with a major increase in online meetings being one of them.  Many companies struggled with technology issues to host or participate in online meetings with poor audio, video quality, background noise and unprofessional business settings negatively affecting meetings.  The size, layout and quality of the A/V equipment of the conference room now allows us to host annual company-wide in-person meetings as well. Every October we bring our entire staff in from around the country for weeklong meetings and the conference room comfortably allows us to host 20+ people.  The setting also allows us to host on-site meetings with key accounts.  Clients appreciate being able to combine a business trip with bringing their family to enjoy a few extra days to experience all Door County has to offer.
