Before we get to the links:
The health and safety of our patients and team is our highest priority. We are continuing to schedule by appointment only to allow for the thorough cleaning of surfaces between visits. We are limiting the number of people in the office at any given time, and we are following other suggested guidelines for safety and prevention to ensure a clean, stress-free environment for everyone.
If this crisis has showed us anything it’s how important it is to have a high level of durable baseline health and resilience—now more than ever!
Here are the links from our Rom Family Chiropractic Facebook page and all the good stuff we posted over the last week!
We like to post things on a wide variety of health topics, but it can all be broken down into 5 broad categories:
- Being well-adjusted
- Eating well
- Moving well
- Thinking well
- Sleeping well
Here are the links we posted from last week:
Exposure to SARS-CoV-2 Generates T-cell Memory in the Absence of a Detectable Viral Infection
A new study in Nature shows that not only do people infected with SARS-CoV-2 develop lasting T-cell immunity, but so do their close contacts who never experience a detectable infection and have no detectable antibodies.
The fact that exposure to SARS-CoV-2 can result in the development of more robust immunity (perhaps because of an immune system part-primed from earlier viral infections), rather than infection, is a positive reminder of how the circulation of viruses helps us to develop and maintain healthy immune systems capable of fighting off a variety of diseases.
Trying to avoid infection by staying away from people, insofar as that is possible, can be counterproductive as it can weaken our immune system by leaving us unexposed to a whole variety of pathogens.
If, as this paper points out, millions of people exposed to the virus are developing immunity without ever being infected or developing antibodies, what does that mean for reaching herd immunity? It must be closer than we think.
One year on: Unhealthy weight gains, increased drinking reported by Americans coping with pandemic stress.
61% of adults reported experiencing undesired weight change in the last year as a result of pandemic stress.
Given that obesity and poor metabolic health are the greatest immune compromising risk factors, it still makes the most sense to make lifestyle changes to be AS HEALTHY AS POSSIBLE!!
