We live in a world that often encourages us to prioritize convenience and overlook the long-term health effects of our daily decisions. Secondly, it is no secret that our healthcare system is flawed in many ways; some of those flaws make it easy for us to write off certain precautionary measures instead of spending less money. In the short term, we can save money, but in the long run, we can lose out if our wellness budget isn’t spent wisely.

Here’s the Thing: Being Well Costs Money.

It’s just the truth of the matter. It is, undeniably, cheaper (at least in the short term) to be unhealthy: Fast food/junk food is cheaper than organic whole foods, gym memberships, and trainers. The amount of time it takes to focus on wellness is just something not everyone can afford.

However, with that unfortunate truth comes an even more worrisome reality: Those who don’t take care of themselves will be forced to face the repercussions later in life. Think about it –if you drive a car and you’re skipping regularly scheduled maintenance, you’re putting cheap gas in the tank, and you’re going thousands of miles over your oil’s recommended lifespan, you wouldn’t expect your car to drive to 300,000 miles… you’d be lucky to hit 100k! But this isn’t a car we’re talking about… it’s your body!

This compilation of studies (https://bmcpublichealth.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1471-2458-13-813) shows, as predicted, the negative relation between weekly physical activity and the occurrence of Coronary Heart Disease in over 15,000 individuals. Meaning there is a direct correlation between exercise and preventing heart disease. Excercise is something you can do for FREE. Simultaneously, it will help you avoid the #1 killer in America. How’s that for return on investment?

Your Health Is Your Wealth

Maybe you’ve heard that phrase before, or maybe this is your first time; either way, the sentiment rings true. If you want to live the long, healthy, happy life you deserve, now is the time to invest in yourself. We plan for retirement, we plan for our kids’ college, we plan our big purchases and vacations, but where’s the wellness plan in your life? How do you expect to be your grandchildren’s best friend? How do you see yourself on your 50th wedding anniversary? Surely, your vision of the future is filled with life and excitement! Well, there’s really only one way to achieve true wealth: Health.

There are LOTS of ways to ensure you’re aging well and setting yourself up for a graceful second half of life. If you ask me, one of the greatest investments you can make in yourself is beginning Bio-identical Hormone Optimization Therapy. Men and Women alike get AMAZING results with our treatment plans here at New Leaf Wellness, and I can tell you firsthand that the patients we’ve had for over 10 years now are living proof that healthy aging is possible.

Our Bio-identical Hormone Optimization Therapy is incredibly powerful in combating the tell-tale symptoms of aging. The reason so many of us begin to feel old as we age is a decline in hormone production. Hormones control our bodily functions and mental well-being. Hormone replacement therapy gives us back our youth, literally.

 

“They help me get my life back-play, work, sex and feel great again! I feel young again!”
