Keeping a Fitness Mindset

Fit and Strong, Hiking

October is a month that I traditionally have a tough time keeping a fitness mindset. In years past, at the end of September, I participated in the Akron Marathon in a relay team or by running the half (2015 & 16 the team; 2017 & 2018 the half.) After that goal was achieved and October arrived, I was always felt a let down from goal achievement and a bit like taking a break. I haven't done a running race since the 2018 half, but still find that October's weather tends to make me feel like staying inside and less like enjoying outdoor fitness activities. Having Peanut (my dog) really helps me to get out and walk. This weekend I was looking forward to the color changes...

What are prebiotics?

What Are Prebiotics?

Fit and Strong, Food and Drink

What are prebiotics? How are they different from probiotics? We hear about both but it’s not always clear how they differ. Probiotics introduce microorganisms into the gut. Many people take probiotic supplements, but you can also eat things like fermented foods to introduce “good” bacteria into your system. I wrote a blog post a while ago about the value of probiotic foods. The purpose of probiotics is to add certain bacteria into our systems. Prebiotics serve a related but different function. They provide food for the microorganisms we’re trying to encourage to be in our system. Prebiotics are basically the food that bacteria eat to help them flourish and proliferate. If you're taking probiotics, making sure you eat prebiotics might help those bacteria you're introducing into your...

Getting Steps in Autumn

Fit and Strong, Hiking

One of my goals this time of year is to be outside and enjoy nature. I find that it's easy to get plenty of steps walking in nature and it's easy to get the steps when you're not thinking about it. Lately I've done some hiking and talking with friends. It's always a pleasure to walk and talk. It's also one of the prettiest times in nature here in Northeast Ohio -- Fall! I was lucky to be out in sunny warm weather and still get to see trees just beginning to change. One of my walks was at Hudson Springs Park, not too far from where I live. Jill and I took a short walk around Hudson Springs Lake with our dogs, Penny and Peanut....
