Staying Healthy, Living Longer - 7 Powerful Principles for a Healthier You! Paperback – January 1, 2021

by Mary Dicaro (Author)
4.7 out of 5 stars (21)
What if what you've been told about aging is wrong? What if I told you pain, and sickness are not a normal consequence of aging? Do you realize you can avoid the factors that contribute to poor health and a shortened life span? Do you believe you can restore health and youthful energy regardless of your age?
These are important questions that few of us consider until we are confronted with declining health, chronic pain, or a life-altering diagnosis. You are in control of your health destiny and can create a long, healthy life. Committing to a goal of better health is the first step toward filling the health prosperity bank.
As we approach retirement age and finally have time to enjoy life to the fullest, our bodies may have other plans! We want to dive fully into those things that make life enjoyable and bring a smile to our faces; Chasing our grandkids, golfing, traveling, biking, hiking, and gardening, yet in reality we find ourselves slowing down because of fatigue, weakness, poor mobility, or pain. This book challenges you to consider that there is a better way. While many Americans are living longer, we are not always enjoying longer health spans, and our quality of life is declining. Rates of chronic disease continue to rise due to a lack of focus on root causes and prevention of disease. By the time symptoms of disease develop, changes in the body's biology have already been in the making for many years.
What if I told you an unhealthy gut, stress and emotional trauma, and inflammation, are the cornerstones of pain and disease? Chronic low-grade inflammation is often the underlying culprit in creating many of the disease states we associate with aging-including heart disease, Alzheimer's, and arthritis as well as cancer and auto-immune disorders.
The question we need to answer is 'How do I turn off harmful Inflammation?' Re-directing our attention to what is fueling the internal fire of inflammation must be a top priority.
This book is a journey through the health trials and clinical experiences of the author and one that is familiar to many of us. It highlights the factors within our control to profoundly change the trajectory of our health by addressing the mind, body, and spirit. This is a heartfelt exploration that reveals the fundamental reasons why many of us have hit perplexing health potholes as we travel the road of life.
Health is not merely the absence of disease. The author carefully considers the many facets of creating true health and wellness. She reveals a Health Enhancing Life Protocol (HELP) comprised of 7powerful tools that have been studied extensively in the world of health and longevity. The good news is that anyone who wants to remain healthy or recover their health can be an active participant in the process. The simple interventions outlined in this book can turn the tide of aging in your favor.
Using a framework of Functional Medicine, she breaks open what is necessary to achieve a disease-free life and live with greater health, vitality, and purpose. It is an awakening to the truth of how we might heal the body, mind, and spirit, which is the essence of true and complete healing. You can positively impact your health span, life span and the aging process with these simple strategies starting today!

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

A native of Chicago, Illinois, Award-winning author, Mary DiCaro graduated from DePaul University, with a degree in Biological Sciences and Psychology. A natural love of science and a desire to help others prompted her to continue postgraduate education in Physical Therapy, completing the program at the University of Illinois at Chicago Medical.

Mary’s professional experiences encompass a variety of clinical care settings, including acute care, outpatient clinics, orthopedic clinic management as well as curriculum development and instruction for a Physical Therapy Assistant program.

In 1997, Mary took a bold step and moved to the beautiful Sonoran Desert of Arizona to advance her professional and personal life. Dedicated to health and fitness, she completed certifications for Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and Certified Personal Trainer, through the National Strength and Conditioning Association. For the last 25 years she has specialized in outpatient post-surgical, orthopedic and pain management.

While working as a therapist, Mary witnessed an increase in chronic pain and many conditions that seemed poorly understood and managed; many were preventable. Because of personal health challenges, she searched for answers that were absent from the disease-focused medical model of care, which focuses predominately on symptom suppression and less on underlying root causes. An exploration into natural health and nutrition led her to complete a certification in Holistic Nutrition and Wellness Coaching at Southwest Institute of Healing Arts in Tempe, Arizona.

Mary has shifted her current clinical practice toward an integration of nutrition, lifestyle, and the critical mind- body connection for healing and disease prevention. She incorporates the principles of Functional Medicine and has completed “Applying Functional Medicine, in Clinical Practice” (AFMCP) and “Advanced Practice Modules in Gastro-Intestinal Disorders” through the Institute for Functional Medicine at the Cleveland Clinic. She is a writer and speaker, teaching classes on Managing Pain, Prevention of Osteoporosis, Muscle Health and Fitness. She is the owner of Integrated Physical Therapy and Wellness in Phoenix, Arizona.

Mary enjoys lifelong learning, hiking, swimming, traveling, and spending time with her husband and family.
