ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS.
WE HAVE DR. NAMITA PUROHIT AND
FITNESS AND NUTRITION EXPERTS
IAN WEINBERG IN THE MIDDLE.
I GOT YOU GRIES OUT OF GOING TO
SHOW YOU GUYS OUT OF -- GUYS
OUT OF ORDER.
AND LET'S TALK ABOUT BULLIES
AND IF THAT'S A SUBJECT THAT
PEDIATRICIANS BRING UP.
SHOULD PARENTS BRING IT UP?
IS THAT SOMETHING WE TALK ABOUT
BEFORE IT OCCURS OR BEING
WITNESSED?
WITNESSED? >> I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT
BRINGING IT UP BEFORE IT STARTS
FOR BOTH PARTIES.
IT'S IMPORTANT FOR A PHYSICIAN
AND FOR THE PARENTS.
SO AS A PHYSICIAN, I ALWAYS ASK
THE PARENTS AND INDIVIDUALLY TO
THE KIDS IF THEY'RE FEELING
LIKE OR IF THEY'RE BULLIED OR
INTIMIDATED.
INTIMIDATED. I THINK IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT
TOPIC AND IT CAN CONTRIBUTE TO
ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION.
TALK ABOUT IT.
ASK YOUR PHYSICIAN, ESPECIALLY
YOUR KIDS' PHYSICIAN.
>> IF THE TOPIC IS BROUGHT UP,
HOPEFULLY, THEY'RE MORE LIKELY
TO BRING IT TO THE ATTENTION OF
AN ADULT.
AN ADULT.
AN ADULT. AND WE MENTIONED STRESS AND
DEPRESSION.
DEPRESSION. BEING A TEENAGER IS STRESSFUL
AND NOT THE HAPPIEST TIME.
HOW DO YOU KEEP AN EYE ON THAT
DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR?
>> IT'S IMPORTANT FOR THE
PARENTS.
PARENTS.
PARENTS. KIDS, SOMETIMES THEY DON'T OPEN
UP BECAUSE THEY FEEL LIKE MAYBE
THEIR PARENT WILL NOT TAKE IT
NORMALLY.
NORMALLY.
NORMALLY. >> THAT'S YOUR FEAR.
>> OR MAYBE JUDGMENTAL.
YES.
YES.
YES. WORK
YES. WORK WITH YOUR KIDS.
IF YOU NOTICE THEY'RE QUIET AND
FEELING SAD, I DON'T WANT TO GO
TO SCHOOL, LOOK FOR THOSE.
AND THEN ALSO WORK WITH THEM.
AND MENTION IT'S IMPORTANT HOW
THEY'RE FEELING TO EXPRESS
THEMSELVES TO THE PARENTS AND
OPEN UP AND COMMUNICATE.
AND WHEN YOU NEED HELP, GO TO
THE DOCTOR.
THE DOCTOR. >> AND THAT'S A GOOD CLUE THAT
YOU MENTIONED WHEN KIDS DON'T
WANT TO GO TO SLEEP.
AND IAN, WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT
THE ROLE OF EXERCISE FOR KIDS
AND ASLESS NTS AND --
ADOLESCENTS AND ADULTS IN TERMS
OF MOOD?
OF MOOD?
OF MOOD? >> IT'S A THING TO STATE YOUR
STATE.
STATE.
STATE. IF
STATE. IF YOU GET YOURSELF MOVING,
OFTEN TIMES, THAT HAS A BIG
IMPACT NOT JUST ON PHYSICAL
HEALTH, BUT MENTAL HEALTH AS
WELL.
WELL.
WELL. YOU'LL FEEL BETTER.
THE ENDORPHINS ARE THERE.
IF PEOPLE ARE FEELING GUILTY,
THEY WON'T BECAUSE THEY'RE
ACTIVE AND EXERCISING.
IT'S GREAT FOR KIDS AS WELL.
MY KIDS, THE ONE OLD ENOUGH TO
DO EXERCISE, WE GET OUTSIDE AND
PLAY AND HE'S HAPPIER.
>> WHY CAN'T WE CALL THAT PLAY
FOR GROWN-UPS?
FOR GROWN-UPS? I WOULD BE MORE WILLING.
>> COME PLAY AT OUR STUDIO ANY
TIME.
TIME.
TIME. >>
TIME. >> AND YOUR DEMONSTRATION
SHOWED US IF YOU'RE FEELING
DOWN OR OVERWEIGHT OR SOMETHING
IS BOTHERING YOU ABOUT GOING TO
THE GYM OR OUTSIDE, YOU CAN
EXERCISE AT HOME AND GET THE
GOOD CARDIO.
GOOD CARDIO. >> YOU JUST NEED A LITTLE
SPACE.
SPACE.
SPACE. AND THE BIGGEST THING TO KIND
OF RELIEVE THAT ANXIETY WHEN IT
COMES TO EXERCISE IS ACTION.
RIGHT?
RIGHT?
RIGHT? IF
RIGHT? IF WE'RE THINKING ABOUT
SOMETHING AND THINKING ABOUT
IT, WE'LL FEEL DOWN.
IF YOU TAKE A STEP TOWARD
RESOLVING IT, YOU TAKE STEPS
PAST THAT.
PAST THAT. >> I HEARD A PERSON SAY
SOMETHING, THEY CALLED IT THE
TRIPLE A THEORY.
ACTION ALLEVIATES ANXIETY.
>> YEAH.
>> YEAH.
>> YEAH. >> DO SOMETHING.
REMEMBER THAT.
REMEMBER THAT. IT WILL HELP.
LET'S TALK ABOUT -- YOU HAVE
GIVEN US A LOT TO CHEW ON ABOUT
THE WAYS TO ALINE YOUR INNER
AND OUTER LIFE.
YOU MENTIONED A FOCUS AND
PURPOSE IN LIFE.
THAT'S A TOUGH QUESTION.
IF YOU ASK PEOPLE WHAT'S YOUR
PURPOSE, NOT EVERYBODY DOES.
HOW DO WE THINK ABOUT THAT SO
WE DON'T FEEL BAD IF WE DON'T
HAVE A FOCUS AND WE CAN START
TO HONE IN ON OUR PURPOSE.
>> TUNING IN TO THAT AND HONING
IN TO THAT IS IMPORTANT.
IT'S NOT SOMETHING YOU FIGURE
OUT IMMEDIATELY.
OUT IMMEDIATELY. IT TAKES A WHILE.
YOU'RE BUILDING ON AWARENESS OF
WHAT WORKS FOR YOU, WHAT YOU
LIKE AND WHAT YOU DON'T LIKE.
AND GRADUALLY, YOU WANT TO
CONNECT TO A PURPOSE THAT'S
LARGER THAN THE SMALL STUFF IN
LIFE.
LIFE.
LIFE. LARGER THAN YOU AND LARGER THAN
YOUR WORK.
YOUR WORK. IT'S MUCH LARGER THAN THAT.
>> YOU MEAN THIS IS NOT MY
WHOLE PURPOSE RIGHT HERE?
BUT IT SEEMS EASY FOR SOME
PEOPLE.
PEOPLE.
PEOPLE. AND OCCASIONALLY, WE FEEL BAD
IF WE DON'T KNOW OUR PURPOSE.
BUT THE MISSION IS PARTLY THE
SEARCH.
SEARCH.
SEARCH. >> YOUR PURPOSE IS TO FIND YOUR
PURPOSE.
PURPOSE.
PURPOSE. >> THAT MAKES SENSE.
AND I HAVE TO TALK ABOUT DIETS.
>> FOR SURE.
>> LOW CARBS, TKEO -- KETO,
WHAT'S YOUR PHILOSOPHY ABOUT
THIS STUFF?
THIS STUFF? >> THE KEY FOR A DIET TO WORK
IS IT CAN'T BE A DIETMENT IT'S
SOMETHING YOU START AND STOP IN
SIX WEEKS.
SIX WEEKS. IT NEEDS TO BE A SUSTAINABLE
WAY TO EAT WITH YOUR LIFE
STYLE.
STYLE.
STYLE. IF
STYLE. IF IT WORKS, TRY THE
INTERMEDIATE FASTING.
INTERMEDIATE FASTING. GREAT.
GREAT.
GREAT. IF
GREAT. IF YOU CAN'T SUSTAIN THAT,
DON'T TRY THAT NEW PROGRAM.
WE ALL JUAN THE QUICK FIX.
BUT THE SECRET, THE MAGIC PILL
BEHIND EATING PROPERLY IS JUST
EAT PROPERLY AND FIND A WAY TO
DO IT CONTINUOUS.
I LIKE THE 80/20 APPROACH.
80% OF THE TIME YOU EAT WHOLE
FOODS, NONPROCESSED, NOT FAST
FOOD.
FOOD.
FOOD. AND
FOOD. AND 20% OF THE TIME, IF YOU
NEED FRESH BAKED CHOCOLATE CHIP
COOKIES, HAVE THEM.
BUT NOT EVERY DAY AND NOT ALL
THE TIME.
THE TIME.
THE TIME. THERE'S SO MANY DIFFERENT ONES
TO CHOOSE FROM.
IT'S OVERKEM WHEMING.
-- OVERWHELMING.
-- OVERWHELMING. >> IT IS.
>> IT IS.
>> IT IS. IF YOU DON'T KNOW RECIPES AND
HOW TO GET STARTED, IT'S
CHALLENGING.
CHALLENGING. >> IF ONE WORKS FOR YOU AND IS
SUSTAINABLE FOR YOU, THAT'S
GREAT.
GREAT.
GREAT. THAT'S PROBABLY ONE NA PIT IT
IS -- THAT FITS.
BUT YOU CAN'T EXPECT TO JUMP
FROM ONE TO THE NEXT BECAUSE
YOU KNOW SOMETHING WHO'S DOING
IT.
IT.
IT. YOU
IT. YOU HAVE TO FIND A PROGRAM THAT
WORKS WITH YOUR LIFE STYLE AND
FAMILY ENVIRONMENT.
FAMILY ENVIRONMENT. IF YOU HAVE KIDS, YOU CAN'T BE
ON A PALEO.
YOUR KIDS NEED THE THINGS ON
THE OTHER SIDE OF IT.
>> FINDING WHAT WORKS.
I LIKE THE SOUTH BEACH DIET FOR
THAT REASON.
THAT REASON. EVERYBODY CAN EAT IT OR TAKE
ONE THING OUT AND KEEP GOING.
AND THERE'S A WEIGHT LOSS PHASE
AND A MAINTENANCE PHASE.
IT'S NOT TEMPTING YOU TO SAY
I'M DONE WITH THAT.
I'M GOING TO BACK TO DAIRY
QUEEN.
QUEEN.
QUEEN. THERE'S NOTHING WRONG THE DAIRY
QUEEN.
QUEEN.
QUEEN. >>
QUEEN. >> WHEN YOU CUT SOMETHING OFF,
IT'S HARD.
IT'S HARD. IT'S TEMPTING.
IT'S TEMPTING. >> AND THEN ONE LAST QUESTION.
SINCE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
PHYSICALS FOR KIDS.
THERE'S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A
GENERAL PHYSICAL AND THE SPORTS
PHYSICAL THAT WE TAKE KIDS IN
FOR.
FOR.
FOR. CAN
FOR. CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THOSE
TWO?
TWO?
TWO? .
.
. >>
. >> FOR
. >> FOR ANNUAL CHECKUP, IT'S
ONCE A YEAR.
FOR SPORTS PHYSICAL, LIKE
FOOTBALL, BASKETBALL, WHICH CAN
CAUSE CONCUSSION OR HEAD
INJURY, WHICH IS LIKE THE
TRAUMA FOR THE KIDS, IT NEEDS A
CERTAIN RESOLUTION OVER TIME.
MORE MONITORING.
MORE MONITORING. AND IF A CHILD PLAYING HAD A
CONCUSSION OR LOSS OF -- OR
HEAD INJURY IN THE PAST, SO
THEY NEED TO BE MONITORED AND
EXAMINED.
EXAMINED.
EXAMINED. IT'S VERY IMPORTANT.
AND STARTING A SPECIFIC
EXAMINATION IN THE CHECKUP.
.
.
. >>
. >> THAT'S IMPORTANT.
WE KNOW SO MUCH MORE ABOUT HEAD
AND BRAIN INJURIES.
WE HAVE TO BE DOUBLE CAREFUL
WITH THAT.
WITH THAT. >> SINCE WE WERE TALKING ABOUT
FOOD, I WANTED TO TALK --.
>> WE HAVE TEN SEBD SECONDS --
SECOND SZ.
SECOND SZ. .
.
. >>
. >> FOOD
. >> FOOD -- SECONDS.
>> FOOD AFFECTS EMOTIONS.
ANIMAL-BASED DIETS GIVES YOU
