‘How To Protect And Enhance Your Physical And Cognitive Health Right Through Practice And Retirement’
If you put bad fuel into your car, you won’t be surprised when it breaks down. Yet, when we put bad fuel into our bodies, why are we surprised when we get ill or feel sluggish in the office, and outside?
In this webinar, Colin Smith gives us the benefit of his experience during his 30 year career as a nutritionist, counsellor and physical therapist. He focusses on both our physical and cognitive health, to raise our awareness of the importance of lifestyle and diet if we are to maintain a healthy mind and body to cope with the pressures of practice and carry that forward into retirement. And Colin outlines the typical symptoms, ailments and conditions that we can expect if we don’t…. and perhaps you will recognise some in yourself.
He deals with topics such as:
- the foods that damage the brain, and why dementia is being called diabetes 3

- how toxins can actually cause the brain to shrink and harden
- why low cholesterol can cause poor cognitive health

- are you suffering from adrenal fatigue, and how to reverse it
- the importance of keeping your mind healthy now but also into your retirement so that you can live a long and healthy life with your mind intact
- the importance of the proper balance of omega 3 and 6
