After a concussion, adolescents who engaged
in the highest levels of cognitive activity took the
longest to fully recover from their symptoms, ac-
cording to a study in the February 2014 Pediat-
rics.
The study, Effect of Cognitive Activity Level on
Duration of Post-Concussion Symptoms, pub-
lished online Jan. 6, tracked 335 people ages 8 to
23 who visited a sports concussion clinic between
October 2009 and July 2011 after suffering a con-
cussion, according to the American Academy of
Pediatrics.
Participants reported whether they engaged in
complete cognitive rest, minimal cognitive activity
(no reading or homework, and less than 20 min-
utes per day of online activity and video games),
moderate cognitive activity (reading less than
10 pages per day, and less than one hour total
of homework, online activity and video games),
VLJQLFDQWFRJQLWLYHDFWLYLW\UHDGLQJOHVVDQGGR-
ing less homework than usual), and full cognitive
activity.
Those in the highest quartile of cognitive ac-
tivity took approximately 100 days on average
to recover from symptoms, compared to approx-
imately 20 to 50 days for patients in the lower
three quartiles.
The study adds support to recommendations
from the American Academy of Pediatrics and
other groups in favor of academic accommoda-
tions that allow cognitive rest for students recov-
ering from concussions, which may speed the
recovery process.
The study found patients in the three lower
quartiles of cognitive activity had similar durations
of symptoms, which suggests that complete ab-
stinence of cognitive activity may be unnecessary.
The American Academy of Pediatrics is an or-
ganization of 60,000 primary care pediatricians,
pediatric medical subspecialists and pediatric
surgical specialists dedicated to the health, safety
and well-being of infants, children, adolescents
and young adults.
See www.aap.org for more information.
Concussion victims with the highest amount
of cognitive activity after their injury took
approximately 100 days on average to re-
cover from symptoms, compared to approx-
imately 20 to 50 days for patients who did
less activity, according to a new study.

n the feld of psychiatry, many people ask if depres-
sion isn't normal. Depression can mean many things
to many different people. Normal in this case means
what average people go through.
There are different examples of what constitutes
depression. One common kind of depression is the
depression of loss.
Nowadays, this might mean loss of a job. There are
a whole host of symptoms that one might experience if
their livelihood is threatened. For some people it may
be the loss of a love object the death of a spouse or
a friend. And as trivial as it might sound, even the loss
of inanimate objects such as a favorite car can trigger
grief. A person may feel gloomy, sad, worried, frightened, even hopeless.
The stress of a job change is compounded in diffcult economic times
because the loss is not easily corrected by fnding a new job. Very often
people may feel this devastation for a time, but fnd ways of coping with
the problem. Other times the loss triggers a mood that one doesn't readily
overcome.
On the other hand sometimes there is no trigger and depression comes
out of the blue. A frst episode can occur at almost any stage of life.
Whether triggered or spontaneous, a person cannot always talk them-
selves out of a depression. Even the encouragement of family and friends
is not enough to bring back the joy in life.
n severe depression the inability to enjoy any facet of life is called anhe-
donia, or as one patient said, t's the opposite of hedonism.
Biologically caused depressions often have physical symptoms:
1. A loss of appetite or its opposite, overeating;
2. Waking up too early or sleeping all the time;
3. A loss of interest in usual activities or agitation, just not being able to
sit still.
A particular feature of some biologic mood disorders is feeling worst
upon waking, gradually getting better as the day goes on. The next morn-
ing one fnds herself or himself back in the pit again.
When hit by one form of depression or another, one decides whether
to get professional help based on many considerations. f it's a frst-time
event, the tendency is to try to ride it out, hoping that it will go away.
Some say, t's my fault that 'm depressed. just have to think right and
'll get better. Or some people just pull inwards and don't have the energy
to move, much less go to a psychiatrist.
Talking therapy and often medications can pull one out of a depression
faster and in the case of recurring depressions keep them from coming
back.
f there is weight loss, inability to sustain oneself and/or suicidal ideation,
it is all the more important to seek help. t's better to get help sooner than
later when there is any question of a person's being safe.
There are some people who never experience a loss deeply or who
always bounce back without diffculty. Some people are content with their
lives and themselves.
For the 25 percent of the population who experience at least one epi-
sode of major depression (clinically signifcant depression) it is important
to know that help is at hand and that can make a dramatic difference in the
course of the illness.

Americans eat out at fast food or dine-in restaurants
four or five times a week. Just one of those meals might
contain more than an entire days recommended amount
of sodium.
The Centers for Disease Control has strategies for
health departments and restaurants to work together to
offer healthier choices for consumers who want to lower
their sodium intake. The report, From Menu to Mouth:
Opportunities for Sodium Reduction in Restaurants, is
published in the Jan. 23 issue of CDCs journal, Prevent-
ing Chronic Disease.
On average, foods from fast food restaurants con-
tain 1,848 mg of sodium per 1,000 calories and foods
from dine-in restaurants contain 2,090 mg of sodium per
1,000 calories.
The U. S. Dietary Guidelines recommend the general
population limit sodium to less than 2,300 mg a day. Too
much sodium can cause high blood pressure, one of the
leading causes of heart disease and stroke.
The bottom line is that its both possible and life-sav-
ing to reduce sodium, and this can be done by reduc-
ing, replacing and reformulating, said CDC Director
Tom Frieden, MD. When restaurants rethink how they
prepare food and the ingredients they choose to use,

The hCG Diet...Is it Right For You?
WRITTEN BY: Dr. Sam Jonuzi
Integrative Medical Center
Have you been
working hard for
a long time to
lose weight and
are frustrated and
ready to give up
because you still
do not see the
evidence of your
hard work?
Do you eat well and exercise and wonder
why you cant lose weight?
Do you finally want to get control of your
weight but need to see quick results in or-
der to stay motivated?
Have you reached a plateau in your
weight loss efforts that you cant seem to
break through?
Do you have a few extra pounds that you
would be happier without?
Are you grossly overweight and wonder
if there is anything that can help you?
Do you hate exercise?
Do you want to lose a pound a day and
then KEEP IT OFF?
Any one of the above situations and
many more can be satisfied through the
hCG Diet Program, hCG has helped
thousands of people lose both a little
and a lot of weight. It is administered by
an injection which you will learn how
to give yourself. Wait! Dont stop read-
ing! Most patients who anticipate starting
the hCG Diet worry about the injections.
However, believe it or not, the injections
become one of the least concerning as-
pects. By far the majority of people ex-
claim things like:
I cant believe how easy that was: or I
dont even feel them!:
or The needles are so thin and small!
Even patients on their 2nd or 3rd cycle
prefer to use the injections. There is no
doubt you can do this, but the choice is
yours.
The hCG injections or Sublingual is cou-
pled with a 500 calorie diet. The 500 cal-
ories are comprised of very specific foods
and beverages and the hCG will help pre-
vent you from feeling hungry and will
also provide you energy. This happens
through the release of fat calories into the
bloodstream. Essentially, with the help
of hCG, the 500 calories will provide the
energy to help you get through the day
and will be supplemented by the calories
being released from your abnormal fat
stores. The 500 calories that you consume
in an addition to those fat cells being re-
lease. Hence, by far the majority of those
on the diet say they are not hungry.
Some patients claim the Integrative
Medical Centers hCG diet is the easiest
diet they were ever on. You will have to
judge that for yourself. But when you are
told that you will lose an average of one
pound per day--believe it. Thats what the
statistics showed.
Dr. Simeons, the originator of the hCG
diet and author of Pounds and Inches,
spent more than twenty years scientifical-
ly testing every aspect of obesity. He has a
remarkable story. The good doctor found
that by injecting a small amount of hCG
along with a specifically tailored diet he
reduced a persons weight by a pound a
day. Thats an average over many thou-
sands of patients. Our own experience
has seen patients lose even more - and we
will be happy to tell you about them.
The Benets of Our Weight Loss Pro-
gram
As a patient enrolled in our hCG pro-
gram weight loss program, you are en-
titled to many benefits
The Side Benets of taking hCG
Dr. Simeons discovered that along with
substantial weight loss and the ability to
keep it off after the hCG Diet Program
has been completed, there were many
benefits being experienced by patients
during an hCG Weight Loss Program.
Here are a few:
No loss of muscle mass
Normalized the thyroid gland
Rebuilds the adrenaline glands
Balances the hormones output
Replaces the good cushioning
fat pad throughout the body
Normalizes cholesterol levels
Normalizes appetitie demands
Improves ones singing voice
(believe it or not)
Gets rid of large pot belly on both
males and females
Reduces fat deposit on double chins

Begin the slow, steady
journey to your goals
Many people are impatient and do not want to do what it takes for
success. They want immediate results without putting in the neces-
sary work to make positive changes for the long term, and do what-
ever it takes to avoid obstacles in their relationships, careers, health,

The truth is beginners in every endeavor must understand it is a
slow, steady process to the top. Success comes with consistent,
steady progress toward ones goals.
The men and women who have achieved the greatest success in

quickly, and effortlessly, often fail to make lasting changes.

Over the last three decades, under the lead-
ership of President and CEO Jon M. Regis,
MD, Reliance Medical Group has been under-
taking a strategic acquisition and growth plan
designed to make the medical group South Jer-

provider.
As Dr. Regis and his team prepare to wel-
come in 2014, he believes they are just about
to do that.
At the close of 2013 Reliance had 30 practic-
es located across seven South Jersey counties,
including Atlantic, Cape May, Camden, Mercer,
Monmouth, and Ocean. The group is comprised

who care for 50,000 patients over the course of

Reliance Medical Group takes the position
that, Quality health care is a right, not a priv-
ilege.
We are extremely proud of what we have
accomplished in bringing the most advanced
patient-centered care to the residents of South
Jersey, said Dr. Regis. Reliance has an un-
relenting commitment to quality care, which
we achieve through employing expert physi-
cians and health care practitioners, remaining
abreast of mandated regulations and creating
innovative, affordable health care strategies.
Reliance is building its partnerships and al-
liances, while increasing community outreach
and health care awareness, said Vince Papac-
cio, COO.
By continuing to add quality practices and
physicians to our core group, and facilitating
continuing education and on-going
staff training, we believe Reliance
is recognized as one of the leading
primary care groups in the state,
Papaccio said.
Among its services, the Reliance
Medical Group provides care in the

ber of the statewide Accountable Care Organi-
zation (ACO), Reliance also began preparation
for a rapid expansion of patients as
a result of the Affordable Care Act.

sions in the Affordable Care Act will

patients who did not seek out care
or utilized emergency services in
a practice-based environment. We
will then have to ensure we promote
the highest degree of wellness and
manage chronic conditions in a
manner that keeps people out of the
hospital and away from the kinds of
emergent and high acuity services and proce-
dures that are placing a strain on our health care
system.
In the coming year, Reliance will look to:
Expand practice locations in Atlantic County
and beyond, participate in national project desig-
nating New Jersey a pilot state for implementing
independent nurse practitioner practices, and
initiate an Atlantic City-based physicians assis-
tant masters program with Richard Stockton Col-
lege of New Jersey and Philadelphia University.

Frigid weather can pose special
risks to older adults.
The National Institute on Aging
(NIA), part of the National Insti-
tutes of Health, has some advice
for helping older people avoid hy-
pothermia, which occurs when the
body gets too cold, during cold
weather.
Hypothermia is generally de-
QHG DV KDYLQJ D FRUH ERG\ WHP-
perature of 95 degrees Fahrenheit
or lower and can occur when the
outside environment gets too cold
or the bodys heat production de-
creases.
Older adults are especially vul-
nerable to hypothermia because
their bodies response to cold can
be diminished by underlying med-
ical conditions such as diabetes
and by use of some medicines, in-
cluding over-the-counter cold rem-
edies. Hypothermia can develop in
older adults after relatively short
exposure to cold weather or even
a small drop in temperature.
Someone may suffer from hy-
pothermia if he or she has been
exposed to cool temperatures and
shows one or more of the following
signs: slowed or slurred speech;
sleepiness or confusion; shivering
or stiffness in the arms and legs;
poor control over body move-
ments; slow reactions, or a weak
pulse.
Here are a few tips to help older
people avoid hypothermia:
Make sure your home is warm
enough. Set the thermostat to at
least 68 to 70 degrees. Even mild-
ly cool homes with temperatures
from 60 to 65 degrees can lead to
hypothermia in older people.
To stay warm at home, wear
long underwear under your
clothes, along with socks and
slippers. Use a blanket or afghan
to keep your legs and shoulders
warm and wear a hat or cap in-
doors.
When going outside in the cold,
it is important to wear a hat, scarf,
and gloves or mittens to prevent
loss of body heat through your
head and hands. A hat is partic-
ularly important because a large
portion of body heat can be lost
through the head. Wear several

layers of warm loose clothing to
help trap warm air between the

Check with your doctor to see if
any prescription or over-the-count-
er medications you are taking may
increase your risk for hypothermia.
The NIA has free information
about hypothermia, a fact sheet,
Hypothermia: A Cold Weather
Hazard and a brochure, Stay Safe
in Cold Weather. A fact sheet in
Spanish is also available. These
and other free publications on
healthy aging can be downloaded

Sitting for long periods increas-
es heart failure risk in men, even
for those who exercise regularly,
according to new research pub-
lished in the American Heart As-
sociation journal Circulation: Heart
Failure.
Preventing heart failure, re-
searchers found, requires a two-
part behavioral approach: high
levels of physical activity plus low
levels of sedentary time.

the link between heart failure risk
and sedentary time, said Debo-
rah Rohm Young, Ph.D., lead re-
searcher and a senior scientist at
Kaiser Permanente in Pasadena,
Calif.
Be more active and sit less. Thats
the message here, Young said.
Researchers followed a racially
diverse group of 84,170 men ages
45 to 69 without heart failure. Exer-
cise levels were calculated in METs,
or metabolic equivalent of task, a
measure of the bodys energy use.
Sedentary levels were measured in
hours.
After an average of nearly eight
years of follow-up, researchers
found:
Men with low levels of physical ac-
tivity were 52 percent more likely to
develop heart failure than men with
high physical activity levels, even
after adjusting for differences in
sedentary time.
Outside of work, men who spent
YH RU PRUH KRXUV D GD\ VLWWLQJ
were 34 percent more likely to de-
velop heart failure than men who
spent no more than two hours
a day sitting, regardless of how
much they exercised.
Heart failure risk more than dou-

hours a day and got little exercise
compared to men who were physi-
cally active and sat for two hours or
less a day.
Study limitations
Since no women were studied the
results may not apply to them; re-
sults were self-reported, which could
mean physical activity was over re-
ported; results were based only on
time outside of work and cant be
applied to overall sedentary activity;
and participants were members of
comprehensive health plans, so re-
sults may not apply to men lacking
health insurance.
The study supports the American
Heart Association recommendation
that people get at least 150 minutes
a week of moderate-intensity aerobic
activity to reduce their risk for heart
failure and other cardiovascular dis-
eases, Young said.

There are many factors that
can contribute to leading a
healthy lifestyle.
Upper Level Fitness has a
mission to encourage and assist
its members to live healthy and
happy. Its just over a year old
and continues to make upgrades
and improvements to its facility.
Owner and trainer Steve Cook
makes workouts unique and
challenging for the gyms 600-
plus members, and is constant-
ly looking for new and exciting
ways to improve the facility and
be of assistance to all of its
members.
With more than 20 group fit-
ness classes each week, con-
venient hours, a variety of ma-
chines and equipment, certified
trainers and sports nutrition
consultants, Upper Level Fitness
has the tools to help you get into
shape and make it a part of your
regular routine.
Group fitness classes are of-
fered in the early morning, mid
morning, and evenings, which
means lack of time for exercising
is no longer an excuse.
Classes incorporate cardio,
strength training, and overall
physical fitness, offering a great
way to start the journey of living
a healthier lifestyle.
Boot camp, spin, surf set fit-
ness, and recovery are just a few
of the classes offered at Upper
Level Fitness. Working out in a
group setting provides a support
system to help members encour-
age and motivate each other to
keep coming back.
Popular at Upper Level Fit-
ness are the weekly boot camps.
Offered each morning and eve-
ning, these classes are not your
typical exercise class as they are
designed to challenge members
mentally and physically, yet pro-
vide a sense of accomplishment
at the completion of the workout.
Boot camp classes include
exercises like pushing sleds on
the 30 yards of indoor turf, TRX
bands, cardio machines, dumb-
bells, kettle bells and more.
While the group classes cater
to members who enjoy working
out with other people, that form
of training may not be for every-
one.

Cape May Holistic Journey
begins its fourth year
Cape May Holistic Journey was born in 2010 from a desire to bring
together like-minded people who are interested in spiritual and meta-
physical topics in the greater Cape May County area.
Joan Malec and Louise Sinn co-founded the group, which explores
alternative methods to achieve personal growth, improve life and re-
LQWURGXFHFHQWXULHVROGSUDFWLFHVWKDWKDYHEHHQSURYHQWREHQHW
the mind, body and spirit.
Cape May Holistic Journey has organized retreats, meditations,
and various workshops. Its book clubs, scheduled twice a year and
lasting approximately 10 weeks each, explore such authors as Car-
oline Myss, Louise Hay, and Dain Heer.
It also sponsored a fundraiser and screening of the award-win-
QLQJOPE\&DUROH+DUW)RUWKH1H[W6HYHQ*HQHUDWLRQV
With the introduction of facilitators near and far, Malec and Sinn

For individuals that prefer
one-on-one instruction or need
the extra motivation, Upper Lev-
el Fitness has personal training,
small group training, and athlet-
ic training. Members are placed
in small groups with individuals
seeking similar fitness goals.
For example, popular at Upper
Level Fitness are athletic train-
ing groups, consisting of local
athletes and college athletes
who push each other to reach
their full potential in their sports.
While working out and ex-
ercising daily are important to
achieve your fitness goals, it is
also necessary to mix up your
workouts. Rest and recovery are
just as important as cardio and
strength training. So this past
year Upper Level Fitness made
it a priority to offer members a
way to rejuvenate tired muscles
and work on flexibility and bal-
ance.
New to Upper Level Fitness
this year was the addition of Stu-
dio Sky, a new home to yoga and
surf set fitness classes.
Although different than the
other classes offered, there are
numerous benefits of incorporat-
ing yoga into your weekly rou-
tine.
Practicing yoga teaches you
how to move your body by con-
necting breath with movement.
Yoga uses postures, or asanas,
to teach how the body moves.
Each posture stretches and
strengthens the body in a differ-
ent way.
Yoga works all the muscles in
your body, but has the ability to
get to the deep stabilizing mus-
cles. Stabilizing muscles are the
muscles that keep your skeleton
aligned and working the way it
was designed to work.
Stabilizing muscles help fa-
cilitate movement of the big out-
er muscles. Without the deep
smaller muscles helping out the
big muscles, over time we can
injure ourselves by using repet-
itive motion and getting in bad
movement habits.
Yoga helps correct that by
getting all the muscles work-
ing and strengthening and
stretching, which enables better
range of motion and more body
awareness. Take this into ev-
eryday life and daily movement
becomes easier and helps de-
crease injury.
This year looks to be an excit-
ing year for Upper Level Fitness.
With the addition of new class-
es, machines and equipment,
the gym continues to improve to
help its 600 plus members fulfill
their fitness goals.

journey to better health.

The patient care approach adopted by Reliance is designed to

HIFLHQWFRVWHIIHFWLYHZD\SRVVLEOH
Every Reliance patient is assigned a care team, consisting of
the patients physician of choice, a physician assistant or nurse
practitioner and care manager, whose role is to coordinate and ad-
minister all aspects of the patients care.
The model provides care coordination, preventive screenings,
management for chronic conditions, self-care support, community
resources and education, while helping patients achieve the highest
levels of wellness and quality of life.
Reliance has been structured to be successful in caring for peo-
ple within the Affordable Care Act, which has translated into rapid
growth for the organization.
This is a model we have worked hard to perfect, and one that
has helped Reliance grow into one of the leading health care pro-
viders in the region, said Papaccio.

healthier options become routine for customers.
The report outlines several ways health departments and restau-
rants have worked together to offer lower-sodium choices.
Health department dietitians can help restaurants analyze the sodi-
um content of their foods and recommend lower-sodium ingredients.
Restaurants can clearly post nutrition information, including sodi-
um content, at the order counter and on menus or offer lower-sodium
items at lower cost.
Health departments and restaurants can explain to food service
staff why lower sodium foods are healthier and how to prepare them.
The report also features examples of sodium reduction successes.
In Philadelphia, the health department worked with 206 restaurants
to create the Philadelphia Healthy Chinese Take-out Initiative.
After evaluating menus for sodium content, participating restau-
rants began choosing lower sodium ingredients and creating lower
sodium recipes. After nine months, analyses of two popular dishes
offered by 20 of the restaurants showed sodium was reduced by 20
percent.
The story in Philadelphia shows what can
be done, Dr. Frieden said. Its not about
giving up the food you love, but providing
lower-sodium options that taste great.
To learn more about sodium and how it
affects health, see www.cdc.gov/salt.
Reducing sodium is one way that Million
Hearts, a national public-private initiative to
prevent a million heart attacks and strokes
by 2017, is working with communities to
keep people healthier and less likely to
need health care. See www.millionhearts.
