Scor : Prostate Cancer it’s more about living well with the disease than the risk of dying from it – Marketscreener.com

Maintaining a good quality of life with the disease requires early detection and appropriate treatment

Let's start before prostate cancer is even detected. Maintaining a well-balanced diet, keeping one's weight in check, reducing alcohol consumption and avoiding smoking, are all key to an overall healthy lifestyle. Regular exercise, while also a part of any wellness regime, has a specific benefit for prostate health. Prostate cancer reacts strongly to steroids in the body, and regular exercise helps to stabilize steroid levels by counterbalancing the 'everyday' stresses that flood the body with adrenaline.

However, despite maintaining a healthy lifestyle, genetics also play a role that should be considered. Men who have a first-degree relative (e.g. a father or brother) with prostate cancer are twice as likely to develop the disease, and there is also a generally heightened risk if a mother or sister has been diagnosed with breast cancer.

Understanding the warning signs is key. For example, any urinary disfunction exhibited after the age of 50 should be a signal to have a clinical visit with a urologist - these specialists are very adept at detection.

Normally, a clinical exam by way of a digital rectal examination should suffice to provide everything required for an initial diagnosis. Combining this exam with a simple blood test to detect PSA (prostate-specific antigen) can confirm the diagnosis and determine the extent of tumor growth. Given the low mortality risk of prostate cancer, doctors tend to monitor the aggressivity of the tumor with frequent PSA testing and ultrasounds, etc., before undertaking specific treatment. Depending on the progression of the disease and the age of the patient, several treatments are available to maintain quality of life.

So, what does it mean to prioritize 'quality of life' or 'living better' with prostate cancer? Unfortunately, several of the treatment options have consequences that, while effective at removing the cancer, have negative impacts on the day-to-day life of a patient, including erectile dysfunction and urinary difficulties. Consequently, depending on the age of the patient and the progression of the disease, the 'eradication' of the cancer through full or partial removal of the prostate (prostatectomy) may leave a relatively young, early-stage patient with negative side effects that could last a lifetime. It could be said that the most recent 'breakthrough' in the treatment of prostate cancer is managing the medical mindset to spare patients from systematic surgery, by taking into account their day-to-day holistic quality of life and considering the full array of treatment options.

In the early stages, frequent monitoring for tumor progression using PSA testing and ultrasound may be all that doctors advise. This offers the patient a longer 'normal/functional' window before other interventions are advised. Unlike other cancers, where eradication is the immediate priority, the objective of most prostate cancer treatments is to delay the progression of the disease and offer the patient the best life possible.

In the later stages, the introduction of hormone therapy may be advised. This involves suppressing the level of testosterone on which the cancer cells feed. Steroid levels are quite important in this disease - the higher the levels, the worse the potential prognosis. So, if testosterone levels are very high, reducing them through treatment may have a positive patient impact. This treatment is effective at stopping growth and 'choking off' the cancer cells and offers the patient an ongoing good quality of life. Depending upon the extent of such treatment, which at the extreme includes full blockage of testosterone production (temporary chemical castration), there will be an impact on libido and erectile function, but neither side effect is permanent and will only exist during the period of treatment. This offers a patient with advanced disease windows of 'normal life' between treatments. One lasting side effect of hormone suppression therapy is a reduction in BMD (bone mass density), known as osteoporosis, often seen in women during menopause, yet this too is treatable.

In cases where the cancer has not spread beyond the prostate, or has spread only slightly, radiation therapy is quite effective at targeting and killing cancer cells. While a long-term side effect of this therapy is erectile disfunction, the impact is not immediate, and the patient can continue to have years of normal sexual function.

The debate on removing the prostate (prostatectomy)versuspreserving the organ function stands as a major issue that is decided patient by patient, depending on the prognosis of the disease. Thanks to advances in robotic surgery, the procedure is now more precise, which reduces the risk of erectile and urologic disfunction. Other treatments such as radiotherapy may also be advised, when applicable to the patient's level of cancer and taking into account the objective of preserving a 'good life' with the disease.

Insurance providers likewise need to take into account all the treatment options, as well as the general prognosis of a normal life expectancy in prostate cancer patients. The insured will be more likely to file claims related to reduced earning capacity due to working less, increased treatment expenses, and so forth. This is not, in most cases, a serious condition impacting life insurance claims.

In conclusion, given that most diagnosed prostate cancer patients will have a normal life expectancy, both the patient and the treating physician need to focus on how well the patient can live his life. Men need to pay attention to potential signals and visit their urologist if symptoms present themselves, especially after the age of 50. If a prostate cancer diagnosis is confirmed, it is important that the 'stress' of the word 'cancer' be tempered against what is likely to be a long life with the disease rather than a life cut short because of it.

Pedometers provide added incentive over fancy fitness trackers – The Union Leader

You may Walk Like an Egyptian (The Bangles), Walk Right In (New Christy Minstrels) or be Walking on Sunshine (Katrina and the Waves). But however you do it, you want to know how many steps youre taking and have incentive to take more!

Its true, fitness trackers not only count your steps, they can tell you your sleep time and quality, sun exposure, calories burned and where you are in space and time (in case youve left the planet). Seems great except according to a new study, folks who use them log significantly fewer steps daily than folks using a simple step-counting pedometer.

Maybe its because you have to stop walking to read their screens, but whatever it is, new-fangled fitness trackers arent boosting your dose of daily exercise. According to the study in the International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, newer devices ... are less advantageous than simpler pedometers.

When the researchers looked at data on step-counting folks, they found that after four-plus months of daily use, people with body-worn trackers and smartphone apps took 834 fewer steps a day than those using a straightforward pedometer. And how about non-counters? A 2007 a study in JAMA found folks with a pedometer walked 2,491 more steps daily than folks who never counted steps.

So, if youre serious about getting in 10,000, life-changing steps a day, download a well-rated, free pedometer onto your phone or buy a simple step counter. Youll find (with apologies to Nancy Sinatra) that Your Feet Are Made for Walking.

November 18, 2020 | 3:00 p.m.

The annual "Global Day of Giving" is upon us this holiday season and what better way to give back to your community then joining in on#GivingTuesday by donating to the organizations that make Santa Barbara a place we are proud to call home. Noozhawk is teaming up with local nonprofits to encourage you to take part in the international day of giving on December 1st, 2020.

It is no secret that this year has been full of challenges. In the midstof the COVID-19 pandemic local nonprofits need your support now more than ever. OurGood for Santa Barbara Nonprofit Sectionprovides all the resources you need to donate this holiday season.

In this interview,Noozhawktalked with Gina Carbajal, Development Director ofSpecial Olympics Southern California - Santa Barbara, to learn more about how the nonprofit is dedicated to providing athletic competition for children and adults with intellectual disabilities.

Question:What is the name & mission of your nonprofit?

Answer:Themissionof Special Olympics Southern California is to provide year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community. Ourvisionis to promote acceptance, inclusion, and wellbeing for people with intellectual disabilities through sports.

Q:How long has your nonprofit been in service and whom was it started by?

A:U.S. Gold Decathlon winner Rafer Johnson started Special Olympics Southern California in 1969. Rafer received a call from Eunice Kennedy Shriver in 1968 as an invitation to the first Special Olympics Games in Chicago. He said that the event was such a positive environment and he wanted to help the movement grow. Johnson knew more needed to be done for people with intellectual disabilities so in 1969, he helped form the Southern California chapter of Special Olympics. Today, Special Olympics provides year round sports training and competition throughout Southern California to over 38, 200 athletes with intellectual disabilities.

Q:What was the inspiration behind your non-profit?

A:Eunice Kennedy Shriverbelieved that if people with intellectual disabilities were given the same opportunities and experiences as everyone else, they couldaccomplish far morethan anyone ever thought possible.She put that vision into action in 1962 by inviting young people with intellectual disabilities to a summer day campshe hosted in her backyard. She called it "Camp Shriver."The goal was to explore the children'sskillsin a variety of sports and physical activities.The idea behind that first Camp Shriver began to grow. InJuly 1968, the first International Special Olympics Games were held in Chicago, Illinois.

In her remarks at the Opening Ceremony, she said the inaugural Chicago Special Olympics prove "a very fundamental fact-- that children with intellectual disabilitiescan be exceptional athletes and that "through sports they can realize their potential for growth. She pledged that this new organization, Special Olympics, would offer people with intellectual disabilities everywhere the chance to play, the chance to compete and the chance to grow.

Q:How has Covid-19 impacted your non-profit?

A:With the COVID-19 pandemic impacting everyday life, Special Olympics faces new challenges. As we adapt to these unprecedented circumstances, we continue to serve our athletes. However, in order to ensure the safety of our athletes, staff, and community, we have made necessary modifications to our programming until we can come together again for in person sports training and competitions.

We have also been impacted like so many other non-profits and businesses financially, as we rely on fundraising events and grants to support the programs that we provide to our athletes. We were only able to hold two virtual fundraising events this year and most foundation and grant sources have shifted their funding to Covid-19 services within the community.

Q:Describe the changes that have been made to staffing and internal operations due to Covid-19. Are these changes expected to last beyond the short term?

A:We are following all State of California Covid-19 protocols to ensure that staff, volunteers and athletes are safe. We have three staff that oversee the daily operations for Santa Barbara Region. We are mainly working remotely from our homes, with occasional office days. We plan on going back to normal operations, once we are all able to get back to normal activities.

In regards to programs, we have made important changes to our programs to keep our athletes engaged in physical activity, wellness and social engagement. We have had to changes:

UNC partners with fitness nonprofit to support youth sports – SFGate

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) North Carolina is partnering with the National Fitness Foundation in its work to raise awareness and funding for youth sports and physical-education programs.

Foundation executive director Clay Walker said the partnership announced Wednesday is the first for an NCAA institution. The congressionally chartered nonprofit offers grants and training with the goal of improving youth health through fitness and sports.

Athletics director Bubba Cunningham said UNC is still developing plans, such as possibly having coaches running instructional clinics virtually amid the coronavirus pandemic or eventually in-person for adults coaching local youth teams.

Theyll show up if the assistant basketball coach shows up or the assistant baseball coach goes and works with the little league coaches, said Cunningham, adding that UNC will partner with a local fundraising group benefitting youth sports programs in areas with limited resources.

Walker said the UNC partnership is a pilot model with the goal of expanding to other NCAA schools for direct local impact. The foundations partnerships include the NFLs Los Angeles Chargers, AAU and private companies.

31 Inspiring Fitness Women to Follow on Instagram – Glamour

Today the fitness women leading the charge on Instagram couldnt care less about achieving a certain body ideal. Their metric for success isn't the number of abs you can achieve but learning more about what makes your body feel good and what makes you feel good in your body. Sure, exercises to get your endorphins pumping and eating in a way that fuels your body (which, spoiler alert, is not just salads 24/7) will remain a staple of the best female fitness accounts on Instagram. But as these fitness women prove, health and fitness are best when paired with a whole lot of self-love.

As the temperatures continue to cool, we'll be spending more time indoors and will need to be especially mindful that we're getting our heart rates up and stretches ineven if it's around the living room. To help you get in the mood, we've rounded up our favorite accounts focused on promoting holistic fitness. Sound mind, sound body.

The Nike Master Trainer and yoga instructor at the Broadway Dance Center in NYC is a pro at blending energizing movement into daily life. Whether it's a quad stretch along the waterfront or a a playful high knee down the street, Copeland shows that being active is a lifestyle, and a fun one at that.

Age is but a numberand an irrelevant onewhen it comes to fitness. MacDonald, who took up bodybuilding at 70, is a prime example of how changing your mindset can happen at any point of your life and that, while slowing down is a part of growing older, life doesn't come to a complete halt. "People think, Oh, Grandma, what does she know? But youd be amazed at what Grandma can do, the 74-year-old icon told Glamour. The drive runs in the familythe fitness influencer is also the mother of bodybuilder Michelle MacDonald.

CeCe Olisa and Chastity Garner Valentine founded Curvy Con to bring plus-size influencers and brands together in one place where they could trade inspiration and collaborate, while doing some shopping in between. Olisa's account features a healthy dose of outfit inspo, relaxing with a glass of wine, and clips of her making sure she gets moving with exercise that never feels forced.

The Nike trainer and Muy Thai instructor holds degrees in sports science and biomechanics. Her focus on empowering young women through sports, along with encouraging young girls to feel confident in exploring the martial arts, is the type of uplifting fitness content we need.

Pridget is a trainer and sports journalist who founded The First podcast, which features interviews with some of the top athletes in the world, like Nzingha Prescod. Whether she's hitting the track or throwing punches in the ring, she'll make you want to get up and move, stat.

Self-proclaimed nontraditional athlete Roz's platform inspires other women to not let the idea that only a certain body type can be active keep them from trying new things. Her honest humor and fearless attitude keep us coming back for more.

Podcaster Oenone Forbat (she's behind the wildly popular Adulting show on Apple) originally started her IG account to document her weight-loss journey. But after years spent grappling with body image and eating disorders, it has evolved, like her approach, into a platform for holistic fitness and mental health, with a heavy dash of humor.

Tally Rye's approach to fitness starts with the mind. She prioritizes intuition and health first, encouraging followers to be gentle with themselves along their fitness journey and listen to their bodyfeeling tired doesn't make you lazy! With all the pandemic fatigue, this is an approach we can all get behind.

A chef, activist, and fitness guru, Latoya Shauntay Snell is all about looking out for your body's needs while eating well. Her Swedish meatballs and blackened fish and shrimp tacos make for the perfect recovery meals.

Britney Vest performs quick HIIT routines to get your muscles fired up, all while boosting your energy and self-esteem. She founded WVVY, a size-inclusive fitness brand that has plenty of cute threadsthink leopard print, metallics, and colorful plaidto have you looking good along the way.

Jessamyn Stanley is one of the OGs when it comes to creating an online community to spread body positivity in a fitness world where being plus-size wasn't exactly welcome. She's also the founder of The Underbelly, a series of virtual yoga classes, and author of Everybody Yoga.

Mikelina Yonas Belaineh is a nonbinary powerhouseand not just because they have been powerlifting for years. The athlete also holds degrees from Texas A&M and Harvard Law and is the director of criminal justice law and policy at the Last Prisoner Project.

When lockdown first hit, Ariel Belgrave's Zoom workouts kept me moving when I could have easily spent hours just lying down in existential dread. A key part of her practice is coupling exercise with nutritious meals that are easy to make without skimping on the flavor.

Julia Parzyck is an eating disorder recovery coach. Knowing firsthand how challenging eating disorders can be to overcome, her account offers a refreshing take on healing and self-care. We can't help but share in the genuine enthusiasm she exudes while working out and spending time with her friends and loved ones. It's the inner glow for us.
