Mental Attitude: Kids Intuitive About Parental Stress. New research indicates that attempting to suppress emotions can lead a parent and their child to become cold and less engaged with one another. Researcher Dr.
Sara Waters writes, “That makes sense for a parent distracted by trying to keep their stress hidden, but the kids very quickly changed their behavior to match the parent… So if you’re stressed and just say, ‘Oh, I’m fine’, that
only makes you less available to your child. We found that the kids picked up on that and reciprocated, which becomes a self-fulfilling dynamic.”          Journal of Family Psychology, April 2020

Health Alert: MAFLD? Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a condition that occurs when fat accumulates in the liver from causes other than excessive alcohol consumption. In a recent article, researchers suggested changing the name for this condition to metabolic (dysfunction) associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in order to better highlight the underlying causes of the disease such as insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, abnormal blood lipid levels, being overweight, and having a large waist circumference.                Liver International, April 2020

Diet: Special Diet Key to Managing Asthma. The ketogenic diet triggers ketosis, which is a metabolic process that breaks down fats and proteins and transforms them into energy for the body. In a recent experiment, researchers
observed that when asthmatic mice consumed a ketogenic diet, they experienced a reduction in asthma symptoms. Researcher Dr. Christoph Wilhelm writes, “The prevalence of asthma has increased dramatically over the last few decades. Perhaps this is also related to an increasingly common high-sugar and high-fat diet.” The research team now plans to investigate whether a ketogenic diet can benefit humans with asthma.                  Immunity, April 2020

Exercise: Exercise for Osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by low bone mineral density, which can increase the risk for fracture in the event of a fall. The current research suggests that individuals with osteoporosis or those who are at risk for the condition should engage in resistance training to improve bone mineral density and posture/balance training to reduce the risk for falls.                                                                  Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, April 2020

Chiropractic: Smartphone Use and Chronic Neck Pain. Among a group of 2,438 young adults with chronic neck pain, researchers observed an association between excessive smartphone use and increased evidence of cervical disk degeneration.
