January 11, 2010 by drfitnessandthefatguy

Frozen shoulder happens when you just can’t move your shoulder – it seems frozen in place. While this kind of shoulder pain is relatively rare, it seems that those who are affected by it are a high number of diabetics. The shoulder movement is being restricted by an excess amount of glucose in the joint. If this happens to you – get it checked out – treatments can include anti-inflammatories and physical therapy.

December 22, 2009 by drfitnessandthefatguy

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain how to raise a healthy teen. With the number of overweight and obese teenagers skyrocketing it is critical that parents control what they can control in regards to their teen. While it is becoming increasingly difficult to monitor your teens eating while they are out of your home – you can control what food is inside your house. Get rid of the unhealthy snacks and bring in the fruits and vegetables. Try and make time to eat together as a family and when you do eat together prepare healthy meals. Involve your teen in the meal preparation as well. This way you can show him/her what a portion size looks like and how to make healthful food substitutions.
