From The Desk of Dr. David Minkoff Complementary Medicine and Heavy Metals Exposure Expert

Current research studies are finding that many of today's diseases and health problems are linked to an over-burden of toxins in the body. We live in a polluted environment where our food, air and water are contaminated with hundreds of heavy metals that easily pass into our digestive tract to invade us.

Leading the charge in the toxic army are the heavy metals, which comprise; lead, mercury, aluminum, antimony, arsenic, barium, beryllium, bismuth, bromine, cadmium, nickel, thallium, tin and uranium.

My first race of the season, South Beach Triathlon, was this past weekend. While I was racing in my first pro race, many others were getting their season started at Oceanside 70.3, the inaugural New Orleans 70.3, IM Australia and IM South Africa. It was a big weekend for racing and just the start of another great year in triathlon. Natascha Badmann, at the age of 41, won in New Orleans with a blistering bike split. After losing his goggles, having an asthma attack on the swim and nearly tossing in the towel, Matty Reed won at Oceanside by well over a minute and half. Chrissie Wellington went under 9 hours down under. And in South Beach, hundreds of people lined up to race their first triathlon next to many physically challenged athletes inspiring us all.

As we age, "sleeping like a baby" becomes a metaphor less commonly used. Stressors in life and hormonal changes affect our sleep patterns. There may be times when we awake after "sleeping all night", but did we? Through this two part series we'll take a closer look at the topic of sleep, how much is optimal, and some things to consider to ensure we're "ready for sleep."

During childhood, through adolescence and into young adulthood, our bodies are wonderful chemical factories. There are many times when these chemicals, many of which are hormones, seem to make our life and our parents' lives miserable. However, during sleep, the hormones and chemicals are busy repairing our bodies, creating opportunities for growth, and cleansing.
