On this day of reflection, some of us will spend our time recalling the tragic losses endured within our families during previous wars, some of us will think of the family members presently engaged in war- torn areas of the world, and the few of us who haven’t suffered personally will think of those who have. It is appropriate that we take the time to honor those who gave of their time and in many cases, their very lives in preservation of the freedoms we are privileged to enjoy as Americans. On this one day, at least, I will not take these freedoms for grant- ed, as I know all of you will, too. In memoriam, there will be a parade hosted by the American Legion in the Village of Florida on Mon., May 30 starting at Cohen Circle beginning at 2 p.m. The route will be through Main Street ending at the Florida Cemetery, where tribute will be given to all fallen soldiers. If you are able, please bring your families and participate in this worthwhile event.

Mindful Living Inflammation & the Seven Dwarfs By Dr. Richard Greendyk apple fest '98 warwick, new york Once upon a time there were seven dwarfs. No, in reality, there are seven giants and they are dwarfing our society. But more about that later. Actually our story begins about thirty-five years ago, towards the end of the Vietnam War Era, at Walter Reed Army Hospital in Washington, D.C. Here, Mitchel Kaminsky, a young medical doctor in his sur- gical residency, watched in awe as young soldiers, seriously wounded in the war and expect- ed to die, miraculously recovered following implementation of a brand new medical tech- S .

Not so thirty-five years ago when malnutrition was little considered as R A part of the equation that would prevent survival in the treatment of the seriously ill patient. W What was astounding to the early pioneers of this technique, and probably more so to the patients on the receiving end as it enabled them to walk out of the hospital, was that if the food could be placed directly into the stomach via a tube, the patient’s progress was markedly faster. It was the dawning of a new era in healthcare where, in its infancy, the intricate rela- tionship of a properly functioning gut or digestive tract and the overall health of other organs, no matter how far removed from the gut, was not well understood and shrouded in mystery. We now know that it is an incredibly complex picture and series of events best depicted as a beautifully choreographed dance between our immune system, hormonal sys- tem, nervous system and gut. Just imagine “The Nutcracker Suite” performed in half the time with a heavy metal band as accompaniment. For those of us who have seen and heard it countless times, the outcome would be disheartening to say the least. Likewise, when the dance between the immune, hormonal, nervous system and gut becomes interrupted, the end result is less You’ve seen his work than desirable. And how does that happen?

Further research revealed that cytokines were designed to carry inflammatory messages from cell to cell, tissue to tissue, and organ to organ. In other words, the gut could communicate with the liver, which could then commu- nicate with the brain, which could then communicate with the joints or any other tissue of the body. Why the emphasis on the gut? Ponder for just a moment the surface area of our gut or digestive tract. If all the folds, nooks and crannies of our gut wall were smoothed out and flattened, the resulting area would encompass approximately one and a half tennis courts. This space must be constantly monitored and kept under surveillance by our immune system, especially in light of the fact that our gut is home to over six pounds of bacteria, many of which are not exactly friendly. And in addition, there are processed and unprocessed fecal material and toxic molecules; if allowed to cross the gut membrane, these would wreak havoc on our bodies. No wonder that sixty to seventy percent of our immune system is located around and intimately associated with our gut. And when something goes wrong, our immune system sends out the troops to confine, immobilize and destroy the offender by initiating the inflammatory cascade. This is good and beautiful, as inflammation is part of the healing response. Witness just how beneficial inflammation can be when we recall the first time we looked aghast at a young child freshly injured, covered with blood, horribly scratched, swollen beyond belief, and wondered how this child could ever heal without being permanently scarred. Remember your incredulity when several days later the same child presented, almost com- pletely recovered, with only a small remnant of the original wound? This is the immune system, the nervous system and inflammation wonderfully at work. But what happens when inflammation goes awry and, under the influence of long- standing detrimental signals from stress, toxicity, infection, oxidation by free-radicals, nervous system interference and insufficiency at one or more levels, sends the body into a state of chronic alert and becomes the norm instead of just a passing temporary response? Whether we want it or not, here it is, chronic systemic inflammation—the bad and ugly, the underpinning of all our diseases of aging. We know these diseases well for, as giants, they are never shy and no respecter of persons. Hear them come noisily, arrogantly, stomp- ing wildly as they go, dwarfing all whom they touch. Yes, we know them well: heart disease, stroke, diabetes, cancer, arthritis, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s! Yet in the midst of all the gloom there is a ray of profound hope, for chronic system inflammation, the foundation for all of them, can be handily reversed. But here’s the rub; it can only be accomplished using therapies that do not disrupt the many other dances so essential for the full expression of health and ultimately our lives. Indeed, these present day giants can become dwarfs again, with a comprehensive and personalized health renew- al program. So there you have it, a potential health evolution which comes full circle: past tense, dwarfs; present tense, giants; future tense, dwarfs again. But more on how to accom- plish this next time.

J&N Music, last year’s popular DJ, will return to provide the musical entertain- ment and dancing. There will also be special skits, prizes and surprises and lots of fun. Raffle tickets, currently on sale, offer 10 cash prizes and jewelry. The grand prize, cour- tesy of Provident Bank, is $1,000. The theme of this year’s June Party is “Dynamic Decade.”As always, guests have the option of wearing casu- al or more formal attire. But those who are more creative are encouraged to pick out their favorite decade, for exam- ple the 50s, 60s or 70s or whatever, and come in the dress of that period or some imaginative costume that’s in tune with this year’s theme. “We selected this theme,” said Gloria Okon, President of SACHA, “because we want our guests to have the option of dressing in any fashion they choose. We also want them to use their imagination. But most of all, we want every- body to have fun.” Okon, a former actress, singer and television personal- ity, has been chairing or co-chairing the June Party for about 10 years. Glo, as her friends call her, has been credit- ed with reviving the affair and making it SACHA’s major fundraiser. Last year, the June Party raised approximately $25,000 to purchase new equipment for St. Anthony Community Hospital. Despite the objections of her membership, however, Glo would like to retire. “I think it’s time to hand over the baton,” she said. “But before I do, I want this June Party to Members of SACHA, who recently met at the home of Carolyn Denny to stuff and address envelopes for the upcom- be the biggest and best one we’ve ever had.” So once again, ing annual “June Party” at Hickory Hill, are (clockwise): Eileen McCauley, Gladys Kaytes, Marguerite Meier Berry, Gloria Okon and Terry Gavan, SACHA’s Vice President, Linda Smith Ridella, Peggy Arizmendi, Carolyn Denny, Gloria Okon, Margaret Petlicka, Terry Gavan, Nell Rothschild will co-chair this year’s June Party. and Dorothy Anderson.
