SERVING THE COMOX VALLEY, CAMPBELL RIVER & THE NORTH ISLAND
Rub a dub dub…one in the tub. Cathy Hufnagel of the Comox Valley was driving along the Old Island Highway in Fanny Bay when she came across these geese. “I just couldn’t believe that one was in the tub,” Hufnagel says. “I was hoping that the other would join him, but not enough room I suppose.” To submit your photos for MidWeek, send them to [email protected]

Question: How many push-ups can Chuck Norris do?
Answer: All of them.
The world’s most revered martial artist and by all accounts, the toughest man alive, has finally revealed the secret behind his unrivalled awesomeness. The news came out on April 22, when Mr. Norris announced that he and his wife
Gena have been using Max International’s nutritional products for years.
Max’s patented health and sports nutrients naturally boost production of glutathione, the human body’s major cell protector and master antioxidant. They’ve been shown to promote optimal health, sharpen mental focus and improve athletic performance
and recovery. Max International’s
products were developed largely based on the ground breaking research of Dr. Herbert Nagasawa, who Mr. Norris openly admires.
“The nutrients he and Max have developed have been truly transfor
mational in the lives of so many,” he said.
“For athletes, they’ve literally been the difference between victory and defeat. And yet, most people have never heard of Max or its products. I
want to change that!”“Our family has
been taking Max’s
nutritional products for years,” added his wife Gena. “We know firsthand the wonderful benefits they provide and the critical role they play in anyone’s health, performance and quality of life.”
As a longtime user of Max products myself, I’ve also experienced those transformational effects. I feel 10 years younger than my age, and people comment
– yes, they actually comment – on my muscle tone and skin tautness. Of course, there are few better spokespeople for a performance-boosting product than Chuck Norris. After all, he’s the guy who can literally kill time, and who can win a game of Connect Four in just three moves. And while some illusionists can walk on water, I have it on good
authority that Chuck Norris can swim through land. If Chuck Norris is using Max, shouldn’t you be too?

For the past 90 years the British Columbia Naturopathic Association (BCNA) has supported the naturopathic physicians of B.C. to provide safe and effective medicine for the citizens of B.C. At its inception, there were only a handful of physicians practicing in B.C.
Over the years our numbers grew, and our members and the BCNA have worked tirelessly to support and promote the practice of naturopathic medicine in B.C. We have seen many changes during
these past 90 years. The creation of the
Naturopath’s Act in 1923 guaranteed NDs (Naturopathic doctors) the legal ability to practice this unique and separate system of medicine.
More recently, the profession has taken its place amongst other health professions in the province with regulation under the Health Professions Act and most recently, with the granting of prescribing authority to qualified NDs. Over the past 90 years the profession has grown and matured to more than 400 physicians
who offer primary care in virtually every community in B.C. Naturopathic medicine is the medicine of the new millennium and the BCNA is proud of the way each ND has contributed in their own unique way to the profession and for each doctor’s role in advancing primary care in B.C.
The word doctor comes from the Latin “docere” which means to teach and each ND will assist their patient
to not only understand possible underlying causes of their disease but also to coach them
in keeping as healthy as possible. ND’s educate by giving lectures, writing articles and using educational material to assist their patients in making
decisions for their health. The ND works in partnership with the patient, rather than “telling” them what to do. Due to the length of the appointments and the ability to
look at all aspects of a patients health, the patient has a chance to “tell their story” in full and be heard.
Over the last 27 years of my practice I have learned:
n There is no right or wrong way to treat a patient, there is just the “patients’ way”. By giving the patient the choice of which direction they want to go with their health, we are acting as a coach for change. When patients come to me they are looking for change and they are not sure what that might look like. With the many recipes
that I provide, food choices and where to find them and meal plans along with a detailed treatment plan, patients are given concrete tools to help them make the change. Making even one change per month and keeping that change is certainly the underlying goal that I present to patients.
n My vision of a person’s health may not match theirs so I try to utilize their health goals with good patient care and education. Many patients don’t want a complete over haul of their health,
they may just want a resolution of their chief complaint. Others look forward and see naturopathic medicine as a way of healthy aging, and a way to keep them out of nursing homes and assisted living as long as possible. My focus is to provide the best care possible to each patient.
n While some patients choose not to pay for additional testing, others see the value in getting more clinical information. The best care is individualized; with additional tests, doctor

Ask the Dentist
Answer: Dentists have extensive knowledge of the head and neck anatomy, as it is the area they work on daily. Dentists are skilled at injections as they routinely give injections in sensitive areas. Botox has therapeutic uses and is not just for cosmetics. If you clench or grind excessively, Botox can reduce these habits, saving your teeth and relaxing your tense facial muscles. People who suffer from headaches are getting relief with Botox. Also, people who suffer from excessive sweating can use Botox to inhibit the sweat glands.In 1992 it was two Canadian ophthalmologists who fi rst used Botox to treat wrinkles around the eyes and forehead. This treatment has been approved by the FDA and it is reported to last up 4-6 months.Botox treatment offers advantages for men and women. Botox is a purifi ed protein which is safely metabolized by the body. The appointments are short and you are able to carry on with your day as it allows for natural movement of the face. Results last up to 6 months or even longer with repeated use.The CDSBC has approved the use of Botox in dental offi ces. For more information or to fi nd out if Botox will work for you please contact Dr. Jana Lamb for a Complimentary Cosmetic Consult at 250-287-7343.

and patient can work together with better success.
n Some patients don’t really want to understand the underlying cause of their illness, they just want to get better and they come to naturopathic physicians as a last resort. These same patients may come back years later when they feel more ready to take more responsibility for their health.
n Many patients come to me
because they have a chronic disease like Parkinson’s, chronic fatigue or cancer and they want to live with this diagnosis and still thrive. With cancer patients I have developed an educational package that they can go away with and study to learn ways to best deal with their illness.
n In fact what naturopathic medicine offers the people of British Columbia is just old fashioned Good Medicine. Our medicine is complementary to many drugs and
surgical treatments and affords patients speedier and healthier outcomes. Many oncologists remark that they can spot the patients following naturopathic protocols as being the healthier ones in their waiting rooms.
n Surgeons often comment on the speedier recovery from surgery that they see in naturopathic patients and General Practitioners are happy to see their patients get off medications such as those for reflux and blood pressure they no longer need
when under the care of naturopathic physicians.
n It is time for us all to take responsibility for our personal health care as CEO’s of Canadian hospitals are taking note from “ Rate my hospital” on CBC’s website. Together with all of the other health care professionals available to British Columbians, Naturopathic Physicians can provide the missing link to optimize the health of all.
To find an ND near you check out my website under
Healthful links or www.bcna.ca
You are invited to drop into my waiting room any time to browse the educational material and ask for tastes of Greens First, Fish oil and Verry Berry. I am here to serve you. Thank you for supporting naturopathic medicine in Campbell River for the past 17 years.

Bird lovers are asked to help protect bird populations and prevent the spread of infectious diseases through the regular cleaning of birdfeeders and birdbaths.
During spring, many small migratory songbirds are returning home from winter retreats to the south. Species such as pine siskins, redpolls
and grosbeaks are commonly found in large flocks at this time of year. This can result in high density congregations of birds around birdfeeders and water sources such as birdbaths. While this is a wonderful opportunity for birders, the increased density of the birds as well as the stress of weather and nutrition
challenges can lead to the spread of serious and sometimes fatal diseases among the birds, such as avian conjunctivitis, avian pox virus and salmonella bacterium. Some of these diseases not only threaten local bird populations, but can spread to pets and people handling affected birds and contaminated
materials. Provincial
biologists are asking for the public’s help to maintain bird health and help prevent the spread of these diseases through a number of simple measures. The most important thing people can do is to clean their birdfeeders and birdbaths regularly. This should include replacing birdbath
water every few days and scrubbing and cleaning feeders and birdbaths as well as the area around them at least every couple of weeks.
Other things bird lovers can do to help include: Spreading out multiple feeders to discourage crowding and Keep the area under the feeders clean.
Clean birdfeeders help keep bird populations healthy

When it comes to newborn wild animals, mother always knows best, and so with fawning and calving season underway, provincial biologists are reminding people that newborn deer, elk or moose should not be touched or moved when encountered.
People who find these newborns alone often mistakenly believe they have been abandoned, but usually they have only been left there temporarily by their mother, who will return. Intervening in these situations by “rescuing”
the fawn or calf is rarely necessary and will usually do more harm than good.
It is normal for mother deer, elk and other ungulates to leave their young alone for long periods, returning a few times a day to nurse and relying on the newborn’s lack of scent to protect them from predators. Returning mothers that find humans or pets nearby may leave or can become aggressive to defend their offspring from the perceived threat. The mother will return if the young
is left alone. Although these
newborns may appear abandoned, it is rarely the case, and if they are removed they will
be orphaned. While professional wildlife rehabilitation facilities in some areas of B.C. can successfully rear these newborns, there
is no maternal care and their chances of survival are far less than if they had been raised by their true mother.
This is true not just for deer; many mammals leave their young alone for long periods of time, only to return to feed them at regular intervals. So, if you encounter a young deer or calf in the wild at this time of the year, appreciate the experience, but don’t approach or intervene.
Quick Facts: If you find a fawn or
calf that you think may be orphaned, here’s what you should do:
n If it is lying quietly, leave it alone and leave the area. Your presence will discourage the mother
from returning. n Keep all children
and especially dogs away from the area.
n If you think the fawn or calf is not being cared for by its mother, return the next day to check. If it is in the exact same spot, it may be injured or orphaned. Contact a wildlife rehabilitator as soon as possible, but do not touch or move the animal.
n Do not touch or feed the animal.

Leave newborn wildlife in the wild
They’re cute but leave them alone when they’re newborns and you find them lying in the grass. Most of the time they’ve been left to hide while mom goes foraging.

The popularity of yogurt is on the rise. People are drawn to the health bene� ts of yogurt, but there are lesser-known bene� ts to yogurt as well.
Yogurt’s creamy texture is a byproduct of the lactic acid present when milk ferments. Between 20 and 30 percent of milk’s lactose is converted to lactic acid during the fermentation process.
One of the advantages to eating yogurt concerns digestion. The naturally occurring bacteria present in yogurt helps promote a healthy environment
in the stomach and digestive system, enabling the body to more ably break down food. The proteins in yogurt are complete and fully absorbed by the body. These proteins also contain essential amino acids that the body cannot produce on its own. Those who enjoy yogurt on a daily basis can invest in the larger quarts of yogurt sold at many stores, which will produce less waste than the single-serve containers. Furthermore, individuals should recycle their yogurt containers.
Yogurt a healthy choice

#40 (NOI) North Island
WEDNESDAY, MAY 8, 2013 | NORTH ISLAND MIDWEEK | 11
On a bright, clear, sunny summer morning in July 2010 a group of 13 intrepid adventurers scrambled onto the 6,000 foot summit of Crown Mountain, high in the wilderness of Strathcona Park.
They had come from various walks of life, some experienced mountaineers and others on their � rst-ever climb.
What united them all was a desire to celebrate the creation of Strathcona, the � rst of British Columbia’s Provincial Parks.
The Strathcona Centennial Expedition travelled for three weeks in July and August 2010 across Vancouver Island from Campbell River to Port Alberni, over 300 kilometres through the heart of Strathcona Park.
They journeyed by
canoe and on foot via the rugged valleys and mountains, retracing the steps of the father of BC Parks, Price Ellison.
Ellison was a rancher from the Okanagan, MLA and Minister in the Government of Sir Richard McBride.
In the summer of 1910 Ellison and a party of 23 had completed this very same journey to assess the suitability of the Strathcona Reserve for park status.
Ellison was so impressed by what he saw and experienced that he wrote a glowing account to McBride’s cabinet.
In March 1911 legislation was passed enacting the Strathcona Act, creating B.C.’s � rst park.
In Ellison’s party was his nephew Harry McClure-Johnson who was the expedition’s of� cial scribe. Johnson
detailed the whole adventure from Victoria via steamship to Campbell River and their epic traverse across the lakes and mountains to Port Alberni.
For a hundred years this beautifully written account of an important chapter in B.C.’s history has been cared for in museum archives along with a collection of photographs by Frank Ward taken along the expedition route.
Now, alongside a twin journal from the 2010 Strathcona Centennial Expedition, Johnson’s words and Ward’s photographs have been published for the � rst time.
Quadra Island author and expedition leader Philip Stone has brought these two volumes to life.
Weaving the colourful descriptions
of the characters and the unforgiving but spectacular landscape, with the expedition photographs, Stone has crafted two books that tell two stories spanning a hundred years.
Strathcona 1910 Discovery Expedition and Strathcona 2010 Centennial Expedition are both engaging reads, dramatically illustrated by photos from each of the expeditions. They are perfect for those that cherish our parks and history.
The books along with a documentary � lm DVD are available now from Wild Isle Publications.

KNOW the facts before you vote!The future of British Columbia rests with the outcome of this election as North Island voters are asked to choose between two drastically different plans. One plan is rooted in spending beyond our means and is vague on details, while the other plan is founded on the principle of spending only what we can afford, and charts a vision for B.C.’s continued prosperity.
Nick Facey• North Island raised.
• Formal education in business, doctoral candidate, University
business instructor.
» Supports responsible resource development and resource jobs.
» Supports staying on path with John Hart Dam rebuild.
» Supports building hospital, and extended care facility as laid
out by local project teams.
Claire Trevena• Background as union activist in Britain, BBC Journalist.
• Achievements during 8 Year as North Island MLA:
» Opposes development of resource jobs.
» Opposes basis for building new hospital, and will likely do
so again for planned Extended Health Facility - placing it at
risk under NDP.

CROSSWORD
Romance is alive and well – at least in some households. If yours isn’t one of them, don’t worry; there are plenty of ways to rekindle romance without spending a fortune.
Vancouver Island offers a beautiful backdrop for romance and myriad opportunities for a cheap date night.
Pack a picnic, take a drive and be ready to pull over and watch the sunset or just enjoy a quiet, uninterrupted moment. Alternatively, order a pizza or cook that meal you read about in a food magazine and have date night at home.
Curl up with a good movie and simply enjoy each other’s company.
In my practice, I often work with couples who want to rekindle romance, increase intimacy and release resentment.
One idea I’ve seen work well is to fill a jar with all the things you and your partner want to do.
Each week, pull out one thing and do it. Acting upon these new ideas will help you reconnect and get back that loving feeling, and the surprise factor
will keep it exciting!Rekindling romance
can be as simple as a romantic gesture. Slip a brief love letter into your partner’s pocket, do more than your share of the chores or just do something thoughtful for your partner
that will mean a lot to them. Your spontaneity will be appreciated in ways you can’t even begin to imagine.
Romantic gestures and date nights are a great way of showing your partner that they’re wanted, desired and appreciated. That
will go a long way toward sparking that flame and re-igniting the passion.
I invite you now to envision your future together – not just an extension of your present relationship, but what you’d like it to look like over the next 10, 20 and 30 years.
Now start working together to make that vision a reality.
