The Role of Hormones in Weight Loss
Reports of unprecedented levels of obesity in the U.S. are old news. And though we’re “tipping the scales” far less than many states, still some 23% of Montanans now qualify as obese. This is despite the fact we all know that maintaining a healthy weight helps prevent heart disease, diabetes, sleep apnea and a host of other ailments. What most of us don’t realize is that diet and exercise aren’t the only factors that influence weight management. According to Torrie Mauerman, Doctor of Chiropractic Medicine and owner of Missoula Family Chiropractic, our hormones are equally significant. Join us to hear Dr. Torrie discuss the role hormones can play in weight loss, including why a person may lose weight initially only to gain it all back again. She’ll also explore different types of metabolism and how they affect each individual’s health.

Missoula Marathon Lecture Series
The Good Food Store has been a major sponsor of the Missoula Marathon since its inception and we’ve witnessed hundreds of first-timers get out there and experience the thrill of “going the distance.” This year we’re again excited to host a series of seminars designed to help the beginning marathoner get to the finish line feeling strong and help the experienced runner get there faster and more comfortably than ever. Join us on the second Monday of every month and hear from Missoula’s finest runners and most-respected fitness pros. These presentations, with plenty of time for your questions, are designed for marathon and half marathon participants, both runners and walkers. Admission is free but seating is limited, so please plan to arrive early.
