Diabetes is not just an individual’s condition to manage; it has proven to be a disease of entire families. The philosophies of our programs can be utilized by individuals who don’t necessarily have the condition. Our clinic encourages everyone to be “metabolically fit”. Metabolic fitness means maintaining leveled blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar across the board for extended periods of time.
Dr. Wayne Woo and his wife, Pat Woo, help patients understand how healthy decisions go hand in hand with medical expertise when it comes to treating diseases. The clinic’s unique approach to treatment encourages patients to make changes in their meal plans, their attitude, and their expectations. Combined with Dr. Woo’s solid medical expertise, people with diabetes in Mississippi are offered “hope, healing, and health.”

Blue zones are regions in the world where people have lived longer than average. There are currently five blue zones in the world: Okinawa, Japan; Sardinia, Italy; Costa Rica; Icaria, Greece; and Loma Linda, United States. Life expectancy in the United States is 78.2 years. One of the common lifestyle habits is to "move."
I've been visiting my 94-year-old mother in San Francisco. She walks close to 20+ blocks to her neighborhood stores everyday.
San Francisco is very hilly and she has to walk up a steep incline before heading home. She would often say to me "I'm getting so old; I'm so short of breath walking up these inclines." I would reply, "Mom, you are 94. Many people can't even walk up this incline, let alone walk up this incline with a backpack full of groceries!"
I will be traveling to Okinawa this year to research the blue zone. Lifestyle medicine should be the foundation of how we practice medicine. Let my mom's story inspire you!

Exercise not only helps your physical wellbeing...
"Research shows that people who exercise regularly have better mental health and emotional wellbeing, and lower rates of mental illness. Taking up exercise seems to reduce the risk of developing mental illness. It also seems to help in treating some mental health conditions, like depression and anxiety." -BetterHealth
