The circulatory system is import- ant, and a local naturopath will teach attendees why. Dr. Tracy (rÀing¶s talk, ³Head- to-Toes Circulatory Health,” will start at 7 p.m. The free event will take place at the Fort George Lovell Show- room, located at 426 14th St.; all ages are welcome. ³This is a great time of year for a circulatory review since we¶re moving out of the cold and dark; we can plan ways to boost things we¶re doing for our circulatory sys- tem,” Dr. (rÀing said. ³3eople might not be moving as much, and with the passing of that sedentary, heavy-food time of year, we want to start a clear- ing process. This should be a refreshing talk to get people excited about movement, ac- tivity and health.” All cells in the body need oxygen and nutrients as well as waste removal. This is an important role of the circula- tory system. The heart, blood vessels, lymphatic system and blood itself work together to service the cells of the body. Using the network of arteries, veins and capillaries, blood carries carbon dioxide to the lungs (for exhalation) and picks up oxygen. From the small in- testine, the blood gathers food nutrients and delivers them to cells throughout the body. (rÀing will review this sys- tem, problems that can affect its function, and therapeutic ideas for health and healing. There are many ways to naturally boost your circulatory system, and exercise is one example. ³:hen we move our muscles, it assists the pump- ing of blood around the body.

Generally we rely on the heart to do the work, but when we exercise it helps the whole cir- culatory system function more smoothly,” (rÀing said.
