A very preventable cause of chronic disease
I remember having a conversation with a woman who told me how fortunate she felt to be in good health in her early 60's.

No way around it - you've GOT to do this
I was once challenged to say what I do for a living without saying what I do for a living. I responded, “I tell people what they don’t want to hear, but need to hear.” Sound about right?

4 Ways to slow aging and prevent disease
What if I told you that aging, heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Type II diabetes, cataracts and arthritis are all caused or worsened by the same health-wrecking "monster?" This creature is inside all of us, and it isn't always a bad guy...but when it's allowed to get out of control for a long enough period of time it will unleash its wrath.

Will this well-proven health measure be next on the chopping block?
In case you haven’t noticed, marketing is all about creating a need (and subsequent demand) for a certain product. This can be done in a number of ways. First and foremost, everyone knows that sex sells, so typically the product being advertised is presented with a scantily clad model or two. “New and different” formulas spark the consumer’s interest and desire to try the “new” version, even if it’s not significantly different from the...
