Hot Flashes & Can't Sleep? This Can Help!

I recently saw this funny description of menopause: “Menopause is a Latin word that means men, you might wanna pause before you do anything that’s gonna tick this woman off.” Menopause is certainly the subject of many jokes, but when you’re going through it, it’s not so humorous.

No way around it - you've GOT to do this

Heart attack—know the symptoms and what to do

Heart attack—know the symptoms and what to do

People often ask me where I get my motivation to always eat healthy and work out consistently.  Easy. Motivation is derived from wanting to achieve something positive and/or avoid something painful.  In my case, I have looming over me a family history of heart disease. My dad had his first heart attack at the tender age of 35! Then his second heart attack killed him at age 58.  So there’s my motivation! And I’ve spent...

  Tomorrow is February 1st and February is National Heart Health Month!  Now, I think it’s safe to say that most of us don’t want anything bad going on with our ticker and vessels.  But unfortunately, many people have habits that are inviting heart disease to come knocking.  And the thing is, they likely don’t even know it!  Here are six of the most common habits that people have that increase the likelihood of heart...
