How cholesterol became wrongly demonized
I would dare say that there is no subject in this world that is as falsely portrayed and poorly understood as cholesterol. The extent of most people’s understanding of cholesterol is that it’s the demon that clogs arteries and leads to heart disease, and the magic number to strive for is 200. And if your blood tests show you’re in the elevated range, welcome to the world of statins. But how did we...
Don’t do this if you want to look younger
I once spoke at a “Fitness and Healthy Living” event in Los Angeles that I will never forget because most everything I saw around me was anything BUT healthy. The exhibit hall was filled with displays of very processed “workout” foods and snacks, diet shakes and pills, and most significantly…LOADS of people (mainly women) who have obviously had several Botox treatments. Now there’s nothing wrong with wanting to look youthful. But when someone gets to...
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?"

Then your health can begin to crumble and/or you start...
Beyond heartburn—all that mastic gum can do for you
Here’s an eye-opening statistic for you today: Seven out of 10 Americans take at least one prescription medication every day. So in other words, it’s the norm to be medicated, and you’re a weirdo if you’re not. And while that may be cause for celebration at Pfizer, Astra Zeneca, Merck and Johnson & Johnson, for the average person just trying to get relief from a health issue, it’s anything but celebratory. Because while drugs...
Is a healthy diet enough for good health?
I recently consulted with a client who reported that a close friend of hers had suffered a heart attack. She understandably was shook up for her friend, but what the friend’s doctor said to her patient shook ME up. Apparently, this woman had been taking a multi-vitamin and her doctor actually scolded her for it, saying she doesn’t need “that crap” and her diet will give her “all the nutrients she needs.” Sorry doc,...
The real key to beautiful hair and glowing skin
All you have to do is step into any grocery, drug or department store to see that the personal care industry is B-I-G business. Entire aisles and store sections are devoted to an array of lotions, creams, shampoos, conditioners, cleansers, toners, scrubs, etc. And the manufacturers of these products know darn well that people are willing to spend copious amounts of money and do practically anything to look good. I swear that a personal...
