A concerning trend that’s on the rise
After being in the health field for the last few decades, I’ve pretty much seen and heard it all. But what troubles me is the fact that there are current trends in health that I am observing that go from mildly disturbing to downright shocking. As my karate fighting teacher used to tell me, I have a steel-trap memory…and I can vividly remember times in the not-so-distant past when we weren’t so darn...
What does your tongue say about your health?
Modern medicine uses a very pinpointed approach and typically narrows its diagnostic efforts on the “troublesome spot.” For example, if you go to the doctor reporting abdominal pain and diarrhea, you’ll likely get tests aimed at the gut, such as a lower GI series, ultrasound, colonoscopy or maybe a barium enema. On the other hand, traditional medicine (which includes acupuncture and Ayurveda) looks at the entire body as a series of parts and systems...
One thing you simply cannot ignore!
If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my 42-year career in the health field, it’s this: Our bodies are FAR smarter than we give them credit for, and your body will let you know what it needs and when it needs it.

This “Wonder Drug” isn’t all it’s cracked up to be
There’s an old saying that goes, “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.” Those wise words are especially pertinent to the latest “Holy Grail” of the weight loss world. Semaglutide! Semaglutide is the active ingredient in the diabetes drug Ozempic. It is also an ingredient in Victoza—another diabetes medication, and the weight loss drugs Wegovy and Saxenda. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you undoubtedly know or have seen...
Most people don’t get enough of this—do you?
If I were to tell you that a certain substance could reduce your risk of dying prematurely from any cause, would you be interested in knowing what it was? How about if I also told you that this substance helps older adults remain free of disease, disability and physical limitations well into their golden years? Does that sound good to you? Well, this seemingly magical lifesaving substance is none other than… Fiber! Here’s the...
We’d better wake up before it’s too late!
Brace yourself because I have some very disturbing statistics to share with you today. A JAMA study has shown that children and teens get a whopping 67 percent (two-thirds) of their daily calories from highly processed foods! So is it any wonder they’re overweight, depressed, can’t sit still or concentrate, and over half (54 percent) of them have at least one chronic illness? Adults are no better. As adults we “should” appreciate the importance of...
