A very inspiring story that will touch your heart
I think it’s ingrained in us as human beings to embrace an inspiring story and be moved by the same. That’s why I share the story of my own ill health—suffering from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) for 15 years and feeling hopeless—until I changed my diet and ended my IBS practically overnight. And I’m thankful to say that I’ve been able to help many others do the same with my Great Taste No Pain...

A very exciting announcement!
If you’ve been a reader of mine for even a short while, you’ve likely noticed that my message is one of supporting health primarily through a diet of real foods and proper supplementation.

This can either save your life or kill you
When faced with the unsettling news that they have a disease, many people are taken aback and swear that it just “came out of nowhere.” Trust me, nothing could be further from the truth. Disease is not a sneaky monster that lurks in the shadows and waits for its opportunity to bite poor unsuspecting you in the derriere.

Stop using artificial sweeteners! Here’s why.
If you’ve been a reader of mine for a while, you probably know where I stand on the topic of artificial sweeteners. In case you’re not sure, let me clarify: They are POISON. And the fact that they have been so widely used for decades proves once again that advertising works. In this case, these toxic powders have been positioned as a dieter’s dream, even though they are associated with weight GAIN—not loss! They’ve...
