You can’t live without it—how is yours doing?
Nothing in our bodies is there by accident, and each and every cell, tissue and organ serves a valid purpose as designed by our Creator. While it’s hard to say that a certain organ is more important than another, one organ that puts in a valiant effort 24/7 to keep you above the ground and healthy is your liver! The liver deserves special mention because of its incredibly wide range and number of functions...
My experiment was an abysmal failure
I recently conducted a little experiment to see if my suspicions were correct. And they were. I wrote letters to 65 local gastroenterologists in my surrounding area and along the east coast of Florida, introducing myself, including my curriculum vitae, and explaining that I would be happy to provide specialized meal suggestions and convenient guides that they could give to their patients to help address any dietary-related causes of their symptoms.

Discover what’s causing your IBS—and end it for good!
Let’s play an imagine game for a moment. Imagine that you get gassy and bloated pretty much every time you eat. Imagine almost never having a normal BM—you frequently have constipation, diarrhea or go back and forth between the two. Imagine having cramps and abdominal pain no matter what you eat, and your pain is only relieved by passing volumes of gas or having a BM. Imagine that all of the above have a...
The key to looking and feeling younger!
I once spoke at an anti-aging conference and had a booth set up in the exhibitors’ hall for people to come by, say hello and ask questions. One thing that jumped out at me pretty quickly was that a good number of people at the conference were taking the surgical route for their fountain of youth. While there’s nothing wrong with wanting to improve your appearance, when it gets to the point where someone’s...
