The health scare no one talks about

The health scare no one talks about

  While it seems to be the current focus of our national health agencies to scare the bejeezus out of people talking about the flu, COVID, monkeypox and whatever other viruses they can point a finger at, there is a glaring failure in how these agencies “serve and inform” us. I’m talking about chronic disease. Currently, half of all adult Americans, and shockingly 54 percent of our children, have at least one chronic disease (according...

Beware! This is even more dangerous than sugar!

Beware! This is even more dangerous than sugar!

  Important announcement at the end, please read through. I would suspect that you probably remember me talking countless times in the past about the dangers of sugar, especially “sugar” in the toxic form of high fructose corn syrup. Sugar is a driving force behind a plethora of diseases and conditions including diabetes, insulin resistance, cancer, heart disease, obesity, dementia, immune dysfunction and chronic inflammation, to name a few. And it’s no coincidence that our...

Are your meds making you sicker?

Are your meds making you sicker?

  Although there are times when medications are necessary and appropriate, as a society we’ve gone way overboard and are increasingly relying on drugs to “create health” for us. I’ve heard people say things like they are in “good health” because their blood pressure is controlled with beta blockers, their cholesterol is under 200 with statins, proton pump inhibitors keep their acid reflux quiet, and sedatives help them sleep. THAT’S good health? No—that’s a chemically...

Do you get enough of these longevity nutrients?

Do you get enough of these longevity nutrients?

  Today is my birthday and while the thought of turning 62 can be a bit unsettling, I am thankful for all of my incredible blessings—my family, my cats, my God, the martial arts, and of course, great health! I love being able to say that I’m in my 60s, take no medications, easily maintain my weight, have boatloads of energy and can still run and do full-contact sparring…and I have no intention of stopping...

How to make working from home, work for YOU

How to make working from home, work for YOU

  Since the emergence of COVID and the resulting lockdowns and closures, more people than ever before have begun working from home. In fact, by the end of 2020, 71 percent of Americans who could do their jobs remotely were working from their homes.  But COVID was not the sole reason behind this shift. Over the last few decades as technology has advanced and fewer job responsibilities have required an employee’s physical presence five days...

Are these really just “a bunch of crap”?

Are these really just “a bunch of crap”?

 *Important general office-hours announcement at the end - Please read through* I once had a client who told me that when she mentioned to her doctor that she was taking a multi-vitamin, he basically scolded her and said she “doesn’t need that crap.” Interesting perspective.  Not only are vitamins NOT a bunch of crap, but our need for non-food sources of nutrients has continued to expand. At one time (several decades ago) people who had...
