This “fearless foursome” protects against COVID
Over the last year, it has become abundantly clear that there is a nasty new respiratory virus in our midst, joining the ranks of pneumonia, influenza, bronchitis, croup, Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and H1N1, among others. And while the COVID-19 virus (aka SARS-CoV-2) is “new” to us, viruses in general have been around since the dawn of time. Believe it or not, currently there are about 200 different viruses hanging around that could potentially...

This disease didn’t exist 100 years ago—now it’s exploding!
If you are an adult living in in the US or a similar “Westernized” country, chances are good you already have or soon will develop a sly, silent and rather common disease. This condition quietly progresses and waits like a spider…then when it rears its ugly head, you quickly find yourself flat on your back (or in surgery). I’m talking about diverticulosis. Here’s what you need to know about this “silent” condition that is...
Cases of this disease are exploding—but no one’s talking about it
I think it’s fair to say that we should be able to expect the CDC to be rather thorough in its reporting of disease information. After all, the “Centers For Disease Control and Prevention” implies that they actually have reliable statistics to help control and prevent disease. Well, I beg to differ. Because there is a huge omission in the CDC’s disease statistics as they pertain to deaths and mortality, based on my recent...
Can we talk about a taboo subject?
I have to confess that I get my inspirations for writing sometimes in the strangest, most warped ways. Today I have an appointment for my annual GYN checkup…and while I’m happy to report I’m feeling fine, the same cannot be said for many other women who may be paying a visit to their gynecologist today. Because one of the most common reasons to see a GYN is a vaginal yeast infection! Ah yes, most...
The 3rd certainty in life
Benjamin Franklin once said, "In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes." I'll add a third certainty onto that: There is NO "magic pill" that fixes everything for you. I say this because over the last 10 days or so I’ve been inundated with questions about what I call “magic pills”--weight loss gimmicks, wrinkle-erase face creams, belly fat burning pills, super muscle building formulas, you-name-it. You can tell...
The best gift you could get isn’t under your tree
I had a bit of a health scare recently. I had been teaching my karate class and putting my students (and myself) through an insane number of intense drills—lots of kicks, squats, sit-ups, push-ups and of course fighting. Well…later on I ended up with some pain in my low back and hips like I’ve never had before. It brought tears to my eyes. And I got scared. I went to the doctor and after...
