Are you ignoring these life-saving organs?

Are you ignoring these life-saving organs?

  It is officially March 3rd and that means that spring is only 17 days away. I don’t buy it.  I see a WHOLE lot of snow out my office window right now, with more in the forecast for the next week or so. But March is also National Kidney Month, and that’s definitely something I can get behind! When it comes to organs, your kidneys are not necessarily the most “popular” little guys, but their...

Surprisingly effective arthritis relief

Surprisingly effective arthritis relief

  Back when I was a kid, arthritis was something that I thought only happened to older people like my grandmother. But then I met a young girl (who was a cousin to one of my friends) who had chronic pain, swollen joints and walked with crutches.  My friend whispered to me that she had arthritis, and that rocked my world.  How on earth could a 15-year-old have arthritis? Well, now I know that’s quite...

Want to know how to really prevent cancer?

Want to know how to really prevent cancer?

  February is National Cancer Prevention Month and ribbons in all colors of the rainbow are popping up everywhere to raise awareness about our #2 killer. Organizations like the American Cancer Society, the National Cancer Institute and the Mayo Clinic are regurgitating the same old prevention strategies—don’t use tobacco, eat a healthy diet, exercise and go for annual screenings (like mammograms)—even though those screenings expose you to cancer-causing radiation! Oops. Plus now vaccines for HPV...

Your best protection against heart disease (Hint: it’s not statins)

Your best protection against heart disease (Hint: it’s not statins)

  February will soon be upon us, and in case you forgot, February is Heart Health Month! Unfortunately, much of the hoopla that will be bombarding us for 28 days has very little to do with actual heart health! As usual, we’ll all be reminded to wear red, to control our cholesterol (with statins, of course) and avoid saturated fats while using “heart healthy” vegetable oils. What a crock of BS.  That translates as follows:...

Get relief from your gut aches

Get relief from your gut aches

  If you’re among the 7 out of 10 people in the US who at least occasionally (or every day!) suffers from digestive problems, chances are excellent you’ve had Tums, Pepto Bismol or Rolaids as close companions. Maybe you’ve even graduated to Nexium, Zantac or Prilosec—if you’ve followed the digestive advice of Larry the Cable Guy. But these medications only cover up the problem—they do NOTHING to help your digestive system work the way it’s...

Win the war on inflammation

Win the war on inflammation

  I’m going to start your New Year out with some not-so-pleasant news, but it needs to be said. Currently, half of all adult Americans, and 54 percent of our children, have at least one chronic disease (according to the CDC).  In addition, chronic disease is responsible for at least seven out of 10 deaths. If that doesn’t scare you, I don’t know what will.  The time has come for us to stop ignoring elephants...
