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.

What does your tongue say about your health?

What does your tongue say about your health?

  Modern medicine uses a very pinpointed approach and typically narrows its diagnostic efforts on the “troublesome spot.” For example, if you go to the doctor reporting abdominal pain and diarrhea, you’ll likely get tests aimed at the gut, such as a lower GI series, ultrasound, colonoscopy or maybe a barium enema.

Could this be the best medicine of all?

Could this be the best medicine of all?

  That question probably grabbed your attention.  What do you think is the best medicine of all?  Many people would say antibiotics.  It’s true that they’ve helped to kill dangerous bacterial infections, but they have also destroyed our gut microbiomes (making us more susceptible to illness) and spurred the development of “Superbugs” that resist even our strongest drugs and can be life-threatening.  Others may say proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).   These drugs “work” by shutting down...
