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...
Make 2021 the year you end your IBS!
I recently struck up a conversation with a couple of women at a holiday get-together. When it came up that I’m a nutrition coach, one of the women said, “Oh, that explains why you’re so healthy-looking and thin. I bet you’ve always been super-healthy, right?” They were shocked when I said, “Nope—not at all! Thirty years ago I was suffering big time with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). But that’s all over now.” One of...
Another great reason to give up fast food
I live in Upstate NY, but I believe it’s safe to say that there is no shortage of long lines wrapped around the drive-thru windows of fast food restaurants anywhere in the world. Fair statement? I don’t care what time of day it is—every time I drive by McDonalds, Wendy’s or Burger King, there is a sea of cars waiting in line for their paper-wrapped offerings. It makes me a bit crazy when I see...
Why you should look in your toilet before you flush
I think it’s safe to say that when most people have symptoms such as intense pain, trouble breathing, fainting, swelling or bleeding, they realize their body is saying something is wrong and it’s probably time to see a doctor. But other times there may be trouble brewing, yet your body is more subtle with the hints it gives you. One way your body tries to tell you, “Hey, something’s not right here” is through...
Forget those weight loss resolutions—do this instead
2021 is upon us and I would like to wish you a very Happy New Year! Once the clock reached midnight and you bid adieu to 2020, you know what follows… New Year’s Resolutions! While the subjects of people's New Year's resolutions can run the gamut, consistently topping the list year after year is losing weight! Unfortunately, many people are doomed before they start because they have an instant gratification mindset. Sure, they want to drop a few sizes. But if it all doesn’t happen by January 15th, their motivation goes out the...
