You better do this—your life depends on it

    Today is National Chronic Disease Day, and as it typically goes with “national days” like these, one of the objectives is to raise awareness of chronic disease. Well, all I can say is that, as a nation where 7 out of 10 of us have at least one chronic condition, it appears we are very well “aware” of chronic disease.

This “Wonder Drug” isn’t all it’s cracked up to be

  There’s an old saying that goes, “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.” Those wise words are especially pertinent to the latest “Holy Grail” of the weight loss world. Semaglutide!

This had better change…or we’re doomed

This had better change…or we’re doomed

  You have probably heard of the Hippocratic Oath that many doctors recite upon completion of medical school.  It encapsulates the standards and principles of medical care since the time of the ancient Greek physician Hippocrates.     But you’ve likely never seen the actual text of the oath!  Note that it has been updated from its original form, so here are some excerpts from a more current version: I swear to fulfill, to the best...
