Recovered from COVID? How to heal your lungs!

Recovered from COVID? How to heal your lungs!

  As of this writing, based on CDC data, 98.4 percent of the positive COVID cases in this country have survived.  While that number may be encouraging, some of the people who already contracted COVID and recovered are frustrated because they feel “better” but not entirely “back to normal” yet. That’s because COVID is known for its inflammatory “cytokine storm” that especially likes to attack the lungs…and some people have reported that they are having...

Rates of this condition have skyrocketed since COVID

Rates of this condition have skyrocketed since COVID

  May is National Mental Health Awareness Month, and that topic brings back vivid memories about my father from my childhood.  You see, in addition to dying of a massive heart attack at age 58 (when I was 15), my Dad was also an alcoholic.  I didn’t understand as a kid what may have been the driving force behind his drinking—all I knew was that I couldn’t have friends over because I was too embarrassed,...

This COVID risk factor is under your control

This COVID risk factor is under your control

  If the last year has taught us one thing, it’s that having underlying co-morbidities with COVID dramatically increases your risk of serious complications, hospitalization and even death.  The “three biggies” here are high blood pressure, obesity, and diabetes. But the common denominator underlying all of these is insulin resistance.  Insulin resistance drives up your blood glucose level, triggering diabetes as well as stirring up the inflammation in your blood vessels that contributes to high...

Half of US adults have this COVID-19 risk factor—do you?

Half of US adults have this COVID-19 risk factor—do you?

  According to the American Heart Association, currently about 103 million Americans have high blood pressure—that’s nearly HALF of adults in the US!  High blood pressure is the number one cause of heart disease and stroke, plus it raises your risk of heart failure and heart attack too.  It can also damage small arteries, resulting in kidney failure or vision loss, and raises your risk of dementia. And most recently, it is a co-morbid condition...

A blatantly ignored cause of disease and death

A blatantly ignored cause of disease and death

  Despite what you may read on most pharmaceutical company-sponsored “health” websites and even what your doctor may tell you, disease doesn’t just pop out of nowhere and bite poor unsuspecting you in the derriere. Disease is not normal, it is not a reflection of your body needing some drug, it’s not something you should expect as you age, and it is not some mysterious phenomenon that nobody can explain and for which you have...
