Tired? Joint aches? It could be Lyme disease!

  I would like to sincerely thank all of you for the incredible number of responses I received to Wednesday’s blog asking for your questions and topic requests!  After all, this blog is for you—so I’m happy to know what you want to hear about or are concerned about.

  Here we go again. The pharmaceutical industry has made yet ANOTHER “slip-up” that has potentially threatened the lives of millions of people using one of its toxic medications.

10 Ways to boost your energy fast!

  I’m going to go out on a limb today and guess that you don’t always have nearly the level of energy that you’d like to have. Fair statement? It’s not surprising.  Lacking energy is one of the most common reasons that people consult their doctors.  But what makes this challenging is that there are many potential reasons why you may be resembling Dagwood Bumstead on a regular basis.
