Alert: Aspirin is no longer a heart attack preventive
Since the 1970s, cardiologists have been recommending a daily low-dose or baby aspirin as a preventive measure against heart attacks or strokes. It was even claimed that daily aspirin therapy could lower the risk of cardiovascular disease by as much as 10 percent! I’m sure Bayer was very happy with that statement. Well, that’s all changed now, and the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association have issued a “revised” position on...

Got high blood pressure? This is worse than salt!
An interesting phenomenon occurs once a statement is repeated over and over and over again. It’s believed to be true, even when that’s not necessarily the case! Take cigarettes, for example. For years the tobacco industry paid enough people off to repeatedly deny that smoking causes lung cancer. Until the evidence was undeniable, that is. Well, another example of this in action is the contention that salt causes high blood pressure. Because that’s not entirely...

And that's a shame because regular exercise has SO many outstanding health benefits! Here are 10...
You’ve been lied to—statins are NOT safe!
My math may be slightly off, but I’d estimate that 75 percent of the new clients that consult with me for diet and health advice are on statins. 75 PERCENT! And the thing is, none of them really feels good! Instead they report feeling tired, no energy, aches and pains, headaches and foggy thinking. When I enlighten them that ALL those symptoms are side effects of statins, they look shocked. “But my doctor told...

Read this before you take another statin!
It’s long been said in the marketing world that sex sells. All you need to do is look at the store windows and billboards on 5th Avenue to see that playing out before your eyes. Know what else sells? FEAR. And that’s a favorite tactic used by the pharmaceutical industry to sell you on their medications.
