Beyond BO—what sweating really means!

  I ran 10.25 miles yesterday morning and to say I was sweaty afterwards is a bit of an understatement. As a matter of fact, my son (who turns 22 years old today!) looked at my running shirt that was literally dripping and said laughingly, “Nice, Mom.  You going to wear that to the office today?”  (Wise guy.)

Better than Tums or Nexium for acid reflux!

  If you’ve got acid reflux, heartburn, GERD or whatever you want to call it, know this: Those Tums, purple pills or whatever you’re taking on a regular basis might give you some relief from the fire in your chest in the moment, but alas, there’s trouble brewing within.  Here’s what I mean—let’s look at two of the most common drug answers for reflux: [[big4]]PPIs (proton pump inhibitors—like Prilosec, Prevacid and Nexium)[[end]] PPIs “work” by...

Could these be making us obese?

Back when I was a health insurance underwriter in the mid-1980s, the adult obesity rate in this country was 10 percent (according to the CDC). Some states had rates as high as 14 percent, but the average was about 10.
Now?
We’re looking at nearly 40 PERCENT of adults, and about one out of five children!
It’s time we started asking ourselves what in the world is going on!
First let’s start with…
