Take care of this—you can’t live without it
15 percent off storewide sale continues! Oftentimes someone who has been diagnosed with a sickness or disease will say that their illness "just came out of nowhere." Trust me, nothing could be farther from the truth. Sickness and disease very often develop gradually over time, and they take great care to seek out a nice, cozy home where they can wreak their havoc, preferably undisturbed. And one of the most significant factors that will...
This is vital for good health and a long life
Although the mainstream medical community is progressing toward acknowledging the importance of your gut in overall health, some of them still have a way to go. I was recently asked by a doctor if I thought it was important for her to take probiotics after finishing a course of “triple therapy” for ulcers—which consists of two antibiotics and an antacid. As tempted as I was to say, “Duh,” I responded respectfully and said yes,...
My experiment was an abysmal failure

I wrote letters to 65 local gastroenterologists in my surrounding area and along the east coast of Florida, introducing myself, including my curriculum vitae, and explaining that I would be happy to provide specialized meal suggestions and convenient guides that they could give to their patients to help address any dietary-related causes of their symptoms.

Got meds? Read this before you take them today.

The numbers prove it. Currently the CDC reports that 82 percent...
Awesome natural answers for digestive issues
If you’re among the 7 out of 10 people in the US who suffer from occasional or daily digestive problems, chances are excellent you’ve had Tums, Pepto Bismol or Rolaids as close companions. Maybe you’ve even graduated to the big guns—Nexium, Zantac, Pepcid or Prilosec. But these medications only cover up the problem, and not very well at that. Plus they do absolutely NOTHING to help your digestive system work the way it’s supposed...
3 Amazingly simple steps to better health
I once consulted with a 45-year-old woman who was overweight, stressed out, always tired, hadn’t exercised in years and had an atrocious diet. And she said something that no other client had ever said to me. She said, “I know what I need to do, but I just look at myself and say, ‘Why bother?’” If this even remotely sounds like you, then read on and see what I explained to this woman. It’s...
