10 warning signs you shouldn’t ignore
I would suspect that most people don’t wish to overreact to every little ache, pain and symptom that may pop up and instead try to “wait it out” and hope that the issue resolves itself.

A sneaky factor behind our obesity explosion
Here’s an eye-opening statistic--currently, nearly eight out of 10 Americans are overweight or obese. And those numbers are not going down. Of course, the begging question here is: What in the world is going on? Why is it our “new normal” to be overweight?

Let’s say you were suffering from fatigue no matter how much you slept, you felt like you were in a fog most days and you were putting on weight without changing your diet?

Putting on weight and have no energy? This may be why.
Two of the most common concerns people report to their doctors are lacking energy and gaining weight. This Nutrition coach hears a lot of that too. But the problem is that trying to pinpoint the underlying cause of low energy and packing on pounds is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Could it be your thyroid? Menopause? Nutrient deficiencies? Depression? Medication side effects? Not exercising enough? All good possibilities. But one...
