Why does the media ignore these COVID facts?

Why does the media ignore these COVID facts?

  If you are a bit “seasoned” like I am, you probably remember when the “news” was actually that—reporting on important information or events taking place, with no opinions, hidden agendas or slants.  Now?  It’s a fear-inducing psychological operation carried out by very well-trained, well-groomed actors, and COVID has been their choice of topic 24/7 for the last nearly two years. But if these script readers truly cared about reporting NEWS, how about telling people...

I have a secret to tell you

I have a secret to tell you

  I have a little secret to share with you. Today is my birthday, and not only that, this is my LAST birthday in the 50s. Gulp! And while knocking on the door of 60 may sound a little scary on the surface, I honestly feel great! I’m still running every week, doing full-contact karate sparring (fighting men), and enjoying a consistent high level of energy. Plus I recently got mistaken as my daughter’s sister...

Could this be the magic answer to a longer life?

Could this be the magic answer to a longer life?

  I am going to go out on a limb today and say that most of us don’t want a visit from the grim reaper anytime soon. As a matter of fact, I suspect what the majority of people would say when asked what’s most important to them is good health and a long life! Well, that’s certainly what our bodies were designed to achieve.  Nature did not intend for you to be diseased, medicated,...

What the media won’t tell you about sunscreens

What the media won’t tell you about sunscreens

  It has been said that there are two certainties in life—death and taxes. I’ll add one more onto that—the fact that advertising works.  Very well. One motivator in particular that has been shown to work like a charm in the media is FEAR! There’s nothing quite like scaring the beejuzus out of someone, then selling a product as the magic answer to protect them from the dreaded outcome. And when it comes to sunscreens,...

Your #1 predictor of disease (Hint: It’s not your genes)

Your #1 predictor of disease (Hint: It’s not your genes)

  Modern medicine has traditionally focused on family history (i.e.: someone’s genes) as a strong predictor of whether or not a person will develop a certain disease. Think about any time you’ve ever gone to a doctor and had to fill out paperwork—they always ask if your grandparents, parents or siblings have had cancer, heart disease, diabetes, etc. Well, now evidence is emerging that family history is not the be all and end all of...

The best gift you could get isn’t under your tree

The best gift you could get isn’t under your tree

  I had a bit of a health scare recently. I had been teaching my karate class and putting my students (and myself) through an insane number of intense drills—lots of kicks, squats, sit-ups, push-ups and of course fighting. Well…later on I ended up with some pain in my low back and hips like I’ve never had before.  It brought tears to my eyes. And I got scared. I went to the doctor and after...
