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...

All kidding aside, whether we like it or...
Feed disease or fight it—the choice is yours
As much as I would like to say otherwise, our current state of health is not “health” at all—it’s disease management. If you doubt what I’m saying, then consider these disturbing facts: 7 out of 10 of us take at least one prescription medication per day 75 percent of us are overweight or obese Over 60 percent of US adults have at least one chronic condition such as heart disease, cancer or Type 2...

Talk about fear mongering, sensationalism and drama—some of these well-groomed puppets ought to win Academy Awards.
