Gut Check: How Healthy Is Yours, Really?
If you ask the average person how they think an unhealthy gut would affect them, I bet most people would mention things like gas, bloating, constipation and diarrhea. Very true, but that’s just the tip of the intestinal iceberg. Over the last 30+ years, studies of the gut microbiome have continued to expand and have shown that these tiny microorganisms that call you home play a MAJOR role in every aspect of your body’s functioning! Here’s what I mean. The mighty microbiome When you consider that your gut microbiome houses 80 percent of your immune system, is predominantly responsible for...
A special Veteran’s Day message
(Note: Our office will be closed today in recognition of the holiday.) Before I get into today’s message, I would like to pay tribute on this Veteran’s Day to two veterans who are very dear to me—my father and my son-in-law.

My experiment was an abysmal failure
I recently conducted a little experiment to see if my suspicions were correct. And they were. 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.
I have never heard of this before, but apparently October is National Talk About Prescriptions Month. Good, because I have a lot to say about that subject, so I’ll jump right in. Although there are times when medications are necessary, as a society (especially here in the US) we’ve gone WAAAY overboard and are increasingly relying on drugs to “create health” for us.
