What is the best medicine of all?
There’s a loaded question! What do you think is the best medicine of all? Many people would say antibiotics. Well, it’s true that they’ve saved lives, but they have also destroyed our gut microbiomes and spurred the development of “Superbugs” that resist our strongest antibiotics and can pose a threat to your life. Others may say proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). These drugs do what they’re supposed to—shut down your stomach acid so it can’t...
The one thing you must do to enjoy great health
I must admit that sometimes my profession can be entertaining. For example, when I ask a new client, “How’s your diet?” I’m either going to get the doe in the headlights look, or they’ll look down at the floor, or they’ll say something like, “Um, well, not bad.” When I hear that, I know it’s bad! Now, typically when people come to me to improve their health, they want an answer to the magic question: ...

Here’s the scoop on this often overlooked but amazingly common health issue,...
Don’t use sunscreen until you read this!
I’m sure you’ve noticed that in the world of advertising, sex sells. Victoria’s Secret ads are a perfect example—it’s easy to sell a bunch of grossly overpriced bras by showing the “angels” modeling them. Knows what else sells? Fear! And when it comes to sunscreens, fear of skin cancer is the golden ticket. But I have a few questions here and you should too: Is the sun truly the evil, skin-cancer-creating monster it’s been...

A rising cause of obesity, autoimmune disease & more
It shouldn’t be this way, but as a nation we have seriously screwed up something that should be relatively straightforward. FOOD! Food simply isn’t food anymore. Plus, one day you can read a study that says a certain food is bad, and the next day another study that says it’s healthy! So naturally people don’t know what to eat anymore, and when they ask me for advice, the simplest way I can put it...
