Diabetes now linked to these chronic conditions

Diabetes now linked to these chronic conditions

Currently in the US about 30 million people have diabetes, with the majority of those cases (90 – 95 percent) being type 2.

In addition, it is estimated that another 80 million have “pre-diabetes”--elevated blood glucose. 

And as the number of diabetes cases continues to rise, scientists are spending more time investigating its relationship to other conditions.

For example, past studies have shown that people with diabetes are more likely to report muscle or joint pain than nondiabetics.

But the latest study out of Denmark is more specific…and worrisome.

What your tongue is trying to tell you

What your tongue is trying to tell you

When a person wakes up one day with excruciating pain, a high fever or a rash all over their body, it’s pretty obvious that something is wrong, and they better find out what it is.

But sometimes the warning signals your body gives you aren’t so obvious—they’re more subtle.

And nowhere is this truer than in your mouth—specifically, your tongue.

Got fatigue? Brain fog? This could be why

Got fatigue? Brain fog? This could be why

It continues to boggle my mind that nutrients are the LAST thing that doctors look at (or better yet, they’re completely ignored) when a patient comes in complaining of symptoms.  Because being low in ANY nutrient can have a tremendous impact on your health!  And nowhere is this truer than with Vitamin B12!

The BS behind the pink ribbons

The BS behind the pink ribbons

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and pink ribbons are EVERYWHERE to remind people to be aware of breast cancer (as if we’re not already)….and of course, for women to dutifully get their mammograms.
Walks, runs and other fund-raising events are conducted to help “find the cure.”

Food labels—don’t be fooled by their tricks

Food labels—don’t be fooled by their tricks

The “Nutrition Facts” shown on food labels are supposed to give you useful information on the nutritional value of what you’re buying as well as disclose the ingredients, so you can decide if it’s right for you.  Unfortunately, it’s not that cut and dry.  Instead food manufacturers use several little tricks to mislead you, fool you or out and out lie to you to compel you to buy their products…even if that means jeopardizing your health!
