10 warning signs you shouldn’t ignore

10 warning signs you shouldn’t ignore

  I would suspect that most people don’t wish to overreact to every little ache, pain and symptom that may pop up and instead try to “wait it out” and hope that the issue resolves itself. But there are certain signals your body may be giving you that you definitely should not ignore. Although some of the possible causes behind these symptoms can be relatively minor, they may also mean something more serious that should...

The health scare no one talks about

The health scare no one talks about

  While it seems to be the current focus of our national health agencies to scare the bejeezus out of people talking about the flu, COVID, monkeypox and whatever other viruses they can point a finger at, there is a glaring failure in how these agencies “serve and inform” us. I’m talking about chronic disease. Currently, half of all adult Americans, and shockingly 54 percent of our children, have at least one chronic disease (according...

Beware! This is even more dangerous than sugar!

Beware! This is even more dangerous than sugar!

  Important announcement at the end, please read through.

Well, there are a lot of factors behind the scenes, including processed/fast foods, lack of exercise, exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, chronic stress and the resulting elevated cortisol levels, and our...

Do you get enough of these longevity nutrients?

Do you get enough of these longevity nutrients?

  Today is my birthday and while the thought of turning 62 can be a bit unsettling, I am thankful for all of my incredible blessings—my family, my cats, my God, the martial arts, and of course, great health! I love being able to say that I’m in my 60s, take no medications, easily maintain my weight, have boatloads of energy and can still run and do full-contact sparring…and I have no intention of stopping...

Are these really just “a bunch of crap”?

Are these really just “a bunch of crap”?

 *Important general office-hours announcement at the end - Please read through* I once had a client who told me that when she mentioned to her doctor that she was taking a multi-vitamin, he basically scolded her and said she “doesn’t need that crap.” Interesting perspective.  Not only are vitamins NOT a bunch of crap, but our need for non-food sources of nutrients has continued to expand. At one time (several decades ago) people who had...
