A sneaky factor behind our obesity explosion

  Here’s an eye-opening statistic--currently, nearly eight out of 10 Americans are overweight or obese. And those numbers are not going down.

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!

These can either make or break your health

These can either make or break your health

What you must know about osteoporosis

What you must know about osteoporosis
