I did this so I could sleep at night
I’ve often been asked why I chose to earn my Master’s degree in Holistic Nutrition versus traditional or mainstream nutrition. Good question. And the answer boils down to this: I wanted to be able to sleep peacefully at night and look at myself in the mirror in the morning. I also wanted to be able to speak the truth and not be criticized for it. Here’s what I mean. The nutrition industry (like many...
Will this well-proven health measure be next on the chopping block?
In case you haven’t noticed, marketing is all about creating a need (and subsequent demand) for a certain product. This can be done in a number of ways. First and foremost, everyone knows that sex sells, so typically the product being advertised is presented with a scantily clad model or two. “New and different” formulas spark the consumer’s interest and desire to try the “new” version, even if it’s not significantly different from the...
Stop the cycle of manipulation now!
I rarely watch TV, but after getting a taste of a morning news program while I was waiting to have blood drawn recently, I decided to conduct a little experiment and watch an hour of mainstream news. All I can say is it was sickening, and I couldn’t even make it a full hour. And I’m not even talking about the sensationalism and fear mongering oozing from the actors, er, I mean newscasters.

Part of his very thorough workup was a...
You’re looking younger every day!
I think that the list of things that people dread the most include public speaking, spiders, snakes and AGING! The latter is especially a concern for people in the entertainment industry and many of them have taken the route of the knife to turn back the hands of time… not always with the greatest of results. What we all have to acknowledge is that time marches on for everyone, and eventually our bodies show...
How to keep your brain sharp (and a fun quiz!)
Back when my dear mother was still in a nursing home (prior to her passing in 2015 at age 94), every time I would visit her, I would pop my head into the doorway of her room and say, “Hi Mom! How are you?” She would always respond, “Well, Sher, I hurt from head to toe (with arthritis), but I still know who you are!” Ah yes, age-related cognitive decline is a very real...
