Beyond BO—what sweating really means!

Beyond BO—what sweating really means!

  I ran 10.25 miles yesterday morning and to say I was sweaty afterwards is a bit of an understatement. As a matter of fact, my son (who turns 22 years old today!) looked at my running shirt that was literally dripping and said laughingly, “Nice, Mom.  You going to wear that to the office today?”  (Wise guy.) All kidding aside, whether we like it or not, everyone sweats from time to time and that’s...

This could increase your risk of COVID-19

This could increase your risk of COVID-19

  Being in lockdown for nearly two months has arguably caused as many (or more) health problems than the coronavirus itself. Not only are people overeating, drinking far more alcohol than they usually do, gaining weight and not getting as much exercise (due to gyms and health clubs being closed), but there is also the potential for increased depression and anxiety, suicides, heart attacks and diabetic kidney problems and more.

A sneaky health wrecker that’s overlooked by doctors

A sneaky health wrecker that’s overlooked by doctors

  Probably the biggest downfall of our mainstream medical system is that it’s primarily symptom-focused and not cause-focused.  So much emphasis is placed on prescribing measures (usually drugs) that lessen or take away symptoms while the underlying cause remains largely unexplored. As a result, millions of people spend a good part of their lives chained to a prescription bottle because without it, their symptoms come back and they feel miserable.  Plus let’s not forget that...

What’s causing your “Monster breath” and how to stop it

What’s causing your “Monster breath” and how to stop it

  I think it’s safe to say that most people have fears of spiders, snakes and public speaking. Well, we should add bad breath on to that list! Just look in the “oral care” aisle of most stores—you’ll see an ocean of minty toothpastes, rinses and mouthwashes, all promising to tame your “Monster breath.” But using mouthwash for bad breath is like putting a Band-Aid on a broken leg.  Sure, your mouth might feel clean...
