10 Smart strategies for a longer life

10 Smart strategies for a longer life

  Here is a startling statistic to wake you up on this Monday morning. For the first time ever, children of today are not expected to live as long as their parents. Despite all our scientific and medical “advances,” we continue to get sicker and sicker…and eventually our life expectancy will start to decrease in future generations. Now the begging question here is: What in the world is going on? Well, there are many factors...

Why modern medicine is an abysmal failure

Why modern medicine is an abysmal failure

  I once had a client who was a textbook illustration of the failure of modern medicine. He came to me reporting a medical history of fainting episodes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and heartburn. He said his medications included these: Ranitidine (for heartburn) Hydrochlorothiazide (for hypertension) Amlodipine (for hypertension) Atorvastatin (for cholesterol) After talking with him about his fainting episodes and reviewing his diet record, I began to suspect that he was allergic to...

I have a secret to tell you

I have a secret to tell you

  I have a little secret to share with you. Today is my birthday, and not only that, this is my LAST birthday in the 50s. Gulp! And while knocking on the door of 60 may sound a little scary on the surface, I honestly feel great! I’m still running every week, doing full-contact karate sparring (fighting men), and enjoying a consistent high level of energy. Plus I recently got mistaken as my daughter’s sister...

A disturbing trend in our society today

A disturbing trend in our society today

  In addition to being the month in which yours truly was born, August is also National Wellness Month. And while that sounds very virtuous and positive, based on my observations, there isn’t a lot of “wellness” going on. The statistics are downright shocking:  Nearly 75 percent of us are overweight or obese, seven out of 10 of us take one or more prescription medications every day, over 70 percent have digestive problems and half...
