5 Simple Ways to Keep Your Brain Sharp as You Age

5 Simple Ways to Keep Your Brain Sharp as You Age

Still Sharp at 94 — and How You Can Be Too When my mother was in a nursing home prior to her passing in 2015 at age 94, every visit began the same way.I’d pop my head into her room and say, “Hi Mom! How are you?” She’d smile and reply, “Well, Sher, I hurt from head to toe—but I still know who you are!” Age-related cognitive decline is a very real and scary thing....

Stop & Reverse the Cycle of Poor Health!

Stop & Reverse the Cycle of Poor Health!

  I’ll start your day with a not-so-rosy statistic. Currently nearly 70% of US adults have at least one chronic disease, including heart disease, cancer, stroke, chronic respiratory disease (like COPD), Alzheimer’s, diabetes, kidney disease and liver disease.

Our food and healthcare systems play a significant role in...

Are your meds making you sicker?

Are your meds making you sicker?

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...
