What does your tongue say about your health?
Modern medicine uses a very pinpointed approach and typically narrows its diagnostic efforts on the “troublesome spot.” For example, if you go to the doctor reporting abdominal pain and diarrhea, you’ll likely get tests aimed at the gut, such as a lower GI series, ultrasound, colonoscopy or maybe a barium enema. On the other hand, traditional medicine (which includes acupuncture and Ayurveda) looks at the entire body as a series of parts and systems...
The truth about skin cancer and sunscreen
I’ve probably told you this before, but I’m a people watcher. Not in a strange way! Instead I observe people’s behaviors from an educational perspective, especially as they relate to health and lifestyle habits. I was at the beach recently and noticed that, with very few exceptions (including myself), everyone around me was diligently and regularly applying their sunscreen. And all I could think to myself is, “Fear is an excellent marketing tactic.”...
One thing you simply cannot ignore!
If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my 42-year career in the health field, it’s this: Our bodies are FAR smarter than we give them credit for, and your body will let you know what it needs and when it needs it. The key here is that you have to listen! For example, when your body needs nutrients, you feel hunger. When it needs rest, you feel tired. When it’s repairing an injury,...
5 Diet Misconceptions... Have you been fooled?
I’m going to start today’s blog by giving you some rather unsettling statistics. Currently in the US: Seven out of ten adults have at least one chronic condition, and shockingly, so do 54 percent of our children. Three out of four of us are overweight or obese. Eight out of ten of us are medicated, and over half of us take two or more medications each day. What in the world is going ON? Well,...
If you have a decent diet, do you need a multi-vitamin?
Now there is a good question that does not have a simple answer! It used to be that most people who had a “balanced diet” did not have much of a need for a multi-vitamin, since they would usually get what their bodies needed from their foods. Multi-vitamins were primarily for people whose diets were less-than-stellar, or perhaps people who for a variety of reasons were not able to fully absorb or use nutrients...
Why do doctors ignore this as a cause of disease?
Despite what you may hear (or more accurately, not hear) on the “news,” (aka pharmaceutically funded propaganda), what the CDC (also close with pharma) says, and even what your doctor (whose education was designed by pharma) may tell you, disease doesn’t mysteriously pop out of nowhere and blindside poor unsuspecting you. Disease is not normal, it is not a reflection of your body needing some drug, it’s not something that is normal as you...
