A fast path to heart disease, diabetes or stroke
There is a “perfect storm” of health factors that can come together and practically guarantee that you will be facing heart disease, diabetes and/or stroke in your future. It’s Metabolic Syndrome. Metabolic Syndrome is a collection of health issues (that are rampant in our society today) that spell DANGER.

Why statins are a joke and heart healthy fats are BS
February is American Heart Month, and this year’s marks the 57th consecutive heart health month since President Lyndon B. Johnson (a heart attack survivor) issued the first proclamation in 1964. Unfortunately, much of the hype that will be bombarding us this month has very little to do with actual heart health! As usual, we’ll all be reminded to wear red, to control our cholesterol (with statins, of course) and avoid saturated fats while using...

A blatantly ignored cause of disease and death
Despite what you may read on most pharmaceutical company-sponsored “health” websites and even what your doctor may tell you, disease doesn’t just pop out of nowhere and bite poor unsuspecting you in the derriere.
