There doesn’t need to be a toxic oil spill in your backyard in order for your water to be poisoned. The truth is that much of our water is poisoned already. So, a recent article in the Huffington post that showed that there were high levels of carcinogens found in water in the Gulf, isn’t that surprising.
The reasons for that are simple:…
- There was a major oil spill that will affect water, wildlife and people for decades to come,
- And all water is toxic to levels that it shouldn’t be…everywhere!(1) Continue reading “Carcinogens Found in Gulf Water Are Only A Small Sign Of Toxins in All Water” »

A recent article stated that weight loss surgery has been found to be more effective in teens than dieting ( http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/abstract/303/6/519 ). It is studies and articles like these that may be destroying childrens’ health. This kind of study demonstrates that any information can be manipulated to get the results that researcher’s want.
Teenagers getting liposuction or gastric bypass surgery? Do you think that is really necessary at such a young age, without truly knowing the results? Does it sound like a travesty to you? Continue reading “Weight Loss Surgery Can Be Crippling For Teens” »

We expect that when something new about modern medicine is discovered, we will find the best course of action and treatment, and as a society, will move towards that, but it is proven time and time again how that theory can be completely wrong.
The “Courage” Study in 2007 was supposed to change the way that cardiologists functioned. Basically, it found that a generic group of drugs yielded the same results as a $15,000 heart stent procedure. And this was supposed to change everything. Doctors would start realizing that this was the right way to go, and not put their patients through procedure of questionable value. But that did not happen.

While it may be ok to work up a sweat during exercise or physical activity, night sweats are something completely different, and diagnosing it as just a symptom of menopause can do more harm than good.
The truth is that there are several things that can be causing your night sweats, and it’s important, for each reason, to see a holistic doctor and get it checked out, so that it isn’t just cast aside as a menopausal symptom. Continue reading “Ever thought about nature of Night Sweats?” »

Where do we stop when it comes to getting skinny? That’s often the question we ask when looking at a picture of a gaunt supermodel that we will never know, whose look we will never achieve. Or, we ask it when we hear about Hollywood and eating disorders.
But recently, the government is jumping in on trying to cure the obesity problem in the United States Continue reading “FDA tries to cure obesity with dangerous weight loss surgery. Is surgery the only option?” »

If you knew that cancer has been around since the beginning of time, doesn’t the thought of a cure seem impossible? But what if you were told that cancer is actually not only on the rise, but didn’t exist in ancient history. That knowledge can lead to amazing breakthroughs in science, as well as hope for all of us that a change in our lifestyle may be a way to prevent the disease.
We see articles about it all the time. This medication now found to cause cancer, this activity now thought to lower the risk of cancer, this food linked to cancer or cancer prevention. It’s impossible to keep up. Even as a doctor, you’re recommendations to patients would constantly be changing, based on this study or that. Continue reading “Mummies Don’t Get Cancer” »

There is no doubt that stomach-reducing surgeries can make you look and feel better. A guaranteed quick fix, it has become more and more common in the United States. Singer Carnie Wilson had a bigger career surrounding her weight loss surgery, health campaign, and eventual weight gain, than she did as the singer in the 90s pop band Wilson Phillips.
We have come to depend on these stomach surgeries when we feel that we have no other options. But the truth is, that once you have this surgery, you are forever altering your body, forever changing the way that your body takes in nutrients and micro elements. You will never be normal again.

Several years back a local elected official in order to prove a point to government, set himself on a poor man’s diet. What he did was basically put his whole family on welfare for a month, to show how a poor family survives on little money. He took a $200 check and used it to buy a month’s supply of groceries.
What do you think happened to him at the end of 30 days? What do you spend per month on food?
I’ll tell you what would happen to the average family ( not this particular one ), if it has to eat cheap food: the whole family would end up unhealthy, feeling bloated and tired. They also would gain weight. It’s interesting that there is a nationally known term as “fat poor.” We used to assume that people who are poor would be skinny, because they couldn’t afford to eat, but instead, the horrible truth is that they eat unhealthy, cheaper food, filled with sugar and starch that fills them up longer. A nice dinner out for a family who can’t afford a sit down restaurant is usually fast food, which is loaded in fat, but quick and cheap.

When a food recall is announced, the United States media jumps on the story. Words like “poisoned,” “contaminated,” “deadly” have become a part of our vocabulary in recent years, thanks to food recalls. It tears the industry apart and no doubt, has lasting effects on people.
Mad cow disease, tomatoes, kids peanut butter crackers, and now eggs, we are faced with a myriad of information that we have to filter through every time. What’s truly dangerous, is it in our area, what can we do to protect ourselves, is it ever safe to buy the product again, what’s next?
The truth is, that even with FDA controls, we can never truly protect the quality of our foods. There is always an opening for poisons, contamination, and deadly consequences.

Not long ago, a young man in his early 30s who was a patient of mine came back from a long international flight and noticed soon after that his left leg was swelling. In the long run, turned out he had a blood clot in his leg. He went to the hospital in time, his life was saved and we all thought he was lucky. Until he developed a clot again while on the plane, and this one he didn’t recover from. He was rushed from the airport to the emergency room when he died in the hospital.
So, how did this happen? This young man, like so many of us, took too many chances on his flight.
So, how can we stay healthy in flight?

It can become just as harmful for someone living with a spouse who is suffering from depression, as it is for the sufferer. You can feel just as alone and lonely, you can be stuck doing the work of two, also trying to keep the relationship while repairing your spouse. You can choose to be unhealthy and eat unhealthy because your surroundings are sad and depressing. From the physical to the emotional, living with a spouse with depression can be detrimental and bordering on abusive.
So how do you help your spouse get the help they need?

The “whole grains” you may be paying for, may actually not make a difference in your health! Even though the recent study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, says that in combination with other healthy behavior, whole grain cereal may lower your risk for heart failure, it still does not sound convincing. And here is why.
This article, as well as other articles about using whole grain cereals ( like JAMA article about whole grains and risk of stroke ), was done on the group of people, who are adherent to a healthy life style, which includes not only eating whole grain cereals, but also exercising, refraining from smoking, maintaining low body mass index, etc.. So it is not really clear from these articles, what the benefit is coming from: whole grains or something else.

Taking proper care of your mouth and teeth can save your life, and save you from a lifetime of chronic illnesses. Many of our illnesses have to do with inflammation, from arthritis to heart attack. Inflammation occurs when our bodies try to separate the illness from the rest of the body and is our body’s natural defense mechanism. But with the advent of the modern western lifestyle it may be working against us instead of protecting us.
