We all have somebody we love more than ourselves. But our beloved sometimes becomes our victim when we cannot control ourselves. And we know that they will most likely forgive us. Therefore, we may become abusive, emotionally or physically. It is not good not only for us but for them as well. But how does it happen that we can hurt somebody we love so much? Is it us or is it something else? Continue reading “Why People Fight With Their Loved Ones” »

What Makes Smart People Act Stupid?
Friday, July 8th, 2011
When Congressman Anthony Weiner stood before dozens of reporters and announced that indeed he had been “unfaithful” to his wife by carrying on an internet relationship with someone else, everyone was disappointed. “What a dumb mistake,” we all said as we watched him tear up and admit that there was no defense to what he did. Then came the shocker: not only had he done this once, but there were several relationships, that he had been carrying on for years, with women all over the country, sending them photos of himself, from his public email account. There was no hiding it and no denying it. But how could something like this happen?

Is your child in danger of having stroke?
Sunday, September 19th, 2010
When an 80-year-old suffers a stroke, we accept it. It is terrible, but it’s common, a part of aging practically. But when a child suffers a stroke it’s a tragedy. They have their whole lives ahead of them. How will it affect their brain, their physical skills, their future?
“It turns out that stroke, by some estimates, is the sixth leading cause of death in infants and children. And experts say doctors and hospitals need to be far more aggressive in detecting and treating it,” says a New York Times article published about a boy named Jared, who suffered a stroke at the age of 7. (read the story here http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/19/health/19stroke.html).
How can we explain when children start having strokes? They do not have high blood pressure, they do not have high cholesterol, etc.
One plausible explanation is estrogen dominance ( this is my personal explanation ).
Why? Continue reading “Is your child in danger of having stroke?” »
Is bloating a reason for your weight gain?
Sunday, September 19th, 2010
As a society we seem to always be concerned with how we look. And, actually, rightfully so. We are, in general, overweight and unhealthy. As a whole, our western culture gives us bad skin, pains, toxins, hair loss, erectile dysfunction, etc. But, you set yourself some goals this New Year. You were going to lose weight. And you did. But your belly still sticks out like a balloon. What’s going on here? Your arms and legs, shoulders and face look thinner, but your belly just won’t go away.
Well, the answer is that you could just be bloated. Many times, you are assuming your still fat or that you need to “tone up” but really you need to look into your diet. Continue reading “Is bloating a reason for your weight gain?” »
Antidepressants Do Not Prevent Suicide
Tuesday, July 27th, 2010
Even though antidepressants are much more often prescribed today, and mostly to the baby boomer generation, the statistics show that the rate of suicide among those between 45-54 are still the highest. Why is that? Shouldn’t easier accessibility and more drugs be solving our problems.
Actually, instead, it proves the point exactly, that medication and magic pills don’t really solve everything.
WHY BEAUTY TREATMENTS FAIL AND HOW TO GET YOUR BEAUTY BACK NATURALLY
Thursday, July 8th, 2010Are you frustrated with beauty treatments because you spend a lot of money and still don’t look younger? Do you still have sagging skin and wrinkles you cannot hide with makeup? Do you feel tired because of sleepless nights, insomnia and mood swings?
Do you think that getting a few tiny wrinkles around your eyes is not a bid deal. What you do not know is: a few wrinkles may portend a big disaster in your life — aging with hormonal imbalance.
You wake up one day and you really look at yourself in the mirror. It didn’t happen overnight, but it sure feels like it did. You got old! Your wrinkles are prominent, your skin in sagging, you have bags under your eyes from lack of sleep, and you look tired and haggard. What caused this, and how did it happen to you? You are not ready to think of yourself as old, yet.
“Every wrinkle has a reason,” says Sergey Kalitenko, MD, an Anti Aging Holistic Physician, practicing in Great Neck, Nassau county, Long Island, as well as Brooklyn and Manhattan. “There are several reasons why wrinkles happen, and it’s important to know that they cannot all be treated the same way. You need to know the reason for wrinkles to treat them appropriately.”
At Dr. Kalitenko’s offices in Great Neck, they use biofeedback and other tests to look into the root cause of your aging problems, and find the right ways to identify, diagnose, and treat them.
Appropriate history taking, physical exam and tests will show that your wrinkles came from either:

Pain During Sex Can Ruin Your Relationship
Thursday, July 8th, 2010
Often patients come into my office and tell me that it was just impossible for them to have sex with their partners anymore. It is either pain caused by vaginal dryness, that was making it so terrible, or such severe back-pain, that they couldn’t stand it anymore.
Initially, they usually tell me, they put up with it for their mate’s sake. They do not want their partners to think that it was anything that their partners are doing. But eventually, they started avoiding intimacy, or coming up with excuses to not have it. They tell their mates the truth and tried various positions, but eventually they get turned off at always being hurting their partners. And they do not enjoy intimacy any more. Such patients are desperate.

Why Depression Medication Fails Us
Tuesday, June 15th, 2010Depression is a very serious subject and by no means does any doctor, functional, holistic or alternative, downplay the seriousness of what depression can cause. The symptoms of depression are vast, from physical to mental to emotional. The effects are devastating on it’s victims, families, careers, children and futures. Suicide is the most awful ending to depression, but it is not the most common at all.
Most people live with depression. Some seek counseling, while others just suffer through the symptoms. Many learn to live with the symptoms until life is only a shell of what it used to be. But this is not how to handle depression. Even treatment, with a psychiatrist and medication, may not always help the ways that one may expect.
Some of the basic signs of depression include: Continue reading “Why Depression Medication Fails Us” »
