How often have you talked yourself out of doing something you want to do? How many times have you said, “I’m not ready,” or “I don’t have time”? If, like most of us, the answer is many, you’re likely letting self-doubt and fear run your life. Self-doubt is very sneaky. It masks itself as a […]
I get a lot of headaches. Everyone manifests their stress in different ways (crappy sleep, for example, or an irritable gut…) but I carry mine squarely in my neck and shoulder muscles. Which, consequently, translates to frequent tension headaches. I’ve also had the distinct displeasure, in recent years, of experiencing migraines. Now that’s some nasty pain. I have newfound sympathy for […]

In my first post on this topic, Passport to Slim: Weight Loss Secrets from Around the World, I talked about how (and why) other countries kick our butts all over the place in terms of staying trim & healthy.

So stress management is a very important part of a healthy lifestyle. That said, a lot of people have no idea where to […]

When I was younger I used to avoid nuts because of their high fat content. You too? Fortunately, we now know about the blissful thing called “healthy fat“. There’s no doubt, nuts do contain a lot of fat, but most of it is the monounsaturated kind (same stuff that’s in olive oil). And that sort of fat is good for your cholesterol profile, […]

Is CRP a test you should be getting done? Chances are, you’ve never even heard of it. (If you have: bonus points to you!) CRP stands for C-Reactive Protein, and it’s a marker for inflammation. But we also use it as a screening test for heart disease risk. At this point you might be asking: what does inflammation […]

A new study found that celery (specifically, luteolin, a compound found within celery) had brain-boosting power in older mice. Yes, celery. So this got me thinking: are there other things you can do to upgrade your smarty-pants quotient? You betcha. Omega-3 fatty acids are well-known to boost brain function. This, in addition to all the other health benefits of omega-3, […]

Used to be, all fats were considered bad. We gobbled down low-fat versions of everything, assuming this was the path to true health. This was not a good time in dietary history, as far as I’m concerned. Three words: Low. Fat. Cheese. Ugh. Thankfully, we now know that dietary fat is not nutritionally black and […]

Have you recently come across the concept of manifestation but feel skeptical? I get it… I was, too. As a doctor, I was trained to be skeptical of anything without a scientific explanation.
