This is the third article on osteoporosis I am writing because some new information about osteoporosis has been revealed in the last couple of years. I know most of you think about osteoporosis as an old person’s disease since that is when you typically experience the broken hips and collapsed vertebra that this disease is […]
A couple of weeks ago I became attracted to learning more about the carnivore diet because it has the best track record for alleviating autoimmune disease conditions. Since I have two significantly high autoimmune antibody conditions against my thyroid and my collagen tissues, and twelve moderately high antibody levels against a boatload of other tissues, […]
We had a little Octoberfest party in the court in our neighborhood this past weekend. Everybody in the neighborhood brought a pot luck dish and we all sat around in a big circle chatting while the kids rode bikes and played basketball. Phil, my across the street neighbor, has one of those commercial snow cone […]
I have been interested in and researching metabolic detoxification pathways for about a month now. In the pursuit of health it is becoming increasingly clear that the modern challenge to health is primarily the buildup of toxic poisons in our body. This is pretty new for the history of human kind.

The average person has heard about lectins from the books by Dr. Peter D’Adamo like “Eat Right for […]
When I first got the idea to move to my present location, everyone who looked at the spot thought I was crazy. The building was in such bad condition that most folks thought I should just demolish the existing building and start over. I didn’t have the funds to do anything quite that ambitious, but […]
It is time to bring osteoporosis back up on my patients’ radar. Are you doing what is necessary to prevent this lifestyle disease?
