Poisons, poisons everywhere. I have written many articles on the huge variety of poisons in our food, water, air, and living environments.

Few topics are as near and dear to everyone’s heart as how to lose weight. More magazine covers are spent on this topic in the checkout line at your local grocery store than any other subject. The amazing thing is how many weight loss diets there are out there. How can there possibly be so […]
Last week a patient asked me why I hadn’t written an article on intermittent fasting. I was amazed, because it has been a mainstay of my lifestyle for years now.

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 […]
