OVERWEIGHT MODELS SENDING THE WRONG MESSAGE
As a caring physician, it is painful to witness the increasing number of models claiming their substantial weight gain (to the point of overweight and/or obesity) has produced a healthier happier person. In the United States, our rates of cancer, diabetes, cardiac disease and stroke have proven to be associated with unhealthy weight gain. As […]
I WANT YOUR MONEY!
Now there’s a bold title based on the fact that I typically offer my information and help without asking for any financial compensation! Is this a change of heart? NO!

Do You Contribute To Discovering The CURE For Breast Cancer?
The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation (later known as Susan G. Komen for the Cure) has become the largest and most well known breast cancer organization in the United States: It was started by Susan G Komen’s sister (Nancy Goodman Brinker) in 1982. We want to believe that tragedies like Susan’s story of breast […]
SAFER HEALTH OUTCOMES SOMETIMES REQUIRES DEFYING AUTHORITY GUIDELINES
Children will follow their parent’s guidance because the parent is a figure of authority “accepting responsibility.” Students will follow their teacher’s guidance because the teacher is a figure of authority “accepting responsibility.” Workers will follow their manager’s guidance because the manager is a figure of authority “accepting responsibility.” Farmers will follow the chemical company’s guidance […]
PROOF THAT “SYMPTOM FREE” DISEASE IS KILLING US
When it comes to health, human nature seems to rely on SYMPTOMS. These tangible disruptions provide the proof we need in order to accept that something is wrong. This approach to health and disease supports ALL major industries including medical, agricultural, pharmaceutical and chemical. It does so by withholding factual truths from the consumer who […]
THERE IS NO WAR ON CANCER
As much as we’d like to believe our health care system is vehemently using every available resource to combat cancer in its goal to discover a CURE, the existing evidence contradicts this finding. The following quoted paragraphs come from Kaiser Health News (links provided if you choose to read the articles in their entirety.) KAISER […]
STOP CALLING IT “HIDDEN” SUGAR!
The World Health Organization (WHO) provided a document supplied by the Centers For Disease Control (CDC) entitled, “Consumption of Added Sugars Among U.S. Adults, 2005–2010.” In this document, it was determined that the maximum daily consumption of added sugar should not exceed: 25 grams or 6 teaspoons per day. (REFERENCE: Consumption of Added Sugars Among […]
INCREASING LIFE EXPECTANCY BY 3 1/2 MONTHS
  The average consumer believes our medical community is diligently working hard to develop the Cure for cancer. We even reinforce this belief by attaching the word, “Cure” to numerous events (ex. Susan G Komen’s “Race For The Cure.”) In reality, medical science is working on developing treatments designed to treat cancer as a chronic […]
THE CANCER DIAGNOSIS
Cancer is a dreaded diagnosis. It understandably elicits FEAR and a need for IMMEDIATE ACTION. In many cases, we are better off taking a step “backward” to give ourselves a chance to clear our racing minds before proceeding with ANY course of care. It also gives us a chance to reflect on our past ATTITUDE […]

50% OF WOMEN, 33% OF MEN WILL BE DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER. ARE YOU PREPARED TO MAKE THE BEST CHOICE OF TREATMENT?
Pretend the people standing in camouflage represent CANCER CELLS. Pretend the people kneeling in orange represent HEALTHY CELLS. If a powerful bomb was positioned as in this photograph and allowed to detonate, there is a good chance many (if not all) of the cancer cells would be destroyed. There is also a good chance that […]
The $2,000,000.00 Cost To A Family To Save A Child From A Cancer Diagnosis
Cancer is one of the most feared diagnoses anyone faces. This fear is exponentially compounded when a doctor informs a parent their child has this dreaded disease. We assume the health care system maintains the highest ethical and moral standards providing thorough evaluations and treatment recommendations based on their comprehensive evaluation practices. Have you ever […]
STARVE A COLD, FEED YOUR CANCER SUGAR?
After reading a quote that David Just (researcher of the Cornell Center For Behavioral Economics) made to the Chicago Tribune pertaining to junk food and weight, I required the use of both hands to close my mouth!

Diabetes, Obesity, Cancer: The Missing Component
. Disease is a state of ill health RESULTING FROM an imbalance or multiple imbalances within our bodies. It is (in general,) NOT SOMETHING WE “CATCH.” It is important to recognize this subtle difference because it changes our approach to battling infections and diseases. Diabetes, Obesity and Cancer are merely examples of this imbalance. Most […]
“If Healthy Food Was Cheap I’d Buy It!”
For so long people have been chanting the mantra, “If Healthy Food Was Cheap I’d Buy It and Eat It!” I’m not sure they would because: People seem to eat what they want They have never taken the time to calculate the cost difference Most people don’t eat for health; they eat for taste, fullness […]
MILK, Does A Body Good (Or Does It?)
