NATURAL Solution for Devastating IBD
Inflammatory bowel diseases, like Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis, don’t just impact your gut… they impact your ENTIRE life. And so can the drugs used to treat them. These often include powerful drugs like immunomodulators, corticosteroids, and even chemotherapy. And, in some severe cases, you could require surgery to remove part of your gastrointestinal tract. Fortunately, […]
Would you pay $850 for a bowel movement? (Crazy!)
When your campsite is dug out of an ice wall on a high-altitude slope in frigid temperatures, bodily functions we take for granted can become a problem. For instance, while I was climbing Mount Denali in Alaska, bowel movements became a big deal. My climbing buddy, Paul, summed up this sentiment, “You know you’re getting […]
Our Tastiest Cancer-Fighter Yet
I live in the southwestern United States. And while the summers can be brutal, at least the winters are mild. This allows me to grow crops in my backyard garden. In the past, I’ve grown turnips, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, and cauliflower. They’re all members of the Brassicaceae family—more commonly known as cruciferous vegetables. And […]
Let’s Talk Testosterone
Testosterone. It’s the hormone most men worry about at some point. When it’s working as it should, everything is great. But what happens when this hormonal maestro plays a few wrong notes? Because the fact is, low testosterone (low T) isn’t just a blow to your manliness… it’s a potential life-altering roadblock. Let’s cut to […]
Asian Elixir Delivers HEAD to TOE Health
Let’s face it. The typical Western diet has some MAJOR flaws. It’s far too high in things we DON’T want, like sugar and empty carbs. And too low in things we should be eating MORE of, such as fermented foods. Fermented foods are one of your body’s BEST sources of probiotics, which are essential for […]
The TRUTH About Full-Fat Dairy and Diabetes
Do you remember when the dairy companies started touting skim milk for its weight loss benefits in the 80s? It’s called “skim” because they skim the fat off the top. Of course, the idea that drinking whole milk would pack on the pounds—and increase your risk of diabetes and heart disease in the process—was just […]
“Old” Drug Works Wonders for Painful Hand Arthritis
The older you get, the greater your chances of suffering from painful arthritis in your hands. But despite this condition being so common, there are limited drug treatments to rein in the pain—and most of the time, they’re ineffective. But instead of going through the time and expense of developing a new drug for this […]
“Secret Move” SLASHES Breast Cancer Risk
The medical community pushes screening tests as a first line of defense against breast cancer. But even with a successful screening, you’re dealing with early detection. Wouldn’t it be better not to get cancer in the first place? Recently, the most extensive study of its kind identified a STRAIGHTFORWARD way for women to slash breast […]

Dementia Risk PLUMMETS with a Personalized Plan
Earlier this week, I revealed how diet choices impact your Alzheimer’s risk—for better or worse. But DON’T stop there. It turns out you can send your risk of this devastating illness plummeting even FURTHER with a personalized plan. In fact, new research reveals that making specific diet and lifestyle changes can dramatically improve your dementia […]
“Fountain of Youth” Compound DEFIES Aging Inside and Out
As you age, it only takes a glance in the mirror to tell you that your skin is changing. You don’t look as youthful as you once did. Fine lines, wrinkles, and less elasticity impact your skin’s appearance. But the underlying issue that can make your skin look older is ALSO wreaking havoc on what […]
Mexican “Super Seeds” SLASH Blood Pressure
Sometimes, the BEST foods come in the smallest packages. That’s certainly the case with a tiny Mexican SUPER seed whose popularity has recently shot through the roof. Now, this potent little seed is in the spotlight again for its heart-health benefits, like slashing blood pressure and triglycerides. If you haven’t jumped on the chia seed […]
Dodge Disease with the “OTHER Orange” Drink
Chronic inflammation is the ENEMY of good health. It underlies EVERY condition you can think of, from a simple headache to devastating cancer and from common skin conditions to widespread diabetes. Inflammation plays a central role in such a wide range of conditions because it damages cells, tissues, DNA, and organs—no matter where they are […]
Diet Mistake Sends Dementia Risk SOARING
Researchers estimate that 78 million will develop dementia by 2030. With numbers like that, it could seem almost inevitable that your luck will eventually run out … or that it’s, at the very least, a toss of the dice. But a growing body of research shows that you DO have a say in how your […]
Do Vegetarians Live LONGER than Carnivores?
Meat-haters have bashed animal-based foods for decades. They insist that eating plants will give you a healthier, longer life—while eating meat will put you on the fast track to an early death. There’s no doubt that vegetables are good for you. You’ll get no argument from me on that point. But their other claim is […]
Skip Vitamin C Supplements and do THIS Instead
There’s no doubt boosting your vitamin C levels can help you stay healthier this winter. But there IS doubt about whether you need to take a supplement to get enough vitamin C to make an impact. Today, I’ll answer that question for you once and for all… Supplements are helpful when you can’t get the […]
Study REVEALS the BEST Diet for Your Brain
I have a love/hate relationship with studies that use dietary questionnaires to determine the benefits of specific foods. Yes, these studies can give insight into the benefits or harms of certain diets, but there’s just one problem… they rely on someone’s memory. (And you know how that goes.) Study after study concludes that eating a […]
Common Medical Test Could Cause CANCER
Leukemia (blood cancer) is the most common cancer in children and teens. And, it turns out, in some cases it could be CAUSED by mainstream medicine. A shocking new study uncovered a common health test that increases the risk of blood cancer in children by 16 percent. If you have kids or grandkids in your […]
Skip Knee Surgery and Try THIS Instead
If you have knee arthritis, you’re no stranger to pain. You’re also in good company. Approximately 14 million adults have osteoarthritis of the knee—and about half of them will end up getting a total knee replacement. If you don’t want to be one of them, there’s a move you can make that can slash your […]
“Lost” Cancer Solution SUPERCHARGES Life Expectancy
Cancer is a killer. We can all agree on that. But did you know that most folks who lose their lives to cancer… don’t actually DIE of cancer? Instead, something like sepsis or cachexia (when the body wastes away) often is what pushes someone over the edge. The drug companies will NEVER admit it. But […]
