Probiotics Help Lower Blood Pressure

  Honestly, what can’t probiotics do? They lift your mood, help digestion, alleviate constipation, boost your immune system, control yeast and fungal overgrowth, promote healthy skin, and now…   … lower blood pressure!     A recent meta-analysis looked at over 9 different clinical trials spanning over 500+ patients, and found that consuming probiotics lead to a decrease in systolic blood pressure by an average of 3.5 mmHg… …and the results were even more beneficial for folks who consumed more than one type of probiotic.   Folks consuming more than one species of probiotics had an average drop of 5.8 […]

A Few Extra Pounds Helps You Survive Infections

Ebola has been front page news all summer, so you would think this recent medical study would be as well…   …but instead, this study on surviving overwhelming infection remains largely hidden.     Of course, anything that shows there is a WIDE diversity to “healthy weight” — that there is a reality so much wider than the current definitions of under weight, “normal” weight, over weight, mild and severe obesity — is hidden by the media.   That makes sense, as the weight loss industry is a 20 BILLION dollar industry IN THE UNITED STATES ALONE!!! So, of course

Sleep Dramatically Impacts Your Weight

  I’m re-posting this important medical study I blogged about last year, because it came up during an interview that I just gave on BlogTalkRadio two weeks ago… …and I realized that so many folks still don’t know how dramatically lack of sleep can affect weight!     A study published in SLEEP last July found that folks gained a significant amount of weight after only 5 days of poor sleep.   Previous studies have shown a link between poor sleep and weight gain, but this is the first study where participants slept in-house in a sleep facility and the

Could Earthingâ„¢ Prevent Cancer?

You’ve probably heard about the latest medical study looking at the benefits vs. risks of taking aspirin daily to prevent cancer.     Experts now say that the benefits of taking aspirin to prevent some forms of cancer (namely, GI cancers such as colorectal cancer) outweighs the risks to taking this daily pharmaceutical. Published on August 6 in the Annals of Oncology, researchers looked at daily aspirin use and the reduction of GI, lung, prostate and breast cancers. The results were promising, showing a 30% – 35% reduction in the risk of developing colorectal cancer, a 25% reduction in the

Pesticide Exposure and Autism

There is ample proof to show that pesticides are contributing to the steep rise of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and developmental delay (DD.)   The latest study was published a few weeks ago on June 23, 2014 in Environmental Health Perspectives.   This study specifically links prenatal exposure of organophosphates (the most commonly applied agricultural pesticide) and other commonly used pesticides to autism rates in offspring.   Pesticides are neurotoxins that are clearly having a known, predictable and permanent effect on the developing fetal neurology during gestation. This particular study looked at northern CA residents (the state of CA alone

Coffee Decreases Your Risk of Diabetes

Published 3 months ago (April 2014) in Diabetologia, a new study found that drinking more coffee can dramatically decrease your risk of developing type 2 diabetes.   This was a huge longitudinal study, looking at whether increasing or decreasing your coffee or tea intake changed the subsequent rate of type 2 diabetes development. Turns out, the answer is yes!   Although several large studies have previously shown that coffee drinkers have lower rates of diabetes, this study was novel in that it followed large cohorts of people who changed their coffee or tea intake, and then followed their actual diabetes

A New Way For Me To Support You Directly

  I’ve been asked repeatedly by both patients and online class participants to have a way to continue getting unlimited email support from me even after our live or online work has concluded. To this, I say YES!   I love my patients and I love emailing them and being able to respond instantaneously to their health care concerns, changing life situations, and daily journey.   I know that it’s not always possible or practical to schedule in frequent phone consultations and sometimes folks really want a connection and support from me more often than is possible with consultation plans.
