I just read an interesting article that talks about when a patient should seek the opinion of another doctor. According to the piece, Dr. Richard Stein, director of preventive cardiology at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York, says there are certain situations where a second opinion is the best course. “Anytime you’re considering a [...]
I think the idea of a raw food diet is pretty interesting. I don’t know if I could commit to it wholeheartedly though. But I am very impressed by the concept that in order to have a successful healthy diet, you don’t take away foods, you just add to your diet. They say that [...]
Normally, I use Bankrate.com as a resource for information on finances. I was surprised to find out that they have an article detailing some secrets of the diet and weight loss business. It’s a detailed two page article, so I won’t give a comprehensive review here. I’ll just point out the part that really opened [...]
Again, this has nothing to do with health, or fitness, it just made me laugh my head off. I can’t believe that there are people out there as dumb as this guy. I wonder what ever happened to him? I wonder if his family ever mentions this video to him? I don’t know what I [...]
I found this story about eating healthy foods at the site of one of my local news stations, KPHO.

On the good side, there’s some interesting information, including the theory that enzymes may play an important role in defeating [...]
I haven’t had an episode of reflux for a long time, but it came back full force today. Partially because I ate right before lying down for a nap, but I feel its also because I haven’t taken any acidophilus caps for a long time.
My acid reflux/GERD used to be rather severe, but I thought [...]
You’re going to have burritos for dinner, lol. Well, they’re not going to be big burritos, and its a late dinner because my son’s coming home later than usual. Still and all, I’m trying to think of a way to make them healthier than they usually are. I guess I could empty them out, discard [...]
First of all, I have to apologize if this recipe isn’t very good. For some reason, my speakers aren’t playing sound very well today, probably a setting I clicked or didn’t click, or should’ve clicked.
Anyway, the comments on the video seem favorable, at least no one is complaining, lol. If you want to eat healthy [...]
