Do you suffer from chronic joint pain or arthritis?
I know many of my clients do.
In fact, when I last took a survey of my readers, I was astounded that 48.5% experienced joint and/or muscle pain.
Needless to say, hypothyroidism plays a pivotal role in both.
Yet, successful treatment of joint pain requires a two-step approach.
The first step […]
Who would think that health foods could be so dangerous?
It’s the unfortunate truth… and I’ve been watching it get worse year after year.
I would even go as far to say this…
You would likely be better off avoiding all health food claims you find in magazines, on TV, or spread all over the internet.
There’s only one […]
Have you ever made a big mistake?
Of course… everyone has.
Unlike most others, I encourage people to make mistakes.

The source of that protein matters and is important too.
When it comes to protein powders, there are literally dozens of different types […]

Yes, you can use desserts as part of a very healthy thyroid diet.
In fact, with my clients, I highly encourage it.
The real problem is that desserts and sweets are very misunderstood today.
Foods like chocolate and fruit can be very therapeutic and help boost thyroid function […]
Imagine this for a minute…
You have this nagging cough that just won’t go away.
So, you make an appointment with your doctor.
After listening to your lungs, your doctor removes his stethoscope, looks you in the eyes, and says… “There’s a 50% chance it will clear on its own and a 50% chance it’s lung cancer.”

It all started with Dr. Weston A. Price…
He was like a true, living and breathing, Indiana Jones.
Dr. Price traveled the world studying various cultures, searching for connections between nutrition and health.
