Our favorite “Health Scout”, Bobbi Vitality, is back with a way to improve the way we feel, simplify our lives and save money all at the same time. (And he brings a killer deal.) My second guest, Brian Umbach, of Elite Vitality and Performance, informs us about an exciting FDA-approved technology, that increases blood flow to cells. I’m finding amazing reports of how this improvement in micro-circulation supports cells and optimal organ function. It has even solved some serious health issues such as pain, bone healing and stroke recovery. (It is being tested by NASA.)

PART 2—Supplements—the good, the not-so-hot, and the potentially ugly

Last week I started a discussion of 15 supplements that Consumer Reports tells us to avoid. This week I finish the list and add what I think is some interesting background. I also relate a story a nurse listener sent me about a patient who needs a liver transplant because of a detox product she took. Click here to read this week’s blog.


Last Week Follow-up


LISTEN to that show in the archives.

I’m excited to introduce listeners to my new favorite “go-to foods” created by Guiltless Superfoods founders—grain-free personal chef Lindsey Crouch and personal trainer Daniel Crouch. (Our favorite health scout, Bobbi Vitality discovered them for me.) Now that I have convenient foods brimming with health benefits which I enjoy, I no longer grab junk out of desperation. I’m not hungry until at least the next meal; cravings are gone; and talk about improved regularity! Who would have thought that gluten-free, grain-free & low-carb pizza, bread, wraps, muffins and cookies could be good for us? Order online and for a limited time give the code HBN to receive a free box of grain free dark chocolate cookies. It is easier to know the selection on their website, but you can also call 512-650-1004. We also check in with John Willard of Willard Water about a different take on staying hydrated and about minerals in a humic form.

MY BOOKS:
