February is American Heart Month. At some point you will likely hear that cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of premature death. Well…not quite. When we add up deaths from medication side effects, medical errors and hospital acquired infections, the practice of medicine is number one. That gives us ample reason to prevent heart disease […]
US consumers spend a fortune each year on heartburn medications ($6 billion in 2012 just on Nexium). Unfortunately, the popular proton pump inhibitor drugs have only been proven safe to use for a few weeks! These drugs are misrepresented as harmless. However, when used for months and years, they can have serious and even lethal side effects. […]
Colonoscopy prep may upset your gut bacterial balance. Although colonoscopy is widely accepted as a smart move to head off colon cancer, a study showed that the complete bowel cleansing can create a long term deficiency of probiotic strains of bacteria. The problem may not persist for a year as is the case with antibiotics, […]
It should get our attention that two out of three people with diabetes die from heart disease or stroke. Other serious complications of diabetes are kidney failure, blindness, nerve damage and amputation of limbs. Maybe you think that is not a problem for you. However, according to the Centers for Disease Control, “Nearly 1 in 4 four adults living with diabetes […]
In the clinical nutrition seminars that I attend we are always happy when the presenter takes a break from some involved chemistry lecture and gives us “clinical pearls”. Those are tidbits we can put to use. I’ve gathered up a few items from the news and from last week’s interview with Bill Sardi. There is […]
😊 Glorious SUCCESS. During the December 15, 2018 radio program, Rosalind called Healthy by Nature. Two years ago, her husband was diagnosed with liver cancer. Based on information she learned from Bill Sardi, she began giving her husband IP6. She called the show to let Bill know that during a follow up appointment, the doctor […]
As promised, listed below is more of the vitamin C science that I recently stumbled upon. Aging and Alzheimer’s. In this journal article authors noted that supplementation with vitamin C appeared to reduce inflammation, signs of aging and unwelcome brain alterations as well as extend lifespan. Bill Sardi got my attention when he told us that there […]
You probably don’t know many of these facts—as a clinical nutritionist, I should, but I didn’t. My interest in the benefits of vitamin C increased recently because of facts that Bill Sardi brought to light about improved health span and longevity related to this humble vitamin. Most people only know that vitamin C can help […]
Sigh. Studies that cast doubt on the value of supplements are automatically assumed true and publicized as such. There seems to be a prevalent mindset that humans are poorly designed and cannot function without medications. Ridiculous. We are by nature healthy…if we give the body everything it needs for optimum function and we don’t gum […]
Prevent a Return of Colon Polyps: A reader had a polyp removed during a colonoscopy and wanted to know how to avoid developing another one. He is concerned because they are considered pre-cancerous. I asked my favorite gastroenterologist, Jeffry Fine, MD. He said to limit animal protein and fat and to take at least 2000 […]
