Mood, Food and Behavior
With 40% of Americans clinically depressed and another 40% having subclinical depressive miasma, how much is the result of crummy nutrition? Is it possible that the majority of it is because 80% of the food eaten is just plain junk? I believe it is because of the relationship between mood, food and behavior. Forty-five percent […]
The Good Old Days
Oh, for the good old days, when smoking was the number one cause of premature death and the overweight were just 33%. Even then at its peak, only about 45% of adults smoked. Now overweight and obese individuals represent the #1 cause of premature death! Assuming at least half the smokers are also overweight or […]

Several inquiries this week have made it important to dispel concerns about why we are downsizing the store. The May Big Bang shutdown made me aware of the problems of size.

Youthful Aging
There are so many factors that influence health and aging that it is really a genie in the bottle guess as to which ultimately determines how long and how well you live. However, there are numerous scientific studies that show significant influences: Genetics. Scores of genetic predispositions are possible. Perhaps the good news is that […]
Move It or Lose It
Other than eating and breathing nothing is as important as exercise! Even mentally-controlled rhythmic breathing is minor physical activity and can relieve symptoms of anxiety, depression and pain! In an article published in May 2013, the increasingly common use of injections for back pain is reported to be useless in the long run! (JAMA. 2013 […]
Who Runs the World?
Who Runs the World? C. Norman Shealy, M.D., Ph.D. Thirty years ago I read NONE DARE CALL IT CONSPIRACY and had several dreams that it was indeed true.
