There’s something about our world that frowns upon people for being beginners.
Job boards are riddled with entry-level positions asking for 4+ years of experience. No one wants the newbie on their sports team because they suck and won’t help them win. No guy in his right mind would want a virg…wait, that’s probably a bad example...
Anyways, beginners often get a bad rap, and this deters many people fr...

How much omega-6 fatty acids do you really need?
Here’s a brief excerpt from my new book, Undoctored: Why Health Care Has Failed You and How You Can Become Smarter Than Your Doctor, available as pre-order and scheduled for release May 9, 2017:
From Undoctored:
You don’t want omega-6 overload, but you also don’t want omega-6 deficiency. The ideal omega-6:omega-3 index is 2:1 or less. How do you achieve the right balance? It is much more simple than you might think.
To ensure that you are consuming the correct amount of omega-6 vs. omega-3, choose fats such as lard and tallow (provided they are not hydrogenated, if store-bought), coconut oil, palm o...

ADHD and Adults: How to Create a Routine When You Don ’t Have a 9 to 5
Maybe you’re an entrepreneur. Maybe you’re a real estate agent or writer. Maybe you’re an artist or a photographer. Maybe you’re a graphic or web designer. Maybe you’re a coach or consultant. Maybe you’re an attorney with your own practice.
Whatever your profession, you aren’t tied to a desk and you don’t have specific work hours — like 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. And you also have ADHD, which makes not having a built-in structure challenging.
For example, people with ADHD tend to hyper-focus on things they find interesting, while other tasks fall through the cracks — such as invoicing and filing taxes, sa...

Exercise Motivation, The Weird Way

If you don't need to twist your brain into pretzel-like configurations in order to motivate yourself to exercise: you are free to resume websurfing. Enjoy a few more videos of rhinos cuddling with meekrats, or watch with terrified fascination as the next Trumpian plans for the apocalypse are announced.

My Incredible Results From The Whole30
I have long believed that self development isn’t just about changing the way we think.
Yes, that’s crucially important because if we think the same way, then for the most part nothing changes other than through blind luck.
It’s why I talk to clients about meditation and ask them about exercise and diet/nutrition.
Not that I would offer advice on the latter two subjects other than very, very generally, such as, ‘maybe it’s better to work out sometimes and not eat crap all the time?’
Sometime around 2008 I started getting interested in the Primal Solution and Paleo lifestyle.
In the subsequent time so muc...

What to Expect During Your Second Trimester
Congratulations you are at the beginning of your second trimester!
“At the beginning of the second trimester, babies are about 3 1/2 inches long and weigh about 1 1/2 ounces. Tiny, unique fingerprints are now in place, and the heart pumps 25 quarts of blood a day. You’re likely to feel kicks and flutters soon if you haven’t already.”
Week 14
This week you baby is more fluid in his/her movements as they reposition their arms. Your baby’s intestines are producing meconium, the waste that will make up your baby’s first bowel movement after birth.
Your baby is now the size of a peach!
Week 15
This week, your baby...

7 Simple Smoothies to Boost Your Mood
I have mentioned in some of my posts that drinking a green smoothie is one of my more effective sanity tools. For fear of sounding like an infomercial, I must say that I realize there is no simple cure for depression. But I do think chugging down two or three of these leafy-green concoctions a day has significantly impacted my health and begun the healing process for some of my conditions.
The Benefits of Green Smoothies
Why green smoothies?
“Greens are the primary found group that matches human nutritional needs most completely,” explains Victoria Boutenko in her book Green for Life. They are nutrition powerhouses, pa...

What ’ s in the sauce?
Living the Wheat Belly Lifestyle may take a bit of effort, but the results are so worth it. You must think before you order your meals. Hidden sources of grains and corn by-products are lurking in some unlikely places.
You may have thought that by skipping the bread/sandwich and choosing the soup-n-salad would ensure that your meal was safe. Think again…Many commercial “cream” sauces and soups get their creamy texture from starch, not real cream. And that starch often comes from wheat flour or corn starch. In fact, most commercial soup manufacturers literally use countless tons of wheat every year to produce ...

There ’s no sugar-coating it: All calories are not created equal
Counting calories doesn’t work. Burning more calories each day than you consume may have been the diet advice from the past, but that has since been debunked. So you no longer have to work out until you’ve “burned off” that apple cider donut you had with lunch. You just have to make sure you’re eating whole foods and avoiding processed carbohydrates — like crackers, cookies, or white bread.
A recent review in JAMA Internal Medicine further casts a light on the shaky history of nutritional science. Before the 1980s, regulations did not require researchers and physicians to declare conflicts of interest before pu...

NMN, next year ’ s big food supplement
Remember when your parents told you to eat your greens…well…there are plenty of benefits, but one of them might bear fruit if you would like to long long and prosper. Scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St Louis have demonstrated increased longevity in mice fed a compound known as NMN, nicotinamide mononucleotide. This substance is found naturally in broccoli, cabbage, cucumber, avocado and other foods.
They suggest that its mode of action may be to compensate for a loss of energy production, and so reduce typical signs of aging such as gradual weight gain, loss of insulin sensitivity and ...

Are you using the right oils?
Let me begin by stating this simple fact:
We all need fats and oils in our diet. – Tweet this!
We should not be trying to cut back or eliminate the fats or oils. Contrary to the blundering health advice of the last half-century, fats and oils do not make you fat; they help you lose weight. Fats and oils do not trigger insulin, the hormone of weight gain, nor do they increase the risk for cardiovascular disease. They generate satiety, leaving you feeling full and satisfied.
It is important that you choose your oils wisely.
Oils that were previously thought to be unhealthy, such as coconut oil and palm oil, due to their s...
