Don ’ t Get Dragged Down By “ Zombie Cells ”
Did you watch any of the zombie shows that were all over the airways a few years back?
I confess my sons and I really got into the program The Walking Dead. Watching the cast of characters try to survive in a world overrun by dead zombies was a fun way to spend some time together and wrap up a Sunday night.
Typically, when I think of the word “zombie,” I’m thinking of science fact, not fiction…
Zombie cells are known scientifically as senescent cells. These are dysfunctional cells that have stopped dividing and are nearing the end of their natural lives.

New, Natural ED Treatment
There is a new natural therapy for erectile dysfunction.
That comes as a big surprise to most patients who suffer from ED — because they’ve been told again and again their only solution is a Big Pharma booster like Viagra, or that they should just accept their condition as a part of aging.
Common ED Beliefs
ED has become so common, it’s the accepted norm in men of “a certain age.” It now affects 30 million men in America.
But it shouldn’t. Age is not the issue. It’s the most natural thing in the world to have sex well into your 70s and 80s.
ED Causes
Your doctor has probably told that as you ...

3 of My Favorite Natural Sex Boosters
Let’s talk about the “S” word. New research shows that sex can help keep your mind sharp as tack as you grow older — and I’m not surprised.
Sex can be a great tool for protecting or improving your health
Researchers in the U.K. recently tested more than 6,800 people between the ages of 50 and 89. Those with active sex lives scored an amazing 23% higher on cognitive word tests than those with inactive sex lives.1

Venus and Mars Hormones
Men are from Mars. Women are from Venus.
This one book from best-selling author John Gray built a publishing empire.
Even if you’ve never read it, I’m sure you’ve heard of it.
Released in 1993, this book went on to sell more than 50 million copies and is considered the “highest ranked work of non-fiction of the 1990s.”
When I read the book years ago, I remember the clarity it brought to relationships, and how we can make them stronger and more meaningful.
Today, John Gray has added an anti-aging component to his books and lectures, and that’s why I’m writing to you today.
Just last week, John Gray was a featu...

Nutrients For Your Manhood
I treat adults of all ages at my wellness clinic and, at some point during our consultations, we usually talk about the ‘S’ word.
The advice in today’s letter is for men – but if you’re a woman, just imagine you’re listening in so you can share it with the man in your life.

Three to four times a week would be ideal.
Age should not be an issue. It’s the most natural thing in the world to have sex well into your 70s and 80s.1
In fact, sex has s...
