Big Cholesterol Lie Won ’ t Die
I’ve been warning my patients and readers like you about Big Pharma’s cholesterol scam for more than two decades.
But my message continues to get lost in the unrelenting Big Lie presented by so-called experts in the FDA, AHA, and USDA.
Now, a new study confirms — once again — that there is no link whatsoever between what’s known as “bad” cholesterol and death as a result of heart disease in individuals over 60 years of age.1
In fact, the study found that 92% of people with high cholesterol actually lived longer.
You see, there is no such thing as “good” or “bad” cholesterol. You need both to stay heal...

Sugar Alternatives Can Be Just As Bad For Your Health
My South Florida practice sees a lot of diabetic patients. And I always feel honored that they have chosen to put their health in my care…
But I’m shocked when these patients tell me that their previous doctor or nutritionist recommended that they switch to zero-calorie soft drinks, no-sugar energy bars, and sugar-free yogurts as a “healthy” diabetic alternative.
Please don’t get me wrong…
I’m not suggesting that foods packed with high fructose corn syrup – the main sweetening ingredient used in thousands of products – are any better.
I’ve written to you before about the dangerous effects of cor...

Increase Magnesium To Fight Modern-Day Diseases
It troubles me deeply that conventional doctors don’t pay any attention to your magnesium levels…
Especially these days when new research reveals that this miracle mineral can help you fight our modern-day infections.1,2
I’ve been advising my patients at the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine for decades about magnesium’s critical role in keeping them free of disease.
You see, magnesium is needed for more than 600 biochemical reactions in your body – and that’s just for starters.3
There’s not enough room in this letter to give you a complete list of magnesium’s health benefits, but here are just a fe...

Hidden gem: Cambodian cuisine counts blessings of the Mekong

This Overlooked Nutrient May Be The Key To Brain Power
Aging is inevitable. But have you noticed that some very elderly people still don’t miss a thing?
Some of my patients fall into this category. I’ve worked with many centenarians who remain quick-witted, with keen memories and focus.
You can be one of these people, too — an all-star senior…
Inside all of you, your cells are constantly busy dividing up to two trillion times per day. The new cells replace old, damaged, or dead cells and help you live, grow and thrive.
Human cell lines have built-in mortality. As your cells divide, there’s a limit at which their limit is reached.
There’s an internal mechanism o...

Too Little Sleep Destroys DNA?
I talk to my patients about the danger of not sleeping all the time. Unfortunately, it’s a common problem that affects 75 million Americans.
People who don’t sleep, or sleep poorly, have up to 400% more accidents that those who get a good night’s rest. Not getting enough sleep also increases your risk of developing chronic diseases.
Studies, including a large meta-analysis of 470,000 adults, found that those who slept less than six hours developed a:1,2,3,4,5
48% increase in the incidence of coronary heart disease
30% increased risk of dementia
15% increase in the incidence of stroke
50% cancer risk

The Establishment Failed Pel é And Kristie
I was saddened to hear that soccer legend Pelé and “Cheers” star Kirstie Alley both died of colon cancer late last year.
But the wider part of this tragedy is that this kind of cancer is highly preventable and still poorly understood by most doctors.
Mainstream physicians – as well as the media – will tell you your age causes colon cancer, the genes you inherited from your family, and a high-fat diet.
They couldn’t be more wrong.
Colorectal cancer has nothing to do with age and very little to do with your genes…
Instead, it has everything to do with epigenetics.
This is the important relationship between o...

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.
Zombie cells are too sick and damaged to carry out the...
