The toxins are on the move, and I’m starting to feel it.  

Day Number 2.  So far, So Good!  

I just had the pleasure of speaking at a medical conference on bioidentical hormones sponsored by the International Hormone Society at the San Diego Harbor Marriott. My subject was testosterone deficiency and replacement, with an emphasis on testosterone pellet implantation. I was struck by some of the questions the attending doctors asked

From time to time we all get reminders as to why we do or don’t do certain things in our lives. Call them what you will–setbacks, indiscretions, trials etc. Sometimes by losing our way, we again can see why we had been doing things like we were, and that they were actually

We all seem to be addicted to something. Sometimes it is coffee or alcohol or food or tobacco. These substances seem to make us feel better while we use them and sometimes for a while afterwards. They probably act in a way that raises levels of certain neurotransmitters in our brains. It

This is my virgin voyage into the blogosphere. I am learning to overcome anxiety about this activity. Many of my patients at BodylogicMD of Cincinnati suffer from anxiety too. These are the ways that I try to help them. Many women with this problem are deficient in progesterone, and replacing this hormone

Many women we see at BodylogicMD of Sacramento have hot flashes as a chief complaint. A lot of these women are still having periods, although often not in a regular way. These hot flashes are annoying during the day but sometimes debilitating at night. Women often wake up in a puddle of

Among many other things, this requires the adequate supportive nutrition such as vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, and amino acids. Since our intestinal system is the gateway which allows nutrition into our

It’s my belief that inferior doctors treat disease and superior physicians prevent it.  I see patients come to the hospital who are dying from conditions that could have been prevented, from things that could have been treated early and never were. As an emergency room doctor, I developed an interest in anti-aging

Do you start to get depressed in the fall around day light savings time?  Perhaps you are deficient in Vitamin D. Vitamin D can prevent depression, over 17 types of cancers ( such as breast, colon), heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, auto immune diseases like multiple sclerosis, diabetes, osteoporosis, infectious disease,

Ok, I gave you an overview of Detoxification and now it’s time to get started.  However, you need to plan ahead or you might have a tough time getting through it. One of the most important parts of Detox is nutrition.  In this video, I take you with me on my trip to

A new study from Australia recently published in NEJM, http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1105816 shows evidence that despite successful weight loss, biological markers and hormones make the regaining of that weight very likely.
