Gun liability insurance makes enormous sense. If you get a trampoline in your yard, or a pool, insurance companies will raise your rates. These things have injury rates much lower than guns.
Doctors die by suicide at an alarmingly high rate. It’s a painful reality that is far too often ignored––or worse, intentionally concealed.
Treating patients in the midst of a global pandemic has become yet another factor contributing to physician distress and suicide in recent months. The stories of medical professionals lost to suicide amid the Covid-19 outbreak are shining new light on some long-standing and dangerous shortcomings in our systems of medical education and practice.
Lyme disease is often thought of as a tick bite and a bullseye rash, followed by a course of antibiotics. The reality is much more complicated. First, Lyme disease is a tick-borne illness, the primary bacterial pathogen being the spirochete, Borrelia burgdorferi. But because it is transmitted by ticks, there are often other pathogens present […]
Pain and chronic inflammation underlie many conditions that holistic practitioners encounter every day — from joint degeneration and neuropathy to migraine, menstrual disorders, and post-exercise recovery. Yet the dominant pharmaceutical toolkit remains constrained by adverse effects, dependency risk, and an inability to address the underlying biology of neuroinflammation. This webinar invites you to explore palmitoylethanolamide […]
If you take dietary supplements for your own health, if you recommend them to your patients, if they are an important part of your clinical protocols, then your life has been touched by the work of Loren D. Israelsen, JD. For more than four decades, Israelsen has been a key player in the development and […]
Daily supplementation with 360 μg of menaquinone-7, a form of vitamin K2, slowed the progression of coronary artery calcification in a cohort of individuals with confirmed atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. That’s the upshot of a new two-year clinical trial just published in JAMA Cardiology by researchers based at the Maastricht University Medical Center, Netherlands. All 180 […]
Certain probiotic bacteria, namely Lactiplantibacillus plantarum LP14, Lactobacillus crispatus LCRO4, and Lactobacillus acidophilus LA12, are able in varying degrees, to detoxify cadmium, lead, and other toxic metals. These microbial allies may also be able to mitigate intestinal epithelial damage caused by heavy metal exposures. Those are the key signals from a new paper published in […]
An emerging technology seeks to help revolutionize the world of cancer diagnosis: Multi-cancer early detection (MCED) tests aim to spot signals for different types of cancer from a single blood draw or other body fluid sample. Also known as a specific type of liquid biopsy, MCED tests look for abnormalities that may indicate cancer, like […]
The search for longevity has moved from myth to molecular science. In this eye-opening presentation, we explore groundbreaking research revealing how telomerase activity and epigenetic modifications may hold the keys to slowing—and even reversing—the aging process. Once thought to function solely by extending telomeres, telomerase is now recognized for its non-canonical roles in gene expression, […]
Daily supplementation with an Akkermansia muciniphila probiotic led to marked improvement in fasting blood glucose, post-prandial glucose, and hemoglobin A1c after 60 days. Those are the upshots of a new placebo-controlled study involving 60 prediabetic individuals. The findings strengthen the case for clinical use of Akkermansia in the management of people at high risk for […]

Food noise—the relentless, intrusive, uncontrollable mental rumination about food—is a common experience reported by people struggling to manage their weight. The surge in use of GLP-1 inhibiting drugs has spotlighted this phenomenon because many patients report that GLP-1 treatments quell the intensity of food-related thoughts. But until recently, clinicians and researchers have been at a […]
