    24-23 Sunshine vs Sunscreen - Which Is More Harmful?

    24-23 Sunshine vs Sunscreen - Which Is More Harmful?

    Episode 24:23 Sunshine vs Sunscreen - Which Is More Harmful?
    During this time of the year, most medical doctors will tell you to put on sunscreen whenever you go outside.
    Even better (or worse)... they’ll tell you to do your best to avoid the sun.
    Why?
    Because, in their opinion, sun exposure can cause skin cancer.
    But is that true?
    Can sun exposure cause skin cancer?
    It might.
    However, there is more to the story.
    More to learn about sun exposure… and sunscreen.
    You see, using sunscreen and avoiding the sun can be very harmful to your health.
    More harmful than sun exposure?
    THAT’S a great question!
    It’s also one I explore on this week’s episode.
    Give this a good listen and then share it with a friend.
    Thanks!

    24-22 The Reason Why You Should Change Your Eating And Sleeping Habits

    24-22 The Reason Why You Should Change Your Eating And Sleeping Habits

    Episode 24:22 The Reason Why You Should Change Your Eating And Sleeping Habits
    As you already know, summer is much different than winter.
    Specifically, the days are longer.
    In fact, here in Alabama we are currently getting four more hours of sunlight each day than we will six months from now.
    In northern states like New York the difference is even more significant… currently 6 more hours of sunlight than in six months!
    These longer days of summer should give rise to different health habits.
    Habits that take advantage of the longer days.
    For example, what you eat and how long you sleep should be different in the summer than in the winter.
    On this week’s episode I talk about how to adjust your eating and sleeping habits this summer in a way that will optimize your health.
    I also explain how living “with” nature, no matter the season, is always a smart move.
    Give this episode a good listen and, as always, share it with a friend.
    Thanks!

    24-20 How To Look Great At The Beach

    Episode 24:20 How To Look Great At The Beach
    Everyone wants to look great at the beach.
    There’s nothing wrong with that.
    The problem is that most people DON’T look good at the beach.
    Or, stated another way, most people don’t like how they look in a pair of shorts or a bathing suit.
    They want to look better.
    They want a “beach body.”
    They just don’t know HOW to get one.
    Don’t know what they need to do to look and feel better.
    On this episode I provide the answer.
    Specifically, I share three strategies… two of which you already know… that anyone can employ to improve their looks.
    Give this episode a good listen as it will help you improve how you look, how you feel, and how you perform.
    In addition, please share this episode with a friend. 
    Thanks!

    24-19 Medical Doctor vs Holistic Doctor? The 3 Differences You Really Need To Know

    24-19 Medical Doctor vs Holistic Doctor? The 3 Differences You Really Need To Know

    Episode 24:19 Medical Doctor vs Holistic Doctor? The 3 Differences You Really Need To Know
    We live in a country where our health care system is dominated by the medical model. 
    That’s not good.
    Why?
    Because this reliance on the medical model has led to:
    1) Sky rocketing health care costs.
    2) Ever increasing levels of chronic disease.
    3) Epidemic rates of childhood illnesses.
    4) Declining life expectancy. 
    Something has to change.
    Interestingly, that change is NOT “a different approach.”
    It’s “an ADDITIONAL approach.”
    That is, we need more than just one approach to health care.
    More than just a reliance on drugs and surgery.
    We need access to a Holistic approach.
    A natural approach that can be offered to people along side a traditional medical approach.
    On this episode I explain the differences between a medical approach and a holistic approach including which health conditions respond best for each.
    Be sure to give this episode a good listen as you won’t hear this important information anywhere else.
    And, as always, please share this episode with a friend. 
    Thanks!

    24-18 Consider Taking These Supplements For Strains, Sprains, Tears, and Broken Bones

    Episode 24:18 Consider Taking These Supplements For Strains, Sprains, Tears, and Broken Bones
    People often ask me if nutritional supplements can help their body heal.
    My answer is always a resounding “Yes.”
    This is especially true when the healing involves muscles, bones, ligaments or tendons.
    Or, stated another way, when a person is recovering from a strain, sprain, pull, tear, or broken bone.
    On this episode I share with you several nutritional supplements to consider when dealing with any of these issues.
    Supplements I have been using with patients, with great success, for over 35 years.
    Give this episode a good listen and, as always, share it with a friend.
    Thanks!
