Life Is Like a Box of Chocolates

If you ate chocolate on Valentine’s Day, I have some news for you. You don’t have to feel guilty.

In fact, I have evidence that you may have cut your risk from dying of a stroke nearly in half.

Two studies give us great news about chocolate.

The first study found that people who ate one serving of chocolate per week were 22% less likely to have a stroke.1

The second study found that people who ate 50 grams of chocolate once a week were 46% less likely to die following a stroke than those who didn’t eat chocolate.2

About 80% of strokes occur when there isn’t enough blood getting to the brain.3 Your brain is starved of oxygen and nutrients and begins to die immediately…

Swine Flu Is Still a Danger

The swine flu is lingering.

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says 50 million Americans have been infected so far.

My office is still getting a lot of mail and phone calls about it. And when it comes to you and my patients, I do have concerns.

The swine flu isn’t the huge pandemic the fear-mongers were predicting. But it’s having widespread effects… especially on the elderly and those who have a low immune threshold.

And here’s the real problem: If you’ve been loading up on a lot of refined foods… if you aren’t getting enough antioxidants… if you’re stressed out and not getting enough sleep… if you suffer from recurrent inflammation…

Lance Armstrong Takes This for Energy

World-class cyclist Lance Armstrong uses a powerful nutrient to safely and naturally boost his athletic performance.

It’s so reliable; Olympians and serious exercisers are flocking to it for help during strenuous workouts.1

I’m talking about quercetin, a powerful antioxidant/anti-inflammatory bioflavonoid that also boosts the immune system and increases mitochondria (the powerhouse of the cell) in your muscles and brain.

People with this Factor Live Past 100

Cutting-edge research is revealing the power of a “master antioxidant” – a tripeptide molecule called glutathione (GSH).

People with the highest levels of GSH are the ones who routinely live past 100. Plus, it may prevent a host of chronic diseases like arthritis, high blood pressure, heart disease, cancer and diabetes – just to name a few…

Look What’s Brewing in Your DNA

By lengthening your telomeres, you can extend your life. And that means for the first time, you can actually stop – even reverse – the aging process in your body.

Here’s the thing: Your telomeres are extremely vulnerable to oxidative stress…and that’s exactly what antioxidants protect you against. This helps keep your telomeres long. And that, in turn, will help you live a longer and healthier life.

Space-Age Discovery Adds 10 Years to Your Life

You know stress hurts. You worry, you feel anxious… you lose sleep. That’s old news. But now, through the discovery of telomeres, we can actually measure the effects of stress. And the wear and tear is more distressing than we even imagined.

Researchers at the University of California discovered that stress speeds up aging.1 This makes your cells die before their time – and produces all the terrible effects we think of as aging.

Vitamin Blood Levels Taught Me This…

Dear Reader,
Did you know that every vitamin you take can be measured in your blood?
When a patient comes to my Wellness Center for the first time, I always run some routine blood work. Your doctor probably does, too. One of the first things I test for are blood levels for all vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and [...]
