The Wellness Revolution
There is a real revolution taking place in the concept of health and healthcare. People are tired of medical protocols that never treat the root causes of aging and disease. They don't just want an absence of critical illness, they want "wellness."
This phenomenon is called The Wellness Revolution
Exerts predict the wellness industry will generate over a trillion dollars in gross business, and many entrepreneurs are positioning themselves to cash in on the baby boomers search for health and antiaging.

What Are Bioidentical Hormones?
You are going to be hearing a lot about bidoidentical hormones in the next few years, and they are going to revolutionize hormone replacement therapy. In fact, they have the potential to change the face of health care in this country, IF they are allowed to! Check out my web page on:
Bioidentical Hormones
This is a very precise and holistically oriented way to rebalance the hormonal system and restore health and vitality to an aging body. Because the decline in your hormonal system underlies almost all chronic disease, this therapy can improve health across the board in aging persons.
They do this by providing very safe and conservative levels of an antiaging hormone such as testosterone to keep your metabolic processes in the anabolic zone. This can restore lost strength, muscle, sexual performance, and general zest for life!

Seasonal Affective Disorder
Seasonal Affective Disorder or SAD is otherwise known as the "winter depression," and the way lack of sunlight affects your moods and overall health.
Human beings are designed to need sunlight in much the same way we need nutrition to keep physically and mentally healthy. Supplementation with vitamin-D and full spectrum lighting can help alleviate the symptoms of winter depression.

Products for Hair Loss
I hesitated to write a web page on this topic because I haven't as yet found the cure for baldness. However upon further reflection, I thought I would share what has worked for me. I still have most of my hair even though it has thinned over the years, so perhaps some of you may find my strategies useful.
My hair started thinning in my late 20's but I have used several simple strategies to treat baldness, with fairly good results. I have found Saw Palmetto for hair loss especially helpful.
Check out my web page: Products For Hair Loss
and see if my strategies work for you as well.

The Benefits of Raw Organic Honey
Honey is one of natures super foods, but finding natural organic honey is the key. The stuff in your local supermarket is pasteurized and thus devoid of the benefits of
honey that you would find in raw unpasteurized honey. You can use the link below to locate the real thing. You will be more than glad you did!
The Honey Locator
Sometimes sweet things ARE good for you. Honey is definately in that catagory. It is alledgedly even safe for diabetics, but it must be "unpasteurized!"

Is There an "Antiaging Gene?"
Are some people genetically programmed for long life, while other get the short end of the stick so to speak? We all heard this before and perhaps wondered if quitting smoking, not drinking, and eating better is really worth it.
The Longevity Gene - Health Fact or Hype
We are told that genetics equals destiny, but is that true? More recent research indicated that our environment and lifestyles have far greater effect on health outcomes than was previously believed.
I explore this issue on my web page. Check it out and let me know what you think!

Sarcopenia - The Problem of Age Related Muscle Loss
Sarcopenia is a little known but serious health condition that affects many people as they age. This is a condition in which you lose lean muscle mass and with it your bone density, mobility, and general health.
Muscle is more than just a pleasing physique at the beach or a means of lifting or carrying things. It is essential to controlling blood sugar and avoiding diabetes, keeping your bones strong, and other metabolic functions which are necessary to your health.
Your degree of lean muscle mass and strength is the single greatest indicator of health. If you were to lose 40% of your lean muscle mass you would die. Find our more about sarcopenia and what you can do to prevent or reverse it at the link below:

Healthy Weight Loss
The weight loss industry takes in millions of dollars selling diet aids, supplements, and exercise devices, all for "losing weight." However focusing on weight loss alone can be counterproductive, and even unhealthy.
Check out my latest page on Healthy Weight Loss and learn why improvement in "body composition," by building muscle and burning fat should be the focus, rather than just weight reduction.
