Five Ways Good Gut Bacteria Stay Good By Devaki Lindsey Berkson

2020-02-20T14:52:55-06:00

How do we tend the garden of our intestinal bugs so they stay healthy and thus so do we? Oxford University researchers have proposed a clever answer. They say that Mother Nature made good bacteria "sticky". This way they stick together deep inside your intestinal tract, and don’t wander across the gut wall or “get lost”. How does that happen? The immune system lives inside the gut “wall”. The gut immune system produces highly adhesive molecules. These are called immunoglobulins (specifically 'IgA'). These are antibodies that coat the bacteria inside your gut and in essence, purposely make the good gut bacteria [...]

Why Aren’t We Living These 4 Necessary Steps To Stay Healthy? By Berkson

2019-09-06T13:51:30-05:00

I have this cool couple that both came to see me as patients. They had lots of health issues. Good news is, that in the last several years, with getting their hormones balanced, their diets improved, and being encouraged and actually joining and using their gym, their lives have been turned around like someone flipped the ON light switch. So I asked, “Why hadn’t you done any of this before?” They looked at me like I asked them why they hadn’t they ever-tried Chinese food. Well, they said they just hadn’t heard about any of it. Folks. I am sorry. But [...]

What drug are Americans clamoring to take, even though there are natural alternatives and hormone balancing to consider first?

2019-04-03T10:11:47-05:00

When I first started working at the Wiseman Family Practice clinic, I was shocked to hear from the doctors and nurse practitioners that about 70% of the patients were on prescribed antidepressants. One out of 10 Americans are on antidepressants. According to CDC statistics, antidepressant drug use rose nearly 400% since 1988. Antidepressants are the most frequently used medication by people aged 18-44. Antidepressants are the 3rd most prescribed meds and they usually cost more than most other medications. Americans heavily lean on antidepressants, but not just when they are clearly depressed. They are often given these scripts when they don’t [...]

Women and aspirin… safe or not?

2019-04-03T10:21:23-05:00

Your husband is on daily aspirin. Should you be? Which women can safely use aspirin to protect against cardiovascular disease? Women and aspirin… safe or not? Recent meta-analyses (analysis of large groups of clinical trials and clinical guidelines) were performed to try to figure out which women would be helped by taking daily aspirin to prevent heart attacks and strokes, and which women might be more harmed. The data show there are 3 groups of women who are excellent candidates for daily aspirin: Women of any age with established cardiovascular disease. Women 65 years or older with or without a history [...]

Add More Years To Your Life With 10-Easy New Habits

2019-04-01T19:35:24-05:00

Moving keeps you living younger longer. I write books so this is challenging for me, too. I can’t think at my stand-up workstations like I can sitting on my bootie. But moving keeps you going; actually, new research proves it keeps you living longer and dying less prematurely. Minutes of moving, adds on years! Most people, as they age, move less. Today, even younger men and women in their 20’s and 30’s, can be velcroed to their chairs, computers and work stations. New amazing study! 3,000 people (50 to 79-years old) had activity trackers put on them (called “accelerometers” – sounds Star [...]

Anyone Can Be Bad – be careful out there

2020-02-20T14:55:20-06:00

Ophthalmologist David Ming Pon, MD, in Leesburg, Florida, was found guilty of cheating Medicare and patients, by pretending to perform eye surgeries on people who actually never had the disease and didn't need the procedures. He lied to more than 500 Medicare patients that they had age-related wet macular degeneration. He then billed the government for laser photocoagulation that was never performed. He used laser but purposely set the energy at such a low level that no leaky blood vessels were ever sealed and no "real" treatments were performed. The scam netted Pon more than $7 million (according to the Department [...]
