by Julie Callicutt What DOES gluten free mean?The term, gluten free is thrown around quite a bit. What it doesn’t mean is that a food or product is completely free of all gluten. It is almost free of all gluten.

Don’t have Celiac? Think... 7/31/2018 7:00:00 AM
by Andrea Goeglein Has finding lasting love made you feel insane? Have you found yourself attracting the same type of mate and suffering through the same painful prolonged breakups? Have you vowed never – and I mean never – to date or fall in love again? Supposedly, one far wiser than I am, Mr. Albert Einstein himself, said, “Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” I don’tknow... 7/26/2018 7:00:00 AM
by Lisa Romano Those of us who have been marked by the scars of emotional and physical abuse in childhood or as adults know how deep the trauma can penetrate. Our bodies heal, we grow and we cast off many of the superficial appearances that marked us as victims, but the emotional aftershocks remain long afterwards.Since the early days of psychiatry, we’ve known that abuse can put sufferers at risk of depression,... 7/26/2018 7:00:00 AM
by Dr. Bonnie Eaker Weil Typically, in a long-distance relationship, 80% of women are the pursuer and 80% of men are the distancer. While they are in love, they see each other infrequently. This is fine for the distancer, but not so for the pursuer. In long distance relationships, distancers promise the moon, but deliver little. This is why the couple rarely sees each other and the phone, email, and text become a large part... 7/26/2018 7:00:00 AM
by Dr. Janet Sasson Edgette We have all seen teens who are so disrespectful to their parents it makes our jaws drop. Maybe you’ve been one of those parents.Maybe your teenager has learned that he can verbally harass or physically intimidate you into relinquishing the car keys, abandoning his curfew, or looking the other way when his friends sneak alcohol into the house.

by Margaret Rutherford Dating is scary enough on its own. But do you fear that your choice on the latest dating site might not be the right one - that there might be someone else who is funnier, more handsome, sexier... whatever?You're afraid of missing out. FOMO as some like to call it. It's intense anxiety that you're missing the action, your life isn't as great as someone else's, or you're not in-the-know about what's... 7/25/2018 7:00:00 AM
by Harry Harrison What do parents fight about more than sex or money? Ask any parent: It's how to raise their children. The dilemma is that while both parents love their children, while they may even have agreed beforehand how to raise their children, while they may have read every parenting book ever published since 1950, nobody really knows what kind of parent they're going to be until they are actually confronted... 7/24/2018 7:00:00 AM
by Dr. Zeccardi DC, FIAMA Lower Back PainWalking upright on two feet has advantages, but it also puts intense pressure on the spine, as well as on other muscles and bones. Add to this improper sitting, lifting, or reaching—and the normal wear and tear of working and playing—and you have the perfect recipe for back pain. That’s why back pain is the 2nd most common reason for visits to the doctor’s office, outnumbered only by... 7/24/2018 7:00:00 AM
by Dr Matthew McQuaid I recently watched a documentary on the Discovery Channel about the landing of US Airways flight 1549 on the Hudson River. There is also a movie about this miracle landing called, Sully. The film focuses on the main hero, Captain Chesley Sullenberger. The Discovery Channel documentary that I watched was fascinating because there were many different aspects of the event that you could interpret as a... 7/24/2018 7:00:00 AM
by Jessica Gammell-Bennett I worked with a client whose son suddenly began displaying aggressive tendencies towards her and his younger siblings. She told me that they were going to hold her son back a year from kindergarten because when it comes time to play football in middle school, there’s a big difference in size between the kids who entered kindergarten at 5 and those who entered at 6. He had just started playing, so I... 6/25/2018 7:00:00 AM
