What Those Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free Labels on Your Food Really Mean
by Jenn Ryan
About Me View My Posts
It’s easy to take things at face value. We trust the FDA to put labels on our food that actually mean the things they say. Unfortunately, the FDA has majorly fallen short of this integrity we give them. Many of you already know that organic doesn’t mean "no pesticides;" it means no synthetic pesticides were used. Free-range doesn’t mean an open pasture; it means the animal has access to a small door... 2/26/2016 8:00:00 AM

by Robyn Benincasa
About Me View My Posts
My teammates and I have learned about building World Class Teams the hard way. By competing in and winning the world's toughest ultra-endurance Adventure Races. From the leech-infested jungles of Borneo to the towering peaks of Tibet and Ecuador, to the frigid seas and glaciers of Patagonia and the searing desert of Namibia, we have run, paddled, mountain biked, climbed, whitewater rafted, spelunked,... 2/23/2016 8:00:00 AM

Approaching & Avoiding: Relationship Tips
by David Alter
About Me View My Posts
Building and maintaining long-term loving relationships is one of the most challenging activities in which people engage. Relationships are exceedingly complex affairs. The bonds that sustain relationships – for better or worse – are built from what we say using our spoken words, what we communicate with the non-verbal parts of language (i.e., our voice tone and speech pace, body posture, facial expressions,... 2/20/2016 10:00:00 PM

You take care of your children, you take care of your spouse, your take care of your home. But are you taking care of yourself? Too often women put themselves last when it comes to their health, and perhaps that is why heart disease has surpassed cancer as the number one killer for women. Simple diet and lifestyle changes could prevent almost all cardiovascular disease. Do yourself and your loved ones... 2/20/2016 8:00:00 AM

The Urge To Purge: Releasing Emotional Toxins
by Lisa Moran
About Me View My Posts
I can always recognize when negativity is weighing on my body, mind and spirit as I feel extremely heavy in all areas. My mind becomes foggy. My disposition becomes depressed and/or agitated, and my spirit feels imbalanced and I become lazy and very sluggish. My view of things becomes quite pessimistic and, although I know the methods in which to purge these toxins, it sometimes takes me a few spilled... 2/17/2016 8:00:00 AM

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, but it’s not the only thing in February directly related to the heart. February is also National Heart Month. Many people don’t realize the severity of heart health in America, and that is a tragic error. Roughly 610,000 Americans die each year from heart disease. That number is equal to one in four deaths. Heart disease is hands down the leading killer of... 2/8/2016 8:00:00 AM

To Be Healthy, Make A Move
by Joel Fuhrman, M.D.
About Me View My Posts
Today it is common to have a job that involves sitting at a desk for eight hours a day. And usually we would feel good if we hit the gym a few times a week, or managed to squeeze in a hike on a weekend. However, one major lesson that has come out of research on sedentary behavior is that exercising before or after work—although great to do – does not undo the harm done by sitting all day. Long periods... 2/4/2016 8:00:00 AM

What Is Leaky Gut? (And Why You Should Know)
by Jenn Ryan
About Me View My Posts
Leaky gut is another name for intestinal permeability. What this means is that places in the gut that determine what gets to go into your small intestine are not working as they should. This means that substances that you react to, or are toxic to your body, end up where they shouldn’t—in your bloodstream. Imagine your gut’s lining is Gandalf in The Fellowship of the Ring. He stands at that bridge... 2/1/2016 8:00:00 AM

Can You Avoid Getting Cancer?
by Fred Fletcher
About Me View My Posts
Roughly six years ago I started writing a book on the most promising treatments for cancer. The project was born out of a deep personal desire to give people who had been diagnosed with cancer (or had a relative or friend in such situation or who were simply afraid of getting the disease) palpable hope that was based on hard, sink-your-teeth-into science.That is not to say that I don't believe in the... 1/30/2016 8:00:00 AM
