Are Lifestyle Changes Impossible?

Posted on by Posted in Blog, Fitness & Exercise, Healthy Lifestyle, Knowledge Base, L — 6 Comments ↓

Many years ago, I became exhausted dealing with a friend who ignored my advice on living a healthy lifestyle. His attitude toward exercise was similar to Oscar Wilde’s “I often take exercise. Why only yesterday I had breakfast in bed.” His attitude toward food, especially restaurant food, seemed too often that he didn’t care if the quality was good as long as the portions were Read More

Diet Drug Controversies

Posted on by Posted in Blog, D, Healthy Lifestyle, Knowledge Base, Nutrition, Nutritional Supplements, Vitamins, & Herbal Remedies, Weight Issues — 1 Comment ↓

The FDA recently approved two new weight-loss drugs and literally within hours of the drugs being officially released a pharmaceutical rep for one of the companies left his card with me and a patient called wanting a prescription. In the weeks that followed, full-page ads for the drugs began appearing in every medical journal I read regularly and I noticed a slight, but measurable, increase Read More

The HCG Diet Actually Works

Posted on by Posted in Blog, D, H, Knowledge Base, Weight Issues — 19 Comments ↓

  • Protecting Yourself From Overdiagnosis

    Bill, a healthy looking guy in his mid-40s, came to WholeHealth Chicago because he wanted to get off Lipitor, the widely prescribed cholesterol-lowering drug. Bill had virtually no risks for heart disease and all four of his grandparents were still alive and quite independent, but a few years ago his cholesterol was on the high side and his doctor insisted on the Lipitor.

  • Male Menopause: Is It Real?

    Short answer: Yes, but don’t hope for any quick fixes—that’s pharmaceutical industry-think. Another way to view male menopause: Sure, a ball will bounce, just not as high over time. I get asked about male menopause all the time, almost always by women (who, admittedly, represent the majority of my patients) and only rarely by my male patients who, for the most part, don’t seem to Read More
