I’ve written about peptides in a previous Health Tip; the most famous peptides on the planet being the two GLP-1 meds, semaglutide and tirzepatide. GLP, by the way, stands for “Glucagon-Like-Peptide”, glucagon being a hormone produced by your pancreas that raises your blood sugar. GLP-1 does the opposite, lowering your blood sugar, triggering weight loss. […]

We are thrilled to bring our services to the south side!
We are a healthcare practice that strives to integrate the best of conventional and complementary medicine in a caring and healing environment. We believe that both health and disease are functions of physical, emotional, nutritional, and spiritual influences. Many health issues are rooted in a patient’s personal biography – the story of your life – and are most effectively treated by addressing root causes rather than symptoms alone.

Health Tips
Slowing the rate at which you age isn’t just for old people trying to stay on the topside of the sod… If you’re under 40, supplements can provide plenty of coverage and set a perfectly reasonable goal of reaching your upper 90s or early 100s. Do understand that living a long life isn’t much use if […]
This then explained my tickly cough and progressively worsening sore throat. My BinaxNOW Home Test was “positive”, so I phoned in Paxlovid for myself.
Scientists who study the birth of the Universe believe there were only three elements at the very start: Hydrogen, Helium, and Lithium. All three are “everywhere”. Lithium, which means ‘from stone’, is really not a ‘stone’, but rather a very light metal, so light that in pure form, it can float. If you were inclined […]
I wasn’t sure I really wanted to read “Murderland”, a newly published book about the many serial killers from the Pacific Northwest. Throughout the 20th century, places like Tacoma and Seattle sounded seriously spooky. Writers dubbed them “Poisonvilles”, smelters crossed skylines belching toxic lead, arsenic, cadmium unchecked into the air, water, and soil of the […]
If you’ve been prescribed estrogen vaginal inserts for vaginal dryness or recurrent post-menopausal bladder infections and read the accompanying paperwork you might, as many women do, toss the box away, muttering, “not for me”. There’s a “black box warning” printed there, alerting you that using the product increases your risk of blood clots, breast cancer, […]
