Give this incredible organ the treatment it deserves.
I’ll admit it: I am in awe of the liver. As far as I’m concerned, this amazing organ nestled away in the right side of the abdomen has more than earned its name, which is derived from an old English word for “life.” The liver is your key to life, even possessing the unique ability to regenerate itself. Although your liver may need up to two years for this regeneration process, you can rebuild this vital organ with the right diet and detox plan. These… Continue reading Categories

Spring is Liver Time
April 28th, 2011Give this incredible organ the treatment it deserves.
I’ll admit it: I am in awe of the liver. As far as I’m concerned, this amazing organ nestled away in the right side of the abdomen has more than earned its name, which is derived from an old English word for “life.” The liver is your key to life, even possessing the unique ability to regenerate itself.

What you need to know about the change before the change.
What on Earth was happening to my body? Exhausted after several nights of not being able to sleep properly, here I was again, awake at 4 A.M., feeling palpitations in my heart. Until this began, I would have slept through a hurricane. Was this the start of a heart condition or a nervous breakdown?
After a productive but extremely stressful year of travel, radio shows, lectures, and book promotions, I had relocated my office and was in the midst of remodeling my home… Continue reading Join Green Team ALG

Earth Day 2011.
Tomorrow is Earth Day. First organized in 1970, the concept of Earth Day marked the advent of the modern day environmental movement. It’s a time to rededicate our efforts in being more proactive about going “green” and preserving the “mother” we all share.
While the outdoor environment and matters of sustainability are still major themes today, what concerns me most is the quality and purity of the indoor environment. As a matter of fact, indoor air pollution is one of the leading health risks in the environment. In fact, some chemicals may be nearly 100 times more… Continue reading Autism Awareness

Can you improve your unborn child’s health?
I am so concerned about the rising rates of children being diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs)—a group of developmental disabilities that contribute to major social, communicative, and behavioral challenges. ASDs are now estimated to occur in 1 in 110 children in the U.S. alone.
Could the plethora of childhood vaccinations be the cause? Or perhaps heavy metals, fungus and fungal metabolites, and/or a lack of glutathione—the body’s premier antioxidant, which is known as the “toxic waste eliminator.”
I found a recent study very interesting which sheds more light… Continue reading Got Milk?

I hope not.
It’s all over the news. The radiation from the Japanese Fukushima nuclear meltdown is spreading world wide—and has been found in our milk. The levels of Iodine 131 alone have been reported to be 300% higher than maximum. But what about the other radioactive elements that could be in milk—a primary food source of calcium that many Americans depend upon for building strong teeth and bones.
First off, it’s strange to me that nobody is talking about Strontium 90—the most hazardous of all radiation elements to the bones and teeth. It… Continue reading When Aftershocks Rattle Your Personal World

Shake off stress, anxiety, and depression naturally.
If there is one health solution I can’t live without, it’s Ultra H-3. As the single most effective dietary supplement to help me cope with life’s inevitable ups and downs—deadlines, interviews, articles, the passing of loved ones, unexpected friends’ illness, natural disasters, the economy—it helps me maintain my sanity. I call it my secret weapon “Blues Buster” because it has such a profound effect on brain chemistry—producing a naturally induced mental high.
Few herbs, hormones, or even meds can equal Ultra H-3’s uplifting… Continue reading Spring Clean for Health

Are you a spring body type?
The concept of detoxing by the seasons targets major detoxification pathways and is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine’s approach to health throughout the year. The seasons, which last approximately three months each, have their own rhythm and character, bringing temperature and weather changes, as well as differing hours of daylight—all of which affect health. The Chinese understood that the Earth has its seasonal periods when certain organs are more vulnerable and need special care. For example, the focus is on your liver and gall bladder in the spring, your heart and small… Continue reading Does Sunscreen Cause More Harm than Good?

You may not be receiving the protection you thought you were.
Americans have a long-running love affair with sunscreen. These days you can choose if you want a lotion, a spray, or a mist. After a trip down the makeup isle you’ll be getting SPF just from powdering your nose. And who needs SPF 30 when you could have SPF 90? It almost seems like we’ve become “afraid” of the sun—but is it sunscreen we should be afraid of?
At least 75 percent of our body’s vitamin D supply is made when a type… Continue reading
