unique disease way
I have developed a unique way of looking at the relationship of the human body to health and disease.
unique medicine care
I'm a big believer in what's called personalized medicine, which refers to customizing your health care to your specific needs based on your physiology, genetics, value system and unique conditions.
time
We talk about cancer as a noun, as if it's a one time event: 'I've got cancer.'
morning moving shoes
When's the last time you really thought about what you eat, how much you move throughout the day, whether or not you feel fantastic when you get up in the morning, and which shoes keep your feet comfortable?
body-love body predictability
Of all the things a body loves, predictability is one of them.
cancer may facts
We may never understand illnesses such as cancer. In fact, we may never cure it. But an ounce of prevention is worth more than a million pounds of cure.
doctors disease want
I want doctors to treat toward health and not treat toward disease,
motivation inspiration two
In health care today, we spend most of the dollars - in terms of treating disease - in the last two years of a person's life.
healthy soil grows
Keep the soil healthy and the bad seed won't grow.
baby flu-vaccine shoes
Take charge of hidden, sneaky sources of chronic inflammation that can trigger illness and disease by wearing comfortable shoes daily, getting an annual flu vaccine, and asking your doctor why you're not on a statin and baby aspirin if you're over the age of forty.
mean fate dna
If your DNA profile puts you at a higher risk of developing obesity, that doesn't mean it's your fate. You can take control of the environmental side of the equation and reduce your overall lifetime risk by a lot.
cancer men two
Cancer is the ultimate nemesis that hangs in the balance for one in three women and one in two men in their lifetime.
sleep exercise years
Keep a strict, predictable schedule 365 days a year that has you eating, sleeping, and exercising at about the same times day in and day out.
cancer firsts forgotten
We have forgotten that curing cancer starts with preventing cancer in the first place.
