Yes! I need help conquering the chaos!
The bi-valent COVID booster is on its way. It should be a big deal, but folks out there have omicron-ic fatigue syndrome, it seems. “COVID vaccine fatigue” is gripping the nation per Google News, and many are predicting low uptake of the newest, baddest booster. That’s a problem. The bigger problem? The messaging (and the …
As a (wanna-be?) business guy, I hang on every word uttered by some of the world’s best marketing minds. One handsome gent that has my undying attention and devotion is Seth Godin. Seth’s blog on Friday struck a chord with me: “Oppositional energy is easy to create and spread. Once you pick a ‘they’, then …
A new, large, high-quality study released in the New England Journal of Medicine concludes that Vitamin D supplementation has no effect on fracture risk in patients over 50. It’s for real. I talk about the study briefly in this video on my social feed. People are upset. If you’ve learned anything from COVID, it’s that …
I’m an advocate for supplements. I’m not obsessively into them, but I use them and can appreciate some people who make them a big part of their life. I also know there are problems with supplements. Vitamins, herbs, probiotics, and their ilk are often not what they seem. The products can be dangerous, directly or …
Frustrations are hitting a fevered pitch, and the sentiment “I’M DONE WITH THIS!” along with the current—and the temporary—valley of the post-omicron wave has morphed into a widespread “COVID IS OVER!” mentality. I get it, you’re done. I’m done. To speak with hyperbole as a past President*, “There’s no one that wants to be done …
Long time no talk! A bunch has happened, most of which has been chronicled on my Facebook and Instagram. The world has changed. I’ve changed. Mostly in mass due to coping via M&Ms. I’m mentally changed too. Let me explain… Do you know the show, Impractical Jokers? They put each other up to really painful, …
Here I am. Here we are. One year later. Today marks the one-year anniversary of our first COVID-19 vaccine clinic. Back on January 13th, 2021, we immunized 120 of some of the luckiest folks in the Hudson Valley, state, country, and world. Those doses were of the first of the first to be offered to …
“Now more than ever,” we’ve been told that “these uncertain times” are now “the new normal,” and to “navigate the uncertain times” you should buy from our brand because “we’re all in this together.” Nauseating cliches that don’t reflect reality, amirite? First, your brand sucks, and Pop-Tarts won’t really get us through this. Second, we’re …
My guiding principle is a simple one. I believe that both the wellness industry and the American medical industry stand in the way of our optimal selves. In particular, the wellness industry tends to take a very anti-vaccine position. Being “pro-vaccination” (though I argue that is NOT a dichotomy we should subscribe to) brings about …
My mission is to help all people sort through the misinformation and BS to make the BEST health and wellness decisions they can. Holistic doesn’t mean anti-medicine. Quite the opposite, actually. Holistic means whole body, and conventional, appropriate medical interventions are a big part of my model for true holistic care, the Wellness Pyramid. Translated …
