3 health conditions that should make you think twice about surgery if you’re a senior

Surgery is never something to go into lightly. It’s a major event that puts your body under a lot of stress, which is why it’s important to weigh the risks and benefits very carefully… especially if you’re over 65. The fact is surgery is far more dangerous for older people than younger people. Older people are more likely to have problems with anesthesia. Recovery is also more painful and prolonged…

How your sports history could lead to erectile dysfunction problems

One of my uncles played football all through high school. In fact, his dream was to go pro and he put all he had into every single game. Now, looking back on it, not only is he thankful he never got his shot at the NFL, he wishes he had never even played. Yet every day, his body reminds him he did… From shoulders that don’t want to raise his…

How stress changes your metabolism to gain weight and develop diabetes

You’ve been told a million times that “managing stress” is an important part of taking care of your health. But how seriously do you really take this advice? Do you go out of your way to reduce day-to-day stressors? Do you practice relaxation techniques every evening (and I’m not talking about watching TV)? I have a feeling that most of us don’t take this advice all that seriously. We read…

The ‘other’ condition that can put you on the danger list for COVID-19 and flu

With all of the very real worries over Coronavirus right now — schools shutting down, restaurants closing, and Navy hospital ships being sent to ports to alleviate patient overload — it’s easy to overlook the fact that there’s another danger to your health this season… The flu. Yep, it can’t be said too many times that while Coronavirus is serious, we shouldn’t ignore flu warnings either. In fact, this has…

When weight loss surgery steals your bone density

Obesity can be a death sentence. According to the National Institutes of Health, obesity-related conditions are responsible for about 300,00 deaths per year in the United States. Diet and exercise can reverse obesity for many people. But thousands of people each year turn to gastric bypass surgery as a more drastic method for losing weight quickly. Unfortunately, the sudden weight loss that comes after such surgery (as much as 60…

Can cannabis go from joint to antibiotic?

Fact: the antibiotics your doctor prescribes when you have strep throat or a bladder infection or a sinus infection are becoming less effective by the day. In fact, antibiotic resistance has doubled over the past 20 years. And if we don’t find alternatives soon, what were once mild, easily-treatable ailments could become far bigger problems. It’s no surprise, then, that scientists are searching far and wide for compounds that can…

Can zinc really help protect you from COVID-19?

Right around the time COVID-19 started gaining traction in the U.S., an email from pathologist James Robb went viral. James, who is one of the first molecular virologists in the world to work on coronaviruses, provided advice for preventing it’s spread. A lot of his advice is stuff you’ve been hearing for weeks now… Wash your hands frequently (and at least for 20 seconds). Use sanitizer after being out in…

How eating for heart health can save your brain

Nelson Mandela said, “A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination.” By this, I think he meant that a good head — the ability to think clearly and precisely — along with a good heart — the kindness of spirit — together, can do great things. It shouldn’t surprise us, then, that as far as our physical body goes, what’s good for the heart is also…

What you give up after starting BP and cholesterol medications may destroy your health faster

In many ways, the healthcare options we have in our country (and other parts of the world with strong, high-quality systems) have become a Catch 22. Why? Because in addition to helping us live longer, better, and healthier, they can also give us an excuse to turn over our personal responsibility for our health to our doctor or even a drug. And, according to a new study, that’s often exactly…
