Fatigue Could Have A SURPRISING Cause (WEIRD!)
When I was younger, I thought we ALL slowed down in our senior years. I was convinced it was a natural and inevitable part of aging. And that the retirement years were essentially for putting up your feet and relaxing (because it was too exhausting to do much else). But I now realize that’s no...
The Hidden Harm of Going Vegetarian
I have a number of friends and relatives who truly believe that eating a vegetarian or vegan diet is healthier. Some have even turned vegan based on a suggestion from their doctor.

Mailbag! Poor Sleep? Try a Circadian Rhythm REBOOT

WHY Perfectionism Backfires (Try THIS Instead)
I’ve seen a LOT of patients lately who are stressed out by their own perfectionism. They’ve trapped themselves in a prison of their own expectations. They’re convinced that they NEED eight full hours of sleep EVERY night. They think they MUST have a bowel movement promptly at 8 a.m. EVERY morning. And the world will...
