    Peer- Reviewed…..really?

    The Editor-in-Chief of the Lancet has recently declared that “much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue.

    Vitamins and Surgery: The Real Story A Report from the Front. Well, Maybe a Bit Lower.

    Orthomolecular Medicine News Service, August 24, 2015 Over 100 million Americans will undergo surgery this year, and I was one of them.  Not a big deal: a routine outpatient hernia repair, caused by sure-I-can-lift-that-extremely-heavy-box syndrome, the tendency towards which is almost certainly carried on the Y chromosome. In their personalized how-to-prepare-for-surgery instructions, both the surgeon…

    Create Your Own Brand Challenge  – or Spring Clean the one you already have

    Starting with a blank sheet of paper gives you a sense of having a fresh and clean starting point, but no sense of who you are, what you do or where you are going.
