Want to reduce the supplements you are needlessly taking? Comfortably enjoy more foods not less! That’s my goal as well. Professional guidance goes a long way.

Spoiler: NDs aren’t the food police—they’re about restoration, not restriction.

Humans have been eating yogurt for millennia. Ancient texts reference its health-promoting properties. Now a new study finds yogurt may reduce the risk of certain types of colon cancer.

I always educate my patients about the importance of proper timing of light exposure for energy, sleep, and overall endocrine health. If no light is available in the morning because of the time of year, I recommend a “happy light”.

Diet, exercise and sleep are fundamental to our health, but so it our relationship to light. A massive, new study suggests light-driven disruption can take years off our lives.
