It may not be your fault you’re fat, Part 1
July 15, 2015
It may not be your fault you're fat--blame your microbiome! New research suggests that the micro-organisms that comprise your intestinal ecosystem have a major impact on how you how absorb calories from your food; they also influence your appetite and metabolism via hormones like insulin, leptin, and adiponectin. They even may hijack your brain to seek junk food. Dr. Raphael Kellman, author of "The Microbiome Diet: The Scientifically Proven Way to Restore Your Gut Health and Achieve Permanent Weight Loss," shares cutting-edge research on how gut bacteria impact obesity. He describes dietary measures and lists nutraceuticals that restore gut balance and facilitate weight loss. Using his "Four R" approach, overweight individuals can re-populate their microbiome and achieve permanent weight loss and craving control. Have scientists discovered the "Holy Grail" probiotic that facilitates weight loss? What foods support healthy gut bacteria? Are there herbal supplements that suppress harmful intestinal bugs?

Today we visit with a health crusader from “across the pond”—Dr. Rob Verkerk, Scientific Director of the Alliance for Natural Health USA (www.ANH-USA.org), and Executive Director of ANH-International and ANH-Europe.

Alternative Cancer Therapies, Part 1
July 7, 2015
Dr. Dwight McKee spent over 10 years studying alternative cancer therapies before obtaining his board certification in Hematology/Oncology. This enabled him to better integrate natural approaches to cancer with conventional therapies in his subsequent career as a cancer specialist. Why do mainstream oncologists discourage patients from taking vitamins and supplements? Do they interfere with chemotherapy and radiation? Or can they be used to augment their effectiveness and protect patients from their harmful side effects? In his upcoming book, “After Cancer Care,” Dr. McKee enumerates the benefits of diet, exercise, stress management, and targeted nutraceuticals. What are some of the top supplements that should be in the arsenal of every recovering cancer patient? Click HERE for part 2.
