I have been telling you to avoid non-organic chicken for a long time.  The primary reason has always been the arsenic that is found in the chicken feed. It acts as a preservative to the feed, while boosting growth of the chicken.  So when you buy your “All Natural – no antibiotics and hormones ever” chicken, you have been buying arsenic laden chicken, which in reality is worse than an antibiotic or hormone treated chicken. It was a number of years ago when the studies showing arsenic in fast food chicken products flooded onto the market, here is a sample […]

I am just back from the beach. The beach is one of my absolute favorite vacations, as I love it, my wife loves it, and so do both of my daughters.  We simply have a great time there!  And though, I do a pretty good job of keeping it all under control when it comes to my lifestyle, I surely do not keep it as tight as I do here! So after ice cream, fudge, dinners out at restaurants that do not swear by their clean ingredients, and slipping into some caffeine… it is time to clean it up!  Tonight […]

If you’ve ever tuned into the A&E television program Hoarders, it doesn’t take a genius to quickly realize it’s going to take more than a bottle of Windex to clean up all the garbage, moldy food and rotting animal poop that’s been accumulating in those houses for years and years and years…   But some people accumulate health problems the same way, and unrealistically believe it will take just a visit or two at the Chiropractor’s to fix all their issues.  From years of neglect, bad advice and denial, their chronic illnesses pile up until they can no longer recognize […]

Dr. Levi Take an aspirin a day to prevent a heart attack is an often presented wisdom that few actually think about. So what are the numbers behind this sage advice? Who lives?  Who dies? Who thinks it works but doesn’t? Who get’s the stroke or ulcer? Who benefits from every person over 45 being on an aspirin? In an article titled   “Does aspirin cut deaths? New study clouds picture” the authors review some aspirin statistics that every user should know. 1,111 people would have to take an aspirin a day for 4 -10 years to prevent 1 death. It’s […]

  I always considered myself a “healthy” kid growing up – athleticism was my proof. In the fall of my senior year of high school, I made the All-Cobb County High School Football team. I was literally on top of the world – Sports were at an all time high, just got accepted to the University of Georgia, wonderful family, great girlfriend, plugged in at church; what could possible go wrong in my life? Spring of 2004, my little world was rocked as I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis; little did I know that I would quickly lose my football […]

Old news, but good news.  It was March 2nd of this year when the FDA announced that more than 500 cold, cough and allergy prescription products were to be pulled from the market.  With all manufacturing stopping within 90 days and off the shelves within 180 (I always find it interesting how a decision is made based on lack of safety, then they allow the product to continue on the market). Web MD has a nice article on this announcement, and states that there is an irrational combination of ingredients in many of these products, such as two or more […]

So I get that most of you think I eat perfectly, which I don’t.  Look at the picture below, I eat it all (except that looks like a ham, and I don’t eat pig… and my hotdogs are always nitrite/nitrate free beef dogs).  But I eat bread, just not a lot, I very rarely eat pasta… but I do eat  it… just rare.  Corn too.  Yeah, I hate the corn market, and the way that Monsanto has destroyed most corn crops, but I will eat it. My point, is that though I can find fault with many foods, doesn’t mean […]

127 hours…  Aron Ralston spent that many hours trapped in a crevice in Utah starting on April 26, 2003 and finally ending six days later when he performed an hour long surgery to remove his right arm with a “multitool” which had no sharp knife, and a dull pair of scissors to boot.  His willingness to accept what it would take to survive, is the only reason why he did. Aron was trapped when a boulder that he was leveraging against came loose, he fell, and so did the boulder that pinned his arm into a tight crevice.  With meager […]
