I have prepared another video for you today all about amino acids and how they are so useful for our patients. The concept here is simple and you may well think, as I explain the concept, that it is obvious, and yet many of you will not have known this before. Often, the most profound and universally truthful concepts seem so obvious when they are…

When it comes to bending the truth for increasing sales, there is no one better than the pharmaceutical industry. They are absolute masters. They love to increase the risk of an issue/disease or increase the benefits of a drug/intervention by taking an absolute risk reduction and turning it into a relative risk reduction. For example, how can they make a 1% increase in risk (absolute…

It has been quite a roller coaster, and that is just my blood sugar levels. In hindsight, wearing a continuous…
