When I see someone who’s morbidly obese, I don’t feel judgment. I feel heartbreak. I just think: God, I want to help you. Not to shame you. Not to scold you. But because I know what’s coming if nothing changes. Diabetes. Hypertension. Heart failure. Joint pain. Breathlessness.

I’m seeing a wave of older adults with 20–30 years of type 2 diabetes, many on insulin for over a decade, finally waking up. They come to me wanting to reverse the damage and get off the meds they were told they’d be on for life. It’s one of the most rewarding parts of my work

There are many ways to eat healthy. Don’t be too dogmatic. Eat whole food ingredients. Prioritize protein and healthy fats. This is a Cobb salad minus the croutons with seared salmon and chimichurri dressing.

There is no diet more effective at immediately lowering and stabilizing blood sugar in diabetes than a very low-carb diet. That’s not an opinion. It’s clinical reality. If someone tells you otherwise, they’ve either never managed a real diabetic patient, or they’re too

I know some of you are struggling: overweight, diabetic, hypertensive, dealing with fatty liver or gout, eating a diet that’s wrecking your health. And still haven’t taken the first step to change. If that’s you, what’s stopping you? You already know what happens if you don’t.

People say they’d do anything for their kids. But they eat like crap. They’re overweight, exhausted, prediabetic or worse. Living on meds and fast food. That’s not “doing everything” for your kids. That’s neglecting the one thing they need most: A healthy, energetic, present

If you have type 2 diabetes, your risk of dying from heart disease is 2–4x higher. It’s not just a sugar problem. Diabetes is a metabolic hurricane that damages your arteries, fuels inflammation, and accelerates heart attacks, strokes, dementia, kidney failure, cancer, & death.

We fed kids ultra-processed junk for every meal. Now they have fried brains, wrecked metabolisms, and mood issues. Our solution? Medicate them with drugs instead of fixing their diet. This isn’t healthcare. It’s systemic child abuse.

We need to redefine what fast food looks like. This is a 5-minute meal. Pre-cooked ground beef with 4 eggs scrambled into it and an avocado on the side.

We’d never expose a newborn to 6 infections at once, yet that’s exactly what we do when we give a fragile infant multiple vaccines in a single visit. That doesn’t happen in nature. A baby’s immune system isn’t designed to handle that kind of assault all at once. And it’s not

Insulin isn’t just a blood sugar hormone. Chronically high insulin: – Retains sodium – Activates stress response – Thickens vessel walls – Impairs vasodilation – Disrupts metabolism Hyperinsulinemia is the perfect storm for high blood pressure now affecting 50% of people.

Sometimes I wish I had it in me to launch a flashy supplement line, slap a “proprietary blend” label on it, and promise magical results. But I have this inconvenient thing called a conscience, and it won’t let me scam people for profit. Yes, targeted supplements can be helpful

At 54, Mary came to me with a laundry list of health issues: obesity, prediabetes, high triglycerides, chronic inflammation, constant fatigue, low vitamin D, multiple joints pain, back pain, and anxiety. She felt trapped in a body that just wasn’t cooperating. She thought maybe

You don’t need an RCT to know a splinter causes pain & inflammation— & removing it helps. But when it comes to obvious modern “splinters” like ultra-processed food, seed oils, & HFCS, PhD nutritionists demand a meta-analysis before admitting harm. Common sense isn’t so common.

No matter what diet you follow, the ones that actually work all have one thing in common: they cut the junk, ditch ultra-processed food, minimize sugar, and prioritize real, whole food.

The number of people who still want to blame their genes for what their choices in life are doing remains staggering. When you state the fact that food is what’s making people chronically sick, people get angry and nasty. Damn, homies! I seem to have struck a nerve when I tell
