December 27th, 2014 - It is always fun when producer Andy Hopkins can join me in the studio, but we just never have enough time. So, this week we team up for the whole show. Without a guest or an agenda, we can mainly just have fun. However, so that we don't fritter away all your precious time talking about the year in review, family, sports or whatever, I promise to offer one hopefully useful health tip per segment.

December 20th, 2014 - Especially at holidays, most of us want to know how to have more joy, love, and peace and to successfully deal with depression, frustration, and anxiety. Psychotherapist and award-winning author, Jude Bijou MA MFT offered tips for doing that. Her book is Attitude Reconstruction: A Blueprint for Building a Better Life. Then we continued the theme with Jerzy Gregorek, who will give us 4 Ways to Boost Health Goals with Gratitude. He is the author of The Happy Body: The Simple Science of Nutrition, Exercise, and Relaxation. At the end of the show Andy and I joshed a bit about Christmas gifts and offer holiday wishes.

December 13th, 2014 - My guest for the whole show is Certified Natural Health Professional & Nutritional Consultant, Valerie Hall. The topic will be bones..what weakens them, what strengthens them and how to choose among bone supplements. What are the best types of calcium and a bit about some of my favorite nutrients: Vitamin D3, K2, and Magnesium. We discuss what makes Doctor's Best supplements so good. Here is that link we discussed to the website with research on vitamin K2.

December 6th, 2014 - First up, Dr. Daniel J. Crisafi PhD, MH. Is the author of Syndrome S:  How to Avoid, Manage, and Reverse the Negative Health Effects of Stress. It is a very good book and you can get it free (Call 1-800-421-2998 and leave a message if it is after business hours in California.) Did you know that anxiety and panic attacks can be physical or chemical and not just psychological? Then I talked with Holly Bellebuono, director of The Bellebuono School of Herbal Medicine in Massachusetts. We discussed her lovely book, Women Healers of the World: The Traditions, History & Geography of Herbal Medicine.

November 29th, 2014 - Nutritionist, author, blogger and radio host, Bill Sardi discusses over-mineralization--how the minerals calcium, iron and copper can increase the risks for disease and premature aging when adults store them in excess. We will also cover some ways to reduce those excesses, including resveratrol.  I also bring up recent news on vitamin D.

November 22nd, 2014 - We discussed why fermented foods are important, how to get started making them at home and what to buy if you prefer that someone else to do the fermenting. My guest was Nancy Lee Bentley, author of Truly Cultured. This book is on a tremendous sale at $18.50 with a bonus of one of two of my books. Good gift idea. We also visited with John Willard about exciting new research into why Willard Water works so well. He offered listeners 20% off if they mentioned the Healthy by Nature Show. The Willard Water phone number = 888-379-4552

November 15th, 2014 - Research on hormones has left most folks a little bit confused. We talked about bio-identical hormones and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in particular. Not only its benefits in middle age and beyond but also why supplementing it through the skin is the preferred way. My first guest, Hugh Woodward, MS of Twist 25 helped us understand. Then, producer and periodic guest host, Andy Hopkins, took over the microphone and asked me some questions about Aloe vera and fats.

November 8th, 2014 - John Young, MD told us a funny story about a patient and a witch doctor but, more importantly how to build a great foundation for health.

Yoanna Kanalakis also has a book, Secrets to Looking Young Naturally. That will help us add a good looking face to the healthy body that Dr. Young helps us build. Yoanna is always a hoot.

November 1st, 2014 - I asked Andrew Shepherd, DC about what things we do in everyday life that cause us structural problems and how chiropractic actually heals the cause of disease rather than just calm symptoms. Why would an infant who was delivered by caesarian section need an immediate adjustment? Is anyone too old to see a chiropractor? I also inquired about the qualifications and training of chiropractors. Then Jonathan Clinthorne, PhD (of Natural Grocers) and I talked about pluses, minuses and myths regarding the Paleo diet. I also asked him what we can do to minimize the health damage we do to ourselves over the holidays.
