Trump Wrong!

Why You’re Wrong When You Think You’re Right

I publish a health, fitness, and culture blog. These are lifetime passions of mine. Like most people, I have my political opinions, but I try to keep them away from the blog. I want to help everybody who seeks it; and don’t want to alienate people who may not agree with some of my non-related views. But the Coronavirus (COVID-19)… Read the rest

Who Would Be AGAINST A CURE And Why?

This past Saturday, President Trump touted a possible cure for Coronavirus (COVID-19) through a Tweet. It’s a combination of hydroxychloroquine and a commonly used antibiotic, azithromycin. According to the CDC, “Hydroxychloroquine is used for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and porphyria cutanea tarda.” It has also been used successfully to fight malaria.

In my last post, I featured little-discussed (and natural) weapons to fight Coronavirus—namely sleep, rest, meditation/prayer and food choices. Today, I want to speak briefly about three more natural weapons—fresh air, sunlight, and exercise. One thing we have to remember about natural weapons is that they can be easily overlooked, because they are simple and free or low cost. Fresh… Read the rest

The Best Little-Discussed Weapons to Fight Coronavirus

We’ve heard a lot about washing hands and other hygienic practices to help stem the Coronavirus outbreak. Believe me, this is welcome, as the amount of people you see failing to wash their hands after using a public restroom is downright disgusting. But there are other weapons that I believe are at least as important in fighting infectious diseases. In… Read the rest

Life Is About LIFE

I ate a whole carton of cookies and cream ice cream this afternoon. Yup—1.5 quarts worth, or put another way, nine servings of eight grams of saturated fat each for a total of 72 grams of saturated fat! Whoah! And I’m a natural health and fitness consultant?

“…I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts…”—Hebrews 8:10 KJV No moving parts. This is a theme that has run through me for a long time. I’ve always intuitively known that—though physical movement is crucial for human existence—internal movement wears us down mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. So our aim should be to “move or… Read the rest

Why I’m Obsessed with Larry Bird Videos

When I have a little free time, I like to scan YouTube, as so many people do. And lately, I’ve been pulling up and binge-watching Larry Bird videos. What’s that all about? For those of you who don’t know, Larry Bird was one of the greatest basketball players in NBA history. He was also known as the bitter rival of… Read the rest

The Best Workout is… WORK!

In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.—Genesis 3:19 KJV I have been too busy to write for some time, but I’m glad to get back to it.
