While experts would agree that in most cases you should preferably be seen by your primary care doctor instead of using the ER, you may not have a choice in the matter, especially if you, say, are involved in a serious-injury-inducing car accident.In fact, it may come down to whether you are a... 10/26/2023 4:00:00 AM
by Joel Fuhrman, M.D. I frequently get invited to speak to students at school assemblies about nutrition.

by Wellness Editor Ever feel more inclined to veg out on the sofa than hit the gym? If so, you’re not alone. What’s more, "laziness" might be a perfectly normal part of being human — it may be in our biology.Our ancestors likely had to spend a good part of their days foraging and hunting for food, so they became programmed to rest whenever they could to save energy. That programming appears to persist in modern humans.... 2/14/2025 5:00:00 AM
by Wellness Editor Friends can be a great help in times of trouble. They are, for many of us, the foundation on which we stand. We rely on them for our emotional wellbeing. But not all of them are healthy. And when they aren't, well, an unhealthy foundation is a very bad thing that affects the rest of our lives. Toxic friendships can actually be the cause of great unwellness. But how can we tell when a relationship is... 11/15/2024 5:00:00 AM

by Carol Osborne Antioxidants are widely recognized as one of the most important weapons in our battle against pet aging and disease. All the physiological processes in pets and people require oxygen, which provides us with energy. Bi-products of burning oxygen, similar to the sparks given off by a fire, are also produced in your pet's body.
