Paula and I dislike cilantro; it tastes like soap to us. According to research, that’s a genetic trait. However, cilantro appears to have some very interesting qualities relating to seizures and neurological disorders. Here’s the study. A research group examined the components of the herb Coriandrum sativum. This herb, commonly known as cilantro, has been […]
Did you ever forget where you put something? Do you ever have trouble remembering the right word when you’re trying to explain something? Did those events ever make you worry about your memory? Based on the questions I get, many of you are concerned. The second study examined what foods may help your memory. Researchers […]
As a conventional medical journal and one of the leading medical journals in the world, The Journal of the American Medical Association doesn’t often publish reviews of the impact of food on health. However, a recent edition of the Journal included a summary of three such studies, and that’s the topic for this week. The […]
As I plan my travel for 2020, I’d like your feedback on which cities I should visit. I’m thinking North America, but if you’re convinced I should go elsewhere, let me know. Here’s a link to a very short survey—only six questions. Survey What are you prepared to do today? I hope you’re in […]

Here are some examples of what that can mean. Researchers recently published a paper on the impact of a narrow band of ultraviolet light on the […]
We’re going to finish this month’s look at living life instead of just being alive by talking about brain health. The brain is the command center of the body, telling it what to do 24/7 without you having to think about it. Be honest: when was the last time you consciously told your heart to […]

If we work on every one of the prior physical components, it enhances our ability to stay upright until we choose not […]
