by Janet Valenty Okay, I like an evening glass of good red wine or the occasional martini, so you have to know I got a kick about writing this title. But alas, that's not what this article is about. No, this article is about something else entirely… actually it's about something that I have to admit I thought I'd be kicking and screaming before I would agree to drink this stuff. Just so you know where I'm coming from:... 1/15/2015 8:00:00 AM
by Fred Fletcher When you think of the word "war," what comes to mind? Doesn't it involve 2 or more entities confronting each other over some differences of opinion or possessions? While the tools and the motivation behind all wars may differ, one thing is always expected or understood: the goal is to win. Since the so-called "war on cancer" was launched in 1971, many things have taken place, including the investment... 1/11/2015 8:00:00 AM
by John Valenty You can't be your healthiest and live life to the fullest when you wake up anxious and under pressure to meet non-stop deadlines, responding to piles of messages and juggle work and family obligations.

by DearJames Dear James, I have diabetes and I really need to lose some weight, workout more, as well as decrease my intake of a lot of things that aren't good for a diabetic such as sodas and chips. How do I stay motivated, when I only work out two days a week, and sometimes not at all? It's like my mind can't stay truly focused on that because of my career situation which is being without a job now for almost... 1/5/2015 8:00:00 AM
by Rob Greenstein You walk down an aisle in the huge supermarket that stocks just about everything imaginable. Your cart already contains food, about which you feel virtuous because you conscientiously read labels to avoid unhealthy additives. Spying a shampoo brand you saw in a TV ad, you drop the plastic bottle into your cart. The same brand of hair conditioner gets snapped up next. Further along, toothpastes are... 1/4/2015 8:00:00 AM

Anyone who is unhappy with their body, and has ever gone to a class at the gym, picked up a magazine, or had a conversation with friends, has at some point heard someone say something like one of these statements. In this diet obsessed culture we live in,... 12/28/2014 8:00:00 AM
by Rob Greenstein Bees are essential to the plant foods we eat. In the U.S. alone, industrious bees annually help pollinate crops worth more than $200 billion. Pollination is the main job they perform for humans. Raw honey is the main product they produce. What is “raw" honey? Isn't all honey the same—a sweet sticky substance made by bees that you add to your tea or drizzle into a bowl of cereal? Wrong! Raw organic... 12/21/2014 8:00:00 AM
