Immune health, general health, and food: A doctor goes natural.

“Let your food be your medicine and your medicine be your food,” said Hippocrates, “The Father of Medicine”  He’s also the dude who’s purported to have said, “First, do no harm,” known to many as the Hippocratic Oath, the core of medical ethics.

See the clip below. Does it remotely look  at all  like an ABC News health feature? [...]

‘Hot Yoga’ and allergies – does it work?

A fellow Twitterer recently posted a message about “hothouse yoga.” He feels it makes a difference in helping diminish allergies.   More information is here.  Also known at “hot yoga” or Bikram yoga, this yoga in performed in a heated room.
