A city sees reduction in employee visits to the doctor’s office. How? EpiCor.

How do you measure improved immune function? Maybe by fewer sniffles and sneezes along with less itching and watery eyes during allergy season. Maybe by less coughing and wheezing along with reduced fever and body aches during winter crud season. Here’s another measure, especially if you are an employer that provides group health insurance to your [...]

When a unique, natural nutritional ingredient gets the attention of the administrators of one of the fastest growing suburban communities in the country, something’s happening out there.

Young docs and working for a living. Some immune health tips and surprises

The Huffington Post is one of my favorite news portals, simply because it offers so much in one place. From time to time I check in with its health section to see what’s being written. I like it because the story headlines have a little attitude and the pictures kind of pull you in. Beyond [...]

Create a reward system to support your immune system

I spend most of the work day in front of computer screens doing client work. I love the projects, but let’s face it, 8 hours or more each day (and during parts of weekends) in front of a two-dimensional screen can drive you a little batty sometimes. In order to break up the routine and [...]

Immune Balance hits the air on the talk radio circuit

It doesn’t have the bulk numbers that other places like WebMD has (who does??), but it is growing and is generating a lot of original discussion. My friending activity has produced several dozen cohorts in just a few weeks. [...]

Sense of community and group involvement can help maintain healthy immune function

Think about it. What do you feel like after you’ve sat around with a group of friends and reminisced about days gone by, plowed over stories of college hi jinks, talked about former jobs and trips and games? Most likely you come away from those group free-for-alls feeling great and in high spirits. You probably [...]

Is the economy turning more people to preventive health?

So you’ve lost your job, or your new job doesn’t have decent health benefits. Now what? According to a New York Times story, many people may be turning to nutritional supplements to manage their health as a way to steer clear of expensive doctor’s visits and prescriptions, especially when their premiums are shooting up or [...]

Pain from the brain which immune balance can constrain

A Wall Street Journal health piece this week goes into some impressive depth on new ways that conventional medicine is approaching stress-related illness. Instead of  “Where does it hurt? Here’s a prescription,” treatment is moving toward, “Where does it hurt? Tell me what’s going on in your life.”  The medical community increasingly is recognizing what alternative and natural [...]

A mega study on stress and immune health

(Editor’s note: During this football bowl season we figured why not go wide and go deep. So Embria Health Science’s Dr. Stuart Reeves has thrown a long ball: an great overview of a meta-analysis of how stress can impact immune health.
