My parents both have had high glucose level, and regularly taken diabetes drugs to control. I told them about bad side effects of these drugs and it's better to use diet to treat the disease, only to be told "We're in our 70's, why should we suffer by not eating what we like?"

Well, last fall, they came to visit us, and stayed for a couple of months. Simply by eating with us, with a healthier diet, now both of them are off the drugs. "We learned how your guys eat. Now we don't even want to get back to our previous diet. It feels so good!"

Prostate cancer, like many other cancers, is definitely not fun to go through. Not only the potential of death when the cancer spread, but also the risk of side effects such as impotence after surgery. Just listen to the Voice of Prostate Cancer from the New York Times - that will motivate you to try all you can to avoid it.  There's really no good "cure"!

The Environmental Working Group, a Washington-based nonprofit, has released an investigation of nearly 1,000 brand-name sunscreens that says four out of five don't adequately protect consumers and may contain harmful chemicals, as reported by CNN.

 

The group says some of the products of the nation's leading brands -- including Coppertone, Neutrogena and Banana Boat -- are the poorest performers. Read about the study.

I bet Ponce de Leon never counted on THIS type of fountain of youth. A new study reveals there could be a "super-antioxidant" that could regenerate skin at the cellular level.

A team of researchers, led by Dr. Kimberly Stone, M.D. are studying a blend of Protandium (which has been clinically proven to slow the progressive rate of aging and LP Derma Complex (shown to effectively reduce the appearance of wrinkles and other effects of aging upon the skin). The study will seek to determine if a topical cream made from these two ingredients will become the next big thing when providing proven methods to age gracefully.

In this article, we'll talk about male hormone replacement therapy (HRT). In the following articles, we'll cover female HRT.

YBM Hormone protocol emphasize critical importance of keeping a young hormone level and balance: "The decline of sex hormones causes many degenerative diseases, among which are decreased muscle and increased fat, skin thinning, osteoporosis, depression, memory loss, decreased energy and endurance, heart diseases, prostate enlargement/cancer (male), breast cancer (female), decreased libido, impotence (male). Fundamentally, DECLINING OF SEX HORMONES MAKES ONE OLD!"

To maintain a young male hormone level and balance, we need to avoid alcohol consumption.

 

Most studies of alcohol's effects on male reproduction have been conducted in rats because the rat model mimics the human male reproductive system. Research has demonstrated that both acute and chronic alcohol exposure are associated with low levels of hypothalamic LHRH and pituitary LH in the adult and pubertal male rat, and further studies have suggested that alcohol inhibits testosterone secretion by the testes as well.

Sugar is not good for a healthy diet. But many "sugar-free" foods with sweeteners should not be consumed either.

Many of our patients visiting our anti-aging clinic are confused about tofu. This is because of the confusing report in the media. It has become a FAD that eating tofu is bad, because it "turns" male to female, "due to its phyto-estrogen content", especially when this concept is promoted by some famous doctors (e.g., watch Dr. Mercola's video). There's even articles talking about "soy makes kids gay".

In my blog entry "Is Exercise for Burning Calories?", I talked about why it's not an efficient way of losing weight. In this post, I'd like to talk about other myths of exercises.

Sometimes, I wish scientists would spend the scarce research dollars doing some real stuff. For example, this research showed taking painkillers can enhance muscle mass during weight training. So everyone should take painkiller during training? What about the side effects to liver and kidney? A common sense explanation of this may be that people would be less in pain and could do more exercise if they take painkillers, therefore increasing muscle mass more. But this is not to trade with all the side effect of the drug.

There's a lot of expert advice on food you should eat, such as this article/book which advocates eating five types of foods every day, whole grains, dark green leafy vegetables, nuts, low fat yogurt or milk, tea.
Do we listen to the advice?
