Could Red Meat Be The Fountain Of Youth?

Why I Became A Cannabis Sommelier

Celery Juice. A Dangerous Fad?
I wasn't going to write about this, I mean I'm carnivore after all so what does this have to do with me? Well I wasn't always carnivore which means that a large number of my patients are also not carnivore (yet). I've noticed a few things with this fad but wanted to...
What If It’s Not The Food? What If It’s The Additives IN The Food…
By now I'm sure that most of you have heard of Glyphosate, I've written many articles about the dangers over these past few years,especially if you suffer MTHFR issues... I've also talked about our CYP450 enzyme pathway in regards to pharmaceuticals and cannabis....

Boron, A Supplement For Carnivores Or Is It For Everyone?
