Occupy Health

We all have dreams and aspirations whether they be society imposed or generated from our hearts. Yet the Buddhists posit that suffering is caused by desire (duhkha). In an increasingly individualistic world, we are encouraged to define ourselves: through our achievements, relationships, appearance, beliefs, careers and countless other markers of identity. Does this relentless focus on who we are - and who we think we should be - may actually be contributing to our anxiety, dissatisfaction and ps

Negotiating the medical system can be challenging. Often, we don’t know what questions to ask, what all the options are, as well as knowing what our rights are in the medical system. How many times have you gone to see your doctor and left feeling there were more questions to be answered. Some people can benefit from health advocates who have experience and can help patients navigate the system. This becomes more complicated when entering the hospital. Upon entry, we sign some digital form wit

Historically, women have been under represented in all clinical research. As recently as 1992, US legislation was passed to ensure that women are represented in all clinical research. Medicine has assumed that women respond to medications the same as men and that they respond the same across the menstrual cycle. Further frustration to women is that it can take eight years to receive a diagnosis of endometriosis. This is the first generation where women were told they could have it all and were

Dr. Michael Kirk Moore, a dedicated and respected physician from Utah, stands as a testament to the power of individual conscience in an era of institutional overreach. For years, he faced the unimaginable—the threat of up to 35 years behind bars—simply for honoring his sacred oath to "do no harm." Initially, Dr. Moore acted with compassion to help children whose only alternative was to receive a vaccine they and their parents did not trust, or face restrictive masking mandates.

This had assumed that women respond to medications, and that there was no difference across their menstrual cycles.

Has the war on cancer been successful? What can we do to decrease our risks for getting cancer? What can we do to increase our prognosis once the cancer diagnosis is given. What can we do to feel we have some efficacy or input into what happens to us in the future. The WHO and crUK predicted that 42% of cancers are lifestyle related. Within that 40% are caused by obesity. Reducing inflammation and oxidative can improve most health outcomes including cancer. Phytochemicals, stress reduction, go

The US spends 20 % of its GNP on health care and has some of the worst outcomes. Over 50 % of adults and children have at least one chronic disease. In the 1960’s less than two percent had chronic diseases. We have 4.6 % of the world’s population yet use 50 % of the world’s pharmaceuticals. Just because your doctor tells you that your lab results are normal, that is no reason to cheer as these values are based on 95 % of a very sick population. For example, statins are given out readily, but d
