Exciting News!!!
I have the privilege of partnering with the House of Promise to offer Naturopathic care to the ladies in the program!

While it is so exciting to be able to offer more healing options for these ladies, we need your help. As you know, natural health supplements and wellness products are not covered by insurance. In order to be able to fully serve these ladies, we are asking you to help cover some of the expense for them.

Your donations are tax deductible and 100% of the money will go to purchase products the ladies need. If you want to help, click the link and go to the donate button. On the drop down menu, choose “health and wellness”.

Also check out the $500,000 match going on right now through the end of the year that will help secure the future of The House of Promise!

The House of Promise provides women survivors of severe s*xual abuse and s*x trafficking a safe place to heal and recover from the destructive patterns of abuse.

Wow...turns out seed oils are required for UV light to cause skin cancer in animals.

Mice fed 20% saturated fat had basically zero skin cancer....

But when fed 5 to 20% polyunsaturated fat, they developed tumors.

Stop blaming the sun for what seed oils did.

What is your favorite way to get fats in your diet?

In a nursing home filled with people in their 90s—many too frail to walk without help or stand up from a chair on their own—researchers decided to put them on a weight-training program.
Not light calisthenics. Not gentle stretching. High-intensity progressive resistance training, three times a week, with loads that eventually reached about 80% of each person’s maximum. The results, published in JAMA in 1990 by Maria Fiatarone and colleagues, upended long-held assumptions about aging and muscle.
Ten frail, institutionalized volunteers (average age 90, some as old as 96) trained their quadriceps for just eight weeks. Their strength exploded—an average gain of 174%, with some individuals more than tripling their starting numbers. Mid-thigh muscle cross-sectional area increased by roughly 9%. More importantly, function improved: tandem gait speed rose nearly 50%. Several participants who had needed canes or arm support to rise from a chair no longer did. Attendance was extraordinarily high; these were not people who were easily motivated by abstract health advice, yet they showed up and pushed themselves.
The study demonstrated something radical for its time: the muscles of people in their tenth decade still possess remarkable plasticity. They respond to progressive overload with substantial gains in strength, size, and real-world mobility—changes that meaningfully restored independence and reduced the burden of frailty. The relative magnitude of adaptation was comparable to what much younger adults experience under similar training.
In short, the experiment proved that chronological age, even extreme age accompanied by chronic disease and institutionalization, does not erase the body’s capacity to grow stronger. Strength training could reverse a large portion of the functional decline once considered inevitable.
