1. Therapy I’m committing more time to… There is a lot of talk about Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) these days. It is a way to subject a person to higher levels of oxygen under high pressure to increase the oxygen content of the blood. It is known for its use with scuba divers suffering with…
1. Cool concept I learned (or at least was reminded of) this week… I listened to a really good interview with Ken Honda, the Japanese best-selling self-development author and money expert. (He was on the School of Greatness podcast with Lewis Howes, which you can listen to here.) He had some interesting, neat, and quirky…
1. Inspiring clip I watched this week… One of my best buddies sent me a 1-minute clip of entrepreneur Ed Mylett in an interview talking about something that inspired him. I loved it! I watched it several times, and it hit me just as hard each time. I can’t imagine anyone not being moved at…

1. Question I have been getting a lot this week… Many people have been asking about the new COVID booster shots that are being recommended. I have to remind them that drugs (of any kind) are out of my scope of practice and that I cannot make any recommendations. I usually then share some data…
1. Video I watched this week that was eye-opening… As we roll into fall, everything pumpkin is starting to show up. Starbucks has introduced three new pumpkin drinks. What people do not realize is how much sugar is in these drinks. Their Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino has a terrifying 65 grams of total sugar. That is…
1. Entertaining (time-lapsed) video I made this week… A patient brought me a celery plant a couple of weeks ago. I asked how often I need to water it. She said when it starts to droop, water it. Well, the other day I came out, and it was COMPLETELY drooped. Oops! I gave it water,…
