Praxiom Infographics & Other News

Ron Krebs calls his organization Praxiom and his products are booklets with infographics about healthy living with plant-based nutrition. This particular example reflects the theme of this website. But there are many more and they provide welcome food for thought and in many cases valueable information about how to live healthy based on plant-based nutrition. It is posted in our useful link…

Being Healthy beats Preventive Medicine

It is a general mistake in our culture to think medicine has anything to do with health. It does not. At best it is what you do when you are ill to help your body recover from whatever injury or affliction you may be suffering from. Health is about your body’s ability to recover by itself, and that is generally a function of nutrition and lifestyle, not pills, lotions, potions or other medical…

Whole Foods, Plant-Based all over again

Lifestyle Medicine could be so much more

This is only the beginning. Lifestyle Medicine must be understood in historical context, i.e. it originated within an American healthcare system that remains dominated by the allopathic umbrella concept of the AMA, and therefore limited. The key insight that gave Lifestyle Medicine legitimacy was the insight that most of the chronic diseases that are the leading causes of death today are…

The SHARAN Connection

For a long time, I have been following the work of SHARAN-India and its founder, Dr. Nandita Shah. But the clincher came for me during the Covid madness. Early on, based on the data from the Diamond Princess, I was clear that whatever it was, was not much of a threat, unless you were already old and sick, and as a healthy 70-year old I was not too worried about it. I was more interested in the…

Medical Reformation

Leave it to Jeff Nelson at Vegsource! He has done so many wonderful interviews over the years, and his YouTube Channel has been a very important resource for many. Jeff has been particularly good at filltering out nonsense – he has a very sensitive bulshittometer, and there is plenty of that to go around. The beautiful gift we have in our Whole Foods, Plant-Based and Lifestyle Medicine…

Paradigm Change Again

Premier Heart’s Multifunction CardioGramTM (MCG) is part of a paradigm change in Healthcare. I purposely use the term healthcare, not medicine. Healthcare should be 80% lifestyle, including nutrition, and 20% medicine. Medicine is for when something went wrong. Lifestyle Healthcare is about ensuring things go right, and that is why I prefer this term over Lifestyle Medicine. You want to stay away…

MCG and Lifestyle Medicine

Lifestyle Medicine is rooted in the notion that the first frontier in healthcare is simply to live in a healthy way. Ideally, Lifestyle, including nutrition, sleep hygiene, rest, relaxation, exercise, prayer and meditation and healthy relationships are all part of the picture. That should be 80% of what makes up “health,” and for the remaining 20% you might sometimes need a doctor. Our biggest…

Cooking #WFPB for Less

When I went to college, I was fortunate enough to end up sharing a floor in a house with three bedrooms and a kitchen, above a photography store in Leiden, Holland. The two other students, a boy and a girl were almost never there, for they spent most of their time with some “significant other,” and I had the kitchen mostly to myself. Now I was raised vegetarian, with something like vegetables,…

The Heart of the Matter

Cardiometabolic dysfunction in all forms, is still the single biggest health threat in our society, and it is a lifestyle disease. It is the core issue in most chronic disease. Of course we do have a bad problem with Fentanyl, however the most recent year the CDC reports is 2021, and opioid deaths were 71,000 and deaths from heart issues are typically around 700,000 in recent years, and presently…

Restarting #WFPB Jumpstarts

It seems that healthcare 3.0 is the theme these days. Different people mean different things with it, but the trend is towards more DPC-type approaches, and away from institutionalized medicine, particularly because of the Covid/mRNA injection scandal. The country is more divided by the day, with Florida Surgeon General Joe Ladapo warning against the vaccine for the most part, while most states…

Taxonomy of Diet and Nutrition

Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food. Hippocrates Nutrition is a science, or at least it should be: nutrition science. Traditional nutrition, that “accepted” nutrition is really a patchwork of historical accidents. The discoveries of vitamin C and B1 were accidents (scurvy and beriberi respectively). amd [protein was thought an essential nutrient mostly because it was identified…

It's the Envelope, Stupid!

It’s the Envelope, Stupid!

We keep lamenting the amounts of energy used by buildings, but it’s like the proverbial weather in New England: nobody does anything about it. The quote, by the way, may go back not to Mark Twain, but to Charles Dudley Warner who was an editor at the Hartford Courant. Be that as it may, buildings are supposed to protect us against the elements, and they are generally fairly good about keeping you…
