Ways to avoid getting sick. How is it that when the body is exposed to a germ (virus or bacteria or other pathogen) not everybody gets sick? Scientists concluded that the average human body contains approximately 37.2 trillion cells. The human body also contains trillions of microorganisms — outnumbering human cells by 10 to 1.

Sedentary life-styles of today are at epidemic levels and are contributing to many neuromusculoskeletal problems as well as a principal contributor to the highest incidence of Type 2 Diabetes and Insulin resistance in history.

Today they have two choices: the customary drugs and surgery professions OR the natural and alternative professions; chiropractors being the most formally educated of this latter group.

In the healthcare world today we find that the career trend in medicine is to push most doctors into specialty care. A specialist is someone who knows more and more about less and less, and this is all good except that when too many doctors are becoming specialists, who is going to be the family doctor?

I recommended a consultation with a couple naturopathic doctors for their advice. In his case, the cancer was already too advanced and medical care was…

Happy 1st Anniversary docMIKE Blog! What is a perfect 10? Well, for me, its being on top of my game.

It is also getting involved with wellness counselling that brings my patients up a…
