Common symptoms of Low-T Low energy… depression… and the dreaded “man boobs”… These are common complaints I hear from men at my clinic. I ask them if they also have trouble sleeping, a low sex drive and can’t work out like they used to. When they say yes, I almost always know what’s going on… low testosterone. Other low testosterone …
There is a new natural therapy for erectile dysfunction. That comes as a big surprise to most patients who suffer from ED — because they’ve been told again and again their only solution is a Big Pharma booster like Viagra, or that they should just accept their condition as a part of aging. Common ED Beliefs ED has become so …
When Glenn Frey, a co-founder and driving force behind ’70s supergroup the Eagles, died on January 18, I wasn’t just saddened by the loss. I was deeply concerned about the manner of his death. News reports said Frey died from a combination of “complications” from rheumatoid arthritis (RA), one of the most debilitating chronic diseases. RA is an inflammatory autoimmune …
Here at the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine, I use a few inexpensive, natural ways to safely and effectively raise my patients’ testosterone levels. I’ve found one of the best solutions is an overlooked micronutrient you’ll never hear about from mainstream medicine. I’m talking about the rare mineral, boron. Boron arrived on our planet billions of years ago via cosmic …
Are you a baseball fan? Even if you’re not, you have to admire New York Mets pitcher Bartolo Colon. His comeback has been nothing short of miraculous — thanks to the amazing healing power of stem cells and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. PRP utilizes platelets from an athletes’ own blood to rebuild a damaged tendon or cartilage. I began offering …
A low level of testosterone (“low-T”) is a huge problem for my older male patients… and it goes far beyond a decline in sexual drive. How low-T affects your health… Low-T associated with aging also causes decreased muscle mass and bone density, reduced insulin resistance and energy, and even depression. But going to a “low-T” clinic is not going to …
Men are from Mars. Women are from Venus. This one book from best-selling author John Gray built a publishing empire. Even if you’ve never read it, I’m sure you’ve heard of it. Released in 1993, this book went on to sell more than 50 million copies and is considered the “highest ranked work of non-fiction of the 1990s.” When I …
In the not-so-distant future, I see a world where all the chronic diseases that plague us today will be cured before they’ve even begun. That may sound like science fiction, but it’s not. In fact, it’s already happening with a revolutionary stem-cell treatment developed by oncologist and stem-cell pioneer Dr. Dipnarine Maharaj right here in South Florida. And that’s why I’ve made …
I recently started practicing “telemedicine” with my clinical team at my Palm Beach Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine. It’s the same doctor’s visit experience as you’ve always known it… with one big difference. It takes place over a secure, two-way video platform. All you need is a computer, smartphone, or tablet with a webcam and an Internet connection. That’s it. If …
I went to a sporting goods store with my son last weekend and found it pretty much impossible to buy him a sports jersey that wouldn’t poison him with gender-bending chemicals. Almost everything these days is made of synthetic material or some new "techno" fiber that "wicks away moisture." It took me half an hour to find something made from …
Most doctors will tell you to avoid unhealthy crash diets. It’s not rocket science. Desperate weight-loss tactics, such as skipping meals, extreme low-calorie diets or taking strenuous exercise with little fuel in your body, are perhaps the most useless ways of trying to get back into shape. That’s because if you repeatedly gain and lose weight you will end up …
It used to be that whenever osteoporosis was mentioned, it immediately evoked the image of an elderly woman, stooped and fragile. But as the years go by, I’ve observed that an increasing number of my male patients have developed this dreadful disease that causes shrinkage of bone tissue – and they are often shocked by the diagnosis. Most of my …
I treat adults of all ages at my wellness clinic and, at some point during our consultations, we usually talk about the ‘S’ word. The advice in today’s letter is for men – but if you’re a woman, just imagine you’re listening in so you can share it with the man in your life. First of all, from a wellness …
When I entered my practice, one of the first things I wanted to do, a few years before the A4M (American Academy of Anti-Aging) came along, was to help reverse what was happening to my male patients. Now I’m taking it a step further. It will be part of the purpose of my new Palm Beach Institute for Wellness and …
Did you ever wonder why women can shop all day, and for men it drives them nuts? Did you know there are hormonal reasons for that? It’s not just culture, it’s evolution. Women have traditionally been responsible for doing the gathering. They get a surge of the feel-good hormone serotonin, and it gives them energy. The more they shop and …
Here’s something to remember as we get into summer with Independence Day, picnics, ice cream and other summer indulgences. This is a very important tip for losing weight, but few people seem to know about it . . . You can cut calories and still gain weight. You can work out until you pass out and still have that spare …
What’s a guy to do? It seems like everything you eat or drink is going to hurt your prostate. Part of the problem is that in today’s world our bodies aren’t getting enough of the nutrients we need to protect ourselves. Today I want to tell you about one of the simplest ways you can keep your prostate healthy and …
Sometimes my patients’ eyes glaze over when I talk to them about dangerous chemicals in the environment – especially when I talk about bisphenol-A. You probably know it better as BPA, the estrogenic, gender-bending chemical. But before your eyes glaze over too, here’s something everyone can relate to: Breast cancer and prostate cancer are directly linked to BPA. The details are …
