How many boys will die? That’s the elephant in the FDA’s living room.

American parents…brace yourselves...

Dear Pharmacist,

Sometimes after I take Viagra, my vision turns blueish-grey and it gets blurry. Is this this an expected side effect?  I can’t ask my doctor because he may stop prescribing it for me.

I just got back from my third trip to Jamaica this year, and I have some terrific news for you!

Back in March I told you about my first trip when I met Ivy Harris, a native Maroon healer. She introduced me to herbs that I had never heard of before...

Dear Pharmacist,

My father and brother both died of prostate cancer.  I am still fine, but at age 45, I want to do everything I can now to avoid prostate cancer. Truthfully, I am terrified.  I’m a faithful reader, and I value your opinion. Can you give me more information?

What are 1 in 6 American men diagnosed with?  Prostate cancer; and it is serious stuff, as it claimed almost 30,000 lives last year. 

You may be familiar with the old saying that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Here’s another truism – the key to a man’s health and his enjoyment of life, particularly as he ages, is his prostate.  The treatment for cancer (usually the removal of the prostate) is not pleasant and has various side effects, particularly loss of libido and sexual performance.  Now there is a news of a discovery that may help doctors determine how aggressive the prostate cancer is and the most appropriate treatment.

Are your hormones out of balance?

Does your life feel like a song played badly out of tune?

If so, the problem may have to do with imbalances in your hormones, which are wreaking havoc on your body and mind.

There is one hormone in particular I am going to focus on today, and it could be at the root of your problems.  I will share with you 12 tips you can start using immediately to begin rebalancing your hormones and bring your life back into tune.

In recent years, more and more evidence has emerged, showing that certain chemicals are causing damage to the endocrine system of both wildlife and humans. Male infertility, in particular, is on the rise, and about 250,000 fewer boys have been born in the last 30 years in the U.S. and Japan.

Scientists are linking these phenomena to an accumulation of “gender-bending” toxins called endocrine disruptors.

I get asked all the time about whether I still believe vitamin E is useful for supporting your prostate and possibly preventing cancer. Doubt has been raised by a recent study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association that was so poorly designed it doesn’t pass the sniff test.

Have you ever wondered why there seem to be so many advertisements for erectile dysfunction (ED) medication - Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra - on television and in the magazines you are reading?  I did, and began an investigation that would ultimately become my Doctoral dissertation.  The reason is quite simple – there is a lot of erectile dysfunction (ED).  Over 30 million men in the United States suffer from it.  ED affects over 50% of men between the ages of 40 and 70 and the incidence of complete ED triples between those ages.  Even more disconcerting, experts expect cases of ED to more than double over the next 25 years.
