Sodas are bad for your teeth - heres why.

Soda is extremely acidic. That acid softens and weakens tooth enamel, essentially opening the door.

Then whether it’s sugar or a sugar substitute, you’re bathing already vulnerable teeth in something that keeps damage going.

Diet soda doesn’t get a free pass. Removing sugar doesn’t remove the acid or the enamel erosion.

And artificial sweeteners raise concerns beyond the mouth, affecting metabolism and overall health.

Sometimes the most powerful health change is removing one habit that’s doing damage you’re not even aware of.

When my wife broke out in painful rashes from the sun, every specialist told us there was nothing to do.

We believed them. We had the same training and read the same journals.

Then she developed psoriasis. The response was the same. More uncertainty. More steroids.

But her symptoms followed a clear pattern, and it was telling a different story.

The “crazy” doctors who actually listened? They found answers our textbooks never taught us. Days. It took DAYS to reverse what we were told was permanent.

That’s when I realized: I’d been a medical gaslighter. And I had no idea.

This system doesn’t just harm people intentionally. Sometimes we uphold it simply by accepting its limits without questioning them.

It’s still dark outside and every part of me is questioning this decision.

The sun isn’t up, the pool is cold, and this is not what I want to do.

I may go in kicking and screaming (or complaining and whining) - but after the fact, I am always happy I did it.

I never regret a workout.

I’m not saying to do it at all costs - but I am saying do it even if you’re not in the mood.

We’ve all heard the basics. Go outside for sunlight. Eat whole foods. Avoid screens at night so you can sleep.

But do you know why??

Because it actually transfers energy into our cells.

Yup, light transfers electrons into your. Mitochondria.

Food does the same thing - literally, it transfers electrons into our body.

I(‘ll never look at a vegetable the same way )

This fascinating conversation with Eleanor Stein explains the science and a term called QUANTUM BIOLOGY.
This is about understanding the biology underneath advice we already give.

You know that moment in a bad relationship when you stop trying to explain yourself better and realize the problem isn’t your communication?

It’s that they can’t or won’t meet you where you are.

Some medical relationships work the same way.

If you’ve clearly described your symptoms, asked reasonable questions, and still feel dismissed, that’s not a skill issue.

ITS JUST NOT A GOOD FIT

And just like any other unhealthy relationship, the answer isn’t trying harder.

It’s setting boundaries or leaving.

Fibromyalgia is real. The symptoms are real. The suffering is real.
What I challenge is stopping the conversation there.

Too often, fibromyalgia becomes the label given when testing runs out, not when answers are found. Medications may help manage symptoms, but they don’t explain why the body is in distress in the first place. Pain, brain fog, fatigue, and inflammation are signals, not endpoints.

That’s why language in the exam room matters. Certain phrases sound reassuring, but they make it harder to get deeper investigation.

I created a PDF that breaks down the 5 common red flag phrases patients often hear and show you how to reframe them.

There will always be different opinions about mammograms, and that’s okay.

Guidelines change, risk is personal, and individual context matters.

The goal isn’t to follow someone else’s opinion blindly, but to make an informed decision that aligns with your health history and values. ❤️

Medicine isn’t a debate between expertise and experience. It’s meant to be a collaboration.

Population data shows what happens most often. Lived experience shows what is happening here and now.

When one is treated as more valid, the full picture is lost and medical gaslighting happens.

I was on the news sharing a few simple reminders that still matter when people are gathering indoors.

If you feel sick, staying home is important. Most people appreciate it more than they realize.

When people are close together, airflow makes a difference. Opening a window, even briefly, or running an air purifier helps reduce how much circulates in the room. Using serving utensils instead of shared finger food also goes a long way.

And yes, handwashing still counts.

This is about reducing risk with small, reasonable choices that protect everyone in the room.

This is what nervous system regulation actually looks like.

You dont need fancy equipment. Just listen to your body when it needs rest.

Rest is part of how I stay clear, steady, and able to do my work well. Today it happens to include a short nap and two very attentive cat assistants.

Most people get stuck choosing sides.
Blind faith in labs or blind trust in influencers.

The real work lives in the middle.

My Newsletter - Medical Middle Ground - is for people who want to understand what normal labs actually mean, where medicine is strong, where it’s limited, and how to think clearly without dismissing symptoms or abandoning science.

If you’re navigating this middle ground , comment “NEWSLETTER” below.

When people ask me about weight loss, I usually slow the conversation down. The scale is not the foundation of health. The gut is.

Gut health influences far more than digestion.

It affects immune function, energy levels, and mood. Supporting the gut with fiber, probiotics, fermented foods, and thoughtful sugar reduction helps the whole system function more efficiently.

Weight often becomes a downstream effect, not the primary focus.
