We had a wonderful anniversary celebration!🎉 . Quite a few of our long-standing patients attended and other professional associates along with several of the folks who will be involved once the management turns over to FSU. We look forward to this transition in by early June and I will continue seeing patients 4 mornings a week.  I personally am thankful to the Tallahassee community and the loyalty of my patients and I look forward to a little less pressure and the ongoing existence and evolution of Integrative Healthcare !!

Sugar is a huge problem - here is good study on the effects of added sugars.

This is a gut healing diet that many have used for relief from digestive symptoms. Some may also need more testing to address specific problems.

A specific carbohydrate diet (SCD) can ease the symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and other digestive disorders. You eat carbs that are easy to digest.

This is good advice - there are many factors that anyone may find and treat before they're causing symptoms. Insurance may not cover all this but they are not terribly expensive from some discount labs.

What comes to mind when you think of ways to be proactive about your health? If things like a healthy diet, exercise, and getting plenty of sleep pop into your head, you’re certainly not wrong.  But there’s one often overlooked step that, as a Functional Medicine Doctor, I always recommend as o...

Trying to post an article on Low Dose Naltrexone!

If naltrexone was still patentable, you can be certain that the pharmaceutical industry would make sure that every physician was using it to treat patients experiencing chronic pain. It would also probably cost around $24,000 a year. But this drug is 60 years old, and available for about 75 cents pe...

These chewable plant sterols are very safe and are often an effective way to reduce heart disease risk. Certainly worth a try for people with high LDL, small particles and bad family history.

A recently published case series from the University of Chicago underscores the value of plant sterol supplements for managing elevated cholesterol in statin-intolerant patients at moderate to high risk for cardiovascular disease.

These "pharmacy benefit managers" are the bane of my existence!! In addition to all the patient care and documentation, i get demands from them every day that I change medications. Most of them are generic! They don't like NDT - glandular thyroid. They don't want people taking a muscle relaxant and pain meds. ETC ETC. CVS is the worst! I hope the FL legislature can rein them in!

As middlemen between drug manufacturers and health insurers, PBMs decide which prescriptions to cover based on the size of the rebate they will receive.
