I was very excited this year to hear So Delicious, one of the dairy-free brands of Turtle Mountain, was launching two new holiday flavors: Nog and Mint Chocolate. Since I won’t touch soy or anything containing it with a ten-foot straw, I have long wished that there were healthier alternatives available to good ol’ eggnog.
This time of year, it’s not unusual for there to be a glut of posts related to maintaining weight during the holidays. Most share the same advice that’s been shared year after year after year.

The truth is that the average age of patients who see dermatologists for acne ranges from 20-26 years, and the anti-zit business brings in more […]
“Wow … you don’t LOOK like a diabetic!” I hear that comment frequently and always have to stop and wonder, “What the heck does a diabetic look like?” I know the statement is intended to be a compliment, and it’s one I appreciate, but I confess the comment offends me. There, I said it. Being told I don’t “look like a […]
I’m often asked which artificial sweeteners and sugar substitutes I prefer. The answer, quite simply, is few of them because most create a wide variety of negative side effects. The newest, Splenda (Sucralose), has its own dangerous history and set of dangerous consequences. The dangers of Sucralose and the side effects of Sucralose cannot be […]
