OK, so it isn’t really a car.   Recently, I was going over the finances and noticed that we had been spending a lot of money on maintaining my car.  I have an older 240 Volvo station wagon, with about 150,000 miles on it.  It is in good condition.  I take good care of it, […]

What?  Do I mean to tell you that I don’t recommend exercise for most people?  Yes, that’s exactly what I mean.  Think about it – what comes to mind when you say the word exercise?  Do words like, work, sweat, pain, drudgery, boredom, effort, and so on come up for you?  Unless you’re an accomplished athlete […]

Darn near!  As I have written in previous posts, when I initially heard the claims about what MMS could do, and some of the wide menu of health concerns it could improve, I was very skeptical.  In fact, a few years back, I heard about MMS and put it on my “too good to be […]

OK, I didn’t really kiss the wart.  But it is gone.  Let me back up for a minute here.  When I was 13 years old I badly injured the tip of a finger on my left hand.  My fingernail turned a few ugly colors and eventually fell off. When it grew back, it had this ugly, […]

Yes, I believe there is.  At www.myhealthoptimizer.com we eat our own cooking.  Let me share my story with you.  It is how I found a way to resolve my own severe lower back pain and sciatica many years ago.  The solution I found is one I have not seen described elsewhere.  However, it has worked for […]

Obviously the big health insurance companies! And they’re spending enormous sums of our money to convince all of us that a Single-Payer system would be terrible for us. That’s right! They take a healthy chunk of the money we pay them for our health care and use it to prevent us from getting a better […]

Yes, there are a few simple principles you can employ to improve the results you get with the goals that you set.  Surprisingly, some of these do not seem to be common knowledge.  Once you know them they are really simple and easy to use.  But don’t let that fool you – just ’cause they are […]

We all know the old adage that anything that seems too good to be true almost always is.  And most of the time that turns out to be the case. However, I am delighted to report that so far, MMS seems to be an exception to that rule.  I have only been using it for […]

So just what is the straight skinny on Reproductive Hormone Balance, anyway? And does this subject apply just to women, or do men need concern themselves with it, as well? In this post I will cover all of the critical points that you need to know to manage this aspect of your health. And yes, […]

There sure is a lot of buzz on the Internet about MMS these days. Everywhere I turn, it seems someone is promoting it as the way to deal with this illness or that. So, is it safe? Is it effective? Is it an appropriate treatment for the very wide variety of health conditions and challenges […]

People are often appalled that I do not support the American Cancer Society, or any number of other non-profit organizations that are centered around “cancer research and prevention”. They say, “What is wrong with you? I thought you were concerned about health and wanted to do all that you could to promote good health. So how come you don’t support these organizations?”

It’s true that I am dedicated to promoting optimal health, and it’s also true that I do not support most of these organizations. That may seem like a contradiction, but I don’t think it is. Here’s why:

Sounds like a totally ridiculous question, doesn’t it. But wait a minute – maybe it’s not. In fact, a large percentage of the people in this country do brush their teeth with industrial waste. They routinely brush their teeth with toothpastes that have been “enriched” with fluoride. Sounds innocent and reasonable enough, right? Well, it […]

We all “know” that making alcohol for fuel from corn is a terrible idea, right? It costs too much, it takes too much energy, blah, blah, blah. I think you’d be hard pressed to find very many people in the environmental movement these days who would dispute that. But what if it’s not true?

How my job almost killed me and then my wife and cat saved me.

I’m honestly not sure why I decided to post this.  But here goes… We live with two cats, Mickie and Darci.  Mickie, is a rather smallish “smoke” colored kitty.  He is generally super affectionate and in many ways behaves like a loving puppy.  But he can be a bit hyper and he spooks fairly easily. […]

We all know that stress can damage our health.  But there is more to know about the relationship between stress and health.  The latest and best research confirms that it is particularly stress that is either unrelieved for long periods of time, or that we feel powerless to respond to that does the real damage. Look […]
