Make healthy choices

The American diet is a neurologist's nightmare. With all the processed foods, microwaved foods, overcooked foods, and artificial drinks we consume, it's no wonder that a third of Americans are diabetic or pre-diabetic and Americans have the most health problems on the planet!

I have sought some of the best health experts in the nation to help me and those I love. I share what I've learned here. (See medical disclaimer below.)

How to quickly overcome a cold:

At first sign of cold or flu (nose, throat, head),
-  Zicam treatment
-  Lots of water so you go to the bathroom a lot
-  Try to sleep through the whole day – aim for at least 10 hours

I've nipped a cold in the bud this way. A day and a half later, no more symptoms!
