It will publish on Saturday afternoon and be open for discussion about health related issues including diet, exercise, health and health care issues, as well as, tips on what you can do when there is a medical emergency. Also an opportunity to share and exchange your favorite healthy recipes.
Questions are encouraged and I will answer to the best of my ability. If I can’t, I will try to steer you in the right direction. Naturally, I cannot give individual medical advice for personal health issues. I can give you information about medical conditions and the current treatments available.

What To Cook This Weekend
August is here. The green markets and farm stands teeming with fresh fruits and vegetables. Here are some great recipes to make use of that bounty.
It’s a pizza. It’s a salad. It’s…a pizza with a huge salad on top of it. Who can argue?
This time anchovies are not optional. They’re an integral ingredient here, and it’s worth seeking out quality brands. We love the oil-packed ones from Ortiz, Agostino Recca, and Merro.
A great Sunday Brunch entree can be made year round using frozen corn.
Our ultimate muffins are chock-full of blueberries and have just the right amount of sweetness, plus a gentle tang and tender crumb thanks to sour cream. A dusting of coarse sugar gives them a shimmery top with an addictive crunch.
Normally, you associate brisket with long, slow cooking—maybe on a winter afternoon—but we’re making a case for throwing it on the grill. Hear us out, because it works, especially with this peanut topping. The only thing wintry: Freezing the brisket makes it easier to slice it against the grain, which nullifies its naturally ropy texture and exposes more surface area to the flavorful marinade.
Let the flavors of perfect summer tomatoes shine on this simple-is-best toast.
