Hello Optimal Health Seekers I’m inviting you to join me in a multi-community cleanse between Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays (and all the other holidays during this season that offer opportunities to indulge). Some may think “Life is short and therefore…. I’ll eat and drink whatever I please.” Others may have come to the conclusion that eating less and basically swearing off alcohol as we age makes for a better day, a happier belly and a more functional brain. Either way, it’s good to have options. Let’s meet in person for a pre-cleanse strategy session from noon to 1 PM Saturday December 2 at the Heritage Cafe downtown. I’ll get there early to try to get the sofa area! If you choose to help yourself stay lean and clean, let’s do another round of 5 days of ProLon fast-mimicking diet, followed by 5 days of Jamie Troxel’s delicious raw food service. Day One of ProLon will start for me on Thursday December 7 and go through Monday December 11. This will segue nicely into Jamie’s 5-day offering Dec 12-16. You can...

Let’s take a pause between Thanksgiving and Christmas feasts to shrink our tummies a bit a reel in that sweet tooth. I recommend 5 days of ProLin since the ingredients are high quality and the program is well thought out. If that doesn’t work for you consider 5 days of warm Master Cleanse (fresh lemonade with maple syrup and a pinch of cayenne pepper). Contact me if you want a ProLon kit from my office for $187. Best price is to buy 3 from the Vitamin/Supplement section of this site ($140 each)

Lately I have enjoyed a mini cleanse developed over 25+ years by Dr. Valter Longo. It’s a 5-day program that allows for a fasted state (ketosis, autophagy) without having to go without food, called ProLon (as in prolong your life, and a tribute to founder Dr. Longo). Water only fasting for more than a day, which I rarely recommend, basically requires resting quietly in a cave. For 10 days this June I’ve combined this 5-day fasting-mimicking diet with a kit available through my website here: https://prolonfmd.com/products/prolon-professionals followed by Jamie Troxel’s yummy raw food cleanse — also a 5 day program. If you’d like to join the group, the dates will be June 14-23. Please call Jamie directly at (907) 209-8293 to arrange for pick up and payment. This will be a splendid treat and gift to yourself — no thinking about food for 10 days because everything you need will be provided. Very doable. And the benefits will be immediate and lasting. Email me at to get on the list for the group get-togethers — likely Saturday(s) at 4...

Greetings Optimal Health Seekers! I have been thinking about this year’s spring cleanse for several weeks. Maybe call it rebooting an excellent lifestyle or perhaps you can relate to wanting to take a closer look at day-to-day health habits. You don’t have to go anywhere for this personal retreat. But you can easily take it on the road if you have travel plans that can finally hatch! What I have to offer is modifiable, and has 3 basic levels of commitment — per your evaluation of need for fine-tuning your health.
Opinion: Why I got vaccinated It’s the most responsible approach to the health of your neighbors and fellow community members. published in the Juneau Empire, Thursday, March 4, 2021 12:15pm A year ago, the Empire graciously printed my opinion piece “Why I’m Wearing a Mask.” I’ll tell you, one reason I got the COVID vaccines is because wearing a mask is getting old, and I want to do my part in helping us get past necessary mask mandates. Eventually, we will be safe to go maskless, but not yet. It would be beyond horrible to inadvertently be an asymptomatic carrier who infected a more vulnerable neighbor, patient or family member, who then suffered from getting sick, becoming a “long-hauler” or worse. Some say getting a vaccine is a personal choice — of course it is. However if you opt out of the vaccine then you’re responsible to not be a potential disease vector, which means staying home (not feasible if you can’t work from home) or taking all the usual precautions when in public. Many cultures, for many centuries, have...
