Body, Soul and Spirit: Seeking Complete Health

A personal, reflective, and “optional” philosophical note from Dr. Tague

Humans are complex beings.  And that is an understatement!  What is it that makes us who we are?  Are we just a bag of skin containing chemicals and chemical reactions?  Or, is there an immaterial, “can’t touch it” aspect to man that makes us unique as individuals?  And could the immaterial part of man influence our health and sense of well-being?

Trim, Fit, & Healthy in 2021… It’s Never Been More Important!

Has your scale steadily increased since COVID-19? You’re not alone. Gaining weight this past year has been epidemic, causing major setbacks to health and happiness. Many dine-in restaurants closing, gyms shutting down, and unprecedented stress has resulted in a lot of stress eating and comfort foods! Consequences were inevitable.

COVID-19 & Survival

Surviving COVID-19

If you are like me, you’ve never been more interested in your immune system and its ability to fight off infections. COVID-19 has gotten our attention! How peculiar that the same virus can cause an infection with few or no symptoms in some, but result in multi-organ failure and death in others! It’s the same virus, in the same species, but the hosts of that virus are NOT the same.

The question we are all asking is if we are in the group with a killer immune system that can knock out coronavirus as if it were a common cold, or are we more vulnerable to life-threatening complications from COVID-19. The answer to that question applies to other viral respiratory infections, including influenza. Let me explain.

A wise plan for 2020: Be Trim, Fit, & Healthy! 3 Keys for Weight Loss in the New Year by Rick Tague, M.D., M.P.H. & T.M.

Is your scale “creeping” upwards? You’re not alone. Unwanted weight gain is epidemic and is often devastating to health and happiness. 80% of Americans are now overweight, with more people joining the list each year. Calories from food end up as fat (what we DON’T want), instead of energy (what we DO want). Calories have become a “bad guy”!

Look at common efforts to avoid calories, our source of energy:

  • Low-calorie snacks cost more if they have FEWER calories.
  • Dieters are obsessed with AVOIDING calories.
  • Menus and labels list calories so we can LIMIT calories.
