Our Why
I was living a hectic life (like most people these days), so I wasn’t eating healthily. As a result, I was developing some health problems that caused me to look for answers.
I found lots of health-related sites written by doctors and health professionals with a significant amount of valuable information.
There were two major problems with this information:
- I am not a doctor, so my knowledge of technical, medical jargon is minimal. Have you noticed how difficult it to read many of these sites? It is really heavy going, but I am persistent. I sit there with a bunch of browser tabs open looking up google and medical glossaries and Wikipedia to try to figure out what these articles are telling me.
- Have you ever noticed that these medical sites are not very practical? They are great at telling you about the problems, but not many give you practical information about solutions.
It was obvious to me of the need for a site that would put all of this information together. Now busy people like me can get the information that we need to live healthy lives.
My team and I sit down every day and do the research that makes much of this practical health information available to the many busy people who need it.
Everyone’s journey to better long-term health will be different. We understand that there is no “one size fits all”.
So the best way to use this site is to take a look at where you are now and choose a category that interests you.
Every article is organized with logical and concise headings, and finishes with a brief summary. After a brief skim over the article you will quickly see if it will be useful for you.
