I love culinary uses for medicine!
Hey men - like mushrooms, eat more of them.
Prostate will thank you and helps prevent other cancers.

By Geo Espinosa - For prevention-oriented men, the defensible recommendation is dietary: three or more mushroom meals per week across varied species. Shiitake, oyster, maitake, and king oyster are the antioxidant-dense choices. The nutritional upside is real — high fiber, low glycemic index, very ...

Oh the power of vitamin D!
Boost your immune system, get your mood in check and fight off cancer - all from just one little nutrient.
Moreover, nature is so cool, you can go outside into the SUN and get it. Wow! You'll need bare skin without sunscreen to do it. Darker skin tones will need more time in that glorious glow than lighter tones to get this nutrient absorbed. No worries, vitamin D deficiency is way worse to your health than the risk of skin cancer. But don't be a n***y and burn yourself either, sunscreen does have its place. Oh... and don't go running inside right away to wash up either. Allow a few minutes for your body to convert the sun on your skin to the hormone needed to thrive.
For those that are never going into the sun, yippee for supplements of vitamin D3 available in softgels and liquids, which should be taken with a meal.

Geo Espinosa, ND, LAc - Vitamin D is low-cost, low-risk, and supported by strong science. It plays a big role in aging, prostate health, and immune defense, and adding it to your wellness routine is one of the best steps you can take to protect your health as you age.

Many supplements can be swallowed as pills or taken in chewable or even powdered forms. Try a good old fashioned glass of orange juice instead of a sports drink or 'vitamin' water. There is no reason any of us should be low in vitamin C - its so easy to get enough.

ObjectiveRespiratory infections (RIs) are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, and vitamin C may play a vital role in the risk of RIs. However, high-q...
