Here we are again in February 2026, where in the U.S., we recognize February as Heart Health Month every year. Every February for the past decade or more I have written on cardiovascular disease being the number one killer of men and women worldwide. I keep hoping this statistic changes based on all the new […]
Happy New Year. The beginning of each year marks a new beginning for us all. A time to reflect on the past year, our successes and failures, what worked in life and what did not work, people in our lives who enriched it and people in our lives who disrupted it. The most important thing […]
Science and religion have often been considered mutually exclusive. Science is investigating the natural world through experimentation and observation to answer questions of “how”. Religion is based on faith, things you cannot see and often are meant to explain the “why” on questions related to meaning, purpose and morality. During this season of Christmas, I […]
Every November in America, we celebrate Thanksgiving. The U.S. holiday’s origins are often linked to a 1621 harvest feast shared by the Plymouth colonists and the Wampanoag people. It is a time to celebrate the harvest and blessings of the past year. It is a time when families come together. It marks the beginning of […]

As the title implies, nitric oxide is foundational for regenerative medicine therapies but also for allowing our own cells and tissues to repair and regenerate to prevent age related disease. Many of you have followed my hair transplant journey with great interest and enthusiasm. As many of you know, I also practice what I preach […]
Last month, I spent 8 days in Italy on a family vacation. We rented a house in Tuscany in the hills overlooking Cortona and the Tuscan valley. We traveled all along the western coast of Italy, spent several days in Rome, Florence, Pisa, Forte de Marmi, Napoli and Pompei. This was my fourth trip to […]
June is designated as Men’s Health Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness and promoting good health practices for men. It is a time for men to prioritize their physical, mental, and sexual health. Over the past 30 years, we have witnessed a feminization of men and masculinity criticized and even demonized.

Did you know that cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women? This disease affects nearly half of the women over the age of 20 and only increases with age.
