Let's Talk Kidneys

Here’s a picture of what a kidney looks like.

Most people are born with a pair, located on each side of the abdominal cavity. Some people are born with only one and as long as nothing goes wrong with that one, it’s not a problem. Then, there are those like me, who have three. Ok, so [...]

Are Your Adrenals Tired?

I heard about a new medical problem today being called Adrenal Fatigue. Also called Hypoadrenia, don’t expect your general practitioner to diagnose it because it’s not a mainstream illness and often used to classify a collection of non-specific medical issues.

A twitter friend just directed me to this article regarding Type 2 Diabetes and the insulin that is commonly used to treat it.
