by Dr. Dennis Clark

Building muscle and maintaining lean body mass are considerably simpler than most people think. Popular workout programs and advice from trainers and so-called fitness gurus fail completely to consider the two most important aspects of effective strength training – i.e., time under load (TUL) and recovery time. Research on optimizing these variables shows that the most effective muscle building workouts are easier, faster, and safer than ever, for all ages. Strength training is crucial for overall health and longevity. Here is what you should know for doing it right. [Read more…]

Foods That Speed Up Aging

by Dr. Dennis Clark 3 Comments

aging and grilled foodsEating is wonderful. Except when it isn’t. Such as when it exposes you to the monumentally dangerous substances that scientists call advanced glycation end products (AGEs).

Unfortunately, scientific jargon about AGEs has kept this all-important topic from becoming a popular subject on social media and at parties, picnics and family gatherings. We clearly need a new term that the public can understand and talk about intelligently.

Since AGEs represent oxidation gone amok, and since oxidation is a burning of sorts, I propose that we refer to AGEs as Burnt Crap in Foods (BCFs). There, isn’t that better? Now let’s delve into BCFs to see what they do, where they are, and how to minimize damage to your health from them. [Read more…]
