Allergy season 2012 has arrived early, much to the chagrin of the 40 million people who end up sneezing, wiping their runny noses and grappling with itchy, watery eyes, among other symptoms. With researchers declaring spring 2012 the worst allergy season yet, is it possible for the typical sufferer to imagine life without daily doses of Claritin or Zyrtec? The answer, from what I’ve found in practice, is a resounding yes. As a… Read More
Dr. Maura featured in her alumni magazine
I had the great honor and privilege of working with esteemed naturopathic doctor Peter D’Adamo during my four years of medical school. I also helped him launch his first clinic and retail facility in Brooklyn during my first six months after graduation. My medical school alumni magazine did a feature story about Dr. D’Adamo, which also weaves in my own story of how I came to practice medicine and how… Read More
The Latest (and Best) New Reason To Exercise
I’ve been a fan of exercise ever I got my first pair of Adidas and scrambled around the soccer field as a kid. As a competitive tennis player in my teens, I logged hours each day on and off the court, training when I wasn’t playing matches. After a brief foray into the world of rowing crew in my freshman year of college, I decided that the school newspaper was… Read More
The Magic of Green Tea
Full disclosure: I am not a morning person. At all. I wish I were and I have this fantasy that one day (one day!) I will, indeed, become someone who bounds out of bed at 6 in morning, ready to take on the world, or at least a couple-mile jog. Until that day arrives, I am content to ease into the morning at a more civilized hour. As an O-type… Read More

As the latest round of flu has me knocked out (yes, even doctors get sick on occasion), I decided it was worth reposting an abbreviated version of one of my favorite blogs from my med school days about preventively treating my mom for the dreadful flu with one of the best and most powerful supplements around: ARA 6. Why does it work? It supports the gut, where the body’s immune… Read More

Traveling Man: Natural remedies you shouldn’t travel without
My younger brother keeps what you would call an active travel schedule. In the last few months he’s been to: England, Russia, Italy, Poland, Brazil, South Africa, China, Malaysia, Switzerland, Canada and several points around the U.S. And I’m probably forgetting a few. As chief of staff of one of the heads of a major investment bank, the guy is no slouch when it comes to globetrotting. Luckily, he’s constitutionally… Read More
I Can’t Eat Bread? The Conundrum of Kids and Weight Loss
Last month, I saw a handful of pediatric patients brought in by their Orthodox Jewish mothers worried about their children’s weight gain. I have found that the mothers in this community are extraordinarily thoughtful and attentive to needs of their kids. And these women are quite privy to the myriad problems presented by childhood obesity that include pre-diabetes and diabetes, heart disease, hyperlipidemia, sleep apnea, early puberty, and gastrointestinal challenges….
