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
Immunity: It’s a Gut Thing
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
New Year’s Detox with Dr. Henninger
Tired? Bloated? Feeling the effects of holiday parties? Been trying to lose those last ten pounds for what seems like forever?

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….

MOM VS. THE FLU
When I was growing up, my two brothers and I rarely got sick with the flu. Sure, we had the occasional nasty cold and strep throat but we never battled much with the flu that tended to wipe out large swaths of our classmates once the winter months set in. My mom would always credit the strong family immune system so it was with great surprise that I started receiving… Read More
