Dear Readers,

Welcome the May 2020 issue of TotalHealth Magazine.

Jacob Teitelbaum, MD, presents, part three in his series on Fibromyalgia. This month he discusses neurologic triggers. The biggest offender is mold. Molds are like a weapon. They expel toxins into the air to keep other types of mold away. High levels must be addressed, but can be quite expensive to test for and to mediate. Therefore, if you are in the market for a new house or apartment, it is wise to spend the money to test for mold. It could save you tens of thousands of dollars in the long run.

Essential Fatty Acids, is the topic this month for Professor Gene Bruno, MS, MHS. He explains the different types of fatty acids and why we need them. As their name states, they are essential. Even the so-called nonessential acids have a benefit to our health.

Ann Louise Gittleman, PhD, CNS, brings us the final segment of Smart Recipes. This month she gives us recipes for dressings and sweets. So many dressings and desserts have unhealthy ingredients; these are a wonderful healthful alternative.

Gloria Gilbere, CDP, DAHom, PhD, brings us, 24-Carrot Greens Pesto Recipe. Most of us only use the orange root of the carrot, and toss the greens in the compost bin. Even though the greens are somewhat bitter, Dr. Gloria shows us ways to mix the greens with sweeter foods so we can reap the healthy benefits.

This month Shawn Messonnier, DVM, discusses the “Y” Herbs For Pets. Yarrow, Yellow dock and Yucca all have properties that may help your pet with arthritis and inflammation. They provide a safer alternative than longterm use of corticosteroids.

Thank you to our authors, readers, and advertisers for making TotalHealth possible.

Wishing you a safe spring as the country emerges from stay-at-home orders. Remember, this doesn’t mean the pandemic is over, and we all have a responsibility to do our part to keep our fellow humans across the globe from the ravages of this virus.

Best in health.
