Hey everybody, Dr. Rick here. Today, I want to discuss a topic that's incredibly close to my heart— the parallels between human evolution and doggy evolution. Why am I bringing this up? Well, I recently came across an eye-opening book titled The Forever Dog. This book delves into the reasons why our canine companions are experiencing shorter lifespans and higher incidences of diseases like cancer and spinal issues. Surprisingly, many of these health problems mirror those we face as humans.
Shared Problems Between Humans and Dogs One of the main tenets of The Forever Dog is that the health issues our dogs face are strikingly similar to our own. You might wonder what these shared problems are. If you've watched any of my other videos, you probably already know: toxicity tops the list.

Hello everyone, Dr. Rick here. We’re continuing our exploration of Highly Sensitive People (HSPs), and today, I want to dive into a topic that frequently affects them: Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). I remember the first time I heard about this condition years ago—I was puzzled, much like you might be right now. So, what exactly is Mast Cell Activation Syndrome? Let’s break it down.
What is Mast Cell Activation Syndrome? In a nutshell, mast cells are crucial components of your immune system. They act as a bridge between your nervous system and immune system. This connection is astonishing when you think about it—there’s a direct line of communication between your body’s defense mechanisms and your brain. This idea is something we've been discussing here in our office for years, and it's thrilling to see science catching up to these concepts! How Mast Cells Function Hey everybody, Dr. Rick here again! Today, I want to talk about a very real and increasingly recognized phenomenon: Highly Sensitive People (HSPs). You might be one yourself or know someone who fits this description. Let’s dive into what it means to be a highly sensitive person and how it impacts our lives
Hey everybody, Dr. Rick here! Today, I want to share with you one of my passionatepursuits in life: Aikido. Aikido is a Japanese martial art created by Morihei Ueshiba inthe early 20th century. What sets Aikido apart from other martial arts is its uniquephilosophy. Aikido literally means "the way of love" or "the way of harmony." This mightseem contradictory for a martial art, but let me explain why it's not.
Hey everybody, Dr. Rick here, and I want to start by addressing something that affects each and every one of us: mental health. With May being National Mental Health Awareness Month, it's the perfect time to dive into this crucial topic.
The state of mental health in our country isn't at its best, and the statistics speak volumes. Anxiety, depression, and various mental health disorders are on the rise, affecting not only adults but our kids too. But why is this happening? One of the key factors we're exploring is environmental toxicity. Yes, you heard me right – environmental toxicity. This encompasses everything we're exposed to, from pesticides like glyphosate (commonly known as Roundup) in our food and water to pharmaceuticals and heavy metals prevalent in our surroundings. Our bodies work tirelessly to detoxify, but these days many people are overwhelmed. But here's the kicker – environmental toxins aren't just about physical health. They're directly linked to mental health issues like anxiety, depression, and even more severe conditions like schizophrenia. Research shows a clear correlation between the levels of toxins in our bodies and the state of our mental well-being.
