Andrew Almazan PhD (age 17) and MD (age 21) specializes in helping gifted children, and in protecting them from those who would level them with drugs and oppressive social policies. He sounds an international alarm! He also has important ideas about IQ testing and why we should not give it up, as California has done. Via interactive video, I will address his First International Conference in Mexico on Gifted Children May 30, 2016. An important event!
Kelly Brogan MD is a shining star of a psychiatrist! You will want to know her!

You are guaranteed to benefit from spending time with her.

We are constantly bombarded by mixed messages that a given nutritional supplement is good for us one day, and the next day it’s not. With more than 30,000 dietary supplements in the marketplace and new studies coming out every day, it’s no wonder we all feel confused and overwhelmed.

Which common nutrient depletions are of particular concern for women, especially during pregnancy?
What nutrients do babies need that they might not be getting from your breast milk and that are not in your prenatal vitamin?
What nutrient-dense foods are you avoiding that could protect your body and brain?
How nutritional deficits in children can impact behavior, attention and intelligence quotient.

Dr. Dudley Danoff MD, a world renowned urologist returned to the program for the eighth time (www.TheUltimateGuidetoMaleSexualHeath.com). For everything you’ve wanted to know about PREMATURE EJACULATION and ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION please listen to this show! Dr. Danoff and Dr. Diana discussed what’s “normal,” how to get checked, what helps, medications that may work, and the influence of stress/anxiety.

Listening to this program and getting his book could be life changing for your sexual relationship!
