Keep Juicing Healthy

Keep Juicing Healthy

By Sean Michael Hall, L.Ac.

Juicing can be a tasty, enjoyable and nutritious part of a healthy lifestyle. However, some guidelines are important to make sure you are juicing in a way that is truly healthy for you. As most of you know, juicing only fruit can result in a large spike in blood sugar levels. And some have constitutions or digestive systems that make juicing less enjoyable and less healthy, especially at certain times of the year. Following these simple guidelines will allow most people to enjoy fresh juice in the healthiest way possible. Read more…

Book Review: Nutrition and Physical Degeneration

Book Review: Nutrition and Physical Degeneration

By Sean Michael Hall, L.Ac.

Nutrition and Physical Degeneration: A Comparison of Primitive and Modern Diets and Their Effects by Weston A. Price
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Published in 1939, this is one of the most important books on nutrition ever written. Dr. Price presents in this work documentation of the detrimental effects on health, bone structure and fertility that are seen when modern foods replace traditional foods. Read more…

Book Review: The China Study

The China Study Book Review

By Sean Michael Hall, L.Ac.

The China Study: The Most Comprehensive Study of Nutrition Ever Conducted And the Startling Implications for Diet, Weight Loss, And Long-term Health by T. Colin Campbell
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

I rate very few books 1 star. This book deserves it because his thinking is flawed, his conclusions wrong, and most importantly, as a scientist he should know better! He is well-aware of the difference between correlation and causation. Read more…

Book Review: Diet for a New America

Diet for a New America Book Review

By Sean Michael Hall, L.Ac.

Diet for a New America: How Your Food Choices Affect Your Health, Happiness and the Future of Life on Earth by John Robbins

My rating: 2 of 5 stars

In my early 20’s this book inspired me to shift my diet to a purely vegan diet. I followed the diet religiously for 5 years, which I regret. The book also inspired me to eat a whole foods, mostly organic and local diet, which I am thankful for. Read more…

Bikram Yoga – A Critique and Guide

Good yoga knee

By Sean Michael Hall, L.Ac.

Those of you that know me through my acupuncture practice may not know that I taught yoga throughout the Bay Area for 13 years. I no longer teach public classes, but I continue to practice some form of yoga most days. It is a practice I started 20 years ago, and it has been one of the joys of my life. Though Iyengar and Ashtanga yoga have been my greatest influences, a number of other yoga traditions have been very important in my development, especially Warrior yoga, Kali Ray Tri yoga and what some consider to be the black sheep of yoga traditions, Bikram yoga.
