Mink! Champion of Title IX

If you’re a woman who played sports, or have girls or women in your life who did or do, then you will want to see this remarkable story that explains who made that possible. This short documentary tells the story of Title IX through the eyes of Wendy, daughter of the amazing Patsy Takemoto Mink, a Japanese American from Hawaii who became the first woman of color elected to the U.S. Congress. The film shows her difficult mission to co-author and defend Title IX, the 1972 law that transformed athletics for girls and women for generations in America. Having met obstacles at so many turns for being a woman and for being a woman of color, she turned those rejections into a determination to make a difference in the world by changing laws that prevented women and others from living freely. This film is a reminder to never take for granted that one person can change the world. As she said while speaking to Congress, "No matter how an individual has been excluded in the past, an individual DOES count!"

My goal in medicine is to help provide a way to navigate and sort through health information based on an entirely new way of thinking about health and disease.

Young Forever: Why Balance Matters

“The hallmarks of aging are how our biology becomes out of balance. Conventional medicine describes the what: what disease, what pathway is dysfunctional, what drug to take. The model of functional medicine guides us to the why, to the root causes of diseases and aging. Many longevity research efforts focus on just treating the hallmarks of aging, without treating their underlying causes. That’s where functional medicine comes in. What causes the hallmarks in the first place? Imbalance — too much bad stuff, not enough good stuff. The beauty of the human organism is that we don’t have to know its every gene, protein, metabolite, or microbe. We simply need to know what creates imbalance or balance, and thankfully it is not millions of things. It is a few simple things.” Renowned author and functional medicine pioneer, Dr. Mark Hyman shares more in this excerpt from his new book, ‘Young Forever: The Secrets to Living Your Longest, Healthiest Life.” { read more }
