Big Changes Coming to Your Supplements in 2020, Part 1
December 5, 2019
Big changes are coming in 2020 for supplement consumers. Brian Wommack, Senior Vice President of the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN), previews the new label requirements that are mandated starting next year for dietary supplements. He explains the changes you’ll see when it comes to levels of vitamins A, D, E, and folate. International Units (IUs) will be supplanted by micrograms (mcgs). CRN’s “Label Wise” campaign (www.belabelwise.org) seeks to prepare consumers for the changes and improve label literacy. Wommack discusses the role of CRN as mediator between government regulators and supplement manufacturers; CRN’s goal is to represent progressive, responsible stakeholders within the supplement industry. He decries claims, so often echoed in the media, that the supplement industry is “unregulated” and is a “Wild West” of unaccountable players offering dangerous, adulterated products to unwary consumers.

The Physiology of Anger, Part 1
December 3, 2019
Anger takes a toll. The psychology of anger ranks with smoking, poor diet, and lack of exercise as a major cardiovascular risk factor. In these angry and polarized times, social media and politics actually monetize anger; they attempt to stoke our emotions to service our consumer society or push a button for one or another candidate. Dr. Christian Conte is a Level V Anger Management Specialist and author of "Walking Through Anger: A New Design for Confronting Conflict in an Emotionally Charged World." He details "Yield Theory," a revolutionary method for de-escalating conflict, promoting clear communication―and changing the way you relate to others in every part of your life.
