Exercise literally increases the size of your brain. Older adults who engaged in moderate-intensity aerobic exercise three times per week for one year saw a 2% increase in the size of their hippocampus. Hippocampal volume shrinks 1–2% per year, so a 2% increase is equivalent to adding between 1 to 2 years worth of volume for this age group!

The North Brooklyn Pipeline proposal, to invest hundreds of millions of ratepayer dollars over the next three years to expand and extend the life of fracked gas infrastructure, takes us in the wrong direction. We say #NoNBKPipeline. bklyner.com/brownsville-is-n…

A year ago, Brooklyn lost one of its greatest sons, James “Rocky” Robinson. Today, our #BedStuy community came together to uplift the memory of the man who founded America’s first volunteer ambulance corps of color. His mission lives on in the many people he’s impacted and saved.

Our first line of defense against ingested pathogens is the acid in our stomach, and Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) eliminate this by altering the pH in the gut. This leads to an imbalance of good to bad bacteria normally found in the gut, leading to all sorts of problems.
