Welcome to DrSears.com

Thank you for visiting DrSears.com.  Medicine is not as complicated as we think, and likewise nutrition is not as simple as we are led to believe.  My goal at DrSears.com is to make you think about both medicine and nutrition from a new perspective.  That new perspective is based upon understanding the molecular basis of inflammation.  It’s about how inflammation is the underlying cause of chronic disease, and how our diet can either reduce inflammation or increase it.

In the final analysis, it’s all about your genes,  especially how an anti-inflammatory diet, like the Zone Diet, can turn off inflammatory genes and simultaneously turn on anti-inflammatory genes that promote cellular rejuvenation, repair and healing.  Your ability to control inflammation becomes the molecular definition of wellness.   This is why I hope you will use DrSears.com as your destination site to get the latest breaking information on anti-inflammatory medicine and its impact on 21st-century health care.

 Q: Can fish oil help extreme anxiety and depression and how much? Also how bad is it to smoke while taking fish oil? I am trying to stay off them, but my body burns, and anxiety is worse. Your literature does not say anything about these issues. I am in dire need for help. I am currently also taking supplement for adrenal support, and it makes me feel really too relaxed, and I have a problem with my skin burning. Would fish oil help my adrenals to heal? I am 44 yrs old. I am currently taking ½ teaspoon fish oil

A: Follow the Zone diet and begin supplementing with 10 grams per day of OmegaRx. That's 1 tablespoon of liquid or 15 capsules. Smoking will not affect the fish oil, but as you know creates other problems. Controlling insulin levels with the Zone and supplementing with OmegaRx will establish a good foundation for improving your conditions. Always work with your physician.

Medical Testimonial

I lost weight and gained energy as everyone else has but what is most remarkable for me has been the fact that I haven't caught a cold for six or seven winters straight. For the same number of years, I haven't suffered the annoying pain of mouth sores, canker sores or cold sores (I think these are all words used to describe the same annoyance), which I normally had to endure about four times a year.
