Food Addictions: Are They For Real?
December 3rd, 2015Why is our laser weight control program so unique?

Inmate Dies In Custody
October 10th, 2015This post is not about the alleged misconduct or negligence of the Macomb County Jail in the death of 32 year-old inmate, David Stojcevski, last June. The media handles that.
