Don't Make A New Year's Resolution | Do This Instead

Have you made a new year's resolution before? Probably so. Have you ever completed it through to the end of the year? Probably not. So, this year, why don't you do something different instead of make a new year's resolution.

Working as a kidney doctor, I found that my patients were often unaware of just how important diet and lifestyle were and how often they felt unsupported by generic advice to “eat healthy”.

The home cook in me hated hearing this, so I set out to find a better way. I began to combine my medical training and love of food, making videos of simple recipes that were based on science and packed with flavor. Instead of just saying “eat healthy” to my patients, I could give them the resources they needed to make a real difference in their health.

Kidney doctor, passionate home cook, and YouTube sensation Dr Blake Shusterman empowers people to proactively manage their health by stepping into the kitchen. The author of several cookbooks with over 100,000 YouTube subscribers, The Cooking Doc® believes anyone, at any age can transform their health with small changes that make a big difference. Based on science and packed with flavor, Dr. Blake’s simple recipes have inspired home cooks everywhere to change their diet, retrain their taste buds, and transform their health.

I like your idea of daily intentions. New Year resolutions set us up for failure, largely because we bite off more than we can chew. But a daily intention (something we can chew up and digest in one small serving) can greatly help us along the path to the next day. Great idea, Dr. Blake!👍

Just watched this again, shortly after my appointment with you today. Daily, reachable, doable intentions; it still rings so real!👍

Hi doc, just wanted to ask if you know about having largely varying creatinine levels? If everything else looks normal on blood work except creatinine. Being high one test and low the next, both outside of the reference ranges?
