For several months during the summer of 2022, my dog Scout vomited at 3 a.m. nearly every day. If you have a dog, you know the sound. And each time, she gobbled up her mess before I could get to it, making diagnosis of the cause difficult.The vet and I eventually settled on my hydrangeas as the source of the problem – but keeping Scout away from them didn’t work. She started to seem tired all the time – highly concerning in a typically hyper yellow Lab puppy. Photo by Sander

You do not recover because your smartwatch says you are ready. You recover because your body got enough deep, uninterrupted sleep to repair tissue, calm your nervous system, and make your next workout feel productive instead of punishing. For anyone serious about training, sleep is not the soft side of fitness.  Fitness culture has more data than ever, yet many active people are still dragging themselves through the week on late caffeine, irregular bedtimes, and a vague belie

Body sculpting treatments continue to grow in popularity across Miami, where patients increasingly seek ways to contour their shape without undergoing traditional surgery. Thanks to advancements in aesthetic technology, it’s now possible to reduce stubborn fat deposits, tighten skin, and enhance natural contours through minimally invasive or fully non-invasive procedures. But not all body sculpting procedures are created equal. Each treatment comes with its own trade-offs in

Imagine you’re at the grocery store, standing before a selection of snacks. Seemingly without thinking, you skip over the rice crackers to pick out a bag of chips. Photo/Jeff Siepman/Unsplash These types of choices are called dietary decisions. It’s how we consider many different aspects of a food – including tastiness, healthiness and price – in order to decide what to buy and what to eat. It’s not well understood how our brains use all these different bits of information wh

Miami has a bit of a reputation as the world’s plastic surgery capital, but if you look past the neon billboards and the high-speed clinics, you’ll find something refreshingly different in Coral Gables.

An upside-down jellyfish drifts in a shallow lagoon, rhythmically contracting its translucent bell. By night that beat drops from roughly 36 pulses a minute to nearer 30, and the animal slips into a state that, despite its lack of a brain, resembles sleep.

If you have ever lifted a weight, you know the routine: challenge the muscle, give it rest, feed it and repeat. Over time, it grows stronger. Research shows that the brain can be exercised, much like our muscles. RapidEye/E+ via Getty Images Of course, muscles only grow when the challenge increases over time . Continually lifting the same weight the same way stops working. It might come as a surprise to learn that the brain responds to training in much the same way as our mus

In a city where beauty is practically a second language, standing out in Miami’s aesthetic scene takes more than trend awareness – it takes vision. That’s exactly what  ALEXIS LAUREN , the luxury medspa concept founded in South Florida, has managed to do. And now, after building a devoted local clientele, the brand is preparing to take its distinctly Miami-born approach nationwide. Launched in 2022 by founder  Alexis Renda , ALEXIS LAUREN was born from a simple observation: m

In a city like Miami, fitness is everywhere. From sunrise workouts along the waterfront to Pilates studios tucked between cafés and offices, staying active is part of the culture. But with busy schedules, high energy, and year-round heat, many people are rethinking what “fitness” really means – and how to make it sustainable. Instead of chasing intense programs or short-term results, more people are shifting toward low-impact, consistency-focused routines  that support long-t

Wellness has always been about more than just health for the majority of Miami’s residents. Since image matters so much, wellness is focused on building confidence, improving your presentation, and feeling your best. Cosmetic dentistry, injectables, and med-spa treatments are pretty popular, but also come with a hefty price tag.

People start modern weight loss programs with one central question. How long until I see changes? That question carries hope, doubt, and often past disappointment from plans that promised speed but delivered frustration. Weight loss results do not follow a single schedule. Bodies respond based on biology, starting weight, hormones, sleep, stress, and consistency. Two people can follow the same plan and experience very different timelines.

Life rarely asks for permission before it changes direction. For families, especially those balancing careers, visibility, and responsibility, preparedness becomes part of daily living. It is less about fear and more about keeping routines intact when plans shift unexpectedly.

The off-season offers a valuable window to reset the body and mind after months of competition or consistent activity. Rather than stepping away completely or pushing through fatigue, this period allows athletes and active individuals to rebuild strength, address weaknesses, and recover properly.

Life as an adult rarely slows down. Work responsibilities, family commitments, and constant digital engagement often leave little room for preventative health checks. Eye care, in particular, is easy to postpone because vision changes tend to happen gradually. Many adults adjust without realizing that their eyes are working harder than they should. Regular eye exams are not only about updating a prescription. They are essential for maintaining clear vision and they can reveal

Lumbar spinal stenosis commonly results in discomfort, tingling, or weakness in the lower back and legs. It can interfere with your daily routine.

Miami festivals are not short outings. They’re full days that sometimes turn into full nights. There’s lots of standing and slow walking on concrete. This is made all the more difficult by the South Florida heat. By the time the music fades or the last booth closes, your feet usually know it. That doesn’t mean you have to push through pain to enjoy events like Art Basel Miami Beach, Calle Ocho Festival, Ultra Music Festival, or the South Beach Wine & Food Festival. It just me

“I sometimes joke that my pets eat better than my children.” While comparing kids to pets might seem a bit much, it reflects a serious truth: nutritionally speaking, food products made for animals, whether domestic or farmed, are more complete than those made for humans.

The holiday season is often painted as an idyllic vision of rest, conjuring images of warm beverages and bountiful time with loved ones. But many people have trouble unwinding at this time of year.

Over the past two years, GLP-1 medications like semaglutide  and tirzepatide  have reshaped how Americans approach weight management. Once reserved for diabetes care, these drugs are now widely recognized for their ability to reduce appetite, improve insulin sensitivity, and support long-term fat loss. But science – not hype – should guide who prescribes and how it’s managed. With dozens of new telehealth startups advertising quick results, patients need programs rooted in ev

The pandemic revealed what numerous families previously believed: our nursing home framework requires substantial reform.

Eliud Kipchoge runs marathons faster than most people drive through school zones. When he crossed the finish line in Berlin, when Kenenisa Bekele clocked 2:03:03, when Desiree Linden won Boston, they all had the same thing in their pockets. Maurten gels. That fact alone does not make the product worth your money, but it does raise a fair question: what is this stuff, and does it work for runners who are not breaking world records? The Swedish company launched in 2015 with a s
