When this site was launched I wanted to be able to have a steady flow of informative and well-referenced articles to help people wade through what's fact and what's fiction when it comes to their heart health.

But I've been bogged down lately and haven't finished a decent article in a couple weeks. Why? Getting it right takes a lot more work on some of these articles than I thought it would. For example, I'm finishing up an article about Aloe Vera and whether it can help treat palpitations. It's taken me nearly a week worth of evenings, finding relevant studies, but also checking the credentials of those who recommend it. And that can be more work than the article itself! Finding out if a doctor is actually a doctor, if their practice is where they say it is, if their claims about their experience are accurate or wildly exaggerated.

It's tough. Well, more time consuming than tough.

So, my apologies for not having more articles out there, but know that I'm pounding away on the keyboard here, with 50+ tabs open at a time in my Firefox browser, trying to get all the facts straight before I share them with you.
