Losing weight is one challenge. Keeping it off is another.

The weight-loss industry offers countless diets, programs, medications, and quick fixes. But Dr. Howard Pallay believes one issue often gets overlooked: what happens after the diet ends?

In Episode 11 of Get Healthy and Stay Healthy NATURALLY, Dr. Howard draws on 50 years of experience in natural health and Functional Nutrition to discuss weight control from a long-term lifestyle perspective.

Rather than focusing solely on becoming thinner or hitting a specific number on the scale, Dr. Howard discusses eating patterns, food quality, portion habits, meal preparation, snacking, and developing an approach you can realistically maintain.

He also shares his perspective on popular weight-loss diets and GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Zepbound—and why lasting habits still matter when medications or temporary diets end.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why many diets work temporarily but fail long term
• The difference between losing weight and maintaining a healthy weight
• Why Dr. Howard doesn't equate being thin with being healthy
• How repeated dieting can create a cycle of losing and regaining weight
• Why food quality matters alongside calories
• Dr. Howard's approach to protein and carbohydrates
• Why vegetables play such a large role in his nutrition philosophy
• His perspective on Ozempic, Mounjaro, Zepbound, and other GLP-1 medications

Does it really matter which vitamin brand you buy?

Two supplements can list similar ingredients and dosages on their labels while differing significantly in how they're manufactured and formulated.

In Episode 10 of Get Healthy and Stay Healthy NATURALLY, Dr. Howard Pallay draws on 50 years of experience in Functional Nutrition to explain what he considers when selecting nutritional supplements for himself and his patients.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why Dr. Howard believes supplement quality matters
• What to look for on a nutritional supplement label
• “Manufactured by” vs. “manufactured for” vs. “distributed by”
• Why processing and ingredient quality can matter
• Why Dr. Howard uses products from multiple manufacturers

Headaches may be common—but why do they keep happening?

A headache is a symptom, which means finding the factors contributing to it can matter just as much as addressing the pain itself.

In Episode 9 of Get Healthy and Stay Healthy NATURALLY, Dr. Howard Pallay draws on 50 years of experience in chiropractic care, Functional Nutrition, and natural health to discuss four common contributors to recurring headaches.

Dr. Howard explains his concept of “layering”—how several smaller triggers may combine until the body reaches a threshold and a headache occurs. He then discusses neck-related headaches, sinus and allergy problems, toxin-related factors, and TMJ dysfunction.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why recurring headaches shouldn't automatically be considered normal
• How several headache triggers may occur at the same time
• What cervicogenic headaches are
• How neck problems and sleep posture may contribute to headaches
• The connection between sinus problems, allergies, and headaches
• How hydration, diet, digestion, and elimination may play a role
• How TMJ dysfunction can contribute to head and facial pain
• The possible effects of dental work and jaw mechanics
• Simple self-care approaches Dr. Howard recommends
• When professional evaluation may be appropriate

Dr. Howard also connects this discussion to earlier episodes covering healthy eating, digestion, and sinus and allergy health, giving listeners additional resources for understanding some of the factors discussed.
