At 51, Halle Berry has managed to defy the passage of time and maintain an incredibly youthful look. The secret? Exercise, a healthy (ketogenic) diet, and trainer Peter Lee Thomas. Berry has more energy, is more athletic and feels better than ever. Not to mention, she says that she’s been able to change her Type 1 diabetes diagnosis into Type 2. So we talked to Thomas about his work with the Oscar winner, the ways in which the ketogenic diet and supplements from the Purium brand have changed her from the inside out, and why he says she’s the hardest-working actress he’s ever met.

Halle Berry looked pretty fantastic at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party on Sunday night. Berry’s legs looked toned and muscular as she sauntered her way down the carpet. The secret behind that leg strength? It’s not only because of her intense exercise regimen with trainer Peter Thomas, but also because of her love of stretching through some of her favorite yoga poses. Something else that helps Berry look and feel her best is supplements from the health company, Purium. She promoted a few of the products in February’s 23rd’s Fitness Friday. Her favorite of the bunch includes the Super Amino 23, which she consumes before workouts and which she says creates “lean muscles and more power for your workouts.”

​

The Great American Baking Show’s newest winner, Vallery Lomas, has the perfect baker’s response to the show’s abrupt cancellation — “When life gives you lemons, I’m making lemon curds.”

The full-time attorney and part-time baker and blogger addressed ABC’s decision to pull season 3 of the show off the air just one week after it’s Dec. 7 premiere in light of the sexual harassment allegations made against pastry chef Johnny Iuzzini, one of the judges on the show, in a Facebook Live video on Thursday.

On Thursday, Vallery Lomas, winner of The Great American Baking Show Season 3, broadcasted on Facebook Live and addressed the show’s sudden cancellation after sexual misconduct allegations were levied against judge Johnny Iuzzini. ABC pulled the season after airing just two episodes, saying the “season’s winner will be announced at a later date.”

In a Thursday Facebook Live session, the winner of ABC’s “The Great America Baking Show,” Vallery Lomas, directly addressed sexual misconduct accusations against one of the show’s judges that derailed the cooking competition’s third season.

The Great American Baking Show has quietly announced the Season 3 winner on Facebook following the sexual misconduct scandal surrounding judge Johnny Iuzzini and ABC’s decision to pull the remaining episodes.

Vallery Lomas later appeared in a Facebook Live video in which she thanked fans for their support and addressed the scandal head-on, explaining that “unfortunately because of the actions of Johnny Iuzzini, we are not able to broadcast the show as was originally planned.”

Dr. Eric Presser joins ABC7 News to discuss Air Quality and Its Effect On Lungs.

There’s nothing more powerful than a puff of cigarette smoke. Thirdhand smoke is the contamination left behind following an extinguished cigarette. It’s what lingers in furniture, carpets, and yes, clothes, for hours, days and sometimes longer if you have someone in your home who continuously partakes in smoking. “It’s the same,” says Eric Presser, M.D., a thoracic surgeon, associate professor with the University of California, Riverside School of Medicine and author of An Empowering Guide to Lung Cancer: Six Steps to Taking Charge of Your Care and Your Life.

A wave of new tobacco ads debuted across prime-time television and published in newspapers this weekend, but they aren't promoting what you might expect.

​

Dr. Eric Presser, a thoracic surgeon who is a member of First California Physician Partners and an associate professor at the University of California, Riverside School of Medicine, sees the tobacco companies' forthcoming corrective ads as a "step in the right direction in educating the public."

In this book excerpt, from Dr. Eric Presser, the author of "An Empowering Guide to Lung Cancer: Six Steps to Taking Charge of Your Care and Your Life" explains a little-known health risk of tobacco.

It took decades for the public to wake up to the dangers associated with secondhand smoke. Now, another cigarette-related phenomenon is raising concern: third-hand smoke. Before you start laughing, know this: It's real, and it's ubiquitous.

​

Resilience Expert, Cheryl Hunter, appeared on HLN with Michaela Pereira to discuss the waves of accusations against men in media, publishing, politics.

​

November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month and what many people don’t realize is that 15% of people who get lung cancer are never smokers. You can actually get the disease from things like vaping, 2nd hand and even 3rd hand smoke.

That’s why we talked with Dr. Eric Presser who provides an empowering, comprehensive guide to the disease with his new book: An Empowering Guide to Lung Cancer: Six Steps to Taking Charge of Your Care and Your Life.

Did you know that vaginas can lift weights? They can. They can and they should. According to Lisa Masterson, MD, the ancient Tao practice of Vagina Kung Fu, also formerly known as Vaginal Weightlifting, is a fantastic exercise that utilizes the contraction of a woman's vagina muscles (also known as the pelvic floor muscles) to grab onto and hold a weighted object inserted into the vagina.
