Microwaves

I remember when I was a child, my Grandpa smoked.  He was in the hospital and his cardiologist sat on the bed with him while they both enjoyed a smoke.  That picture is seared in my brain.  How horrifying today.  But back then, we were blind to the problems of cigarettes.

Microwaves are bad for your health.  One student did an experiment in school.  She had a number of plants.  She divided them in half.  One half she watered with regular water.  The other one she watered with water that had been microwaved.  The result:  All of the plants watered with the microwaved water died.   The other plants were just fine.

In fact, this has been studied, just like cigarettes.  How long will it take us to LEARN?

Continually eating microwaved food causes brain damage.  The body can’t metabolize the microwaved food very well.  Our hormones are altered by foods that are microwaved.

If we look at the rise of brain problems, gut issues, and hormone issues, we should be horrified.  There are other causes, no doubt.  But this is an easy one to change.  Cooking is popular.  Learn a few great recipes.  Watch the cooking shows.  Make cooking family fun!  And forget about the microwave! 

Many people suffer with sinus issues.  They can’t breathe well.  They are always snorting.  They often don’t sleep well.  Often, they snore, even children.   Or perhaps always have a runny nose or just congestion.  Do you want to end your pain?  Obviously, we are all different, but how many have been helped with one fairly simple change in behavior?  They quit eating dairy.  All dairy.  Sometimes you will not believe what symptoms abate when you quit eating/drinking dairy in any form be it yogurt, cheese or milk in your coffee.  

We are not little cows.  Other countries look in disbelief that we drink the milk from another species!  Some people simply cannot digest dairy well.  You may love it.  Many people do.  

If you snort and cough and wheeze and are constantly bothered by sinus issues, please just stop dairy for 3 weeks and see how you feel.  If you don’t really suffer with sinus, but you get sick and are congested, stop dairy.  Diary is a mucous maker.  You don’t want that when you are sick.  Remember, Good Health is Priceless!!

This is your opportunity to understand the controversy about vaccines.  And if you are a parent or a grandparent, surely you will take a few minutes to understand the controversy and how it developed about vaccines causing autism. This video is only FREE for a week, so please, do it NOW!

The issue may seem far from you, but every 7 minutes in the US a child is diagnosed with autism.  By 2032, if it continues, 80% of boys will become autistic and one in two children will be autistic.  What does that say about our future?   I am a senior, but there are young people I love who will still be here, God willing, and I want them to have a good life.  How will our society care for these adults who used to be children?  

This video makes the controversy understandable.  Our civilization depends on us understanding this and doing something about it.  

People are confused about prostate issues.  I remember when I was in my first office, a man came to me wanting me to “do something” about his prostate cancer.  The doctor had told him no treatment was necessary because he would die from something else before his prostate cancer was a problem because he had the kind of cancer that grows so slowly.

It might have grown slowly but he couldn’t think of anything else because he wanted someone to “do something!”

If you don’t understand the issue, listen to this man.  He is not a doctor but understands the issue and how complicated making a decision about this is for the person.  It isn’t easy for the doctor either.  Understanding it completely will keep a person from “wanting something to be done—right now!”  So take a few moments and listen to the first half of this presentation by Malcolm Gladwell. 

What causes diabetes?  Heart disease?  Fatty liver disease?  

Medicine is based on giving drugs for these diseases to “manage them,” not cure them.

But what if there were a cure? If you need to be convinced that these diseases are caused by eating processed foods, then listen to this video. He is a remarkable medical doctor.  You will enjoy his lecture using graphs and statistics. This is not simply his opinion, but based on research! ENJOY!

I hope you will listen to this video. Dr. Mercola interviews Dr. Marty Makary’s about his book, “The Price We Pay: What Broke American Health Care–and How to Fix It.” He is a surgeon at John Hopkins and speaks to why the health care system is broken. He says doctors know the nudges to get patients to do what they want them to do. However, he also talks about how patients should take responsibility for not accepting an antibiotic when the doctor says it is a virus. It works both ways: doctors should not do things to patients that are unnecessary AND patients should not demand treatment that is not necessary.

He polled medical doctors and they said 1/5 of the treatments done on patients are unnecessary. He also said that hospitals are really wanting to build spinal surgery centers because they are so lucrative, not because they care about people in pain. He asked spinal doctors how many spinal surgeries are done that are not necessary. You will be surprised at the answer.

He says primary care is completely broken! As he says, we have a health care CRISIS!

I like to offer you a video or an article written by other people so you know that this isn’t just my idea.

I remember years ago learning that Alzheimer’s is caused by mercury.

If you want to understand it in greater depth, watch this video.

If you want to me to “bottom line it for you,” I will. But it is a very interesting video.

We have a great deal of mercury in our environment and some think it is passed down from one generation to another. In the video, this biochemist says mercury is the cause for Alzheimer’s and he has a cure. Well, he had a supplement that was sold between 2008-2010, but problems with the FDA caused him to close it down.

Then he decided to have it made into a prescription, but, as he says, there will be problems getting a prescription in the US because medical doctors will say, “no one is toxic on mercury.” Why? They don’t see it in the blood test. The drug is not available yet, but will first be released in Scotland. I do have a long lost relative I need to visit in Scotland, right?

If you would like to see how well it works, listen to him. He has NO mental issues and he is 79 years old. He is remarkable and says he has taken this supplement every day for a long time. I want some!! Don’t you?

The end of August is the 30^thanniversary of my private practice in CO.  

I want to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you who have trusted me to assist you in your journey toward health.  We all have a body and it is a job to keep it healthy, especially in the environment of chemicals and GMO’s.  Staying healthy is a continual work in progress.  

The actual date of opening my practice was August 29, 1989.  I graduated chiropractic school in 1986 and worked with another chiropractor in Houston until moving to Denver to start my own practice.

We will work together to continue to improve our health as the years go by.  May your health flourish!  Now to celebrate, I’m going to San Diego Thursday!!  I’ll be back in the office August 28^th.

Dr. Jason Fung is a kidney doctor in Canada who typically works with people who are diabetic.  

He has worked in the medical business long enough to really understand it.  

He explains why health eludes people in the first five minutes of this video. 

If you listen no further, listen to the first five minutes.  

This is why I do the work I do:  to help people be healthy instead of being on one drug after

another.

If you have never tried fasting, see if it is for you? 

Macular Degeneration is the #1 reason for blindness in the western world.  And those of us who suffer with it have been gifted by an ophthalmologist, Dr. Chris Knobbe.  He wrote a book, “Ancestral Dietary Strategy to Prevent and Treat Macular Degeneration.”  He sells it for cost at the website www.cureamd.org as a download or the book.  

I found his interview at Dr. Mercola’s fascinating.  

If you have macular degeneration or you know someone who has macular degeneration, please pass this interview to them.
