We all agree that cells communicate with each other. This happens through receptor cell membranes the surface of which must be free of obstacles in order for communication to take place. When there are obstacles the cell communication is altered, inhibited and even garbled. This is known as epigenetics, the environment within which a cell functions and which affects the health of the cell without changing the genetic code. You may be surprised to learn that the latest research has shown that as much as 75% of genetic expression is due to epigenetics while only 25% is related to the genetic hard-wired code itself.
Read MoreHistamines are essential because they stimulate inflammation, protective immunity and healing. But they also can flood the tissues so frequently that you develop an intolerance to their presence. In fact, any time you reach for an antihistamine and you feel better afterwards, you are proving that I am right about this.
Read MoreThe secret to slowing your aging process is something your cells understand all too well. It’s called cellular senescence and it’s now the most sought-after natural process available. It’s the fastest-growing solution for chronic symptoms and illness that our clinic has seen since we opened in 1997.
Read MoreWhen patients sit down to tell me about their history, they never mention their parents, as though their personal experience is all that influences their health. But in fact, our health history begins further back in time then we may even know. Jung had the right idea when he espoused the collective unconscious. We truly are the sum total of our ancestry, not just our life experience.
Read MoreThe true solution for insomnia lies with what is happening with your energy during the day. If your adrenal glands are shot and you can barely crawl out of bed in the morning, then that has to be addressed before Mr. Sandman knocks on your door.
Read MoreWhen I speak of the "brain drain" I don't mean the social idea of people allowing their skills and intelligence to be enticed away from their home by promises of money and opportunity. I am talking about a much more insidious process that is happening within many of our homes. I am talking about neuroinflammation of the brain.
Read MoreA long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away it was generally known that there was a specific fat-soluble nutrient that prevented stiffness and the accompanying arthritis, swelling and pain. It was known as Wulzen Factor and it was found in raw milk, green vegetables, raw soybeans, unheated molasses and sugarcane juice. Aside from the green vegetables, we don’t really consume these foods and I know a few people that run away from green vegetables.
Read MoreWe are sick more often and for longer periods of time. Many of us live with chronic illness. We use our immune system every day, not just to ward off bacteria, viruses and other pathogens, but also to eliminate dead cells, worn-out body tissue and toxins that we are exposed to every day of our lives.
Read MoreI have had so many patients come in to my office telling me all the things they have been diagnosed with and all the treatments they have done and they still don’t feel well. Their symptoms have still not resolved. So take a step back and consider what this means…
Read MoreAs far back as 1994 medical research realized that there were specific illnesses caused by organisms that had unique abilities. They were able to not just “infect” you, they could adapt to your immune system and evade your body’s attempts to resolve them. These became known as stealth pathogens and it meant that they could live in your body for very long periods of time.
Read MoreEvery woman that walks into the clinic has been told the same thing by their physician ... take more calcium. Particularly post-menopausal women have been programmed to think that calcium is the key to their bone health. In fact, that is far from the truth, so let’s talk about why osteopenia, osteoporosis and arthritis for that matter, seem to be in every woman’s health future. So when we talk about the bones needing lots of calcium, what exactly do the bones do with all that calcium? The answer is .... nothing.
Read MoreEvery day at our clinic, people walk in thinking they are sick when in reality their body is simply doing some housekeeping. How do you know the difference?
