'It’s estimated that fibromyalgia affects approximately 10 million people in the United States. Fibromyalgia is classically characterized by chronic pain, particularly muscle pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances, brain fog or cognitive impairment, depression and painful tender points throughout the body. Conventional medicine has yet to uncover the cause of fibromyalgia and only offers management of symptoms through pain medications and antidepressants. Functional medicine, on the other hand, looks to find the root cause of fibromyalgia and other chronic diseases, treating the problem at the root level to restore the patient to health. As a functional medicine physician, I’ve helped many patients recover from fibromyalgia. Below are the top ten root causes of fibromyalgia I see in my clinic.'Read more...

'Despite what the media would have us believe, there are a lot of good things about getting older.
In today’s world, we’re faced with continual messages about aging. We hear about anti-aging products for your skin and hair just about every day. There are the new exercises to lift and sculpt, cosmetic surgery guaranteed to take 10 years off your face, and supplements to keep you feeling young well into your senior years.
Oh, and don’t forget all the steady reminders of everything that can go wrong the older you get, like diabetes, cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis, and dementia.
Is there anywhere we can turn these days that we aren’t being told that getting older is just…well, bad?
We thought it was time to turn the tide a bit. After all, aging is, as the saying goes, a lot better than the alternative!'Read more...

'There’s a new book out. It’s called Dissolving Illusions: Disease, Vaccines, and the Forgotten History. The biggest illusion is quite simple and is the basis for the entire book and what the book ultimately proves. Before I continue, answer this true-or-false question:
Throughout history, vaccines have been responsible for the eradication of all or most infectious diseases.
If you said false, you are correct. Vaccines were not responsible for the eradication of all or most infectious diseases.
Another question.
True or false: Clean water, nutrition, hygiene, and sanitation were responsible for the eradication of all or most infectious diseases.
This is true, which Dissolving Illusions clearly shows. This single fact makes the following question easy to answer.'
‘Imagine you are about to be a new mother in three months and you want to learn more about vaccines. You read information on a website discussing the different toxic chemicals and dangerous biological agents contained in vaccines. (Get the list here.)
Reading about viruses cultured on monkey kidneys, mouse brains, and aborted fetal tissue makes you sick to your stomach. You decide to post the following question, “How do I tell my doctor I don’t want this stuff injected into my new baby? I’m scared and don’t know what to do. Please help!”
Fast forward three months after having your child.
You take your newborn into the pediatrician’s office, armed with your research and facts. You expect confrontation from a nurse or doctor, as so many other parents have reported. What you hear next surprises you and sounds very familiar.’

'Do you fear heavy metal toxicity? If so, you have good reason to. Public awareness campaigns and even most doctors focus on mercury as the toxic nemesis of health.
Mercury sneaks into your body from amalgam dental fillings, fish, and in Thimerosal used as a preservative in vaccines, immunoglobulin preparations, skin test antigens, antivenins, eye and nose drops, multidose injection vials, and tattoo inks. It takes up residence in body tissues including the brain and bones. High levels are associated with chronic illness including autoimmune diseases, fatigue syndromes, and neurological diseases.
But is that all there is to heavy metal poisoning?
Certainly mercury toxicity is a serious problem and even moderately high levels in the body create an obstacle for restoring health. I’ve tested patients for more than twenty years, however, and I rarely find toxic mercury levels. The most common heavy metal I’ve found? Arsenic.' Read more...

'Bromelain proteolytic enzyme supplements grant many health benefits beyond digesting whole proteins. Complete proteins are hard to digest. That’s why only proteolytic enzymes work – they’re tough enough to crack those proteins open. And if they’re tough enough for that, they can help in other areas. Bromelain protease can dissolve internal scar tissue created from inflammation. Besides calming the inflamed area, this also takes away hiding places for pathogens to lodge. Scar tissue that hangs around is like a breeding shelter that invites disease for long term visits.'Read more...

'It was announced on Monday, July 9, by UK Care minister Norman Lamb, that the Queen's genocidal Liverpool Care Pathway (LCP) will be phased out over the next 6-12 months after an independent review found that victims were put on the pathway without consent, they were being unnecessarily sedated, and that others were being denied food and water. The program, created by Tony Blair, is the model for Obama's Affordable Health Care Act and its Independent Payment Advisory Board, both of which are modeled on Hitler's T4 program. The Department of Health said that a system in which incentive payments are paid to kill patients, will also be scrapped.'Read more...

'Most of us know that the liver is the great detoxifier of the body. Maybe not as many know that it is also a major manufacturer of enzymes, hormones and proteins, and a magical organ overall.For example, it can lose three fourths of its cells and still function, continuing with its more than 500 vital functions.Yes, it is the only organ in the body that can regenerate itself! But how does it help us digest?'Read more...
