Put this on your "KEEP ME UPDATED LIST" health news.

We have some interesting and heartbreaking news in the world of medicine these days. There are references you should put on your “keep me updated list.”
You know, it was 1993 when the pharmaceutical world secured the right to advertise direct to the public and the growth of television advertising of drugs increased 4,000% by 1999. With the networks dependent on the revenue from these companies do you feel you get a fair, unbiased reporting of the news in the medical field? Do you think the demand from patients to their physicians for the latest and greatest “drug ad” change the way physicians treat their patients?

If you want information that is factual you have to dig for it and you have to be interested. If you fail to take the responsibility for checking out your medical choices you could drastically affect the outcomes you hoped for. In the case of vaccinations for children the most explosive news in years has gone unreported in the television media. A CDC scientist, William Thompson, went public with the news that he and his co-authors cooked studies on the MMR vaccine; they hid the fact that there was a connection between the vaccine and the occurrence of autism in vaccinated children. We knew this was the case from the hundreds and thousands of parents that observed the connection in their families. Add to your “keep me updated list” an investigative reporter Jon Rappoport to keep current on these facts and more with his site nomorefakenews.com.

A new diet drug has been released that has a hidden anti-depressant in it and suicide risk as a side-effect. You can find news like this with The Alliance of Natural Health USA, www.anh-usa.org. Dr. Maulfair advises his patients wait at least five years before taking any new drug as the release of the drugs into the population is, in itself, the research of side-effects. The clinical trials run by the manufacturers themselves open the door for false interpretations of the results and the trials are small and short lived. When the drug hits the American marketplace the side effects start appearing in the FDA data base, waiting five years gives you more security in determining if the risk of the drug is worth it’s use. Obviously if you had a serious health crisis it may make sense to try a drastic measure of taking an experimental drug. Dr. Maulfair also recommends some “old” tried and true medications whose complete list of side effects are well known and those that have far less risk.

For those of us who want to take more responsibility for the outcomes of health care choices The Alliance of Natural Health gives you a directory of organizations of physicians for you to search for their help in your city. Beyond self care there are health professionals and doctors who offer a wide range of treatments that are not drugs.

Citizen’s Council for Health Freedom, cchfreedom.org will bring you the latest in the changes in health care and Obama care updates. This is the news you will not see in the common media and the legislation that is proposed. This site is really a survival tool if you want to make your choices fully informed. Along with our friends, the American Association of Physicians and Surgeons, www.aapsonline.org, you will learn how doctors are changing the choices you have and opening clinics that are cheaper per procedure than those offering covered services. AAPS also gives you intelligent articles and updates on the legal status of various aspects of government health care.

One TV network reported the linkage between artificial sweeteners and adverse health problems.  In line with our counseling of patients they explained these chemicals can ruin your digestive tract and are considered by the body as any toxin would be.  Avoiding them is key to good health.  There are low glycemic choices.

We find that the smartest choice at this point are health savings accounts combined with very high deductible plans for emergencies. Finding independent doctors in your town can be tough as the hospitals are employing most but it is still possible to find an independent physician through these resources.

We wish for you great health. Your best hope for a happy life is being healthy and not needing any invasive interventions.

Do This For Your Health

These are troubled times for us all but for boomers it is especially troubled.  We see fantastic health outcomes everyday but informing people of the real answers is hard over all the misinformation about blood pressure, cholesterol and hormones let alone the big attention getters of heart disease and diabetes.
We have heard audnausium about diet, eggs no eggs, fish oil-mine is the best, no red meat- red meat yes, you know that drill.  Seldom mentioned underlying conditions that cause inflammation and set you up for heart disease, diabetes and cancer down the road are generally unknown. Most doctors are not talking. If you knew the source of the development of disease processes you would not be a customer for drug companies and surgeries.  When your doctor says you have high blood pressure does he ask to test you for heavy metals?

In the Journal of the American Medical Association (2003) lead levels and elevated blood pressure is discussed.  Post menopausal women show the strongest association, when menstration ceases there is no longer lead loss in monthly periods.  Bones demineralize releasing lead into circulation and higher pressures result.  Dr. Maulfair mentions the fact that there are over 4,000 medical papers citing the relationship between high blood pressure and lead in his seminars.  We address the removal of lead with our patients, not only does it affect blood pressure but also cognitive function but to benefit  people need correct medical information to change their  future.

The many metals we find in our patients are the cause of simple things like lack of energy and complications like heart disease and diabetes.  You should know your heavy metal levels.  A successful trial was recently completed by NIH regarding chelation therapy, it removes ionic calcium and heavy metals and improves diabetes and heart disease.  Chelation therapy is a treatment choice for active disease and for prevention.  Get the metal out before you have symptoms should be your health goal for 2014.  Good health is the only escape for the confusion and trouble throughout the world of health insurance and medicine.

50 ish? Time to Age Gently

When you consider the fact that you accumulate toxins through out your lifetime including heavy metals and those drugs you did as a kid;  don’t forget all the chemicals in personal care products and manufactured food as well as the out gassing from new homes and fire retardants in furniture…you might being feeling a bit fatigued and ill.  Some of us are downright disease ridden.  This is a great time to do something about all this before you are sitting in a nursing home drooling unable to remember your life.

Gently aging should include a great nutrient supplement list, some exercise and treatments developed to take care of the toxins you are riddled with.  Tiny amounts of lead, not to mention cadmium and antimony, interfere with  your circulation and energy level.  Lead raises blood pressure leading to heart disease and strokes.  Chemicals make you foggy and stupid or worse, give you cancer.  The treatment best at removing metals is intravenous chelation therapy and the treatment best at removing chemicals is a Hubbard Method sauna detoxification program.

One of our recent patient successes is a rave report from a chelation patient who had a cardiac cath revealing three blocked arteries: one 50%, one 70% and another 80% blocked.  He decided after some years of chelation treatments as a maintenance program to have another cath.  Guess what?  No blockages at all on the second cath.  This is a reversal of heart disease.  Reversed.  So for the price of dinner out with friends you can change the course of your aging and have a chelation treatment once a month to continuely remove the lead and cadmium and other metals from your body.  Many of our patients notice their arthritis, dry skin, wrinkles and hair growth improve as a side benefit.  They feel and ARE younger.  The patient with blockages had 84 treatments over 76 months – economical way to reverse the disease process.  Dr. Maulfair conducts a very informative seminar discussing this thoroughly.

A contractor with chronic Lyme disease recently completed our sauna detoxification program and had a great benefit.  A few weeks after completing he is excited because he can work all day, into the early evening, and is not suffering from seasonal allergies that used to result in bad headaches and an inability to work all day.  He gets up every morning excited about his work.  There is more to that story you can find by emailing us for the success stories.  This sauna detoxification program is the exact protocol that delivers every time.

There are a ton of self help actions you can take to age gently and when you need something more intense come to us and we will help you reverse the declines associated with aging.
