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.

Where Do Toxins Go When They Die?

They don’t, you do.  Most toxins, if they are eliminated from the body, and most are not, find their way into the municipal water treatment plant.  Some metals and pharmaceutical drugs are not able to be removed with normal processes so they may be incinerated and/or they wind up on the family farm in form of sludge.  Plants uptake the toxins while they grow and you eat the crops, or the animals that ate the crops, and there you are again.  Processing toxins.
Your body is able to eliminate some toxins but if you have an impaired liver you will not do a good job of it.  If  you are eating poorly and in a toxic work place you may harbor an overload of toxins your body cannot eliminate;  they will be stored in your fat tissue.  Adipose tissue has a very poor blood supply so the body in its wisdom disposes of toxins by directing their storage in fat tissue.  The storage of toxins in fats includes storage in the myelin sheath surrounding your nerves.  This very well may explain the problems of m.s..  When stored in fat tissue they are relatively out of the way, not circulating the blood stream, until you miss a meal, exercise, or for any reason burn the fat the toxin is stored in.  When that happens the toxin recirculates in the blood stream, causing new problems and is again directed into fat storage by the body’s safety mechanisms.

Best understood when you talk about drugs like LSD.  People may experiment with LSD a few times in college and then leave those days behind.  Ten years later they are jogging down their street after work for exercise and they burn fat tissue for energy that is storing molecules of LSD from ten years ago.  They experience a “flashback”.  This is not a mental phenomenon but rather the physical occurence of the drug being re-released into the blood stream and causing a brand new hallucination.

This recirculation can happen with all toxins stored in adipose tissue.  You can develop symptoms that are only the result of this physical process and see a doctor for a symptom and guess what?!  The doctor gives you another toxin in the form of a prescription and there you go again.  Can you imagine what you might feel like if you start to experience an anesthesia coming out of fat storage?  Think of all the medical drugs, alcohol, street drugs, pain killers, deadening agents, solvents, cleaning fluids, food additives, preservatives, heavy metals like mercury, cadmium in the air we breathe …... it goes on and on.  Think of how those things made you feel, you will feel like that again, same woosyness, same headache, same lack of ambition, same lack of energy.

So it does matter … your diet, your nutrient supplements, your medical habits, your exercise, clean air and water, your view of farm fields… it all matters a great deal.  You are remaining healthy because you pay attention to these things or if not, you are slowly losing your edge against symptoms and problems of aging.  If you are in our area, come to our seminars or visit our center for a tour.  We do not ignore the contaminants that may be making you sick.

Your Health Depends on Answers - Not Prescriptions

What counts now, with the advent of Obamacare in action, is your ability to direct  your own health care with providers you trust.  Doctors have less leeway and must follow protocols  dictated by the big government recipes.  When there is a recommendation that varies from the routine of “this complaint = this drug”, you and your doctor will have to fight for the right to select another route.  Remember, the cheapest way to treat health problems is to prescribe a drug.  It is cheap.
The DSM V for emotional problems is expanded and deserves your attention.  You do not want to talk with doctors about social problems or emotional problems and life situations, do not.  They are the last group to go to for advice, they are trained in physical health.  They have no formal training in nutrition.  If you have a troubled child you need to research the actual results of the care in the hands of psychiatry or family medicine.  The field of psychiatry “treats” kids in trouble and when the treatments result in a crazed act of violence they rush in to “treat” the victims that are left to pick up the pieces.  They create their own patients.  When the violence is not enough in the world around them to generate the income they need, they decide a child whose parents and school have failed at teaching them how to read is a mental patient and needs treatment, a drug.  The fraud in medicine continues.  In the DSM IV code 315.00 Reading Disorder, 315.1 Mathematics Disorder, and, of course, 315.2 Disorder of Written Expression are money makers for family physicians who prescribe psyche drugs and the psyches.  School fails to educate students, parents fail to make sure their kids are succeeding and we have a cash cow for the psyches.

A child who has been unable to read, write and do math at a level expected for their age is now insured of failure because the drugs they take give them side-affects like inability to sleep, bed wetting, stunted growth and heart problems.  These are people whose internal organs and brain are still developing and they should be growing like weeds.  Tell me this is not big business making money off of our misfortune.

If you have few resources, if you are under the influence of the system; realize that free care, handouts, and government programs stifle self-reliance, initiative and worse, you can be made mad for life if you get into the wrong hands.  Happy living only happens when you make a difference somewhere, somehow.  If no one needs your help, if you are not setting and reaching goals the emptiness of government-run health care and other programs does not build self-esteem, it destroys it.

There are many doctors who practice sane medical care and help their patients a great deal.  They wonder why someone has headaches, can’t sleep or has poor digestion or bad circulation.  They do not jump in with the latest drug recommended for that symptom.  They wonder why.  They so searching diagnostics.  If you have migraines why take a pain-killer?  Does the pain-killer handle the reason you have headaches?  It does nothing if the reason is your unbalanced hormones or your lack of magnesium or your subluxation.  See?  You need to wonder why and you need to insist your doctors have discovered the basic problems.  When you handle the cause your symptoms vanish and you have no need for drugs.  There is not one drug your body has a shortage of.   They are all toxic to one degree or another.

It Might Be The Drugs...

You have aches and pains and you go to the doc and he says you have fibromyalgia and should take a psyche drug.  When that “treatment” does not work well but gives you more side effects and problems he recommends you see someone because you are now depressed having felt ill for so long.  You “see someone” and they give you another psyche drug and a pain killer.  Now you are often dizzy and feel unstable and you are still in pain but now you have a bigger problem because you are taking addictive drugs.  Sound familiar?
This is malpractice.  Really is, no matter how common.  So start here.  What is fibromyalgia?  Look it up.  Fibro means of, or relating or characterized by fibers.  Myalgia means pain in a muscle or group of muscles.  You have a diagnosis that is just a description of the problem you already knew you had. You have pain in the fibers, muscles.   You went to doctor because you had unsolvable, indescribable pain and he tells you you are in pain.  Is that meaningful?  Do you want to know why?  How will the drugs treat the cause of the pain since he never investigated what might be causing the pain.  Were you checked for Lyme disease?  Did you have a thyroid or other hormone evaluation?  Are you usually dehydrated or deficient in minerals?   Did you discuss your old injuries?   Did he refer you to a physical therapist or chiropractor?  Did you get the idea you would be on medication the rest of your life?  Do you realize he may just be giving you the treatment in “the guidelines” for your symptoms?  Do you realize these very same drugs are known to cause suicide and homicidal ideation?  If you are taking a cocktail of drugs no doctor on the face of the earth can predict what might happen when you mix two together yet it is the primary stock and trade of the medical care you find in most offices in the US.

The US is 4.5% of the world population yet we take 90% of the world’s stimulants, 63% of the world’s anti psychotics, 51% of the world’s antidepressants.  We spend more on disease care than most countries yet rank lower than most developed nations in health outcomes.  Could it be that drugs are not the answer to what ails us?  Could it be that drug based treatments are making us worse, not better? 

I want to live in in a society where most of us feel good so the crabbiness and ill will dies down.  I want to live in a society where people are at peace pursuing their business and personal goals and winning.  I want to live in a society where mass murders do not occur because people are drug free and too busy and happy to contemplate such things.
