Your Health and Health Care Reform

Now that health care reform legislation has had some time to digest let’s talk about what we can do.  There will be massive changes in the way you think about your health care and you can start now.  Some people will form membership groups and hire physicians directly.  It is a good idea.  We already have medical tourism and as odd as it may sound to some, the results have been great.  Some US physicians fly with their patients to locations where there are hospitals and the patients bring their families and undergo medical treatment while on holiday in great island locations.  This will become more familiar as people realize they are not going to be approved for some procedures they want as they age.  It already happens that people are told they cannot have procedure they want because they are too old and it isn’t covered.
Apart from those dire scenes there are active interesting things you can do now so you never need heroic medical care.  Bypass surgeries and stents and all that stainless steel will be unnecessary, unneeded if you start taking care of yourself.  Actually it really takes three major actions to insure  healthy aging.  All reducing the reasons people are ill in the first place.  Look to these basics, these fundamentals and you will thrive in your later years while avoiding government health care solutions.

Find a doctor who will help you determine your heavy metal load.  Tiny bits of lead contribute to high blood pressure and heart problems.  Get on  a preventive chelation therapy program.  That is, a comprehensive intravenous chelation program.  Make sure any doctor you go replenishes the nutrient minerals taken out with the chelation treatment.  Sadly, some doctors do not recommend the minerals and other nutrients that are essential in a proper program.  When you reduce heavy metals you eliminate the reason most heart problems are heart problems; you can visit our website to request more data.

Make sure you lower the levels of past street drugs or medical drugs you may have taken and environmental chemicals like pesticides, food additives and artificial ingredients because these can really mess you up.  A comprehensive sauna detoxification program markedly lowers the levels of these substances and prevents neurological problems like Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, chronic headaches and a host of other ailments.

Improve your digestion and detoxify your innards.  Make sure you eliminate any intestinal candidiasis infections.  There are many cleanses you can do, colonics, herbal cleanses, and just plain good eating habits will restore a faulty digestive system.  You take in the things you need for health and a good immune system through your gut so you better be in good shape.  A good digestive system protects you from bacterial infections and viruses and many other problems.  There are interesting diagnostic tests that determine the condition of your digestion and they do not involve scopes!

If you are lowering your heavy metals, reducing the chemical contaminates you carry around, and rebuilding your digestive system you just need a few more things to keep you in good shape.  High grade fresh and organic foods with no additives.  Fresh foods eaten raw or prepared properly in a smart restaurant or at home.  You need to enjoy your food and enjoy the simple things like walks in fresh air and then add the many self-help modalities you are interested in.  There are many that contribute to a very happy life indeed.  You may need bio-identical hormone replacement as you age. 

Happy lives are lived by healthy people who do not need to look to some government-run program to tell them what to do with their health concerns.  I cannot wait to look around in ten years to all my friends who are well and happy and escaping the dire ends predicted by the country’s “experts” with new ways to deliver disease care.

Chelation Therapy for Health

Our interest in our own health and doing something about it is the real health care reform.  Understanding the role inflammation and its causes in the development of problems in aging is something Dr. M has devoted his life’s work to.   When you wonder why something is happening you can often find out.  That curious attitude helps in the practice of medicine. 
Dr. M changed a number of years back – like 40- he wanted to help people avoid the problems of aging and the problems of chronic disease.   No quarrel with common medical care he just noticed drugs and surgery are not the answer to chronic conditions.  The idea that you watch someone’s circulatory problems over time until they become bad enough to warrant surgery didn’t sit well with him.  Why not take proactive preventive actions to stop the progression or slow the progress or change the course of the disease altogether.

He uses chelation therapy to help people eliminate heavy metals, he does not use it because he is contrary.  The clinical results speak for themselves.  Our patients regain their energy levels  and we have clinical results and test results that show the changes.  They off load a major contributing factor causing inflammation and circulatory problems, diabetes, arthritis and generally poor energy output.  Did you know that the heart muscle of people with cardiomyopathy has shown levels of antimony 12,000 times higher than control subjects in a study using biopsy of heart muscle.  The same study showed 22,000 time the level of mercury than controls.   Concentrations of cadmium in the air of 28 cities for which data are available show a marked correlation with death rates from hypertension and arteriosclerotic heart disease.

There are over 4,300 articles in the medical literature connecting small amounts of lead in the body and the development of high blood pressure.    So when you are looking at prevention you need to include treatments because it is not the measure of blood pressure that prevents anything, it is wondering why it is high and doing something to prevent it getting higher and going within normal range.  Lead is not tested with a blood test to look at the serum levels, it needs to be tested a different way as the body removes it from the blood stream as fast as it can.  That’s right,  your body knows more than some doctors.  Your body sequesters the lead to get it out of the way.

We are talking about real health care reform everyday around here and it is a lot of fun!!  Soon.  Coleen

Health Care Reform Moves Forward

With or without us federal health care reform proposals will continue and some news indicates there may be end runs around opposition to the current proposals with slick administrative moves.  Currently in hospitals and care centers some of the measures most disagreeable to me are being implemented without legislation.  It is becoming acceptable for someone other than yourself and your family to take measures to limit your care and the type of care needed to overcome your health crisis.
Health care savings accounts, private contracts with physicians and  a good defense by knowledgeable family members when you are unable to defend yourself are needed.  So is your voice.  What ever your opinion is regarding the role in government interference in private lives and health care decisions you need to make yourself known and heard by your representatives, federal and local.

Make sure you have someone with you at all times in hospital settings to advocate for you when you cannot do so yourself.  It  is clear you need someone standing by you 24 hours a day to monitor what is happening.  There are good hospitals and care centers you can trust but how will you know?  You need to be very active in finding people  you like and trust before you are sick or injured.  Make your preferences known before you need to implement them and it may be important to become more educated about the health issues facing you and your family.  Few of us think or study cancer treatments until we are faced with our own problem, then we are sick, scared and in need of some time to study and think about the best path.  Gather some resources ahead of time, when you are prepared  you seldom have as rough a time.  It can make all the difference in the outcome.

Health Facts, You Might Have Been Mislead

Health news includes research from the New England Journal of Medicine showing that niacin is more effective in improving cardiovascular disease than expensive drugs that lower cholesterol like Zetia and Vytorin.  Physicians wrote prescriptions of more than 29 million contributing to the worldwide sales of 4.56 billion.  When it comes to profits and money motives you could get a bum steer if you do not know how your body works.
When you have disease or just a few symptoms you know something about the normal function of your body has gone awry.  Here is a definition for you from Stedman’s Medical Dictionary: “cholesterol n. A white crystalline substance found in animal tissues and various foods, normally synthesized by the liver and important as a constituent of cell membranes and a precursor to steroid hormones.  Its level in the bloodstream can influence the pathogenesis of certain conditions, such as the development of atherosclerotic plaque and coronary artery disease.”

If you have attended Dr. Maulfair’s seminar you know the rest of the story with many examples and scientific backing that ONLY when the cholesterol is DAMAGED by free radicals does it become a problem and develop into a disease process.  Cholesterol is a major constituent of the membrane around the billions of cells your body is made up of.  The liver makes cholesterol and you need it.  I am not a scientist but I bet if you take a drug that limits cholesterol your liver will make more to keep up.  Stedman’s also has this definition: ” Cholesterolosis n. A condition marked by the abnormal deposition of cholesterol, as in tissues or blood vessels.“  So lets wonder why cholesterol gets deposited in tissues where it does not belong.  The real question to figure out is what is happening in your body and why.  If you just stop to think for a minute you will discover that all drugs are unnatural and considered by your body to be toxins.  They interrupt normal functions you might actually need.  You need to find out WHY you have a non-optimum condition.

There is no substitute for looking for the reasons, causes of problems.  You know this from living life, when you find the right reason why the solution comes naturally.  If you have a leak in your water pipes you cannot add some substance and fix it you have to find it and repair it.  If you fail to find it you still have the leak, and it will progress and create more problems.  When you find the exact cause you have no more leak.  So take the time to study a bit.  Find seminars given by people in health care and look at who is paying for the meeting.  Follow the money.  Pull out the dictionary and start looking up the words dealing with your condition and you will find the real answers.

You are the guinea pig.  Many people have had serious side effects from limiting cholesterol with drugs.  Muscle weakness, liver problems and some digestive problems have been a direct result of drug usage.  There are more studies, you need to look for them and then get busy improving your health with better dietary choices and antioxidants in the proper amounts. 

Good luck -we wish for you a year of knowledge and independence from drugs!!  We will save some health care dollars too!
