Chlorophyll Can Help Prevent Cancer
submitted by: admin on 05/27/2016
Chlorophyll protects against cancer when tested against the relatively low levels of carcinogens usually found in our environment. However, at high concentrations it actually increases cancer growth! It is interesting how nature produces our food in that it has chemicals that are clearly carcinogenic in them, but also includes the antidote, chlorophyll....
Cholesterol Confusion with Len Saputo, MD
submitted by: admin on 08/14/2017
Cholesterol is related to but not the direct cause of arteriosclerosis, heart disease, or strokes. We cannot live without cholesterol; we must have it to make cell membranes, vitamin D, many hormones, many neurotransmitters, and bile salts. Yet it is related to heart disease.
In general, the higher the cholesterol the worse the risk for heart disease....
Chronic Illnesses Require Chronic Solutions with Ofer Erez
submitted by: admin on 11/22/2024
A quick fix for chronic problems is not often realistic. Being consistent to neutralize our trouble is the key. Stress is another problem that takes a consistent effort. The wellness buffer and looking at underlying problems is discussed.
Chronic Problems Need Chronic Solutions with Ofer Erez
submitted by: admin on 11/22/2024
Doing a little every day to deal with stress or pain is more realistic to resolve problems that have been present for a long time. It may be possible to deal with symptoms of chronic disease quickly, but the body needs time to recover.
Co-Enzyme Q10, Statins, Muscle Pain, and the Heart
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
Statins block both cholesterol and co-enzyme Q10 production. We need co-Q10 to make energy and when levels are low it can lead to congestive heart failure. It can also lead to muscle pains, the release of myoglobin and renal insufficiency.

Codex Alimentarius with Dr. Richard Kunin
submitted by: admin on 11/22/2024
The government is regulating medicine in ways we wish they wouldn't. There has been a lot of controversy about where medicine should go and how it should function. Unfotunately, a lot of the economics of medicine dictates how medicine is practiced.
In this Prescriptions for Health Fastrack with guest Dr. Richard Kunin, Dr. Len looks at "Codex...
Coenzyme Q10 Improves Hypertension and Congestive Heart Failure
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
Recent data has documented once again that coenzyme Q10 improves hypertension and can prevent congestive heart failure. It can improve cardiac output by as much as 39% and significantly increases exercise capacity of patients with all levels of congestive heart failure. It has many other functions such as increasing HDL cholesterol, immunity, and arterial elasticity...
Collaborative Health Care
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
The best care combines the brilliance of hi-tech mainstream medicine with the low-tech of ancient indigenous healing systems. Never before have we had this opportunity. There is enough disease to go around but not enough solutions.
Colon Cancer Screening
submitted by: admin on 02/17/2015
Screening for colon cancer is controversial even though we are advised to have a colonoscopy at age 50 as a routine. However, in asymptomatic people the risk of perforation or GI bleeding offsets the benefits. The role of other screens such as occult blood in the stool, barium enemas, sigmoidoscopy and virtual colonoscopies is discussed.
Colonoscopy Screening Questioned
submitted by: admin on 06/18/2016
The Journal of the National Cancer Institute published an article saying that colonoscopy for primary screening might be going too far. I agree! The benefits, harms, and costs have not been determined. Checking the stool for ocult blood and flexible sigmoidoscopy have been shown to be of value but there's no data showing that colonoscopy gives additional...
Coming to Terms with Shame and Aggression with Matthew Fox
submitted by: admin on 11/22/2024
The hidden spirituality of men highlights the ten archetypes that describe how they operate in life. Ostracizing is the origin of shame, of not belonging. The ways we are not part of community is reviewed. Wholeness has been the way of our ancestors. Aggression is also something we have inheirited; we need to deal with this and use it wisely.
Common Drugs Linked to Cognitive Decline
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
Medications with anticholinergic activity, which include many drugs taken by older adults, cause cognitive impairment. Over the counter sleeping aids such as Excedrin PM, Nytol, Sominex, Tylenol PM, and Unisom are especially problematic. Other drugs include Paxil, Detol, Demerol, and Elavil. Anticholinergics work by blocking the brain's neurotransmitter,...
Community as a Healer with David McArthur

Connection leads to community and it is healing. Love, caring, compassion will spark authentic behavior and build community.
Comparison Shopping by Doctors Saves Hospital Costs
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
Physicians are primarily concerned with providing the best laboratory tests and patient care possible, and cost is not a huge consideration. A study published in Internal Medicine in April of 2013 showed that if hospitals would post the cost of tests on lab requisitions that MDs would pay more attention to ordering fewer and less expensive tests. In...
Components of Care with Doug Boyd
submitted by: admin on 11/22/2024
Caring for someone can be active, supporting, being present. It is hard to give what you don’t have. Compassion, attentiveness, respect and empathy are an acronym: CARE. True care is like the sun, it radiates unconditionally.
Conflicts of Interest in Health Care Reform
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
True health care reform will never make it to the table when the insurance industry and Big Pharma continue to pour billions of dollars into stopping Congress from addressing this issue. What we will see is a minimum of insurance reform.
Conflicts of Interest with Pink Ribbon Leaders
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
Most people think that "Pink Ribbon" leaders are doing a great job in helping prevent the breast cancer epidemic. However, they are sponsored by cosmetic companies that include products that cause cancer; this includes Estee Lauder, Avon, and Revlon. Breast Cancer Awareness Month was started by a drug company, Astra Zenica, that sells chemotherapy...
Congestive Heart Failure
submitted by: admin on 02/19/2015
Congestive heart failure develops if there is sufficient death of heart muscle (myocardial infarction) and subsequent inability of the remaining normal heart tissue to pump enough blood to the body. Tissues that die obviously cannot contract, but there are also areas around the infarction, called the peri-infacrtion area, that are in shock and may not be...
Congestive Heart Failure: Nutritional Support
submitted by: admin on 02/20/2015
Congestive heart failure is the result of sufficient energy. Ankle swelling is an early sign of CHF. Acutely drugs are paramount and work very well. ATP production is dramatically low. A number of nutrients help our mitochondria produce energy better. Statins have the potential to lower coenzyme Q10 and create energy deficient states.
