Suddenly, out of nowhere, we seem to be facing what are being called "drug shortages" for some chemotherapy drugs, certain antibiotics, ADHD drugs, some anesthetics, and even electrolye solutions. Sounds fishy to me! While it is difficult to be certain, the lack of respectable ethics of Big Pharma makes one wonder what is going on. Could it be that...

  According to the December 2012 issue of PLOS ONE, Iron plays a key role in metabolism that leads to bacteria and human beings competing to prevent the other from obtaining it. Bacteria are obligated to acquire iron to gain foothold to grow in host tissues. Cancer cells also sequester iron more effectively than normal cells. This is one of the reasons...

Perhaps the best treatment widely available in clinical practice comes from chiropractic manipulation of the cervical spine and the TMJ joint.

A study published in JAMA in May of 2005 showed that just 3-5 hours of walking at 2-3 mph reduced deaths by 50% for women with hormone sensitive breast tumors. There was an absolute 6% decrease in mortality at 10 years. A second study published...

In a commentary by Eric Topol, MD, in May of 2015 in WebMD, he stated that there is more harm than good for screening mammography...and Vicki and I agree! He reported that all evidence from 1960-2014 for 10,000 women screened annually for 10 years, there are only 5 deaths. However, there were more than 6100 false positive tests that led to additional imaging...

There are amazing CAM therapies that are unknown in the US. Chemo works if it is used correctly. An example is a test in Germany that identifies the chemo that works for the primary tumor and also for its metastases. Insulin potentiated therapy and hyperthermia are also discussed.
