Hearing is Selective
submitted by: admin on 09/22/2013
A study published in Psychological Science in August of 2013 documented that we focus our hearing on familiar voices over those of strangers. We also can ignore familiar voices better...just ask my wife, Vicki! Sometimes we can hear but we don't listen.

submitted by: admin on 09/24/2013

High Dose Statins Associated with Increased Risk of Diabetes
submitted by: admin on 09/24/2013
A meta-analysis showed that high dose statin therapy as primary prevention caused an increased risk for type 2 diabetes. The article published in JAMA goes on to say that treatment of 32,000 non-diabetics with 5 years high dose statin treatment caused 149 more cases of type 2 diabetes, but 416 fewer cardiovascular events.This is a very misleading journal article...

HMO Medicine, Consequences of Insufficient Time
submitted by: admin on 11/24/2024
We are losing personalized care with HMO medicine. The one size fits all approach, lack of personal continuity, and fragmented care is now what is offered. Medicine is becoming a job rather than a passion.

Holistic Nutrition with Geoffery Marx
submitted by: admin on 09/24/2013
Nutrition is important in itself, but it needs to be applied to the whole person to meet them where they are. There is a lot of conflict in the "right" diet. Starting with how people relate to food is often complicated but very necessary. Nutrition is about healing through food. Local, seasonal, organic food is important but who you eat with and how...

We already know that children who are exposed to antibiotics at an early age may be associated with obesity in their early years. However, this study is the first to show that offspring of pregnant mothers who take antibiotics during the second or third trimester have an 86% increased risk of becoming obese by age 7 compared to those mothers not taking antibiotics....
How Important is Blood Sugar Control in Type 2 Diabetes
submitted by: admin on 10/22/2018
Scientists at Tufts University School of Medicine claim that the primary goal of treatment in type 2 diabetes is no longer blood glucose control. They published this work in the February 2014 issue of the journal, American Family Physician. Doctors have been imprinted with the concept that control diabetes and you'll control its complications; while...
How Many Influenza Deaths in Children were there in 2010?
submitted by: admin on 11/24/2024
The CDC reported there were 115 deaths in kids under the age o 18 in the year 2010. A closer look reveals that half of these deaths (58) were in kids who were immunocompromised, so the vaccine would not likely have been of any benefit. Of those who died, about 1/3 were immunized, which means that the vaccine did no good. Now we're down to 38 kids under the...
How Much Vitamin D Do You Need?
submitted by: admin on 06/05/2016
There is an epidemic of vitamin D deficiency because we don't get enough sun from 10-2:00. UVB rays are not present at other times & they don't go through glass, clothing, sun block, or clouds. We need 10-30 minutes on a large surface area depending on our skin pigmentation and age. There is also a pandemic of osteoporosis, diabetes, hypertension,...
How Much Vitamin D is Too Much?
submitted by: admin on 09/24/2013
We know that too little vitamin D is not healthy, but how about too much? Until recently, it has been believed that megadoses of vitamin D might not be a good idea, but that it was relatively harmless. However, a study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism looked at 250,000 people from Denmark showing that levels below 20 nmol are...
How ObamaCare is Affecting Doctors, Patients and the Practice of Medicine
submitted by: admin on 09/24/2013
ObamaCare, or the Affordable Care Act, will bring 50 million new people into the Medicaid program, but who will pay for this and who will take care of them? Most MDs cannot afford to treat patients in Medicaid because reimbusement for services is far too low. The quality of care will drop and access to care will take time to take effect.
We're...
How Safe Are Newly Approved Drugs?
submitted by: admin on 11/24/2024
New drugs are the poorest tested and Americans are the guinea pigs for the first few years after release. Most new drugs have new side effects reported and 20% wind up off the market or with black box warnings. The FDA does not regulate Big Pharma and has a conflict of interest position with them
How Safe are X-rays?
submitted by: admin on 09/24/2013
Doctors rely on x-rays in a lot for diagnostic purposes. They do a lot of very good things, particularly in trauma situations. They can tell us if something is fractured, or if there is an organ that is ruptured, or if there is some bleeding internally. They are not necessarily all that safe, and there are a lot of complications from x-rays that we need...
