Let us begin with a joke, one of my patients brought this to me this week. It was so funny and I have told this to several people. They have had a good chuckle out of it.
The mermaid was going to go to her math class to improve her arithmetic. So, she wanted to dress up nice. What did the mermaid wear to her math class?
The answer is, she wore her algae bra.
Question
“Can "under-treated" Hosimoto thyroid disease cause blood pressure issues? Especially diastolic and when thyroid medicine is properly adjusted, can blood pressure resume to normal limits - in your experience?”
Answer
Hashimoto’s usually is an acute phenomenon where you have the attack to your thyroid of antibodies. This is usually from the gut from an autoimmune. Leaky Gut Syndrome is the general consensus. But it's an autoimmune disease. And so, the initial inflammation creates a storm, a bit of excess thyroid, and you can become hyperthyroid. And that is often associated with a racing heartbeat, anxiety, and diarrhea. You either see your doctor or go to the emergency room and they see the high elevated T3, which is the free T3, the active thyroid hormone. And then, they see the antibodies. And then they realize that your thyroid is inflamed. That is associated often with elevated blood pressure.
But often the vast, vast, vast majority calms down. So, this initial inflammation will go away. Just like tonsillitis will go away, you had the itis of your tonsils, and it calms down. That high blood pressure and the inflammation does go down. And hypothyroidism tends to have a phase where there's lower blood pressure and lower heart rate and weight gain. Now, if it's not chronically addressed, then the thyroid will be unreactive. You'll gain weight, your cholesterol can go up, and your glucose, and metabolism can slow down. And you can develop insulin sensitivity, resistance rather, and gain weight and get blood pressure from those kinds of problems with the slower metabolism.
But my experience is that Hashimoto thyroid disease is not something that evolves into high blood pressure issues, per se. So, I think it's a separate but different track. And so, I'm going to say no. I really don’t think that is related. Those are two different things. And if your doctor, if they are a good doctor, they will figure that out.
Question
“Are the TSH numbers more/or just as important as Free T4 numbers when determining thyroid replacement medications? Are TSH numbers really that important?”
Answer
My answer to that is, I don't think the TSH is important at all. I really only order it because most people are so addicted to looking at thyroid stimulating hormone, TSH. If I have a patient who I am giving thyroid replacement to, that thyroid hormone is the liothyronine. That is the free T3. The free T3. The precursor is the free T4. But you have to go through a step to convert free T4 into the active hormone thyroid of free T3. So, no, I don’t think that free T4 is that important either. It is the active free T3. If I only had one thing to get and to save my patients and just order the free T3. I don’t really care what the free T4 or the TSH. I just think being a good clinician, and checking on your patients, and doing a good example, checking their heart and asking about their diarrhea and their energy and a good clinician should be able to figure out if they are managing you without a lot of fancy laps. But it’s the free T3 that I need, liothyronine.
Question
“My 17 yr old daughter developed a hard lump in her cheek after the wisdom teeth removal. We went back to the dentist and he drained it. It's a little smaller now but still there,3 weeks after the surgery. She developed an infection after the surgery and was put on strong antibiotics. What can I do to help her?”
Answer
Where was the lump? In the sublingual gland, submandibular? Was it in the gum line? Was it in the area of infection? Knowing that would be interesting to help. Fasting always stimulates repair and growth and reorganization. You can go on a fast, taking a high dose of enzymes, the systemic enzymes, Vitalzym, or Vascuzyme. Being on a water fast for two days will always help build up the fight against infection. It will always help with inflammation. And it will always help enzymes to chew up abnormal accumulations of cellular debris in that kind of material. So, that’s what I would do and how I would help her.
Question
“We have discovered a mold problem in our house. What are your thoughts on mold and the dangers of it to the body and mind, as well as how do you treat mold toxicity in addition to having heavy metals present as well.”
Answer
Mold toxicity is very complex. There are many types of molds and many sources for this. Usually, it is a water-damaged home. That really should be a part, when getting the history of your patients, which is to figure out where they live and the kind of stress that they are under. Many people usually will describe their situation often-- I rarely see a doctor, but if anyone was to ask me about my history, I grew up in a one-room basement home. We had very little ventilation. There was a sump pump from the water and a potbelly fireplace. I think that there was a high risk of mold exposure there as well. This can create toxins, plus the mold issue itself. A good remedial cleaning, drying out, getting the plants out, getting the rugs out, taking away curtains, moving to wooden shades, I don’t know what you call those things. But things that are not cloth to get away any of the items that would be the dust that hold the spores.
You would have to go with a doctor who is familiar with testing. And there are various unique sides to this. Infectious disease doctors are trained in mold and mold remediation and mold treatment. So, I would be remiss to tell you that I am a specialist in mold treatment. I am not. But I think the whole lifestyle approach that we do and the attention we spend on your environment is beneficial. But if you truly are having, you know, symptoms associated with it, and kind of universal, autonomic, dysfunctional parasympathetic, dysfunctional symptoms of brain fog, fatigue, exertional fatigue, paraesthesia, headaches, blurred vision problems, restless legs, insomnia, and various skin rashes. These are very non-specific, non-definitive types of symptoms. It takes a while to work through this.
I did recently a review training in mold and mold toxicity. Let me see if I can find the book on that, that I used. It’s called, Break the Mold. That’s the name of the book and the course. This is a naturopathic doctor, Dr. Jill Crista. She does a wonderful job in here with many questions and areas of concern to walk you through the whole tracking and testing that you want in a doctor. This is a course that I recently did. I have to say that she did a very fine job. You can get her program online and go through it. I think doctors who are serious about trying to help people with mold should be familiar with Dr. Jill Crista, naturopathic, and her book called Break The Mold.
That’s the direction that I would go with. I don’t want to represent myself as anywhere near as competent as Dr. Jill Crista. I think she’s up in Washington State. I think there is a place in this local area called Restoration Health. One of the doctors that used to work here, Dr. Faraja, he is at Restoration Health in Irvin or Mission VA Health. They do work with a lot of mold patients. This is where I got the tip on this book and the help that I’m doing. Maybe that would be a help to you to try out Restoration Health and look at this book. You can see if you can work with that.
Heavy metals are a unique toxin. We all have them because they drop down on us from the sky. Just the other day, maybe a week and a half ago, or two weeks ago, Dan Wiggington from GONEngineeringWatch.org gave a speech about a retired environmental scientist who does testing still, and he sampled the recent snowfall in Mount Shasta. That Mount Shasta snowfall, which is fresh, had 161,000 parts per billion. That’s 161,000 parts per billion of the aluminum that was in the fresh snow on top of Mount Shasta. The airplanes and the lines and fake clouds that you see in the sky, these chemtrails are in fact chemical trails with nanoparticulate aluminum oxides, strontium oxide, and barium oxide, and we are all being exposed to these heavy metal nanoparticulate materials that are suspended into the atmosphere and then they kind of float and travel on the jet stream. And then, they can bounce radio waves off of it, heating it up, and manipulate the atmospheric pressures, highs, and lows. They can affect weather trends that way.
So, this has been going on for many decades. And the aluminum lands on the forest, it dries up, and aluminum is an incendiary and a fire that starts to explode, rapidly expanding with the aluminum film that’s out there. So, when you say and bring up heavy metal discussions into the conversation about mold, yes, it’s there. We all have it. And that is what I have really emphasized since every single one of us has the heavy metals in us from eating it, from drinking it, from breathing it in. We must all have a program and training. The American College for the Advancement of Medicine does this training at least annually every November. But I think they're going to have another program this May for doctors who want to do the certification. I think they just contacted me to do another online teaching course to help doctors get trained and certified. It's not difficult and it's quite needed. So, go to ACAM.org. Learn about this training for heavy metal detoxification with ethylene, diamine, and tetraacetic acid.
Question
“I am a 65-year-old male having an issue with urgency to urinate. It seems to be more of a problem as the day progresses. I’m 140 pounds. I drink 90 ounces of water each day. I urinate one to two times a night. PSA 0.7. Any advice?”
Answer
Well, half of a 140-pounds is 70. So, 70 ounces would be the amount of water. You might be drinking a little excess which would put increased pressure on your urinary tract system to eliminate it.
If you are able to go right back to sleep and able to feel refreshed when you wake up in the morning, I don’t see any problem getting up once or two times a night to urinate with a normal PSA like that. You might allow yourself not to drink as much water towards the end of the day. Maybe make the last amount of water you drink around five o’clock. Maybe you’d only wake up once to urinate.
The other thing is, having pumpkin seeds, raw pumpkin seeds. They are not roasted. These raw pumpkin seeds have in it the salt palm metal that acts as an enzyme inhibitor from the conversion processes that testosterone goes through. That is very common in a lot of these male prostate-shrinking, over-the-counter supplements. If you eat about 2 tablespoons of raw pumpkin seeds, that could be enough than paying for fancy bottling and packaging. I don’t think there is anything more beyond what you are saying. Just cut back on your 90 ounces of water. And see how that goes.
I would see a doctor and get your estradiol run. Find out what your serum estradiol is and your serum testosterone is. That kind of stuff.
Question
“Can you please tell us your approach to the workup of a pediatric patient for iron deficiency anemia? Is there an iron supplement for kids you recommend? I looked at the Orthomolecular website and only found the activated iron supplement but it is a capsule form and maybe not be palatable for kids. Is there a chewable or liquid brand you recommend?”
Answer
I believe iron assimilation and metabolism are being very much affected by the corrupted food system that we're feeding our children today, whether it's the grain systems that are glyphosate and they're genetically modified and they're processed. We are eating ultra-processed with trans fatty acids in them creating a chronic bowel impact on the microbiome so that the good bacteria in the gut are just not being populated as well. And many of our children are being born by C-section and that is a very possible mechanism for not having good, seeded probiotics. They're eating so much processed food, they're not getting the fiber, and the prebiotics, and the insoluble fiber that the good bacteria need to eat to survive and help process with vitamin assimilation and absorption and absorption of our minerals. And so, this is a very complex thing rather than just saying to get iron into them. I think we have damaged gut linings in our children.
Therefore, I would begin with the most common things that make them improve. One of them is, if the child is, you know, 3, 4, 5, or 6 years old, let’s say 50 lbs. or less, these children need Vitamin D. I would give them Vitamin D3 2,000-international units. Then do a blood level a month later. See how much 2,000 international units of D3 are and try to get it with K2, and MK7. If that Vitamin D level is 80, you have to get it to this range for these kids. Do a chemistry panel to check the liver enzymes. It is a fat-soluble. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble. If you look at the liver enzymes and they are all normal, then having an 80 level on the lab is a healthy level. Why that? Vitamin D3 is very beneficial in gut health for the absorption and assimilation of minerals and nutrients. And so, it might actually be a Vitamin D chronic deficiency, not so much finding the perfect iron. In fact, you may not need the iron if you can get the child to eat real meat, and real chicken, and real fish, and real pork, and items like that, iron in their food is the best source and the most nutrient-dense kind of food.
The other thing is having B vitamins, and Vitamin B complex. All eight of the B complex. And the most important of these is probably pantothenic acid, which is Vitamin B5. Not a high dose, but a good, methylated B complex. That’s water soluble. So, it's so easy to put methyl B complex, moderate mild doses into a liquid and have them drink it. We have what is called ATP ignite. That is a methylated B complex packet that you put in water. For a child, I would use 1/3 of a packet or a ½ packet with their liquid Vitamin D drops with K2. And check the levels in a month or so with their iron and ferritin. And see if actually their gut biome has improved by them avoiding this junk food and eating real food using D with B vitamins. And that helps synergistically support of gut repair.
We do have a powdered phospholipid and a powdered SBI protect protein which are immunoglobulin proteins that are very beneficial in helping heal the gut. And so, that is the direction I would go in because I'm sure they need gut healing anyway. And rather than looking down the aisle, as if we're allopathic doctors, looking for a bullet or a very special iron, I think is healing the lining of the gut. So, that's the way I do it.
Question
“My mother is a healthy, vibrant 73-year-old with no chronic conditions. Her GP insists she needs a shingles vaccination because of her age. I am trying to talk her out of it because I don't believe in these vaccines. Are my concerns substantiated and what information can I provide her so she can make the best decision?”
Answer
I like to use examples. If you found a company or a group of people operating a criminal syndicate that has been exposed by law enforcement brought to trial and found guilty that their action of their business harmed their customers and even some of them died, many of them died and they just were given a fine rather than prison sentences so that the entire staff of the company didn't have to go suffer anything other than to pay maybe billions of dollars in fines for harming, injuring, and killing people, manslaughter. Then, they have been found again and again to do these kind of things. Why do you think another product that they make would be considered safe and effective if their practices were poor science and cover-up of data that lead to the harm, injury, and death of many people who use their services? I’m talking about the pharmaceutical industry in general, without naming any one of them. But multiple of these groups have the same history, where they're found pushing a product or drug, and the drug then is found to be associated with multiple deaths. And then finally, after years of lawsuits, and Freedom of Information action, and then lawyers pursuing, it's finally discovered that their internal information found they were in fact aware of the risks they were taking with their pharmaceutical product, but they thought the risk was worth the great profits they were making. And so, if 50, or 60,000 people died, it was just the cost of their doing business. So, they get fined, and they were found guilty, and there's no change in leadership or anyone at the helm. And they just go on to their next very merry project.
So, I'm a doctor, and I'm trying to take care of my patients. And I have to ask the question, why would I recommend the use of any of the medications from these businesses that are fined multiple billions of dollars for manslaughter and unlawful deaths without anyone being held criminally culpable or spending a day in jail? So, I don't trust and I think we have lost the trust that we once had in our institutions of the colleges, and their Board of Regents or Directors, and our professorships, and our newspapers, the CDC, the NIH, the Human Health Services. All these great institutions now have eggs on their face. Great journals like the Lancet, The New England Journal of Medicine, and JAMA, have had such horrible retractions of false data being published over the past three years and the concern of the pandemic. I have, and many, many, many of my colleagues have lost our faith in the purveyors of making these drugs and other products, in the training, and the media promotion of this. So, I cannot bring myself to recommend the usage of this. Because in my opinion, it fits the definition, in my humble opinion of a criminal international crime syndicate.
So no, I wouldn't take it. We are paying our taxes and it’s turning into an old buddy's organization where Fauci would have control of tons of billions of dollars for research. I tried to get involved with this on my own new drug investigation to help humanity. But you see, I’m not in the club. Mine is suppositories for EDTA as a new investigational drug and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars trying to develop this. It was doing great, great good things. And long the short of it was it was quashed. And I realized it was a club. And it wasn't about health. It wasn't about reducing all-cause mortality. It wasn't about helping the health and the circulation and basic things because nobody could make a grand profit on this. Nobody. Nobody could make tons of money on this. It would have just been a great help to humanity.
And so, no, I don't support this method of taxing me to pay for research that will give researchers in the club at the CDC and the FDA royalties of those scientists there. And then they get to be put on boards of these companies that are pharmaceuticals. It’s nepotism. It’s a criminal crime syndicate in my opinion.
Question
“I am 53 and have been in menopause for two years. I had my last menstrual cycle over two years ago. I have an 8mm fibroid which had been shrinking since my cycle stopped. I began bio-identical hormone treatment with TLC one year ago. A week ago I started cramping and bleeding similar to a regular menstrual cycle. I continue to bleed. Could this be caused by feeding estrogen to the fibroid? Dr. Kaur has ordered an ultrasound so I should know more next week, but also wanted to get your opinion as I am now concerned.”
Answer
Now, the lining of your uterus is designed to respond to estradiol and hormones, all of your body, your skin, your hair, your muscles, your heart, your bones, your nervous system, all parts of your body are designed to have receptors for estradiol, progesterone, vitamin D, cannabinoids, acetylcholine all over the place. So, we're designed to have these receptors. And the lining of the uterus can also be stimulated by insulin. Is your insulin above 4 in a fasted state? Are you as concerned about your bread, starch, pasta, cracker, bagels, nuts, seeds, yams, potatoes, and rice beans, which all stimulate insulin? That will make a fibroid grow. That will make any tumor grow. That's what makes skin tags grow as we get older on our bodies. Because healing and repair of the skin become disorganized with aging. And insulin is one of the most powerful growth-stimulating hormones and can make a fibroid grow as well. So, let's not blame our natural estradiol.
If you have hormone levels that are measured and these hormone levels are in reasonable ranges and your doctor and you check it as needed once or twice a year, maybe more often, until you get into a steady state. And balanced with progesterone because I believe if you use estradiol, you should use the progesterone that God gave us as well. But you have to have your insulin checked too. And you have to be advised by your doctor to be exercising, drinking water, not eating late, being on a lower carb, or an intermittent fasting style of living, and check all these things together. And then, go from there. It is way, way, way beyond just the name called estradiol.
There's a wonderful book out there that would be helpful in this and that's called, Estrogen Matters. I don’t have the book here. If you go on to our website, TLCdoctors.com, you go to the video section, you’ll see about three years ago, our gynecologist Dr. Mitchell and Dr. Meric were on a podcast, Two Gynecologists Discuss Hormone Treatment. They have a beautiful review of the book when it came out and no estradiol is not considered to be the cause. Hormones are not the cause of any cancers or anything like that. We shouldn't be looking at our lifestyle and eating indiscriminately too many carbs.
Question
“What causes wax build up in the ears? And what is the best way to decrease this?”
Answer
Well, if you keep on jiggling your ear and digging at it with, you know, pencils, or toothpicks, or Q-tips, or your fingernail or your little finger, you're wiggling the canal and the canal itself has little hairs that come down and all around it. God put those there so, God forbid a little bug tried to crawl in your ear at night while you're sleeping, it would jiggle one of those hairs and with the jiggling of the hair, that is the stimulus for wax secretion to occur and that bug would not be able to survive being stuck in wax.
Now, if you're always juggling at your ear, you're going to be making all this wax. Normally, at the rate it's made, this wax dries and flakes out over time. So, the more you go after wax in your ear, the more it's a catch-22 that you'll make it. And you cannot win that war. So, I would suggest, you know, I don't know who the person is, or how bad it is, there's always a bell curve somewhere. You know, two, three standards, four standard deviations on either side, so if you have tons of wax, and you need to help of an ear, nose, and throat specialist to help you clear it out, then you have to do it. But for the vast majority of us, if we'll just not stick anything ever, ever, ever in our ears, it will dry up and flick out on its own.
Question
“Is there anything I can do to stop cataracts or reverse the damage?”
Answer
The things we talk about here, like for instance, we use Juice Plus. Probably the most researched nutraceutical out there that's a powerful antioxidant is the Juice Plus fruits, vegetables, and berries. There are 30 different fruits, vegetables, and berries that are flash-frozen, and screened for any organic pesticide, or fungicide in there. They are dried. The sugar is rinsed out. And so, it’s just left with the phytonutrient concentrate and it has been tested on DNA damage, reduction, cardiac risk factors, improving immune function, and improving children's health. In fact, the children still get it for free for four years. Juice Plus is probably the best antioxidant with high amounts of carotenoids. They are not being discussed by our ophthalmologists. But I’m telling you, almost 30 years ago, we were discussing these facts when it was laughed at by the physician population. I’m glad that many of the physicians today are learning to listen.
At 70 now, I go to see my ophthalmologist. And again, he's so pleased. He doesn't see that aging in my eyes or the eyes of my patients. He loves my patients because they have such youthful eyes. The cataracts stay preserved. EDTA chelation is very important to us prevent cataracts. That improves microcirculation. And if you have healthy circulation and oxygenation, you're not going to be burning the proteins of the lens of your eyes as much.
So, we're all cooking at 98.6 degrees. We are all slowly cooking. And therefore, the proteins can get chunky and clogged up and that's called a cataract. That's called arthritis. That's called degenerative joint disease and on and on. That’s called the brown spots on your skin, that the oxidation burning of these things. So, yeah, I would say EDTA chelation on a rotation basis, good antioxidants, a very, very low-carb diet, drinking a lot of purified filtered water (half your weight as pounds a day), exercising, getting a good night's sleep, and probably some natural hormone replacement. And then, seeing a doctor who checks your insulin, your sedimentation, your HSCRP inflammatory markers as needed, your sticky sugar levels, your fructose (the fruit sugars), it washes those out of you while they are chelating and tell you not to eat late at night. Let your tummy be empty so your body can work on healing you. Those are the things that I would do for cataracts.
Question
“I have long resisted a colonoscopy, as I never really have any bowel issues. I still don't and I'm 76. I am considering a colonic to clean myself out. I have been taking a good pre/probiotic, Probilin and I will continue with it. Also, I am hearing that ionic foot baths can remove some heavy metals. What do you think?”
Answer
I just don't trust these baths. I just don’t see a certificate of controls, trials, or clinician research on it. I didn’t make a heavy study on this. I didn’t invest my time. I’m so involved in a hundred other things, I just have not seen the ionic baths do anything. I’m so familiar with chemistry and the reactions of heavy metals and reduction-oxidation, that I could see easily how you could have a change in the color of the water, the fluidity of it, all this kind of stuff with many other things other than a metal coming out of your feet that way. So, I just don't have respect for it. I would love to be wrong, I could be wrong, but I don't think anyone has proven it.
So, unfortunately, the gold standard remains EDTA chelation therapy and peeing it out. I think you can ground yourself, I do believe in going outside and walking on the beach where the salt water will be a nice Earth electric energetic electron discharge. I believe standing on a patch of wet grass. And be in your bare feet that can do the exact same thing as being on the beach. So, if we would walk with our bare feet every day, a little bit of the mildew, the moisture and that would be helpful.
But yeah, I just don't see those foot ionic rounds, removing heavy metals. It needs to be researched. All this money, billions and billions that Fauci spent on, we couldn’t get a million to do 500 patients and do some simple studies? Give me a break. They don’t want that knowledge. They don’t want to know it.
Question
“My daughter is 36 yrs old and has very painful periods. She got off birth control pills two months ago and decided to try progesterone cream (Koro)which did not go well with her. She felt irritable, and moody and broke out with acne. She is B negative. She just had blood work done (didn’t fast). Her progesterone level was 6.09. Testosterone Free Calcul was 0.39 testosterone total 14.55 and her estradiol was 83.3! The doctor told her that her progesterone level was way too high and to stop using the cream. What are your thoughts on these numbers?”
Answer
That is absolute idiocy. I can’t believe they would say a 6.09 progesterone level is too. That is foolishness.
Well, I think all her numbers sounded good. You know, it would have been interesting, she’s 36. What part of her cycle was she in? That would have been interesting, what day of her cycle. Day 1 is the first day that you menstruate.
There are some women, very rare, but there are some women that just don't tolerate exogenous natural progesterone well. It just is what it is. I don’t know everything. I’m not God. And I just don’t know which woman will be that woman who is sensitive to progesterone. So, women ovulate. They make their own progesterone. If you eat butter and fat with cholesterol in it, some of the first cleavages we do, hydrolyzation of that cholesterol in the butter or the fat makes your pregnenolone DHEA, which goes on to be processed into our hormones, progesterone, estradiol, testosterone, things like that. And so, I don’t think we understand why that is. I wish I could. I just don’t have the answer on that. That will be something that I will have to ask God when I get to heaven. Just trying to figure that out. This has plagued me for more than 35 years of doing natural hormones, why there is that tiny, tiny percentage of women who seem to be so sensitive to outside, extra progesterone?
And it could be she's putting it on at the wrong time, I would only be using the progesterone on day 15 of her cycle, 15 days from the day one of her period to the 25th. So, she should only be using it from day 15 to 25. That's when if she ovulated that's when it would normally show up. So, if she's taking it at other times during the cycle, that could be one of the reasons why she reacted poorly. But that's my thoughts on that.
Question
“I have thyroiditis and 2 benign nodules. My Dr is talking about iodine uptake or surgery. Or killing the 1/2 of thyroid I have left. My levels are hyper so meds, methimazole, are also an option. What are your thoughts? After a colonoscopy is it normal to be left with blotting, gasses, and belly pain even after 2 weeks? Is my natural flora gone? I have been taking probiotics. Anything else I can take?”
Answer
I like methimazole. I really do like that. I am not the specialist. I’m not an oncologist. If they think those nodules in your thyroid have a potential cancerous activity that they need to be quieted down immediately, you have to work with the knowledge that you have. I don’t know exactly what is going on with you. I can’t give you personal advice on what to do.
But I do like methimazole.
I would say no to still being left blotting, gassy, and having belly pain after 2 weeks. Eating foods that have fiber, and insoluble fibers in them so you feed your own bacteria, like artichokes, inulin-rich foods. Those are the probiotic insoluble fibers. That’s what I think would be beneficial.
If it bugs you, you need to see a doctor and have that addressed.
Question
“A person with liver cancer that has spread to the colon and now has carcinomatous meningitis, and chemo, can they come back from this or is this a really bad outcome? Can lower back pain radiate to the lower right side of the abdomen from sciatica?”
Answer
It’s a really bad outcome, yes. Is it possible to come back, I have seen the miraculous happen and I have seen Stage 4 colon cancers come back. Why isn’t research money going to that instead of individual chemotherapy drugs? You know the answer to that. It’s a racket. I have seen tremendous things happen. I never give up hope.
Question
“What can you tell us about “grounding“ or earthing where you are barefoot on the grass? I hear it is supposed to be very healthy and healing. What are your thoughts about it and its benefits?”
Answer
Well, we are electrochemical beings. And we have to pass on our electrons, they're in a constant swing and synergy in our body. And these are making messages to build and repair and produce new molecules. And these electron flow patterns can get built up and we can become full of excess negative ion electrons. And that negativity can create havoc to our health if we don't have a discharging and a flow cycle for electrons that are excessive. And one of the ways to do that is to take your shoes off and to go outside on the wet grass in the morning and let your feet get into the soft wet grass and stand there. Wiggle your toes in the grass and kind of rock around, and walk around on that wet grass for a few minutes. That's called grounding. You've discharged into the earth, your negative ions.
If you swim in the saltwater ocean, you do it. Now, saltwater pools don't do that because there isn't a connection with the earth because it's all wrapped up and insulated in the pool system. So, you have to be on the earth and dirt or you have to be on the sand in the ocean where this is happening. And that is the whole idea of the electron flow of the vibrational medicine. Healing is electrical in every bit of the word. And you have to be a bit of an electrician to be a doctor to help people.
Question
“I was wondering what form of iodine is best for breast health and breast cancer prevention. Also, what is molecular iodine?”
Answer
Well, there is the reduction in the oxidized form of iodine. It is a 12.5-milligram capsule, i-Throid. It is a 12.5-milligram tablet Iodoral. Most people need to take about 12 and a half to 25 milligrams a day. And you can get a 24-hour urine collection of urine with a challenge test where you take 50 milligrams and you collect all your urine and then in that 24 hours you took all four tablets, four times 12.5 is 50 milligrams. Then we see how much you peed out. If you don't pee out a lot of that iodine and then your body was so deficient in iodine and held on to it all or most of it. That is how we know you are deficient.
Question
“What are your feelings on adding testosterone to my estradiol and progesterone? I'm 63 and have been off my hormones for a few years due to moving out of state. Did not have testosterone previously but the new Dr wants to add it.”
Answer
I'm all in favor of testosterone and one of the ways I like to make it available is through using DHEA 25 milligrams, 50 milligrams, 50 milligrams, 10 milligrams, and 5 milligrams, which is converted in women, into testosterone. I am all in favor of it to work on building up your muscles. So, go ahead and add it. Always have it tested.
Question
“I was diagnosed with high liver enzymes, should I be concerned and how can I treat this condition? I also have Hypothyroid Diagnosis: 790.5 (ICD-9-CM) - R74.8 (ICD-10-CM) - Elevated liver enzymes.”
Answer
Okay, so I'm going to say drinking alcohol is one of the causes of viral illnesses, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. And then, probably one of the more common ones today is our diet, high in carbs, where people are getting these fatty livers, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and the fructose in these high fructose corn syrup, juices, and soda pops, and drinks that have high fructose corn syrup in it. It's all processed in the liver. And it promotes uric acid formation, gout, arthritis, and hyperlipidemia. It promotes high LDL, it promotes the uric acid I said and enzymes damage.
So what would I do? I would go on lipoic acid, 600 milligrams, probably twice a day. I would totally avoid everything with fructose in it. No fruit, no juice, no soda pops, no candy, and no sugar, because half of the molecule of sugar, is cane sugar. It's a dimer, two molecules, one's glucose, the other is fructose. And the fructose is really the one that's doing the greatest amount of harm promoting fatty liver disease. And it's harming our children and our children are in the highest ever experience of gastroenterologists and surgeons of getting liver transplants because we're giving our kids, our grandkids, apple juice, and orange juice, and soda pops, and all these sugar treats. And we're training these kids to become addicted to fructose that is processed, just like alcohol in the liver, and training them to become little addicts to it. That’s how I would look at that. Yes, I would recheck your liver enzymes in a month. They should be coming down immediately.
Question
“The other day I had a small coffee, and later ate one egg. But while I was eating, I started feeling weird, like a panic attack. Rapid heart rate, shaky, sweaty. It went away later. What are your thoughts on that?”
Answer
Well, it could have been anything, it could have been the coffee. God forbid the egg was not clean or something. You would have to see this pattern come and go in cycles and see your doctor about it. An isolated episode like that, I wouldn’t make much of especially if it went away a little while after that. If it’s a pattern, see your doctor.
Question
“Regarding uterine cysts, do you think fibrinoid enzymes would work for dermoid fibroids?”
Answer
Yes. A very low-carb diet, intermittent fasting, and progesterone blocks the estrogen stimulation of fibroid growth, and enzymes help chew them up, blocking with a very low-carb lifestyle, going carnivore-like. It will stop the insulin stimulation of fibroids. Drinking plenty of water, getting a good night's sleep, etc. Doing another pelvic ultrasound and tracking them in four to six months is how I would do it.
Question
“My friend is going to have a C-section next week. Was wondering about help getting her milk going good. She learned that C-sections makes it difficult to get a going well. “
Answer
I think that’s a lot of hype. I don’t think that’s going to be the problem. If she’s drinking lots of water, I really mean, let’s say with pregnancy she’s weighing up to 150 to 160 lbs., maybe more, she has to be drinking 80 ounces, 96 ounces a day of water. I would be taking probiotics because they are doing the surgery and probably giving her antibiotics. I would eat as much meat, fish, chicken, turkey, and beef to raise up her protein levels so she can heal well. And I just think if she was on Juice Plus, she would get a powerful antioxidant. She needs to be on vitamin D, at least 5000 international units a day. She needs to be on a good complete multivitamin-mineral once a day. And then, after the C-section, she can start systemic enzymes, which are anti-inflammatory, and that really helps the milk letdown. I had C-sections unfortunately, and I used probiotics and water and enzymes. I had no trouble breastfeeding.
Question
“I have watery wavy lines in my left eye on the left of the retina. It went away. But now my left gland is swollen right under my ear. What could that be?”
Answer
Well, you know, I would have to see and there are many things but these glands back here are post auricular lymph nodes. They are draining your scalp and your hair and your follicles and all the bacteria and stuff that can get into your hair roots and stuff like that. So, it should go away. And I wouldn't be rubbing it, the more you rub it, you just get a reactive inflammation from it. If it doesn't go away with a healthy diet, fasting, enzymes, lots of water, and not eating late, and go away within the month, then I would have a doctor check it. These are post auricular lymph nodes. They are supposed to be there. And they should go away in a month or six weeks.
Question
“I've tried the water fast for detox and brain healing. But I always feel so much more disoriented when I fast. Do you push through that? Or is that the body telling you fasting is not beneficial for you?”
Answer
In general, I push through it. And for most people, we just have to push through it. And I, but I wouldn't want to tell you I can talk to my patients, and I know what's going on. I don't know if you're an insulin-dependent diabetic or what your personal situation is. You have to work with your doctor and know that if you're in general good health, you can work through a two-day three-day fast. We're all designed to be able to do that. So, I tell you this is probably a detox withdrawal phenomenon.
Question
“Do you believe in vaccinating pets?”

Question

Question
“To your knowledge, does ivermectin and NCQ help treat colorectal cancer that has metastasized to the lungs? My sister’s husband was just diagnosed and looking at some options?”
Answer
I was talking with my oncologist I work with here Dr. Tariq Mahmood new lung cancer diagnosis and we agreed that we're going to put her on high-dose vitamin C, the low-carb diet, and the ivermectin. So, yes, there is very interesting research and, and stuff that needs to be done in this with very encouraging potential. No, I don't want to give you false hope. But I think it's reasonable to look at that. Yes. And it can be done parallel to other more standard therapies.
