Alzheimer’s – Part 2

 Last issue I talked about Alzheimer’s as fundamentally a brain inflammation disease – the best remedy for which is to not get brain inflammation in the first place.  Eating only fresh, non-toxic foods, avoiding poisons, and moving most of the day will do this for you.  But what do you do if it is already too […]

Alignment with Natural Law

Happy New Year! 2010 is upon us.  A new chance to start fresh with our lives.  I hope your holidays were excellent; mine were.  I still have one party left to attend.  In another week my family is gathering to celebrate my mother’s 80th birthday – Congratulations mom.  Where do the years go?

The Heart of the Holidays

As we move into winter our days are getting shorter.  Sunlight, the basic source of the energy for life on this planet, decreases more and more daily.  We feel this loss of life right down to our bones (as our vitamin D production decreases and melatonin hormone increases.)  Everywhere life is finishing its cycle and […]

Do you need Antioxidants?

Antioxidants are all the buzz these days.  They help control inflammation (burning) in different tissues of your body.  It seems every day a new paper is published about some new antioxidant that benefits the body.  This all ties in nicely with the free-radical theory of aging, which basically says that it is oxidation that causes aging.  Anti-oxidants […]

Chiropractor in a bottle?

 A couple weeks ago my front desk person Susie was telling me about her old dog Charlie.  He has been having trouble getting up and moving about.  Susie wanted to know it there was anything I could do for him.  I know a good Chiropractic adjustment can do wonders for an animal, but in California […]

The most common complaint I hear from patients regarding their medical doctor is that no matter how many complaints they may have, if their lab tests are normal, the doctor does nothing.  We know that something is wrong when we feel bad.  That is the whole point to bad feelings – to tell us that something […]
