Laboratory Test Will Determine Your Micronutrient Requirements

Levels of certain nutrients have historically been measured in the serum (blood.) Static measurements, such as serum assays, can be transitory, reflecting an individual’s nutritional status over a narrow window of time. Technology developed by the University of Texas and offered by Spectracell Laboratories, measures the intracellular function of selected vitamins, mineral, antioxidants, and other essential micronutrients within your white blood cells (lymphocytes). Since lymphocytes carry an individual’s nutritional history for a period of four to six months, these tests can reveal nutrient status over a period of time. The results obtained uncover deficiencies that standard serum tests may miss. If not corrected, such deficiencies could impair your health by contributing to the overall development and/or progression of chronic disease. (more…)

Amazing ! ! ! ! !

In just a few minutes I can present the “facts” to most lay people, and they can immediately grasp the significance that a poison has been implanted in their mouth without their knowledge or consent. Naturally, they are unhappy about this and would like to see the practice stopped.

Why is it then, that trained, educated professionals still ignore and discount these “facts” and even go so far as to place paid advertisements in the newspapers to assure the public of the safety of this poison??? The legal opinions right now seem to be indicating that this is frank negligent misrepresentation, possibly consumer fraud, and this action may have serious consequences.

What are some of the “facts” I tell my patients? (more…)

No one is exempt. That is right. From babies, preschoolers, students, young people, adults, baby boomers and grandparents, all of us have been exposed to toxic metals such as lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury. The top 20 Hazardous Substances in the US 2005 according to the CERCLA Priority List of CDC/ATSDR/NEHC Hazardous Substances name as # 1 Arsenic, # 2 Lead, # 3 Mercury and # 7 Cadmium. Toxic metals, if not identified and treated, can lead to heart disease, hypertension, cancer, neurological problems, allergies, chronic fatigue, diabetes, arthritis, asthma, kidney problems, auto-immune diseases and even death. An article found in Townsend Letter for Doctors and Patients June 2003 written by Morton Walker, DPM states that “toxic metal pollution is the most frequent reason for the onset of chronic degenerative diseases and loss of life among North Americans”. Metal poisons are ubiquitous on the continent, ranging from highly populated cities to the most isolated of rural communities, even in pristine Alaska . Lets look at each of these metals examining their sources and how they might affect one’s health.
