Question

“A friend almost finished with chemotherapy for throat cancer had to stop because of low platelets. Would IV vitamin C help? How would it help, and is it safe during chemo?”  [0:01:30]

Answer

Well, we've always, for many decades, used high-dose vitamin C therapy alongside chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. In general, oncologists tell their patients not to do this because it isn't studied, so they'll make the judgment since there's no study formally published. There are, but they're not published in journals that are read by most of the standard oncological practicing physicians. But they'll say not to do it. But in general, there are patients who go to clinics that will provide the nutrient immune support and detoxing support for them along with their chemotherapy, and they will get these high-dose vitamin C chelation therapies and the like. We do this to try and help the patients maintain a healthy baseline when they're off their chemotherapy. We restore their immune system so that they don't miss their therapy and don't have to stop. So, so often they're trying to pulse these cancer toxic chemical therapies to try and have a metered rate at which they're killing them off. If you have to stop it because you're getting so much collateral damage and your own immune system failing, you're starting to lose the war, so to speak. 

So, we believe and have seen, and my experience here for all these decades that high-dose vitamin C is a tremendous immune support. Very helpful in your healthy cells restoring their capacity to function and do their normal duties, including your bone marrow. So, I would recommend that you find a good integrative doctor. I would share that with your oncologist that you're doing it. If you go on the internet and look up Dr. Thomas Levy, he's both a lawyer and a medical doctor, and he has written books and is very supportive of high-dose vitamin C. If you look up the Riordan Clinic, and that's Dr. Hunninghake. He's the new leader because Dr. Riordan passed away a decade or two ago. The Riordan Clinic is in either Kansas or, yeah, I think it's Wichita, Kansas, Riordan Clinic. Yeah. And it's in Wichita, I believe, Kansas. And it's been there for 40, 50-plus years. It has taken all these kinds of cancer patients and supported their immune systems to maintain their immune baseline to tolerate and work with the oncology's plan for managing the cancer while we're trying to help all the healthy cells as integrative doctors in support. 

There's another place that you could go, another oncology-trained location. This is Dr. James Forsyth, and he is in Reno, Nevada. Now, I do believe, you know, he was in his early 90s and I believe he just passed away last month, but he was an oncologist and opened up his integrative oncology clinic in Reno, Nevada in 1988, I believe, and he has trained many physicians in the. Integrative use of high-dose vitamin C, chelation therapy, glutathione, and various nutrient IV supportive therapies with people with special diseases/cancer. And he has the largest recorded database of stage IV cancers, and their outcome, we're talking in many hundreds, you know, maybe a thousand at this point. I went to his clinic and worked with and around his place, saw what was going on, and I believe at that time he had maybe 700 patients in his case study series to supply, and the results were extremely remarkable as far as life extension goes. So, that's my answer to you. Yes, it will help. 

How does vitamin C help? Well, vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and it helps to reduce and restore the values of other antioxidants like vitamin E and their roles in cell metabolism. So, it is such a small molecule. It is mistaken for glucose. We believe the cancer cells are operating on a fermentative anaerobic engine in their mitochondria to process their energy needs so they don't need oxygen, and they gobble up glucose tremendously. They're very inefficient in that sense, where a normal, healthy person with a good blood supply has good oxygen, will take in glucose and one molecule will produce like 36 ATP energy units or the fermenting cancer cell will take up a glucose and only make two or three energy units. So, these cancer cells suck up sugar. And since vitamin C looks like sugar almost identically, in fact, if you take a high dose of vitamin C IV and then you do a finger prick for glucose as if you were a diabetic, checking your blood sugar on a finger prick, it'll read the vitamin C now in your blood in the 300 because we get your millimolar levels up to that range so it can flood all your cells. When it floods the cancer cells, it takes up a and high dose of Vitamin C requires catalase, which you have all over your body in every cell to help handle it because it produces hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, and that's part of the antiviral, anti-cancer, antibacterial effect of metabolism of vitamin C. However all cancer cells don't have catalase. So, those cells that just drink in the vitamin C can't process it safely, and so they wind up getting oxidatively killed, and that's the killing mechanism of vitamin C, only in the cancer cells operating under the anaerobic fermentation-type scenario. So that's how that is. 

Question

“Hi, Dr. Rita. What can I do for eczema on the eyebrows?”  [0:09:17]

Answer

Well, right off the bat, I would get the Clinician's Preference Oils, parent essential oils, and by parent essential we mean the only human, two essential fatty acids, which are linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid. Those two essential fatty acids are the only fatty acids that help make the cell membrane and make healthy skin with nice tight junctions and good skin connection cell membranes. When you don't eat enough egg yolks and meat and chicken and pork and eggs and egg yolks, these things, then you don't get enough linoleic/alpha-linolenic. You can get some seeds, but in general, we get it from the animal kingdom. We then don't have enough for healthy cell membranes, and it makes your cells weaker to succumb to any insult disease, or damage. So, let's say you have inflammation in your gut from having the American standard diet and then you have a lot of holes poked in the lining of your gut. You know how I always show this picture of the broken cell membrane there and then the healthy cell membrane? So this is the broken one and that's the healthy one. And you have to eat enough fat and protein, so that you can fill those holes in and have a nice healed membrane like that. So, your eczema is literally looking like that. 

So if you could become a carnivore for a couple of months, that'll greatly help you, and I mean a strict carnivore for a couple of months. Find out your blood type. But the parent essential oils will give you that alpha-linolenic and linoleic acid to help the junctions of those things that meet together hanging in the cell membranes and just rub that so it comes as a liquid, Clinician's Preference Oil and it comes as capsules. I have the capsules at home. And so, if I ever have an itch or a dry spot on my skin, I'll just pop with a little needle, one of my capsules, and I'll put a drop or two, just like a moisturizer so my skin doesn't look like old lady's 70-year-old skin. I'll put it on. Eczema runs in my family. My mother had this. And so that's what I did. Especially when she was in her late 80s before she died, we would do this, and her skin was pristine before she passed. Not one-bed ulcer for all the time she had been stuck laying in the bed. So, yeah, it's called Clinician's Preference Oil, liquid or get the capsules. I take the capsules every day of my life. I take four of them. And I eat mostly as a carnivore. I usually only eat one meal a day. And that's how I would do it. And I would just rub it on your elbows, wherever the eczema is. Okay. Eyebrows. Anywhere. Okay. 

Question

“My 23-year-old daughter has been having cold sores recurring every month since October. The sores have been spreading around the eyes, eyebrows, and neck. The pain has been very severe! She has been to urgent care twice, both times doctors wouldn't listen to her and prescribed antibacterial drops/oral meds. It appears she needs antiviral medicines. Please help her!”  [0:12:41]

Answer 

Well, I don't know who, you know, she's 23. You know, blood type matters. I like to know blood type because it helps me get a better idea about your body's ability to digest and make food your medicine. A's, as a class, don't digest as well, so they have a much harder time making food to become their medicines. But in general, what I would do is as long as you're sure that this is not shingles or a herpetic, and anything near the eyes, I would always see the doctor and make sure it's not involving the eye itself because then that could really become a serious and even blinding problem. The recurrent viral sores, typically around the mouth or the nose, could be secondarily infected syphilis, and we would have to give an anti-staph, antibacterial. But the Argentyn spray is what I would use. And we have it as a gel, and we have it as a liquid, and we have it as a spray. So, you could put gel on any site around any sore that might be around the body. I would spray the face with the Argentyn spray morning and evening because it works as an antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal. I would go on a carnivore diet because it's the quickest healing diet to lower the blood sugar so that your immune system can build up. Because the standard American diet has so much starch, fruit, sugars, and carbohydrates in it, it's depressing the white blood cell count and immune function and their phagocytosis and movement. And for anyone, you know, fruit or donut or bread you eat, it can take eight hours to recover. And if you eat bread twice a day every 12 hours, you're spending two-thirds of your day with a poor immune system. So, I would go on high dose vitamin D, I would get the vitamin D 50,000 if I haven't been on any, and I would take one a day for a week, and then I would take one a week for the rest of the time until you're healed. And see a doctor. Find a good functional doctor. Again, if it has anything to do with your eyes, you have to see a medical doctor. 

The other thing is… so we talked about Argentyn. We talked about lowering your blood sugar. We talked about vitamin D. I would go on a wonderful multimineral. We use TLC Multimineral, Albion chelated minerals that are well clinically researched here. It has a nice high zinc. Zinc works to fight viral replication. And then I would go on quercetin, and we put that in a product called Seasonal Shield, and it has a high quercetin amount, high quality. We've clinically tested it. Everything I'm telling you right now, I use all the time. The quercetin is a Seasonal Shield. You load the first day with at least 8 capsules, 4 twice a day, to get that quercetin, that anti-mast cell level up the antiviral activity, the anti-allergy reaction, and then use two or three a day, probably three with her history. And you have your minerals, you have your vitamin D, you have the Argentyn silver, you have the carnivore or very, very low carbohydrate diet, never eating late at night. And then I would use vitamin C. I would get Buffered Vitamin C oral capsules, and I would just open the capsule into my mouth and let it hit the tongue and get all over. Do that before you go to bed, first thing when you wake up, and take another two or three capsules during the day just to keep your vitamin C, and that helps the integrity of the fibers of the tissue, the elastin/collagen fibers to adhere and heal better without little scars from those ulcerations. So those are the things I would do. 

Question

“My husband passed. He passed on January 4, 2025. He was 85 years old. I was just reviewing a test that was not accessible until weeks later for Parathyroid Hormone Int Only. It is 276.1 with a reference range of 8.7 pg/ml to 77.1 pg/ml. I am hoping you define a bit about what this means, if possible.”  [0:17:34]

Answer

Parathyroid hormone is along your thyroid, there are four of them. They're very small. And then you have your big thyroid gland. High parathyroid because 276 is a high number. Usually, at least in my clinical experience, practicing medicine for 44 years without a break, I'm going to say that this is usually linked with very low vitamin D levels, because when your vitamin D drops, and I've seen horrifically low vitamin D levels in the single digits, and I do not agree with their range of 30 to 60 as being adequate. Now, I'm starting to see the ranges from 30 to 100. I like my patients to have a vitamin D level somewhere around 80 up to 120. When the vitamin D drops so, so, so low, the parathyroid is worried about your calcium metabolism and bone density with low vitamin D, and it becomes more active trying to get calcium and D to work together to build your bones. So, low vitamin D is usually associated with very high parathyroid hormones. That's probably the most common cause. And when you're in a hospital or bedridden or not taken outside very much, especially as you get older and caretakers, you don't get good light exposure and no one thinks to give you vitamin D, it drops, your parathyroid goes up. This can be associated with abnormal calcium levels in your blood that can mess up your energy, and your fatigue. It can mess up your calcium flux for your heart or for muscle contraction. So, people with parathyroid problems, high parathyroid hormones, most likely, it sounds like to me, in your situation, he had low vitamin D and that was overlooked very likely, very possibly in his care. Vitamin D could have probably helped with that. That's my thought on it. 

Question

“Hi Dr. E, what are your target lab values for estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA for a menopausal woman in the late 60's/early 70's on bioidentical hormones? Thank you!”  [0:20:25]

Answer

So those ranges. If you're menopausal, there's perimenopause and then there's menopause. Menopause is when you have not had a period for one full year, 12 missed months without a menstrual cycle on your own. Perimenopause is that period of time when you start noticing that your menstrual cycle is not behaving like it normally does every month. You might skip a month or it might get further apart, or then you might have multiple menstrual cycles, and it becomes irregular. And then it might become regular for a while, and then it becomes irregular. And this can go on and off for years. So it becomes very hard for doctors during that time around perimenopause to help you, and you need to see your doctor more often to effectively understand your needs because not every woman needs the same amount of hormones. That's why I preface it with this statement. I get along with low estradiol levels. I can have an estradiol level at 50, or 60 and I don't get hot flashes or night sweats. My progesterone levels can be 4 or 6, and I sleep like a baby. My bone density is good. My mental acuity and memory recall is very sharp. My immune, my heart health, and my bone health, all are excellent. So, if, a woman is having hot flashes, night sweats, still having a mood that might be down, or joint pains often show up with menopause, vaginal dryness, maybe some night sweats or hot flashes, and her hormone level is estradiol of 50, maybe she needs a hundred. I have some women that feel only good when they're at about 100 to 150 range, and then yet a few that really need to be closer to 200, or 250. 

So, you see, that's what medicine is all about. It's you and your doctor working together to find out what works well for you. I can subside on the lower ranges. The progesterone, I really clearly like it to be 4 or higher. Now, what's the top high for progesterone? I don't think there's any real top high that I've ever seen that is a problem. Most women do fine with anything above a 4. I feel comfortable, if their estrogen levels are like a hundred, I really want their progesterone to be closer to the 6 to 10 range. So as the estradiol goes up, I want the progesterone coverage to go up. So, for me, I'm down here at maybe 50 and 4 to 6. Maybe another woman will be at 80 to 100, and she'll be at 6 to 10, and yet another woman will be at 150 and her progesterone will be at 24, and then finally I have some that are on like Wiley protocol, and their estradiol can go up to 300 and their progesterone to 40 or 50. And this can vary a little bit mostly in the early onset of menopause or perimenopausal area. Once you get to my age, I'm on a fixed dose. I don't change, nothing changes. So once you're not making any of your own hormones, then you stay on your fixed dose. It's during the early 40s, mid-40s, and early 50s that it's hard for a doctor to figure that out. I hope you understand that. 

And testosterone and DHEA, look at, you have to understand the ranges, the cheat sheets for the stupid kids and stupid doctors, the cheat sheet there. Those ranges are typically all going down, down, down. So I say this over and over again. Back in 1993 or ‘94, I did my own hormones because I was starting menopause way too early when I was in the 1970s, late 70’s, I was starting to see women in menopausal clinics, and they were in their late 50s, early 60s just starting menopause. So people were healthier with their own hormone production for many, many, many more years. But by the time 1990 rolled around, and I was already hitting 40, 41, and having menopausal symptoms, it must have been the stress of practicing medicine in my life. So, I did my hormones and my testosterone level was 93. Today, if you look at a range for a woman at 42, 41, and you look for testosterone, it's dropped down to like, you know, 7 to 47 or 7 to 67. It's like everything’s sinking and dropping off as we're all aging and drying up like dried prunes. I'm in my workout clothes, so I'm going to go work out after this with my husband, and you can see that I want to use my muscles. My testosterone currently is 170, so I like the upper ends of the testosterone. Now, if you get it too high, some women get breakouts and acne. And my DHEA, again, that's ridiculously low when you're a teenager and you start getting all your full hormone and healthy complex defined as, you know, sexual maturity. You're going to have DHEA levels of 500, 600, 700, 800 at least on your own. So, I keep my DHEA level somewhere around 500 to 700. And the testosterone comes from my DHEA. So, DHEA will eventually work down to become my testosterone. So I don't use any topical cream or patch or anything like that. God forbid any pellets. I don't believe in that synthetic weight of sticking it under your skin. So that's the range for testosterone and DHEA. 

Question

“What do you recommend for fevers and headaches? I've been reading most pain relievers are causing serious adverse effects, even acetaminophen.”  [0:27:21]

Answer

Yes. Well, the best thing is to never have a fever or get headaches. So, what's the best way to avoid that? Water. Wonderful, wonderful water. So you’ve got to keep your water and your glass and your straw. And I have my Analemma wand in here to have my cell membranes have great electrochemical energy. Analemma. You can look that up. The electrochemical energy charge of… we were all electrochemical beings. Every bit of our consistency. It says in Colossians, we're held together. Our being is held together by God's word, Jesus Christ, himself. And so, this energy is electrochemical attracting molecule to molecule. And H2O has an organized state and a disorganized state, and most everything is disorganized. But when you organize it, see if I can get this real quick, and this thing here with that spinning, spinning, you know, as soon as I stopped the vortex on my water machine, my vortex generator, it organizes my water. Anyway. So, you can see the vortex in there. So, I drink organized water, and that means every membrane around my cell, all the cells in my body, from my brain to my toe, have water molecules in a liquid gel, you might say electrochemically stronger, more energetically delivering potential phase, so that I have more endurance and I have more energy and I sleep better and I heal quicker. But you have to drink it in order to be helped with it. So, how many pounds are you? Cut it in half. That's how many ounces you should aim for every day. So, you don't want to have a headache. Very often, it's chronic dehydration. 

Number two, exercise. Blood flow is a challenge with age standing up the hydrostatic, orthostatic pressure from your sympathetic/parasympathetic system. Everything's got to work like a symphony. So if you don't exercise and you're just taking out of your checking account of health from your birth and development into adulthood, and you're not putting any deposits back into your checking account of health, like exercise, like water, like having time-restricted eating, so your stomach has a totally empty stomach for a good 12 hours or more a day, that you get a good night's sleep to repair, you don't eat past a certain time. You know, the older you get, the sooner you should quit eating. So, older people above 60 should eat between 7:00 AM to 3:00 in the afternoon. If you're young and busy, I can see you rushing off, skipping breakfast, and then just having lunch and early dinner, but never, never, never, never a late dinner. Nothing really past 6:00. So, so that will help headaches. 

Now, the other thing I do is I take a very low carbohydrate diet because carbohydrates gummy up, clog up little tiny capillaries everywhere, and they choke and create hypoxia, which makes the cell bust and break up, which creates inflammation, which can create vasospasm and create pain. So, a very low-carb diet. We're not made of fruits and vegetables. So, the more you eat your healthy proteins and fats or eat like a carnivore, the healthier you'll be, the fewer food lectins, and food allergens that you're bringing into your body. 

Now, the next thing I would say is Systemic Enzymes. I use 5 once or twice a day all the time now. In my 70s, I’ve got to have it so that I don't get sore and achy. In fact, I’ve got to pick up some from the supplement department tonight because I'm going to exercise right afterward and I'm going to have to have some tonight as well. So, anti-inflammatory because pain is a broken cell. Any broken cell like this is going to create pain, and that broken cell fragment generates information to call for the inflammatory response, the phagocytes, the white blood cells to move in, and killer cells, all that kind of stuff, and that creates heat, redness, vasodilation, pain. Same with a headache. So, enzymes, water, exercise, don't eat late. Try and get away from food allergens. Eat more carnivore-like. Get a good night's sleep. Be well hydrated. You might look into getting energy water, organized, structured water. A video by Dr. Pollack, structured water, electrically structured water, it's absolutely a must, you should see it if you want to live a long, healthy life. 

Question

“Can you talk to us about electromagnetic frequency sensitivity, EMF sensitivity, and what to do about it? I can't hold the phone anymore because of it. The instant inflammation is the CIRS (Chronic Inflammation Response Syndrome). Then your thoughts on taking low-dose methylene blue for electron transport chain support? Thanks.”  [0:32:50]

Answer

Well, we're in a sea of energy and signals, and they're passing through you right now. The receptors, the antennas you have are your phone. A receptor antenna is something like this screen here, your laptop, your Wi-Fi. All these means of receiving signals, and sending signals, are antennae with frequencies that are being received and emitted. This energy is changing the environment around it. So, if you think of throwing a pebble into a pond that is glassy, smooth and you throw a pebble in, then you see the rings and every molecule in that pond is affected by that stone throw drop and all the rings are moving, moving, moving, moving, moving, moving, moving, moving out. Okay. So, the same is happening to every signal energy flow dynamic, and the study of its safety is as bad, you might say, as the lack of study on the safety of mRNA injections, and other injections to allegedly prevent infections from viruses. So, without good study, we are putting something out in the marketing system that has cell damage potential. Now, we call this chronic hypersensitivity syndrome, something like that, CHS, chronic hypersensitivity syndrome to electromagnetic waves or frequency. Yes. 

So, if you understand, just like I was saying before, you are molecules that have electrochemical bonds, rules, and regulations that connect you to the next molecule. And if you understand that this cohesiveness can be disrupted by an energy force, like an atom bomb, and you're turned into dust, you're vaporized, or it can be done on a lower frequency over a longer period of time, and you break apart slowly. So that's really the same thing from an energy interpretation. Therefore, what can you do? There is a guy by the name of… what is his name… He is the EMP Doctor. He has a YouTube series, and he can tell you how to get Faraday cloth and put it over your bed, all around your bed, and under your bed, so you're sleeping in a Faraday cage and you won't get any electromagnetic energy. You can put this clock over your car. So if an electromagnetic energy bomb went off in the atmosphere and had a pulse, it wouldn't blow out the electronics in your car. He can teach you how to do it to your home, and make your home electromagnetic potential damage safety. So he is a physics teacher. So, he's called the EMP Doctor, and he has a whole YouTube series. 

Now, so what can you do? Well, you have to do everything healthy. The quicker you can heal at night, when you go to bed, your game is how quickly can I go from these injuries to this healthy cell membrane. And that's going to depend on a capillary, a blood flow. It's going to depend on enough water volume in there to dissolve away the damage, enough enzymes to chop up and take away all the damage, and then it depends on you eating enough healthy fats and proteins. So, your game for living a long life is going to be eating the phospholipids that we've been teaching for 40 years here on repairing your cell membranes, and that's in your meat, your fish, your chicken, your pork, your crab, your lobster, shrimp, all those kind of things, your butter, your eggs and free range, dairy, non-homogenized, non-pasteurized, and this way you will get it. So, if you want to have less electromagnetic damage and sensitivity, you have to have healthy cells, a healthy immune system, healthy hydration, and healthy minerals, you have to have magnesium, potassium, chromium, selenium calcium, all these minerals that are involved in your electrical chain transport energy and template for building and repairing your body. And that's how you do it. How to protect yourself is to see the EMP doctor, look at his videos, and maybe buy the cloth. I bought some. And I, of course, don't put my phone near my bed, and I don't run the sono music unless I'm having a party or something going on. So, I keep my profile electrically very low. Some people shut their whole circuit breaker off in their house at night and keep flashlights on the bed. There are many philosophies. The EMP doctor guy will give you some good advice there. Hopefully, that helps you.

Question

“Hi, Dr. Ellithorpe. My friend who has had cancer is encouraging me to do a 72-hour fast. I know you are a fan of fasting. My question is what supplements do I need to take when I do a fast? Is it ok to drink bone broth during a fast? Would a 24-hour fast be beneficial? I don't know if I can do 72 hours for my first fast.”  [0:39:20]

Answer

Well, I worked up at 2/2, so I think the longest I did was a 5 or a 7-day fast, and that's why I'm still working and doing my workouts. The last time I did it though, I felt particularly tired. It could have been a cold or allergy passing at that same time. So, I've limited my fastings down to 72 hours now that I'm in my 70s. So, yes, I think they're healthy. And yes, I do think it helps your body to cleanse and detox. And how often you do it really is how well you feel doing it. I pretty much live on a one-meal-a-day lifestyle, and I will often not eat that one meal and then suddenly there I am a day and a half without eating, without even trying. So, that's the world I live in. So, I'm either eating only one meal a day and doing a consistent 22-hour, 21-hour fast all the time, and/or I'm doing a 36-hour fast at least weekly, probably once a week. And then in a month maybe I'm doing a little more, like a 2-day fast once in a while. But you have to work up to it. I take all my supplements. There isn't a supplement I don't take on my fast except the Digestive Enzyme. If I'm not eating anything, I'm not taking my digestive enzyme. 

Bone broth has the fats and the proteins and stuff in it, so you're going to be breaking your fast, if it's water fast if you take bone broth. But you can define a fast to mean whatever you want. Some people define a fast to be a liquid fast. Now, you can't drink a chocolate milkshake. We're talking within, you know, common sense adult to adults here. If you're on a bone broth and you say, well, I'm going to try and just do bone broth for my breakfast and lunch and see if I can get away with not eating anything and doing everything, that’s your fast. See if you could be successful. Then maybe next time you can try and just do one bone broth for breakfast and make it all the way to the next day's breakfast without anything, that's your first 24-hour fast. So, you make it, do what you want. But yes, a water fast for a day, 2 days, 3 days is extremely health generating, as long as you are not, you know, an insulin diabetic or in other serious cases, you know, like pregnant or what all. For the most part, almost everyone can do a cleansing fast like that. 

Question

“I have a teaspoon of MCT oil and a teaspoon of butter in my morning coffee. Do you think this MCT oil gives me more energy for morning workouts? Is there a product that has all the aminos we need?”  [0:42:29]

Answer

The answer is yes because MCT, almost feeds directly into producing ketones in your body, and therefore, ketones are really the power engine of your brain, and it just is a much higher ability to produce ATPs then. So, good for you. 

And she goes on to say, “It gives me more energy for my morning workouts?” Yes. The answer is yes, it will. 

“Is there a product that has all the aminos we need?” Yeah, it's called Perfect Aminos. Perfect Aminos by Dr. Minkoff, and he is still practicing medicine, I believe, and I think he's in his 90s. So, he's an inspiration to me. He's about 20 years older than I am. And so, I pray that I'm still working in my 90s. I'm in my early 70s now. So there you go. It's on a tablet. His Perfect Aminos are tablets, and then he does have it in powder form. So yes, there you go. 

Question 

“Follow up to my EMF sensitivity question. Dr. Martin Pall says that EMFs open up the calcium channels and flood the cells with calcium. So then, would taking calcium channel blockers help EMF sensitivity? Also, do you like using  Wechol or cholestyramine to bind fungal toxins? Thanks again North Star  :)”  [0:43:47]

Answer

You have to work with your doctor on that. There are different kinds of calcium channel blockers. The diltiazem kind is a non-dipine medicine. So, diltiazem… what's the other one… I can't think of another name, but I know there are two of them, but diltiazem is one. That manages the calcium flow dynamics, more of the heart muscle, and the actual chronicity of heartbeats because you have very specialized cells there. Calcium is very important in electrochemical messaging. All the other cells, your muscles, and everything have a little easier calcium flow dynamic, and that's associated with calcium channel blockers like amlodipine, and nifedipine. These are -dipine calcium channel blockers. Calcium channel --dipines are nifedipine, and amlodipine, and then it helps you relax your smooth muscles. So, would this help with EMF? Yes, theoretically, and you're very smart to be thinking that. But work with a doctor, see your doctor, talk about it. Let's see what kind of tingling paresthesias you are having and what else might be going on with that as well.

Question 

“Hi Dr E.  I'm asking for a dear friend whose 16-year-old daughter has been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. She tested positive for mold Ochratoxin A and staph infection in sinuses, red meat sensitivity, and possible Alpha-Galactosidase deficiency. Where would you start with her toward healing? They live in Nashville, TN. Do you know of a doctor like you there?”  [0:45:44]

Answer

I don't, but go to ACAM.org and put your address in there and maybe put a 50-mile radius, because most doctors who are starting to go to all these integrative training and learn health finally besides pharmacology and surgery. They're probably going to go to the chelation therapy workshop, at the American Academy for the Advancement of Medicine, acam.org. I think Dr. Ken Berry is in that area. Now, you know, when these guys are on YouTube all the time and they have managers, I don't know that they're seeing people with hands-on so much anymore. I could be wrong. I hope I'm wrong. But I started to get, I've been doing this 44 years, and long before Dr. Berry or any of these guys. So, I just, want a doctor who has hands-on experience and does that every day, if not, at least most days of the week. 

What would I do for her? So, I would get her blood type, I’d put her on a carnivore diet. If she's truly afraid of eating meat, then she could have all the fish and all the turkey and all the chicken and all the lamb and all the ham, and all the bacon and all the eggs and all the shrimp, you know, all the lobster, crab she wants. And then I would put her on Systemic Enzymes on an empty stomach, you know, like Vitalzym or Vascuzyme systemic enzymes. And then I'd make sure she drank half her weight in ounces of water every day. And gets her vitamin D, gets a multimineral in her, and has her take a Digestive Enzyme whenever she eats food because it's most likely that she's a blood type A. And then all these other things tend to clear up. You could give her Argentyn silver nasal spray for her sinuses, and that's also helpful for fungal infections. 

Question

“If somebody had a TIA, transient ischemic attack, what would you put them on? Baby aspirin? Nattokinase? Serrapeptase? Other? Thanks.”  [0:48:39]

Answer

Well, I have to follow the standard protocol of management for this and get a neurology referral, a brain scan, or an ER visit, depending on the situation. Once the patient is stabilized and has received the standard of care treatment, which usually involves a baby aspirin, which involves maybe a blood pressure control medication, and follow-up testing with a neurologist, yes, I would put them on this low-carb, adequate hydration, systemic enzymes, not eating late, exercise routine, both cardio, and weightlifting, tracking their insulin, their triglycerides, their hemoglobin A1c, their fasting blood sugar, their inflammation measures, like sed rate and hs-CRP. I would do a heavy metal challenge on them to see how many heavy metals are clogging up their circulation. I'd put them on EDTA chelation therapy immediately once a week. And that's how I would start to treat them.
