YouTube Livestream Q&A Transcript, October 24, 2023

Question

“My husband was just diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis. Do you recommend anything aside from anti-inflammatory drugs which of course have long-term side effects?” [0:02:36]

Answer

 Of course, yes. Ankylosing Spondylitis is an autoimmune disorder. The blood type matters, the digestion and the chronic lining of the gut here, you know, here's a healthy lining. Here's where you have holes poked through. Food lectins, viruses, chemical assailants, high glucose, excess sugars in the body, all these things inflame the gut lining and within inflammation there on the cell membrane, you're going to have this chronic inflammation leaking through the gut, elevating the alert level of your gut-associated lymphoid tissue. And then, you can get some molecular mimicry where some of the inflammatory molecules will see the cartilage or bone and material that creates the Ankylosing Spondylitis. 

So, working with your specialists, if you would have your husband see a good functional doctor, get a complete digestive stool analysis. And then, have him get food allergies done, the immunoglobulin G, not the E, which is the immediate hive-producing anaphylaxis type but the chronic slow allergy reaction, the IgG. 

In the meantime, I would try and put him on a very simplistic diet, a one-menu day. Protein-rich with only cooked vegetables. And those vegetables would be low-carb, fiber-rich ones. And the only condiments that I would use would be salt and pepper. Then I would completely get away from all the grains and anything that is called dairy. Remember what you call dairy, I call white fire liquid. And what you call cheese dairy, I call white firebricks. Because homogenization and pasteurization turn the natural milk and natural cheeses into a fragmented, inflamed combobulation of molecules that are abnormal. So, all grains and dairy should be out of the diet completely. 

Then I would go on the systemic enzymes like Vitalzym or Vascuzyme. I would use five twice a day on an empty stomach. I would heal the lining of the gut with the phospholipid powders and a good probiotic. I would use a good multi-mineral and a good B vitamin with vitamin D, that has K2 in it. That would be the core approach that I would bring. Now, there's curcumin, there are many other things that can be talked about with your functional medicine doctor, even EDTA chelation will quickly enhance the microcirculation and dis-inflame the body by better circulation. And that goes without saying, his water use has to be half his weight in pounds as ounces every day. He should never eat late. 

That is how I would begin. And it works every time. What damage is there can be mitigated and maybe eventually you will be able to discontinue the anti-inflammatory drugs that they may be giving him or reduce them. 

Question

“I’m having body pains again after recovering from a virus 2 weeks ago. Anyone else experiencing these issues?” [0:06:44]

Answer

There could be all kinds of items going on here. What are your other general state of health issues? Are you a normally very healthy person? What is your weight? What is your age? What is your work environment? What is your blood type? What is your background, as far as allergies? Seasonal allergies? The allergies that we are in, it’s the season of pollens and harvesting. The other thing, what is your zinc level, and vitamin D level? These all have to be addressed by a good functional medicine doctor to kind of put this together. So, it could be allergies after you had a weakened state from the virus you had two weeks ago. It could be just from your age or your general health or other health issues. So, all those things have to be brought into mind. And so yes, as a doctor, we do see patients who will have a viral illness start to get better, and then they can have some myelogenous, aching muscles and fatigue. And we can usually sort that out. But do see your doctor. 

Question

“I have a girlfriend that has shingles. What do you recommend she does for the itching and pain? How long does it usually take before it heals? Do you only get it once or could it come back?” [0:08:21]

Answer

Shingles is the old chicken pox virus that is a dorsal ganglion of your spine, it lives there. As long as we take care of our health, and keep our immune system functioning, the suppression of those old viruses will not crawl out along a dermatome. And normally, we give high-dose vitamin C intravenous vitamin C, which acts as an antiviral, we spray the surface of where the lesions are along that one side of the body where the track is for the dermatome comes out with Argentyn Silver to prevent secondary bacterial infection. We use high-dose systemic enzymes to reduce the inflammation and the pain associated with it. We make sure that the patient stays cool and dry. We make sure their vitamin D level is up, have them get it checked, and then have them use 50,000 international units of vitamin D3 for five days. And then drop back to 10,000 a day thereafter. We would give them supplemental zinc in the form of TLC Multi Min. We would have them take three a day because zinc works as an anti-viral. And we would give them a high dose of Quercetin to help the itchiness and reduce the viral expression. Quercetin works like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. These help the cell membrane to be crossed, to get over that cell membrane, and allow the zinc to get in. And then the zinc will suppress viral replication. We like to do the high-dose vitamin C, maybe once every three days or every other day at the onset for a week or two, just pounding at it with natural vitamin C, which shortens the time span. 

Now the lesions that show up on the skin are just like any scratch or tear, or bruise or burn, it is going to take weeks to heal until a new layer grows out. But to prevent this in the future, you have to take and work with a good functional doctor, checking your D levels once or twice a year, whether or not your insurance covers the payment, I think it is valuable and should be covered. But nevertheless, those of us who care about our health, we want to take that and make sure that D is in the 80 to 100 range. And we want to make sure that we're on good zinc. And we're on low-carb because the carbs lower the immune system and allow viruses and stuff to attack us. But that's hopefully answering your questions. 

Question

“Are you familiar with thymosin alpha 1 peptide treatment used for autoimmune disease like rheumatoid arthritis? Is there any downside to peptide therapy? It would be administered under the guidance of a functional medical doctor.” [0:11:59]

Answer

Yes, there is a whole field of peptide therapies emerging. I just came from a course on this two weekends ago. And we are exploring the use of it here as well. So, this peptide therapy has merit. But I don't have personal experience with this yet. But there's great excitement over the things that signal our DNA, that signal fellow cells to behave, stem cells to revive and become active to repair skin, to repair bone, to repair muscle, to repair brain and nerve tissue. Everything is spoken to through the cell membrane. That's why I have done publications on the cell membrane. And these receptors, which are the proteins embedded and floating in this membrane, are of signal to buy peptides. These are small amino acid chains of various configurations that dock with these receptors on the cell membrane and tell the cell how to behave or a message that it wants sent to the nucleus. 

And so peptide therapy is one of the new exciting areas in functional medicine. And yes, I'm aware of it. And yes, it looks exciting. But I have to do more studies on it. Now, is it safe? My understanding is it is very safe because you are dealing with natural things. But I am saying that conditionally because I have more reading to do, like I need another hole in my head. I’m involved in so much. 

Functional doctors have to read and study, study and read, read and study. We are not paid for this. We love our patients, we want to benefit them and of course, we want to help our families and ourselves. But this is such an exciting new area and we're trying to stay on top of it. We're trying to do things like this to teach our patients and to make things available, keep you updated, and let you know that we are staying updated. So, I would say that we are excited about this. It looks like a very promising and safe therapy. 

Question

“Just learned that my Iron Saturation is elevated. Fe 184mcg & % saturation 77% - I tested negative for hemochromatosis and do not take supplements. Is there anything I can do to resolve this naturally?” [0:15:02]

Answer

Are you are menstruating woman? Are you postmenopausal? Do you ever donate blood once or twice a year and give a pint of blood? Are you inflamed? Has anyone checked your mineral status? Are you eating out of our iron cookware? Is your glassware glazed with iron? These are various things I would be asking. 

Fortunately, an iron level of 184, although elevated, I think 150 is the upper limit of normal. And 50 is the upper limit of percent saturation. So, this is not out of control. And work with your doctor. Look at your environment to see where the iron might be coming from. And our multivitamin, TLC Energy Core does not contain iron. We ask our patients to eat enough red meat. Normally we will get the iron we need from that. But work with your doctor. Those are some suggestions and frameworks that I would suggest to you. 

But go donate your blood. And it would be very beneficial. 

Question

“We are considering solar panels on our roof (directly above our bedrooms). What health research or advice do you have that may impact health with a mini power station on our roof?” [0:16:37]

Answer

I don't think that there's any issue with the solar panels. It has a power-emitting radio frequency that I think is of concern. Biocollection of light photons into the cells on the solar panel is just an electron transfer, not a signal. I don’t think that’s a problem at all. 

Question

“What can help with both fibromyalgia and losing weight?” [0:17:34]

Answer

Well, all kinds of things. Again, you should see a good functional doctor. Look at the degree of inflammation in your body. Look at the degree of cell membrane capacity to repair in your body. Remember if you are in America and they have been frightening you from eating meat, fish, egg yolks, butter, and chicken with the skin on it, these are all rich sources to have a healthy, phospholipid bilayer lipid membrane and protein for your receptors. We get injuries by using our body every day, even your mitochondria, the batteries inside the cell are working and they have the same membrane. And so does the nucleus have is the same membrane construction. And if you have 50 trillion cells, and each cell has maybe another 5,000, or 10,000 of intracellular organelles, with membranes just like that, do you have any idea how much healthy fats and essential fats that you need to consume? And so I think all this processed hydrogenated fats have destroyed America's actual structural building of your cell membranes. And I attribute, you know, some of the slowness of my aging and my endurance to the fact that my dad had us eating Armor Food research meat all the time. He would never let my mother use seed oils. We had butter. He would never go for margarine. And so, I think I have the cell membranes that represent more of a person who would have been born in, you know, the late 1880s, early 1900s, who only was eating these healthy fats for a healthy cell membrane. 

Remember, if I couldn't do this video with you, if I didn't have a good roof? If I didn't have good windows to block the sound. And if it started to rain or a bird flew in here, we would lose our connection. You would be distracted. You would maybe see the water hitting the computer and it blowing a fuse. So, the structure of the room I’m in is as important as having knowledge and sharing it with you. So, please understand, you have to have a structure to your human body. Your cell membranes are a sensory device, like your eyes, ears, nose, mouth, touch. All this sensation is communicated through the little proteins that are floating in the membrane. This picture over here, the glob, is a membrane. That is a protein being held in place by triglyceride, you know, lipids. This is the alpha-linolenic acid and linoleic acid through the double bonds there. And we are not eating this and you're being fooled into taking EPA and DHA all the time. And what you really need is linolenic, alpha-linolenic, and the cholesterol to have healthy cell membranes and structure. So, you are going to be more easily damaged. 

And if you have fibromyalgia that is a syndrome complex of symptomology without any one known, cause. You know, they speculate is this chronic low-grade lyme? Is it a chronic low-grade viral illness? And so, when they ruin the food and do industrialized farming, the zinc levels, magnesium levels, the vitamin D levels are blocked by all the chemtrails, and then nanoparticulate heavy metal toxins that diffuse into the stratosphere to bounce away, the very lightwaves that you want to hit your skin to help you convert your cholesterol into vitamin D. So, you have all these things going against you. That's why you need doctors who are functional medicine, and who are looking at many other aspects of your situation. 

So, with fibromyalgia, if you're inflamed, and it's a chronic virus, it is toxins, too much sugar, too much-hydrogenated fat, not enough phospholipid repair, too many holes in the membrane, you have to work towards and with your functional doctor to help improve that. Possibly you would need to resupply natural hormones. Possibly the high dose vitamin C intravenous therapy, certainly the enhanced circulation for delivery and removal of these toxins with EDTA chelation therapy would be a very valuable thing to do. Taking anti-inflammatory enzymes and not eating late. Starting to exercise. All these things matter. And a doctor who will look at your fasting insulin, look at your hemoglobin A1C, look at your triglyceride level, and look at your fasting blood sugar, and hold you to a higher standard than the reference ranges because they're too liberal and they keep everyone sick, fat and happy. So, that's what I would say.

Question

“In a recent YouTube, you had mentioned how blood type A had some exceptions than the other blood types. Could you speak more about why and/or what are some of the other exceptions with it be food, supplements, tests, etc.” [0:23:39]

Answer

In general, we're all fearfully and wonderfully made by our Lord. There are certain liabilities that we have found. In the blood type A, that liability happens to be in the fact that A-type blood as a class of people is found to make less digestive enzymes. If you are eating food, let’s say a steak or an egg with the yolk or butter on something, your ability to have enough enzymes to chop up and break up the protein in the steak, protein in the egg, the fats in them and the butter, is hampered. Therefore, you will not feel well when you are eating these very rich, nutrient-based foods. And you will learn not to eat them. You will move toward becoming a vegetarian, or vegan, because it’s easier. Much more simple to digest carbohydrates. 

Therefore, you will wind up having higher blood sugars and insulin, and hemoglobin A1C, and fasting blood sugar, and triglycerides, all of these kinds of things. So, we tell blood type A please just take a digestive enzyme. I use Ortho Molecular products. We have it here for anyone that wants it on our private label. They will only sell to physicians. If you take it after you eat, it will probably solve all your problems. And it's my understanding that if you look at all the gold medalists throughout the years, if you find out what their blood types are, the greatest performance of athletes, Olympiads are blood type A. That’s all I am saying. 

I’m a B-type blood. B has its liabilities. ABs have a mixture of both an A and the B. Os have their liabilities. We all have a cross to bear. You have to find a doctor who is sensitive and open to learning about these things. And to use the simple measures along with understanding the blood type of their patient. 

Question

“Is D-Hist supplement better absorbed on an empty stomach? Or should we take it with food?” [0:26:36]

Answer

I don’t think it matters. I have used D-Hist for over 35 years, close to four decades. I think it was the very first product that Ortho Molecular ever came out with. It is a wonderful quercetin-rich, natural, antihistamine. And very good for allergies and things like that and preventing viruses and succumbing to them. And I have never seen a difference whether I take it with food or an empty stomach. I personally take it on an empty stomach. Hope that answers your question.

Question

“I hurt my right foot recently. The top tendons and the bottom under the big toe. What can I do to help them?” [0:27:20]

Answer

Well, it depends on you know how bad the injury is. If it's just something you've banged it with and you bruise it should totally heal. But I mean, if you had a sharp blunt item, you may have some micro-tears or even a bone x-ray is needed for your foot. And recently, how long is recent? Some people would say that three months ago was recent, or a week ago is recent, or yesterday is recent. So, you need to have a doctor look at this. But in general, we are designed to heal. Written in the DNA and sensed by all the cells. When there is an injury, the fragments of that injury are sent out in the area and picked up throughout the whole body. And that generates messages to send repair material, more blood, more blood flow, and white blood cells to protect against infection. And that redness and pain is just a signal from the fragmentation there. 

So, water helps, fasting, not eating anything for a day or two, and then your whole body will focus on the source of where the injury is. Taking systemic enzymes, five or six twice a day will reduce the inflammation. I can’t examine it and if it is serious and lasting, you should have a doctor x-ray or look at it yourself. But that’s what I would suggest. 

Question

“What causes cataracts (besides aging)? Is there anything that I can do to prevent them from becoming worse - or even better, reversing them?” [0:29:19]

Answer

 The reason that I have this picture, this is what happens at every place in sight of your human body that is hurting. Whether it is a gunshot wound, you get a big amount, or just a little virus penetrates through the cell membrane. Cell injury is all the same. Your lens is this jelly-filled ball right behind the pupil of your eye that dilates. And what it is, this clear gel film has the little muscles on it, on each side to squish it together, which helps you with your near vision, or thin it out, which helps you with your distant vision. And so, this is going on without thinking autonomically all the time. If you look far and you look near, the little muscles can get worn out. Just like the muscles in your arm. If you have a lot of sugar in your diet, food allergies in your diet, lack of water in your diet, if you have a low-grade chronic infection in your diet. If you are not getting enough of the phospholipids to repair, then this gel ball will get kinks in it. The little structural proteins in it will start to oxidize, and burn you might say. Combine and link up even sugar will glycate and create these little dark spots. Plus that’s what causes floaters. 

So, antioxidant assay, taking powerful antioxidants and I use the Juice Plus series for this. I'll take the fruit, vegetable, and berry. I have had it for closing on 30 years on it. And I take enough water. I’m always working to drink half my weight in pounds as ounces every day. I do aerobic workout. I do my weightlifting. I take my systemic enzymes to disinflation. I do chelation to improve the microcirculation. I try never to eat late at night. I try and eat very low carb. And then I take the vitamin A-rich supplements both in the Juice Plus and other antioxidants. All of these are in the Juice Plus as well. Making this is a lifestyle of doing all these things. Lower the sticky, gummy, clogging-up sugars. Try to eat a simple diet. Drink enough water. Take enzymes. I think that’s why at 70 I don’t have cataracts. Hopefully, that helps you. You have to do it all. 

Question

“Part 1 - I have been taking your TLC Metabolic formula for over a year now. My last A1C was 6.2. I am working through food choices and exercise to get it in the normal range. I do intermittent fasting from 8 pm until 1 pm the next day several days/ week. I have been taking 4 of the TLC capsules with my first meal- fasting bl. sugar # has been 100-149.

Should I still take the 4 TLC metabolic formula capsules at the same time when I have my first meal of the day? My fasting blood sugar number avg. is too high and I want to get it closer to 100. It’s anywhere from 100 -149 some days. What changes can I make to get it lower? I will not take Pharma. meds for this.” [0:33:13]

Answer

Well, you need to exercise. You need to do some weight training because your muscles have the units to help burn down sugar. I would do weight training twice a week, a bare minimum of 20 minutes. Also, I would do brisk walking for 20 minutes on the other days. So, five days a week. I would walk as fast as I reasonably could walk and still have a conversation. But every two minutes, three minutes, I would split that walk for about 20 seconds as fast as I could. And then, come back down to my good pace and recover my breath for two minutes. And then 20 seconds cycle up almost breaking out in a run. So, this is walking with spurts, walking with spurts, every about two to three minutes you do as fast a short of running as you can for just 20 seconds. This is called high-intensity training. And this is very valuable. And it stimulates your mitochondria, which will help you burn your sugar. And you have to do the pull against weights to build the containers of your muscle to burn up the sugar. 

Along with your good intermittent fasting, I would take one day a week where I would go from dinner to dinner. I would skip that eating at one o'clock and make it till dinner at six p.m. I don’t think I would eat until eight o’clock. I would honestly shift this to eating from noon to six p.m. The later you eat, the harder it is to lower your blood sugar. But that’s what I would do. 

Let us know how your numbers are in a month or two. Share with your local doctor. Keep an eye on this. And make sure you are being monitored. It sounds like you are because you had a hemoglobin A1C. We would like to see that get to 5.2. It will if you do those things. 

Do a 24-hour fast and do an earlier cut-off on eating. Do the exercise with the brisk walking, if you can tolerate it. I don’t know your personal situation or age. But these are the things that I would say in general to my patients who are able to do these things. And don’t have some other mitigating factors. 

Question

“I have had a retinal detachment and two retinal tears in the other eye. How do I help my eyes and get rid of floaters? Also, what is the best natural cure for Anxiety? I have severe anxiety.” [0:36:55]

Answer

Well, exercise really is one of the best natural cures for anxiety, with weight training. So, the very same thing I told you above with weight training twice a week with heavy weights. Not to the point you are straining, popping your eyes out. But having reasonable hard resistance in a real formal situation, not some five-pound weight or ten-pound weight. Someone is going to help train you. I use the Perfect Workout. That’s where I go three times a week. And that’s where I will be tomorrow morning at six or seven in the morning. 

The other thing I would do for that, is you have to have enough water. You have to have enough water to help the eye pressure and flow of fluids, in and out. If the eye and your whole body are getting old and dry and wrinkled, that’s how it can shrink away and get the detachments and so forth. Plus you have to work on your membranes. You have to have your structural repair with the actual fat and protein we are made of in your eyeballs, retina, and cell membrane back there. We are made of that. To make them resilient and supple, you have to be eating these things. Fruits and vegetables are not what you are made of. I would take systemic enzymes to disinflame your body. The other thing is, when I had a big floater one time, about a year and a half, two years ago now. I just woke up with it one morning. I forget the time of year. I am under stress all the time. So, stress can precipitate this. And can push you into some poor habits. I tend to think this was in a January timeframe, a Christmas season where I was doing too many treats in a holiday season. Anyway, I went on a five-day fast. I can do it, I worked up to it. I don’t know where you are. But when I saw that, I immediately stopped eating for five days. I just had water and black coffee. I tell you it dissolved tremendously. The inflammation in my body tremendously dropped. I took all my vitamins. I took extra enzymes. I pushed my water to the limits. I walked and walked. I kept my work out. Kept my weight training and pilates up. And that sucker just dissolved way down to, I don’t know if I can see it right now. I would say that it is 95% gone. And that’s how you have to live your life. You have to do it and these things especially as we age. But see your ophthalmologist and have those managed also appropriately. 

Question

“I have had bad breath for years and it's affecting my social life. I brush, floss, and have no cavities. I've noticed when I'm nervous my breath seems sour. Could do have anything to do with stomach acids?” [0:40:29]

Answer

The acidity in your mouth and saliva is very much associated with the type of flora and the bacteria that are in your mouth. There is a product out there called Brite Power. I think that it is called Brite Power. It’s a tooth gum, you use one a day. And it has calcium carbonate. It has lysozyme. It has mint. It has six items in it. But anyway, this dental gum mint helps change the pH of your saliva, helps your enamel, and the dentition, helps even prevent cavities. But it changes the Flora Fauna in your mouth and usually the breath is also cleared up. That's what I would try. 

Another thing you can do is take Argentyn Silver. We have Argentyn 23 of nanoparticles. It is very uniform. Not colloidal clumpy. Although Colloidal Silver is helpful. I like the nanoparticles. That works very well. You can take a teaspoon at night, swish, and swallow. But I have heard good things and have some people and dentists talk about Brite Power. 

Question

“I have seen some recent research that indicates there is a distinction between carbs in processed food as opposed to naturally occurring in foods, which indicates that the carbs that naturally occur can enhance fiber intake and other benefits. I also wonder if the naturally occurring sugar in fruits and other foods shouldn't be distinguished from” [0:43:31]

Answer

There is good science on this. The thing, yeah, there is a lot of naturally occurring starch in a potato. There is a lot of naturally occurring starch in a carrot, in a pea, in a corn, in a bean. The thing is, they are genetically modifying so much of this. And even the apples today are not like the smaller apples that were tarter 50 to 60 years ago. They are messing with everything. We already have hurt ourselves with two high carbohydrate exposures. So, being as aggressive as you can, we are not made of fruits and vegetables. We want to get our cells and eyeballs and our lens and our retina and our brain and all our tissues much better covered with the phospholipids. But yeah, the naturally occurring scratches, fruit sugars, carbs, unprocessed fruits and vegetables, nuts, and seeds are far better than any processed foods by 1000%. I totally agree. 

But if your fasting blood sugar, after not eating 12 hours is already 95, well that’s too high. Every carb matters. If your triglycerides are over 100, then that's too high. And every carb matters. If you're fasting insulin after 12 hours of nothing is over four, then that’s too high. And every carb you eat matters. If every hemoglobin A1C is above 5.2, then there is a lot of sticky sugar in your body, and adding more carbs doesn’t make sense. 

Question

“What does the comment "Partially visualized 1.4 cm right lung vaguely defined ground glass abnormality" mean? This was a comment at the bottom of a CT scan of a lung. Is that something to be concerned about?” [0:45:56]

Answer

It means you have to go to your doctor, who is going to look at that and decide, knowing all about you and who you are and what your symptoms are, should that be biopsied or just reimagined in a period of time, months or so. That’s all that means. That means the radiologist really can’t tell you what is going on. They are not your doctor. They don’t know you. They want to cue in your doctor that although they see something vague, 1.4 cm, less than an inch, vague. You just have to follow it up and work with your doctor and see what symptoms led you to get the original imaging study in the first place. 

Well talk with your doctor who knows you and your background and why the original CT was done and then you have to decide then. So in general, it can't be said anything more. I know you want an answer, but you have to work with your doctor on that.

Question

“What are the things that reverse arthritis? What are the symptoms?” [0:47:26]

Answer

Well, you know, it's joint pain, joint erosion, lipping. So, wherever there's chronic inflammation in a joint, then the micro-injuries are occurring. And then it's recurring or recurring and very often, calcium deposits will recur to try and cement it down, try to plug the holes. That is why we are very much against allowing chronic inflammation to go on like inflaming your liver with alcohol every day or smoking cigarettes. Or not walking to get your hydraulic pump, rinsing out your blood so to say with a daily walk. Any inflammation will call for repair. When that repair is not done, then it is going to get the body an attempt to repair it, and eventually, calcium will lay down. Therefore, you want to eat a low-carb diet. You want to have good water in your body, and good enzymes because we lose them with aging. You want to walk regularly. You don’t want to clog up the capillaries with food allergens and a lot of sticky sugar. And so, all these things work to make it better. But you see how this picture applies to every disease in the human body. And this is what they need to teach the doctors out there. This is what they need to teach. 

Question

“I have been seeing your doctors at the Center. I am on Progesterone and Estradiol patch. Do you believe in bio, identical, hormones made from compounding pharmacies? What's the difference between these drugs?” [0:49:05]

Answer

Well, Estradiol is Estradiol. That is biochemistry, the three-dimensional configuration of hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen. That molecule in a special form is called Estradiol. That is the only kind that a human woman makes. And that’s what we give. 

Pharmacies package this and stick this to a patch that you can apply to yourself and you can absorb it at a certain rate. They can put it in a pill and you can absorb it. You can put it in a cream and absorb it. These are the most common ways. They are bioidentical. We can measure it. I am in favor of it. 

I’m not in favor of synthetics that are copycats and have similar behaviors as the Estradiol and could be too much. For instance, Permarin was from equine sources, horses. And so, the structure of the estrogen in a horse is different than a woman. We believe here to only use natural hormone therapies, human, bioidentical. You will have to talk with your doctor. Progesterone, there is only one molecule. Biochemical, stereotypic arrangement. That can be sold to you as Prometrium, that’s the trade name that the pharmacy uses. Compound pharmacies often mix it in peanut oil or olive oil. And they will call it progesterone capsules. They will mix with a cream and make it progesterone topical cream. But it’s all wonderful, natural, bioidentical. So, yes. 

We certainly need the prayers. Lots of things are going on. We just need the protection for our patients. I take the TLC Metabolic formula in the morning, all at once. I don’t think it makes a difference. I believe in making life simple. 

Question

“Is there any way to have a long-distance consultant with you?” [0:52:27]

Answer

I would call the office and tell them about your situation. The reason why there are is difficulties, malpractice is putting perimeters on who I can see, what state, and what not state. That is what is going on. And I am trying to raise up doctors here. It looks like we will be taking on another wonderful doctor with some good experience already. Tremendous internal medicine lady doctor. I am very impressed with her. She’s really eager to continue to grow and learn. She comes with great skills already. But you know, we are not the only ones. 

If you go to ACAM.org, look it up, and find a doctor there. Call the office. Find a little bit about the doctor and how long they have been practicing what they call functional integrative medicine. Ask them if they do chelation therapy IV to remove heavy metals. Ask if they do high-dose vitamin C therapy. If they say yes to that and bioidentical hormones. And familiar with special food allergy testing, and complete stool analysis. If that is yes, yes, yes, we do all this. That sounds like a good place to start. I’m not the only one. I’m still learning. I love to learn. I love being a student. And my patients teach me so, so much as well. 

Question

“Is there a natural way to get rid of UTI infections?” [0:54:23]

Answer

Well, the answer is no. If you have bacterial cystitis, you have to use an antibiotic. And I don't like fooling around with infections where they ought not to be in the body. Now we use, Uratrac– One is De Mannose, which is a sugar you can take orally that is not absorbed in your body for energy, and it stays in the, it's absorbed and goes through the kidneys and into the bladder, where it helps make the environment very unlikely for bacteria to attach to the lining of the bladder and urethra. So, that’s De Mannose. 

And then we have cranberry extract. And cranberry extract is helpful also in inhibiting bacterial overgrowth. But drinking enough water, keeping it low carb, and having good hygiene around and after sexual intercourse, these are all very important things. So, that's what I would suggest. 

But if you think you have a bladder infection, I would do a nice clean catch, make sure you wash well, and really hold the lips apart so the urine is shooting right out the urethra and not flapping between the lips and the hair. So, we get a true clean catch and a good true facts about what your bladder urine is looking like, not what the skin and hair look like on your lips because it's then a contaminated sample. 

And I've seen too many people get on antibiotics because the front office girls will not, they are embarrassed to talk about these things I guess about the lips and the hair and holding them apart. But you've got to do it otherwise you get lousy samples and lazy doctors will just treat any white blood cells. And your skin is full of white blood cells. The hairs are full of white blood cells. You can culture off of any part of the skin. 

Question

“What are your thoughts on using Dihexa, PRL-8-53, or Noopept alone or synergistically for Alzheimer's patients?” [0:56:48]

Answer

I am not familiar with those, Dihexa, PRL-8-53. And Noopept, I’m not familiar with this. These are new things. And they may be take-offs on the new peptide theory craze that is being taught around. I know these other doctors are starting to look into the alternative functional integrative world and peptide therapy is where it is at. But it will be far better if the patient gets on hormones. If they can, they get EDTA chelation to improve the circulation and the low-carb diet and enzymes and exercise and those kind of things. I will have to look into that. Let me make a note on that. My patients are always helping me to grow.
