A high sugar, low fiber diet in “Western Society” is making our children obese. Our “fast food” society is generating a “fat food” society! Calorie intake and expenditure normally are regulated by leptin. When the hormone, leptin, is functioning properly it increases physical activity, decreases appetite, and increases feelings of well-being. Conversely, when leptin is suppressed, feelings of well-being and activity decrease and appetite increases, a state called “leptin resistance.” Drinking fruit and vegetable juices can decrease your susceptibility to Alzheimer’s Disease. Polyphenols… chemicals available in many natural foods… might disrupt the processes, and even lend some protection to Alzheimer’s by neutralising the effect of damaging compounds called free radicals. Fruit and vegetable juices are particularly rich in polyphenols! Anger reduces both lung function and adversely effects the immune system. Emotional therapies can help many physiological conditions! Are drug companies “pushing drugs”… what is their actual motivation in producing drugs?

A technical problem with last week’s podcast! A quick “tutorial” for the Traditional Naturopath website. If you are not getting enough sleep, you might actually gain weight! The benefits of small things, and small changes, to your overall health. “Non-exercise associated thermogenesis” or NEAT. The FDA approves a spray-on virus as an “additive” for meat! Is this insane, or what? The “Rain Forest” view of your gut! How this “additive” could “de-folliate” the “rainforest” of your intestines! Accutane, an acne drug, has serious side effects! Aspartame (also sold under the brand name of “Nutrasweet”) as an ant poison! The asparctic acid contained in this toxic product is a well-documented excitotoxin! Apparently, only 1 in 8000 cows “taste great!” Cloned cattle may be in our future… but not for me!

Intro – I’ve been on vacation which is why the Blog has languished a bit this week! An introduction to the web site and podcast’s purpose… why we are here! What is Naturopathy and how does it compare to Allopathic Medicine? Why a “long term” approach to lifestyle change can be a benefit compared to treating symptoms. A funny, yet pointed “song” about drug commercials on TV and how they are misleading people… as well as a brief discussion of Humira and it’s side effects! a man gets stopped in an Orlando airport because of radiation detectors catching his thyroid treatments! Wow! CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) may be as effective against Diabetes as drugs according to research. “Compared to the synthetic drugs used to treated this disease, CLA does not cause weight gain and may in fact decrease overall body fat,” says Vanden Heuvel, who has been granted a patent on the new method of treating diabetes with CLA. So… a natural approach is as effective as a synthetic drug… and has GOOD side effects!

Vitamin D increases your body’s production of naturally occurring antibiotics, called antimicrobial peptides, that are produced throughout the body the cell walls of viruses and bacteria, including tuberculosis. Medication errors injure 1.5 Million Americans per year! YOU need to take responsibility for what you are taking personally. The story of Abraham Cherrix and how the state is FORCING him to take chemotherapy treatments! This is an affront to the right of personal healthcare choices!
“Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will come when medicine will organize into an underground dictatorship… To restrict the art of healing to one class of men and deny equal privileges to others will constitute the Bastille of medical science. All such laws are un-American and despotic and have no place in a republic… The Constitution of this republic should make special privilege for medical freedom as well as religious freedom.”
– Dr. Benjamin Rush, signer of the Declaration of Independence
