We also assume that there is a higher level of safety in something that is natural, as opposed to something man-made. Maybe it’s a vitamin, or a supplement, even foods. But make sure you always look deeper, and before you start taking anything, you should consult your doctor. The New York City Department of Health recently issued a warning against Vita-Breath, a vitamin supplement, for containing dangerous amounts of lead. But how can that be, you ask? Isn’t it all-natural, and isn’t someone monitoring that? Read the whole story here Unfortunately, some manufacturers put heavy metals into their products, essentially and eventually poisoning us. Some of those symptoms to look out for include unexplained fat...

The once vibrant and slim 26-year-old now barely recognized herself. “I felt like I had mono. I was sleeping all the time,” says Giacoppo. “At one point, my mother wondered if I was pregnant because I’d gained so much weight.” There were other problems, too. She was eating more than usual; her skin was very dry; and her hair and nails were brittle. So Vanessa went to the doctor and had the full battery of tests. The blood work revealed that while she wasn’t producing enough thyroid hormones (known as T3 and T4), her thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) was elevated. The labs pointed to a disease known as Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, an autoimmune condition in which antibodies attack the gland ...

This approach encourages us to consider the transcendental as much as the cell and molecular biology of the human organism. Alternative versions of “holistic medicine” that offer claims of miracle cures for cancer by impossible dietary regimens, homeopathy or metaphysical manipulation of non-existent energy fields, are cruel and fraudulent acts that deserve to be criminalized. Such “alternative” versions of holism are arid and closed belief systems, locked in a time warp, incapable of making progress yet quick to deny progress in the field of scientific medicine. Fo...

We do share your anger and we will only put closure on our father’s passing away once doctors know there are metastatic liver cancer survivors. Just imagine: your doctor was the pharaoh’s doctor: if the pharaoh dies, the doctor would be killed and buried next to him… How much effort do you think this kind of doctor would put into finding a cure? For sure he wouldn’t dare to act like your dad’s oncologist: I went through the trouble of downloading all of the information for my dad’s oncologist but he was not receptive to reading it as he claimed he was too busy. To cure a person with secondary liver cancer, we repeat: you have to do everything right. Obviously you are a far cry away from "everything" when you do...

That makes DMG America one cool cat. Instead of treating a decaying tooth with remineralization or a filling, dentists can now rebuild a decaying tooth with Icon caries infiltrant by DMG America. No drill. No filling. No problem. Icon is a microscopic, invasive material that literally fills and reinforces tooth enamel. The product can be used for smooth surfaces and proximal caries that extends to the first third of dentin, D1. In just 15 minutes, you can restore the integrity of a tooth with progressing caries. Simply prepare the area with a rubber dam, then treat the tooth with a gel containing 15% HCL. The pores will open in the affected area, and you will then rinse, apply ethanol to dry, and then air dry the tooth. Apply Icon to the lesion and light cure.

In A Man’s Way through the Twelve Steps, author Dan Griffin uses interviews with men in various stages of recovery, excerpts from relevant Twelve Step literature, and his own experience to offer an holistic, modern approach to sobriety for men. Readers work through each of the Twelve Steps, learn to surrender negative masculine scripts that have shaped who they are and how they approach recovery. Thus strengthening the positive and affirming aspects of manhood. This groundbreaking book offers the tools needed for men to work through key issues with which they commonly struggle, including: difficulty admitting powerlessness finding connection with a Higher Power letting go of repressed anger and resent...

Hey, Los Angeles Times, if you’re going to use “may,” the most powerful weasel word ever invented, you don’t have to settle for the humble vegetable. The sky’s the limit! Butter-pecan ice cream may prevent cancer. A Maui vacation may keep cancer from spreading. Daily massages may prevent recurrence. Especially free massages, given by reluctant relatives. On the other side of the equation, housework may cause cancer. Also clerical work. I’d expect weasel words in a blog, since most bloggers don’t get paid.

The editoral, which appeared in this week’s Christmas issue of BMJ.com, said that the medical establishment’s acceptance of holistic approaches to medicine was embarrassing. In the early 1900s, doctors tried to eliminate snake oil and secret remedies from being sold as cure-alls to unsuspecting consumers. While they may have eliminated some of it, not long after, in the 1970s or so, alternative and complementary medicines gained popularity, although many in the so-called mainstream medicine considered them to be snake oil as well. And, not only were homeopathy, naturopathy, acupuncture, reflexology and many  other tr...

That’s a significant number. And while most people who are admitted to the hospital with a mental disorder do so for a physical ailment — 84 percent — it still demonstrates an often-ignored component of hospitalization. Co-existing mental disorders like depression or anxiety can have a significant impact on the medical outcome for which a person is admitted. But few physicians recognize the importance of a holistic approach to medical care in a hospital (and few hospital administrators care). This should be a wakeup call to hospitalists...

Historical records show this healing art has been around since before Buddha. It is also described as "an innate part of human's wisdom...simplifying the complexities of existence...truly an Art of Living."This healing art was brought from Japan to the United States in the 1950's by Mary Burmeister, and classes are available in a variety of locations. "Listen only to harmony" and "Energy is enthusiasm in motion" are some of the inspirational quotes featured at the website along with a scenic slide show.Mary Burmeister's book, Jin Shin Jyutsu Is Getting to Know (Help) Mys...

Sipes, Psychology, Missouri Western State University. Family caregivers and paid caregivers in home care are often meeting a variety of holistic needs. It is never just one health condition that needs care, but the total person.At caregiversresource.net Michael Jankowski, MSW, of Heartland Home Health and Hospice, provides some guidelines for holistic caregiving.

So far some 175 students aged 3 to 21 will be going to school in the newly constructed $13 million, 52,000-square-foot building. Back in May of 2006, the Gloucester County Times heralded the building of the Center in no small part because it will save taxpayers about $1 million annually in tuition costs now incurred for educating the county’s autistic children in private schools. The September 5th Gloucester County Times notes that tuition is about $28,000. The training that teachers and aides received is not mentioned, while the facilities are carefully described: “the 20 classrooms are designed to minimize distractions to light, sound and touch.

Such news would be sad enough were it not for the fact that Noah's parents had previously interrupted his chemotherapy regime with a holistic approach to cure his cancer. Noah's parents were concerned about the adverse effects that chemotherapy would take on Noah's body and instead sought alternative therapies.While alternative therapies do have their place and can help, there are some instances when Western medicine should be respected. Cancer, I believe, is one of these. I have known a number of friends who have followed a chemotherapy schedule while using alternative therapies as supplemental support. The efforts have given them wonderful resul... The Cancer Blog blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=629092 Tue, 22 May 2007 04:00:00 +0100 629092
