9 Steps to Treat Depression Naturally
Ever since I started an online community for treatment-resistant depression — depression and anxiety that don’t respond to psychotropic medications — I’ve been inundated with mail from desperate people who have tried 30 to 40 different kinds of antidepressants, and feel no relief. I repeatedly hear from family members of folks who have tried everything, and are not getting better. I sense the utter frustration and despair in their words, and it pains me. I, too, felt hopeless after trying countless medication combinations and sitting through years of psychotherapy sessions, only to continue my death ob...

Breast Cancer Retrospective
Before my breast cancer diagnosis, I was aware of breast cancer around me. A co-worker ' s mother, another co-worker ' s wife, my parent ' s neighbor, and more. But it never really touched me because no one I knew personally was diagnosed with breast cancer. It was a disease of older women. I also felt because I had previously had cancer that sometimes people expected me to be more sympathetic to other ' s cancer diagnoses. I did feel some guilt because of this.I never expected to be diagnosed with another cancer. I felt I already had my share of cancer with thyroid cancer. I didn ' t ' deserve ' any more. Because I had a ...

Demand Congress to go on Medicare at the age of 65
Born in Canada, our mother came to the United States after World War II and blended into the Greatest Generation. Raising a family in the second half of the 20th century saw her contribute to a thriving American society then maintain retirement health on Medicare. But in her early 90s, this tranquility was threatened when her HMO hospital tried to kill her.
She went to the emergency room with symptoms of the stomach flu, and ended up rapidly placed on palliative care with an erroneous diagnosis of end-stage liver cancer. Fortunately, after a long ordeal and because of our medical background, we thwarted hospital personnel ...

Is your doctor guilty of treating grain consumption?
Jennifer shared these comments about her husband’s early Wheat Belly transformation:
“My husband found your site a while back while doing research into symptoms he’s been experiencing for years. After following your advice with food, the doctor visits have stopped and I have a normal husband back.
“Prior to meeting him, he has always had issues with his weight and gut. He would exercise to the point of passing out and it just wouldn’t go anywhere. When I met him 5 years ago, he was jogging every night and exercising. He just couldn’t get the flabby stomach to go away and, every time the ...

Hope is a Hot Button
by Kathy Kastner As life draws to an end, hot buttons need only be barely touched to set off flares of righteousness. Hope is one such hot button, and often seems attached to ‘false’ – which crushes hope dead. I rail every time I hear the righteous pronounce: “You don’t want to give them false hope.’ Why is hope so contentious when benefits have proven huge? From Dr. Jerome Groopman ’s The Anatomy of Hope : " Belief and expectation -- the key elements of hope -- can block pain by releasing the brain ' s endorphins and enkephalins, mimicking the effects of morphine. In some cases, hope can also have i...

Chemoradiotherapy after surgery for gastric malignancy shows similar outcomes to post-operative chemotherapy
Post-operative treatment intensification with chemoradiotherapy does not achieve much better outcomes when compared to post-operative chemotherapy in patients with gastric cancer who have already undergone pre-operative chemotherapy, according to stage III data presented at the ESMO 18th World Congress of Stomach Cancer in Barcelona, Spain.

Alkaline Water Very Modestly Slows Aging in Mice
There are any number of ways to make mice live a little longer by slowing the accumulation of cell and tissue damage that causes age-related degeneration. Processes such as the cellular repair mechanisms of autophagy, for example, influence life span, and anything that causes a little damage so as to provoke greater levels of repair tends to make shorter-lived species like mice live somewhat longer. Since all of the mechanisms of cellular metabolism influence one another directly or indirectly, there are countless ways to increase the level of cellular housekeeping. This is true of any of the other processes thought to inf...

The Incredible Power of Reframing
Situation 1:
You walk into your bosses office with a lump in your throat. You know that he has found out you were doing research for your own online business you have wanted to start for months, on company time.
You also know this is strictly against company policy and you know the the chances are he’s going to fire you.
Ten minutes later with your worst fears realized you’re clearing your desk and your stomach is churning with anxiety and the nausea is welling in your throat.
What are you going to do?
Situation 2:

Fight Aging! Newsletter, June 20th 2016
We examined the engraftment and differentiation of alkaline phosphatase-positive NSCs expanded from the postnatal subventricular zone (SVZ), 3 months after grafting into the intact young or aged rat hippocampus. Graft-derived cells engrafted robustly into both young and aged hippocampi. Although most graft-derived cells pervasively migrated into different hippocampal layers, the graft cores endured and contained graft-derived neurons.
The results demonstrate that advanced age of the host at the time of grafting has no major adverse effects on engraftment, migration, and differentiation of grafted subventricular zone...

MKSAP: 68-year-old woman with dyspepsia
Test your medicine knowledge with the MKSAP challenge, in partnership with the American College of Physicians.
A 68-year-old woman undergoes upper endoscopy for evaluation of dyspepsia. She has a history of pernicious anemia. She has no other medical problems and her only medication is oral vitamin B12.
On physical examination, vital signs are normal, as is the remainder of the physical examination.
Upper endoscopy discloses a 6-mm polyp in the body of the stomach, which is removed by polypectomy. Other endoscopic findings, including biopsy of the duodenum to evaluate for celiac disease, are normal. Pathologic examinatio...

Stem Cells from Young Mice Heal Stomach Ulcers in Old Mice
When it comes to the question of whether young stem cells and a young tissue environment are necessary for the success of stem cell therapies, there is evidence to support all of the possible answers. It is a confusing picture at the moment, and it is very possible that the answer varies by cell type. Since the best option for therapy is to use the patient's own cells, it would be good to find that cell therapies can work effectively and produce meaningful benefits even when both cells and patient are old. In some studies researchers have seen little difference in short term outcomes between young and old individuals, whic...

Are Two Bricks Causing You Misery?
I sent this post out to my newsletter subscribers with no intention of using it as a blog post.
However, the deluge of e-mails I have received over the last 24-hours from people telling me how it helped and/or moved them made me think I should share it with you too.
I had a session withy own coach* yesterday and it has to be said, I was in a bit of a funk.
Just in the last 7-days our A/C quit, our trash compactor followed shortly after, and not to be outdone, our garage door ket opening itself randomly!
Then things got worse, much worse.
