How To Avoid China ’ s Medicine Monopoly
I want to share a shocking statistic with you… Around 80% of all the pharmaceuticals sold in America — both prescription and over-the-counter — are manufactured in China. I’m talking about drugs for Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, blood pressure and blood thinners, diuretics, aspirin, antibiotics, and a big chunk of the world’s insulin and diabetes drugs — just to name a few.1 We don’t even make penicillin anymore. The last penicillin plant in the U.S. closed its doors in 2004. Americans who rely on medicine are now almost entirely at the mercy of a country whose relations with the U.S. have become more ...

Himalayan Mushroom Increases Sexual Stamina
In this study, the men received a dose of 250 mg.11 Look for wild-harvested cordyceps from Tibet When choosing a supplement, always check the source. Some Cordyceps supplements come from harvested sources that are 50 times weaker than natural, wild sources. As a supplement, I recommend wild Cordyceps from Tibet. Take 2 to 5 grams twice daily for best results. You can also brew a cup of Cordyceps tea. I add peppermint to enhance the flavor. Here’s a simple recipe I use: Boil 2 cups of filtered water in a small saucepan. Add one gram of dried cordyceps to water. Boil vigorously for one minute. Turn down the heat and simme...

Antibiotics Destroy Memories?
Even in my earliest days of practicing medicine, I was never a big fan of prescribing antibiotics – except, of course, in cases of extreme or life-threatening infections. Because even back then, I was concerned about the damage these drugs could cause to your gut. That’s because trillions of microscopic bacteria – some that protect against certain diseases and some that can cause disease – live in your microbiome and exist in a delicate balance with each other. The problem is that antibiotics can’t distinguish between so-called “good” bacteria and the “bad” ones causing the infection. These drugs kill eve...

Non-invasive Transcranial Electrical Stimulation (TES) shows early promise to treat ADHD symptoms in children
While tDCS uses constant current intensity, tRNS and tACS use oscillating current. The vertical axis represents the current intensity in milliamp (mA), while the horizontal axis illustrates the time-course. Source: Wikipedia. Many children with ADHD benefit from medication treatment, behavioral treatment, or their combination, but others do not. In addition, parents are often reluctant to start their child on medication and high quality behavioral treatments are not readily accessible in many areas. The long-term efficacy of these treatments is also less than desirable. Thus, despite these evidence-based ADHD treatments, t...
