Herbs for Life! Tele-Workshop with Dr. Bob

DB here! I am excited to host tonight’s Tele Workshop. I know most of you reading this take some type of herb or herb combination. Herbs can speed you up or slow you down. They can tonify your system; relax you so you’re calm as a cucumber. I use them for example in my clinic to take away the cravings for sweets, or build up your immune system. You can use them in your food right at home or buy them in a capsule. Regardless how you use Herbs, you would do best to add them to your strategy. We have some positions available to you and will be announcing some special opportunities for those of you who signed up: looking forward to the call. CLICK HERE for more details. DB

Want more energy? Want to reduce body pain? Read on!

 DB here! I wanted to give you a few tips to have more ENERGY!!!

And REDUCE PAIN!!

 

• You should do twenty minutes of active exercise EVERY DAY. I do not care what it is, but get off of your — YOU KNOW WHAT and MOVE!!
• Drink one quart of water a day minimum. Add one fourth of a teaspoon of Celtic Sea Salt — Celtic Sea Salt is adding minerals to your cells. Think of minerals as spark plugs.
• Eat A half of an apple every day. Eat one third cup of beets. Eat one medium of four or five baby carrots. This combo will move your bowels and clear up your skin.
• Add up to twelve mg of iodine to your daily routine, go slow, add 3mg every week. I had a new patient travel a great distance who told me adding the Iodoral to her life changed her outlook and energy. This same person added the ABC’s before she came in. Her skin on her face cleared up. NO KIDDING.
• Go to bed early, at least by 10. This is important those of you who burn the candle at both ends will get adrenal gland burn out.
• Do not eat Chocolate for EASTER, you will get left neck pain, and create a roller coaster of emotions.

Rocket Fuel in ALL Baby Formula – Did you read me? ALL!

DB here! I have followed toxicity for a long time. Percholate is a compound that is from rocket fuel. I know this may seem hard to believe but it is everywhere. Percolates biggest issue is the fact that beside being toxic and a burden to your life it is also stressful to your thyroid by being antagonistic to iodine. Read the following:

(Natural News) The CDC has conducted a study of infant formula products sold in the United States and shockingly found they were all contaminated with rocket fuel chemicals! Published in the Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology, these findings reveal that every single infant formula product tested was found to contain perchlorate. The highest levels were reportedly found in the cow’s milk formula products. How does perchlorate get into infant formula? It’s simple: It’s a contaminant in the water supply that’s given to dairy cows. Those cows, in turn, pass the perchlorate chemicals through their milk, and that milk is used to make infant formula that many (ignorant) parents still feed their babies. (Can you believe human mothers still feed their human babies milk made from bovine animals?) What’s a better alternative? First off, human breast milk is the obvious choice. But if that’s not available, goat’s milk infant formula is the next-best thing. (Check your local health food store for goat’s milk brands.) You can also read some recipes on home-made infant formula at the Dr. Weston Price Foundation http://www.westonaprice.org/childre…). Stop poisoning our babies! That rocket fuel chemicals are found in the water supply and, subsequently, infant formula is no surprise: Modern civilization is awash with toxic chemicals. Even breastfeeding may not avoid the issue, since virtually all human breast milk is also contaminated with perchlorate!  Check your water supply.   Read more by going to: http://www.naturalnews.com/025997.html

Household Cleaners Coming Clean…

 DB here! I was reading the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) and learned a few nuggets I wanted to pass on. (The WSJ is loaded with information that is very useful.) The whole economy is fueled by research and development of products. What is very interesting about today’s world is the fact the public is very astute, and manufacturers need to listen to the consumer because the manufacturers know they can take a huge hit in a matter of days caused by chatter on the internet and lose creditability.

 

The title of the article I read was “Household Products Come Clean”, what’s going on out there is the world of cleaning is high potency; lethal chemicals that can create harm and alter body physiology. I won’t make this a chemistry lesson, I will give you two chemicals to look for, and then send me a note if you find them in your products.

 

• Monoethanolamine, this is found in detergents and all purpose cleaners. It is used in various products such as Mr. Clean Multi-Surface Antibacterial Cleaner made by Procter and Gamble, and Clorox’s Formula 409 All Purpose Cleaner. Studied have linked this chemical to occupational asthma. The article goes on to say the manufacturers say it is safe…yadda…yadda…yadda…. The real challenge is if you have a child with asthma.
• Glycol ethers which have been linked to low fertility rates and low weight birth rates in laboratory animals.

I suggest you go to the American Cancer Society’s web site and look at environmental toxins. I encourage you to become more pro-active, and be AWARE of what you are using in your house especially if you have small children or you notice people have “runny noses” and just don’t feel good when you change a product.  I would suggest you may want to forward this blog on.

Don’t just ‘Show Me the Beef’, Tell Me What’s IN the Beef!

 

Should it be WHATS IN THE BEEF versus SHOW me the BEEF?

 

DB here! I just read an interesting article in the Wall Street Journal. There was a story on an imported cheese store in NYC that was concerned that the price of cheese from Europe was going to be more expensive because of a new tariff placed on the importing of cheese from the European Union. Do you want to know why? The US is/was retaliating against Europe’s refusal to import American Beef. Conventional American Beef is loaded with hormones and the Europeans do not want it. Guess who is eating eat? We are, let me qualify that; the uniformed public is; I do not eat it, I eat organic.

 

Do you get warm or hot in the evening after meals that have meat as a part of the dinner? If you do, and it is not uncommon it could be the chemicals in your steak or roast beef dinner. If you have tender breasts, a heavy menstrual flow, or if you are a male, and you have swelling in your prostate impairing urine flow – I would make the educated decision to go organic. The chemicals in the products you may be eating can cause an abundance of xenohormones. Organic animal tissue is the only way to go. Also, I would avoid FARM RAISED FISH. Yes you read that right. They use chemicals in fish food to color the flesh and anti-biotics to prevent the fish from getting infections. OK, so what do you do? Stop eating conventional meat, I would minimize going out to eat, where they use processed, tainted meat products. Eat at home, buy the right stuff. DB

Get Vitamin D levels Checked – NOW!

 

DB here! I just had someone post a comment on my blog, in regard to Vitamin D, you can read it yourself. I also taped TV today, if you live in the Northern Ohio area, I am on every Saturday at 5pm Eastern time. You can watch some of the programs at www.druglessdoctor.com. I will be adding the one I did on Vitamin D real soon. I do have my Educational videos on Vitamin D. I want you take the role of Vitamin D very serious. Go to the notes I have posted and read them. If you Vitamin D is low, it can interrupt your immune system. Vitamin D helps your cells “eat” unfriendly bacteria and organisms in a process called phagocytosis. I can tell you from my experience my energy is up since I have added the D to my life. Your liver is the store house for Vitamins A – D – E – and K. Vitamin D has been discovered to be as stronger or stronger anti-oxidant then Vitamin E. Regardless we use Cataplex D from Standard Process in the office 800 IU in one tablet; I generally have my patients take up to 3 daily. I also have a liquid Vitamin D from Biotics, one drop has 2000 IU. I have had one lady whose Vitamin D level was 6, low normal is 30. She has had a chronic infection in her body. Your body needs calcium to keep the immune system strong. Lack of D impairs the immune system. DB

Vitamin D

I had a test done and my level of vitamin D was 23. Way below what it should be. I am now supplementing with 10,000 IU’s every other day, am getting checked in a month or two and if its not sufficient then the doc is going to up it to every day. I had no clue the things caused by being deficient in this vitamin! I have recently been pushing my mom and sister who has osteoporosis to get their levels checked and am sharing your info with them. Wow and thank you.

Plastic Surgery Down 62% – Here’s why!

 

DB here! I was listening to the weather and a news report was aired that the plastic surgery procedures are down 62% compared to the last couple of years. There is less augmentation and other cosmetic surgeries taking place right now.  Here’s what you can do to be one of the many who do not opt for these drastic procedures:

 

DR. Bob’s Tips For Your Skin

Healthy skin is an inside out PROCESS!!

· Take one tablespoon of flax oil per one hundred pounds. This is liquid sunshine, helping calcium get to your skin

· Cook with olive oil. Robin Swoboda puts it on her skin. Avoid Trans fat.

· Eat avocados, slice them on your salad, or smash them add some onion and tomatoes. Onions are a good source of sulfur which is also good for your skin

· Try some Burt’s Bee cream for your cuticles

· Read labels, avoid sodium lauryl sulfate.

· Take three or four calcium lactate supplements on an empty stomach

· Drink more water. At least a quart a day

· Eat walnuts for good oil

· Eat sesame seed for calcium

· Bell peppers are good for Vitamin C. Do not eat citrus when the temperature is less than sixty degrees (This is why they grow in the south)

· Avoid chlorine in pools and hot tubs. You want to get a shower de-chlorinator. You can take up to twelve milligrams of iodine a day. Try two or three kelp tablets to start.

The TV host went on to say the latest scientific research is strongly encouraging women only to use baby aspirin to avoid the bad effects associated with internal bleeding caused by taking stronger aspirin. Aspirin by the way causes long term can cause liver disease, and thin the blood so much it can be a factor causing stroke an intestinal bleeding.

I can save you some aggravation down the road so your skin will stay vibrant and elastic so you will not need the services of a cosmetic surgeon.

 

The number of advertisements for medications on TV, radio, magazines and the internet is actually overwhelming at times. There is a common prescription for asthma called Singular; the commentator said it is different than other asthma medications because it reduces the component that causes inflammation. I can tell you your goal is to stop inflammation before it will affect your lungs. In my Trans Fat Survival Guide I go into great detail in the Pain Game Chapter on how to avoid inflammation. Taking Flax oil and avoiding sugar goes a long way to prevent asthma. Dairy products are common factors resulting in asthma. I would not take any prescription that tricks the body. Go to www.druglessdoctor.com for more details a natural health. I have three ten minute videos on skin health. We also use a great product from GAIA herbs. DB

Sweet Defeat = the pain caused by eating sugars…

DB here!! I had a very interesting couple of days. If you have followed my itinerary with my lovely wife Deb you can see we have been on the gooooooo!!

Go back and watch some of the pictures and videos on February 13^th, here is the link, http://www.druglessdoctor.com/Home/Blog/tabid/897/EntryID/125/Default.aspx.

 

We had a lot of fun at Channel 8. The program will be on my site very soon. Well, on Friday February 13^th night we had an awesome group that was at Barnes and Noble Book Store for my book discussion. A lot of questions! One interesting query was, “Dr. Bob, how can you help fibromyalgia?” Now, you would think that would be a strange question for a book signing and workshop on SEX and ROMANCE. She apparently was having pain, I am sure the misery she was in, definitely prevented her from having an intimate relationship with her spouse.

Can I tell you- a leading cause of fibromyalgia pain would include; sugar stressing the adrenal glands, to much citrus creating an alkaline pH, lack of Vitamin D creating bone tissue pain and even lack of iodine.

 

Iodine is needed for thyroid function; the thyroid and para-thyroid are involved in calcium movement. We had another person comment who has a low thyroid; she wanted to know if swimming could affect her thyroid? Swimming can lower the iodine in ones body because of chemicals in the water – bromine, fluorine and chlorine.

 

Deb and I spoke at our church on Sunday, the audience was very receptive on the message of Sex and Romance, much to our surprise we sold several ADHD books!! We had much discussion on adult ADHD. When one has ADHD as a child, it is does not generally go away as an adult unless there is a change. One such person was shocked to learn that dairy may be a factor in ADHD. I explained that an abundance of dairy sabotages the formation of a fat in the brain called DHA. I would encourage you to go to back to  www.druglessdoctor.com, and watch the video on ADHD. ADHD translates into depression as time goes on. Depression and those taking anti-depressants have challenges with the emotions and physical aspects of sexual intimacy. If you are depressed or have ADHD you may want to fill out a HEALTH SURVEY, to see if you have a nutritional cause of the problem. DB

 

PS: You really need to watch this news video on a study done on High Fructose Corn Syrup. Pass this on. It is VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!! Corn Syrup is WORSE for you than table sugar! <<<Click to watch.

We all know someone who “can’t get pregnant”, don’t we?

 DB here! Infertility is a huge issue today. Some may think couples are waiting to long, others do not know why. From my observation I can tell you from my point there are several reasons for infertility.

 

1. Low thyroid
2. Lack of adequate progesterone
3. Sugar consumption
4. Stress

 

The thyroid gland acts much like the gas pedal of the body. When the thyroid is not up to par, there will be constipation and congestion in the liver. The thyroid requires iodine. Iodine is not only used by the thyroid but the ovaries. Here is a real stealth issue most are not aware of; bromine, fluorine and chlorine sabotage iodine.  (Found in municipal water, white bread, soda…) 

That is why we complete urine iodine tests on females attempting to get pregnant. Now, someone may become pregnant, then the real issue, how long can they stay with child. The fetus needs enough progesterone to stay in tact. The challenge with sugar and stress, they deplete the adrenal gland. Many think the adrenal gland is insignificant, but every bit of hormone helps. That is also a reason we do the Adrenal Stress Index and Female Hormone Panels. Can I let you in a little known secret; wheat product or items with gluten can create adrenal stress. What does that mean Dr. Bob? Your pastries, cookies, bagels, Kaiser rolls, hamburger buns, Danish etc. can be a possible cause why you may have adrenal exhaustion and not be able to get pregnant or stay with child. One last item, I have noticed patients with progesterone issues have a greater chance to get chronic degenerative conditions like MS or rheumatoid arthritis. All of this is help-able and preventable. I would encourage you to tell your family or friends, also read my Hormone book, and even complete a Maestro. I have seen a tremendous response by making a few easy changes. DB

 

Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) – MUST READ!

DBhere! Great Sunday to all of you, hard to believe how fast January is going. Christmas was a month ago all ready. Boy, time is zipping by. We were evaluating the topics that the public seems to be interested in via our constant aspiration to help people; two or three items appear to create the most desire, infertility and poly cystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). I want to focus on PCOS today, and will discuss it more in the future. I have found with experience that any age female can have ovarian cysts, teens to late forties. I believe that there are two main factors, lack of iodine and excessive estrogen. Let’s talk about lack of iodine. Iodine deficiencies are very common. All ages can have it, a common body signal for children would include fevers and growing pains. This is really important because a lot of kids are treated as hypochondriacs because parents think they complain always, this is REAL. If you have a child that is always complaining of pain, you would want to fill out a Maestro and tell us in the note you are interested in iodine. Now if a child had growing pains, and this child is now a teen, and if the child’s gender is female, and she is complaining of abdomen pain mid menstrual cycle of during the menstrual flow, it could be a sign of a need for iodine. Now, do not think all ovary pain is an iodine issue, but, it is common. Other body signals of low iodine would include cold hands and feet, tired, high cholesterol and constipation. Go to the drugless media aspect of the www.DruglessDoctor.com, and watch the videos on iodine. Here is an important key, you need to take iodine slow, we encourage one three mg tablet a day for one week, then two tabs for a week, then three, then four. When you get to four, we have our patients take one Iodoral a day for a week, then one Iodoral with one Prolamine Iodine from Standard Process. If you are toxic with bromine, fluorine or chlorine, and take iodine to fast you could have a skin rash, heavy metal taster in your mouth and even a skin rash. How do you know if you a are low in iodine? You could have a urine iodine test done, that will help, and we have that information on our site. You may want a thyroid profile. The medical community does not have a problem removing cysts on ovaries and even taking ovaries out. I can tell you from my experience we have had tremendous success with feeding the body right, normalizing the estrogen and progesterone levels and have the cysts disappear on their own. More next time. DB 

PS: I had someone tell me on Friday, that another body signal of low iodine is wide spaced teeth. She was so excited because her teeth were getting closer. This is an important BLOG, and could help some one a lot. PASS IT ON.
