You really CANNOT afford to go short of vitamin D. Remember, it’s silly cheap, so there is no need to skimp. You can get 5,000 IU (plenty for an adult), 240 caps, for under $8 if you Google it! Take only D3, by the way, not the very inferior form of D2. Vitamin D2 was the first synthetic form of Vitamin D. Vegans use it.  D2 can be used to fortify foods, it’s in some vitamin D supplements and is the type put in all vitamin prescriptions. Therefore, don’t bother your doctor for a script. You’ll get junk nutrition. Vitamin D insufficiency has been associated with a variety of clinical disorders and chronic diseases, including impaired balance, decreased muscle strength, mood and cognitive dysfunction, autoimmune disorders such as multiple sclerosis and diabetes (types 1 and 2), and certain forms of cancer. Woa! This goes way beyond preventing rickets! It even goes beyond vitamin D as an immune stimulator.

Nature Is Really Dumb (Or So Most Doctors Think… they really believe they know better) You know what I think! Nature is wise and a million times more powerful than any scientist or doctor. She’s a metaphor, of course. But if old Granny Nature was out there, I bet she’d be pretty pee’ed off with […]

Doctors are hypocrites? No, you’re kidding me! I don’t believe it! Well, according to a study it’s true. When choosing their own treatment, doctors often do something different to what they tell their patients. Sometimes, very different. For example, a doctor would not choose an option he or she knew could be fatal—even though he […]

The Intriguing ‘Link’ Between Depression and Cancer Those of you who read my ground-breaking round up of successful (and some not-so-successful)  cancer alternative therapies called “Cancer Research Secrets” will know that I lay great emphasis on the psychological aspect of cancer containment. My friend Lee Euler, who is an internationally-acclaimed copy writer, also happens to be a good author and recently wrote a very good piece on this very topic and Lee has agreed I can print it here, in full. Martin, a 70-year old Georgia resident, experienced two major losses within a short time. First he lost his wife of 40 years. Then he remarried, but his new wife of 6 weeks jilted and deserted him. He became very depressed. Two and a half years later Martin was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.1 Was there a hidden link between his depression and the cancer? A study published in the September/October 2003 Psychosomatic Medicine suggests there IS such a link. In the jargon of science, the findings are “statistically significant”. So is cancer just the last straw in an unhappy life?

Hyperventilation The subject of hyperventilation is of considerable importance to many allergics. Opinions seem to divide doctors into two distinct groups: those who believe that hyperventilation – and not allergy – is the real cause of the patient’s symptoms and those who think that allergies trigger hyperventilation, which then leads to symptoms, but that allergies […]

Here’s a big step forward in dieting technique. Ever wonder why some people seem to lose weight easily and yet others, on exactly the same regimen, don’t seem to be able to lose at all? The answer always was that people are different. But to understand just how different, we need modern science, especially an understanding of DNA variability.
