Being Proactive With Your Health DecisionsWritten by David Lear
In today’s world, there’s a definite need to be proactive in protecting our health. But that assumes there’s something you CAN do to protect it. See, most people figure they’re pretty powerless. That’s a good thing for healthcare establishment. They like that. You’re one with disease and they’re one with solution. Only one small problem, though. In 2001, now get this, in 783,000 people died from healthcare-related screw-ups. That’s a fact. Imagine that. That’s 2,100 people a day. That’s 8 jumbo jets going up in flames every day. Don’t get me wrong. Doctors and medical facilities are great when it comes to trauma care, bone setting and that kind of thing. But give me a break: 783,000 dead from medical mistakes? No wonder that’s third leading cause of death in U.S. Anyway, most people don’t even know that. If they get sick, well, only thing they know to do is to submit themselves to conventional medical treatment – which of course is all about treating sickness. But that’s not health care. That’s sickness care. Real health care is about building health from ground up. Sickness care is about cutting, radiating, poisoning and taking prescription drugs, which by way can be very toxic. So, as I see it anyway, we’ve only got two options. Be good little medical consumers and go along with healthcare program that we’ve all been taught to buy in to - or start thinking things through for ourselves - and no one can make that happen but you. It’s your decision – your choice – and your life.
| | Stem Cells and GlyconutrientsWritten by David Lear
Over past few years, stem cells have been getting a lot of attention. What makes them so interesting is their ability to stimulate production of many types of healthy cells. That means that a single stem cell can turn itself into brain cells, liver cells, skin cells, pancreas cells, and so on. In February of 2003, an article about stem cells was published in Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA). A team of researchers at Johns Hopkins Medical Center reported, for first time, that undifferentiated donor stem cells were able to cross blood brain barrier and morph themselves into neuronal cells. This was an especially important finding because, of all cells in body, neuron cells are most advanced and complicated. This is significant because it means that if stem cells can morph themselves into brain neurons, then, chances are they can transform themselves into other types of cells too. In a separate but related area of science, there is a growing body of evidence that a specialized area of nutrition called “glyconutrition” is causing body to manufacture its own stem cells from its own bone marrow. This research is being overseen by Dr. Reg McDaniel M.D. at Fischer Institute. Until JAMA article came out, Dr. McDaniel’s team were in quite a quandary as to how people with varying neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, Children’s Cerebral Palsy, Down’s Syndrome, and Autism, were all experiencing increases in brain function when glyconutrients and other micronutrients were added to their diets. After initial discovery that stem cells stimulated growth of neuron cells, researchers wanted to know if these newly created neuron cells worked correctly. To do this, they turned their attention to children in comas. One was a boy who had been in a coma for three years. Glyconutrients were added to his feeding tube and within five days his doctor started seeing changes in his brain function. All this is became more noteworthy when it was discovered that this wasn’t an isolated case. Other cases have been reported in which children have been awakened from long-term comas after receiving glyconutritional supplements introduced through feeding tubes.
