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 ...

Can This Breakfast Food Reverse Alzheimer ’ s?
I’m sure you’ve noticed how expensive eggs have gotten lately. The price has soared more than any other food in the supermarket…up 60% from one year ago.1
One reason for skyrocketing prices is the ongoing avian flu epidemic. But another reason is that demand for “nature’s perfect food” has increased substantially.
And that is good news because eggs are essential for your health – including the fight against Alzheimer’s.
And that means they’re worth every penny for the way they protect your brain.
Two breakthrough studies back up what I’ve been telling my patients for over three decades…

Too Little Sleep Destroys DNA?
I talk to my patients about the danger of not sleeping all the time. Unfortunately, it’s a common problem that affects 75 million Americans.
People who don’t sleep, or sleep poorly, have up to 400% more accidents that those who get a good night’s rest. Not getting enough sleep also increases your risk of developing chronic diseases.
Studies, including a large meta-analysis of 470,000 adults, found that those who slept less than six hours developed a:1,2,3,4,5
48% increase in the incidence of coronary heart disease
30% increased risk of dementia
15% increase in the incidence of stroke
50% cancer risk
17% higher risk ...

“Quackery” that saves lives
I’m used to being a target of mainstream medicine. I can’t even count the number of times I’ve been called a “quack.”
Let me give you just one example…
For decades I’ve been treating my patients with a proven therapy. The FDA approved it way back in 1953. I use it to help my patients detox from mercury, lead, cadmium and other heavy metals. In fact, more than 100,000 people get this therapy every year in the U.S.
But mainstream doctors still laugh at the idea of this treatment and think it’s pure bunk.
I’m talking about intravenous (IV) chelation.
Even though I’ve...

How To Lower Risk of Heart Disease and Stroke
Italy's Emma Morano will be celebrating her 117th birthday at the end of this month. She's the oldest living person in the world.
And when she was asked what her secret to longevity was, she didn't miss a beat.
Her answer? She eats two or three eggs every day.
I'm not at all surprised by Emma's long, healthy life. People thrived on eggs for millions of years.
The Myth of Eggs and Cholesterol
That is, until the 1950s, when they came under attack because they're high in cholesterol. Around that time, cholesterol was blamed for causing heart disease.
And we now know that's not true.
Choleste...

Long Distance Running Effects On Your Health
Long distance running is becoming more and more popular. Close to two million people every year drag themselves across the finish lines. And that’s just in half marathon races. Runners in these 13.1 mile events have increased six-fold over the past 25 years.
All these amateur athletes think they’re getting really healthy as they work themselves up to full marathons. But the truth is they are cutting years off their life.
You can see it for yourself if you stand at the finish line of any race. The hardcore runners look terrible. They look gaunt and malnourished. They are hunched over and have a stiff awkwa...

Shortcut to Better Brain Power
Natural caffeine is one of the oldest stimulants in the world. And it’s loaded with health benefits.
It can enhance your mental clarity and focus, and it’s a potent antioxidant… as long as you take it in moderation and it comes from natural sources.
But the problem with most energy drinks these days is the caffeine itself. It’s unnatural and synthetic.
We’ve known for a long time that the antioxidant power of caffeine cuts the risk of dying from heart disease or developing Alzheimer’s.
But now a study from the Department of Nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health, researchers looked at 30 years of data...

Nature’s Most Powerful Age Fighter?
When I lecture at anti-aging conferences around the world, I get a good sense of what the leading anti-aging physicians are thinking about.
And I’m surprised by how many are still holding out hope for an anti-aging “drug.”
But I’m not holding my breath.
And even if the FDA approved a drug for aging, it would likely include a laundry list of side effects, and only affect a small range of age-related decline.
I’ve always had more faith in nature.
Many of the most powerful age fighters are naturally occurring, and they do a better job of supporting and lengthening your telomeres than any drug.
Te...

Welcome To My World, Dr. Oz
Dr. Oz and I must be doing something right – otherwise, we wouldn’t incur the wrath of the medical establishment, Big Pharma and Big Agra.
Recently, 10 doctors lobbied Columbia University to oust celebrity physician Mehmet Oz from the distinguished university’s hospital and its department of health sciences and medicine.
In a letter to the department’s dean of faculty, the doctors attacked him for presenting alternative and natural cures on his syndicated TV program, The Dr. Oz Show.
They also chastised him for being concerned about genetically modified crops.
Welcome to my world, Dr. Oz.
Since graduati...

Meditate And Live Longer
Before I practiced medicine at my Wellness Center, I was a sports physiology educator. So I know first-hand the value of a sound mind in a sound body.
In fact, my “whole-body, whole-mind” approach led me to study anti-aging in depth, which as you know has become my main areas of specialization. In fact, I was one of the first physicians in the country to be certified as an anti-aging specialist.
While advising a gymnastics team back in those early days, I often found myself dealing with the mental states of athletes.
And that’s when I really discovered the power of meditation. I taught many of these gymna...
