Blood Level of Lead Standard Lowered.

Written by on

I await these kinds of moves.  It’s about time.

There are certain elements that when we are exposed to them in excess, especially children, can cause a range of serious problems and symptoms.

One such element is lead.  Ranks right up there with mercury, aluminum, cadmium and fluoride in my book.

The new standard has gone from ten micrograms per deciliter of blood down to 5 micrograms.

In my opinion, there simply is no safe level, especially again for children.  Bringing it down this far is an improvement, but why not even lower. 

It’s not dissimilar from cigarette smoke, as one national article states and that I agree with…

How much cigarette smoke do we want our toddlers, infants and children exposed to?

What is the “safe” level of cigarette smoke?

The zeolite I use as part of the Total Body Detox silver/zeolite combo is an amazing chelator, capable of grabbing the lead, trapping it in its molecular structure, and escorting the lead out of the body via the urine.  The product can be found at the candida approach tab at the top of the page…scroll down and you’ll find the product picture.  My all-time favorite zeolite based on the tests the company has done to prove its efficacy, and based on my own personal outstanding results.

Need a Lower Back, Shoulder, or Chest Injury? Then DO THIS:

Presented via a real-life example, with some humor (don’t miss the music)…but also shows us exactly what NOT to do if we are working out our chest via the barbell press:

People, people, PUH-LEEEEEEZE!!!!

He has what looks like 45 and 35lb plates on what’s likely about a 50lb bar (hard to see the bar) taking on what amounts to a lot of weight for someone of his size and lack of overall build. 

WHAT am I SAYING???

…OBVIOUSLY, it’s way too much weight!

Note his buttocks…

(No, not because they’re sexy)…

Note how they lift off the bench to try to compensate for the lift.

He is asking for more problems than I can even outline here in a short blog.

There is a time for cheating with weights.  They are to be reserved for the experienced and professionals.

For ALL others, we need clean, strict, slow form.  Reduce the poundages and focus on the muscle being trained.

Oye VEY.

An Open Challenge to Doctors Everywhere:

An Open Challenge to Doctors Everywhere:

I am daring doctors everywhere to drop their egos, focus on the health and well-being of their patients, suspend all judgment about what you think you know over what your patient knows, put aside your entire education (but keep it in your back pocket), and instead consider all the “quack” treatments, suggestions and supplements as well as the alternative information, including reports from people claiming to achieve results using a different modality than one you’re used to.

And last but not least…set aside every prescription drug you have at your disposal, and consider the supplements, herbs, food plans and technologies your patients are bringing you, as a possible new way of helping those who come to you.

Can you do it?

Or will you insist that:

Only you could possibly have the answers for your patient.

That you are the professional here, the one with the education.

That if it’s not in the medical books, it’s all bunk.

That alternative remedies of all kinds do not work.

That if double-blind studies are not done on a modality, it is quackery.

That only the FDA knows what is best for everyone.

That the alternative supplement that the patient believes helped them is merely a the PLACEBO effect, not a CAUSE and effect.

That a patient complaining of constant pain is really just nuts, because all the drugs that help the condition have been prescribed…so he/she MUST be nuts.

Antibiotics never hurt anyone, and there is no such thing as candida overgrowth.

Let’s see how big your egos REALLY are.

Fast Food and Depression Link Established:

Written by on

A recent study at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Carnaria and University of Granada in Spain showed that commercial baked goods, such as cakes, doughnuts, croissants and fast foods like hamburgers, hot dogs and pizza are linked to depression.

Consumers eating these foods are literally over 50% more likely to suffer from depression.

Most importantly the study suggested that in the long-term, even eating small quantities of these kinds of foods lead to a significantly higher chance of developing depression.

Almost 9,000 people participated in the study as part of the SUN Project who before the study, had never been diagnosed with depression nor taken antidepressants.

I know from my own personal experience that this is unquestionably true.  I would factor in alcohol as well, but back before I cleaned up my diet, I was unquestionably dealing with on-going anxiety and depression, that for me now, is basically non-existent.

Once a new lifestyle is committed to, the rewards are such that one never turns back.  Why would one want to when the body chisels down, the skin clears up, the mental outlook improves and life just gets all-around “better?”

It has been 100% worth it.

Underarm Aluminum; Safe by Default?

Written by on

I’m simply not going to put an antiperspirant under my arm, in my pits, where the sweat glands are, offering too much opportunity for aluminum to enter my body, inert or not, nor any of the other myriad of chemicals used to tame the stinkies.

Mind you, sweat really has no scent.  It’s when it mixes with bacteria that the place starts to smell like a teen-aged locker room.

But what irks me, is when people will say “there are no studies proving that aluminum under the arm causes (breast cancer, Alzheimer’s, etc).”

To quote an author directly, an author whom I respect some opinions from, but definitely disagree strongly with others:

“…antiperspirant , with its aluminum compounds, could in fact be a breast-cancer contributor.  But this is all speculative—a reasonable theory but one that has not been proven in studies on humans.”

My gripe is this:

In order to determine conclusively that the aluminum compounds actually do cause breast cancer, we would need to study humans voluntarily exposing themselves to a possible carcinogen, with the understanding that this exposure may cause cancer, over the course of time…be it years or a lifetime.  (And certainly let’s NOT test on animals our own lack of common sense).

How do you find human subjects willing to expose themselves to a potential carcinogen for study?

While we’re at it, can we get some human subjects who might be willing to suck on some mercury-amalgam jawbreakers every day for the next five years-plus to see how the silver/mercury fillings in our mouths may be affecting us?  Any Mercury-Mad-Hatter volunteers? (Search if you don’t get the reference).

Certain metals we well-know are damaging to the body when we are overexposed to them in various contexts.  Others are highly suspected.

There are alternatives to using aluminum, as there are to mercury.

I wonder why they’re not being more actively used, especially when there is concern, and there is demand.

 

Huge Developments, Multiple Areas, in the FLFL Program.

Written by on

I have a couple announcements pending as the participants in the FacelessFatloss program are aware.

After just a bit more testing and some coordinating, I will be able to release the information, and I can’t stress it enough…you all know I’m not prone to hyperbole…this is absolutely HUGE news, on both counts.

Most of you now know about the third development, in offering the cellular/colloidal silver as an option to the ionic silver.  Those new to my program won’t notice this change, since it’s already built into the program.  But that too was a biggie, having wanted to provide the product for the FLFL community for over three years now, and finally finding some awesome nutritionists whom I could connect with to offer it to you.

I am hoping most of you are taking on the fast/cleanse.  I am still hearing steady reports back, consistently, that this part of the program is crucial to helping create some real change in lifestyle and progress with fat loss.  The “cleaning out” is just essential for far too many of us who have clogged our colons with a burden that needs to be lifted.  I feel strongly that the supplements I suggest for use with the fast are part of what makes it so successful…we are human garbage collectors of pathogens and toxins.  It is an on-going effort to keep ourselves clean, just like anything in life that collects debris.  The fact that western society so clearly neglects this part of needed general maintenance is reflected everywhere we look in ill-health and large bodies.

On top of all these latest developments (the three in total, two to-be-announced) there is yet ANOTHER new development that I’m almost AS excited about as well.

Folks, I don’t know how/why, but so many things are falling into place all at once that is enabling me to bring you a top-notch approach to superior health and wellness, with some sex appeal to boot.  It makes me incredibly happy to be able to present these options to you, options well-researched, used, and proven to improve ourselves in body, mind and spirit.  It is my hope that I’ve made this pursuit a fraction the effort it would have been for you otherwise.  Only took me about twenty years and a few chunks of an already-depleted nest egg to get here.  😉
