Information for New Clients

In order to better map your biochemical pathways and fine tune your program, it is very helpful to have certain blood test results. Some of these tests will be new to your current physician, and he/she may also be unfamiliar in working with, and/or interpreting those results. These tests measure autoimmune response and endocrine functions - the two biggest targets in the body for environmental contaminants, and chronic debilitating conditions. I refer to them collectively as "Environmentally Induced Syndromes".

To date, I have been researching this phenomenon since 1977 and have seven U.S. patents relating to Environmental Induced Illness, which affects us all to some degree. Thus, since my collective research has not been made widely available to practicing physicians, as yet, it is unfair to expect your physician to be versed in this program I have developed. The blood tests that are helpful are:

Estradiol and Total Estrogens: (must be separate assay for each / not calculated by one from another) These give an approximate xenoestrogen body burden
Thyroid Profile
TSH
Anti-Thyroglobulin Antibody Titre
Anti-Microsomal Antibody Titre
(renamed "Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody Titre" or TPO)
Thyroid Binding Globulins
DHEA Serum
Testosterone
Progesterone
ANA
RA
SED RATE
C- reactive protein

It is also very helpful to do a hair analysis as a screen for heavy metals. Some areas of the country have endemic metal contamination that is naturally occurring, but can cause or contribute to ill health. The most notorious in the in the last ten years are high levels of arsenic and manganese in the water supply in certain communities.

Hair can be accurately analyzed for about 40 elements, all minerals and metals. It is not good for vitamins or organic compounds, but it gives us yet another look, through another window, to the inside of a body that we cannot readily enter. The more windows that we can look through, the better we can judge the inside layout of a house that we cannot readily enter.

This test is performed by taking small samples of hair from the back of the head, from the crown down, cut at the scalp for females. For males, if the hair is very short, trimmings from the back of the head will do. Take the lock you have just cut at the scalp and trim again, saving two inches closest to the head. Try to take many small samples so you don't make a big bald spot. Keep taking samples until you get two packed tablespoons of hair.

Hair analysis runs $65. This, unfortunately, is not covered by the vast majority of insurance policies out there.

This program is also not for everyone. If you are not interested in making the healthy lifestyle changes necessary to facilitate good health like quitting smoking, junk food, increasing exercise and developing a better personal / emotional and perhaps spiritual outlook on life, then it is likely that you are not ready to endure the changes necessary to feel better in the longer term.

There are no magic pills, diet or gizmo that will do all the work for a truly sedimentary person. By that, I mean people who are not willing to go the whole 9 yards, simply will not get the magnitude of desired results which others have achieved.

Many syndrome affected people are too sick to participate in a semi-rigorous physical exercise program, at least at first. And, if they forced themselves into it, as some have done, they find themselves often severely worse. But a will and drive to help themselves emotionally will give them the motivation to follow the program, make those healthy changes and eventually be able to incorporate exercises that will raise them to another level of health.

Infrared saunas are extremely helpful in detoxing environmental chemicals and to remove blockages in your biochemistry. These toxins affect you emotionally, physically and even spiritually. We have saunas available at a discount for our clients.
