Guess what? Just in case you haven’t heard…

The ‘spin machine’ of the media and the industry and even the frail FDA is on ‘high alert’ and has been activated to contest the statements that Dr. Oz provided yesterday about Apple Juice and Arsenic which is poisoning our children with insufficient regulatory controls.

I watched with amazement as all of the morning TV shows immediately got on the ‘band wagon’ to discuss this issue. At least two of the shows interviewed Dr. Oz while making their own commentary about this Hot Topic.

Good Morning America began with Dr. B revealing his irritable frustration with Dr. Oz for exposing this health risk in public. Dr. B acted as if the investigation and the research Labs were mistaken in their conclusions. Dr. B needs to ‘get a grip’ on the toxic reality of the heavy metals in our food and our water and our soil which are poisoning not only our children, but adults and animals for endless future generations.

“Settle Down, Dr. B” and check your facts. You will find that the toxicity from heavy metals is a much more serious health issue than you were aware of and it deserves the open, honest discussion that Dr. Oz has called for with his initial conversation. Dr. B is the perfect example of someone being critical when the hidden truth has been revealed and the game is ‘up’ and the proverbial ‘cat is out of the bag’. He is nearly as ignorant about this issue as are the women of The View! Dr. B clearly has no education nor training in Chelation Therapy, so he could use a colleague like Dr. Elmer Cranston to bring him up to snuff on this significant issue.

The View segment about Dr. Oz and Arsenic in Apple Juice

The women of The View displayed their ignorance, except for the lone voice of reason: Elisabeth. She has more experience and direct knowledge of the health issues inherent in our food supply, particularly with children and the gluten-free diet. If you are going to listen to anyone, pay attention to what Elisabeth is saying about Arsenic and Apple Juice and the FDA.

Elisabeth on The View

Whoopi and Joy voiced their opinion, but they are clueless when it comes to the properties of Arsenic. Whoopi actually thinks that there is ‘good’ Arsenic. She needs a chemistry lesson about organic and inorganic states of elements. Both are toxic to the human body. I implore the uninformed ladies of The View to invite an expert to their show to keep you ‘abreast’ and demonstrate what happens to a person’s Red Blood Cells when they come into contact with Arsenic and other heavy metals in the bloodstream using a Live Cell Dark Field Microscope to reveal the truth of the matter to these hotheads. I could refer to them as ’empty heads’, but that will only apply if they refuse to become better informed about this health issue.

The Today Show and Matt Talk with Dr. Oz about Unacceptable Levels of Arsenic in Apple Juice

The there was the more level-headed Matt on The Today Show who engaged in a more balanced discussion with Dr. Oz. Both he and the doctor are parents of children who drink Apple Juice. What all of these people missed was that there is an easy solution until all of the evidence is weighed and understood by parents, physicians, and the public.

It is a simple solution to purchase and consume organic Apple Juice from reputable companies that Whole Foods Markets has selected to display their products on their grocery store shelves. We have been buying and drinking these organic juices for decades and evaluating them with our EAV equipment for purity. They are safe and you can give these brands of Apple Juice to your children without hesitation.

I am going to take it one step further. This model of organic whole foods applies not only to Apple Juice, but all of the food and beverages that are consumed in this country. If you have yet to make the connection between the statistical increases of diseases like Diabetes, Heart Disease, and Cancer since the advent of processed foods; then you have some remedial education coming to illuminate you.

If the FDA were truly doing their job, they would impound imports of food from China and other countries until each shipment can be properly inspected. There have been far too many instances where regulatory control is lax and insufficient at best. The FDA and EPA guidelines and policies need to be revamped and enforced now, without further excuses to protect our children. Even the FDA standards for organic certification are a joke to those of us who have monitored the agency for decades. They have a shamefully inadequate track record. No latter to Dr. Oz can contest that! If anything comes from this, we hope that the public will put pressure on the FDA to do their jobs correctly.

I was satisfied with the way Dr. Oz handled the interviews from the GMA and The Today Show. He stands by the investigatory procedures and lab work that his staff performed when producing this episode. He could have gone even further than he did yesterday. I know that I did in my post which exposed more of the truth about the dangers of heavy metals to the human body. There are no safe levels and all exposure presents a health risk until the human body is detoxified using Liquid Zeolite or Chelation Therapy. Honestly, let’s get down to the nitty gritty!

Every molecule of Arsenic, Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, Nickel, and other heavy metals that enter the human body damage the cells of the body until they are eliminated. This is why Dr. Oz is concerned about the long-term consequences to children over a lengthy period of time. The toxic load of heavy metals continues to accumulate in the body and continues to damage the cells. There is ample evidence in the literature and in clinical practice of these facts. No one, not Dr. B and not the FDA, and not the average person who works for a company that manufactures a juice can debate that and win.

I have watched the Red Blood Cells in the bloodstream of real human beings under the Live Cell Dark Field Microscope since the early 1980s show the result of coming into contact with shards of heavy metals. They DIE! You can see it happening right before your eyes. So if it’s proof you want, there it is…even for the most ardent sceptic!

The microscope shows how a heavy metal like Arsenic touches a Red Blood Cell. The Red Blood Cell literally contracts and collapses and dies. The shard of heavy metal continues to circulate in the blood and every time it touches another Cell, that Cell DIES. This is more than a statistical estimate of ‘parts per million’ in lab tests that meet the meager requirements of the FDA and the EPA. This is real. You can see every Cell wither and die 100% of the time it comes into contact with a heavy metal.

I know this for a fact. I have seen it in many people’s blood. I have even seen it in my own blood! So no one can tell me that I don’t know exactly what I am talking about! Get it through your thick heads: Heavy Metals are poisoning the human body and damaging Cells by their very presence.

So all of you idiots can argue with Dr. Oz and yourselves all day long for the rest of your lives while lab test after lab test returns comparable results; but you will be doing our children a disservice unless you get down to the truth that Arsenic and other heavy metals have no place in our food supply or in any beverage that we consume, nor any source of water that is made available to the public.

Why do you think that I write these posts every day about the importance of whole foods and healthy Lifestyle ideas? It serves the purpose of informing you about what I have uncovered over the years that impact your lives. This knowledge has merit for countless future generations. People like Dr. Oz and the other groups he mentioned that have been involved with exposing this critical health risk to the public are to be honored and supported, not yelled at or ridiculed! Let’s get ‘real’ and do the responsible thing for our children!

The arsenic that makes its way into the apples from China, Brazil, and Argentina is poisoning the children who drink the apple juice concentrate in many juice brand name products that you find on grocery store shelves in the United States. Dr. Oz independently tested various apple juices and made calls to the companies that have yet to be culpable for their oversight in this matter.

It’s going to be up to you as consumers and parents to make a change in the policies of these companies. Your safest choice is to refuse to buy their products until they make the necessary changes. You’ll have to force them to change, because they will continue to make excuses and dodge the real issues until you do.

Dr. Oz and Poisonous Apple Juice Concentrate Information

There is even more arsenic in the municipal water supply that adds insult to injury, creating the heavy metal soup in the child’s body that destroys red blood cells and normally healthy cells in their young bodies.

You simply cannot afford to trust food products that come from foreign countries. They are not regulated to the same extent as comparable foodstuffs in America. Even when imports are inspected, the testing that is done is less than desirable. It costs too much and it’s the price factor that prevents careful controls to keep toxic substances out of the food chain.

Additionally, you cannot trust large corporations that don’t care how many parts per million of arsenic or other poisonous substances are in their products as long as it meets the guidelines of the FDA for compliance, it doesn’t mean that it is healthy nor safe for ingestion by human beings.

Parents feel duped, consumers feel duped, and now Dr. Oz feels duped, too! We knew what was happening thirty years ago and tried to get these companies to change. But they insisted that it would cost too much.

You are going to get what you pay for…

You are going to have to refuse to buy contaminated food products…

The answer is to buy ‘organic’ from certified growers who you know personally or by reputation. This is your best safety net. The information you need is available from those companies who have done their very best to bring you healthy beverages and foods after being exasperated for decades.

Dr. Oz isn’t saying that arsenic is causing cancer in our kids, but I will say that it is killing the cells in the bodies of the children who ingest contaminated juices or foods that contain heavy metals. Arsenic, lead, cadmium, nickel, mercury, and other heavy metals all do damage to the cells within the human body and there is no natural mechanism for the body to eliminate them once they are present.

Your only choice is to use Liquid Zeolite or Chelation Therapy to detoxify from these heavy metals to stop them from killing the cells. While there are some foods and herbs like cilantro that naturally chelate these elements, they cannot be eaten in sufficient quantities to do the job.

Then you must build your Blood with herbs, greens, sea vegetables, whole grains, vegetables, and other plants in a whole foods diet regimen to replace the cells that have been destroyed and lost from exposure to heavy metals in juice or foods.

Gerber, Minute Maid, Mott’s, and other brands are named on the official website of the brave Doctor Oz. Some of these companies attack those who bring out the truth to the public. They don’t want to be accountable nor held responsible for their manufacturing policies. They don’t have an interest in your health, only an interest in you buying their products to line their pockets. Let’s get real about this horrible state of affairs. The corporations don’t give a damn about you or your children’s health.

So…you have to be proactive to the point of researching the companies that you cannot trust and refuse to ever buy any of their products ever again. Furthermore, you must find the organic healthy juices that are made by ethical companies in your local Whole Foods Markets and other natural foods stores and restaurants and Farmer’s Markets. You have to assume total responsibility for the healthy choices you make for your children whether it is juice or any other food they eat or beverage they drink.

The FDA doesn’t do their job well either. You cannot trust government agencies to be effective watchdogs anymore. That wishful thinking is over… That’s why so many millions of us have gone ahead and formed our own companies and systems of distribution for whole foods that are healthy for our families and communities. Didn’t you ever wonder why our organic and natural foods industry is the fastest growing business in food? We had to do this ourselves and now it’s trillions of dollars of healthy business and healthy foods every year that goes beyond the scope of the government and the industry standards. We care enough to do it ourselves!

On today’s episode of TheDoctorsTV, Jillian faced her greatest fear of getting a mammogram. She had been told by her physician to get one for establishing a baseline at age 35, but she has procrastinated for two years. Now the doctors who share the stage with her have convinced her to tackle this fear.

She was hesitant, she had the normal fears about the procedure, but she smoothly moved through her experience with a little anticipation and a lot of confidence that her female physicians would be there to help her every step of the way.

In essence, she allowed herself to be coached through her fear just like she helps others to move beyond their limitations. She was relieved to get the news from the results that her breasts are normal. Now when she turns 40, she will have something to compare future results to with this evaluation.

With as much exercise and movement as Jillian gets every day, her lymphatic system should keep the breast tissue healthy. She does need to be mindful of the sports bras and fitness gear she wears and uses to make sure that she has adequate support without smashing the tissue to keep from bouncing while working out.

Most woman (and men) do not get enough circulation of lymph in their chest area. A good Massage Therapist can provide Lymphatic Drainage and bodywork to support the function of the Lymphatic System and the circulation of the blood to promote health in the tissues and organs internally. Movement matters…

The proper bra and clothing is significant and women need to take their fashion choices into consideration to keep the breasts, nerves, blood vessels, lymphatic system, and musculature in good working order.

Your healthy self-concept and image of your body beautiful is equally important for the health of your entire body, including your breasts. If you do not truly love yourself, your body will develop diseases and weaknesses in areas where you have judged your body. Be good to yourself and your body will be well…

TheDoctorsTV and Jillian’s Fear

Speaking of breasts…Dr. Phil milked his interviews with the Anthonys for all it was worth on today’s segment and at the end of the show when he enticed the audience to watch the second installment of this interview with the parents of Casey who may or may not have killed her own child, their grandchild. Barbara Walters appeared to be envious of Dr. Phil for being given this opportunity to interview the Anthonys, but the discussion opens up for issues that need more answers for closure of this unsolved case of death or murder, lies and deception, parenting and partying, loyalty and truth.

I find it interesting that the first topic that Wendy has to deal with is about sex. Leave it to the doctors to push this subject to yet another level. Now we have to think about ‘Hall Passes’. When is it OK to have sex outside a marriage or a committed relationship? On what terms and in what circumstances? At least Wendy mentioned that each couple must set the boundaries for themselves in a healthy relationship. The rest is simply a lot of scenarios to discuss the doctor’s favorite topic. Dr. Travis doesn’t think that he could participate in a threesome, but how can you knock it, if you haven’t tried it?

Well, I’ve tried it twice and I can say that it didn’t match my expectations. It was less-than-satisfying and less erotic that a couple engaging in intimate love-making. I lost respect for Dr. Lenny Laskow when he initiated an encounter with Rhonda who was a bodyworker at The Center for Total Health. I would not have chosen to share him in bed with her. But they phoned me at the office to invite me over to jump into bed with them one afternoon when they both had no patients or clients to see. I was curious enough to engage the experience, but too conventional to find satisfaction through the interaction.

The second time I experimented with a group sexual encounter was at a Tantric Workshop with Margo Anand. Another doctor, Dr. DuGre at The Center for Total Health in California and several other lovely men and women were my temporary workshop partners. While it was passionate and enthralling for a few minutes, it still was insufficient for me to reach orgasm or find fulfillment in this manner. I prefer coupling and a committed relationship where we can build authentic intimacy for a Lifetime.

Breaking the Rules seemed incidental to this episode. The only rule that pertains to one’s health is to be ‘true to yourself’. If you follow that as your guide, you will never do anything outside your own personal boundaries of appropriate and healthy Lifestyle choices and decisions.

They preempted this premiere episode yesterday for the US Open Finals, but today the doctors welcomed Wendy and Jillian to join the panel.

Jillian was emotionally committed to helping release the guilt, blame, and sadness of the mom whose child was diagnosed with a genetic disease. The interlude with her husband, the mother, and Dr. Oz was intense. Clearly, the mother felt responsible for passing on the genes to her son which resulted in this rare disease and a lot of suffering.

TheDoctorsTV: Premiers Episode Welcomes Wendy and Jillian

The strange thing was that the mother had a feeling after watching a previous episode of the show that her son suffered from that disease, even though her doctors had not arrived at that diagnosis until she persisted in finding a name to what her son was going through. At least she finally could put a name to what was troubling her son as he lost his faculties.

The mother from the previous show consoled her, too. She explained that they were using an experimental drug for research which showed promise for their child. I do hope that the family does not give up. There is some relevance to knowing one’s genetic history to determine the risk to future children when considering starting a family.

Wendy joined the panel to contribute to the Body/Mind Connection. This will provide the panel of experts with a greater reach into the mysteries of disease and healing. Let’s hope that she can contribute something useful to the audience from her perspective.

Dr Drew still got his cosmetic surgery in with a segment on filling out the cheeks with a calcium product for added volume which looked like it was more painful for Jillian to watch the procedure being done than it was for the woman undergoing the injection by needle! Jillian could barely watch without wincing… It is good to see that she is a little sensitive.

Did you notice that Dr. Lisa changed her hairstyle? She walked women through a few methods for alleviating painful periods, but she needs to learn more about massage, Essential Oils, herbal formulations, and nutritional supplements that are more effective. And then there was the really BIG News: Dr. Travis and Dr. Jim are both engaged to their significant others! Hawaii must have enchanted them…

OK…my greatest concern for Jillian joining the panel was that her vicious personality which badgers people and borders on emotional abuse might be injurious to the show. Today her compassion presented a different side of her personality and I do wish that we see more of that instead! That is healing, soothing, and remarkable!

Finally…a physician who can cook and know the value of healthy food for the prevention of ovarian cancer.

Dr. Oz invited this physician to demonstrate his fish dish and the ingredients that have been researched to reduce the incidence of ovarian cancer in women.

The sea bass was steamed for a few minutes while a sauce was made with tomato, olives, garlic, onions, cloves, capers, black pepper, olive oil, turmeric, sea salt, and lemon juice. A salad with endive and olive oil complimented the fish. It was a reasonably healthy meal.

You can also prepare sea vegetables, miso soup, fermented vegetables, citrus fruits, whole grains, organic beans, legumes, and other spices like oregano, thyme, and rosemary in other dishes to also provide some modicum of preventive support. There are many foods which strengthen the body and keep it from developing cancer.

This doctor figured out that food is the best medicine when many of his patients kept asking him what they could eat that would help make a difference in the outcome of the diagnosis for cancer. He realized that food plays a vital role in health and prevention.

Doctor Oz and Ovarian Cancer Information

Red onions, endive, and sea bass were sited as the key foods by the guest doctor and Dr. Oz seemed pleased to hear this information. He can learn to cook, too. That bamboo steamer is one valuable kitchen item for steaming fish, vegetables, and other foods.

It was important for people to remember that the endive needs to be eaten raw in order to provide the greatest degree of preventive power. It is often used in salads and dishes that include Greens. You can fill the endive with chicken salad, egg salad, tofu salad, vegetables, whole grain blends, and many other food groupings to be used like a taco or tortilla which replaces the bread with the Greens.

Ovarian Cancer was discussed as the silent killer, but there are symptoms that have gone relatively unnoticed for decades by medical doctors until recently. Many women are more aware that something is happening in their bodies than the doctors who are supposed to find the problems. It was useful to hear the experts remind the women that they are the ones who control the examination of their bodies to find answers to their queries about symptoms and sensations. Don’t ever give your power away to a doctor…

The women whose doctor told her to quit listening to doctors on TV and to stop using the Internet to learn more about health and medical issues needs to have his ‘head’ examined! How dare he! What an ignorant man. He needs to go back to medical school for further training. If I were her, I would find a different physician and no longer trust a single word from that fool. His arrogance could have cost her her life…

It was a surprise to me to hear Dr. Oz say that the youngest patient that was diagnosed to his knowledge with ovarian cancer was only 11 years old. That’s a shocker… There had to be extenuating circumstances in that case. I had a friend who lost her life to ovarian cancer and she had given up when the medical establishment told her that her case was inoperable and terminal. I wish that she had allowed holistic professionals to save her life, but alas she chose to accept the gynecologist’s diagnosis instead.

Eat well, get holistic health care, and live long…

The Tea Party Debate with the Republican candidates running for President was revealing and Governor Rick Perry is not ‘fit’ to serve as President of a country that reveres Freedom.

No one should vote nor support Rick Perry from this day forward and he should withdraw from the race before he embarrasses himself any further or draws the ire of parents and health care providers with his stance on mandatory vaccinations of adolescent girls for HPV.

Perry Facing New Criticism article

I was glad to hear Michele Bachmann tell Rick Perry that it was “just wrong”. She could have gone as far as calling it ‘treasonous’ to pass a legal mandate that violates our most precious precepts in this country. When a politician tries to tell any parent that they will be forced to inject a foreign substance like a vaccine into their child’s bodies, they need to take notice and get that idiot out of any leadership position. He has no place in politics…

Not only is he arrogantly trying to force twelve year old girls to take a vaccine when they are not sexually-active nor are they infected with the virus, he is owned by the pharmaceutical giants that contribute to his campaign. What an idiot! As a parent and health care provider, I would publicly like to state that he is infringing on the rights of citizens to freely choose whether or NOT to vaccinate anyone for anything.

Personally, I oppose all vaccinations. I have evaluated far too many individuals of all ages and found that vaccines are not healthy nor necessary for human beings. In fact, in more instances than I can count, I have found that it is necessary to use homeopathics to eradicate the frequency information of vaccines in order to Balance the Immune System, the Nervous System, and the Endocrine System.

I did not vaccinate my children and no one from any party will ever tell me what to do to my body. They have the freedom to do whatever they want to their own body, but I am the only one who decides what I do to my body. Period!

Perry is so ignorant and uninformed that he believes that he is forcing vaccines upon children for the sake of their health. If he would do his own real research, he would learn that vaccines are not safe, but they present many health risks to children and adults. There are better ways to address the HPV and its treatment. Down with vaccines and the companies that manufacture them…

Does Perry really need Merck’s $30,000 for his political campaign? Apparently, he is willing to get into bed with them and become infected with their product preferences for applications to different target markets… He is one ‘sick’ man, especially when you take into consideration his views about the sexuality and behavior of adolescent girls. Do we have another ‘Weiner’ in our midst? His view on human sexuality is warped, corrupted, and out-of-touch with the rest of the country!

Has Perry been vaccinated with Gardasil?

No politician, no party, no government, not anyone should have the power or authority to force another human being to inject any substance into their bodies… In the Land of the Free and the home of ‘Lawful Conduct’, that is a given that should never be lost in rhetoric! That executive order in Texas should be revoked.

Furthermore, Romney pointed out that Social Security can be fixed as can any government program during the debate. Perry has some crazy positions that just don’t work for anyone being considered as a potential Leader of the FREE WORLD. What’s free about having to ‘opt-out’ and what’s the deal if you had to find alternatives to social programs that you paid into, but there’s no money left when the time comes for you to draw from it?

At any rate, Rick Perry should pack up his political luggage and leave the race. He just disqualified himself!

Dr. Oz begins his brand new season with the first episode today. Let’s discuss how our examination of Dr. Oz reveals what he knows about the topics he shares with his audience.

Doctor Oz: The New 2011 Season

Doctor Oz is back and in full swing, bringing his audience information about medicine, health, and subjects that are pertinent to our cultural interests which physicians would like to think they understand. Doctors even think they can dance…

He starts the season with a discussion about Belly Fat and Superfoods. This is what he believes you are interested in this year. Given that obesity and weight management are constantly in the News, it seems that this topic is timely and significant.

The Target of the Day: Women Over 40 with Belly Fat and Low Self-Esteem

Are you the type to tone your belly with exercise? Not many are willing to do the daily routine that it takes to trim down the waist and shape the belly by reducing the belly fat that surrounds this tissue and the vital organs.

Dr. Oz thinks that you should ‘trick’ your body by varying your exercise routine. Well, that’s one way to keep it interesting; but if you return to the ‘tried and true’ methods for tonifying the body, you can do a comprehensive Yoga workout which will never need to trick the body. When you respect your body, it will respond beautifully.

What is more, some Tai Chi will support the bio-energetic needs for your body to melt away the body’s belly fat without breaking a sweat or spending countless hours in the gym. You can do your Tai Chi in the morning in the comfort of your home or at the office or even in the local Park outside when you are getting a little sunshine to make magic with Vitamin D.

Can you resist the temptation to nibble or inhale processed foods that are full of refined sugar and commercial salt, butter, artificial ingredients, flour, and other synthetic substances that impair your health and contribute to belly fat and degenerative diseases?

If you are genuinely dedicated to a healthy Lifestyle, then you will find the self-control to manage your behavior, make intelligent choices and food selections, and eat only organic whole foods sparing no expense when it comes to ensuring your health and well-being.

Dr. Oz thinks that ‘eating in reverse’ or eating a bigger meal for breakfast will do the ‘trick’. It is fine to eat a hearty meal in the morning, especially if you put out a lot of energy throughout the day, but making that noodle dish will not be the only ‘trick’ of the doctor’s trade that you will require to do the ‘trick’ in the morning.

Whole Grains, instead of noodles are ideal. Just remember not to combine them with acidic fruit. Berries, bananas, nuts, and either a bean or legume will compliment the whole grains. It’s important to vary what you eat in the morning, so it doesn’t become monotonous or boring. Pulse, granola, eggs, and even just plain organic fresh fruit alone will serve you well in the morning.

Dr. Oz thinks that you need five servings of fiber during the day to reduce your belly fat, but he only gave you a couple of pertinent suggestions. If you don’t like to drink TONS of water with psyllium, then don’t use it. If you are smart, then you won’t rely upon Metamucil either… But the healthy snack bar, a piece of fresh fruit, and other high-fiber foods are great ideas for nibbling on during the course of the day.

Once again, organic nuts and seeds are perfect whole foods that supply fiber and nutrients while tasting great. Root vegetables, dried fruit, whole grains, beans, and foods that are made fresh with these ingredients will suffice to provide you with the fiber your body needs to make digestion and fatty metabolism work properly.

It takes more than the supplementation of a couple of ‘superfoods’ for awhile. It takes the evaluation of every morsel of food and every ounce of liquid that passes your lips and enters your body! It all matters…

Now it is true that miso and sauerkraut are superb, we would not categorize them as ‘superfoods’ by definition. I have not tested the golden berries on enough people to comment intelligently or accurately, so you’ll have to seek out other expertise about this Brazilian vegetable.

The miso paste that Dr. Oz had the woman taste is blended with pure water and other healthy ingredients to make a good soup. What most of you get when you order Miso Soup at restaurants is the watered-down skimpy version. The broth is complimented with scallions, ginger root, garlic, tamari, onion, root vegetables, shi-itake mushrooms, sea vegetables, and other ingredients to make it rich in flavor and filled with nutrients. There are four basic types of Miso. We prefer the barley to the wheat miso paste.

Sauerkraut and other fermented vegetables like Kim Chi, beets, carrots, and others can be used in delicious side dishes, instead of a turkey sandwich as Dr. Oz told you. In Macrobiotics, we always have a pickled item with just a couple of tablespoons to compliment the rest of the meal. Pickled daikon and sauerkraut are among my favorites, but the fermented foods at VitalChoice and another of our affiliate business partners are also excellent choices for your dining room table. We usually enjoy them twice a day with lunch and dinner.

Has Dr. Oz never heard of a Reuben Sandwich? He made it sound like putting sauerkraut on a turkey sandwich was unique and new… Not so. The Reuben has sauerkraut, corned beef, swiss cheese, and mayo on toasted rye. It’s very traditional in our American restaurants.

Now let’s spend a little time with the foods that Dr. Oz rediscovered while he traveled during the summer. His roots in Turkey reminded him how much he loves ‘purslane’ with yogurt and garlic. His trip to Australia showed him how the locals use macadamia nut oil for the scalp, but it also works on every cell in the body internally as well as external applications. You can also find macadamia nuts in Hawaii, but Dr. Oz found Noni Juice. What’s new about that? It’s old, so old… In TCM, we rarely if ever take Noni (morinda) alone, but use it in combination with other herbs, fruits, and roots to bring balance.

Did you see the sour face that Dr. Oz made when he sampled the Noni Juice? Right, that’s not the best way to drink it and you won’t drink it very many times before giving it up when it tastes so bad. There are good juice blends that contain Noni and other healing foods that taste good which will inspire you to drink them daily without any grimace!

I wonder why Dr. Oz didn’t find a new-found respect for the other tropical fruit while he was in Hawaii. Guava, mango, pineapple, papaya, banana, and some of the more exotic fruits are fantastic. There’s a great juice blend known as Morning Blend at the local Whole Foods Markets that you will like, but it is best to eat your tropical fruit fresh and whole. Even the coconut is wonderful when you crack one open, drink the water, and use the meat in any number of ways.

All in all, this first episode was OK. We can only hope that Dr. Oz will get better consultants (like us) for whole foods in the future as well as learning more about what constitutes ‘superfoods’.

When we examine the doctor, we find that his attitude is still positive, he is still partly-informed about his topics, and he still has a lot to learn as he shares what he already knows with his smiling, if not disgusted audience. Those women were all disgusted with their bellies, instead of loving their bodies while they learn how to change them with a healthy Lifestyle. Dr. Oz failed to address their attitudes that impact the body more than they realize… Furthermore, if we really wanted to see a vaginal examination for fibroids on a television show, we would tune into TheDoctorsTV. Please Dr. Oz, don’t ruin your ratings by going there… It’s a Dr. Phil and family stunt that is done in poor taste on TV!

CNN featured a segment with Dr. Sanjay Gupta about the health challenges faced by First Responders exposed to the Dust form the World Trade Center Terrorist Attacks on 9/11 ten years ago.

CNN and Dr. Sanjay Gupta

Dr. Gupta discussed Marty’s medical care following lung problems suffered as a result of breathing in the Dust at Ground Zero. He’s lucky to be alive, even after a lung transplant and forty pills of medication every day to keep him going. It’s fairly obvious to his doctors and to his family that his health problems stem from being in the Dust during the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

Marty is still experiencing problems and is in need of yet another lung transplant. His determination to survive in spite of his failing body is admirable, but raises some important points that need to be addressed and resolved for him and others who are also affected by the Dust.

The First Responders are the easiest group to study. They often had medical exams prior to the terrorist attack and thus there is a base from which to measure their health status and changes in blood biochemistry. There were some authorities who proclaimed that the Dust was not a health risk at the time, but now that premise doesn’t hold any water.

Although it is true that some of those First Responders are having more difficulty than others, some are more sick than others, and some have died from the damage done to their bodies in less than ten years’ time. This can complicate Public Health policies and health benefits and medical care for those still living. It’s our national responsibility to provide health care for those who risked their own lives to save so many others!

The anomalies show up in X-Rays and Blood tests. There are more than 300 distinct chemicals and compounds that have been analyzed in the Dust from Ground Zero. It is comprised of everything from jet fuel to plastic fragments to heavy metals and more known carcinogens and toxic substances. Health problems like cancer and rare diseases have been diagnosed in First Responders who showed no clinical symptoms before 9/11.

While most traditional methods of treatment are not completely successful, at least our First Responders are receiving medical care to alleviate their pain, basic complaints, and general care and rehabilitation. This Dust is a new ‘animal’ for doctors and hospitals. The Blood appears to carry the deadly toxins from the Dust to every organ and system, making for a variety in the presentations of disease and symptoms in each individual. It’s nasty business and many people don’t qualify for the level of care they need.

The families of those who are affected with health challenges from the Dust have to face lengthy periods of treatment and care for their loved ones. Some children have to be prepared for the eventual death of their fathers. Others have to grow up knowing that their parent is a hero, although they are so weak they cannot even play with their children. The lingering problems are agonizing and require thoughtful consideration for the service these First Responders provided for their fellow human beings struggling to be rescued and saved during the events on that day and in the aftermath of the attacks.

Out of this morass of pain and suffering will come solutions for future precautions like simple masks, medical procedures, and treatment protocols; but that is no solace to those who have exhibited some horrific examples of what this treacherous Dust can do to the human body. Many physicians are at a total loss for what to do to treat these people.

I would have to evaluate each of them with my EAV Equipment individually and devise a specific program unique to their personal needs and requirements. But a detoxification program coupled with a series of regenerative programs would be obvious to me as being two of the recommendations for recovery at first glance… This has never happened before to this degree of difficulty for the medical establishment. There is no real benchmark for comparison.

For the health of the human body, 9/11 was a monumental experiment that continues to this day. Signs of diseases that would take thirty years to manifest appear within just a few years and don’t always respond to traditional treatment. It’s both frustrating, yet hopeful that new knowledge will come from this for everyone’s benefit. It’s a stiff price to pay for those brave and heroic First Responders who have literally risked their lives for their fellow man.

We wish them well on this day of Remembrance!

How do you deal with nuclear radiation from disasters like the Fukushima nuclear reactor in Japan when radiation poisons the food, the water, the animals, the plants, and the soil?

The radiation is three times the estimate given by officials in Japan and that’s no comfort for people living in Japan or those who might come into contact with some food or water or meat that is irradiated and deadly.

Sea Radiation from Fukushima article

Now the fish, seaweed, and other seafood has been found to be contaminated and poisonous by all standards and measures. It’s a tragedy and an outrage in so many ways… It’s put an immediate end to exports and home consumption of these contaminated foods.

The sea water could be contaminated for millions of years. We have no way of being assured of the ‘half life’ of any of these radioactive elements that are in the ocean. No one in their right mind would tell you that it’s not an important health issue for the entire world, not just the Japanese.

First of all, you can detoxify using Liquid Zeolite. One cannot even wager a guess how long it may take to ensure that your body removes any trace of radioactive material this way. You may choose to take this supplement for the rest of your healthy Life…

Then again…all the future foods you consume should be organic, locally sourced from sustainable growers, and you should learn to garden using heirloom and non-hybrid seeds.

It’s the only real way you can control all of the factors that enter into consideration in this picture. Then you can be the ‘picture of health’ to the best of your ability!

Build your soil, source your water from deep underground aquifers, and grow all of your own food while trading what you cannot grow yourselves with your local or regional neighbors who practice sustainable agriculture. That’s the ‘picture of health’ that virtually guarantees your personal well-being.

When you rely upon or trust official agencies or governments with vested interests or hidden agendas who inherently possess the capacity for deceit, disregard for human health, and fear of reputation being tarnished by the truth; then you risk your own health. That is unacceptable by any standards!

It’s ironic that the same seaweeds that help your body deal with radiation from cancer therapy would itself become radioactive and dangerous…

The seaweeds that have been on store shelves before the disaster in March, the sea vegetables grown in pristine waters in other regions of the world, and seafood that is sustainably-harvested from healthy waters are good sources of foods for you right now. The future holds no promises for food safety. Your security is your own plan for Preparedness and food procurement through those methods described earlier in your local communities and in your own garden, farm, or ranch.

I was duly impressed with today’s episode which featured many whole foods to deal with more than a dozen health or medical problems to fix or change them without surgery or drugs.

Amazing…

The doctors have come a long way! They actually seemed to be having fun on today’s show with several facial masks on Dr. Jim and some friendly poking at Dr. Drew and Dr. Travis when sex with legs up was ‘up’ for discussion…

You would have to be either an acrobat or an expert in the Kama Sutra to pull this off! But if swinging from chandoliers while hanging upside down is your ‘thing’, then Dr. Jim has a few ideas for you. Dr. Travis thought about it for a few minutes before commenting on the sexually-charged image of a woman’s legs up in the air. Dr. Lisa was the practical one stating that orgasms can be better in this position. We know what the doctors are thinking about, but… What are those doctors drinking in the morning?

We do know that Dr. Jim went to the grocery store and bought some ‘real’ maple syrup. He also likes seaweed. I was enchanted with the physicians as they sampled the sea vegetables and nibbled on nori. It’s not new, except to the doctors. This is certainly a promising direction for them to be moving in…to bring their audience real food for healing and staying well!

The DoctorsTV Show Synopsis and Information About This Episode

The doctors talked about vinegar, baking soda, honey, cinnamon, and booze that can be used as ‘fixes’ for dozens of health issues. You can find all their specific ideas using the link to their website above this paragraph.

I have one additional comment about honey. Dr. Jim suggested that honey might be risky for young ones, but he failed to describe why he thinks that may be the case. It’s not the honey, it’s the botulinum that can be present in honey. If you keep your own bees or get your honey from someone who knows their craft, then you won’t generally have to worry about finding botulinum in that source of honey. You could more easily find it in your doctor’s office…

There is something that needs to be clarified and corrected before I finish my review for the day. The doctors used some of their old taped material about papaya, tea tree oil, and other foods from past episodes. The correction is that you should NOT use steam or water when using Tea Tree Oil or Melaleuka Essential Oil. Authentic Essential Oils and water do not mix… If you need to dilute the Essential Oil, then use a carrier oil composed of almond oil or other base oils.

The doctors need a crash course on Essential Oils and their applications!

You should seek out a qualified and trained Aromatherapist to guide you when you use Essential Oils.

Papaya and pineapple are perfect whole foods to eat when they are fresh AND ORGANIC. The enzymes and nutrients found in the fresh fruit do aid in digestion. Plus…they are delicious as long as they are ripe! Those bananas that Dr. Lisa distributed were not quite ripe yet. Fruit gets sweeter naturally when it’s truly ripe. That’s the perfect time to eat it. It’s advisable to eat your fresh fruit alone or with nuts.

Speaking of nuts, it’s better to eat your walnuts than to waste them on furniture. There’s furniture products for those scratches and care of wood. Eat your nuts! Drink your tea! Those used tea bags are soothing for your eyes… But get the goodness of tea from them before you apply them to your eyes. The doctors are doing a much better job of bringing you ‘fixes’ with food, instead of dangerous drugs or surgical procedures. This is a trend that I hope to see continued…
