It certainly worked for me! After spending the first 40 years of life going to countless doctors, taking their prescribed drugs, and submitting to their advocated surgeries, I was sicker than ever and my body was failing fast. I suffered with over 100 symptoms and was diagnosed with roughly 35 incurable diseases—including heart disease and neurological disorder. I was also overweight.
It wasn’t until I threw up my hands in disgust and walked away from the medical dominion while turning to a chiropractor/homeopath for help, that my body and health began to improve by leaps and bounds. Within a few short months every diagnosed “incurable” disease and 60 pounds simply vanished. That was back in 1996, and I’ve been healthy ever since.
The health and obesity epidemics in America are growing at an alarming rate. What family has not been touched by the ravages of obesity or disease? Perhaps the question more people should be asking themselves is, “Are medical doctors and pharmaceutical drugs helping to alleviate the health and obesity crises in America?” The obvious answer here is a resounding, “NO!”
According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, National Institutes of Health, “chiropractic is a health care profession that focuses on the relationship between the body’s structure—mainly the spine—and its functioning.” Chiropractors use a variety of treatment options with their primary goal being to correct alignment problems, alleviate pain, improve body function, and support the body’s natural ability to heal itself.
For decades, chiropractors have been faced with heavy opposition from so-called organized medicine. But if organized medicine is so ordered, regulated, and well run, why are disease and obesity at pandemic levels? A longstanding feud between medical doctors and chiropractors continued for decades. Perhaps doctors are afraid that if disease is controlled through natural means, their professions would be at stake? Just a thought.
In a 1987 landmark case, Wilk vs AMA, the court found that “the AMA had engaged in unreasonable restraint of trade and conspiracy.” Thus ended the “AMA’s de facto boycott of chiropractic.”
According to a 2007 National Health Interview Survey, people commonly seek chiropractic care for low-back pain, musculoskeletal pain, headaches, and extremity problems. Of the survey respondents, 74% had used chiropractic and 66% reported “great benefit” from their treatments.
As to the safety of chiropractic treatment, a 2007 study of 19,722 chiropractic patients in the UK concluded that the risk of an adverse event after an adjustment was “low to very low.” A 2009 study in Ontario, Canada, drawing from 9 years of records which analyzed 818 cases of vertebrobasilar artery stroke (VBA), found that there was “no evidence that visiting a chiropractor put people at greater risk than visiting a primary care physician.”
But I’m here to ask—How many men, women, and children have died in the hands of a medical doctor? How many men, women, and children have died as a result of prescribed drugs? And how many men, women, and children died as the result of some medical surgery? Too many to count.
In an interesting article titled Death by Medicine, we see where regulatory agencies try to squash all natural methods of healing, yet ignore the fact that government-sanctioned medicine poses a greater risk.
Twenty years ago, a chiropractor prescribed regular chiropractic adjustments along with a host of natural supplements. I switched to a chemical-free lifestyle and a whole-food diet. Within 11 months, my body totally healed itself! By avoiding medical doctors and prescription drugs and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, I have remained healthy and happy ever since. Does chiropractic work? You bet!
If you’d like to learn more, pick up a copy of my book which describes how your body communicates with symptoms by giving warnings of toxic exposure. WARNINGS of Disease: Your Body Uses Symptoms to Communicate
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 75% of our health care dollars goes to treating chronic diseases. The CDC goes on to say that these persistent conditions are the leading causes of death and disability in our nation. But more importantly, these deaths and lifelong disabilities “could have been prevented.”
The CDC states that the most common chronic diseases include arthritis, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. These chronic conditions are the most costly, and yet preventable diseases of all healthcare problems in the U.S. today.
Chronic means to persist or recur for a long period of time. However, chronic also means “having a particular bad habit.” It is this definition that needs further consideration.
In the medical sense, being diagnosed with a chronic disease labels the sufferer as having an incurable illness. In this case, the irremediable opinion of a medical practitioner determines that the patient’s affliction is impossible to cure or put right. Drugs and surgery are advocated as remedial treatment, while the afflicted is left to contend with their chronic disease for the rest of their life.
The four common causes of chronic disease, defined as “modifiable health risk behaviors” by the CDC, include poor nutrition, lack of physical activity, tobacco use, and excessive alcohol consumption.
This leads us right back to the second definition of chronic—having a particular bad habit. In other words, if we were to eliminate a particular bad habit, then the chronic condition associated with that bad habit will no longer be evident.
Most Americans today understand that excessive alcohol consumption and smoking cigarettes causes cancer and other debilitating diseases. But how many people actually realize that their chronic diseases are also caused by eating junk food and being lazy?
Alcoholics and smokers are encouraged to quit their bad habits in order to regain good health. Why is it that people who eat junk food and fail to exercise are not encouraged to do the same?
That’s exactly what I did back in 1996! I quit eating junk food, I quit drinking artificially flavored drinks, and I quit taking all prescription drugs. I also eliminated the use of toxic chemicals on my body, and I quit using dangerous chemicals in our home. Once I began avoiding all toxic chemicals—in foods, personal hygiene products, and cleaning products—my body healed itself of over 100 symptoms and 35 chronic diseases. Even diagnosed heart disease simply went away.
I’m living proof that if we change “a particular bad habit that recurs over time,” our body no longer needs to suffer with chronic dis-ease. The “particular bad habit” that I removed from my lifestyle was the exposure to toxic chemicals. I eat whole, living foods that are as organic as possible. I drink pure water. I use products that are as close to nature as I can find. And I get exercise. As a result, all chronic disease disappeared and I’ve been healthy ever since.
In my book, Warnings of Disease: Your Body Uses Symptoms to Communicate, I describe what disease is, and how it can be eliminated. I also detail what I did to rid myself of disease. I hope you’ll pick up a copy today. There is no need to suffer any longer. There is hope.
Why do doctors just treat symptoms? Why don’t doctors CURE disease?
These are two questions that I had to ponder during my quest to heal myself of over 35 diagnosed diseases and 100 symptoms after doctors did NOTHING to CURE my disease. I asked doctors over and over again what was causing my diseases, but no doctor could give me a straight-shooting answer. All I heard was a definition of my problem, which came in the form of a diagnosis, and then I was told that some body part, age, or genetics was to blame for the action. But the more I thought about it, the more I realized that blaming some body part for failure was of NO consequence—Why did the body part fail? THAT is the question! After all, when body parts fail, they are a direct part of us. That means that when something goes wrong on the inside of our body and we begin to suffer with disease, we are responsible for our own suffering. When we choose to go against order, we create disorder.
Pathogenesis is the manner in which a disease originates. The human body is a ordered system. Doctors depend on its order to practice medicine. Without order, surgery would not be effective. The human body operates in an ordered fashion. All of the systems within the body, such as the circulatory, endocrine, and immune systems, operate in an orderly process. Because of this, there must be a sequential operation that causes disease to manifest. But medical science is all about “treating” the symptom, not curing the disease.
I know some will take offense at this and immediately say that their doctor or some drug cured their disease. But what about the hundreds of millions who suffer with heart disease, diabetes, cancer, asthma, insomnia, depression, etc.? No doctor is curing their disease! What about the millions of people who suffer through debilitating cancer treatments, chemo and radiation, only to find themselves stricken with cancer once again? And what about all those who died as a direct result of receiving toxic cancer treatments? How is this considered a cure? It’s not…
I suffered with over 35 diseases and NONE of them were cured—not one—until I found the TRUE CAUSE, or starting point, of my disease, eliminated it, and then true healing began. All doctors wanted to do was to treat my symptoms with drugs, which were prescribed to cover-up the truth, or they wanted to perform surgery when the drugs didn’t work. After all, that’s what doctors are trained to do. To see a partial list of the many diseases that I suffered, click here. Eventually, doctors wanted to pin yet another diagnosis to my chest—multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s, and Lou Gehrig’s disease were kicked around.
For disease to originate, something is being done to the body that causes the disorder to begin. Disorder does not arrive out of nothingness—it can’t. For disorder to occur, order must have been present at some point in time. You can read more about this in my new book, WARNINGS of Disease: Your Body Uses Symptoms to Communicate.
Did you know that your body communicates with symptoms? Each and every symptom that you suffer is a message from your body. Its trying to tell you something! Every time you do something wrong, in other words when you go against your ordered design, your body immediately goes into action trying to undo what has been done. It tries to right the wrong. And when initial symptoms are ignored or covered up with drugs, the next order of business is for the body to fall into a state of disease. Millions of Americans are suffering with disease because they are ignoring themselves!
Modern medicine goes about blaming body parts for failing, but what it fails to disclose is that when body parts fail—we are responsible. Some inappropriate thing done to the body results in disorder.
What are some of the disorder-causing actions that result in disease? TOXINS—toxins cause disease. When toxins are put into the body, they cause disorder. Why? TOXINS are POISON. They cause injury or death. Poison kills by rapid action even in small quantities. But here’s something to know—toxins don’t always cause immediate death to the whole body, the person. Poison may cause death to the cell. From a cellular perspective, every organ in our body consists of cells. That means that the death or injury, which occurs from consuming TOXINS, begins at the cell level and works its way up.
So, how is the body exposed to deadly toxins? Junk food, drugs, and everyday products are filled with them! Every time you eat junk food and drink artificially-flavored beverages, they are filled with toxic chemicals. Every time you take drugs, they are filled with toxic synthetic chemicals. Every time you use everyday household cleaning products and personal hygiene products, they are filled with poisonous chemicals. Is it any wonder that so many people are so sick and diseased?
I cured myself, without doctors, of over 35 diagnosed diseases and 100 symptoms. EVERY symptom and disease went away after I changed my lifestyle and eating habits. I hope you will read my new book.
Inflammation is the key to understanding disease. Inflammation is an attention-getter! Inflammation is the body’s defense mechanism to ward off poison. Your body communicates that there is a problem with inflammation.
The human body responds to any toxic substance by producing inflammation. Many toxins are found in the processed foods that you eat and the every-day products that you use. After ingesting poison, the body uses five fundamental methods called the Five Cardinal Signs of Inflammation to get your attention—redness, heat, swelling, pain, and loss of function. These can be loosely defined as:
- REDNESS = STOP what you’re doing!
- HEAT = If you don’t STOP, you will get burned!
- SWELLING = Look, I’m fattening up to get your attention!
- PAIN = Maybe a little pain will get you to notice!
- LOSS OF FUNCTION = OK, if you can’t use it, maybe this will work…
The problem is—most people ignore the signs. Why? Man has created a crafty way to cover up the truth. Man’s answer to pain comes in the form of a tiny pill. Man’s antidote to disease is to drug himself to no avail. Keep in mind that an antidote is a medicine given to counteract a toxin, a poison. This means that some toxin is responsible for the symptom that caused the disease.
When pills don’t work, doctors get busy performing surgery to either take out what is bad or to replace what is faulty with a new body part. That is what doctors are trained to do, isn’t it? To make matters worse, doctors often label your dysfunction as a psychological problem when conventional treatments don’t work. This opens up the floodgates to all sorts of psychotherapeutic medications and behavioral therapies. But do drugs and surgery really circumvent the problem? Rampant ill health and obesity epidemics say otherwise. America’s health crisis proves that Man’s ways are not working.
You’ve tried to lose weight…
It’s hard, right? And even if you do, you end up gaining back every single pound that you lost—PLUS! Why is this?
You’re sick, tired and depressed… You’re filled with disease… Your child has been labeled with a learning disability or some other serious psychological condition…
You’ve been to the doctor—over and over again. You’re taking all the latest designer drugs. Medical tests often return “inconclusive” or “within normal limits.” Or maybe you’ve been diagnosed. BUT, you’re still taking drugs and you’re still sick, tired and depressed. Your body is in pain. You’re still overweight. Dysfunction has overtaken your life. Your child is suffering. All of those drugs and surgeries have not abated the problem one little bit.
Or worse, perhaps your body has succumbed and is now filled with disease. Asthma, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, insomnia, obesity, learning disabilities, and untold others—they’re all out of control. Perhaps you’ve been diagnosed with a few diseases, but has the diagnosis done anything to heal your body of the disorder?
- 65% of all Americans are overweight—Why?
- 24 million people in the U.S. have diabetes—Why?
- 38.4 million people have asthma—Why?
- Heart disease is the leading cause of death in America—Why?
- One out of every 3 persons develops at least one type of cancer—Why?
The fact is—the answer is being overlooked. For decades, science has been side-stepping pathogenesis—the true starting point of disease. During my search for good health and healing, I discovered that if you remove the source of a disorder, the body has the remarkable ability to heal. If you would like to experience good health and healing in your own life, buy a copy of my new book WARNINGS of Disease now.
New Year’s resolutions have come and gone. The time to get ripped and look good in that new swimsuit for summer has faded away. Now, people are just hoping to lose some weight before the holidays rapidly approach and they pack on the pounds all over again. Holiday eating is the standard excuse for weight gain. Obesity rates have now surpassed the 65% mark. It’s being reported that obesity may rise to a staggering 85% in less than ten years time.
Churches are filled with prayer requests for the sick and dying. Heart disease is the Number One Killer in America. One in every three families is touched by the ravages of cancer. Some studies report that the average patient now takes eleven medications. Drug use is out of control, so is disease and obesity.
But does anyone ever stop to ask – WHY?
After suffering with over 100 symptoms and 35 diagnosed diseases, and a proffered diagnosis of either multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s, or Lou Gehrig’s disease, that’s exactly what I did. I asked – WHY? Why was I sick and dying? Why was I overweight? However, doctors were unable to answer my questions. This got me to thinking – did anyone really know the answers?
So I set out to find the answers for myself. And did I ever find them! By changing my diet and lifestyle habits, I was cured of all disease and lost over sixty pounds without even trying. I have been perfectly healthy for the past fifteen years and take no drugs.
In 2009, I took a hiatus from my work as a Forensic Document Examiner and Handwriting Expert to complete the manuscript and bring this book to print. The book includes my personal story of healing along with fifteen years of scientific research. What I found was that you don’t have to be filled with disease and you definitely don’t have to be fat. Each person can choose to be healthy or not.
My personal mission for writing WARNINGS of Disease is to help people realize that artificial food additives and toxic chemicals, including those found in drugs and everyday products, are responsible for causing sickness and disease, with obesity being the end-product of consumption.
Back in 1996, doctors suspected that I had either multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s, or Lou Gehrig’s disease (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-ALS). I was sick beyond belief and lived in constant pain. I couldn’t sleep at night, had frequent panic attacks, and suffered with severe heart and neurological problems. And those are just a few of the many symptoms that I had.
Because my symptoms overlapped between MS, Parkinson’s and ALS, one doctor suggested that I be admitted into Shands Teaching Hospital in Gainesville, FL. Perhaps they could get to the bottom of my constant state of dis-ease… But to tell you the truth, I was sick of being sick. I couldn’t take it anymore! My pain and suffering had become unbearable and no drugs or remedial treatment was effective.
But that’s not the point. The point here is that I wanted to know WHY? Why was I sick and diseased? I had already been diagnosed with 35 diseases, wasn’t that enough? Why did doctors want to label me with yet another disease? Why did I have neurological problems and peripheral neuropathy? Why was I so dizzy and losing my balance? There was no way that I could turn my head or eyes quickly to either side because my head would start spinning like a top, I’d get nauseas, and my body would pitch forwards or backwards, or to one side. When I got out of bed in the morning, my body would head off in a different direction than intended, and my feet hurt so bad that I could barely stand the thought of putting them on the ground. I tried every kind of shoe and shoe insert that you can imagine, just so I could relieve some of the foot pain during the day.
Why did I suffer with anxiety attacks? Why did I develop a fear of high places, agoraphobia, and claustrophobia? Why did I have fibromyalgia? Why did my feet, legs, and lower torso lose feeling? Why did my body twitch? Why did my hands, fingers, feet and toes tingle and feel like they were being stuck with pins and needles? And how could they feel numb and heavy at the same time?
Why did it feel like I had bugs crawling under the skin on my legs? Why did my head begin to wobble? Why did I trip and drag a foot when I walked? Why was I losing my ability to grip with my hands? Why was my vision blurry, and why did I get tunnel vision and see flashing halos of lights? Besides suffering with chronic headaches and migraines, why did I develop ocular migraines?
Why did I have to get up five and six times a night to go to the bathroom, even though I really didn’t have to go? Why couldn’t I sleep at night? Even though I was so exhausted, I would go to sleep and wake up zinging within an hour or two and then couldn’t back to sleep for the rest of the night. Why did I feel the need to pace the floors at night? Why would I sit and incessantly rub my legs at night, all the while having to look down at the floor so my head wouldn’t spin? By this point in time, I was suffering with nightly panic attacks.
Why was I in a constant state of brain fog? Why was I having difficulty remembering simple things? It’s like my brain couldn’t process a complete thought. Why had I developed a slurred speech? It was very embarrassing.
Why was I having difficulty swallowing? Whatever I ate, didn’t seem to want to go down. Food would sit like a huge wad in my throat and then I’d begin to panic, thinking that I was going to choke. The simple act of eating caused all sorts of physical pain and symptoms. I had a constant, burning pain in my stomach and on my right side. My liver and kidneys were inflamed. I had chronic digestive and intestinal problems, and I suffered with chronic inflammation and infections. Why?
What caused my heart to go bad — so bad that one doctor suggested a heart valve transplant? I had horrible heart palpitations and arrhythmias. Any exertion would cause shortness of breath and pain in my chest. I was even hospitalized with a suspected heart attack and placed on powerful heart medications.
So these are just some of the 100 symptoms that I suffered. Besides living in constant pain, agony, and perpetual fear, what was most troubling was the fact that doctors couldn’t answer one simple question — WHY? Medical doctors could not provide one single answer to any of the questions that I had. Where’s the science in this? Doctors were more than happy to diagnose my condition, prescribe drugs (over 2 dozen of them), and perform surgery, but forget about telling me what was causing my problem. Why? The only thing that I could ever figure was that they simply didn’t know, or that they didn’t want to know… Medical doctors passed my disorder off as incurable and sent me home, loaded down with drugs, to live the rest of my life in total despair!
Since I was sick of being sick and no doctor could answer any of my questions regarding my failing health, I decided to find the answers for myself. And did I ever find them!
I started out with the word – SYMPTOM. Why? I had lots of them! A symptom is a physical or mental condition of disease, that is particularly apparent to the patient. A symptom is a sign of the existence of something, most often an undesirable situation.
Symptom originates from the Greek words sumptoma ‘chance, symptom,’ and from sumpiptein ‘happen.’ This basically means that symptoms happen, they come about. But when you look at the definition of happen, you’ll see that for something to happen, it is the effect or result of some action or event. This means that something is responsible for symptoms when they occur. There is a direct cause! Bodily organs and systems cannot just go bad for no reason at all. There is a series of events that must take place in order for them to fail. Why is it that medical science overlooks this fact? Most doctors are not concerned with pathogenesis—the starting point of disease.
Synonyms for SYMPTOM include manifestation and sign. A symptom is a warning, a hint, and a clue. A symptom is also an expression and indication of something, it is evidence and proof. But proof of what?
A symptom is the consequence and product of an event. A symptom is a testimony. A symptom is the result of something else. A SYMPTOM is the effect of an action. In other words, something that I was doing was causing my symptoms! By doing a simple word study, I came to realize that my symptoms were a direct testimony of my actions. They were evidence and proof, formal witness, that their existence was a witness of my deeds. Essentially, I was responsible for my acquired symptoms! This includes those symptoms and conditions that are acquired, obtained (earned) within one’s own lifetime.
After gaining an understanding of how symptoms occur, I had to step back and look deep within. I soon came to realize that whenever I suffered symptoms, my body was giving myself a warning, a hint, a clue…
