Homeopathy Arizona

This Doctor's Battle Against Chronic Obesity

Even though I am a world class Homeopathic Doctor and lecturer, I’ve tried many methods of dieting and never found a facile answer until now with my exposure to the HCG Diet of Dr. A.T.W. Simeon M.D. of Rome Italy.

I have blamed my corpulent status for years on two pieces of fact. One is that I take after my dear late Father who passed away when I was 19 years old in 1965 and he was just 4 days short of his 54th birthday. In fact I’ve credited my homeopathic remedies with keeping me around in a healthful state where I’ve outlived him now close to my 65th year.

The second fact is that at a young age became an affe­cionado of wine and ultimately became the Commander of the Arizona Chapter of the Brotherhood of the Knights of the Vine arranging gourmet wine dinners in the Phoenix Area and for a ten year period from 1980-1990 became the secret spy for the Travel-Holiday Magazines Restaurant award program for the state of Arizona. Even though that position ended in 1990 and I stepped down from the KOV position in 1992 I’ve continued my quest to find that next best gourmet meal. I’ve literally visited many of the best restaurants all over the United States and many places around the world.

I’m not sure that I would trade away the pleasurable Gourmet experiences I’ve had and may someday write about them but the price I’ve paid has to be the 75 plus pounds of extra weight that I’ve put on and until now have been unable to take off based upon my height and age.

In the last 43 days I’ve just lost 31 pounds and added to the ten pounds I’ve lost by regular dieting since January 1st, 2008. I’m now 41 pounds on the way towards losing the 75 pounds I needed to lose. I expect to reach that goal by Thanksgiving 2009 (i.e., I lost ten pounds in 566 days and will lose 65 pounds more in just 110 more days by using the HCG diet).

What is Dr. Simeon’s secret?

What one needs to do is to read Dr. Simeon’s short book of just 56 pages. Its called Pounds & Inches: A New Approach To Obesity, by A.T.W. Simeons, M.D.

In this very educational treatise, Dr. Simeon discusses a review of his research on all of the glands within the body and how different hormones control storage of excess nutrients. It comes down to the fact that there are three kinds of Fats stored in the body and the kind of fat that causes obesity is the Brown fat that is the last nutrient to be digested after the more superficially deposited fats are metabolized when the body short changes itself of caloric intake. The body does not resolve its Obesity status until the Brown Fat is metabolized and under normal circumstances the Brown Fat goes last.

Dr. Simeon figured out through his research that Brown fat can be caused to break down first when the hormone HCG in amounts of 125-150 IUs per day(Human Cho­rionic Gonadotrophin---a normal product of pregnancy) stimulates the Diencephalon (a part of the brain) in com­bination with a 500 calorie daily food intake. More or less IUs of HCG or more than 500 calories of food can have untoward results and not achieve the diets goals.

The 500 calorie diet plus HCG shots can only be given for 40 days at a time requiring a 6 week break of controlled normal dieting before the program can be resumed with another 40 days of HCG shots and strict diet.

I’m writing this article at the beginning of my first Break period after having lost 31 pounds during the first 40 days and will need to maintain that loss with no more than a 2 pound gain until the time when I restart in about 5 weeks with the hope that I can complete Round two in time to enjoy a real Thanksgiving meal with my family.

The HCG is amazing as all hunger disappears even though one is only eating 500 calories of very unenjoyable unsat­isfying but totally filling meals. A typical day starts with a Breakfast of Venti sized coffee flavored with non caloric Stevia (the pink, Blue and Yellow sweetners are forbidden). Lunch is a Grisini Bread stick plus 3.5 ounces of protein (chicken fish or lean organic meat) plus some type of lettuce greens sprinkled with lemon juice. Mid-afternoon one has an apple (Fuji’s are my favorite). Dinner is a peice of Melba Toast plus a fruit like half grapefruit and another 3.5 ounces of protein and cooked greens like spinach. Water, water, water is the rule that I couldn’t follow correctly.

I actually wrote a short diary to my family and close advisers every Saturday and really felt that I was in a self imposed food prison as repayment for years of gluttony. I did not have any of my favorite wine for the whole 43 days of Round One.

I can tell you that I had two very excellent coaches, one is available to you and the other is my wife who acted as my “food warden” preparing my lunches and dinners. The other coach is the excellent Simeon Guidebook written by Sheryl Lee which she sells for $40. You can contact her and buy her book at the following address: support@sherylsgreatday.com or www.sherylsgreatday.com.

In fact, in addition to buying Dr. Simeon’s Treatise, Sheryl’s guidebook is a necessity.

What are the drawbacks to this program?

For me it has been food boredom, constipation (no food, no BMs) and itching (detoxing fat releases toxins).

Of course, the answers have been my Homeopathic Detox Protocols, without which I can’t see how anyone could do this?

Will I do this for my patients?

Not at this time. I’ve got to make it through my pro­gram completely with weight loss permanent, food intake happily tolerable and no untoward health situations that haven’t been anticipated.

Please stay tuned for followup results.

For now I need to go to my Tailor and have all of my clothes altered. I’ve lost about 5 inches in my waist and similar amounts in other parts of my body.

My wife and I also “fit together” better like we did in earlier years.

What is Meridian Stress Analysis?

The Meridian Stress Analysis (MSA) computer system is considered to be an EAV device and is being renamed an MSA device. EAV or electro acupuncture was developed in the 1950’s by Dr. Reinhard Voll in Germany. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in medicine which he did not win but was eventually awarded a similar prize given to him by the Vatican. 

Dr. Voll was a physician who understood traditional acupuncture and where all the acupuncture points were located. He knew how to place needles to add or subtract energy as mentioned above. He postulated that, since the acupuncture system was based on energy flow, it was an electromagnetic force that could be measured with simple electrical meter measuring devices. 

He used and developed a special system of measuring electrical skin resistance with a biofeedback type electrical meter used at the ends of the acupuncture meridians on the fingers and the toes. 

He worked for many years testing patients with known medical diseases and developed the data where recurring observation in the measurements indicated that certain disease states were indicated by the certain specific set of measurements he obtained. 

Scientists in Utah developed a computer program that is able to process the MSA readings to test Meridian Stress and is able to balance that stress with digitized signals of tens of thousands of environmental substances. 

The basic allergy and homeopathic principles of "small amounts of a toxic substance can balance the toxic effect of a large amount of the substance" is ready made for ELECTRODERMAL TESTING. 

When the MSA finds an out-of-balance meridian, the MSA computer can search its memory (with the help of the operator) to find the frequency of the substance that it takes to balance that meridian. Once that substance is ascertained, it becomes the remedy for that patient. 

The MSA has within its memory the electrical frequency of several thousand substances including: 

• Most of the homeopathic remedies
• Grass, weed and tree pollens
• Animal dander’s, dust, birds and fish
• Foods
• Phenolic compounds that make up foods
• Toxic chemicals and pesticides
• Dental materials
• Molds
• Drugs and pharmaceutical products
• Bacteria and virus particles
• Organs in healthy and diseased states
• X-ray and radiation frequencies
• Many other miscellaneous toxins

A full MSA workup can focus on many different subjects for the creation of many different remedies. Once the appropriate remedy is calculated to balance out-of-balance points, the appropriate remedy can be prescribed. 

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration had considered EAV devices to be considered for investigational use only and required its use to be considered research. This is no longer the case with the MSA and MSA. We are coming one step closer to having third party payers reimburse patients for its use. 

In the case of allergy treatment and diagnosis, it is correlated with the RAST blood testing or with traditional skin testing. In the case of homeopathic evaluation, it is correlated with a traditional homeopathic history and case taking procedures.

The Politics of Autism Therapy

A phenomena That Happened Once Before in the 1930’s in the USA (And Led to the Formation of Blue Cross/Blue Shield)

Autism is a horrible disease that is debilitating to very young children and is clearly a disease that has risen to epidemic proportions in the last thirty years and has ruined the family lives of any family that has been unfortunate to have a child so afflicted. Worse than that the traditional medical profession doesn’t have any reasonable answers to solving the problem and leaves these poor families to twist in the wind as they frustratingly go from clinic to clinic looking for answers that aren’t easily forthcoming.

Physicians that do have answers and semi-answers are usually in the “Integrative or Alternative Medicine” style of physicians and aren’t part of the third party payer Insurance world and create expenses that very quickly overwhelm the finances of these afflicted families.

Human nature being what it is, these families usu­ally start seeking answers on their own and very quickly discover that traditional medicine isn’t in the Dr. Marcus Welby/Florence Nightingale model and is trapped within the confines of Pharmaceutical mandates which makes sure that drugs, drugs and more drugs are the only prime answer to any types of problems that come along. This creates first fear for their children, than anger over the state of affairs and eventually a very determined attitude to discover the truth of what’s causing this affliction to their children and than a powerful quest to find the answers on their own.

There is an article in this issue of Explore by Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt MD regarding his very complete method of treating Autism. This one article can become the chapter headings for the definitive textbook on the treatment of this horrible disease. Very few physicians will ever read this article and a great majority of traditional physicians that do read it will discount its wisdom as “voodoo” medicine. Traditional medicine has almost completely discounted the wisdom of Integrative care and when this is discovered by the Autistic families it only angers and scares them further.

As time goes by eventually these families tend to seek each other out and band together in associations and clubs some of which become incorporated as founda­tions and societies.

With the paucity of traditional physicians knowledge­able in treating autistic children, these families tend to form a hierarchy within these associations and leaders emerge as spokespeople to both seek out information on the latest tidbit of information and then to both share and/or control this information among the rest of the group and other similar groups.

One cannot blame these leaders for after all they still need to live 24 hours a day with their autistic child but most of them literally begin to know much more information about this disease and find themselves quite unintentionally in most cases in positions of political influence and power.

Many of the leaders have had breakthrough suc­cesses with their children as in fact Autism is treatable. However the political capital of both the leaders and the groups they represent grow exponentially when a signifi­cant number of the children related to these groups have significant improvements. The knowledge of how to make even the slightest improvement in Autistic health becomes a very powerful political force and creates a patient group to be dealt with.

These groups both become the referral source for new families coming along and they end up controlling the healthcare practices of those physicians who agree to care for the patients according to the dictates of the will of these groups.

In the highest incarnation of this phenomena, semi­nars are created by these lay groups and lay leaders to teach both patients and physicians what to do and why, all with the understanding that the groups knowledge is paramount and that the control of treating Autism belongs to them because the medical profession has abdi­cated their rightful position of the legitimate profession of the practice of medicine.

These phenomena may be ubiquitous within the medical profession but it brings to mind what hap­pened in the 1930’s when doctors charged 50 cents for office calls (or a freshly killed chicken) and when the needs for hospital services occurred unless they were in a big city or in close proximity to religious orders there simply were no hospitals available to over 80% of the US population.

Civic groups arose to “help out the doctors” to organize rural hospitals as they were “too busy” tending to the ill patients and these groups organized the construction of community hospital centers and put together “societies” to sell the first insurance programs to finance the costs of these community hospitals. These societies were called Blue Cross organizations.

Doctors were told “you guys are too busy to organize and administer hospitals”, let us do it in the interest of “community” and you can have the clean workshops you need to practice your profession. Doctors saw no problem as even though Hospitals were “their workshops” they were in fact too busy to tend to this task and were glad to see others do it for them.

Several years later, the final turning point in the long term demise of the free practice of medicine occurred when these same groups noted that Physicians costs also needed “financing” and thus was born Blue Shield. It only took another 30 years before Medicare and Medicaid came along but the rest is history.

What you might be asking does the Politics of Autism have to do with the creation of the third party insurance system. It has a lot to do with it.

Whenever the professional practice of Medicine “drops the ball” and cannot deal with issues that it should right­fully be dealing with, than simple human nature kicks in and solutions come along that only “partially” solve the problem but creates situations where non trained individuals step into a void, takes over and does the best that it can. Unfortunately, by not being trained in the first place these solutions create other problems even though the solutions seem appropriate to begin with.

Just like the Medical Profession should be controlling its own financing instead of being under the control of the third part system, the treatment of autism should be being dealt with by the same medical profession who should be reading Dr. Klinghardt’s article and teaching its peers how to do what the article says. 

Who said that unless we learn our lessons we are des­tined to repeat our mistakes?

The Body's Immune System

Our immune system is our “Perfect Physician”. It has the innate ability to recognize truly foreign toxic substance, develop antibodies against those substances and establish a permanent and total “cure” against those substances as they are either destroyed or eliminated.

Once exposed to a foreign substance and successfully ridding our system of the substance, the immune system develops a “memory” of what it did and for the rest of that person’s life there is “immunity to the original substance so that the problem can never happen again.

The above statement applies to a normally functioning immune system. However there can be defects in the system and these defects is the cause of most of our illnesses. These defects fall in several broad categories.

1. The immune system cannot successfully make antibodies against the substance.
2. The immunity memory function either isn’t created or is erased.
3. The immune system mistakenly recognizes parts of the body as foreign and makes antibodies against us. This is known as an “auto‐immune” problem.
4. The created antibodies are mistakenly recognized as foreign and the immune system makes additional antibodies trying to eliminate something that was originally created to help us. This is the most common problem and is the basis of most of our inflammatory diseases such as allergies, arthritis, atherosclerosis and cancer to name a few.

Without going into a full blown textbook explanation of the immune system we need to point out that our creator developed some controllable biological on/off switches that we can use to shut down or actually turn back on, those immune processes that are either desirable or undesirable depending on the circumstances.

These “switches” are called “To” helper and “Ts” suppressor Lymphocytes. The T‐helper lymphocytes further develop intoTh1 and Th2 Lymphocytes and under correct circumstances become Th3 lymphocytes, which help direct the cleaning of the Matrix space as, mentioned above.

A brief explanation of immune function is necessary to explain how these switches work.

Cells called Antigen presenting cells (APCs) originally identify foreign substances as foreign. These APCs than deliver the message of alarm to either a T Helper or a T Suppressor Lymphocyte which transfer the message to a B Lymphocyte.

B Lymphocytes are the cells that make the Antibodies.

If a T Helper Lymphocyte delivers the message, the B Lymphocyte is turned “ON” and antibodies are produced.

If a T Suppressor Lymphocyte delivers the message the B Lymphocyte is turned “OFF” and antibody production stops.

Helpers turn ON and Suppressors turn OFF.

Obviously is a situation 1 or 2 where we want antibody production we want that message going via the T Helper Lymphocytes and in a situation 3 or 4 where we want to stop antibody production we want the message delivered via the T suppressor Lymphocytes.

What then determines which T Lymphocyte gets to deliver the message?

The Concentration or Dilution of the original foreign substance determines where the macrophage takes the original message.

Very Very High Concentration and very very low dilutions will selectively go to the T Suppressor. Lymphocytes shutting down the B cells BUT all of the mid‐range dilutions in between very low and very high selectively go to T Helper Lymphocytes turning B Cell Antibody production.

In more practical terms of a food allergy, if a person gets an asthma attack from drinking milk because of antibody production against milk triggering cells that produce histamine to shut down lung function (an example of situation 4 above) we can introduce several drops of diluted milk ( a very very low dilution) or a gallon ( a very very high concentration) (obviously impractical to use a gallon) of milk and effectively connect with T Suppressors which will shut down the milk B Cells and stop the asthma A simple glass of milk ( a mid‐range amount) will connect with T Helpers and turn on the B Cells and start the asthma! A perfect example of situation 4.

An example of wanting to turn on B Cells via T Helper Lymphocytes would be unwelcome infections. WE would never want our Endobiont to become the form of the measles virus. Therefore we would want a mid range amount of measles virus to cause a “memory” in clone of T Helper Lymphocytes and Associated B Lymphocytes to always make antibodies against measles and not be turned off. This is a perfect example of situation 1.

An Example of Situation 2 is the current scourge of humanity called the AIDS virus Aids Virus kills T Helper Lymphocytes so that needed B Cells can NEVER BE TURNED ON.

The key to this chapter is that many of our diseases can be “cured” by finding ways to turn off unwanted antibody production of situations 3 and 4 and that we have a way to do this by introducing small dilutions of substances that shut down the B Lymphocytes that are producing these undesirable antibodies.

We have a “switch” and all that is required is to find the substance causing the problem and the correct dilution to do the job.

T helper lymphocytes become Th1 cells and also alternatively Th2cells. Each of these cell types produce cell signaling substances called Cytokines. The alternation between the two types of cytokines helps cleanse the Matrix. During times of disease the alternation gets STUCK as either a Th1 or a Th2 state and only the production of the cytokine TGF-b can break through this Immunological logjam.

One of the ways to do this is for the T Helper Lymphocytes to become a Th3 cell. (Th3 cells can produce TGF‐b!)

Enter Homeopathy and Homotoxicology!

IV Therapy to Boost Health & Healing

Integrative Medicine focuses on the treatment of the whole person, not just the disease. It consists of looking at the patient as a whole – mind, body and spirit – combining conventional Western medicine with alternative health care compliments treatments such as Homeopathy and Homotoxicology.  

One of the special treatments is Intravenous Detoxing Therapy. IV Therapy boosts immunities which is great for cold & flu prevention and can accelerate healing and assist in healing acute illnesses.

Meyers Cocktail

We are indebted to Dr. Meyer for his formula of detoxification that based on the patients weight includes: Vitamin C, four of the good Vitamin Bs and Magnesium. This infusion of ingredients in 250cc of fluid makes patients rapidly feel better with infections of all types, environmental pollution and many other problems related to muscular aches and strains. We very commonly combine with important treatment with a blood Isode added to the infusion and in a small bottle of drops to take home afterward.

JW Meyer Cocktail

The famed Dr. Jonathan Wright uses high doses Selenium, Adenosine Monophosphate (AMP) and Adrenocortical extract as a remedy to treat viruses. We have added these ingredients to our already popular Meyer cocktail and have named the mixture in Dr. Wright’s honor. It is an excellent remedy for antiviral care and we use it by alternation the IV with high dose Vitamin C IV that is converted to Hydrogen Peroxide in the Intercellular setting.

Hydrogen Peroxide IV Therapy or High Dose Vitamin C IV

Hydrogen Peroxide given in small safe amounts in an IV solution is a way to oxygenating our tissues. Many foreign chemicals and germs cannot live in the presence of oxygen and this therapy is useful for the following problems; Acute Pulmonary infections including Influenza, Chronic lung disease including Emphysema, bronchitis, Bronchiectasis, Allergic Reactions Asthma, Environmental Sensitivity, Acute and Chronic Pain, EBV CMV, Herpes, Hepatitis, Cerebral Vascular, Alzheimer’s, Systemic  Candidasis, Diabetes Mellitus Type II, Chronic Post Herpetic Neuralgia.

HIGH DOSE VITAMIN C SERVES THE SAME PURPOSE AS IT CONVERTS TO HYDROGEN PEROXIDE IN THE INTERELLULAR SETTING.

Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation

This is the SECRET of St. Petersburg Russia. Many of us remember from history that during WWII the Nazis had St. Petersburg surrounded for 18 months with no way of getting food and medicine to the 2 million people under siege. Without antibiotics many people would die. However, the Russian Doctors knew that Ultraviolet radiation of blood would make the blood cells into little “Pac‐Men” to devour germs and aid the body’s immune system to fighting and warding off infections. We do this procedure by drawing 50cc of blood from the vein in the elbow ceased and allowing it to pass before a special ultra violet light. The same blood is re-injected back into the vein while again passing the light without any of the blood leaving the tubing system so that it remains sterile. The patient than immediately is given either a Meyer Cocktail or a High Dose Vitamin C IV.

EDTA Chelation - Chelation removes many dangerous metals from the body. EDTA helps remove lead and those metals that can cause Cholesterol to become INFECTED and VULNERABLE and cause heart damage. Approximately 20 different metals are removed by EDTA (the main exception is Mercury).

Super C & Detox C IV's - These are high content Vitamin C IV's used in both Mercury elimination treatment and Virus Elimination therapy. 

Brodie IV - This is an IV with massive nutritional ingredients useful in cancer patient nutrition. 

Alpha Lipoic Acid IV Solution  - When added to an IV, helps cleanse the liver and also to desensitize cell walls to Insulin, which can help in weight loss.

Using Themograms in Breast Cancer Screenings

Perhaps the most well known use for Thermograms is the early detection of Breast Cancer. When used with other procedures the best possible evaluation of breast health is made. This non-invasive test is a valuable procedure for alerting your Doctor to the possibility of underlying breast disease.

Areas of the body where tumors are growing are undergoing angioneogenesis or the growth of new blood vessels, to feed a growing tumor. This extra blood flow will show up as warm spot on the image with certain typical features. Typically these warm spots will show up as much as 18 months before either a manual exam or a mammogram will detect an abnormality. The faster a malignant tumor grows, the more Infrared radiation it generates. For younger women in particular, results from Thermographic screening can lead to earlier detection and ultimately, longer life.

In the instance where a breast abnormality is detected, it is still considered medically appropriate to obtain a mammogram as well and if something is found to take all appropriate traditional care up to and including surgery. But, in the instance where Thermography detects something and a physical exam and Mammography is negative the patient has been given a valuable head start to go forward with a vigorous detoxification and Integrative treatment program to stop processes that will result in a malignancy later on. A negative Thermogram in the absence of detectible physical findings while not a

100% certainty (nothing in medicine is 100% certain) can give a woman at risk a strong degree of reassurance that things are going very well.

Doctors do not yet know how to prevent breast cancer. However, you can increase your chances of detecting breast cancer in its earliest stages by understanding the need for, and participating in, an early detection program.

Current Early Detection Guidelines

There may ultimately be a single method for the early detection of breast cancer but until then, using a combination of methods will increase your chances of detecting cancer in an early stage. These methods include:

• Mammography for all women who are aged 40 or older
• Regular Thermographic screening for women of all ages
• A regular breast examination by a health professional
• Monthly breast self-examination
• Personal awareness for changes in the breasts
• Readiness to discuss quickly any such changes with a doctor
• These guidelines should be considered along with your background and medical history.
• Breast cancers tend to grow significantly faster in younger women under 50:

AVERAGE AGE and TUMOR DOUBLING TIME
Under 50 80 days
Age 50-70   157 days
Over Age 70   188 days

Source: Cancer 71:3547-3551, 1993

Only about 20% of biopsied breast lumps are cancerous. If cancer is found early, there are choices for treatment.

With prompt treatment, the outlook is good. In fact, most women treated for early breast cancer will be free from breast cancer for the rest of their lives.

What is a Thermogram?

Thermogram imaging has been around in the medical world for many years. It relies on computerized interpretations of photographic images from a video type camera that measures the temperature of skin surfaces and shows it as a distinct color on the screen or printout. Colder areas show up as shades of blue and warmer areas show up as shades of red with all of the associates 256 shades of the color spectrum in between as temperatures vary by minute amounts of degrees of heat.

The general theory is that our autonomic nervous system controls blood circulation and therefore associated body heat into areas on the skin surface dependent upon which physiological processes are occurring beneath the surface in the tissues and organs of the body.

If for instance nerves are physically being pinched in the spine as they exit between the vertebrae the areas supplied by those nerves will be a normal and initially appear cool and eventually become inflamed and appear warm. A proficient chiropractor in conjunction with all of the other proper exam techniques will be able to know how to apply treatment modalities to return the affected area to proper balance and promote healing.

If for instance blood vessels are clogged with Atherosclerosis the areas supplied by those vessels will feel cold to the patient and appear cold on the Thermogram image. The progress of Chelation Therapy will be able to be followed with serial Thermographic studies with the knowledge that the atherosclerotic plaques don’t dissolve but the circulation improve as the heavy metals are eliminated.

It is well known that Correct Homeopathic remedies balance the Autonomic Nervous system. There are areas of the skin where the effects of an appropriate remedy can be seen almost immediately. In certain critical instances the Thermogram can be used to verify the choice of a correct remedy and act as a backup tool to our other office computer systems.

Cold vs Flu Symptoms Video and Best Cold And Flu Prevention Treatment

Dr Shelton describes the difference between Flu and Cold Symptoms and how Homeopathy can be beneficial in treating and preventing the Flu.

According to the CDC, Cold vs. Flu is defined as follows:

What is the difference between a cold and the flu?

The flu and the common cold are both respiratory illnesses but they are caused by different viruses. Because these two types of illnesses have similar flu-like symptoms, it can be difficult to tell the difference between them based on symptoms alone. In general, the flu is worse than the common cold, and symptoms such as fever, body aches, extreme tiredness, and dry cough are more common and intense. Colds are usually milder than the flu. People with colds are more likely to have a runny or stuffy nose. Colds generally do not result in serious health problems, such as pneumonia, bacterial infections, or hospitalizations.

How can you tell the difference between a cold and the flu?

Because colds and flu share many symptoms, it can be difficult (or even impossible) to tell the difference between them based on symptoms alone. Special tests that usually must be done within the first few days of illness can be carried out, when needed to tell if a person has the flu.

What are the symptoms of the flu versus the symptoms of a cold?

In general, the flu is worse than the common cold, and symptoms such as fever, body aches, extreme tiredness, and dry cough are more common and intense. Colds are usually milder than the flu. People with colds are more likely to have a runny or stuffy nose. Colds generally do not result in serious health problems, such as pneumonia, bacterial infections, or hospitalizations.

For those with questions on the Swine Flu, here is Wikipedia' definition

Swine influenza (also called swine flu, hog flu, and pig flu) is an infection by any one of several types of swine influenza virus. Swine influenza virus (SIV) is any strain of the influenza family of viruses that is endemic in pigs.^[2] As of 2009, the known SIV strains include influenza C and the subtypes of influenza A known as H1N1, H1N2, H3N1, H3N2, and H2N3.

Swine influenza virus is common throughout pig populations worldwide. Transmission of the virus from pigs to humans is not common and does not always lead to human influenza, often resulting only in the production of antibodies in the blood. If transmission does cause human influenza, it is called zoonotic swine flu. People with regular exposure to pigs are at increased risk of swine flu infection. The meat of an infected animal poses no risk of infection when properly cooked.

During the mid-20th century, identification of influenza subtypes became possible, allowing accurate diagnosis of transmission to humans. Since then, only 50 such transmissions have been confirmed. These strains of swine flu rarely pass from human to human. Symptoms of zoonotic swine flu in humans are similar to those of influenza and of influenza-like illness in general, namely chills, fever, sore throat, muscle pains, severe headache, coughing, weakness and general discomfort.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Holistic Medicine and Natural Relief

Hi Dr. Shelton, 

Here is the written report I promised to submit one week after I started my treatment program. When I came to your office my symptoms were:

• Chronic fatigue - I would wake up not refreshed and go about my day on sheer determination. Often I would experience lows in energy. I was a bit apathetic- not my usual self.

• Mental fatigue – I had to push myself to focus to continue with my daily tasks

For the last 2 weeks before I saw Dr. Shelton I did not sleep well during the night and had problems falling asleep and to clear my mind.

• Bloating was another issue, although I am careful of what I eat or how I combine foods
• I had dumb toothaches, very unpleasant but bearable, one tooth law in the left , one tooth upper right
• Skin rashes on my face near the location of the teeth.
• Severe backache- neck and shoulders and I always feel the need to stretch or the rub my lower back.
• Mood swings
• Night sweats
• Irregular bowel movements- awkward consistency

Since I stared the protocol as Dr. Shelton prescribed it, I feel great! And I mean GREAT.

• Toothaches are gone
• Back, neck and shoulders pain is gone
• Regular bowel movements
• I HAVE TONS OF ENERGY - my typical “higher’ self”
• I am in a great mood- considering buying a house And a car!

Bloating is gone, but I am a bit sensitive towards spicy foods right now- which actually should be the norm. Prior to our meeting I felt the weird need to gobble down a bottle of hot sauce like Tabasco without a problem. I just needed the heat. Now it irritates me.

• Skin rashes –GONE
• Chronic fatigue- GONE

I sleep like a baby – I go to bed at 11.30 and wake up at 7 am and I FEEL like dancing- exercising again AND I follow through and boy, don’t I feel good! I am focused and purposeful and active I really feel great! It is amazing how such a ‘simple’ treatment can fix so many things!

Absolutely effective- time and cost!!!!

Thank you so much,
