Broccoli sprouts: a simple way to ameliorate a myriad of diseases?

May 29, 2021 by admin Leave a Comment

“We and many others around the world, have developed an enormous body of laboratory and pre-clinical data, and a burgeoning body of clinical evidence addressing the potential that sulforaphane has, not only in the prevention of environmental carcinogenesis, but in the prevention or amelioration of a very large, diverse, and seemingly unrelated series of conditions…[that] include autism spectrum disorder (ASD), schizophrenia, bacterial and viral infections, prostate, lung, breast, skin, and head and neck cancers, osteoarthritis, type 2 diabetes, sickle cell disease, fatty liver, and asthma.” Read more here…

The Best Offense is a Good Defense

April 19, 2021 by admin Leave a Comment

Loved the discussion with Dr. William Li on the Model Health Show podcast! Dr. Li lays out 5 key health defense systems that define optimal health. As always, Shawn Stevenson’s program is full of actionable items that we can take to improve our health right now. By the way, Dr. Li specifically mentions how shoring up our defense systems helps fight back against long COVID syndrome.

So here’s one tip to strengthen each health defense system as recommended by Dr. Li:

1)Angiogenesis: growth of new blood vessels to improve your circulation

  • Tip: Eat 2 fresh fruits and 3 vegetables daily. Optimize this practice by including fruit peel in your fruit intake. A great way to increase fruit peel is by consuming dried fruit if your system can handle the sugar.

2) Boost your Stem Cells

  • Tip: Dark chocolate (80% or higher) can double the number of stem cells in your blood stream

3) Healthy Microbiome

  • Tip: Kiwi’s high fiber content. Eating 1 kiwi per day will “quickly start to change the number of your healthy gut bacteria.”

4) DNA self-repair

  • Tip: Sunflower seeds slow down the degradation of DNA

5) Healthy immune system

  • Tip: consume broccoli sprouts which contain 100x the immune-supporting compound called sulforaphane found in mature broccoli

Always a wealth of great info on the Model Health Show. Dr. William Li’s book is called Eat to Beat Disease: The New Science of How Your Body can Heal Itself

Another COVID treatment your doctor may not know about

March 9, 2021 by admin Leave a Comment

Did you see 60 Minutes on Sunday (March 7, 2021)? Dr. Lenze discussed his study on a generic, cheap medicine that was shown to be effective as a treatment for COVID-19. The medicine is fluvoxamine, an antidepressant that may be useful as a repurposed medicine. The problem is, it got very little press and few doctors know about it.

The study involved 152 participants from April through August of 2020 who were randomly assigned to receive either 100 mg fluvoxamine or placebo 3 times daily for 15 days. Clinical deterioration (defined as shortness of breath, hospitalization for SOB, pneumonia or oxygen saturation of less than 92% on room air) occurred in 0 of the 80 patients in the fluvoxamine group, but in 6 of 72 patients in the placebo group. It’s a small study, but it did meet criteria for clinical significance. A larger study is currently underway and may be released as soon as April 2021.

Other treatments and preventive therapies also have mounting research studies behind them. Ivermectin, as used in the I-MASK protocol created by Dr. Paul Marik is an example. I-MASK also incorporates vitamin D. Vitamin D has numerous studies showing its effectiveness for prevention and newer studies finding it to be an effective treatment for COVID-19.

Your doctor may not know about these therapies to offer them to you. Therefore, links have been included here for you to find out more information and to share with your doctor.
