Natural Response – Seizure solutions August 1, 2004
I was wondering if you had any suggestions on seizures? My wife had a stroke three years ago and they claim the seizure she had in October was a result of the stroke. She has tried five or six different medications, and she cannot handle any of them. They tell me she cannot drive unless she is on medication, so I am at a loss as to what to do.
Don’t just swap cancer risks—lower them August 1, 2004
With medical journals awash in fish oil and disease prevention data, I can’t understand why researchers keep churning out data on aspirin and disease prevention-especially since aspirin’s patents expired in the early 1900s and no single company stands to make any substantial profits from it. Researchers made their latest pro-aspirin splash in the May 26 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association, with an article boasting aspirin’s supposed breast cancer preventing ability.
1 program, 2 months, lasting relief—from almost any symptoms: And the older you are, the better it works July 1, 2004
There’s a program we use at the Tahoma Clinic that helps a lot of the patients we see-usually in just about two months, and no matter what their symptoms are. And unlike many other treatment programs, which work better if you’re younger, the percentage helped with this program increases with age: The older you are, the more likely it is to help. It’s nothing flashy or high-tech. In fact, you might consider it a little boring-at least until you learn what it can do for you and your health.
Clinical Tip 126 – Get all the benefits of aspirin-without the aspirin! June 1, 2004
Every week at the Tahoma Clinic I see one or two people who’ve been told by their doctor, or convinced by advertising, to take aspirin every day to reduce their risk of heart attack. I always advise a switch to a safer, more effective alternative but am frequently asked: “Is aspirin really that bad? It’s a lot easier!” It may be easier, but, yes, it really is that bad: Aspirin is a formerly patented molecule, never found in human bodies or nature before the 1890s, so any good it may do will inevitably be offset by unwanted side effects.
Should you go low-carb? June 1, 2004
A few months ago, my local newspaper, the Tacoma News Tribune, devoted three full pages of its Sunday edition to the “low-carb craze.” Three pages may not sound like much, but the News Tribune hasn’t devoted that much space to anything since the 9/11 disaster. So, needless to say, it caught my attention. The article did contain some useful information, but, overall, it was more nonsense than not. So it certainly seems like this topic could use a little clarification.
Natural Response – Learning not to live with blood clots February 1, 2004
Q: “Thank you for the help you gave me through your newsletter. I had a blood clot in my leg, from groin to ankle…Eight doctors here looked at my ultrasound and said they could not dissolve the clot…
Natural Response – Don’t forget the fish oil! February 1, 2004
Q: I was disappointed that your articles on fish oil have made no mention, either positive or negative, of the EPA/DHA fish oil capsules taken by many of us, which concentrate the omega 3s, thus requiring us to take much less fish oil.

Clinical Tip 119 – Ignore your TV: It’s giving you bad health advice! January 1, 2004
Every time I turn on my TV or radio, I’m shocked by the bad health advice coming at me from every angle. Perhaps the worst, or at least the most pervasive, is the ridiculous idea that taking aspirin every day is the best way to prevent heart attacks.
Striking out: Protecting profits over people October 1, 2003
Ever since that Orioles’ pitcher died in spring training, the cries have gotten louder and more steady. But the whole Ephedra fiasco reminds me of grade school, when the teacher kept the whole class in at recess because one kid misbehaved. If you dig a little deeper into all the hyped-up headlines, you find that most of the problems with Ephedra happened when someone took way too much of it–far beyond the label recommendation.

Your doctor could be ignoring the best treatments available-and not even know it! September 1, 2003

Natural Response – The bypass benefit of this natural clotbuster August 1, 2003
Q: …Clot formation is a fact of life following heart bypass surgery. The mortality statistics are grim, the choice of maintenance medications prescribed for bypass patients are dangerous, and in many cases, ineffective as well. The current mainstream medical treatment status following heart surgery can be summarized as unsatisfactory…
Say goodbye to most arthritis pain for good in eight steps-or less April 1, 2003
Last month, you read about different ways to protect your heart-a topic not making many headlines these days, but one that’s still critical to your health. This month, I’ve chosen another topic that you’re also not hearing much about lately (except in drug ads), even though it probably affects many of you on a daily basis: arthritis.
Fish oil and 33 other natural secrets to tackle all your heart’s risks March 1, 2003
High cholesterol is hardly news these days. The media, the patent medicine industry, and even the federal government (“los Federales”) have all poured a great deal of time, energy, and money into “educating” us Average Joes on the dangers of high cholesterol. Of course, they’ve also assured us that the countless patent cholesterol-lowering medications and the National Cholesterol Education Program are pretty much all we need to arm ourselves in the war against heart disease.

Clinical Tip 110 – Get rid of menstrual cramps for good February 1, 2003
Women come in to the Tahoma Clinic nearly every day and tell me that they’ve taken enough Midol® and Advil® every month to relieve their menstrual cramps to last a lifetime. And I’ve gotten more than one look of surprise when I tell them that they can prevent the cramps in the first place by taking fish oil and improving their omega-3 fatty acid intake. It’s really that simple. Honestly, I wouldn’t joke about something like this–not when I’ve seen the agony some women experience every month.
The “original human diet” secret to erasing cancer, diabetes, obesity, and more January 1, 2003
We’ve come a long way since the hunter-gatherer days, and I’m not saying that all of the changes are bad-or that we should all start running around in loin-cloths, stalking and killing our dinners. Nevertheless, that is how our bodies are designed to be nourished. So this month I thought I’d show you how to get “back to basics” with a modern adaptation of this health-promoting, historic diet.
Breast cancer prevention straight from the grocery store: Stop the most feared disease among women from happening to you December 1, 2002
It’s no wonder that breast cancer is the biggest fear of so many women. All you hear about these days are the dismal odds: Currently, one in eight women-that’s 17 million-is expected to be diagnosed with the disease. And the treatment options are nothing short of barbaric: surgery that leaves you disfigured, radiation that leaves you swollen and tender, and chemotherapy that leaves you weak, bald, and nauseous.
Could one bottle in your medicine cabinet hold the healing secrets for everything from cysts to toenail fungus? November 1, 2002
Can you imagine drinking dirty, contaminated water right from a river? In most cases, you’d have a lot more to worry about than a case of infamous “Montezuma’s revenge.” Depending on what part of the world the water is in, it could be infested with all sorts of disease-triggering bacteria (cholera comes to mind, but that’s just one example). But despite all this danger, I have a friend, a retired Indian physician, who likely drank contaminated water for 30 years while he traveled from village to village in Africa-and he never got sick once. All he did was add a few drops of a common solution (after straining the sediment and debris through a cheesecloth, of course) two or three minutes before he drank it.
Natural Response: Coumadin may be here to stay, but you can avoid taking it with safe, natural, blood-thinning alternatives October 1, 2002
Q: I have been a subscriber to your newsletter for many years, and now I find myself in a quandry. I am 62 and have been diagnosed with chronic atrial fibrillation. I am aware of my increased risk of stroke and have been taking a baby asprin daily along with vitamin E, ginko biloba, lecithin, fish oil and garlic supplements to keep my blood thin.
Conquer COPD and breathe easier naturally—without spending your future attached to an oxygen tank! August 1, 2002
Erwin stands out in my memory because when he first came to my clinic, he looked blue. Not a “down in the dumps” metaphorical blue-he was literally blue (well, bluish-toned). It became obvious rather quickly, though, that Erwin’s unusual skin tone was only one part of a much bigger problem: Erwin was struggling for each and every breath he took. He had been diagnosed with emphysema and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD (at least, that’s what it’s been called since the 1960s; in the past few years conventional docs have started calling it chronic obstructive lung disease, or COLD).
