Entry for June 09, 2006

Woke up this morning and I didn’t feel as plugged up so maybe the new toothbrush is working?

Today I thought I’d try something new. I’ll start the day with 300 mg of Niacin instead of splitting it up at the end of the day. I take the rest of my vitamins: B Complex, Zinc, Calcium/Magnesium, Acidophilus and Vitamin C.

Just after I get into work, I start having stomach cramps and a bit later I have diarrhea. I’ve read about the high doses of Niacin and it’s supposed to be safe. It’s the only thing that I’ve done differently. I had an apple for breakfast and I do that every morning.

After some reading, an upset stomach and diarrhea are both symptoms of a high dose of Niacin so I won’t try that again. 300 mg is what the naturopath prescribed so I didn’t really do anything wrong. I just took it all at once. It also recommended taking Niacin with a meal. Maybe an apple wasn’t enough?

I’m not a medical doctor but a person who has a great interest in health. I don’t give medical advice but I have an opinion. I’m an independent researcher who does research in the hope of finding health answers for myself that may possibly help other people. I think for myself rather than rely on what doctors have memorized. That’s also what I believe others should do, think for themselves, giving due respect to others.

My opinions are based on my life experience and my research. Your life experience may differ.

Dr. Michael F. Holick MD

“Can you imagine what would happen if a drug company came out with a single pill that reduces the risk of cancer, heart attack, stroke, osteoporosis, PMS, SAD, and various autoimmune disorders? There would be a media frenzy the likes of which has never been seen before! Well, guess what? Such a drug exists … it is the sun.”
Dr. Bernard Jensen

"Unless we know and use foods that have the right chemical elements needed to sustain health, we are hopelessly unable to resist disease."
Dr. Michael Klaper MD

"It's not natural for humans to drink cow's milk. Humans milk is for humans. Cow's milk is for calves. You have no more need of cow's milk than you do rats milk, horses milk or elephant's milk. Cow's milk is a high fat fluid exquisitely designed to turn a 65 lb baby calf into a 400 lb cow. That's what cow's milk is for!"
Dr. David Bridgman

"Of all the people I test for allergies, 99.9% so far show severe sensitivity to any microwaved food".
Dr. Otto H. Warburg in 1924

"Cancer, above all other diseases, has countless secondary causes. But, even for cancer, there is only one prime cause. Summarized in a few words, the prime cause of cancer is the replacement of the respiration of oxygen in normal body cells by a fermentation of sugar."
The Analyst

"Health problems rarely occur in isolation or for obvious reasons. Instead of simply guessing at what might be wrong, discover what is really going on inside your body based on the many clues it is giving."
Dr. Mercola

"Breast milk contains virtually all of the nutrients that an infant needs except for Vitamin D...That's because infants weren't designed to swallow the vitamin D, they were designed to have sun on their skin."
Bill Maher

"It was always my opinion that food, at least the food we eat in this country, was at least as bad for your health as smoking. And now, the statistics pretty much back me up on that."
Bill Maher

"The human body doesn't get sick for no reason...90% of why people are sick, is because they eat shit."
Bill Maher

"Perfectly healthly people have come down with the swine flu... Perfectly healthy by whose standards? Hospitals serve Jello. Okay? To me that says nobody understands what makes people healthy. Gelatin and sugar. If you are feeding someone sugar who you are trying to nurse back to health... I don't trust you."

"Essential vitamin, mineral, and amino acid deficiencies frequently go undiagnosed in conventional medicine because conventional testing methods look for pathology—meaning the tests only check for chronic conditions that are present, and NOT for the precursors that lead to illness." -Web site
Dr. Riina Bray

"I learned a long time ago that preventive medicine is a much healthier approach than waiting to develop a treatment strategy once the threat has been introduced, be it a disease or a chemical contaminant."
Wendy Mesley

“I’ve always been a health nut and I got cancer. I knew there had to be something else. We’re not told a lot about what causes cancer in things we encounter every day. But some people do know, and ideally, it’s the right to not be contaminated.”
Dr. Bernard Jenson

"Every disease is a sign of a chemical shortage in the body. All of these chemical elements are in our foods but we don't know what a proper diet is. If our patients do not improve, we are not using the right foods to treat them. Diseases are the end result of chemically deficient organs in the body that are not functioning properly."
Bill Cameron

"In general, any treatment that does not fall within the traditional, proven, conventional canon is treated with great suspicion or simply dismissed."
Dr. Mercola

"Avoid getting sucked into the hype that sunlight is dangerous. It is only dangerous if you are clueless about fat nutrition, which most medical doctors are."
Augusto Odone

When he was diagnosed, Lorenzo's father Augusto was desperate. "I was terrorised, I was shocked. Well, it's a death sentence. "So I asked the doctor if I could read the medical papers. He said: 'Don't bother, you won't understand them'."
Bill Maher

"If you believe you need all the pills and drugs the pharmaceutical industry says you do -- then you're already on drugs."
Andrew Taylor Still

"To Find Health Should Be the Object of the Doctor. Anyone Can Find Disease."
Bill Cameron

"The throat specialist interpreted my problem as tension, a benign blockage of the throat. A surgical resident said it was a fibrous growth of some sort, nothing to worry about, and scheduled a test two months away. These missed diagnoses are hard to justify. Difficulty swallowing is one of esophageal cancer's more obvious symptoms. It's half a year from those early symptoms until the surgeon leans into my face and tells me I have advanced, aggressive cancer."
Thomas Edison

"The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patient in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease"
